It is not always about how much you spend on a player, so judging recruitment off a potential transfer budget is not the best way of going about things.

Just look at Fabian Schar. He was brought in for a [reported](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fabian-schar/profil/spieler/135343)£3.6m and has been a rock solid defender for the club in his time in England so far, which shows that you can find value in the market without spending massive amounts of money.
