$730m (€622m) was the sum spent by French clubs on (men's) international transfers between 01/06 and 02/09/2025 (including the special window from 01 to 10/06/2025 introduced for the Club World Cup), announced FIFA on 03/09/2025.

This total, which represents the arrival of 370 players, accounts for 7.5% of the $9.76bn (€8.34bn) spent worldwide, making France by the world's third biggest buyer, after England with $3.19bn (€2.72bn) spent (32.7% of the total) and Germany with $980m (€835.5m) spent (around 10% of the total), according to figures from the International Federation.
