Doesn't have that Premier League premium. It's a lot more expensive for english teams to buy players because they know the clubs have the money to pay it. 

James costing Bayern 45 million whereas it would cost a team like City 70 million+. 

Didn't Real buy him for 70m+ though? Wasn't Higuain to Juve around 70m as well?

So, maybe not just a Premier League premium. Good deal for Bayern though!

I think it was closer to 90.

Anyway Juve have done well, I remember some seasons ago they built one of the most competitive squads in europe and they didn't have to pay much.

Vidal was like 12m, Pirlo and Pogba free, and I don't remember Tevez but I guess he was pretty cheap when they got him
