Shopping by Super League clubs went up a notch on the 2014/2015 transfer market as they spent 108 million euros ($121.2 million) on players.

The money spent on transfers of Chinese top-flight clubs beat most of the top leagues in the world, standing only second to the English Premier League, according to statistics released by Germany's Transfer Market on Friday when the Chinese winter transfer window closed.

The spending brought in 47 foreign players and saw 62 Chinese players move to new clubs. It surpassed last year's record of 68.72 million euros and doubled the number of foreign names in the league.
