Threat of FFP breach weighed down Championship January spending

Fulham

Getty Images | Fulham were this window's biggest spenders with expenditures of £24 million. It cost them £10.6 million to make their loan deal of Ivan Cavaleiro (pictured) permanent.

The spending this winter was the second lowest of the past five January transfer windows.

Many clubs are on the brink of breaching the EFL's Financial Fair Play regulations and therefore cannot spend excessively.

Fulham, appearing to go against the trend, accounted for 67 per cent of the league's total spending.
