Sky Sports claim how much Alan Shearer would be worth if signed in 2018 - Do you agree?

According to a recent piece by Sky Sports, Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer would cost £125m if his £15m transfer back in 1996 was inflated to present-day prices in 2018.

This comes from a study published by TotallyMoney - with the report "converting every transfer fee since 1992 into current market values - factoring the inflation of players' fees from seasonal averages".

They also claim that record signing Michael Owen - who cost us £17m back in 2005 - would be worth a staggering £76m today; showing just how little ambition we now show given we've NEVER even spent more than £15m thirteen years on from that transfer.

Here's what they claim to be the top 15  Premier League signings since 1992 in today's money:

The study claims that Andriy Shevchenko - signed by Chelsea from AC Milan for £29.4m - would be the most expensive player in Premier League history if this fee (from 2006) was inflated to present-day prices.

Do you agree with this?
