How CA Osasuna have spent in the transfer market
CA Osasuna have built modern stability in La Liga around an extremely conservative transfer policy and a strong club identity rooted in their home region of Navarre. Ante Budimir at around eight million euros remains the all-time record incoming signing, and the rest of the squad-building has been done in the one to two million euro range or through academy promotions.
