Manchester City have already made three big-money signings – signing Eintracht Frankfurt forward Omar Marmoush (£59m), Palmeiras defender Vitor Reis (£29.6m) and Lens centre-back Abdukodir Khusanov (£33.6m).
Ipswich spent about £20m to sign winger Jaden Philogene from Aston Villa, who in turn spent £19m on Netherlands forward Donyell Malen from Borussia Dortmund.
Manchester United have brought in Denmark defender Patrick Dorgu from Lecce for £25m and England Under-19s international Ayden Heaven from Arsenal for an undisclosed fee.
Tottenham signed Slavia Prague goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky for £12.5m and Lens defender Kevin Danso on loan with a commitment to buy for £21m.
Crystal Palace added teenage Millwall winger Romain Esse for a reported £12m, while Wolves have paid £16.6m to sign Reims defender Emmanuel Agbadou.
Brighton’s signing of Paraguay midfielder Diego Gomez from Inter Miami was for an undisclosed fee, but reports value the deal at about £11m.
There was also an EFL signing for £10m, with Championship promotion chasers Sheffield United bringing in Republic of Ireland striker Tom Cannon from Leicester.
Leaders Liverpool, title rivals Arsenal and Chelsea are some of the seven teams yet to sign anyone.
The joint biggest January signing in the world (along with Marmoush) was Paris St-Germain’s purchase of Napoli winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia for a reported £59m.
But the Georgian is an outlier – with none of Europe’s other top clubs making big-money signings.
The next biggest signing – after City’s trio – is Botafogo winger Luiz Henrique’s reported £27.8m move to Russian side Zenit St Petersburg.
Frankfurt paid about £21.9m to sign Marmoush’s replacement – Marseille forward Elye Wahi.
Those are the only £20m-plus transfers not involving Premier League teams in January.
