5= | £80,000 | Hull City | Colin Alcide | 22 November 1999 | [21] |
Record transfer fees received
[edit]No. | Fee | Received from | For | Date | Ref. |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | £950,000 | Sheffield Wednesday | Richard Cresswell | 25 March 1999 | [22] |
2 | £700,000[a] | Reading | Graeme Murty | 6 July 1998 | [26] |
3 | £450,000[b] | Port Vale | Jon McCarthy | 1 August 1995 | [28] |

4= | £350,000[c] | Manchester United | Jonathan Greening | 26 March 1998 | [31][35] |
- ^ A clause was included in the transfer which stipulated that York would receive an additional £50,000 should Reading earn promotion during the lifetime of Murty's four-year contract.[23] York claimed that they were owed the payment after Reading won promotion in the 2001–02 season, although Reading argued that the clause no longer applied as Murty had signed a new contract a year earlier.[24] The two clubs agreed on an undisclosed settlement in September 2002.[25]
- ^ York received an additional £210,000 from a sell-on clause when McCarthy left Port Vale for Birmingham City for a £1.5 million fee in September 1997.[27][28]
- ^ An appearance-based clause meant that an additional £100,000 would be paid to York for every 5 first-team appearances up to 50 that Greening made for Manchester United.[30] As he made 27 appearances for Manchester United,[31] York received £500,000 in total from this clause.[32] Another contractual clause meant that York would receive 25% of the difference between the fee received by Manchester United should he be transferred and what York had already received from United.[33] York received £287,500 when Greening left Manchester United for Middlesbrough for a £2 million fee in August 2001.[34]
