Premier League chief Richard Scudamore feels the £100 million will be broken eventually in transfer fees.
Chelsea splash out £50 million to land Liverpool striker Fernando Torres on Monday, while Cristiano Ronaldo is running around with an £80 million price-tag at Real Madrid.
Scudamore acknowledged that Monday's transfer fees were eye-catching but denied that the spending was out of control.
He said: "There's a point where it becomes in anybody's mind - ridiculous, but I don't think we are that level."
Asked if spending a £100 million on a player for the Premier League was ridiculous, he replied: "It's ridiculous right here today at the current prices. Can I see it happening in the future? It's inevitable one day I think that it will happen, I don't think we are there at that level yet."
