Yorke’s transfer fee was actually £12.6m (The Euro didn't exist then). The most expensive CONCACAF players that I know of are John Brooks (USA) from Hertha Berlin to Wolfsburg and Nery Castillo (Mexico) from Olympiakos to Shakhtar Donetsk. Both of their transfers were reported to be €20m.

But that is just in pure numbers only. To properly compare the transfer fees in terms of which is more expensive, you would have to adjust for inflation.

I believe Yorke is.

Nery Castillo (Mexico) for 20 million euro's in the summer of 2007 and Wilson Palacios £12m to Spurs.

Add to play in a world cup as well. Not many from Concacaf can boast all of that.
