Most people consider 'buying the league' as winning it through a sugar daddy putting in money in the club, rather than funds earned by the team's previous success. So on those terms any money currently spent by Chelsea, United, City etc is not buying the league.
If a team is not known for success then gets hundreds of millions (or even billions) pumped in to it from a new owner and suddenly they're a top 4 team or start winning cups/titles, that's what I consider "buying the league".
