The 2026 summer transfer window is officially open and deals are happening left, right and centre across Europe.

With the World Cup having come to a close, clubs are now accelerating their transfer plans ahead of the 2026-27 season.

Tottenham Hotspur have raced out of the traps this summer, backing manager Roberto De Zerbi with €269million (£229m) worth of talent.

Jan Paul van Hecke (€61m/£52m), Sandro Tonali (€108m/£92.5m) and Mateus Fernandes (€99m/£85m) have joined Spurs for big fees, while Andy Robertson, Marcos Senesi and Martin Dubravka have arrived for free.

Meanwhile the Blues have permanently sold Marc Cucurella, Andrey Santos and Tyrique George to Real Madrid, Manchester United and Everton respectively for around €146m (£124m), while Alejandro Garnacho has joined Aston Villa on loan with a conditional obligation to buy.

Alongside Santos, Man Utd have signed Youri Tielemans (€41m/£35m) and Karl Darlow (free) ahead of their first full season under manager Michael Carrick.

Manchester City meanwhile have captured Elliot Anderson from Nottingham Forest for €136m (£116m), in addition to the signings of Mathys Detourbet (€25m/£20.4m) and Jeremy Monga (€14.1m/£12m).

Rounding off the Premier League’s elite, Arsenal have signed Christos Tzolis for €40m (£34m) and Illan Meslier (free), while Liverpool have acquired Victor Munoz from Osasuna for €40m (£34m) and Samuel Martinez from Atletico Nacional for around €879,000 (£750,000).
