Premier League Done Deals: Every 2026–27 Summer Transfer
“Heroes come and go,” the Premier League’s chief executive Richard Masters warned this summer, “we are seeing a bit of a change of the guard.”
England’s top flight undoubtedly looks different after a window of unmatched spending extravagance, but oddly familiar at the same time. Although teams have spent more money on transfers than ever before—upward of $4.75 billion—many of those fees have been paid to their domestic rivals.
Never before has there been such a focus of trades directly between Premier League clubs. Even after a summer which saw the World Cup unearth talents from every corner of the planet, England’s clubs took the approach of sticking to what they know.
Now that silence has finally descended upon this dizzying game of musical chairs, here is where everyone has ended up sitting.

Arsenal were supposed to be signing players from a position of ultimate strength this summer. Yet, even marquee arrival Bruno Guimarães, who completed a £75 million ($101 million) move from Newcastle United, is a deal which could feasibly been struck without the heft of Arsenal’s newfound status as Premier League champions.
The Gunners were efficient if not extravagant elsewhere in the window. Christos Tzolis’s cut-price arrival from Club Brugge as a well-rested Leandro Trossard replacement could prove to be the bargain of the summer. Piero Hincapié and Ezri Konsa have strengthened the defense, while goalkeeper Illan Meslier joins as a free agent.
However, the blockbuster move of a Vinícius Júnior or a Julián Alvarez never came to fruition.

Chelsea once again smashed their club transfer record by signing Morgan Rogers for a truly eye-watering sum, although they made that back and more with the protracted exit for Enzo Fernández. By the end of Tuesday evening, however, Chelsea were somehow left to rue a player they (for once) didn’t sign after missing out on multiple options for Fernández’s replacement.

Liverpool have allowed some big names to depart on free transfers, with Ibrahima Konaté, Andy Robertson and, most crucially, Mohamed Salah all leaving Anfield. In better news for the Reds, up-and-coming center back Jérémy Jacquet has finally signed for the club after a January agreement with Rennes, while young winger Víctor Muñoz was also acquired. Ronald Araújo joined on loan to replace Konaté in the short-term.
After a lengthy saga, the Reds struck an agreement with Paris Saint-Germain for Bradley Barcola, with the French winger becoming the club’s second-most expensive signing.

Finally, Enzo Fernández arrived at Manchester City. It only took the joint-most expensive transfer fee in Premier League history.
Elliot Anderson became the fourth-most expensive transfer of all-time by joining Manchester City off the back of an incredible ascent at Nottingham Forest. Enzo Maresca’s first addition as Pep Guardiola’s successor is a huge one, with youngsters such as Ayyoub Bouaddi, Jeremy Monga, Pierce Charles and Mathys Detourbet also joining the club.
Going the other way, Rodri is a seismic loss at the base of midfield, while James Trafford, Nico González, Tijjani Reijnders, Sàvio, Omar Marmoush and Nathan Aké have also found new homes.

Manchester United’s summer transfer business can be charitably described as concentrated. A complete midfield overhaul started with the addition of Andrey Santos from Chelsea and Youri Tielemans from Aston Villa, before concluding with Carlos Baleba of Brighton & Hove Albion.
Veteran goalkeeper Karl Darlow also joined the club as a free agent but there was a distinct lack of additions in defense or attack.

Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham have spent big this summer already. / Tottenham Hotspur
On the face of it, Tottenham Hotspur have acted decisively this summer. After flirting with relegation last season, Spurs have rewritten the record books with a midfield overhaul of Sandro Tonali and Mateus Fernandes, Sávio and Omar Marmoush have arrived from Manchester City’s bench while Jan Paul van Hecke came off the bench. Free signings of Andy Robertson, Marcos Senesi and Martin Dúbravka have added a layer of experience.
Yet, all that won’t matter unless Roberto De Zerbi can construct this disparate collection of personalities into a cohesive unit. As he said himself: “You can’t buy mentality in the transfer market.”
