Confirmed Transfers
Premier League
So far this window, not a whole heap of blockbuster deals have actually gone through, have they? West Ham have officially confirmed the signing of Kurt Zouma from Chelsea for an undisclosed fee, reported to be around £30 million. A solid addition to their defensive line, no doubt. Will this finally be West Ham’s year to break into the top six? One can only hope!
La Liga
Over in Spain, things are a little quieter, maybe because everyone’s still recovering from the Lionel Messi saga. Real Betis have snagged Hector Bellerin on a season-long loan from Arsenal. A good move for both parties, giving Bellerin some much-needed game time and Betis some extra pace down the right flank. Plus, who doesn’t love seeing a player revitalized in a new environment?
Serie A
Inter Milan are rebuilding, and they’ve just announced the signing of Joaquin Correa from Lazio. A decent signing, though can he really fill the Lukaku-sized hole? Time will tell, I suppose. Let’s be honest, it’s a tough act to follow.
Bundesliga
Bayern Munich continue to flex their financial muscle, securing the signature of Marcel Sabitzer from RB Leipzig. Another blow for Leipzig, who seem to be Bayern’s feeder club these days, don’t they? Sabitzer adds even more quality to an already stacked midfield. It seems almost unfair. Almost.
Other European Leagues
Ajax have confirmed the arrival of Steven Berghuis from Feyenoord. A controversial move, as he has jumped ship from one of their biggest rivals. That takes guts, doesn’t it? Let’s see how the fans take to it when the season kicks off properly. Fireworks are expected, to say the least.
Rumour Mill
Premier League Rumours
Whispers are circulating that Manchester United are keen on Declan Rice. I mean, who wouldn’t be? West Ham are supposedly holding out for a massive fee. A lot of money, but is he worth it? The rumour mill is abuzz, as always, and the chatter around a possible transfer involving Declan Rice is only getting louder.
La Liga Rumours
Barcelona are reportedly eyeing a loan move for Philippe Coutinho in January. Seriously? Hasn’t that ship sailed? It feels like they’re just trying to recapture past glories, and frankly, it’s a bit sad to watch. Barcelona’s desperation is actually quite palpable.
Serie A Rumours
Juventus are being linked with a move for Eden Hazard. A swap deal involving Paulo Dybala has been suggested. Would Hazard thrive in Italy? I’m not so sure. He hasn’t exactly set the world on fire at Real Madrid, has he? But hey, stranger things have happened.
Bundesliga Rumours
Borussia Dortmund are sniffing around PSV Eindhoven’s Noni Madueke. A promising young talent, no doubt, but is he ready for the step up to the Bundesliga? Dortmund do have a good track record with developing young players, so it could be a perfect fit. Or a massive flop. Only time will tell, I suppose.
Global Rumours
PSG are still being linked with, well, just about everyone. But the latest rumour is that they’re considering a move for Cristiano Ronaldo next summer. Can you imagine? Messi, Neymar, Mbappe, and Ronaldo all on the same team. It’s like a fever dream. Can a team even function with that much ego? The football would be spectacular, though!
Players in Demand
Strikers
Harry Kane’s situation is still unresolved. Will he stay at Tottenham, or will he finally get his move to Manchester City? It’s the transfer saga that just won’t die. You can’t blame the guy for wanting to win trophies, can you?
Midfielders
Paul Pogba’s future at Manchester United is also up in the air. With his contract expiring next summer, will he sign a new deal, or will he leave on a free transfer? Real Madrid and Juventus are both rumoured to be interested. Imagine him back in Turin… those were the days!
Defenders
Jules Kounde is still a target for Chelsea, but Sevilla are playing hardball. They’re demanding his full release clause, which is a hefty sum. Is he worth all that money? He’s good, but… hmmm, it’s a tough one.
Goalkeepers
Not much activity in the goalkeeper department, to be honest. Most clubs seem pretty set with their current shot-stoppers. But watch this space! You never know when a surprise move might happen.

What to Expect on Deadline Day

Keep your eyes peeled, and don’t believe everything you read! Who knows what twists and turns are still to come before the window closes? Maybe your favorite team will pull off a stunning signing.
