Summer 2026 confirmed transfers: the ten biggest deals
Only deals a club has announced itself. Each line carries the buying club's official site and a report confirming the move, so the fee can be checked rather than guessed. English window, closed on 1 September 2026: ten transfers of £60m and above, £1.022bn in total.

Fees are the figures the clubs and the reporting around the announcement agree on; where a club does not publish a number, the line says so instead of guessing. Type is permanent, loan or free agent — this table starts with permanent deals, the window's loans and free signings follow in the next pass.
What qualifies for this table
A transfer enters the tracker when three things are true: the buying club has published the signing, the selling club has acknowledged the departure, and at least one of them states a fee or confirms it is undisclosed. Moves agreed but not registered stay out, which is why the table lags the news by a day at most.
Threshold for this first pass is £60m. Expanding to £25m roughly triples the row count and is the next step; below that the list stops being a record of the window and becomes a directory.
