The top 5 European leagues are gradually finding their way back into the spotlight as the football season begins. But all the action won’t be limited to the football pitch.
With the summer transfer window set to slam shut in just more than 3 weeks, the scramble for which player to buy continues as clubs continue to bolster their squads in preparation for the new season ahead.
The football world may not see another world-record setting move like Neymar’s before this window closes but you can be sure to see players moving in opposite direction before that deadline second. Whether it’s for a new challenge, the money or something else, you can look forward to even more breaking transfer news in the days ahead.
While there’s a long list, we’ve selected a few names which we think may still make a move before the end of the summer transfer window.
- Philippe Coutinho
Barcelona, after losing Neymar, is looking for a replacement. And this is reportedly the name that tops the list. With the money made from the sale of Neymar, price is definitely not an issue.
- Kylian Mbappe
Real Madrid and PSG are looking to get the signature of the French wonder kid. But Monaco, after the mass exodus so far, will want to hold on to their striker.
