- Anthony Gordon completed a £69.3m move from Newcastle United to Barcelona, the highest-fee transfer confirmed in the 2026 summer window so far.
- Tottenham signed Jan Paul van Hecke from Brighton for £52m and added Andy Robertson (from Liverpool) and Marcos Senesi (from Bournemouth) on contract ends.
- Chelsea offloaded Marc Cucurella to Real Madrid for £51.8m as the club's only listed deal of the window to date.
- Manchester United sold Rasmus Hojlund to Napoli for £38m while Casemiro, Jadon Sancho, and Tyrell Malacia all departed on contract ends.
- Liverpool brought in Victor Munoz from Osasuna for £34.5m while Mohamed Salah left via mutual termination and Andy Robertson departed for Tottenham.
- Manchester City saw John Stones leave on a contract end and Bernardo Silva depart for Real Madrid on a free transfer.
- Brentford signed Jannik Schuster from Red Bull Salzburg for £16.5m; the window runs from June 15 through September 1 at 11pm UK time.
Why it matters: Big-money sales reshape the Premier League's competitive map: Newcastle lose a key attacker to Barcelona for £69.3m, Chelsea recoup £51.8m on Cucurella, and Liverpool enter a post-Salah rebuild anchored by a £34.5m Munoz signing. With the window open until September 1 and the 2026 World Cup approaching, the confirmed deals signal active squad turnover across the top flight.
