For some football fans, the summer is the part of the calendar that they look forward to the most - and that's not just because it's filled by a World Cup every four years! Rather, it's because the end of the season means only one thing: It's time for transfers! The 2026 window is once again proving to be busy, with some huge names making big-money moves before deadline day on September 1.
Arsenal came remarkably close to pulling off one of the most stunning transfers in Premier League history before Vinicius Junior ultimately decided to commit his long-term future to Real Madrid. The Brazilian superstar was reportedly very interested in the project being built at the Emirates Stadium under Mikel Arteta, leaving the Spanish giants in a vulnerable position for months.
Real Madrid defender Dean Huijsen has officially inherited the club’s iconic number 4 shirt ahead of the 2026-27 season. The young Spaniard, who previously wore a different squad number during his debut campaign, expressed his immense pride in taking over a jersey made famous by legends like Sergio Ramos and Fernando Hierro, and is determined to prove himself worthy of the number.
Lee Dixon believes Vinicius Junior may have used interest from Arsenal to secure a new contract at Real Madrid. However, the former Gunners defender insists that missing out on the Brazilian star does not hurt the club and instead sends a strong message to Premier League rivals.
