Super Cup Overview

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 likely to once again be bust, with some huge names set to make big-money moves before deadline day on September 1.

Steven Gerrard has been used to explain why Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice cannot be considered a Ballon d’Or contender “just yet”, with Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler telling GOAL why the Gunners talisman “needs to go up a notch” in order to join the global elite. That path is still being trodden by the all-action 27-year-old, who will soon be on World Cup duty with England.

Manchester United have made a statement of intent in the transfer market by reportedly reaching a £38m agreement to sign Atalanta midfielder Ederson. With personal terms finalised on a long-term contract, the Brazilian is poised to become the first major acquisition of the Michael Carrick era as the Red Devils look to transform their engine room ahead of the new campaign.

Aston Villa star Morgan Rogers has been tipped for a sensational move to European heavyweights Barcelona or Real Madrid after catching the eye in the Premier League. As the 23-year-old’s stock continues to rise, Unai Emery’s side have simultaneously been warned against making a move for Arsenal forward Gabriel Jesus despite a tempting price tag.
