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.
Marc Cucurella has proven to be a man of his word by unveiling a permanent tribute to Spain head coach Luis de la Fuente after his country's 2026 World Cup success.

And when 46 of those nations had been whittled away, only the top two ranked teams on the planet remained: Spain and Argentina.
Lionel Messi came under fire after appearing to urge the referee to send off Marc Cucurella during the World Cup final.
