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!

The 2026 window is once again proving to be busy, with some huge names making big-money moves before deadline day on September 1.

Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis has launched a legal battle against Crystal Palace following the display of a controversial banner during a Premier League fixture. The Greek businessman has filed a defamation claim in the High Court after supporters at Selhurst Park unfurled a graphic image that has sparked widespread outrage.

Everton and Crystal Palace have agreed a swap deal that will see Dwight McNeil move to Selhurst Park and Wales international Brennan Johnson head to Goodison Park. Both players are scheduled for medicals ahead of signing initial four-year contracts, completing a sensational exchange between the Premier League rivals before the new season starts.
