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

Business never sleeps, however, and several deals have gone under the radar during the 2026 World Cup. After five-and-a-half weeks and some 104 matches, the big event is finally over, which means attention can now turn to the comings and goings at club level.
