Lithuania U17 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 once again proving to be busy, with some huge names making big-money moves before deadline day on September 1.

The transfer window usually dominates the back pages during the summer, but that's rarely the case in tournament years as the market is forced to take a back seat. 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.

The ongoing recruitment drive at Old Trafford could soon yield a spectacular third midfield addition ahead of the demanding new campaign. Having already heavily invested in reshaping the engine room, decision-makers are well aware that a prime target remains entirely desperate to secure a dream move to the Theatre of Dreams this summer.

Brighton & Hove Albion have smashed their transfer record to complete the sensational signing of defender Luka Vuskovic from Premier League rivals Tottenham Hotspur. The 19-year-old Croatia international has penned a long-term contract at the Amex Stadium after the Seagulls successfully negotiated a deal that could eventually rise to £50m.
