Aperçu Delfines de Coatzacoalcos

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.

Steve Bruce admits that Emi Martinez’s desperation to leave Aston Villa is strange, with the former Villans boss reacting to transfer talk during an exclusive interview with GOAL - as the World Cup-winning goalkeeper sees a move to Chelsea mooted. The Argentina international has spent 12 months shuffling his way towards exit doors in the West Midlands.

Nottingham Forest have completed the marquee £50m signing of striker Liam Delap from Chelsea on a five-year deal. The 23-year-old forward arrives at the City Ground for an initial £45m fee plus £5m in add-ons, aiming to reignite his Premier League form after finding starting opportunities limited during his solitary season at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea's £34m summer signing Valentin Barco has revealed how transitioning into a central midfielder transformed his career and paved the way for his move to Stamford Bridge. The 22-year-old explained that abandoning his traditional left-back role helped him earn an Argentina World Cup call-up and secure a high-profile Premier League return.
