As teams get ready for the new season and the enlarged FIFA Club World Cup, the 2025 football transfer market is booming with big transfers. In addition to completing the £62.5 million acquisition of Matheus Cunha from Wolves, Manchester United is apparently discussing a trade involving Rasmus Højlund and Victor Osimhen of Napoli. Barcelona and Marcus Rashford’s agents have also met to talk about a possible trade.
In an attempt to bolster their midfield before the upcoming campaign arsenal is nearing a £51 million deal to acquire Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubimendi. Ipswich Town striker Liam Delap, who turned down Manchester United’s interest in joining the Blues, has agreed to a £30 million agreement with Chelsea. Sporting AboveWe Ain’t Got No History
Because of the Club World Cup, the Premier League’s summer transfer market will open in two stages: first from June 1 to June 10 and then again from June 16 to September 1. This change makes it possible for teams like Manchester City and Chelsea to sign fresh players before the competition.
Saudi teams are also after well-known players; according to Al-Nassr, Luis Díaz of Liverpool and Son Heung-min of Tottenham are among the top targets. In addition to negotiating a contract deal with Leroy Sané, Bayern Munich is thinking about loaning promising midfielder Paul Wanner to VfB Stuttgart.
These developments indicate a dynamic transfer window as clubs across Europe and beyond look to strengthen their squads for the challenges ahead.
