Here is every transfer involving Premier League clubs ahead of the 2026/27 season.

Transfer activity across the Premier League is beginning to gather pace before the start of the 2026/27 campaign.

The window began slowly because of the World Cup, but with the new season set to kick off on August 21, the return of Premier League football is now very close.

So, who has signed whom? Here is the full list of all transfers completed so far, with fees courtesy of Transfermarkt.

Champions Arsenal confirmed their first signing early in the window by making Piero Hincapie's move permanent after a successful loan spell last season. Porto, meanwhile, have also activated the clause to turn Jakub Kiwior's move into a permanent deal.
Fan favourite Leandro Trossard leaves the Gunners after three and a half years, with Greek attacker Christos Tzolis brought in to refresh the forward line.

The headline development here is among the departures: Aston Villa have broken their all-time record sale previously set by Jack Grealish through Morgan Rogers' exit.
Joao Gomes will strengthen the midfield alongside club-record signing Johan Manzambi. Donyell Malen and Enzo Barrenechea have also departed for respectable fees.

Bournemouth came through the World Cup without losing either Alex Scott or Junior Kroupi, and they have reinforced both defence and attack by signing Antonio Silva and Alvaro Rodriguez. Alex Jimenez's loan obligation was activated, only for the full-back to then be sent to Fiorentina.

Brentford have set a new transfer record to sign the highly rated Mamadou Sangare, while also saying goodbye to Jordan Henderson in midfield, with Sangare likely to take that role.
Former Bournemouth forwards Jaidon Anthony and Callum Wilson provide extra options in attack after both suffered relegation last season.

Chelsea's regular raid on Brighton & Hove Albion talent has produced a surprise this time: Danny Welbeck has left Brighton to become the first player to have represented Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United. Jan Paul van Hecke has departed for Tottenham Hotspur, with Luka Vuskovic arriving as a highly rated replacement.

Chelsea have added Premier League know-how through Danny Welbeck, Morgan Rogers and Maxence Lacroix, while continuing their strategy of recruiting elite young talent. Valentin Barco arrives as a World Cup runner-up, Marco Palestra offers competition for Reece James, and Geovany Quenda is the long-anticipated signing from Sporting.

Coventry City are taking a measured approach to their rebuild, but they have added Loum Tchaouna and Frank Onyeka to a Championship-winning squad, with both players having previous top-flight experience.

Oscar Mingueza comes in to replace Maxence Lacroix at Crystal Palace, who have reached August without spending a penny.

Everton have turned the loan moves of Merlin Rohl and Tyrique George into permanent transfers. Hayden Hackney stands out as their marquee signing of the summer.

New Fulham manager Alvaro Arbeloa has lost last season's two leading scorers, Raul Jimenez and Harry Wilson, without receiving a fee for either. Jonah Kusi-Asare's loan switch has now been made permanent.

Hull City are proceeding cautiously after promotion: Jack Butland's arrival from Rangers, with Ivor Pandur moving in the opposite direction, remains their most notable piece of business.

Ipswich Town have been busy strengthening their attack, with Chuba Akpom and Daizen Maeda both joining the Tractor Boys for less than £10m. Arijanet Muric has moved to Italy, Conor Chaplin has joined Leicester City, and Ashley Young has retired.

Leeds United have landed Harry Wilson on a free transfer in a major coup, given the level of interest in him from multiple clubs. Tarik Muharemovic has also arrived for a sizeable fee, while Jack Harrison has finally departed and returned to Major League Soccer.

It has been a quiet window for Liverpool, with Jeremy Jacquet coming in to replace Ibrahima Konate in defence, while Victor Munoz could be the attacking successor to Mohamed Salah.
Long-serving Andrew Robertson has joined Tottenham Hotspur on a free transfer.

There has been sweeping change at Manchester City, who have broken their transfer record to sign Elliot Anderson and beaten Arsenal to teenage sensation Jeremy Monga.
Defensive mainstays Manuel Akanji, Nathan Ake and John Stones have all left, while Bernardo Silva has also departed on a free transfer to Real Madrid.

Manchester United have brought in a respectable fee for Rasmus Hojlund, but they have released Casemiro, Tyrell Malacia and Jadon Sancho, taking a loss of almost £150m.

However, the arrivals of Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans in midfield look smart pieces of business, giving Michael Carrick both depth and quality at good prices.

Newcastle United's major clear-out began before the World Cup, with Sandro Tonali, Anthony Gordon and Kieran Trippier all leaving Tyneside before Eddie Howe followed.
Those exits have, however, been balanced by the arrivals of exciting young talents Bazoumana Toure, Sean Steur and Lukas Hornicek.

Nottingham Forest's biggest move before August was an outgoing one, with Elliot Anderson leaving for an English record fee. Stefan Ortega, Jota Silva and Gustavo Sa have all joined affiliate club Olympiacos.

Sunderland worked hard to keep Granit Xhaka for another year and moved early to add more experience by signing Thomas Meunier on a free transfer.

Tottenham Hotspur have overseen an expensive rebuild, acting quickly to smash their transfer record for Sandro Tonali, while also adding Mateus Fernandes and Jan Paul van Hecke to the squad. Marcos Senesi and Andrew Robertson have both arrived on free transfers.
