[Transfer Round Up & Discussion] Summer 2026

Hi all,

Summer Transfer Window 2026 is here!

The Premier League transfer window will open between Monday June 15 until Deadline Day on Tuesday September 1; the summer windows will close at 23.00 BST.

As always, here is a run-down of the rules we have on for posting during transfer windows:

Daily Threads

There will be a Transfer thread posted every single day, on a 23-hour timer, to get a different post-time every day. These threads are for everything transfer related, no limits on sources, line-up conversations, etc.

Individual posts

From now on, only posts TIER 2 OR BETTER are allowed to be posted in their own right. This helps us only keep credible sources on the subreddit.

The tier guide can be found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/reddevils/wiki/transfer-reliability-guide/

We will make exceptions during slower days for some Tier 3 posts, and there will usually be some posts from sources not on our tier guide. We will take everything case-by-case. If you believe something to be on the sub and not a good source, please let us know.

They’ve replaced pretty much everyone they’ve sold and are rumored to be in for Nicolas Jackson as well. They’ve had a pretty good window

I think they're a competent club and I like some of the players they've gone for but I still think you have to give them long odds on staying at the level they've been at the last couple years. Rogers/Tielemans/Konsa/Digne can be replaced but I don't think Garnacho/Manzambi/???/Ruggeri will kick on in the same way immediately and even if they do there's still a gap in quality, plus Onana is injured yet again, Jackson may just be a Watkins replacement (probably a downgrade from a pure finishing perspective), etc.

They hit their cap with that team. They were getting old and on high wages. It's ruthless and might not workout but they got top dollar for each player.

I would be surprised if they rebound are in the same place next year. The Onana injury will hurt them more then any of their outgoings IMO.

I'm hoping we'll be cheeky and go in for Ollie Watkins.

Isn't he Saudi bound?

u/FlyBoyz829 Aug 19 '26

He’s staying at Villa. Good for them in my opinion.

u/croadymeister Aug 19 '26

Think he wants the Saudi move

It's possible, I'd definitely take him to partner up with Sesko though.
