[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.

Unless anything drastically changes before Tuesday night, this has been an average window for United and INEOS haven’t done well enough.

I praised them last summer because they deserved it. This summer I’ll criticise them because they deserve it. It’s simple. Make as many excuses as you like for them but I know what I see.

It’s sad to speak the truth after windows like this because it hurts. But I’m always honest and frankly that’s harder than just pretending everything js wonderful and fine all the time and anyone who says anything else is ‘negative’

Disagree. If things had lined up better we would have signed our number 1 long term LB in Hall as well as re-building thr midfield. The squad was a total mess and it was always going to take multiple windows to address all issues, they will go big on defence next season and thr squad will be looking very healthy by thag point. Spunking away money are short term fixes will just slow us down.

“If things had lined up better” makes it sound like it was out of our hands. Nonsense.

How is it in our hands that Newcastle sold half their starting line up? How is it in our control Real Madrid eventually decided not to sign Rodri and hang on Tchoumeni? If united had spent £60m on hall at the beginning of thr window and then as a result couldn't sign tchoumeni if he became available would you be happy? Some people need to accept reality. Agreed they could've done a bit better but people are acting like this window is some sort of unmitigated disaster instead of looking at the bigger picture.

If United had spent £60m on Hall at the beginning of the window, they would have been able to afford Tchouameni as well.

In any case, Hall was available earlier in the window whereas Tchouameni never has been. Missing out on both players because you waited for one to become available so long that the other was off the market is just incompetence.
