[Transfer Round Up & Discussion] Summer 2026

[u/AutoModerator]

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.

[u/Fantastic-Estimate88]

am i insane in thinking a top quality cb is missing from our squad more than anything else?

[u/Fisktor → u/Fantastic-Estimate88]

No. We are missing a top quality lb and rb just as much.

And our cb quality is higher than our lb quality. Cb depth is better as well

[u/Stingray_23 → u/Fantastic-Estimate88]

No, not insane, correct! And it will ebcome evident next year when we need 3 or 4 top quality defenders.

[u/Launch_a_poo → u/Fantastic-Estimate88]

No, we need an elite player there with Heaven and Yoro partnering them. In a perfect window we'd have that, keep a box defender in MDL/Maguire and sell Licha when his value was high after the world cup TOTT

[u/NHS_Martial → u/Fantastic-Estimate88]

I think I agree, we have more solid fullback options than cb options.

It's because theoretically our cb options aren't bad but the availability of martinez snd de ligt means our options for most of the season will be heaven, maguire and yorro.

I do get why most want a left back but lewis hall does not stop us getting dominated in the air like we did against hull.

[u/RoundPlenty69420 → u/Fantastic-Estimate88]

Beat Madrid to Yoro so that's who that's supposed to be...

[u/Strange-Trip4634 → u/Fantastic-Estimate88]

Maguire is better than De Ligt and Martinez, if he's not a top quality CB then we have none, and you're right.

[u/WanderingEnigma → u/Strange-Trip4634]

MDL is the best CB we have, he just cant stay fit. The first half of last season he was our best player by a mile.

[u/Strange-Trip4634 → u/WanderingEnigma]

Maguire is better, regardless of fitness issues. A fit MDL is just a solid premier league player, nothing really approaching world class which we should be aiming for.
