Potential Premier League Transfers: Dramatic Deadline Day Decisions That May Still Happen
The summer transfer window in the Premier League is proving to be a rollercoaster ride, with several high-profile moves and dramatic negotiations taking centre stage.
One of the key talking points is the potential transfer of Alexander Isak from Newcastle to Liverpool. The Swedish striker has gone on strike and publicly expressed his intention not to play for Eddie Howe's side again, fuelling speculation about a potential move. Liverpool's initial bid of £110 million was rejected by Newcastle, but the Reds are reportedly preparing a record-breaking new offer over the coming days. However, both parties are currently at a deadlock.
Meanwhile, Chelsea are involved in their own transfer saga, with extensive conversations taking place over a summer move for Manchester United's Alejandro Garnacho. The 18-year-old Argentine winger is not part of Ruben Amorim's plans this season at Old Trafford, and Chelsea have agreed on a deal worth around £40 million. Manchester United initially valued Garnacho at about £50 million, but the difference in valuation between the two clubs has led to a compromise at £35–40 million.
Garnacho himself has expressed his desire for an Old Trafford exit and has reportedly burnt bridges in Manchester. The transfer, if it goes through, would be a significant coup for Chelsea, who have already made headlines with the £116 million signing of Florian Wirtz last month.
The future of several Premier League superstars remains uncertain, with many transfer sagas expected to go down to the September 1st deadline. The collective spending by Premier League clubs this summer has already surpassed £2 billion, reflecting the intense competition and ambition in the league.
As the 2025/26 Premier League campaign began last weekend, the transfer window still has almost two weeks left, promising more twists and turns in the exciting world of football transfers.
