Arsenal have been very busy in the transfer market this summer, spending around £120m on five transfers, with two purchases from Manchester City (Oleksandr Zinchenko and Gabriel Jesus) being the most high profile.
There has also been a high turnover of players at Aston Villa, with manager Steven Gerrard trying to stamp his mark on the squad. After a slow start to the transfer window, newly promoted Bournemouth have also begun recruiting, following the recent arrivals of Marcos Senesi and Marcus Tavernier.

Chelsea’s new owners have really made a statement with some of their signings so far this summer. The £62m paid to sign Brighton’s Marc Cucurella did raise plenty of eyebrows though.

Liverpool and Manchester City made their moves early in the summer to secure the signatures of Darwin Nunez and Erling Haaland. Both players have consequently hit the ground running. In contrast, Manchester United have once again been scrambling around for potential signings late on in the transfer window.
Erik ten Hag’s side may have made three purchases (including the significant addition of Lautaro Martinez from Ajax), but they have failed to address key weaknesses in the squad. Their lengthy pursuit of Barcelona’s Frenkie de Jong could end up proving fruitless and the wasted effort may cost them dearly.

Steve Cooper’s Nottingham Forest side seem intent on retaining their top-flight status by investing in no less than twelve signings so far, including the high-profile captures of England pair Dean Henderson (on loan) and Jesse Lingard (on a free transfer).
Tottenham have been widely praised for their transfer business, recruiting the likes of Richarlison and Yves Bissouma, while West Ham have spent big on Sassuolo’s Gianluca Scamacca and Rennes’ Nayef Aguerd.
