Now that the domestic season is over for all major European leagues, clubs can now focus on their preparations for the 2025/26 campaign, with a natural focus on recruitment.
The big spenders will be out in force again, with Real Madrid looking to back new boss Xabi Alonso, Chelsea keen to improve again after securing Champions League qualification, and Manchester United desperate to reclaim some kind of success after a disastrous season that saw them finish just three places above the relegation zone in the Premier League.
The Red Devils have signed Matheus Cunha, with Man City also flexing their financial power to sign Tijani Reijnders, Rayan Ait-Nouri, Marcus Bettinelli and Rayan Cherki.
Some big deals happened earlier than usual due to the Club World Cup and the deadline for participation in that tournament is now over, though the window remains open.
The biggest deal so far this summer saw Florian Wirtz complete a blockbuster transfer to Liverpool from Leverkusen.
Some questions that will hang over the transfer window this season:

Jeremie Frimpong is full of praise for fellow Liverpool new boy Florian Wirtz.
"He's my boy. He's a winner - a very, very special player and very hard working. The league will love him," the Dutchman told Sky Sports.
"I won't have to talk much, just watch him. He doesn't crumble under pressure, he likes pressure. He's a guy that makes you enjoy football with the way he plays."
The Reds have spent close to £200 million on the Leverkusen pair this summer.

Rashford wants to play with Yamal at Barca
It is no secret that Marcus Rashford is desperate to secure a move to Barcelona this summer and has even spoken about the prospect of playing with wonderkid Lamine Yamal.
When asked about potentially teaming up with Yamal, Rashford said in an interview with Spanish influencer Javi Ruiz:
"Yes, for sure. Everyone wants to play with the best. Hopefully... we'll see."
The Man Utd forward spent the second half of last season on loan at Aston Villa and will likely leave the Red Devils on a permanent basis this summer.

Juventus 'dreaming' about Timber transfer
Jurrien Timber would reportedly be a 'dream' transfer for Juventus.
The Italian giants have some money to spend after securing Champions League football and they believe the Dutchman would represent a marquee summer signing.
However, he currently has an Estimated Transfer Value of €65.4 million and his high status in the Arsenal squad means that a transfer is highly unlikely. (TuttoSport)

"It's quite early for that question I can't say anything about that.
"We are at the start of the new season, so it's too early there."

Jackson not for sale after all?
Contrary to previous reports, Chelsea aren't looking to sell Nicolas Jackson, says Sky Sports' Mark McAdam:
"As far as Chelsea are concerned Nicholas Jackson is not for sale. They want a squad with two world-class no,9's with Delap and Jackson. Those players are going to get game-time. There is interest in Jackson from the Saudi league and Europe but as far as Chelsea are concerned he's not going anywhere. He's signed a contract at Chelsea until 2033. So any offer would have to be a big offer."

Arsenal now prefer Gyokeres to Sesko?
Arsenal are leaning more towards Viktor Gyokeres than Benjamin Sesko after recent developments.
The Gunners have been chasing Sesko for well over a year and were locked in talks with RB Leipzig earlier this month regarding a deal for the towering striker. But, Sesko reportedly asked for a release clause to be inserted in his contract, while the Sun now reports that his wage demands are in excess of what Arsenal are willing to pay.
That means they will now turn to Gyokeres who could come for a slightly lower fee and demand a lower salary.

Osimhen patiently waiting for Man Utd?
Rio Ferdinand believes Victor Osimhen is waiting for Man Utd to make a move to sign him.
The Nigerian will leave Napoli this summer, having spent last season on loan at Galatasaray. He recently rejected a lucrative deal from Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia as his preference is to stay in Europe but no European side has been able to secure his signature as of yet.
Man Utd have been circling, and it could be that Osimhen is waiting on the call from the Red Devils.
“No.9? They already know who I want. The comments know, the people know who I want, who I would go and get: Osimhen!" Ferdinand said on his YouTube channel when asked who United should sign.
“It looks like he’s turned down Al-Hilal… he must be waiting for Man Utd. I don’t know if Man Utd are going to come. That’s the problem.”
