With the summer 2025 transfer window closing in exactly one week, on Monday, September 1st, several big cases are still pending.

Here are eight that should animate this end of the transfer window!

Definitely the biggest name still on the market, although his departure is not really confirmed.

According to the latest rumors, Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City were interested in the Brazilian. Things could well accelerate in the last few days, especially from Man.City who could lose Savinho (to Tottenham) and thus find him a replacement…

For several weeks now, the Swedish international from Newcastle has been pushing to join Liverpool, but his club has not yet given in.

No doubt the Reds will try to finish the job in this final week of the transfer window, for what could then be the biggest transfer of the summer…

Still absent from the match sheet against West Ham on Friday night, Christopher Nkunku is one of the players on the way out at Chelsea.

The French international has touches… everywhere. In the Bundesliga, with Bayern Munich and his former club Leipzig; or in the Premier League, where Aston Villa is eyeing him. He should be one of the animators of the end of the transfer window!

In the opposite direction, the former PSG midfielder, Xavi Simons, is waiting to join Chelsea. But the transfer seems to depend on Nkunku’s departure. Case to follow…

In the midst of austerity this summer, Lyon still needs to sell and Malick Fofana is the name that comes up the most.

The club’s biggest market value, the Belgian gem, who scored another superb goal against FC Metz, is attracting many top clubs, including Bayern who reportedly made the first move by making an offer to OL. The bidding war begins!

He is one of the many unwanted at Chelsea. After two seasons with more than 10 goals for the Blues, the Senegalese international is no longer desired. Aston Villa is reportedly interested.

While the saga with Roma has fizzled out, Jadon Sancho has not yet found his new destination. Although his rating has dropped in recent years, many teams could take a gamble at the end of the transfer window, sensing an interesting deal.

Will he leave, or will he not?

Initially sidelined from the group at the beginning of last week by OM after the famous altercation with Jonathan Rowe, Adrien Rabiot could finally… stay.

Roberto De Zerbi has certainly opened the door. But the French international is officially still on the transfer list and many clubs could seize the opportunity…
