The English summer transfer window officially opened on the 14th of July 2024. Surprisingly, the rate of transfer has been very slow, although some clubs had gone about their businesses in the market before the window was opened. Many clubs have brought in players to strengthen their team ahead of the season while some are still in the market identifying their targets.
The likes of Manchester United,Chelsea, West ham United and Arsenal, Aston Villa and Fulham have been the most active clubs in the transfer market. They’re making good signings and bolstering their squad to challenge for good positions in the league table.
Liverpool is the only club to have not brought in a player. I don’t really understand what’s going on with them, but I feel they’re waiting on departures before they can bring in someone.
Honestly speaking, I have not witnessed a transfer market as dull as this before. I don't know whether it's due to financial crisis affecting some clubs that is affecting the entire transfer market. Surprisingly, even clubs who are not struggling with finance are not too active in the market as well.
Talking about the active clubs in the market, Chelsea has been active in the market more than any other club thou I see their activeness as a misplaced priority because they are bringing in players who have no much impact on the club. In fact, some of the players they bring in will become a bench warmer despite spending huge amounts in the transfer market.
