Real Madrid had a very active summer transfer window, bringing in as many as seven players and also bringing back Jose Mourinho as manager.
Now, with the transfer window firmly shut, Los Blancos have shifted their focus to renewals for players in the first-team squad.
It was revealed earlier that the club were planning renewal talks with Thibaut Courtois, with the veteran shot-stopper in the final year of his contract.
Now, according to Fabrizio Romano, the Belgium international is closing in on a new contract with Real Madrid, with an agreement between the goalkeeper and the club now almost complete.
The Belgian's current contractual situation made this an urgent matter for Madrid to address, but it looks like talks have progressed smoothly.

The last few days have been very productive for Real Madrid, both on and off the pitch. Jose Mourinho's side defeated Inter Milan 2-1 in their opening match of the 2026-27 Champions League, while there have also been major breakthroughs regarding new contracts for multiple key players.
In the last 24 hours, it was revealed that Arda Guler has committed to a new contract, with the Türkiye international set to extend his stay at the Bernabeu until 2032. Fellow midfielder Jude Bellingham is also in the process of agreeing a renewal, as Real Madrid bosses seek to tie down two players that are seen as the present and future of the first team.
Now, there is further good news for Real Madrid fans, with Fabrizio Romano reporting that Thibaut Courtois has agreed to extend his stay at the Bernabeu. The veteran goalkeeper's current deal is due to expire at the end of the 2026-27 season, although he has committed to remaining at the club for at least one more year.
Courtois has been a fantastic servant for Real Madrid over the last eight years. Having joined from Chelsea in the summer of 2018, the Belgian has already racked up 338 appearances across all competitions, and he should significantly add to this number by the time he leaves the club, whenever that may be.
Courtois has already spoken of his desire to retire at Real Madrid, and if he continues to perform at a very high level, there is a good chance that his wish is granted – especially given that the club has yet to secure a long-term replacement. The decision on this matter will come when the time is right, but for now, all that matters is the Belgian shot-stopper will remain at the Bernabeu until the summer of 2028 at the very least.

Real Madrid have started the new season in excellent fashion, barring one small blip against Real Betis in La Liga.
Despite creating a truckload of chances against the Andalusian side, Los Blancos were unable to find a way past Alvaro Valles in Betis' goal.
Madrid's bright start to the season has to be attributed to the form of their superstars, including Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham.
The latter has picked up from where he left off for England at the 2026 World Cup, scoring goals and influencing games for Jose Mourinho's side.
Now, according to Fabrizio Romano, Real Madrid have opened active negotiations with Jude over a new contract at the club.

Liverpool are reportedly set to lose a talented prospect from their academy to one of their biggest rivals.
The Reds have made a happy habit of acquiring prodigious gems from the underage setups of other clubs across the UK, with Harvey Elliott (Fulham), Rio Ngumoha (Chelsea) and Trey Nyoni (Leicester) among the standout examples in recent years.
However, the shoe is now on the other foot as a certain club from along the M62 put the final touches on the signing of an up-and-coming talent from Merseyside.
On Monday evening, Fabrizio Romano took to X to report that Manchester United have completed a deal to sign Liverpool academy midfielder Isaac Konde, with the Italian including his trademark 'here we go'.
The 16-year-old is 'all set' to join the Red Devils after 'formal steps' were completed over the past couple of days.

Roma, barring any surprises, will not intervene in the free agent market.
According to Fabrizio Romano, the Giallorossi have decided not to rush and will wait until the January transfer window to complete their squad, especially the attacking winger.
In recent days, Roma have reportedly been offered Raphaël Guerreiro, a free agent following his last stint at Bayern Munich.
The Portuguese's profile, however, apparently failed to fully convince Gian Piero Gasperini, and a formal negotiation never materialized. Guerreiro therefore remains in search of a new club.
A similar situation applies to Jadon Sancho, another name floated by the Giallorossi management.

Manchester United have completed the signing of Isaac Konde from Liverpool, with Fabrizio Romano on X reporting the deal. For Liverpool, it is a frustrating departure. For United, it is another example of a clear academy recruitment strategy focused on securing elite teenage talent before pathways become more established elsewhere.
Konde is highly regarded in youth circles and has built a strong reputation as an explosive attacking player. He is most effective from the left, although his flexibility across the front line is understood to be a major part of his appeal. He can play from either flank and also through the middle, which makes him a valuable profile for any academy structure looking to develop adaptable forwards.
The 16-year-old featured for Liverpool Under-18s last season, but his next step will now come at Manchester United, where he is expected to begin with the Under-18s setup. From United's perspective, the move aligns closely with the wider approach being shaped at academy level, an area viewed internally as central to both sporting progress and long-term value creation.
That context matters. United have placed increasing emphasis on attracting top prospects from around the country, and Konde's arrival fits squarely within that model. He joins a system that already contains major young attacking talent, including JJ Gabriel, and his addition is likely to raise standards and competition in the age group immediately.
For Liverpool, losing a promising young attacker to a domestic rival will sting. Academy football can be unpredictable, and not every prospect reaches senior level, but clubs still work hard to retain the ones viewed as having genuine upside. Konde clearly falls into that category, and this is the kind of move that will be noticed closely by those tracking youth development at both clubs.

Manchester United's pursuit of a new left-back ultimately ended in disappointment this summer. The Red Devils spent much of the transfer window focusing on midfield reinforcements, signing Andrey Santos, Youri Tielemans, and Carlos Baleba.
The left-back position was also a priority for the English giants this summer, especially with Luke Shaw already on the wrong side of 30. The veteran full-back's contract expires at the end of this season, further complicating matters for INEOS.
While the Englishman started every Premier League game last season, it was imperative to lay down succession plans for the future. Several emerging and established candidates were monitored for the role, including Newcastle United's Lewis Hall, Barcelona's Alejandro Balde, and RB Leipzig's David Raum.
Unfortunately, United failed to land any of their left-back targets and ended the summer without adding cover for Shaw to their squad. Acclaimed journalist Fabrizio Romano has now named a surprise candidate who was also eyed as an option for the job.

The 2026 summer transfer window closed this Tuesday in Europe. Several last-gasp deals were made official... or collapsed late last night or overnight, while we were all already asleep.
OneFootball brings you a recap of the major announcements from the night:
- Double thunderbolt for Monaco! Lamine Camara will ultimately not be joining Chelsea, just as Folarin Balogun will not be signing for Everton either! AS Monaco cancelled the deal for the Senegal international just when they thought they had finally managed to sell their American striker. Chelsea are furious, and the Monégasques have just waved goodbye to around €100 million. (Fabrizio Romano, RMC, Foot Mercato)
- After an endless saga and absurd twists and turns, Malick Fofana has finally signed for Sunderland. The transfer fee is estimated at €35 million including bonuses.
- Quinten Timber has left OM for Crystal Palace in a deal estimated at €20 million.

Atlético de Madrid on Tuesday pulled out of negotiations with Olympique Lyonnais to sign veteran left-back Nicolás Tagliafico before the summer transfer window shut.
Atlético's interest in Argentina international Tagliafico first came to us via David Medina and Isaac Suárez in Marca. Atlético were seeking a backup for Alejandro Grimaldo after long negotiations for Racing Santander teenager Jorge Salinas fell apart Tuesday; Salinas is staying at Racing after no club paid his €16 million release clause.
Tagliafico had been in negotiations to join Juventus before Atlético entered the race. According to Fabrizio Romano **** ociate Matteo Moretto, Tagliafico spoke directly to Diego Simeone and prioritized a move to Atleti, having accepted his role would be as a substitute. To make room for Tagliafico and his roughly €3 million gross salary, Mateu Alemany had to clear **** e in the squad by finding new destinations for multiple players, including Josema Giménez, Thomas Lemar, Carlos Martín and Obed Vargas.
While the sporting director moved out Giménez and Lemar on deadline day, Vargas and Carlos Martín stayed. That meant Atleti could not move forward with a Tagliafico transfer, especially as Lyon could not secure a replacement. French media first reported its collapse before Spanish media corroborated later in the day.
Tagliafico, who turned 34 on Monday, has spent the previous four seasons playing for Lyon, but the French side's aggregate loss to Fenerbahçe in the UEFA Champions League play-off round last week has put it in a bind. With Champions League income lost, Lyon need to sell players, and Tagliafico — entering the final year of his contract — was poised to be one of the casualties.

Lamine Camara (22) is currently undergoing a medical ahead of a move to Chelsea from Monaco before the transfer deadline, according to a report from Fabrizio Romano. As reported by RMC Sport, the Premier League club have reached an agreement in the region of €50m plus bonuses to sign the Senegalese international midfielder before the transfer window closes.
Chelsea had been in negotiations with Les Monégasques throughout deadline day to sign the 22-year-old as they searched for a replacement for Enzo Fernández (25), who looks set to join Manchester City for a record-equalling British fee of £125m. The Côte d'Azur outfit originally commanded a fee in the region of €70m, due to their lack of need to sell with Folarin Balogun seemingly joining Everton. However, after the USMNT forward failed his medical, the club have been forced to negotiate with the Blues at a much lower price in order to raise funds before the end of the window. Everything now points towards Camara joining the Blues.

Eintracht Frankfurt attacker Jean-Mattéo Bahoya is set to join Leeds United after the Premier League side moved decisively for the 21-year-old on deadline day. Sky Germany, Sport Bild and The Athletic all report that Leeds entered concrete negotiations with Frankfurt on Tuesday. Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano subsequently reports that an agreement has been reached on a loan deal containing a mandatory €30m purchase clause.
The development comes just two days after another proposed move to England collapsed. Get German Football News reported on Sunday that Bahoya had personally rejected a transfer to Hull City despite Frankfurt and the newly-promoted Premier League side having already reached a verbal agreement at club level.
Frankfurt nevertheless remained prepared to negotiate a late departure for the France U21 international. Bahoya joined Eintracht from Angers SCO for approximately €8m in January 2024 and remains under contract through 2029. The winger has since made 78 competitive appearances for the RheinMain club, registering 15 scorer points.
A €30m permanent transfer would consequently leave Frankfurt with a significant profit on a player currently valued at €25m by Transfermarkt.
Bahoya required some time to establish himself after arriving from Angers, but gradually developed into one of Frankfurt's more intriguing young attacking players. The Frenchman spoke about overcoming his difficult initial adjustment to life in Germany last October, crediting Eintracht's French-speaking contingent with helping him settle both on and off the pitch.

Former Real Madrid star Dani Ceballos has secured a deadline day return to Spanish football's top-flight. This comes amid widespread confirmation that the 30-year-old has linked back up with Real Betis.
Midfielder Ceballos has for his part spent the entirety of the summer window to date searching for his next landing spot. Released from his contract a year early by the aforementioned Real Madrid, the one-time ******* nal man was subsequently linked with a whole host of clubs across Spain and Europe alike.
The most persistent in seeking out his signature throughout, though, were those in the boardroom at the aforementioned Real Betis.
After departing the Verdiblancos all the way back in 2017, Ceballos has been tipped for a return to Seville at some point or another almost every summer since.
And as alluded to above, on Tuesday, the saga has finally reached a positive close. As per a report from transfer market journalist Fabrizio Romano:

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, FC Barcelona consider their transfer window closed, in terms of incoming, following the arrival of Gabriel Jesus earlier today.
The Brazilian striker was signed from ****** nal in a deal worth €10 million plus €4 million in add-ons, and has penned a three-year contract until 2029.
And, as per Romano, this will be it for the Catalans as far as new signings are concerned, with no other incomings expected on the transfer deadline day.
If true, it would mean that Barcelona have already given up on their efforts to sign Ruud Nijstad from FC Twente.
The sporting department, led by Deco, has identified the 18-year-old defender as a key target to add a left-footed centre-back to the squad before the window closes.

AS Monaco forward Folarin Balogun (25) is now all set for a switch to Everton after the USMNT forward reached an agreement on personal terms with the Premier League club, according to a report from Fabrizio Romano.
Monaco have been open to selling the USMNT forward all summer. The former ***** nal man had an excellent campaign last time around and significantly bolstered his value. His value was enhanced further thanks to his performances for the USMNT at the FIFA World Cup. He was one of three players earmarked for an exit at the start of the summer alongside Maghnes Akliouche and Lamine Camara. The sale of Aladji Bamba to Newcastle United could allow Monaco to retain the latter.
However, unlike Camara, Balogun was keen to leave the Principality club. ASM, meanwhile, moved early in the window to secure his replacement in the form of Matthis Abline. By freeing up a non-EU spot, Monaco will also be able to finalise the arrival of Erik Lira.
An agreement between Monaco and Everton was struck on Monday night. The deal is worth a fixed fee of €45m plus an extra €5m in bonuses. An agreement has now been reached with Balogun himself. The former ***** nal forward is set to sign with the Merseyside club for four years. He has now been authorised to travel for a medical.

As we head into the final day of the transfer window, the Enzo Fernández situation remains unresolved. It's only been going on for the whole summer, after all (if not longer), so there's been hardly any time to get it done, right?
Our (former?) Vice-captain has been training with the team, but he's been held out of our first three games, either at his own request or by the coach's decision or by the sporting directors', or by a combination of all. Chelsea tried to set a deadline before the start of the season for Manchester City (or any other team) to bid, but all that's done is make it even more frustrating that we're still in limbo. That deadline was then retconned to be a deadline for "bids of (at least) £120m", which just means that we now have to talk about a fee as well.
But, at long last, we are actually talking, club-to-club through official channels, as per all the usual talking heads at the transfer rumor mill content farm, like Fabrizio Romano and David Ornstein, and all the rest.
Whether these talks will lead to anything here on the final day is anyone's guess. Romano is just playing up the drama as usual, but Ornstein, speaking on BBC Sport, claims that Chelsea would only really consider doing business if we could somehow come out ahead not just in the books but on the pitch as well. And that would mean getting someone in to replace Enzo in some way, shape, or form. But links with Lamine Camara of AS Monaco, Manu Koné of AS Roma, and Alex Scott of AFC Bournemouth have all led to the same narrative dead end, and now there's hardly any time left.
Forcing players to stay is never a good idea, but sometimes it's not the worst thing.

In a recent post on X, respected journalist Fabrizio Romano offered an update on Manchester City and their pursuit of Liverpool winger Cody Gakpo. It is believed that the Mancunian club are confident about recruiting the Dutch talent once the Reds find a replacement for him in this transfer window.
Gakpo enjoyed a good run of form at the Merseyside club but struggled to be consistent for them in the Premier League. Still, the 27-year-old deserves credit for scoring nine times and picking up six **** ists in 52 matches for Liverpool last season across all fronts.
The Dutch sensation is currently among the most talented wide players in Premier League football. Therefore, it is no surprise that Man City are eager to land him in this transfer window.
His current contract at Anfield will run out in the summer of 2030, so the Mancunian club would do well to get a deal done for him before the end of this month.

For the second straight summer, Juventus and Atlético Madrid have agreed to a loan deal involving a player who had a bit of a struggle during his first season in Turin with the hope that Spain cures some of those previous ills.
Last summer it was Nico Gonzalez, who is now back in Turin and looks set to stay after scoring the game-winning goal against Parma over the weekend. This summer, it's Canadian striker Jonathan David, whose first season in Turin could be described as quite the difficult one with not very many goals scored.
According to multiple reports out of Italy and Spain on Monday, Juventus at Atlético Madrid have agreed to a season-long loan deal for David. It ends a 12-month period in Turin in which David's struggles were vastly superior to good moments he showed under Igor Tudor and then especially Luciano Spalletti. David, who arrived on a free transfer from Lille and was subsequently handed a contract by former sporting chief Damien Comolli that made him one of the highest earners on the team, will now head to Atléti in hopes of following the same kind of path that Gonzalez did during the 2025-26 season. But as we found out with Nico, it doesn't necessarily equate to Atlético Madrid actually activating the buy option that they will have in the deal.
Said buy option is around €25 million, according to Fabrizio Romano. There are apparently no set clauses worked into the deal — it is very much a loan with option to buy situation.
The move to La Liga is the chance for David to get his career back on track after his performances with Juventus resulted in the lowest goal tally of his career, scoring just six goals in 35 appearances in Serie A last season. Once he got in a funk, it was tough for him to get out of it, and it was reflected in how his minutes suffered as a result as the season went on under Spalletti.

Juventus are still hoping to shift Jonathan David before the close of the summer transfer window and the latest updates claim that Atletico Madrid have submitted a formal offer for the Canada international.
David joined Juventus on a free transfer last summer after five productive years in Ligue 1 with Lille, but failed to convince in Serie A in a disappointing season on a personal and collective level, which resulted in a fifth-place finish and no Champions League football for 2026-27.

Juventus have already brought in a new centre-forward this summer in Randal Kolo Muani, considered a direct replacement for Dusan Vlahovic, but the Bianconeri are also hoping to replace David before the end of the window as well.
According to the latest reports from Fabrizio Romano, Atletico Madrid have recently submitted an official offer to sign David on loan with an option to buy and that the Canada international is 'open' to joining Diego Simeone's side.

Juventus have reached an agreement with Tottenham Hotspur to sign midfielder Pape Matar Sarr, according to transfer reporter Fabrizio Romano.
The 'talented' Senegal international will join Juventus in a deal worth up to €30 million, starting with an initial loan that includes an option to buy.
However, the option to buy will become mandatory if certain performance-related conditions are met, such as Juventus qualifying for the Champions League and Sarr reaching set appearance targets during the campaign.
Talks between the clubs accelerated after Sarr requested a new challenge away from North London.
The midfielder faced increased competition for places under Roberto De Zerbi following the additions of moves for Mateus Fernandes and Sandro Tonali.

After the move was held up for several weeks, Tottenham Hotspur have now given Mikey Moore permission to join 1. FC Köln, according to Sky Germany and Fabrizio Romano.
The 19-year-old is set to join the Billy Goats on a season-long loan, with his medical examination expected to take place shortly.
Köln have reportedly been in agreement with Moore for some time, but the deal stalled while Tottenham waited for attacking reinforcements to arrive.
Moore has made three appearances for Tottenham's first team this season, racking up one goal and one ******* ist.
He spent last season as a regular starter for Rangers FC on loan.

Manchester United's interest in Alejandro Balde has hit a financial obstacle, with the Premier League club understood to believe Barcelona's valuation of the left-back is too high.
According to Fabrizio Romano, the latest discussions between Manchester United and Barcelona took place on Sunday, with Balde's agent Jorge Mendes ensuring the English club was aware of the conditions for a potential transfer.
United, who are looking to strengthen at left-back, were primarily interested in taking the Spain international on loan.
Barcelona, though, have made their position clear: they want a permanent transfer if Balde is to leave.
Mendes has informed Manchester United that, as things stand, Barcelona's preference is a permanent transfer or nothing, leaving the two clubs some distance apart, particularly because Balde himself remains keen to stay at Camp Nou.

His brother has won the Champions League twice; now he himself is being drawn to the Bundesliga. There is likely something to celebrate in the Doué household, as Guela Doué, the brother of PSG star Désiré Doué, apparently is on the verge of a move to Bayer Leverkusen.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano and kicker, Bayer are set to pay around €38 million to RC Strasbourg.
The 23-year-old right-back only still has to complete his medical, and then nothing will stand in the way of signing the contract.
That would make the Ivory Coast international Leverkusen's most expensive new signing, overtaking Malik Tillman. Tillman was signed from PSV in 2025 for €35 million.
It would likely be the next transfer coup for Bayer, after media reports had already confirmed the return of Moussa Diaby (just under €30 million). Bayer's transfer spending, which already stands at €99 million, is therefore likely to rise significantly once again.

Liverpool are heading into the closing days of the summer window with multiple moving parts, and the sense around Anfield is that business may not yet be finished. According to Fabrizio Romano on his YouTube channel, supporters should be alert to the possibility of a late twist in the club's search for attacking cover.
The broad picture is already significant. Liverpool are reported to be closing in on Bradley Barcola in a deal that could rise to £123m, a move that would underline serious intent in the market. At the same time, Cody Gakpo's future appears less certain amid interest from Manchester City. If that situation develops further, Liverpool may be forced to act quickly for another winger before the deadline.
The key update centres on who could arrive if Gakpo leaves. The latest line is clear: "For Liverpool fans, we have to understand who's going to be the replacement. It could be at any moment so stay tuned. It could be in the next hours." That wording points to a live situation, one where Liverpool are keeping options open rather than locking themselves into a single outcome too early.
One name firmly in the frame is Ismaila Sarr. The position at present is that Liverpool remain engaged after an earlier attempt was knocked back. Romano added: "For sure, Liverpool maintain active contacts with the agents of Ismaila Sarr. They already had a bid rejected by Crystal Palace. They remain in conversations with all parties involved. Let's see if it's going to be Ismaila Sarr or a new surprising option in the final hours of the summer transfer window."
That update says plenty about the challenge facing Liverpool. Crystal Palace are rarely easy to negotiate with late in a window, especially when time pressure shifts leverage towards the selling club. If Sarr is the preferred solution, Liverpool may need to move decisively and accept that the terms could be tough.

Fabrizio Romano has advised Liverpool fans to 'stay tuned' for the possibility of a 'surprising' transfer to Anfield in the final three days of the summer transfer window.
The Reds are reportedly on the verge of completing the marquee addition of Bradley Barcola from Paris Saint-Germain in a deal which could reach £123m, but it seems increasingly likely that Cody Gakpo may be on his way out of Merseyside amid a prospective bid from Manchester City.
Even if those two transfers materialise, it appears that Richard Hughes could seek to bring in one more winger before the Tuesday night deadline.
Romano posted an update on his eponymous YouTube channel on Sunday morning in which he indicated that Liverpool haven't given up on a potential last-minute swoop for Ismaila Sarr and could yet pivot to a different option in the next 48 hours.
He explained: "For Liverpool fans, we have to understand who's going to be the replacement. It could be at any moment so stay tuned. It could be in the next hours.

Hull City look to be moving with real purpose in the transfer market. According to GFFN, citing Fabrizio Romano, the club have reached an agreement in principle with Eintracht Frankfurt for Jean-Mattéo Bahoya. The next step is simple enough, the player must decide.
That matters, because Bahoya is not short of options. Everton have also been linked, and when a 21-year-old French attacker with Bundesliga experience becomes available, interest tends to follow. Hull, though, have put themselves in position. That is the key point here.
Bahoya is primarily a left winger, but modern recruitment is about more than one fixed role. He can operate across the front line and offers the sort of positional flexibility Premier League squads need. For a promoted club, that has obvious value. You do not always buy specialists, you buy players who can solve several problems at once.

His numbers are respectable rather than spectacular. After joining Frankfurt from Angers in January 2024 for €8m, he made 33 appearances in all competitions in his first full season, scoring three goals and adding four ***** ists. In 2025-26, he featured 37 times, with four goals and four ***** ists. Those are not elite outputs, but they suggest development, availability and trust from coaches in a demanding environment.

After failing to sign Jayden Oosterwolde, Roma have accelerated their pursuit of Marseille's Leonardo Balerdi.
The Argentine defender has spent the last six seasons with the French club and is now ready for a move to the capital.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Marseille has given their final approval and the deal can be considered closed.
The agreement between Roma and the French club includes a one-million-euro loan, with a €20 million option to buy, which can be converted into a mandatory buyout upon reaching a certain number of appearances, around 70%.
The player will land at Ciampino Airport at 5:45 PM.

Fabrizio Romano has confirmed a player's fate and we believe that's fantastic news for Liverpool. The Reds can react.
Liverpool have been in the market for a new forward this summer. It's proven a massive struggle to land one, however, especially as a direct replacement for Mohamed Salah.
The market on the right simply hasn't been there. Liverpool tried for Yan Diomande but failed to get him, with the Ivorian ending up at Real Madrid.
That, however, presented another opportunity. Endrick is a player we rate highly here at Anfield Watch and we've gone in-depth as to why here.
The Brazilian is a rare talent, potentially in the mould of Roberto Firmino but also one who doesn't appear to have a place at Real Madrid. Not after Diomande and Carlos Espi arrived, anyway.
