Club World Cup looms: top deals of the first summer window | OneFootball

Whoops, it's already closed again! The special transfer window for the Club World Cup is already behind us. For this, Europe's top clubs have once again loosened their purse strings and already bagged some top deals. Here's an overview of the biggest transfers.

Matheus Cunha

Although Manchester United is not participating in the Club World Cup, they still made the biggest deal of the first transfer window. The 'Red Devils' are paying almost 75 million euros to the Wolves for the former Hertha player, reports 'kicker'. The 26-year-old striker recently scored 15 goals in 33 appearances. No wonder then, that the top scorer of the Wanderers was not cheap to get.

Dean Huijsen

Another Premier League professional who switched. However, not on the island, but from the island away to Real Madrid. AFC Bournemouth receives a transfer fee of 58 million euros for the 20-year-old, according to 'Sky'. As the TV channel also reports, Borussia Dortmund had already agreed with the central defender last summer, but in the end they decided to go for Waldemar Anton. Huijsen, on the other hand, moved to the PL and has now made the leap to the Royals.

Rayan Cherki

Speaking of Borussia Dortmund: The Black and Yellows were already interested in the Frenchman in winter, but now Manchester City has snapped up the 21-year-old, who has signed a contract with the Skyblues until 2030. According to 'The Athletic" Lyon receives around 40 million euros. A resale participation and bonuses are also said to have been agreed.

Rayan Aït-Nouri

Another Rayan. The Wolves defender signed a five-year contract with ManCity and is said to have cost the Skyblues another 40 million euros.

After a season without trophies, the PL club probably doesn't want to remain titleless any longer. The Club World Cup now offers the first opportunity.

Tijani Reijnders

Third time's a charm! Manchester City has been able to sign Tijani in addition to the two Rayans. Reijnders officially joined the Skyblues before the deadline and will travel to the Club World Cup. For this, City paid almost 71 million euros to AC Milan, according to 'The Athletic'.

Jobe Bellingham

The next Bellingham for Borussia Dortmund: Jobe Bellingham is also flying with the Black and Yellows to the Club World Cup, the deal was made official on Tuesday. As reported by 'kicker', among others, the Borussians are paying 30 million euros to AFC Sunderland. Bonuses could add another five million euros. So far, Ousmane Dembélé is the most expensive purchase in Dortmund's club history with 35 million euros. The brother of Jude signed a contract with the Westphalians until 2030.

Trent Alexander-Arnold

It was supposed to be a free transfer, but to participate in the Club World Cup, Real Madrid did end up paying money to Liverpool FC. According to 'ESPN' and 'Sky Sports', ten million euros have been paid. They also take over the defender's June salary. TAA has signed a contract with the Royals until 2031.

Jonathan Tah

Bayern Munich didn't have to pay as much money as Real Madrid to be able to sign Jonathan Tah earlier. According to 'Sky Sport', the German record champion transfers 800,000 euros to Leverkusen. Depending on the performance at the Club World Cup, the sum could increase to one million. The DFB star has signed a contract in Munich until 2029.

Tom Bischof

Another German national player who gets to go to the Club World Cup. A transfer fee is also due for the former Hoffenheim player, but it is even lower than for Tah. Between 250,000 (according to 'Sky') and 300,000 euros (according to 'kicker') Bayern are said to pay to TSG. Here too, the sum could be higher due to bonuses.
