The Big Game

A game that had it all. Arsenal vs Manchester United was a nail-biting encounter but ultimately the Gunners took home the points after two goals in extra time.

The European Transfer Window has closed but a few huge signings were made just before it closed:

Barcelona boosted by two big players. João Cancelo (loan from Manchester City) and João Félix (loan from Athletico Madrid).

PSG completed the signing of Randal Kolo Muani from Eintracht Frankfurt. Not a bad summer for the French Champions.

Manchester United completed the signings of Sergio Reguilón and Sofyan Amrabat.

Ryan Gravenberch joins Liverpool on a permanent deal from Bayern.

Benjamin Pavard signs for Inter Milan. Cole Palmer joins Chelsea on £40m deal plus add-ons from Manchester City.
