Level Celebrates a Record-Breaking Football Summer Transfer Window
Another summer transfer window complete, and another significant one for Level’s football team. The transfer window is always one of the busiest and most important periods in football, and this summer was the biggest yet globally, with Premier League clubs alone spending more than £3.5 billion on new signings.
At Level, our transfer window work continues to grow year on year. This summer, the team advised on:
- Over 300 transactions
- Deals involving over £1.25 billion in total transfer fees
- More than 50 transactions acting for clubs
That included advising on some of the summer’s biggest moves:
- Enzo Fernández (Chelsea to Manchester City)
- Morgan Rogers (Aston Villa to Chelsea)
- Yan Diomande (RB Leipzig to Real Madrid)
- Anthony Gordon (Newcastle United to Barcelona)
- Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa to Al-Hilal)
The deals our team worked on involved:
- The joint-record fee ever paid by an English club
- A record fee for a British player
- Real Madrid’s record signing
- A record fee for an African player
- A record fee paid by an EFL club
These results reflect Level’s continued position as a go-to name in the football market, trusted by clubs, players, agents and other key stakeholders to advise on major deals across the global game.
