This summer transfer market has a significant trend: many high-value players have been shown the door by their clubs, or are in an uncomfortable position within their teams.
Looking around Europe, it’s possible to form a very respectable Top 11, with some clubs particularly involved in this phenomenon. Let’s take a look at the lineup set up in a 4-2-3-1 formation.
Gigio Donnarumma
PSG bought Chevalier for 40 million and Donnarumma’s contract expires in 2026: as of today, a renewal seems far off and the club could listen to offers for his sale. Manchester City and Bayern (according to Pedullà) are interested in the goalkeeper, while for Italian clubs it could only be an opportunity on a free transfer in 2026.
Raul Asencio
The Real Madrid full-back has not convinced with his recent performances at the Club World Cup and is therefore on the club’s transfer list. Furthermore, the 2003-born player is involved in a legal case: the Spanish Prosecutor’s Office has reportedly requested two and a half years in prison for an alleged crime. Here are the details.
Lloyd Kelly
Kelly has not proven to be worth the 20 million spent by Juventus (between loan and purchase), so the Bianconeri are looking for a solution for the player: recently Sunderland have made inquiries about him, and Juve values him at 18 million.
Renato Veiga
After his loan at Juventus, Chelsea has also decided not to keep Renato Veiga. Not even Colwill’s injury in defense changed the Blues’ mind. As reported by Fabrizio Romano, the player himself also wants to leave and several clubs have already shown interest in him.
Sacha Boey
Bayern Munich has not been satisfied with Sacha Boey, the right-back signed for 30 million from Galatasaray in January 2024. The player has lost value and is on the market, but he would like to stay in Bavaria and try to regain the club’s trust.
Douglas Luiz
Arriving with great hype, Douglas Luiz has not lived up to expectations at Juventus and is now almost separated from the Bianconeri. The midfielder did not show up for the first days of training camp and later apologized: the parties will part ways, but the asking price of around 40 million makes his sale difficult.
Marc Casadò
After getting a lot of playing time at Barcelona last season, the 2003-born midfielder Marc Casadò has been put on the market by the Blaugrana. The club believes they have too many midfielders and—according to AS—are asking 30 million for his transfer.
Sancho, Hojlund and Antony
The attacking midfielders in our 4-2-3-1 are all from Manchester United: Sancho, after his loan at Chelsea, is set to leave, as is Antony, who performed well at Betis Sevilla. Recently, Hojlund has also been left out and is in contact with Milan, given the very limited playing time in attack after the signings of Sesko, Cunha, and Mbeumo.
Dusan Vlahovic
The situation is stationary for Vlahovic: 12 million net salary, one year left on his contract, and Juventus waiting for the right offer to sell him. The likely signing of Kolo Muani and the presence of Jonathan David would further reduce his playing time, and the message is clear: the Serbian is on the market.
