There are still a few months left in the Premier League title race, Champions League contests, competition for European spots, and even the threat of relegation for one of the top clubs.
However, teams are already looking ahead to the summer 2026 transfer window. Here’s an early look at potential dream signings for each club.
Arsenal
Arsenal’s main focus is on strengthening their left wing. While Sandro Tonali is their top target, they might benefit more from signing his teammate, Anthony Gordon. Gordon could bring much-needed pace and scoring ability to Arsenal’s attack, especially compared to the inconsistent Gabriel Martinelli.
Gordon’s goal-scoring skills in the Champions League are impressive, and he would likely have even more chances playing alongside creators like Kai Havertz and Martin Odegaard.
Chelsea
Chelsea definitely needs to improve their defense, which is their most significant weakness. It’s surprising they didn’t manage to sign Enzo Maresca despite his clear interest.
Kim Min-jae, having won titles at Napoli and Bayern Munich, would be an excellent addition. Despite some criticisms, he is a world-class defender and would immediately become Chelsea’s best center-back.
Liverpool
Liverpool spent heavily in the summer 2025 transfer window, but they still have significant gaps in their wing and midfield positions. With Mohamed Salah’s form declining and Cody Gakpo struggling, they need to bolster their forward options.
The young and talented Yan Diomande could be the ideal signing. He’s making waves with his skills at Leipzig, and Liverpool has successfully recruited players from Klopp’s former club before.
Manchester City
Manchester City might lose Rodri to Real Madrid. While he may stay at the Etihad for a while longer, it’s not guaranteed.
Imagine if City could acquire Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle United to partner with Rodri. This would be a strategic move in their title pursuit and enhance their midfield significantly.
Manchester United
Manchester United has several directions they could take and are interested in Diomande as well. However, they need to refresh their midfield options, given the current players’ struggles, even if Casemiro remains.
No single player could add more intensity than Elliot Anderson, who has emerged as a standout midfielder for Nottingham Forest this season. Ideally, United would bring in two new midfielders, but Anderson would make a big impact.
Tottenham Hotspur
It’s hard to see who would want to join Tottenham Hotspur right now, as they face potential relegation. Their biggest need is a deep-lying playmaker, though it seems unlikely that Adam Wharton will be among their targets. It would be remarkable to see a team featuring him, Archie Gray, Lucas Bergvall, and Xavi Simons together.
