Every transfer window has its handful of stories that warp the rest. This summer has four. Together they’ll redraw the top of the Premier League and the European elite.

One: Real Madrid’s next No. 9. Joselu’s contract is up. Endrick is 19. The names being floated — Osimhen, Watkins, Sesko — would all cost €100m+.

Two: Manchester United have €200m in committed transfer budget and three first-XI slots to fill. The list of credible options is shorter than the list of agents pitching their clients.
