In this week's Between The Lines, Nick Wright analyses the 2025 summer transfer window and reveals how Liverpool and Chelsea have smashed previous records.

Aston Villa

Aston Villa completed their deadline day signings of Jadon Sancho , Harvey Elliott and Victor Lindelof to provide Unai Emery with some much-needed reinforcements, but it wasn't enough to satisfy our readers!

Bournemouth

Bournemouth made £202.5m by selling defenders Dean Heysen , Ilja Zabarny and Milos Kerkez , as well as striker Dango Ouattara . On the final day of the season, the Cherries strengthened their defence with Veljko Milosavljevic and Alex Jimenez , taking their spending to £136.7m and earning a positive valuation.

Brentford

Look away! Brentford have lost captain Christian Norgaard and strikers Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissou , as well as manager Thomas Frank , in a summer that will never be forgotten.

Brighton

Brighton have had a quiet season by their standards, as reflected in the Sky Sports readers' verdict. Perhaps their best signing was the retention of Carlos Baleba , who was wanted by Manchester United.

Burnley

Premier League newcomers Burnley have splashed out almost £100m on 14 new players to boost their chances of survival, spending a total of £43m on Chelsea duo Leslie Ugochukwu and Armando Broja . Will it pay off?

Chelsea

Todd Boehly became another record-breaking transfer window signing for Chelsea, spending £296.5m but returning £314.4m, confirming the club's reputation for being one of the best players to sell.

Crystal Palace

That vote could continue to shift in the coming hours, oscillating between bad and average after Marc Guehi's move to Liverpool collapsed late on deadline day. Some Crystal Palace fans will be happy for him to stay, while others will feel the club should have been paid for it.

Everton

David Moyes spent much of the summer desperately scrambling to sign new players, and the signings of Jack Grealish and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall have already begun to bear fruit in the Premier League, with more than 70 per cent of readers approving their signings, the most of any club.

Fulham

Fulham made a late signing of striker Kevin for a club-record £34.6m from Shakhtar Donetsk and secured a loan move to Bayern Munich. forward John Kusi-Asare , but it has still been a disappointing summer for Marco Silva's side.

Leeds

Leeds have spent over £100m on the likes of Jaka Bijol , Anton Stach , Lucas Perry , Noah Okafor and James Justin but have made virtually no money despite battling for Premier League survival. Sky Sports readers have been largely unable to decide whether their transfer window has been mediocre or a failure.

Liverpool

Liverpool's record £446m transfer window has earned them a single 'perfect' rating – and it would have been even better if Marc Guehi's transfer had gone through!

The champions have made three of the summer's biggest signings – Alexander Isak for a club-record £125m, Florian Wirtz for £116.5m and Hugo Ekitikey for £79m.

After Liverpool confirmed the £125m signing of Alexander Isak, Sky Sports News discussed how the Reds funded their record-breaking summer.

Manchester City

Manchester City have continued their rebuild this summer, with club legends Kevin De Bruyne , Kyle Walker and Ederson leaving and £185m spent on the next generation of Ryan Aita Nouri , Tijani Reynders , James Trafford and Gianluigi Donnarumma . However, our readers are not too impressed.

Manchester United

The signings of big-name players such as Bryan Mbeumo , Matheus Cunha and Benjamin Cesco helped boost Manchester United's spending to £232.4m, while the club also managed to sell Marcus Rashford , Jadon Sancho , Alejandro Garnacho , Rasmus Hjøjlund and Anthony .

However, without the midfield reinforcements, more than 40 per cent of readers thought their window was merely average, although 35 per cent thought it was positive.

Newcastle

Newcastle endured a difficult summer but ended it by selling Alexander Isak for a British record fee, spending a club-record £69m on striker Nick Waltemade and then landing Yoane Wissa in the final 30 seconds of Deadline Day.

In addition to signing Anthony Elangi , Malik Thiaw and Jacob Ramsey , Eddie Howe's side have had a positive turnaround.

Nottingham Forest

Relations at Forest have been tense this summer but the club have stepped up their activity in the final days of the transfer window, signing six players in two weeks to plaudits from Sky Sports readers.

Sunderland

Sunderland are not just the best club to be promoted this transfer window, they are one of the best in the league!

They have given themselves every chance of survival by splashing out £183.4m on FIFTEEN signings, with the most prominent of these, Granit Xhaka , already producing well.

Tottenham

Tottenham's transfer window verdict was split between average and very good after signing Xavi Simons , but only after they lost out to rivals Arsenal for Eberechi Eze .

Have they done enough in the market ahead of the Champions League?

West Ham

West Ham sold Mohamed Kudus to Tottenham for £55m and attempted to replace him with Southampton's Matheus Fernandes in what was otherwise a quiet window, and is rated as average.

Wolves

Wolves became the fourth Premier League club to be relegated to the bottom after the departures of star players Matheus Cunha and Ryan Ait Nouri . However, things could have been worse as the club managed to keep striker Jorgen Strand Larsen despite interest from Newcastle.
