The transfer market has been absolutely buzzing this week, pet! The biggest shock came from the East Midlands as Leicester splashed a massive ₷32.5M SVC to secure 82-rated Senegalese defender Mikayil Faye from Rennes. At just 21 years old, Faye is seen as a cornerstone for the Foxes' future. Not to be outdone in the spending department, Bolton have also dipped into their pockets, bringing in 82-rated Austrian talent Marijan Österreicher for a cool ₷11.5M SVC. It’s sound to see clubs investing big in youth this early in the season.

Over at Molineux, it’s the start of a new era as Wolverhampton officially appointed TheCryptoPope as their new manager today. He takes over a club with one of the healthiest bank balances in the game—over ₷286M SVC—after the long-serving Blade stepped down. The pressure will be on to see if he can turn that financial power into trophies. Meanwhile, Wigan have brought in TacticKing and Crewe have appointed Wakey as the managerial merry-go-round continues to spin across England.

It’s not all good news, though, as the physio rooms are starting to fill up. Newcastle fans will be gutted to hear that young star Lewis Miley is facing a 64-day layoff with a minor injury. Liverpool are also feeling the pinch, with both Alisson Becker (15 days) and Ryan Gravenberch (18 days) sidelined, while Manchester Blue will be without Nathan Aké for the next 28 days. These absences could really shake up the table in the coming weeks, darlin'.

Finally, some clubs are focusing on stability rather than spending. Girona have been incredibly busy locking down their squad, with John Lundstram and Bojan Miovski among a host of players signing new contract extensions. Blackburn followed suit, securing the futures of Dominic Hyam and Owen Beck. It’s a smart move to keep the core together while the market around them goes mental. Stay tuned, hinny, because this season is only just getting started!
