Hello Rank Squad!

With the international tournaments done and dusted (for now, we see you Olympics), it's time to take a look at some of the transfer stories that you might have missed over the last couple of weeks - in the shape of a ranking. We've put together a list of the teams who have come storming out of the blocks in this window - either to rectify the issues of the last campaign or consolidate ahead of the new one.

There's different ways of doing it - we discuss the youthful brilliance of Brighton's recruitment, Aston Villa's drive for depth, the brand-new midfield Juventus are hoping can inspire them back to glory, Bayern's Munich's big money overhaul, and of course the Galactico pull of Real Madrid - as well as looking at Benfica's business and Lyon's list.

Things We Love sees a discussion of Gareth Southgate stepping down and who Dean thinks are reasonable candidates to replace the man who's been in charge of England for the last eight years; and Jack's major problems with the UEFA Team of the Tournament from Euro 2024.

It's Ranks!
