The Summer of Change: 10 Premier League Players Poised for Big Moves

The summer transfer window is always a time of great excitement and anticipation for football fans. This year, several Premier League players are likely to make big moves to new clubs, and we’ve identified 10 players who could be on the move.

Crystal Palace star Michael Olise

Michael Olise has been linked with a move to Chelsea, and it’s easy to see why. The 24-year-old winger has been in scintillating form for Crystal Palace, scoring 10 goals and assisting six in just 19 appearances for the Eagles. Olise has been performing consistently over the years for Crystal Palace, and has long been linked with a move away from the club.

Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher

Conor Gallagher, on the other hand, could be on his way out of Stamford Bridge. The 24-year-old midfielder had a terrific season with Chelsea, playing 50 games for the club and contributing to 16 goals all season. However, with the Blues looking to revamp their squad, Gallagher’s future at the club is uncertain.

Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite

Tall and talented, Jarrad Branthwaite had a breakthrough 2023/24 campaign for Everton. The 21-year-old played 35 Premier League games for the Toffees, scoring three goals for them as they finished 15th despite two separate points deductions. Branthwaite is one of the best young centre-backs in the world, and could be on the radar of several top clubs.

Nottingham Forest midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White

Morgan Gibbs-White has been the shining star in an otherwise bland Nottingham Forest squad. In his first season with Forest, Gibbs-White contributed to 13 goals for them, and in the 2023/24 season, he contributed to 15 goals for them, scoring five while assisting 10. Such prolific form from the youngster hasn’t gone unnoticed, and this could be the season he makes a move to a bigger club.

Brentford striker Ivan Toney

Ivan Toney has long been linked with a move away from Brentford FC. He scored 20 goals for the Bees in the 2022/23 season, and would have gotten his big move last summer if not for his lengthy eight-month ban. Toney is still one of the most prolific strikers in the Premier League, and could be on the move this summer.

West Ham midfielder Mohammed Kudus

Mohammed Kudus lit up the Premier League in his first season with West Ham. The Ghanian International finished the season with 17 goals and six assists for the Hammers, scoring against the likes of Manchester United, Manchester City, and Newcastle. Kudus is a highly sought-after player, and could be on the move this summer.

Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah

Another Chelsea player who could be on the move is Trevoh Chalobah. The 23-year-old defender is another Chelsea academy product whom the club is looking to offload to comply with the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Regulations.

Leicester City midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall was the main man for Leicester City in their fight for the Championship title. Dewsbury-Hall was one of the key players in Enzo Maresca’s system as Leicester City lifted the Championship title, scoring 12 goals and assisting a further 14 for the Foxes.

Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho

It’s safe to say that Jadon Sancho’s Manchester United career didn’t pan out the way it was supposed to. Sancho arrived to much fanfare in the summer of 2021, but has only managed to score 12 goals in 82 appearances for the club.

Crystal Palace midfielder Eberechi Eze

Eberechi Eze’s scintillating form in the 2023/24 season secured him a place in the England Euro squad. Eze is one of the best players in the Premier League, and could be on the move this summer.

Meanwhile, Manchester City are fighting against the Premier League on two fronts after the champions began a bid to sue the top flight this week. City chairman Khaldoon Al-Mubarek admitted that it’s frustrating to have the Premier League case hanging over Pep Guardiola’s team after they made history by winning a fourth successive title.

Former Chelsea boss Graham Potter could be set for a return to the Premier League, with Leicester City identifying him as their ideal candidate to be their next manager. Potter left Stamford Bridge in April last year after just seven months as Chelsea manager, and could be set for a reunion with the Blues.
