David Ornstein Breaks Down Biggest PL Transfers: Enzo Fernandez, Morgan Rogers, Bradley Barcola
High Performance BusinessShow Notes
The Premier League has just come through another record-breaking transfer window, with billions spent and some of the biggest fees football has ever seen. But who actually got it right?
Natalie Perks and Colin Murray break down the winners, losers, bargains and biggest gambles of the window, from Chelsea’s profitable summer and Everton’s deadline-day panic to the growing number of £100m+ deals across the league.
They’re joined by The Athletic’s David Ornstein, one of football’s leading transfer reporters, to explain why prices have exploded, how the Premier League’s new financial rules are changing the market, why clubs are trading with each other more than ever — and whether football’s spending boom can actually continue.
Plus, David reveals what transfer deadline day is really like behind the scenes, Colin revisits one of football’s strangest ever signings, and the episode ends with a transfer-record pub quiz.
