Jamie Vardy, Christian Eriksen, Ashley Young – the Premier League free agents available
20 June 2025The summer transfer window is in full swing and Premier League clubs are busy strengthening their squads ready for the start of the 2025-26 season, which starts on 15 August when champions Liverpool play Bournemouth at Anfield.
There have already been some big deals struck.
Liverpool have agreed a £116m deal to sign Germany attacking midfielder Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen, and are in talks to sign Bournemouth’s Hungary left-back Milos Kerkez for a fee of around £40m-£45m.
Meanwhile, Brazil forward Matheus Cunha has completed a £62.5m move to Manchester United from Wolves, while Manchester City have confirmed the signing of AC Milan and Netherlands midfielder Tijjani Reijnders for an initial fee of £46.5m.
But there are plenty of bargains to be had, with many experienced Premier League players out of contract and available on a free transfer on 1 July.
Will they stay in England’s top-flight – or move elsewhere?
BBC Sport takes a look at some of them.
