This Week on FootballPX
The transfer window slams shut Monday at 7pm, and rumours are flying. We're spotlighting key movers who could see major value swings over the next few days — whether through big transfers or increased minutes.
🔄 Transfer Watch
K. Muani — €0.56
Spurs ➝ Juve
Once an €80m man. Can Juve be his redemption?
J. Strand Larsen — €0.25
Wolves ➝ Palace
Upgrade potential. Even half of Mateta's output could 3× his value.
R. Sterling — NA
Free ➝ Spurs
Not IPO'd yet — but a return to form could mean serious upside.
Endrick — NA
Madrid ➝ Lyon
80pts in 3 games. Still pre-IPO, but the ceiling is massive.
"NA" = not IPO'd / pre-IPO. Rumours move fast — prices can too. Treat this as a watchlist, not a guarantee.
Next up: Player of the Week (POTW). With the week running Friday → Thursday, there's plenty of time for late swings — and that's where weightings + double-headers do the heavy lifting.
