How the transfer centre works
Each row is one player and one destination. The stage moves from rumour to talks, agreed, medical and done deal as outlets report it — the furthest stage any trusted source has reached is what you see. The confidence score reflects how many reliable sources agree; a single-tabloid rumour scores low, a Romano or BBC report scores high. Open a saga for its full timeline.
- RumourInterest or an enquiry reported
- In talksClubs or agents talking, or a bid made
- AgreedA fee or terms agreed
- MedicalThe player is having his medical
- Done dealAnnounced
A player signing a new contract at his own club shows New deal and “Stays at” the club. When no report names the club a player is leaving, the row says Unknown.
Fee: the figure in the latest report, shown only for a permanent move. Before a deal is agreed it reads Reported: it can be a bid, a valuation or an option rather than the agreed price, and the summary under the row says which.
- Confirmed
- A done deal, reported by at least one leading outlet.
- Strong
- Two or more leading outlets, or one leading outlet and two or more others.
- Reported
- One leading outlet, or two or more others. A done deal from one smaller outlet also shows here.
- Single source
- One smaller outlet so far.
Leading outlets are the most reliable sources we track, such as BBC Sport, Sky Sports, ESPN, Kicker and Fabrizio Romano. Each outlet counts once, however many of its feeds carry the story.
