The last day of the transfer market is an event often very eventful for its actors but that of the 2025 edition, Monday, September 1, promised to be shorter than usual. Unlike previous years, where it ended at midnight, the summer transfer window ended at 8 p.m., which did not prevent certain operations from being formalized the next day. This is particularly the case with the departure of Gianluigi Donnarumma in Manchester City from Paris Saint-Germain. The capital’s club was not unemployed by validating several other departures – including Carlos Soler at Real Sociedad, Marco Asensio in Fenerbahçe. His rival, Olympique de Marseille (OM), obtained the loan for a season of Benjamin Pavard.

Since the arrival of Lucas Chevalier at PSG, Saturday August 9, the departure of the Italian goalkeeper was expected. The transfer of Gianluigi Donnarumma to Manchester City was finally formalized until the day after the fence of the transfer window, because the English club had to sell its porter Ederson first. After having farewell to the public of the Parc des Princes after the victory of Paris against Angers (1-0), Friday August 22, Gianluigi Donnarumma leaves Ligue 1 and will discover the Premier League, where the hesitations in the air field-one of its lines of progression-do not forgive.
The 26 -year -old Italian goalkeeper, a great craftsman of PSG victory in the Champions League last season, will also have to meet the expectations of Pep Guardiola in the foot game. The Catalan coach is waiting for his goalkeeper to participate in the game. If he has progressed in this sector, Gianluigi Donnarumma has already cost PSG goals due to recovery errors. In Manchester City, the Italian should be goalkeeper number 1, a status occupied since the start of the season by James Trafford, a young 22 -year -old bought this summer more than 30 million euros by the Citizens.
• Randal Kolo Muani rebounds in Tottenham
At the start of the season, Randal Kolo Muani did not appear once in the colors of PSG and for good reason: the attacker was part of the “loft” of the capital’s club, this group of unwanted players led to leave the team. He was finally loaned to Tottenham for a season, without an option to buy. Juventus Turin, where he had spent the second part of last season, has long planned to recruit him this summer before opting on Monday for the former Lensois Openda.
After Ligue 1, the Bundesliga and Serie A, Randal Kolo Muani will discover a new championship with the Spurs, where he will compete with the Brazilian Richarlison and his young compatriot Mathys Tel. Much appreciated by Didier Deschamps, the 26 -year -old French international was not retained by the coach for the first two games of the Blues season. His performances with Tottenham, 4ᵉ of Premier League after three days, may again open the doors of the Blues again in this World Cup season.
• Benjamin Pavard, the big blow of OM
Unlike Adrien Rabiot, who should only join Clairefontaine (Yvelines) and the other players of the French team until Monday evening, after having signed with AC Milan, Italy, Benjamin Pavard was present for the start of the Blues Rally in the afternoon. At the start of the day, the 29 -year -old defender was closer to stay at Inter Milan than a departure. He finally set out with OM for a season, loaned by Italian training.
The Marseille club offers itself a weight recruit with the arrival of the 2018 world champion, unhappy finalist of the last Champions League against PSG. In Marseille, Benjamin Pavard will face the strong competition within the Marseille defense, also reinforced by the arrival of Nayef Aguerd. During this last day of the transfer market, OM validated the arrival of four new players. With 13 recruits, Marseille was one of the major players in the French market from one end of the summer.
• The attacker market ignites
This last day of the transfer window was notably marked by the biggest transfer in the history of the Premier League. Alexander Isak, 25 -year -old Swedish striker, joined Liverpool for a check for 150 million euros. The Reds had already broken this record earlier in the summer by buying Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen for 130 million euros. In order to replace Alexander Isak, Newcastle attached the services of Yoane Wissa (Brentford).
Other attackers found a new club during the final hours of the transfer market. This is the case of the Senegalese Nicolas Jackson, transferred from Chelsea to Bayern Munich, of the French Odsonne Edouard (Crystal Palace), who joins RC Lens, or the Swiss Breel Embolo, past from AS Monaco to Stade Rennais. The LOSC, for its part, sold the Kosovar Edon Zhegrova to Juventus Turin.
