It was a hot transfer market on the last day. Alexander Isaac, who stepped up demanding a transfer from Newcastle United to Liverpool, changed his uniform for a transfer fee of 125 million pounds (about 235.9 billion won).
It's not just Isaac. Newcastle announced that they sent Isaac to Liverpool and paid a transfer fee of 55 million pounds (about 103.8 billion won) to Brentford to sign Yoan Weissar. Fulham also spent 34.6 million pounds (about 65.3 billion won), a club record, to recruit Kevin, a Brazilian winger who played for Shaktar Donetsk (Ukraine). Manchester United spent 18.1 million pounds (about 34.1 billion won) to recruit goalkeeper Senne Ramens from Royal Antwerp (Belgium) and decided to send Jadon Sancho on loan to Aston Villa this season instead. Aston Villa also hired Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott on loan, including a full transfer option. Tottenham loaned Colomuani, who played for Paris Saint-Germain (France), and Arsenal loaned Bayer Leverkusen (Germany) defender Piero Incapier. Sunderland have signed Ajax (Dutch) striker Brian Broby and Bertrand Traore, and have signed Leipzig (Germany) defender Rutsharel Kertrouida on loan.
The BBC reported that Isaac's transfer to Liverpool increased the total amount of transfer fees spent by 20 EPL teams this summer to 3.087 billion pounds (about 5.82 trillion won). This is a significant increase from 1.96 billion pounds (about 3.6997 trillion won) last summer. He added that the total transfer market this summer is more than the total transfer fee spent by German Bundesliga, Spanish Primera Liga, and Italian Serie A clubs combined.
Meanwhile, Korean players' transfers have not been made. PSG's Lee Kang-in is known to have attracted the attention of Nottingham Forest ahead of the closing of the transfer market, but no official announcement has been made. Lee Kang-in is said to be attracting attention from various clubs such as Napoli (Italy) and Arsenal after the end of last season, but eventually he will play in the winter transfer market at PSG.
