The Championship will return in little over a month's time and Leeds United are listed among the favourites to secure promotion. Former Norwich City boss Daniel Farke is widely considered to be the frontrunner for the vacant manager position at Elland Road as the Whites await approval of their takeover.
Recently relegated Leicester City look set to make the first major move in the Championship window, with an announcement on the £10 million capture of Harry Winks expected sooner rather than later. Southampton on the other hand are braced for a number of exits, with Tino Livramento the subject of interest from both Brighton and Newcastle United.
Like most of the division so far, Middlesbrough are yet to bring in the first recruit although their transfer priorities on the pitch are now known. Watford have already sanctioned the sale of Joao Pedro, while Norwich City unveiled Borja Sainz as their fourth signing of the window already.
