<p>This week, while the headlines were filled with high-profile transactions and wild speculation, a number of clever and intriguing moves quietly unfolded. Beyond the buzz surrounding superstar signings, many clubs across Europe have efficiently reinforced their squads, seeking value in lesser-known markets and tapping into hidden potential. These transfers may not generate the same media frenzy, but they hold the promise of making a significant impact when the new season begins. <em>Transfermarkt</em> highlights eight noteworthy signings from the past week that you may have overlooked but should definitely pay attention to.</p>
<br>
<h2><strong>Eight Transfers You May Have Missed This Week</strong></h2>
<br>
<h2>Noah Okafor – AC Milan ➝ Leeds United (€19m)</h2>
<br>
<p>Swiss international <a href="#">Noah Okafor</a> made the switch from AC Milan to Leeds United, potentially giving the newly promoted team a substantial boost in attack. Despite struggling to secure a regular starting position at San Siro after joining Milan from RB Salzburg in 2023, the 25-year-old forward showcased glimpses of his speed, versatility, and dynamic runs in both Serie A and the Champions League. For Leeds, Okafor is not just a statement signing; he offers the ability to stretch defenses, either as a winger or as a central forward who can score goals.</p>
<br>
<h2>Amine Adli – Bayer Leverkusen ➝ Bournemouth (€21m)</h2>
<br>
<p>Bournemouth executed a savvy deal by acquiring <a href="#">Amine Adli</a> from Bayer Leverkusen. At Leverkusen, Adli often battled for playing time in a competitive attacking lineup, yet still displayed his characteristic speed, impressive pressing, and ability to advance the ball effectively. His versatility could prove crucial for Bournemouth, providing manager Andoni Iraola a dynamic option that fits well within his high-energy system. This move might not have made headlines, but Adli's profile suggests he could quickly win over fans on the South Coast.</p>
<br>
<h2>James McAtee – Manchester City ➝ Nottingham Forest (€25m)</h2>
<br>
<p>Nottingham Forest enhanced their creative options by securing <a href="#">James McAtee</a> from Manchester City. The 22-year-old midfielder, once nicknamed the “Salford Silva” in his youth, impressed while on loan at Sheffield United with his technical skills, control, and ability to find himself in dangerous positions. With limited opportunities at City, moving to Forest presents a logical next step, where he can provide creativity and vision in the midfield and help unlock tight defenses.</p>
<br>
<h2>Dorgeles Nene – RB Salzburg ➝ Fenerbahçe (€18m)</h2>
<br>
<p>Fenerbahçe's ambitious summer continues with the addition of <a href="#">Dorgeles Nene</a> from RB Salzburg. This move may not have garnered significant attention, but it has the potential to be a smart addition. The Malian forward was one of the most electrifying young attackers in the Austrian Bundesliga, known for his skill, close control, and ability to create chances from the wing. At Fenerbahçe, Nene’s pursuit of more consistent playing time in a title-contending team could enhance his development while adding youthful unpredictability to the squad.</p>
<br>
<h2>Sverre Nypan – Manchester City ➝ Middlesbrough (loan)</h2>
<br>
<p>Norwegian prospect <a href="#">Sverre Nypan</a> will spend the 2025/26 season loaned out to Middlesbrough after joining Manchester City earlier this summer. The young midfielder is already earning acclaim for his vision and passing ability, having made a name for himself during his time at Rosenborg. This loan will afford him valuable playing time in a competitive league, while Middlesbrough gains a creative player who can influence games in the Championship—a quietly clever deal that could benefit everyone involved.</p>
<br>
<h2>Ben Doak – Liverpool ➝ Bournemouth (€23.2m)</h2>
<br>
<p>Bournemouth has announced the signing of Scottish winger <a href="#">Ben Doak</a> from Liverpool, providing one of Britain's most promising young talents a chance for regular first-team football. Since arriving from Celtic in 2022, the 19-year-old has impressed with his explosive speed and direct style. While he found limited opportunities under Jürgen Klopp, Doak's performances in cup matches hinted at his potential. If he adjusts quickly, this under-the-radar signing could become one of Bournemouth's standout attacking threats.</p>
<br>
<h2>Arnaud Kalimuendo – Stade Rennes ➝ Nottingham Forest (€30m)</h2>
<br>
<p>Nottingham Forest have further bolstered their attack with the addition of <a href="#">Arnaud Kalimuendo</a> from Stade Rennes, adding a player with a solid background in Ligue 1. The 23-year-old, a product of PSG’s academy, is known for his intelligent movement and finishing ability, capable of playing both central and wide roles. Though not always prolific in France, his overall game and ability to link play will be invaluable for Forest as they seek more consistency in their scoring. This low-profile move could see Kalimuendo emerge as a vital player at the City Ground this season.</p>
<br>
<h2>Miguel Gutiérrez – Girona ➝ Napoli (€18m)</h2>
<br>
<p>Napoli made a shrewd move by acquiring <a href="#">Miguel Gutiérrez</a> from Girona, securing one of La Liga’s standout young left-backs for their title-winning team. The 23-year-old, a product of Real Madrid's academy, played a crucial role in Girona’s historic Champions League qualification, impressing with his forward runs and composure on the ball. For Napoli, Gutiérrez not only fills a positional need but may also become a core part of their defense moving forward. While this deal may not be headline-grabbing, it could very well prove to be one of the most impactful of the Serie A season.</p>
