When it comes to the world of football transfers, July is often proclaimed as the busiest month. The pre-season is just around the corner and most clubs are looking to bring in new players. The earlier they draft these new players in the side, the better it is since players might need some time to gel together with a new bunch of people around.

There are many transfer rumours that are going viral on the Internet.

Here are the top three transfers that can happen this month-

3. Antoine Griezmann from Atletico Madrid to Barcelona

Antoine Griezmann is all set to leave his current club Atletico Madrid this summer. The player had announced his decision through a video he posted on his social media account.

He was ready to leave last year too but decided not to leave his club.

However, now he is firm on his decision and Blaugrana will strive hard to draft him into their side.

The estimated transfer fee for this transfer is €120 million- which does justice to Antoine’s excellence on the football ground.

2. Paul Pogba from Manchester United to Real Madrid

It was in 2016 that Manchester United invested £89 million to bring Paul Pogba to Old Trafford. With this deal, Pogba had become the most expensive player of 2016.

However, critics and fans alike believe that Pogba has failed to do justice to his price tag and the reputation of Manchester United.

Reports are that he might go on to play for Real Madrid with an estimated transfer amount of £89 million.

1. Neymar from Paris Saint-Germain to Barcelona

Neymar’s transfer to Paris Saint-Germain shook the sporting arena as it broke all transfer records at that time. His present club had drafted him to the side for a whopping €222 million in 2017.

However, his career has failed to take off since then owing to injuries and many controversies outside the football ground.

Reports claim that Neymar could play for Barcelona this season with an estimated transfer fee of €200 million.
