The 2026 FIFA World Cup is over, but there are still plenty of top players set to use the spotlight to change shirts!

So, ge put together a list of the main players who shone at the World Cup and could still change clubs in this window!

Check it out below!

Folarin Balogun (Forward, 25 years old — USA / Monaco)

With three goals in four matches, he was the standout player for the U.S. national team (and the center of controversy after President Donald Trump intervened against his suspension for a red card).

He could be coached by Filipe Luís at Monaco, but he is a target for PSG and Premier League clubs.

Ayyoub Bouaddi (Defensive midfielder, 18 years old — Morocco / Lille)

He dominated Morocco’s midfield and drew attention for his precocious maturity (he made his Lille debut at 16).

PSG have long been interested, but the strongest speculation links him to Manchester City.

Bruno Guimarães (Defensive midfielder, Brazil / Newcastle)

Even with Brazil’s disappointing campaign (under Carlo Ancelotti), the player stood out with four assists and excellent performances.

Arsenal, the current Premier League champions, have already had bids of €65 million and €75 million rejected, but are expected to keep pushing to sign him.

Yan Diomandé (Forward, 19 years old — Ivory Coast / RB Leipzig)

He is coming off a great season in Germany (13 goals and 9 assists) and repeated that strong form at the World Cup.

He turned down Liverpool and is close to an agreement with PSG, but Arsenal are still in the race.

Gilberto Mora (17 years old — Mexico / Tijuana)

The youngest player to appear at the 2026 World Cup. He took the field four times for Mexico and is already attracting interest from English giants such as Liverpool, Manchester City, and Arsenal.

Manu Koné (Defensive midfielder, 25 years old — France / Roma)

He had a great World Cup with France’s star-studded squad, playing in five matches (four as a starter).

His midfield performances sparked interest from Manchester United and Arsenal.
