This season, the summer window is split in two, with a short window now until June 10 due to the Club World Cup, before it reopens on June 16 and then finally closes on September 1. Two Cherries players have already left the club this summer – Dean Huijsen and Jaidon Anthony. The former joins Real Madrid after the Spanish giants agreed to trigger his £50million release clause, while the latter moves to the Clarets on a permanent deal after their promotion triggered an obligation to buy clause.
