The summer transfer window has shut, and it could be time for new signings to take to the stage in week three of the Premier League – and you can keep across all the action on the BBC.

It was a record-breaking year for spending – so how will high-profile transfers like Manchester City‘s Enzo Fernandez and Liverpool‘s Bradley Barcola fare if they make their first outings for their new club?

Throughout the 2026-27 season, you can watch highlights from every game on Match of the Day, get live updates in our text commentaries on the BBC Sport website and app and keep across all the goals as they go in on Final Score.

You can get live score updates on your phone lock screen simply by following your favourite teams.

And you can listen to match coverage wherever you are in the UK via BBC Radio 5 Live and the BBC Sounds app.

Digital highlights will be available post-match on the BBC Sport website and app.
