Serie A officially closed its summer transfer window on September 1, and there were significant confirmations on the final day. Juventus announced Pape Matar Sarr and Nick Woltemade, Como signed Moise Kean, Lazio completed a deal for Albert Gudmundsson, and Fiorentina added Beto. After reviewing those late moves, these are five of the standout signings of the window based on quality, investment and potential impact.
Top 5 Serie A signings
Italy’s top flight closed a highly active transfer window, with Milan, Juventus and Napoli adding major names. Gonçalo Ramos led the spending, while Deadline Day also produced several important moves.
Gonçalo Ramos – AC Milan
AC Milan made one of the biggest investments of the summer by signing Gonçalo Ramos from Paris Saint-Germain for approximately $85.7 million. The 25-year-old Portuguese striker signed through June 2031. He arrives after scoring 45 goals in 131 appearances for PSG and with a trophy collection that includes two Champions League titles. In Rúben Amorim’s project, Ramos provides a focal point capable of offering penalty-area presence, pressing and goals.
Diego Moreira – AC Milan
Milan also invested heavily in Diego Moreira, the Belgian winger signed from Strasbourg for around $57.9 million. He agreed a contract through 2031 after establishing himself in France and representing Belgium at the 2026 World Cup. His pace, one-on-one ability and versatility across the front line give Amorim a different attacking profile to complement Ramos and Rafael Leão.
Rasmus Højlund – Napoli
Napoli made Rasmus Højlund’s move from Manchester United permanent for approximately $51 million. The Denmark international had already spent the 2025/26 season on loan in Naples, finishing the campaign with 16 goals in 44 appearances across all competitions. Keeping him provides continuity to an attack that already knows his qualities, while Højlund was also an important part of Napoli’s Italian Super Cup triumph.
Randal Kolo Muani – Juventus
Juventus brought Randal Kolo Muani back to Turin, this time on a permanent transfer from Paris Saint-Germain for around $47.7 million. The France forward had already impressed during his 2025 loan spell, scoring ten goals in 22 appearances for the Bianconeri. After spending last season at Tottenham, he returned to strengthen Luciano Spalletti’s attacking options with a player who already knows both the club and Serie A.
Pape Matar Sarr – Juventus
Deadline Day also changed the Juventus midfield. Pape Matar Sarr arrived from Tottenham on a loan worth approximately $2.9 million, with an option that can become an obligation to buy for a further $31.9 million. The 23-year-old Senegal international made more than 100 Premier League appearances and was part of Tottenham’s 2024/25 Europa League-winning squad. His energy, mobility and ability to contribute in both phases give Spalletti another high-level midfield option.
