The transfer window is up and running and there will be a raft of big-money moves before the Premier League season kicks off on August 5. <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/tags/manchester-city/" target="_blank">Manchester City</a> will be looking to make it a hat-trick of titles in 2022/23 – and their fifth in six seasons – when they open their campaign with a tricky fixture at <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/tags/west-ham-united/" target="_blank">West Ham United</a> on the first weekend. <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/tags/liverpool/" target="_blank">Liverpool</a>, who pushed City all the way last season only to be edged out by a single point, start their season at Fulham, while Chelsea go to Everton, and <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/tags/manchester-united/" target="_blank">Manchester United</a> host Brighton. In the early transfer moves, <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/sport/football/2022/06/13/erling-haaland-is-in-the-right-place-after-completing-manchester-city-move/">Erling Haaland </a>has joined City for a fee of around £51.5m ($63.4m), while Liverpool have recruited Darwin Nunez from Benfica for an initial £64.3m outlay.
