Every incoming and outgoing at Charlton Athletic in the summer transfer window.
Charlton Athletic are trying to expand their team for next season, and several new players have already arrived.
Charlton Athletic are preparing to add to their ranks as they prepare for life in the Championship after an electrifying 2024/25 League One season under Nathan Jones. The Addicks have already signed Nathan Jones to a new contract, beating off interest from clubs like as Cardiff City.
Jones’ strong ties to the club indicate that he will receive major investment in players this summer.
With players already on board and some due to depart, here’s a list of all the confirmed Charlton Athletic deals thus far.
Confirmed Charlton Athletic transfers in
Charlton Athletic announced the signing of Thomas Kaminski in late June. The Belgian international custodian signed from Luton Town for an undisclosed amount. Standing 6ft 3in, he won the 2023/24 Premier League Save of the Season award and appeared in every game of the Hatters’ top-flight season, making the second-most saves in the league.
Tanto Olaofe has also joined the Addicks from League One club Stockport County for an undisclosed amount. The 25-year-old was a crucial member of the Stockport team that finished third in Sky Bet League One last season, scoring 12 goals and assisting four times. Prior to it, he scored 21 goals in County’s promotion-winning 2023/24 season.
Charlton has also signed Jamaican international Amari’i Bell, whose contract with Luton Town expired. The left-sided defender has 28 caps for his country and 216 appearances in English football’s top two tiers. Sonny Carey is another guy who will play for the Valley next season. He jumped on board once his contract with Blackpool expired.
The 24-year-old, who scored 11 goals from midfield last season, has signed a three-year deal and is the Addicks’ first acquisition of the summer.

Every Charlton Athletic departure this summer
Goalkeeper Dean Bouzanis has returned to Australia, joining A-League club Brisbane Roar on a free transfer. He arrived in the Valley in March 2025 on a short-term contract that would expire at the end of the 2024-25 season.
Aaron Henry, a midfielder, joins Boreham Wood on a free transfer on July 2, 2025, after his contract expired. Throughout his stint at the Addicks, he has been loaned out on several occasions.
Thierry Small, a defender who played 62 games for Charlton and was part of their 2024/25 promotion-winning team, has joined Preston North End on a free transfer after his contract at the club expired.
Striker Chuks Aneke has also gone when his contract expired in June, becoming a free agent. As things are, he still lacks a new club.
Finally, Charlton striker Danny Hylton retired from football only a few weeks ago but was promptly hired for a coaching position at the Valley following their promotion.
The latest Charlton Athletic transfer rumours
There have been a few tales of alleged transfer activity in the Valley.
According to FLW, the Addicks are competing with Millwall and Preston North End for the free transfer of Danish defender Mathias Ross. According to journalist Richard Cawley, Charlton are also interested at a third Luton player, Reece Burke.
He made only 17 Championship games for Luton last season owing to an injury that kept him out for more than three months. Jones’ former club, Luton, may make the move more plausible, especially since Thomas Kaminski and Amari’i Bell have recently joined.
