There were really a lot of official announcements yesterday evening and early this morning, and I didn't say much to look at the content directly:
Newcastle announced that the team had signed New Zealand striker Chris Wood from Burnley for a transfer fee of €28 million, the second signing in the Newcastle winter window. After Wood joins, Newcastle will continue to sign other players, and Carlos (Sevilla defender), Umtiti and others are close to joining Newcastle. I have to say that Newcastle is ready to play a big game in the winter window, and they will sign more players in the future, but I don't know if they can complete the relegation?
Recently, the Premier League's Villa also officially announced, Villa announced the signing of Everton's French full-back Digne, the transfer fee is 30 million euros, this deal is also villa's second pick in the winter window, and the team's first signing is Coutinho, it seems that Villa's ambitions are also very large. It should be said that It is really not easy for Villa to sign Digne, before Chelsea and Newcastle were pursuing Digne, Chelsea's results were better, Newcastle gave a higher salary, but in the end Digne was convinced by Gerrard.
Bakambu also transferred, recently Ligue 1 giants Marseille announced that the team signed the former Beijing Guoan foreign aid Bakambu, the team signed until the summer of 2024, and the player is a free transfer to Marseille, will wear the No. 13 jersey. When the players are in Guoan, they are the absolute main players of the team, but in Marseille there are Mikoli, Enrique and many other forwards, I don't know if Bakambu can have a place in Marseille? Let's wait and see! However, he has done well in Sochaux and Villarreal before!
Other official announcements include Uruguayan star Godin joining Atlético Mineiro in Brazil, and former Chelsea star Zhirkov joining Khimki in the Russian Premier League, where the player is 38 years old. Vienna fast striker Demir left Barca to return to his home team. At the same time, there are some reliable transfer rumors: a number of Italian media reported that Aubameyang and Artur were close to swapping owners; Barca were close to signing Benfica defender Gelmarido, and the player was trained in La Masia's academy. Manchester United veteran Nani is close to joining Venice on a free transfer. Of course, these are still rumors, those that can become official announcements, let's wait and see!
