The summer transfer window of 2018 was anything but predictable as we saw more than a few moves which raised a lot of eyebrows. Here are all the major signings of the recently concluded transfer window. 1. Nainggolan – Roma to Inter The experienced midfielder switched to Inter after making over 200 appearances for Roma for a reported €38 million. 2. Cazorla – Arsenal to Villarreal Santi Cazorla returned to Villarreal and will make his first competitive appearance in almost 2 years after a ligament injury. He was released by Arsenal at the end of his contract. 3. Jorginho – Napoli to Chelsea Chelsea's hijacked Manchester City's deal to sign Jorginho after Bakayoko's dismal first season at Stamford Bridge made it crucial for the Blues to sign a quality central midfielder. He has arrived from Napoli and reunites with Sarri as Chelsea paid a fee in the region of £55 million. 4. Dalot – Porto to Manchester United Manchester Unite...

This season's Premier League has been quite a one horse race. None of the "Top 6" have been able to match Manchester City's quality on the field. Individually, we have seen the rise of a number of players. Among them are Romelu Lukaku, Kevin de Bruyne and the "Egyptian Messi" , Mohamed Salah, all of whom have been a part of Chelsea at some point in their careers as young prospects. 1.

Lukaku was then loaned to West Brom the following season, producing 17 goals in the league. The signings of Eto'o and Ba in the summer of 2013 meant first team action was a far fetched id...

In 2005 the Willemsem family went to a park in Mallorca and saw Florentino Perez's boat. Maria Willemsem personally went to greet the Real Madrid president and told him that her son would play for Real Madrid. Young Marco Asensio was only 8 back then but his mother saw in him the talent that is leaving us speechless everytime he walks out on the field. Unfortunately, Maria passed away when Marco was only 15 and left behind her two sons and their father. In 2016, Marco completed his mother's promise to Florentino and became a Real Madrid player. He broke down to tears during his presentation remembering his mother who he said was "always watching over him from above". And then followed a series of excellent performances over the next season, probably Real Madrid's best in history. He scored a screamer on his debut in the UEFA Super Cup against Sevilla as the whites claimed glory. He also went on to score in all his debut matches for Real Madrid i...
