Official: Atlético Madrid announce another transfer agreement
The busy summer window being enjoyed by La Liga giants Atlético Madrid has this week continued. This comes amid confirmation of a deal being put in place for a fresh addition to the defensive ranks in Diego Simeone's squad. The player on his way in at the Metropolitano? Marc Pubill. The name of right-back Pubill had emerged as an altogether prominent one in the media headlines across Europe over the last 48 hours. This came after word was forthcoming that Premier League outfit Wolverhampton Wanderers had sent an offer the way of Almería for his signature. Just when it appeared as though the 22-year-old was Molineux-bound, however, Atlético Madrid entered the fray in decisive fashion. After hijacking Wolves' deal for Pubill, the Rojiblancos quickly reached an agreement of their own with Almería. As per a statement across the website and social media platforms of the capital club: 'Atlético de Madrid and UD Almería have reached an agreement for the transfer of Marc Pubill to our club, pending his passing the relevant medical examination and signing a new contract.'

Done Deal: Fabrizio Romano confirms another big Chelsea transfer deal this week
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has confirmed another big done Chelsea transfer deal for this summer over night. Chelsea are in an incredible spot right now after winning The Club World Cup on Sunday night, and you'd suspect we will see an aftermath of this in many situations. EXCLUSIVE! Chelsea still planning to buy in end of window surge! Former player turned pundit Alan Shearer is already tipping Chelsea to be Premier League challengers next season after the Club World Cup triumph. And Blues co-owner Todd Boehly has been speaking to the media this week and has thanked Chelsea fans for sticking with him along the way (although not sure they have all entirely done that). The reactions have been huge, and Chelsea will now get busy in the transfer market. Penders deal done Mike Penders with a Chelsea news logo. (Photo by) Goalkeeper Mike Penders is joining Strasbourg on loan from Chelsea this season as expected, with Romano putting the latest out on that on his X account late last night. He says: 'Mike Penders deal, done and set to be sealed as Chelsea goalkeeper will join Strasbourg on loan. 'Agreement in place for next season while Chelsea see Penders as top talent for the future.' Big future ahead It's very clear that Penders has a big future ahead of him and is highly rated not just by Chelsea, but by everyone in the footballing world. I think this move to play in Ligue 1 as Strasbourg number one next season is going to be a very smart move for him. He needs to gain solid experience and develop as a regular number one in a big league and he will get to do that here. Penders has been compared to Thibaut Courtois and you can certainly see why.

The London club would have preferred the player to join Tottenham or Newcastle because they would get a bigger feel Spurs were in a strong bargaining position because their new manager, ex-Bees boss Thomas Frank, knew exactly what fee they wanted, which was substantially more than United were offering - initially about £ one point, with United refusing to meet Brentford's demand for an initial £70m, plus £7m in additional payments - they had seen United spend £62.5m on Matheus Cunha and felt they were in a strong position - they cheekily mentioned to Mbeumo he might wish to lower his personal demands to get to the correct was not needed in the end and an agreement was reached that allowed all parties to move United in particular, this is hugely this instance, they felt not only were Tottenham and Newcastle keen but believed Arsenal were interested too, and Chelsea were also flexing their muscle by the the rights and wrongs of how they went about it, United got their man they finished 15th last season and all the other clubs they felt they were battling with can offer Champions League football in the coming months, that does indeed represent something of a coup for technical director Jason Wilcox and his negotiating team.
