Deportivo Merlo Visão geral

For some football fans, the summer is the part of the calendar that they look forward to the most - and that's not just because it's filled by a World Cup every four years! Rather, it's because the end of the season means only one thing: It's time for transfers! The 2026 window is once again proving to be busy, with some huge names making big-money moves before deadline day on September 1.

Barcelona have formalised their interest in Borussia Dortmund winger Karim Adeyemi by submitting an official bid for the Germany international. The 24-year-old has reportedly informed the Bundesliga side of his desire to leave after failing to reach an agreement on a contract extension at Signal Iduna Park.

Barcelona star Lamine Yamal has once again expressed his desire to see Julian Alvarez at the Camp Nou, insisting the Atletico Madrid forward is the perfect fit for the club. The teenage sensation believes the Argentine international possesses all the qualities required to thrive under the tactical demands of the Catalan giants.

Wojciech Szczesny has sensationally revealed the physical agony that has plagued his career since an injury suffered at Arsenal over a decade ago. The Barcelona goalkeeper admits that every save he makes is accompanied by pain, a reality that nearly saw him hang up his gloves for good before the call from Catalonia came.
