SeaSters Odesa Overview

An anticipated battle

Newcastle United are on the verge of officially confirming their fifth major signing of the summer transfer window after highly-rated goalkeeper Lukas Hornicek completed his medical in Spain. The Czech Republic international travelled to La Manga to finalise a £25.7m move from Sporting Braga, adding significant depth to the squad during a period of major structural transitions at the club.

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.
