Barcelona reportedly turned down the chance to sign Newcastle striker Nick Woltemade during the final days of the summer transfer window. The Catalan giants opted against rescuing the struggling German international, opting instead to finalise a cut-price move for Arsenal's Gabriel Jesus. Woltemade subsequently secured a season-long loan switch to Juventus.
Manchester City legend Sergio Aguero has backed former team-mate Gabriel Jesus to flourish at Barcelona following his €15 million switch from Arsenal. The Argentine believes the Brazilian forward will adapt seamlessly to Hansi Flick's system in Catalonia and easily hit double figures after calling time on his four-year stay in north London.
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 once again proved to be exceptionally busy, with some huge names making big-money moves all the way up to Deadline Day on September 1.
Gabriel Jesus has completed a stunning move to Barcelona, admitting that he accepted a major financial sacrifice to ensure the deal went through. The Brazilian forward leaves the Premier League behind to become the latest high-profile addition to Hansi Flick’s squad at the Camp Nou.
