The most complicated transfer window has ended
The transfer window period ended on Monday, October 5th. It was the most complicated in history. This is because of the economic crisis that resulted from the halt in the global economic flow due to the pandemic. So there has been no signings to look forward to.
Real Madrid
Madrid was the surprise among all the big clubs. When the market opened, the white team announced that there would be no signings for this season. Partly because of the crisis. But it is also possible that the stadium’s remodeling expenses took a toll on them. And the only new signing has been the return of young Odegaard.
They also got rid of players with expensive contracts. And who no longer play regularly in the team. Among them Gareth Bale and Reguilón. Who are now new Tottenham players.
Barcelona
The Catalan team had a season in which they hit rock bottom. So they renewed the entire line-up. Suarez left for Atlético, Rakitic for Sevilla, and Vidal for Inter. Meanwhile, young players like Trincao, Pedri and Dest joined the team.
On the other hand, Coutinho returned after winning the Champions League and an exchange with Juventus between Pjanic and Arthur.
Manchester United
“The Red Devils” aimed for Jadon Sancho, a player from Dortmund. But the transaction was never close. However, within the hour they brought in Cavani and Telles. Besides that, they enlisted Dutchman, Van de Beek from Ajax.
Chelsea
“The Blues” also went through a renewal. But it ended up being the team with the greatest additions. All of which help Lampard develop his idea of a game for the team.
Pedro, William, Bathsuayi, Zappacosta and Bakayoko are the players who left Chelsea. While the new signings were all young promises or players who were already rebounding in different teams. Among them are Timo Werner, Hakim Ziyech, Kai Havertz, Ben Chillwell and Malang Sarr.
They also brought in veteran Thiago Silva, who was given the captain’s arm band.
Bayern Munich
The European champion dropped several players with whom they became famous. Some were on loan, such as Coutinho from Barcelona and Perisic from Inter. A key player like Thiago Alcantara went to Liverpool.
As for reinforcements, from the beginning, they assured Sane, who was in Manchester City, and at the last minute they brought in Eric Choupo-Moting from PSG and Douglas Costa from Juventus.

Zelenski urges global action after russian ballistic missile strike
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenski called on the international community Thursday to “respond” to Russia’s ballistic missile strike on Ukraine, which he said has heightened the “escalation and brutality” of the conflict.
“The world must react. So far, there has been no strong response,” Zelenski lamented in a social media statement.
“We must act. We must pressure. We must push Russia towards real peace, which is only achievable through strength,” he added.
Russian President Vladimir Putin confirmed Thursday that Russia had launched a new type of hypersonic ballistic missile against Ukraine in its “non-nuclear configuration.”

Elon Musk plans sweeping cuts to U.S. bureaucracy and spending
Elon Musk has pledged massive cuts to government programs, subsidies, and bureaucracy in his anticipated role as a “State Efficiency” leader, according to an article published Wednesday in The Wall Street Journal.
The billionaire entrepreneur plans to target hundreds of billions of dollars in federal spending, including funds for public broadcasting and Planned Parenthood. Musk called government bureaucracy an “existential threat” to American democracy.
Teaming up with fellow businessman and Trump ally Vivek Ramaswamy, Musk aims to streamline federal regulations and implement significant administrative and cost reductions.
“We are entrepreneurs, not politicians. We will serve as external volunteers, not federal officials or employees,” Musk and Ramaswamy stated in the article.

Putin warns of escalation, suggests strikes on western weapon suppliers
Russian President Vladimir Putin declared that the conflict in Ukraine is taking on the characteristics of a “global war,” warning that Russia might target Western nations supplying Ukraine with weapons used in attacks on Russian territory.
These remarks come after a day of heightened tensions, during which Russia launched a state-of-the-art medium-range missile designed to carry a nuclear warhead. However, this particular missile was loaded with conventional explosives.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned the missile strike, calling it the action of a “deranged neighbor” using Ukraine as a “military testing ground.”
Earlier, Ukraine accused Russia of attacking the central-eastern city of Dnipro with a missile exhibiting “all the characteristics” of an intercontinental missile, an unprecedented development in the ongoing conflict.
