It’s deadline day as the European transfer window comes to a close, expect to see a ton of movement across global soccer today, but we’ll be focused on the Cultureverse delegation for this post.
Sergiño Dest makes a move to AC Milan on Loan
Sergio Dest will join Italian champions AC Milan on loan with a 20 million option to buy. Dest will sign a four-year contract with a one-year loan till June 2027.
Milan is looking to continue to improve their squad after taking on a fresh round of capital from American investment firm Main Street Advisors.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang headed to Chelsea after half a season in Barcelona
Following a forced move to Barcelona during the January transfer window last season, Auba is on the move again, this time to Chelsea to rejoin with his former Dortmund boss Thomas Tuchel.
As part of the agreement, Barcelona would receive 14 million euros plus Marcos Alonso from Chelsea. This is a solid flip for them after acquiring Aubameyang on a free transfer last January.

Willian back in the Prem, signs with Fulham
Martin Braithwaite and Barca agree to contract termination
Barcelona had a busy transfer window, as the club with limited funds was signing players left and right and needed to register them before the window closed or risk losing them for free. That implies they’ll have to pay down their payroll bill first.
In addition to leaving Frankie De Jong hanging on his pay, Barca have been trying to unload the oft-injured Martin Braithwaite…looks like they finally pulled it off. Next stop, Espanyol.
