Transfer News
Bruno will sign for three seasons
The right back will have his medical on Wednesday and will sign on Thursday. He played at Almeria last season, but we've had to negotiate with Real Betis. After they got relegated, their deal with Bruno fell through, but we have to negotiate some things with them since Bruno had given them their word. Last week, we agreed a fee of €1.5 million with Real Betis and this week we negotiated the details with the player.

Miguel Ángel Moyà
We're very close to signing Mallorca's goalkeeper Moyà. The fee has been agreed at €5 million. Apparently we've set a plan with them where we'd pay them the €5 million over the course of 3 years. Things are still at the negotiation state with the club so the details have not been discussed with the player. However, the deal is close to being finalized.
