After a solid season, but one that didn't quite bring home the silverware we needed. This year we looked to just strengthen the squad in a few key positions but more importantly maintain our stars.

EPL Results:

08/17/20 : 2 - 0 win vs. West Brom
08/22/20 : 0 - 1 loss @ Fulham
08/29/20 : 4 - 1 win vs. Sunderland

Players Sold:

CB - Christofer Haas (81) - Germany, 26 - $8,500,000 to Shalke
CB - Hordur Magnusson (81) - Iceland, 27 - $7,500,000 to Fiorentina
RB - Nicolas Soumah (78) - France, 22 - $10,000,000 to Bayern Leverkusen

Sold the two veteran CB's to bring in some younger talent and Soumah since he was 3rd in line for the RB's. Pretty simple, no stars lost.

Players given Loans:

LW - Stephan Vieira da Costa (80) - Germany, 20 - Loaned to Borussia Dortmund
CM - Christian Heimeroth (80) - Germany, 22 - Loaned to Sunderland
CAM - Jonathan Hopper (81) - England, 20 - Loaned to Sevilla
CM - Paolo Maietta (83) - Italy, 22 - Loaned to Fiorentina
CAM - Randy Ricketts (75) - Canada, 18 - Loaned to Sunderland

Some short and season loans to non-essential prospects. Can't wait for Heimeroth and Vieira da Costa to develop and become apart of the team, the young German's have been impressive when they have played.

Players Bought:

LW - Daniel Fernandez D. (87) - Spain, 21 - Free Agent
CDM - Etienne Vinetot (81) - France, 22 - $26,000,000 - Stade Rennais
CB - Elisu Nunes Ferreira (80) - Portugal, 22 - $15,500,000 - Zenit St. Petersberg

Daniel Fernandez D. is possibly the steal of the year. He is extremely fast with good finishing and passing attributes. He is an instant star and compliments my current midfield greatly.
