Whoever watches football these days won’t argue that the prices of transfers are way too big (not to mention the players’ wages), but the end is not in sight. Every year, the June transfer window surpasses the last one in terms of money spend and this was the case in 2026 too. But there is one team which is in such a financial mess, that managed to end the transfer window without a single incoming! And we are not talking about some low-league club from some small European country, we are talking about a French giant – Olympique Marseille.“I didn’t imagine that we would sign nobody”The famous club has been left in financial ruins since the departure of president Pablo Longoria and sporting director Medhi Benatia and new president Stephane Richard had to face criticism from the fans, even though he took the position just a few months ago. When the financial books were open, it was clear that the club has way overpaid their footballers and gave them unreasonable salaries. So, DNCG (French..

That’s how it is in sport and in life: you may get your five minutes of fame only once. So, either you make the most of it, or you don’t. The Osnabruck players certainly did, even though they were comfortably beaten by Bayern in the first round of the German Cup – 1:4 (1:2). And it really was five minutes of fame, because just as the fifth minute was approaching, they scored a goal that will be remembered and talked about for a long time. Robin Meissner unleashed a shot from around 25 metres, and goalkeeper Jonas Urbig could only watch as the ball took a very strange trajectory before ending up in the net.Still, that change in goal was one of the few alterations Vincent Kompany made to his strongest starting XI.

It was something of a rarity, too, because it doesn’t happen often: not a sing..
