La Liga Transfer Round-Up: Girona near new striker, Carlos Soler returning

A round-up of the latest goings on in the transfer window, as La Liga sides wrap up their business before the transfer deadline.

Alaves

Alaves may be about to pip Celta Vigo to the signing of Denis Suarez. The Villarreal playmaker is on his way out, but with Celta unable to move on Joseph Aidoo and Franco Cervi, Alaves manager Chacho Coudet has persuaded the Galician midfielder to join the Basque side, as per Matteo Moretto.

Celta y jugador intentaron unir sus caminos por todos los medios, pero la negativa de Aidoo y Cervi a salir hacía la operación imposible.

Atletico Madrid

Former defender Cesar Azpilicueta, who has been linked with both Osasuna and Celta Vigo, remains a free agent. Footmercato say that Olympique Lyon have made a move for him.

Marca say that a late offer for Conor Gallagher is their last hope of securing a move for Nicolas Gonzalez, with Nahuel Molina set to remain at the club. Shortlisted forward Matias Fernandez-Pardo is also keen to leave Lille before the end of the transfer window, but it seems that Atletico have no plans for a move.

Espanyol

Espanyol have reached an agreement with Real Sociedad for Urko Gonzalez, bringing back the midfielder who spent last season on loan in Cornella. The 24-year-old will set Los Pericos back €4m. He is not the only arrival in midfield, with Charles Pickel coming in from Cremonese. He has arrived on a one-year deal.

A deal for Ladislav Krejci has been made official with Wolves. The positive news is that Nil Sola reports a deal is expected to completed for Dynamo Kyiv forward Vladyslav Vanat. The 23-year-old would sign a five-year deal for a fee of €15m, with Dynamo retaining a percentage of his sale.

Levante

Levante have brought in former Real Sociedad shotstopper Matthew Ryan on a free from RC Lens. The 33-year-old Australian has signed a one-year deal.

Osasuna

After another impressive start to his second season, Sport inform that defender Enzo Boyomo has no plans to move on currently. Any side that wants him must pay his €25m release clause.

Real Sociedad

Left-back Javi Lopez remains without a resolution to his future. RadioMarca say that he has a loan offer from Real Oviedo, but it is not the only one on the table. Moretto says that an enquiry from Besiktas has ended without further talks.

ℹ️ Javi López puede terminar cedido en Oviedo, pero como hemos contado hoy en @RadioMARCA tiene otra propuesta que está estudiando para dar el sí definitivo. Nos han contado que el tema no se va a dilatar mucho.

Another likely exit is Sheraldo Becker. Moretto explains that Rayo Vallecano, Osasuna and RCD Mallorca are all working on a deal for him. In place of the departed Urko Gonzalez, a loan move for Carlos Soler from PSG is on the verge of being done.

Amid their interest in Yangel Herrera, Nacho Sanchis says that they are keen to include Umar Sadiq in the talks, but the Nigerian forward is desperate to return to Valencia.

La Real Sociedad se mueve

🔛Ha sacado a Urko y va a sacar a Arrikaburu. Eso les liberaría 2 fichas y permitiría fichar a Carlos Soler, con quien están muy cerca

Además Yangel Herrera sigue queriendo ir a Anoeta y la RSO meter a Sadiq en la operación

Sevilla

Sevilla defender Marcao has extended his contract by a year in order to help the club. He has taken a wage cut to aid Sevilla in their registration issues, and his new deal will now run until 2027. This has allowed their first two signings of the summer, Alfon Gonzalez and Gabriel Suazo, to be registered.

The registration worries are taking their toll on the club though. Matteo Moretto reports that an agreement has been reached with AS Monaco for €10m for their talented young winger. Villarreal are also in talks for winger Ruben Vargas.
