Transfers abroad: “Eriksen signs with Manchester United”, 2 transfers for Barça, Tudor coaches Marseille | Foreign football

Luiz Felipe, transfer-free at Lazio, opts for a Spanish adventure. He signed with Betis Sevilla until 2027.

Brazilian-born Luiz Felipe (25) started his career at Ituano. He joined Lazio in 2016, who subsequently loaned him to Salernitana. In 2017, he returned to Lazio, where he became a fixture in the Roman defence.

After playing for Brazil in youth, the defender chose Italy. He made his debut for the European champions in the heavy 5-2 defeat in Germany in June in the Nations League.

Marseille has a successor to Argentinian Jorge Sampaoli, who left the club last week, a year before his contract expired. The 44-year-old Croat Igor Tudor will be in charge of the French team for 2 years.

Tudor has coached PAOK Saloniki, Karabükspor and Galatasaray, Udinese since 2013 and was T2 of Juventus. Last season he worked for Hellas Verona, finishing 9th.

One is none. FC Barcelona has, after Franck Kessié, also announced the arrival of Andreas Christensen. The 26-year-old Danish defender has been a free agent since his Chelsea contract expired. He has signed a contract with the Catalan club until 2026.

Christensen joined Chelsea in 2012 at the age of 16. Two years later, he made his debut in the first team. Chelsea then loaned him to Borussia Mönchengladbach for two years between 2015 and 2017. He returned to Stamford Bridge in 2017 and won the FA Cup in 2018, the Europa League in 2019 and the Champions League in 2021. Christensen has played 160 games (2 goals) for the Blues. He also made 57 appearances for the Danish national team (2 goals), reaching the semi-finals of Euro 2020 and playing in every match.

The Egyptian international Mahmoud Hassan, alias Trezeguet, signed for 4 season with the Turkish champion Trabzonspor.

The 27-year-old left winger has played for Basaksehir in Turkey since February, who borrowed him from Aston Villa.

The midfielder with a Belgian past – he defended the colors of Anderlecht and Mouscron – also played in Turkey between 2017 and 2019, at Kasimpasa.

International media are certain: Christian Eriksen is continuing his career at Manchester United. The Dane would sign a three-year contract. Over the past year, Eriksen relaunched his career, which seemed to end after a cardiac arrest at the European Championship, at Brentford.

There, the midfielder quickly regained his old level after his return in March. And so Eriksen had the options for the past few weeks. United now seem to be winning the battle – there is already an oral agreement with the English top club. Trainer Erik ten Hag was reportedly a big supporter of his arrival.

Barcelona have their first – but certainly not last – summer signing. Franck Kessié (25) comes over from AC Milan transfer-free. The powerful Ivorian midfielder is often compared to his compatriot Yaya Touré. In Milan they see Kessié leave with a heavy heart. The club have done everything they can in recent months to seduce him with a new contract. In vain. At Barca, he needs to give Xavi a better balance in midfield. Kessié signed until 2026.
