Mundo Albiceleste’s Transfer page!

Introducing a new section here on Mundo Albiceleste, the Transfers page!

While we will continue to update you on all the transfers involving Argentinian players to and from Europe, it can get a bit difficult to keep track of them all. Which is why we are compilling (and are still working) on the Transfers page. In that section, you will be able to find all the transfers involving Argentinian players in Europe as of June 1, 2016 until present. This page can be accessed through our navigation menu by clicking on TRANSFERS or by clicking this link.

The list also includes those leaving Europe (Fabricio COLOCCINI going to San Lorenzo) and the likes of Geronimo RULLI (signed with Manchester City but remains a Real Sociedad player).

It is a section we are still working on and considering the large number of Argentinian players moving around, it is not always easy to catch. If you feel like we have missed one, do let us know!

Thank you!
