TRANSFERS: Winter 2018 Transfer Window Dates - Open/Close

 

So its that time of the year again, and if you are like me, I have trouble tracking opens/closes of transfer windows. So here's my list - I figured I would share it, so you can reference it when ever you need to. I intentionally left out many countries, some we have no active Americans playing, some are not in the Euro/Scandinavian region - so please don't troll me for leaving them out. 

We are blessed to have players all over the World, some I just have no idea about - if you know of any players that I missed,  please let me know

You can follow all the moves here;

Here are the dates for when some of the transfer windows open and close

WEEKLY WRAP: 9.4 thru 9.10.2017: Parks, Autran, Ben On Target, Hill and Gal Brick Walls in Goal

A slow start to the week, and then an explosion of activity as the International window closes. Overall I would rate this weeks action as a 5, kind of blah, but with some stellar performances.

Lets start with Keaton Parks, who had a great outing for Benfica B, scoring a goal and providing another to a team mate. It looks as though Keaton is settling in well at his new club, and certainly the fans seem to like him. Dylan Autran scored twice and basically gave his team the win as he has found his form in Finland. Jann George is on fire in Germany's 2Liga with 2 assists this week he has now accrued 3 goals and 2 assists in just 4 games. Finally, a great story out of Finland where Gerald Ben finished his 5th game at MiKi since joining them, and, he has already scored 6 times. Teaming with MiKi's other American Isaac Kannah one of them has scored in each of the last 5 games.

As for the Goalkeepers, Chris Hill has now played twice for his new club, allowed 1 goal, and today had his first shut out. For Jeff Gal in Sweden it must feel like Christmas all the time - yes another shut-out for Jeff making 11 clean sheets in the league this season in 21 matches (only 2 losses) and the likely-hood of Division 1 soccer next season.

Lets just go to the lists, the short version first, as usual........

GOALS
Isaac Kannah - Finland
Keaton Parks - Portugal
Dylan Autran (2) - Finland
Felix De Bona - Finland
Etch Tabe - Finland
Jacob Bushue - Finland
Leonard Taylor - Sweden

In Kakkonen (Group C) Jossimer Sanchez (90 + yellow) Chris Corcoran (90) and GBK faced of with TP-47 and Jordan Rouse (45) and added another away win to their belts with their 6th straight win, but it may not be enough to catch AC Kajaani who are 5 points ahead in the only promotion spot

Ljungskile has now lost 4 straight and they continue on their downward spiral. GK Zak Lubin has been demoted to the bench and that didn't help at all as they lose 2 - 0 at #1 Landskrona in Sweden Division 1 (Sodra).

Dion Acoff was in the 18 for Valur as they extended their lead at the top of Iceland's Pepsidelid to 5 points, by beating #4 Grindavik with Will Daniels who came off the bench for the 2nd half.

WEDNESDAY

In Lithuania A Lyga, Philip Atbashyan remained on the bench as Utenis fought to a 1 - 1 draw at Kauno Zalgiris. Utenis look a fairly safe bet for the post-season championship group

In Germany's Regionalliga (Sudwest) Joel Sonora (90) gave Stuttgart II the lead twice Scoring the 2nd and 3rd Goals in a 4 - 4 draw at Rochling. Stuttgart II just can't seem to win, that's 4 draws in 5 outings, sitting in 9th place and they have yet to lose a game - wierd

In Germany's Oberliga (Baden-Württemberg) Toni Suddoth (78) as Pforzheim traveled to Freiberg Fußball and lost 2 - 1

Championship side Nottingham Forest with Eric Lichaj (90 + ET) found a way past newly promoted Newcastle 2 - 3 in the EFL Cup in ET

Its always a bit of a job, when League One teams pull a Premier League team in a cup game, and to play away from home just adds to the pain. So poor Rochdale and GK Brendan Moore entered the match with just the slimmest of hope, which was quickly crushed as they fall 4 - 0 at Stoke City in EFL

Nebiyou Perry was in the squad, but remained on the bench, as AIK traveled to Varmbols in the Svenska Cupen 2nd round and won 0 - 1

Mix Diskerud started for Goteborg in their 0 - 5 win at, 3rd Division, Landvetter, but unfortunately I cannot tell you if he lasted a minute/the whole game or somewhere in-between. I can tell from the Goteborg website that they played much (if not all) of the 2nd half with their Youth Squad. I have praised the Swedish FA in the past for its wonderful web-site - but I am guessing with minnows still in the competition receiving the detailed info is hard for even them.

THURSDAY

Tel Aviv's effort to qualify...We will find out the groupings 8/25 - first group play is 9/14 Note - it will be Group A

In the other Europa League Qualifier of interest to US followers, GK Ethan Horvath (90) and Club Brugge were eliminated as AEK of Greece totally dominated the match, winning 3 - 0. The aggregate score was also 3 - 0 as the first leg in Belgium was goalless.
