Espanyol have had a tough season so far, but they can give themselves the best possible chance of avoiding relegation if they have a strong winter transfer window. They are expected to be busy, and the first deal is already close to being completed.
A new central defender has been on the agenda for Los Pericos, and they have identified Pablo Ramon as their main target. Ace for AS Diarya deal has been agreed with Real Madrid.
Espanyol will not pay a transfer fee for Ramon, for which they will take 50% of his fees. It means that Real Madrid will net a 50% sale clause, which is something they have tried to use often in recent years when selling their academy players.
Ramon should be the first of many signings to arrive at Stage Front Stadium this month. Spanish will also target a new striker, given that Alejo Veliz is expected to be recalled by Tottenham Hotspur.
