For a traveler, it is so pleasant to catch the last bus to the return home late at night. For a player, it is not to mention how happy he can catch the "last bus" to the new team at the last moment of the transfer deadline. Isak and Donnarumma felt such thrilling and relief in the early morning of the 2nd. They transferred to Liverpool and Manchester City before the transfer window was completely closed.
Isaac joined Liverpool with a record-breaking Premier League transfer fee of £135 million, while Donalamúma joined Manchester City for €30 million. Both of them have the same experience this summer, that is, they have a falling out with the club. If they cannot transfer in time, the new season will be very embarrassing.
Isaac wanted to transfer to Liverpool last season, but Newcastle United "has a rare item" and declared Isaac a "non-sale product". Liverpool was not tempted by bidding 120 million pounds. This made Isaac very anxious. If the negotiations break down, he would be abandoned for another year in Newcastle United, which had no hope of winning the championship. Therefore, he threatened the club with the strike and the training, but the Newcastle executives were also calm. On the one hand, they were firmly stinging with the high price and not letting go. On the other hand, they were quietly choosing Isaac's stand-in. If there is a suitable candidate, they could also consider letting go.
At this time, Liverpool also remained silent on Newcastle, but instead used a lot of money to sign Ekitic and other players, which prompted Dias to transfer to make room for good news. Newcastle United signed Stuttgart striker Walter Mard two days before the transfer window closed, so that all obstacles were cleared.
In the end, Liverpool first let down and used a £135 million pound that Newcastle United could not refuse. At the last moment of the transfer, Isaac successfully landed in Liverpool.
Donnarumma's story is similar to Isaac. He was a great contributor to Paris Saint-Germain's Champions League and Ligue 1 last season. However, this season, due to the joining of a young new goalkeeper, his status is not guaranteed, and the annual salary for renewal is too high, the club defines him as "abandoned". Annual salary has become his biggest obstacle to joining other teams, so although he has been clamoring to leave all summer, he can't go anywhere.
Manchester City is the only giant club with the ability and ideas to sign Donaluma, but there is also an obstacle, that is, the stay and stay of Manchester City's old goalkeeper Ederson. This player is also a hero who has experienced the glorious era of "Blue Moon". He can't find his next home. Manchester City is not good enough to sign Donnarumma and let the two tigers compete. It happened that on the last day of the transfer, Ederson's joining the Turkish Premier League Fenerbahce was all settled. Although there was not much time left for Manchester City, they were still one step ahead and snatched Donnarumma for 30 million euros.
In this way, after two months of summer transfer period, everything was settled. Isaac went to Liverpool happily, and Donnarumma didn't have to live a frustrated life in Paris. However, the most powerful England defender Guy couldn't laugh. Before the last bus left, his boss Crystal Palace still couldn't handle his replacement, so the plan to transfer to Liverpool was cancelled, and Guy's match with Liverpool came to an abrupt end. Otherwise, Liverpool would be perfect in the new season.
