The national and international clubs are planning for the coming second half of the season. All important news in the transfer ticker.
The German clubs are allowed to sign additional players until February 2nd (8 p.m.). At t-online you can find an overview of information about changes from Germany and the world.
So far, something has only happened at BVB on the exit side. After the changes of Pascal Groß and Cole Campbell, the club is, according to “Bild”, examining a possible winter transfer: Aleksandar Stanković (20) from Club Bruges is therefore on the BVB bosses’ list. The Serbian U21 international is the son of former Inter star Dejan Stankovic.
He came to Belgium from Milan in the summer for 9.5 million euros – and has significantly increased his market value since then. In addition to BVB, Leverkusen and other clubs are also said to be interested. It remains to be seen whether Dortmund will take action now. The squad in central midfield is actually well staffed. An advance could still be worthwhile – before Stanković becomes even more expensive in the summer.
Manchester City have signed Antoine Semenyo from AFC Bournemouth for a sum in the high double-digit millions. The London-born Ghana international signed a five-and-a-half-year contract.
According to media reports, Man City will pay a transfer fee of the equivalent of almost 72 million euros (62.5 million pounds) for the 26-year-old. Bournemouth said it was a record sum for the club, without giving any figures.

Antoine Semenyo is set to make his long-awaited move from Bournemouth to Manchester City. As several media reports, both clubs have agreed on a transfer of the offensive man.
The 26-year-old signed off with a late winner in the 3-2 win over Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday evening and traveled to Manchester to undergo medical tests. If he passes this, he should sign a contract with coach Pep Guardiola’s team until the summer of 2031.
