Coming up:
As they are one of my favorite things to write, there will be columns, and comments on the transfer window. But, considering they do take a while and that free time is limited, for now we’ll stick to match reports and quick news on Instagram.
Coming up, later in the evening: the full match report on Maccabi – Zvezda, and the CSKA – Bamberg highlights. Stay tuned. 🙂
