UPDATE
There were a series of big moves finalized on 2022 Transfer Deadline Day — winter edition.
We saw Newcastle adding more pieces, Christian Eriksen finding a new club, Tottenham Hotspur and Juventus offloading players, Dele Alli getting a fresh start, and Manchester City landing in-demand Argentine forward Julian Alvarez.
But we're still waiting for the official confirmation of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's impending move to FC Barcelona. There were images of the former Arsenal forward signing papers at Barca's offices and the thought is that the club will wait until Tuesday morning to formally announce its new star signing. Reports are that he comes on a free transfer.
Of course, not every rumored deal went through, whether that was due to teams not concluding the deal (Fulham's Fabio Carvalho to Liverpool), or players refusing to move (Hugo Ekitike and Gini Wijnaldum to Newcastle). In the case of Barcelona's Ousmane Dembele, there apparently wasn't another team that wanted him badly enough in January with the player set to be out of contract in June.

Lastly, two more Americans are getting a crack at the European game: George Bello is heading to the Bundesliga with Arminia Bielefeld and center back Auston Trusty will join Arsenal in July.
