Inter confirm Medel signing

Inter Milano have confirmed the signing of Gary Medel from Cardiff City for an undisclosed fee.

The Chile midfielder had already been training with his new team-mates, but the Italian club did not officially announce his arrival until Saturday.

Medel, who made 34 Premier League appearances for Cardiff in the top flight last season, has signed a 4-year contract at Meazza.

Wolfsburg complete Bendtner deal

VfL Wolfsburg have completed the signing of Nicklas Bendtner on a free transfer following his release from Arsenal.

The Denmark international failed to hold down a regular starting spot during his 9-year spell at Emirates Stadium, and his contract was not renewed at the end of the 2013/2014 campaign.

Bendtner had been linked with a move to Wolfsburg in recent days, and the Bundesliga club confirmed that the 26-year-old had arrived at the Volkswagen ArenA on Friday.

Stoke complete Moses loan

Stoke City have added Chelsea winger Victor Moses to their ranks, signing the Nigerian on a season-long loan.

Moses' arrival bolsters Mark Hughes' side further following the signings of Mame Biram Diouf, Phil Bardsley, Steve Sidwell, Bojan Krkic and Dionatan Teixeira.

The 23-year-old, who joined Chelsea from Wigan Athletic in August 2012, has endured a largely unsuccessful spell at Stamford Bridge, failing to establish himself as a first-team regular with the London club.

The Nigeria international spent last season on loan at Liverpool, but managed to score just 2 goals in 22 appearances as the Merseyside club narrowly missed out on the Premier League title with a second-place finish.

He will hope to make more of an impression with Stoke, who are looking to continue their progression after recording their highest Premier League finish of ninth in the 2013/2014 campaign.

Fer close to QPR switch

Leroy Fer is undergoing a medical at QPR ahead of £7 million move from Norwich City, according to reports.

The 24-year-old midfielder impressed after moving to Carrow Road from FC Twente last summer, although was unable to help the club avoid relegation.

Fer went on to feature for Holland at the World Cup and came off the bench in Norwich's 3-0 defeat of Watford on Saturday.

Canaries manager Neil Adams downplayed an impending move ahead of Tuesday's Championship fixture against Blackburn Rovers, but Press Association Sport understands that the midfielder's exit is imminent.

Fer is believed to be undergoing a medical at QPR on Tuesday morning after the club's agreed a fee in the region of £7 million.

The Dutchman is set to sign a 3-year deal at Loftus Road, where he could soon be joined by Chile international Eduardo Vargas.

The Napoli striker is attracting interest from across Europe and, having signed compatriot Mauricio Isla, the Hoops are hoping to get a deal over the line potentially the next 48 hours.

Baptistao returns to Rayo

Rayo Vallecano have completed a deal to re-sign striker Leo Baptistao from Atletico Madrid on a season-long loan.

The 21-year-old Brazilian left Rayo to join the Spanish champions last June, but made only 5 appearances - and just one start - for Diego Simeone's side in La Liga before being loaned to Real Betis in January.

Baptistao was linked with a move to West Ham and Genoa, but will remain in Madrid after agreeing to join the club where he made a name for himself before sealing a switch to Vicente Calderon.

Napoli sign De Guzman

Napoli have announced the signing of Holland international Jonathan de Guzman from Villarreal.

The attacking midfielder has spent the past 2 seasons on loan at Premier League side Swansea City, becoming an integral part of their first-team squad.

However, it has now been confirmed that De Guzman has joined former Swansea team-mate Michu in making the move to Stadio San Paolo.

De Guzman, who signed for Villarreal in 2011, was brought to Swansea by then-manager Michael Laudrup during the 2012 close-season and made 37 league appearances during his first season in south Wales.

He made a further 34 outings last term, taking his total goal tally to 9 in the English top flight, and was linked with a return to the Liberty Stadium for a third season earlier in the transfer window.

Jerome joins Norwich

Cameron Jerome has joined Norwich City for an undisclosed fee from Stoke City and been backed to add "power and pace" in attack.

Norwich manager Neil Adams believes Jerome will prove to be a shrewd signing as the Championship club battle to return to the Premier League at the first time of asking.

The 28-year-old, who spent last season on loan at Crystal Palace, has penned a 3-year deal at Carrow Road to bring to an end a 3-year spell at Stoke that produced 12 goals in 67 appearances.

Bayern complete Benatia swoop

Bayern Munchen have completed the signing of AS Roma defender Mehdi Benatia on an 5-year contract.

The Bundesliga champions had been heavily linked with centre-back Benatia after Javi Martinez suffered a serious knee injury in their DFL SuperCup defeat to Borussia Dortmund.

And Bayern announced on Tuesday that the 27-year-old Morocco international has put pen-to-paper on a long-term deal at the Allianz ArenA after they agreed a fee thought to be in the region of €30 million with AS Roma.

Benatia joined Roma from Udinese in July last year and enjoyed an outstanding campaign in the Italian capital, making 33 Serie A appearances as Rudi Garcia's side finished second, behind Juventus.

Hull announce Dawson signing

Hull City have confirmed the signing of defender Michael Dawson from Tottenham Hotspur for an undisclosed fee.

The 30-year-old arrives at the KC Stadium on a 3-year contract, following in the footsteps of brother Andy, who spent 10 years at the club.

Dawson, who has won 4 England caps, appeared to be surplus to requirements at White Hart Lane, where he held the role of club captain.

AS Roma sign Holebas

AS Roma raided Olympiacos for the second time in the space of a week, this time securing the services of Greek left-back Jose Holebas.

After signing centre-back Kostas Manolas earlier in the week, Roma confirmed the capture of Greece international team-mate Holebas - capped 26 times at international level - for a €1 million fee following Saturday's opening Serie A win over Fiorentina.

Holebas has penned a 3-year deal with last season's Serie A runners-up after playing an integral role in Greece's run to the last 16 at the World Cup in Brazil.

The 30-year-old's move to Roma ends his trophy-laden 4-year spell with the Greek giants, having arrived from German outfit 1860 Munchen in 2010.

He won the Greek Superleague title in all 4 seasons at Karaiskakis Stadium, while he also lifted back-to-back Greek Cup trophies.

Holebas is expected to be the final piece of business from coach Rudi Garcia in the transfer market following the arrivals of Juan Iturbe, Ashley Cole, Urby Emanuelson, Salih Ucan, Leandro Paredes, Alan Arario, Seydou Keita, Davide Astori and Manolas.

West Ham wrap up Song loan

West Ham have completed the signing of FC Barcelona midfielder Alex Song on a season-long loan deal.

The 26-year-old Cameroon international struggled to hold down a regular place at Camp Nou following a move from Arsenal in 2012 and returns to the Premier League with the Hammers.

He was paraded at Upton Park ahead of the clash with Southampton on Saturday afternoon.

Clubs throughout Europe were put on alert when it emerged Song would be allowed to leave Barca - with West Ham having won the race to sign him on a temporary basis despite reported interest from the likes of Napoli and Galatasaray.

Song revealed it was a conversation with Hammers boss Sam Allardyce that led to his decision to move to east London and he is targeting European qualification.

Song, who won one La Liga title during his spell in Spain, is likely to be West Ham's final summer signing - taking the total of new recruits to 8.

Brondby confirm Agger signing

Brondby have re-signed Liverpool defender Daniel Agger for a fee in the region of £3 million.

The 29-year-old had fallen out of favour at Anfield and was linked with FC Barcelona and Napoli but has opted to return to his former club in Denmark.

Agger, who has played 232 times for Liverpool since joining from Brondby in 2006 for £6 million, has struggled to secure a place in Brendan Rodgers' side and the recent £20 million signing of Dejan Lovren has convinced him to move away from Anfield.

Hertha bring in Kalou

Hertha Berlin have completed the signing of Ivory Coast international Salomon Kalou on a 3-year deal.

The 29-year-old moves to the German capital from Lille, where he spent 2 seasons having joined from Premier League side Chelsea.

Kalou scored 34 goals in all competitions for the French club but now switches to Berlin for his first taste of the Bundesliga.

Napoli complete signing of Espanyol midfielder Lopez

Napoli have completed the signing of Espanyol midfielder David Lopez on a 5-year contract.

La Liga outfit Espanyol announced on Saturday that they had agreed to sell the 24-year-old to the Serie A side, and the deal has now been ratified.

The agreement is believed to be worth around €5 million and sees Lopez become Napoli's fifth acquisition of the transfer window.

The defensive midfielder will likely fill the void left by Valon Behrami, who departed the Stadio San Paolo to join Bundesliga side SV Hamburg.

Atletico agree Cerci deal

Atletico Madrid have reached a deal with FC Torino to sign Italy forward Alessio Cerci.

The 27-year-old has been linked with a move to Atletico throughout the transfer window, and will put pen-to-paper on a 3-year deal at the Vicente Calderon subject to a medical and the agreement of personal terms.

Cerci starred for Torino in Serie A last season, scoring 13 goals in 37 appearances to help the club to a 7th place finish, and that form has persuaded the Spanish champions to spend a reported €16 million on his services.

Chelsea swoop for Remy

France striker Loic Remy has joined Chelsea from QPR, little more than a month after a proposed switch to Liverpool fell through.

Remy appeared set to join Liverpool in July, only for Brendan Rodgers' side to pull the plug on the deal amid reports of the 27-year-old failing a medical.

However, that has not dissuaded Chelsea from making a move for a player who scored 14 Premier League goals in 26 appearances when on loan at Newcastle last season.

Having agreed to let Fernando Torres move to AC Milan on a 2-year loan, Chelsea were keen to bring in an additional centre-forward to compete with Diego Costa and Didier Drogba.

And Remy has penned a 4-year deal at Stamford Bridge.

Oliveira joins Swansea on loan

Swansea have agreed terms to sign Portugal striker Nelson Oliveira from Benfica on loan until the end of the season.

The deal will officially go through when the transfer window reopens on 1 January.

Oliveira has barely featured for Benfica, despite coming through the club's academy and signing professional terms in 2009.

He has had loan spells at 4 clubs, including Spanish side Deportiva La Coruna as well as Portuguese teams Rio Ave and Pacos Ferreira.

Oliveira has won 14 caps for his country and featured for them at EURO 2012.

Swansea are in need of a striker to help fill the gap left by Bony's expected involvement for the Ivory Coast at the upcoming African Cup of Nations.

Michu is on loan at Napoli for the remainder of the season leaving boss Garry Monk with Bony, Marvin Emnes, Bafetimbi Gomis and Rory Donnelly as his options up front.
