January Transfer Window 2026

Boring stats reasons I'm excited by Holm - among all fullbacks (around 260 of them) in top 5 leagues he is:

1st for possession-adjusted interceptions
3rd for percentage of defensive duels won
5th for possessions won

So elite defensively. But also:

10th for key passes
15th for cross accuracy
16th for expected assists
22nd for crossed to the box

So excellent in contributing to attack too. Just feels like a great fit
He's a good player. Possibly the only RB I can think of who would provide Moyes' comfort blanket whilst also contributing going forward.
 
Was reading this tweet the other day and thought how absolutely mental is that? A club needing full-backs, looking in the market for a full-back. Could never imagine that sort of out-of-the-box thinking going on here.


They're even looking with one eye in Huyton and one in New Brighton
