Despite the dominance of the Premier League, there are actually a number of other divisions around Europe. Across the entire continent, transfers are obviously rife at this time of year, with huge influxes of players making their way from division to division, to find the style of play which will allow them to flourish to the best of their ability. An awareness of the world around us is always required, if only as to inform your friends smugly that a certain player will be a hit in a few years. There are plenty of signings to get exciting about, whether they be for extortionate prices or a snip. Minimum fee release clauses are often a club's worst enemy, leading to some hierarchies having little option but to wave goodbye to their star players. As teams strengthen with one eye on the league and another warily placed upon their continental obligations for the season, there have been deals in abundance as cohesive squads look to be merrily pieced together before all of Europe's top flights are underway for the new campaign. With that in mind we're looking at the players who ply their trade outside of Britain's borders, but who could be lighting up a television screen near you soon, taking part in the intriguing contest which is mid-week European competition.
