FootballChicago Fire 3-1 Vancouver Whitecaps: 3.91 xG, 37 shots, 4 on target
Bamba struck inside nine minutes, Zinckernagel answered his own post, and Haile-Selassie sealed it late at Soldier Field.
No transfer of €10.0M or more has been completed in the last 14 days — the ledger is empty and the market is holding its breath.
The transfer market just posted its quietest scoreline of the season: nothing. No headline deal, no record fee, no spending spree to break down. For a column built on numbers, the number that matters right now is zero.
Silence like this is data too. It says clubs are holding budgets, waiting on triggers, or simply parked between windows. It also resets the baseline: with nothing on the board, the next €10.0M fee will land harder than it would in a busy fortnight. For now, zero is the headline, the trend line and the story — and the first club to break it will own the next news cycle.
