Espanyol have had a tough season so far, but they can give themselves the best possible chance of avoiding relegation if they have a strong winter transfer window. They are expected to be busy and the first deal is almost complete.
A new centre-back is on Los Pericos' agenda and they have identified Pablo Ramon as their main target. According to Diario AS, a deal has been signed with Real Madrid.
Espanyol will not pay a transfer fee for Ramon, for whom they will acquire 50% of his rights. It means Real Madrid will have a 50% sell-on clause, something they have often tried to use when selling academy players in recent years.
Ramon should be the first of several signings to arrive at Stage Front Stadium this month. Espanyol will also be targeting a new striker as Alejo Veliz is expected to be recalled by Tottenham Hotspur.
