After the 2026 World Cup, the spotlight remains on Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha wea‑r his heroic opener against Spain. At Colo Colo’s packed David Arellano Monumental Stadium, the club celebrated the free‑transfer signing with a giant “AURA” banner, a display of 34 league titles, and a parachutist dropping his No. 29 jersey. The ceremony included musical acts from Argentine band Garras de Amor and a fan‑filled crowd.

Meanwhile, Liverpool legend Mohamed Salah, a free agent after leaving the Reds, signed with Turkish Super Lig club Trabzonspor. His debut day began at the airport, where fans greeted him in the club’s iconic No. 61 jersey before he switched to his favourite No. 10. Salah then signed his contract and trained before a pyrotechnic‑filled unveiling at Senol Gunes Stadium.

Both unveilings highlighted the global reach of football transfers and the fan‑centric celebrations that accompany a player’s arrival. The events underscore how former World Cup stars can drive excitement in new leagues and clubs.

The star‑powered signings also illustrate the growing trend of high‑profile players moving on free transfers to clubs beyond the traditional powerhouses, bringing experience and marketability to teams like Colo Colo and Trabzonspor.
