Transfer Confirmed (IN)

Wednesday 13th July 2016
The signings keep happening this week at Belfast City FC as manager Artemis Beartrappe continues to build a team that can make an assault on the EFL League Two… once again Artemis has dipped into the youth market and has pulled off two great transfers for margin prices especially with the protection both lads have…

Artemis Beartrappe has firstly brought in young Charlton Striker Ademola Lookman on a four year contract worth 3 thousand pounds a week... the reported fee is nine hundred and fifty thousand pounds... the young striker has attracted a lot of attention from the Premier League but has dropped down a division so that he can sign for Belfast City FC...

Ademola Lookman
Lookman joined Charlton's academy in 2014 after signing from Waterloo FC... a youth football club based in the London Borough of Lambeth... His goalscoring record for Charlton's U18 and U21 teams led to him making a rapid ascent through the Charlton academy ranks and he made his first-team debut for the Addicks on 3 November 2015... He scored his first goal for the club in a 3–2 defeat at Brighton & Hove Albion on 5 December 2015... and then followed that up with a brace in a 2–2 draw with Bolton Wanderers on 15 December 2015...
Lookman received his first international call up on 16 May 2016 being named in the England U19 squad for a double header against Mexico... He was subsequently named in the England squad for the European U19 Championships the same summer...

Artemis Beartrappe has once again broken the club transfer record fee splashing out one point two million pounds on West Ham Uniteds centre defender Reece Oxford... Reece, 17, has also be scouted by many a Premier League but decided to drop down to work with Artemis Beartrappe...

Reece Oxford
On 2 July 2015... Oxford made his competitive debut aged 16... starting in midfield in a UEFA Europa League first qualifying round first leg tie against FC Lusitanos... a 3–0 home win... In doing so... he became West Ham's youngest ever player... On 9 August the same year... Oxford started his first professional league game... as West Ham began the Premier League season against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium... playing the first 79 minutes of a 2–0 victory before being replaced by Kevin Nolan... Oxford... who only lost possession once in the match... became the second youngest Premier League starter of all time... after Jose Baxter...

Oxford has played for England up to U20 level and captained his country at the 2015 UEFA European Under-17 Championship... The team reached the quarter-finals... and Oxford scored in the penalty shootout as they defeated Spain in a play-off for the 2015 U-17 World Cup...

Uefa.com described his playing style as "Tall and quick, he is not daunted in the face of illustrious opponents"... Oxford has been, on numerous occasions, compared to former West Ham academy graduate Rio Ferdinand...
