Sparta Prague to Sign Erling Haaland's Cousin Before Champions League Clash with Lyon

According to Polish media Meczyki, Sparta Prague is set to sign Jonatan Braut Brunes, the cousin of Manchester City striker Erling Haaland, from Polish club Raków Częstochowa for a fee exceeding six million euros. This would be the largest transfer in Sparta Prague's history. Brunes, 25, is coming off a prolific season with 26 goals in 49 matches. The transfer comes just before Sparta Prague faces Olympique Lyonnais in the third qualifying round of the Champions League. The first leg is scheduled for August 4 or 5, with the return leg on August 11. Lyon finished fourth in Ligue 1 last season and must navigate the preliminary rounds to reach the group stage.
