Maybe he can be a role model but in this time there are many other options that seem to have more potential for the future.
How can he be a role model if he has so much drama around his career though? Maybe he's different when you see him in person, but it's hard to see that when young players consume social media content a lot. If a role model is what a club is looking for, maybe they should go for someone like Milner instead. He works hard and has leadership qualities, never see him in any drama whatsoever. Not sure if players like him are available on the market, especially outside of the Premier League though.

Lacazette? It's absolutely no way to sign him from Lyon. He's a finished player, and i hope this rumor will never come true. He's been bad at Lyon. He played 10 games and only scored 2 goals. He's too far to be compared to Joselu, and 10 million is overpriced for him.
You shouldn't only look at the current season.

Look at the previous season, he was a top scorer, in 2022 he scored 27 goals and become the best player in Lyon, in 2023  he scored 19 goals and become the second best player in Lyon. 10 Million Euros is worth it, especially Real Madrid really need a striker.

Joselu is nothing different than Lacazette.

I can't believe with my eyes, Manchester United is requesting to loan Kolo-Muani from PSG. They do it caused by their financial issue. They are asking PSG to let him out from there, though, i doubt PSG letting him leave even as a loan.
It's high likely just a rumor, Amorim is too aggressive and want to sign any players he likes, he should sign underrated players instead of overrated players. When the players are from England, Brazil and France, the price went up to 2-10x than other players with similar performance.

Pep Guardiola is reported to have extended his service with Manchester City until 2027. It is known that his contract with The Citizen will end at the end of the 2026 season and many speculate that Pep Guardiola will leave Man City and he will switch to become a national team coach to achieve new challenges and achievements that he has always wanted to conquer, namely the World Cup, but because of his love for Man City, it seems he wants to stay longer and win many titles so that he can become a historic coach for Man City and this must be happy news for Man City fans because they have loved the coach.

If we look at his performance, of course he has no trouble adapting to the Turkish league because so far he has played 6 matches in the Turkish league by scoring 6 goals and 3 matches in the European league by scoring 2 goals. With that I believe he will get many new offers in this winter transfer market, I think Arsenal can glance at him because Arsenal needs a goal-hungry striker.
Osimhen charm has not faded even though there was a dispute with Napoli which resulted in him being crossed out from the squad list led by Antonio Conte. He was forced to move to Galatasaray on loan to get playing time to maintain his fitness. With his new club, he managed to amaze everyone with his performance, now several clubs are starting to show interest in bringing him in, including Manchester United who want to give €30 million + Zirkzee to Napoli to get him to Old Trafford.

If Pogba still wants to play then whoever recruits him in the transfer market should be able to accept him even though sometimes the salary is a little smaller. If he hopes to play in a big club with the salary he wants, then I think it will be a little impossible because every team must have considerations before recruiting the players they need.

There are many rumors that Pogba will go to MLS or SPL. But with the injury history, I think the club has to think a lot to consider the advantages and disadvantages.  I agree with young players, but Pogba was a great player in his time. Maybe he can be a role model but in this time there are many other options that seem to have more potential for the future. I wouldn't have bought Pogba if I was the owner of the team.

There are almost no more European players over 30 years old, maybe 1 or 2 more seasons for players over 30 years old to be in the European League. I am more confident that Paul Pogba will continue to play in the Arab League there. He will be comfortable playing because the competition is not as tough as the European League.
Physically and in terms of performance, it is impossible for a European club to sign him for a big salary, especially since Pogba is prone to injury, so he cannot fully play the quality of the game. Again, this scenario will not happen if you look at your age and physical condition which is already starting to decline.
There are many talented young players who show their best skills every season and that is why players over 30 years old will have a little difficulty competing for a place. The club will also look at the long term to buy players so they can help the team develop more compared to recruiting old players who have to pay too much. If Pogba still wants to play then whoever recruits him in the transfer market should be able to accept him even though sometimes the salary is a little smaller. If he hopes to play in a big club with the salary he wants, then I think it will be a little impossible because every team must have considerations before recruiting the players they need.

I stand with Palestine.
Napoli has always been a difficult club. I blame Osimhen for signing a new deal with Napoli when he knew he would leave at the end of the season. After the season they won the league he was I so much form so he felt teams will pay 100 million for him but it turned out that that was not the case.

He's doing well in Galatasarey and I won't expect him to leave by January. If he keeps performing till the end of the season, an European club might come form him, but Napoli is going to have to reduce their asking price and Osimhen should be ready to take a pay cut.
Osimhen's quality has never been in doubt for me, he's good, but for some reasons, team ms don't want to trust him and his injury problems and issues with Napoli is part of the problems.
Napoli is known for being tough club and Victor Osimhen story is good example. Osimhen signed new deal with Napoli even though he planned to leave which raises questions. After Napoli won league Osimhen played well and thought he would get big transfer fee but that did not happen. Now he is doing well at Galatasaray and likely can not leave by January. If he keeps playing well until end of season European club might want him but Napoli needs to lower their price and Osimhen should be ready to take pay cut. Osimhen is great player but his injuries and issues at Napoli make clubs hesitant. To play for top team again Osimhen must show consistency and adjust his financial expectations.

The news rumor said that while waiitng for the new club, Pogba will probably likely be in Man United Carrington training facilities for training.

Source: Paul Pogba

The truth would be spectacular to have Pgba in the ranks of a MU , because basically this team is going to do very well, I like the way they are doing things, they have a Different way of thinking and making plans, for me it's an opportunity for Pogba to emerge , he's very good ,  but his disciplinary side has to be handled and leave the conflict aside a bit, at this point he should know that any fight will not lead him to anything good, he should just concentrate on playing and get the best out of himself to contribute to any team that trusts in him.

But victor Osimhen has already made it clear that he will not leave Galatasary this January. That he is going to stay with them till the end of the season. So whatever the Napoli management are doing to sell Osimhen by January to any Saudi club will not work. Osimhen is prepared to take a pay cut to remain in Galatasary till the end of the season, just to show the Napoli management that he is a Man, and shouldn't be treated like a commodity that doesn't have a say in any decision regarding him. As for me I'm in support that Osimhen should remain at Galatasary till the end of season. Napoli will be the one that will lose at the. Osimhen is happy in Turkey and they should allow him concentrate and keep scoring goals.

Beşiktaş, which has been short of wingers this season, has started to hear the voices of Jeremie Boga. The 27-year-old left winger, who plays for OGC Nice, could be exactly the player Beşiktaş wants. GvB, who tried Semih Kılıçsoy, Joao Mario and even Rafa Silva on the left wing but failed to get the desired result, can play the game they want with Boga. The fact that the player has a market value of 15 million Euro and Nice don't want to let him go makes this transfer difficult. But with this news in the media, there must be a way to make this happen.

I agree with this because if they really wanted a striker then why would they let Joselu go at the start of this season, even though he is still very useful if used as a back-up option in Madrid's rotation.

For some reason, I always don't like Ancelotti's way of looking as if there are no big problems in his squad. Although I quite agree that the reasons for their player's confidence in being able to survive conditions like this reflect that he really believes in the player, of course there must be several other considerations that must be taken into account.
Currently they have several injured defenders and some of them will definitely be recovering until the end of this season because of their ACL. Seeing this, Ancelotti should pay more attention to more important things first because Alaba, Carvajal and Militao still have a long time to recover and even if they recover, the worst possibility is that they will have to re-adapt so it is clear that there must be other options to improve their performance in conditions like this.

First of all I don’t think they are anybody who would have actually thought of the current dilemma and as such just to work they had to honor Joselu who was the one home self to hand in transfer request.

As for This Ancelloti actually was confident of the attackers and nothing bad there we all thought that the arrival of Mbappe was a blockbuster but everything isn’t going as planned which is not good but also not the fault of the people.

As for the defensive aspect where Madrid are short off in the first team I think the board was the cause of the problem because it was first of all the saga which even involved Manchester United player Leny Yoro, with Madrid not having David Alaba back they wanted Yoro but wanted him in way too much less than the evaluation that the Lille board rated him and when Madrid fell out of the deal they decided not go for another player again which was the reason why they are in this defensive mess, I think they will actually break their own rule this time around and sign new players by January

Victor Osimhen arrival has greatly improved Galatasaray chances of winning their domestic league and made them stronger in Europa League. However it is unclear how long he will stay despite seeming happy. Osimhen likely wants to join top English club in January to gain more recognition and win trophies. His main goals are to be recognized and win titles and play for top team. English clubs will closely watch his next move as his departure from Galatasaray seems imminent.
Osimhen joined Galatasaray because in the summer transfer market last year because he was crossed out from the list of Napoli players after he stated that he wanted to leave Napoli but various offers that came, none of them reached an agreement so at that time Osimhen had to choose Galatasaray as his next team before he moved to another team.

If we look at his performance, of course he has no trouble adapting to the Turkish league because so far he has played 6 matches in the Turkish league by scoring 6 goals and 3 matches in the European league by scoring 2 goals. With that I believe he will get many new offers in this winter transfer market, I think Arsenal can glance at him because Arsenal needs a goal-hungry striker.
Osimhen was lucky to join Galatasaray, taking advantage of the still open transfer window to still choose to leave Napoli. Osimhen performance with Galatasaray is quite good, Arsenal should make him a target to strengthen the front line. But the competition to get his signature I think is very tough, especially in terms of finance and also in terms of enthusiasts. Osimhen will be the hottest property in the upcoming transfer market, but most likely the player will stay for a full season in Turkey.

It is unlikely that Osimhen will return to his parent club Napoli, when his loan period ends at Galatasaray. Lukaku has succeeded in playing Osimhen role in Napoli front line, Conte looks very satisfied with the performance of the former Chelsea player. The impact of Osimhen recruitment is clearly felt by Galatasaray in this season, they can talk a lot in the Europa League and at the domestic level.

Their squad in attack is not short of players only lacking mentality in finishing so there is no need to return to stacking strikers especially for old strikers like Lacazette. What they need is a player who can patch up the defense in the condition of the players who are currently hit by a storm of injuries long enough to make Madrid have to try to patch up this position more.

I really don't understand why Napoli insist on such a huge transfer fee for Victor Osimhen. Even though he is a good striker, and has been instrumental to their success, such an hefty price tag might chase away interested clubs. I doubt if any club (apart from Saudi clubs) will be willing to pay such an amount, when there are equally top talented players available for more cheaper price. Napoli do not look like they are going to lower their asking price for Osimhen, they want to make a lot of profit from the player.
The hierarchy of Napoli is actually a joke, upon all victor osimhen has given to the club they still just want to frustrate him, but one good thing is that victor osimhen is also ready for any roller coaster ride that is coming from the hierarchy of Napoli, he will not agree to be chip away to the Saudi Arabian League just like a nobody, but if truly it's 75million euros place on him, then I think that it would be fair considering the quality of victor osimhen and what he can offers to any club he went to.
Then as for Galatasaray, if they can retain his services?
No, I really don't think that they can retain his services with their financial status right now, unless something extraordinary happens between now and the end of the season.
But victor Osimhen has already made it clear that he will not leave Galatasary this January. That he is going to stay with them till the end of the season. So whatever the Napoli management are doing to sell Osimhen by January to any Saudi club will not work.

Osimhen is happy in Turkey and they should allow him concentrate and keep scoring goals.

If it's a case of staying at Galatsaray just to avoid being sold to saudi arabia then obviously it's better to stay, but it's kind of savage to sell a player without his consent. It is clear that they are in a quarrel with the team management, but they can't sell him to another team without his opinion. Victor deserves to play in Europe for example, but if he likes it in Turkey, then so be it....

Most chances we will be having Arsenal and Newcastle United which can go good for his future because things are looking favourable for him with we have few rumours Tottenham is also having some interest but it's never been easy to predict about anything until end of this season when all will be clear.
Though he is still 28 turning 29 around January which is already closed by.
I think he should either move to Tottenham if he wants more game time because Saka plays right wing at Arsenal while at Newcastle United, Alexander Isak  plays that same position. These are key players for their various teams and it will be hard to take them out of the picking order.

While moving to Tottenham literally limits the chances of winning a trophy,I still think he will more important there especially for them getting goals and possibly maybe lift a trophy after so many years. Though I think more Epl team will show interest once everything is finally clear on his future especially when it maybe a free transfer.

As far as I know, Real Madrid already has several star players who play in the front line but I just read the news on Twitter that Real Madrid is targeting Alexandre Lacazette to recruit in the January transfer market, I wonder why Real Madrid recruited the French striker? even though he is already 33 years old while Madrid already has good strikers at the moment but I think he might be used as a second-string player if one of Madrid's strikers gets injured I see his statistics at Lyon are also quite good in the last few seasons.
I honestly don't think this is a good option. Trying to bring back strikers instead of strengthening their defense is a condition that in my opinion Ancelotti is too trying something new for the current Madrid squad.
Although I know that in the end Madrid's performance, especially for finishing now, is not too good for us to see, but in the end trying to bring back a new striker even though this is only a coating will actually further pile up unused attacking players and even minimal defensive players are currently increasingly struggling to patch up the gaps that exist.

Their squad in attack is not short of players only lacking mentality in finishing so there is no need to return to stacking strikers especially for old strikers like Lacazette. What they need is a player who can patch up the defense in the condition of the players who are currently hit by a storm of injuries long enough to make Madrid have to try to patch up this position more.

That was what happened that Chelsea and other teams couldn’t reach an agreement to sign him last summer, they were too greedy with the price and if they continue that they will find it difficult to sell him as the high price will chase potential buyers away. Osimhen is a good striker and will have influence on any team he joins just as he is doing at Galatasaray now but still Napoli should reconsider and lower his price tag.

50 million is good offer and if any team should bring such offer Napoli should take it to me it’s a fair price. Football price on players is not like in the past they’re now higher and even a less experience player will worth much money than they should so with Osimhen’s experience they can still get a fair offer but not as much as they want.

It would be very difficult for Bayer Leverkusen to keep hold of Florian Wirtz for longer than this season, some of Europe's top clubs have been monitoring him and it would be no surprise if he moves to a very big club next summer. I don't know which of these clubs will sign him, but they all have a shot, it would depend on where the player intends to go and in which team he sees a future.
Who's considering triggering the sell clause of their young rare gems? None of these elite teams would pulled such move if my opinion is been uttered. The promising future of these players are classified based on the epic performance of these teams, it doesn't matter if they're elite or average clubs. The January transfer window is by the corner and these elite clubs are preparing to offer huge bids for their ultimate targets. Bayer Leverkusen is an elite team that knows what's best for them, they align so well with the current players and we know the steady running of these teams. Florian Wirtz is a special player, he knows the special abilities to explore with his current team. He's valued high because he's in his prime, he handles his position so perfect and admired but supporters and Xabi Alonso.
