Tottenham Hotspur president Daniel Levy took a vacation and went to Miami in USA while Bayern Munich nerves are getting burnt since they didn't receive any response from Spurs yet, and they risk to wait for a longer time.
I don't know if Harry Kane is pushing in his side but letting him to play as a captain in the friendly game vs Donetsk doesn't send a good message for Bayern. It is a waste of time or not?

Once again, caicedo has made it clear if he is willing to leave from brighton. It was giving hope for chelsea in getting him. The only main problem if chelsea doesn't wanna pay 100m for him.




The talk is still ongoing between chelsea and brighton. Caicedo already agreed personally to join in chelsea but he is still waiting for the final decision that will be made by chelsea and brighton. I don't even think todd is willing to repeat the same mistake again when the club was buying so many players with 100m price. Chelsea is trying to be efficient using its money. The club needs Caicedo as chelsea doesn't have good DM at this moment. Caicedo looked like an over priced player if we were comparing his price with his achievements.
At least he is far better compared with paredes from PSG. I would prefer for chelsea to get him instead of paredes which is a stupid option being made by the club.

Yes, it's true that there's nothing wrong with Tottenham releasing Kane because they are not really consistent to get the EPL title and others, I think Kane needs experience for his football so he needs to play at another club to add to his experience so as not to spend the rest of his life playing at Tottenham without any titles , so this will not make him the best player .

Kane must really determine his path of choice to leave Tottenham because if he wants to get a title he can go to a club that has the potential for that, so he doesn't have to stay at Tottenham because so far Kane's struggles have been in vain while at Tottenham without any titles for that is he has a choice too apart from that Tottenham need to let him go for the money and buy another new player. 

The fear experienced by Tottenham because so far they have depended too much on Kane alone, they find it difficult to find an ideal replacement after releasing Kane to another club. Actually Tottenham couldn't keep Kane there any longer, they had to reflect on Barcelona who lost Messi. Sooner or later Tottenham will lose Kane, before Kane leaves for free, Tottenham must immediately sell him in order to get some money to find other players.

Tottenham selfishness in wanting to keep Kane with them any longer is very unfair to Kane, at his current age he needs to win several trophies that he has never been able to get with Tottenham. They have to give up Kane departure for the good of the player and also the club, Kane can achieve his dream with a new club and Tottenham will get some money as compensation for Kane departure.

That's right, Pogba and Maguire are arguably the worst purchases in the history of Manchester United and at such a high price there is almost no commensurate contribution to the club. Instead of contributing, they often make Manchester United suffer losses, both financially and in performance in several matches. Antony has had a pretty good start, but I think he has to be able to prove more of his quality like at Ajax and as one of Erik ten Hag's trusted players he has to prove that next season. I think Rasmus Hojlund's qualities as a young striker will probably be acquired gradually and there is no way he will acquire them in just one season. Surely out there everyone will compare him to Haaland and that is a natural thing because there must be competitors to be able to make the competition more heated to reach the EPL top scorer board next season.

Actually I have not heard too much about this kid. I just know he is only 20 years old, very young. A lot of people are also talking about him, basically praising him a lot. But I hope they don’t overhype the player.

We have seen a lot of players being sold for a huge amount of money but they were unable to perform at their best potential after that. He is young and he will still need a lot of nurturing to actually be able to unlock his full potential. His physical also needs to be improved otherwise he’s going to pick up injuries quickly.

What Tottenham wants is very clear, they want to keep Harry Kane on the club. But Harry Kane has a different intention, he already wanted to leave since a few seasons ago. This is the only reason for Tottenham to sell him in the current transfer window. As far as I know, Harry Kane didn't extend his contract yet. His contract expires on June 2024, he will go for free if he doesn't extend his contract. Actually, Tottenham has no choice, he must sell him now. Bayern Munich offer is also very interesting, they want to pay for above €100m for 30 years old striker. I'm sure only Bayern Munich wants to sign Harry Kane with that huge money. Maybe Tuchel assumes Harry Kane will bring an instant improvement for Bayern Munich, so they never give up to negotiate with Tottenham.

Agree. With the money above €100m, Tottenham won't be very difficult to sign a younger striker who has the potential to be the next superstar in Tottenham. Even they still can't get the replacement, they have Richarlison who play in the same position (CF). In my opinion, Richarlison's ability isn't so different with Harry Kane. He can improve his ability if Tottenham gives him more time to play regularly.

I second that, the transfer market is becoming so ridiculous and unbelievable, Brighton are holding their ground and requesting for 100 million pounds for a one season player, Caicedo, Dortmund received over €100m for Bellingham, etc, some of these players are really brilliant, but their valuation is excessive and they should be worth way less.

The transfer market may be ridiculous, but Manchester United simply no longer know how to do business, i can't remember the last time they did very good business in the transfer market, they need to learn from their neighbors, Man City, how to do good business. Of course Hojlund is nowhere close to the amount that United paid for him, if he succeeds at Old Trafford it might be a good bargain, but if he doesn't, that's just another bad business from United.

Waiting for Holjund first appearance is something we can judge clearly, but if you look at the enthusiasm of the Manchester United fans, it seems that they are expecting a lot. Personally, I just want to see it proven. Being part of the core players whose role is quite large is not easy for Holjund to adapt quickly. Time is the key so that everything is answered carefully. So for the results of the first season, I don't think I would expect too much, as long as Holjund gets a match in the team, then everything will go well. Let's wait and see if this is very promising according to the price Manchester United paid.

Manchester United needed a midfielder as much as they needed a striker and with the signing of Hojlund, many people believe that Manchester United has solved their attacking problem but meanwhile I do not see that Mount is solving any problems in the Manchester United midfield. Amrabat will do extremely better for Manchester United and they need to get him before other clubs become so interested with a higher offer

To be honest, we haven't seen much of Hojlund so far. He was too young in Copenhagen, had decents patches in Austria and Denmark's national team and had a so-so breakthrough season in Italy.

Atalanta bought him for 15 million Euros, he scored 10 goals there in 34 games. Not really something that should have made him a 80+ million euros transfer.
But - it's United I guess. They have been brainless with their buys for quite some time now.

I'm not saying he's not good. I'm just saying that Dolberg had a similar path as a kid and is now barely getting any games. A huge gamble once again, not how you build good teams.

Cristiano Ronaldo left at the end of last year. The MU squad lacked a real striker in the team. Rasmus Hojlund has all the qualities to fill this vacancy. Manchester United needs title seekers, and Hojlund is determined to score, win and conquer trophies. Hojlund has excellent potential. Erik Ten Hag's job is to exploit it. What needs to be done now is that Hojlund has to prove his ability in the next matches. I hope he's not Manchester United's second Harry Maguire.

A big gamble is probably an understatement. I understand that outside of Serie A not many people know who Rasmus Hojlund is and to give 74 million for such a player is a strong and risky move.
The Saudi league at least overpays, but buys already known and played old players with football history and it is cheaper than Manchester deal with Hojlund.

Apparently, Ten Hag has found an approach to the management of Manchester City if they approved such a purchase. At one time Marcial was also bought for similar money, I think 72 million was paid for him then, but as a player I think he did not reveal himself, so let's hope that Ten Hag knows what he is doing and Rasmus Hojlund will be able to play for 74 million paid for him.

This player with the center back position does have a sizable salary plus he still has a contract for 2 more seasons and if you look at it in terms of appearance Laporte also doesn't seem to be playing significantly.
If Pep can sell him, maybe the Manchester City club's expenses will be more stable or even it will still be possible to take other players who are better, after all he is almost 30 years old, even though he can still be counted on as a defender.
But maybe Pep also has other goals so that Laporte is still in defense until his contract expires.

Since laporte is not be included in pep's plan and no point to hold him in the club. It's better to cash him out rather than try to keep him. Manchester city needs to deal with FFP too. Selling laporte gonna be one of best way to decrease its salary expensive for its players.

From which side do you want to get answers? age or playing experience.
Okay. We do not yet know how the story of Hojlund's journey in England will continue because he just joined Manchester United. As long as he joined Atalanta from Strum Graz (a team from Austria), did anyone predict that Hojlund would be the target of a big club with a large fee offer like that of Manchester United? In Serie A with Atalanta, he only played 34 matches and collected 10 goals during one season, but those who are interested in getting him are not only Manchester United, but there are several other big teams. What did they see in the figure of Rasmus Hojlund?

In terms of age, Hojlund is still very young. The age of 20 is the beginning of a golden age for a professional soccer player.
Take the example of James Rodriguez who looks stunning with the Colombian national team. After the World Cup tournament, James became the target of many big European clubs even though he was finally officially acquired by Real Madrid at that time. The question is, during one season with AS Monaco which only recorded 38 matches and 10 goals, why did he deserve such a large transfer fee and then what was his career while playing for Real Madrid.
Hopefully you still remember some of the transfers of players at a young age at other clubs.

So true. In fact, if Tottenham accepts a third offer from Bayern on this one, the club will benefit financially. And in fact, with that money, they really don't need to worry about having trouble finding good players who can become attackers at Spurs. But I also understand that it is impossible to get a striker as good as Kane in this transfer market, there really isn't much time left.

Everyone still doesn't understand what Tottenham will choose in this case. But it seems everyone other than the Tottenham fans are definitely in favor of letting Harry Kane go. Because everyone wants to see this talented player get a better career at a better club. And I think if Spurs turn down the offer on this one then I feel that they have squandered a golden opportunity to get a high transfer fee for Kane's release. Because next season Kane will leave on a free transfer if Spurs don't let him go this season.

The rumors about Harry Kane are still not finished until now, I don't know exactly what Tottenham want, they give a price clause to any club that wants Kane but on the other hand they also want to keep him. I don't understand this. Bayern Munich have been exhausted in this deal, although Tuchel has experienced several rejections from Tottenham but they have not given up, they have sold Sadio mane to be their financial solution. My point is to increase their finances in order to meet the price of Tottenham, and now they have got the money. True, now Bayern Munich have increased the amount of the offer to them for Kane with 120 million, in my opinion Tottenham have no more reason to reject such a high offer, they must be able to get out of the comfort zone. Releasing Harry Kane and then they can buy another striker who has the quality like Kane for under 120 million is possible. With 120 million I think they can get two players at once.

Tottenham seem worried if they play without their spearhead, which has been an inseparable part of the club's performance. I call Tottenham a little cowardly and not ready for new changes, this is precisely where Tottenham opportunity to build a sustainable team is. Kane's age is getting older so over time Tottenham will still lose him, if not now then when are we waiting for the right moment to become a stable team?

The point is that Tottenham were too comfortable and forgot to prepare a proper replacement, so we know their strong reasons for keeping Kane. Whereas in the end Kane was still discarded and would be replaced, now instead of waiting for the time to arrive Harry Kane should go find a place where he can still be made an ideal player.

This question is real and demands substantial thought. Manchester United's fourth-most costly signing is Rasmus Hojlund, right? He's in the same league as Pogba, Antony, and Maguire, who were unsatisfactory. How does it all make sense? Thats the issue.

Hojlund is young. He lacks experience and just played a few games at Atalanta. Thats real. Manchester United risked a lot, right? The risk they took with this young, potential player is a significant question mark.

On one hand, Manchester United seems to be struggling, with players making mistakes and losing points. This additional feature may be worth the risk. Rasmus Hojlund may be another pricey flop or a lasting influence at such a high price. Lets hope, though.
