Just as I expected Manchester City are looking for selling Laporte now as they have managed to complete the signing of Gvardiol finally. There have been only Saudi teams interested lately so I wonder if Laporte wants to join them now. I think he can think of joining in a time that these teams are signing nearly every player they would like.

While there is no offer from any European team why would he reject Saudi teams?

Manchester City can't get much money for his transfer fee though as his current value is 25 million euros. But the player would surely get an incredible contract offer.  Smiley

Manchester United transfer for Amrabat will most likely happen. That's why I can't believe that other teams that have an interest in Amrabat will be successful. He seems eager to join the Manchester United team. The obstacle to this transfer will be the realization of the transfer of Fred and De Beek. I'm sure we'll be watching Amrabat with Red Devils soon.
Amrabat is a good player and he wants to leave Italy. The Premiere League would be a great opportunity for him. But Manchester United has now signed a nice deal, not with Amrabat, but with Rasmus Hojlund. He also left Italy, for Atalanta Bergamo a good deal. Bought 12 months ago for 20 million euros and now sold for 75 million euros and there are even bonuses that could rise to 83 million euros. Rasmus is a great talent and he is going to be one of the best goal scorers in Denmark.

It is such an unbelievable thing that Maguire has been the most expensive player until Gvardiol is being transferred. There is like a huge gap between Maguire and him in terms of strength and defensive skills. Despite Gvardiol's being a very young defender I would favour him against Maguire from the beginning to the end.

Maguire has turned out to be an unworthy transfer for his fee and Manchester United are trying to get rid of him these days. Most probably they will manage to loan him in the worst case scenario. On the other hand I expect Gvardiol to prove his worth nicely for Manchester City and become one of the best defenders of the Premier League.
When Manchester United has decide to bought Maguire from Leicester his status as one of the best defender on Premier League that Maguire performance was very stable at that time and the result is he can bringing Leicester to gets Premier League trophy so that's why Manchester United were dare to buy him at expensive price and broke the record as the most expensive defender at Premier league because they hopes Maguire will be able to displayed fantastic performance just like he showed at Leicester

And actually first season for Maguire was run well that he was being an Ole Gunnar Solskjaer key player but i don't know why now Maguire is playing just like a mediocre player and Manchester United are really wasting their money to buy him and this summer Maguire is one of the most difficult player to sell because not many teams are interested in buying him although Manchester United has attempts to sell him with cheap price but still lack of interest for him

There is an interesting story behind the Maguire story as well. This story summarizes Manchester United on some transfers at the same time.

Back in the day when they were interested in signing Maguire Leicester were hoping to get some good sum of money for him. However they were never expecting Manchester United to offer a huge sum like 87m euros. Leicester officials couldn't believe it was real and they accepted the offer quickly of course. They were so happy with making an enormous profit in this transfer.

Rasmus Hojlund is Manchester United's fourth most expensive signing and yesterday he was introduced to the Old Trafford public when Manchester United played a pre-season match against Lens. Seeing the names above it, such as Pogba, Antony, Maguire, all of them seemed unsatisfactory. On the other hand, will Rasmus Hojlund be able to have a real impact for Manchester United at such a big price? Everything is still a question because so many expensive recruits from Manchester United have ended in floops and not as expected. Hopefully he can complete what Manchester United needs later.
Correct, only Fernandez and Casemiro are worth to sign among other expensive players, Antony and Mount are still questionable.

Hojlund, a wonder kid where many people said he's a baby Haaland, it's so funny to hear that Cheesy

I think Hojlund will ended up like Mudryk where he have played many matches, but he can't score any goal even he already play for full time. Lol I see his current status is lack of fitness, so he will not play in the friendly match against Athletic Club. We might see his first debut in the first Premier league match against Wolves.

Signing and unveiling players and even making them see that they're the highest signed player isn't the thing at the moment. One thing Man UTD need to ask them selves is "can this player do better as expected"? They can sign from anywhere but can the player live up to expectation? Manchester United is not a small team that just go into the season without getting any trophy, as a player signed with such amount much is expected.

With the introduction of Rasmus Hojlund I don't see much from this guy, like he can't do half of what he did while playing for Atalanta. Introducing a player on the day you best goalkeeper was humiliated, this is going to be bad for UTD this season.

Manchester City is now making the most suitable transfers for the region and ending the transfer season. They see the shortcomings of a great team and only recruit players to that region, which is a very clever transfer policy. Manchester City don't want to spoil their already great squad. In my opinion, Gvardiol was the best defender to come to Manchester City, and once he achieves this harmony, Manchester City will be undefeated again.
Manchester City will continue dominate the English premier league as long as they got everything they need. Pep Guardiola is the master planner, he knows basically how to handle things in the club and the quality players he keen on signing from the transfer window. The new defender coming, Josko Gvardiol would prove supremacy in the league only if he adapts smoothly in manchester city pattern of game. It would be difficult for the Croatian at first, but as he becomes a regular starter under Pep Guardiola project, he will match-up the strength and expectations.

there is no need to doubt the players who were successfully recruited by Erik Ten Hag because he definitely has good quality and I see recent history in Euro qualifiers Hojlund managed to score 6 out of 4 matches this is proof that Rasmus Hojlund has good performance to be a player Man United starter so naturally the transfer fee is very expensive because he is still young and has a bright future talent.
although some people doubt the talent he has we will see this season and Rasmus Hojlund will prove it if he can make a good contribution to Man United.

It's a big challenge for Hojlund after making the move to United. Remember he is a first team striker so lot of expectations will be from him. Right now we can't determine if he is good bad as PL is on different level and it's not easy at first for anybody. There are lot of players in Man U so competition will also be high. At times when Hojlund doesn't performs as expected, Ten Haag might start Rashford or Martial so there will be lot of pressure on him right now.

Pep Guardiola understands exactly what he needs to sign, and he is going after the most important thing to him this summer. Comparing Josko Gvardiol to Harry Maguire seems completely inappropriate. Harry Maguire was the most expensive defender in the world, ranking first on the list with €87 million, but everything changed when Manchester City delivered a €90 million bid for RB Leipzig defender Josko Gvardiol. He's one of the toughest defenders a striker would face on the field, therefore I'd encourage him to do an excellent task for the team.

There is no confusion for Harry Kane leaving Tottenham in this transfer window. Because Harry Kane had agreed verbally to join Bayern Munich but was hampered because Levy did not accept the offer submitted by Bayern Munich in the two previous offers.

Thus the final offer submitted by Bayern Munich will be an answer that will determine Harry Kane future because if Levy rejects the offer Harry Kane will remain with Tottenham next season. Apart from that there were no offers from other teams who wanted to recruit Harry kane apart from Bayern munich. Levy could make the decision that is best for both parties in the coming days.
Levy still doesn't want to let Harry Kane go for the price that was previously proposed and Bayern Munich also intend to make a third offer for Harry Kane, so that will be the last offer that comes in for Tottenham and of course this is the last chance for Harry Kane to pursue his dream of playing in the league others who can give a title or for his career. Tottenham has been his home for so long, but so far they haven't won a single title and this reason was enough for Harry Kane to move to Bayern Munich.

If Levy still insists on keeping Harry Kane then next season he will be a free agent and will be a player who can't make money for him. In the third submission there seems to be hope for Bayern Munich to get Harry Kane and I think Harry Kane is more suitable to play for Bayern Munich.

There are rumors in the Turkish press and Corriere della Sera that Mourinho wants Dries Mertens (https://romapress.net/dries-mertens-linked-with-roma-in-serie-a-return-rumors/). He scored a great Puskas goal in Galatasaray's match against Zalgiris (You can watch it here https://youtu.be/WjF_BcYeKBo?t=150, I highly recommend it). Dries Mertens is 36 years old but his football mind is still very young. I don't think the rumors are true but if he transfers to Roma, Galatasaray will definitely be the losers.


What an awful choice of as roma. I thought that if roma needs young striker. Dries martens were too old to be used as a striker. He has different physic compared with the young striker. It's the worst choice from asroma to buy him. I hope it will never happen.
I just aware if the situation in roma was not so good. This club can be called as a poor club.

Jose Mourinho has reportedly contacted once more Spanish striker Alvaro Morata.

The Atletico Madrid attacker remains Mourinho’s first choice to replace Tammy Abraham for the upcoming season.

For the Special One, Morata brings the necessary quality and experience to lead Roma’s front line.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Mourinho called Morata on Thursday and asked him to be patient as Roma will try one more time to approach Atletico Madrid once the sale of Roger Ibanez to Nottingham Forest is realized.

The capital club are currently evaluating Nottingham’s proposal for Ibanez. The sale could provide Roma with enough cash to activate Morata’s release clause.
https://romapress.net/mourinho-asks-morata-to-wait-for-romas-offer/

It has been reported that if jose already contacted morata but i can see that how hard jose tried to convince morata waiting for roma's offer but this club is not even hearing its coach. The club needs to sell ibanez first before it will be able to send a bid for morata.
I wonder how poor this club is?

I say big no for dries mertens. He is too old to be a striker in serie a.

Yes, Manchester United had a lot of problems, especially with Pogba. Besides, mistakes made by Maguire have caused the team to lose a lot of points in the past. I can't say anything about Anthony because I liked his performance last year. I wonder if Hojlund has all the qualities to be a striker to play in the starting 11 of the Manchester United squad? He is very young and has not played enough games even in Atalanta. Manchester United took a big risk in this respect, I hope they don't regret it.

Hopefully this will be the right choice because indeed with an expensive dowry and being one of the high-priced defenders, it is clear that this will be a lot of talk, especially when it fails to adapt like Maguire did.

He is one of the defenders who is quite big and difficult to pass but of course Gvardiol must also be aware that the EPL is a tough competition and fast intensity so hopefully this style of play does not make him overwhelmed and fail to adapt at Manchester City.

It is rumored that currently Gvardiol and Manchester City's contract has been completed with a 5-year long-term contract and that means Gvardiol will be there until 2028.

Amrabat left Fiorentina during the preseason this weekend
He is doing a deal with Manchester United.

I really like this player, he is a complete player.
It is rumoured that Manchester United and Fiorentina have agreed to a 30 million clause for the purchase of Amrabat. But with his arrival, there are indirectly some players who must be allowed to leave.
Amrabat has seen his performance during the last world cup, on the other hand for Fiorentina he is also one of the vital players so this could be a very good addition to Manchester United.

Currently, when Amrabat has agreed, the sacrifice is Van de Beek, who is likely to be released to Sociedad now. On the other hand, there are also the names of Maguire and MacTominay who are still interested in West Ham. I think for Maguire it should be done quickly.


Manchester United are fighting for players like Fred and Van Beek to leave before they can advance for the pursuit of Amrabat.
Amrabat has been positively waiting for the deal to be done. He has rejected every other deal just to work with his former boss in ajax league.  So much potential was unlocked during the world Cup. More will be see when he joins his new team mates.

Maguire feels insulted by the chase from West Ham,  he feel like if they want to get him then  they should improve their bid. So far it is not easy going.  The right fee has got to be merit before he moves.

Manchester United transfer for Amrabat will most likely happen. That's why I can't believe that other teams that have an interest in Amrabat will be successful. He seems eager to join the Manchester United team. The obstacle to this transfer will be the realization of the transfer of Fred and De Beek. I'm sure we'll be watching Amrabat with Red Devils soon.

Im not seeing a better choice other than accepting bayern's final bid for kane. Bayern has been fulfilling what already wanted by totenham and it will be so stupid if totenham doesn't let him go out from the club.


That is our opinion normally but Tottenham must have other reasons why they want to keep Harry Kane for example they have yet to find a suitable player to replace Kane, as we know Harry Kane is their mainstay player, without Harry Kane maybe Tottenham can't compete in the top 10 of the standings. Really a difficult choice for Tottenham, they have to make a decision if they don't want to lose income from the release. I've just seen the latest news that Bayern Munich have made a offer of €120 million for Harry Kane, there should be no way for Tottenham to ignore this offer with 120 million Tottenham can find new players easily and younger.

But Tottenham must remain careful because Harry Kane's contract will end next year, I mean the same thing as Mbappe can happen to Tottenham not get anything, when Harry Kane doesn't want to continue a new contract, Tottenham cannot do anything next year and no club wants to contract him of course they will wait for Kane as a free transfer. For now Tottenham must consider every offer unless they managed to continue the new contract, besides that Tottenham must also consider Kane's age however Kane almost passed his golden age which usually when the player reaches 32-33 years then the performance will decrease dramatically.

Bayern Munich are still waiting on a response from Tottenham after the German champions submitted their 'final offer' for Harry Kane.

Bayern wanted a quick response otherwise they could move onto other targets, and it remains to be seen how they will react if the wait goes on. Bayern's offer for the 30-year-old England captain is worth more than €100m euros (£86.24m) with add-ons included, according to Sky in Germany.
https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/12918018/harry-kane-bayern-munich-waiting-on-response-to-final-bid-for-tottenham-and-england-striker

Bayern has been submitting its final bid and it has been showing how the club is really committing to getting kane at this moment from spurs. I see no better choice for kane than to move to the bayern. he will able to win trophy there rather than stay in the totenham even longer.
I knew he has been a loyal player for the club but he must also think if getting trophy was also one of big achievement by footballer. Bayern is waiting for an answer from spurs. I don't know how slow levy in giving decision for kane.

Kane can leave as free agent next year and totenham shall have decided it asap.

I am not saying that Neymar is the best in the world alone but he is one of the best in the world. You cannot exclude him from the list of world's best. Maybe he doesn't have as much success as Cristiano Ronaldo or Messi in his long career, but he is still one of the best in the world. One can find a thousand reasons to dislike Neymar but we cannot dislike Neymar's football skills. Regardless of what happens in personal life, we usually judge them by their performance on the field. And in terms of field performance, Neymar is definitely one of the best in the world. Until now, no star has been injured as many times as Neymar has been injured and returned. Neymar's lackluster career is due to his injury problems.
Yes, I agree with your point. Neymar is one of the best players in the world. In terms of comprehensive technique, only he can compare with Cristiano Ronaldo or Messi of the same time. He has magic feet. Every time he plays, I think of Ronaldinho.
Brazil has always been famous for its artistic soccer stars who can captivate the world with a single ball, but they are also ready to turn the crowd into enemies with just one ball.  Up to the present time, Brazil no longer produces outstanding stars. Neymar was the last dancer to dance the samba that captivated the world, And many people were jealous. It was a pity for him when his career went downhill when ankle injuries kept finding him.
No one doubts Neymar's quality, but it must be admitted that Neymar's performance has declined in the last few seasons, all of this is inseparable from the injuries he has experienced, but the skills he has are still there and he is still an important player in the team.
now the team's interest in this Brazilian star has diminished because of his declining performance the price is also very expensive so he is currently not the target of other teams.
Neymar is currently still staying with PSG, and I think that if this season he is not disturbed by injuries, it is not impossible that his performance will continue to improve and return to his top performance.
I feel like all the stars at PSG are down. I think if Neymar leaves PSG, goes to famous clubs like Real Madrid, Manchester United or go back to Barcelona. He will regain his glory days in matches. Currently, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have left the European leagues. Only Neymar is enough star class to be expected to replace two monuments Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. No one will be able to compare with him. For example, Haaland and Mbappe have the health of youth. Technically, they have not convinced me and cannot compare with Neymar when he is not injured.
