I don't think there's anyone that's comparing the effectiveness of Kylian Mbappe in a team with that of his compatriot Ousmane Dembele.
However, it is worthy to note that Dembele who we all know doesn't possess the same footballing qualities like Mbappe also have similar attributes to Mbappe when it comes to pace, dribbling and playing with both feet. Dembele might not necessarily be an Mbappe replacement but he'll bring to PSG what they'll miss if Mbappe leaves but that's only if he stays fit without injury

Let's be honest. Mbappé is simply a beast. He has shown us this in the world cup, European stage and local league. One of the biggest qualities of a player is being very fit and not getting regularly injured.

Just look at how many times Ronaldo and Messi got injured in the past. Not so many times! This is why Neymar failed to even get close to the duo. Because he is also injury prone.

Dembele is STILL a great player when he plays, just that he doesn't play that often. When most of your time is spent at the hospital or recovering, the fact that you are a good player doesn't matter. If he played 40+ games a season for 2-3 seasons, then he would have been a 100 million player at least, the only reason why he is worth 50 is the fact that he gets injured a lot. Neymar is the same way so PSG will have a lot of trouble, two wings that are good when they play but injured all the time could cause a lot of trouble. In the end, they still managed to build a decent squad, they got a lot of great players, I only wish they sold Neymar and Mbappe and get two new players instead, we know that will happen, so waiting for it to happen is a bad feeling, rather see it quickly.

Let's be realistic Dembele was a very good prospect before he came to Barcelona and it was his performance that triggered Barcelona to buy him for a huge fee from Borussia Dortmund he had a good passing ability and was very skillful and good at both flanks though he might not be compared to Mbappe when it comes to finishing, and performances for both Club and Country side but let's not deny the fact that he's a talented player, Barcelona is one Club that would always scout talented prospects and go for them and if he wasn't they won't had gone for him.
 If not for the injury spells he's had over the years at Barcelona he  would had been one of the most talked about players in the world because he was a young prospect and looked very promising, if you noticed about 2years ago his release clause was very much higher than 50 million and I think Barcelona had to consider his long injury spell before letting him leave for that amount if not they know his importance and how skillful he's, so what I'm trying to say Is that he might not come close to replacing Mbappe at PSG but if he can recover his form and improve on his fitness he'll make a better player, coming from the flanks for PSG.

But the fitness is part of the equation when a player is evaluated. I think that the total contribution to the team's success should count. He could be the best player in the world for three games and be injured the rest of the season, that doesn't make him a very valuable player. His dribbling and his pace is on the highest level, but he is less efficient than other wing players and he is not 20 years old anymore. At 26 his performances should be stable and it can't be used as an excuse anymore that he is so young and still needs some time to make progress. Given the talent he has and the performances when he was younger, I thought that he could be one of the best in the world one day. But when you take everything into account, he is what you said he is - a good player.

This is a good transfer for PSG. They sold a lot of players and with this transfer they will get fresh legs. With him they are completing their attack. Hopefully Dembele wants to play all games and dosent get injured like he did in Barcelona. Still this big fee will give good money for Barcelona.

Dembele's deal done! to PSG from Barca with the release clause of 50mil.


According to rumors he will earn 20 mil/year after taxes.

I feel like that depends on the money and if the money is good then there is no reason to stay at Europe anymore. That's not just Saudi, that is the most known version, but I see some players go to other clubs as well, like MLS and Qatar being one of the other main destinations and some other leagues. Money became less of an issue because of inflation, so anyone who made 5 million before, could make 5 million now as well and it would not be the same 5 million but still good amount of money.

There are maybe like 10 good leagues, and players could leave for any team outside of that top 10 and go to somewhere that is a lot easier to play and pays a lot more to play there as well. Saudi is the biggest one of those for sure.

Dembele is a good player, but he's injured a lot, which is why he's never really been able to grow at Barca. He has a lot of potential but of course he can't replace Mbappe at Paris. Nevertheless, no one should not underestimate his two strong feet and his dribbling and his pace. If he doesn't get injured he will definitely be able to play well in Ligue 1.

According to some rumors coming to Spain, Luis Enrique is thinking of leaving PSG before the start of the season!

But how can you compare Dembele with Mbappe or consider him a good replacement for a potentially leaving Mbappe? Dembele can nowhere get near the performances that Mbappe does. Don't all the clubs always say how sad they are when a player leaves them? Dembele had a special clause allowing him to leave Barcelona for 50 million and I think if Dembele was as important to Barcelona as some here think, the clause would have been much higher than 50 million. I don't remember Dembele as this crucial player who helped Barcelona win titles. I think the number of important goals he scored is close to zero and to say that after six years at Barcelona, it is not an overall impressive performance.

Real Madrid head of the club has been angry showing a frowning face against the head of the clubs and Real Madrid President with how reluctant they have been with the quest and signature of a central player who will replace benzema.
No matter how different and difficult this market is, Real Madrid will never make chase for Victor Oshime as he is not the type of talent thats needed in the Club.
Napoli would also want to cash big on the player but it feels best to see him remaining a year further with Napoli. There is every chance he'll leave in the following year.

PSG and Luis Enrique were seeking for a good replacement for Mbappe before the season started; perhaps that's why they went for Dembele, because I never anticipated Barcelona to let him leave this season after his outstanding performance and contributions to the team's La Liga victory last season.

Nonetheless, this is a terrific signing for PSG because the player has a lot of experience in other European Leagues, and I am confident he will have a positive impact on the club and help PSG achieve their goals, including winning the UEFA Champions League.

I think it's quite natural that Leipzig apply the highest price for Josko Gvardiol release clause because previously they did not intend to sell Josko Gvardiol, but Manchester City is a team that can convince them to let go of Josko Gvardiol in this transfer window. At such a young age I think he's a priority in the long term and certainly one of the most promising signings Manchester City have made in this transfer window.

For Gvardiol, he has big hopes after being successfully recruited by Manchester City. Therefore he can take this opportunity to show his quality and become the main choice for Pep Guardiola in every game next season.

This is outside the scenario that I think it should be, that the €50 million fee clause expired on the 1st yesterday. Or maybe, the two parties agreed beforehand when Romano said that in 8 hours it would decide this transfer saga. but with the reports reported by Romano, now Dembele has become part of Les Parisiens.
it would be very reasonable, if players who have skill and agility are vulnerable to injury. as we know, not much different from Neymar who might become a partner in the PSG squad later. I mean, if Neymar doesn't leave the Parc del Princes. although Ousmane Dembele was prone to injury, he is now a much more established player. he could be counted on by Enrique, as the winger he had hoped for.

As was rumored a few weeks ago, that Enrique has asked some of the players he wants. two wingers, one pure striker, and an established attacking midfielder. the two player positions that Enrique needed, they have got. now, they will be targeting a midfielder we will see what PSG will do in this summer window. speaking of Mbappe, this saga will be increasingly uncertain. but ideally by bringing in some newcomers, PSG should quickly find a club that fits Mbappe. thus, PSG can avoid the financial fair play rules.

I just realized that we also get distracted from reality in a sense because we also adjust to those new numbers that the Saudis have brought to the sport when it comes to transfers and salaries. Mbappe earns a lot of money no matter what club he chooses to play for. The only question is how ridiculously high the amount will be. The hand money he will receive for his signature from Real Madrid will also be crazy, but not as crazy as the amount he is offered by Al-Hilal, but it will be crazy.

The issue I see with Mbappe is that he is risking to lose a lot of sympathy due to his questionable behavior. To draw a parallel to tennis, he is more the Djokovic kind of guy, but the difference is that Djokovic is winning one important trophy after another while Mbappe is still stuck at PSG. He should use the time that is left to go hard after titles. It would be sad to see him play for some irrelevant club.

There might still be a slight probability for Osimhen to leave maybe. Real Madrid still haven't signed a main striker and they must be looking for someone. Maybe they might be interested in Osimhen but on the other hand his cost is really high. I don't think his salary would be too much considering how much he makes at Napoli.

The problem is his probable asking price. I think it would be no less than 120 million euros which is his current value. Real Madrid will bring Mbappe as well most probably later on. Thinking that I don't know if they would be very keen on spending this much on Osimhen transfer this summer.

I don't remember anyone writing that he used to earn 200 million a year, no one else had such figures, including Ronaldo. Or rather the latter has such a salary, but in Saudi Arabia, after which incidentally there was a "boom" in the field of transfers in relation to the SPL. But in Europe there have never been such salaries, and the majority simply realise that they will not spend such money anywhere, so they prefer to play and develop further in the European leagues

It's true, Mbappé is not such an important player for me, if he plays excellently, he has very good technique, and of course it should be noted that even though he plays so well, he has speed that is really enviable for many, I don't know if he runs faster than Bale when he was in Madrid, but he is a player who explodes and leaves any player on the field, however, here things are that if this player wants to look for a better league, then it would be in "La Liga" with a Real Madrid is not willing to give much money for him either, it is something that the player has not yet entered into his head, and his great ego is that Madrid does not want to give anything for him, much less what was being asked for the transferred.

Now, we can find out that Madrid can accept it, in the very, very strange case that they agree, this player as it is, will start to search and collide with the other members of the team, because that is what he did at PSG, he did it. that aps is that the sheik consented to it and it is very bad, that's why I say that he is somewhat capricious, and the caprochio is, that he wants to go to Madrid and that's it, for him there is no tomorrow in another team, so these things are those that make a player burn out quickly, today I saw news that the transfer of Mbapé was already ready for Madrid, but of course on a social network, sometimes people give very fake news, personally I don't like it´ I would like mbappé to enter the lines of Madrid, I think it would awaken other things in the team that I don't like, besides, Ancelotti doesn't care if he has the Frenchman or not.


Right now PSG is going through a trance where the idea of not counting on the Frenchman is being made, this has made it a great need to absorb new Players so that they can replace his game and they can make football faster, more right, now they only have Neymar and things have not gone very well, in the preseason they have a job that has not given them satisfactory results , I don't know how Luis Enrique is thinking about what he Wants to do, it may be that he has fresh ideas and can take the team forward, personally I don't have much faith in Luis Enrique, I Didn't like the work he did with the Spain team in Qatar, I didn't like the team he put Together.

Luis Enrique can be very radical in terms of his team , so there is a member that he does not like, he makes life impossible until he leaves, that is something that he has and has always had as a 'premise' , he is very Complicated, That's why I think those things About him.

Apparently things are going very well with Dwembelé for PSG , I think it's strange , However if Luis Enrique wants him in the ranks of PSG I think he's fine , he's a very good player, I just hope Barcelona doesn't regret leaving him player, I would not have come out of Dembelé , he is a Player who can do things very well at any time, now he has to show his best Performance at PSG because Luis Enrique if it does not give him Results , Luis does not put it in anymore, besides zero that He is a very good Signing , for me one of the Best.
