Of course, Lionel Messi can also give the MLS a boost. But the problem is I think we all can agree that Cristiano Ronaldo is more popular compared to Lionel Messi. Just for context, the World Cup final was watched by 1.9 billion people. And the ceremony, which was held in Saudi for Cristiano Ronaldo, as he was joining the Saudi league, was watched by 2.2 billion people. And end players are always going to be attracted towards money a lot more compared to anything else. But there is another concern. What happens if Cristiano Ronaldo retires? Does that kill the hype of the Saudi league? The same thing also goes for MLS. Will both of these leagues be self-sufficient in the future without these two?

Cuadrado ended his 8years with Juventus.

Now as a free agent according to Di Marzio, he has found a deal with Inter.

To be honest, I'm not sure if Bernardo Silva will leave this season. except, if Barcelona is able to recruit him. it's just that, the problem is that Barcelona do not have the strength with their financial problems to bring in the player. other rumors, Bernardo silva is only willing to join Barcelona amid offers from several other clubs. according to the Daily Mirror, the cash-strapped Catalan giants are willing to offer Frankie De Jong for Bernardo Silva.
although to be honest, I highly doubt these rumors. the reason is, it has been claimed that the player does not want to leave Barcelona. if anything, Barcelona offered City a bid for Silva. but in fact, the final decision rests with the player. but if De Jong agrees, then this exchange can be established.

As reported by the same newspaper, a potential swap could occur, with Guardiola still looking for another midfield player after losing IIkay Gundohan to Barcelona. on the other hand, Silva expressed the need for new challenges. he has said he wants to take on a new challenge after six years in England and barça are definitely up for it. The question is whether Pep will agree to this swap as rumored. IMO, I'm not sure, because after all Silva is a key player for City. moreover, there are rumors that Mahrez will leave for a Saudi club. well, if in the end many City players leave. should, be a distinct advantage for Arsenal. because, the strongest competitor for The Gunners is TheCitizen.

If Romelu Lukaku still loves Inter Milan so much, of course he will find a way to leave Chelsea and not instead accept an offer from the Saudi Arabian club at this time. But if Romelu Lukaku prefers to think about money, it is clear he will accept a very lucrative offer from the Saudi Arabian club rather than stay at Inter Milan or Chelsea. Especially now that he is no longer young, so he must be able to make wise decisions for himself before next season starts.

What kind of better players and better team do you mean? Didn't he play with the Champions League finalists of the season 2022/2023? His physical condition can be a problem, but I don't think that the opinions here mean that Lukaku is bad or that he is not in his prime anymore. It is more about the price that Chelsea wants for him and I am not sure as well whether that is too much. He has good moments in a game, but I also thought that he lacks some speed and isn't the fastest in acceleration. Once he is running he can get pretty fast, but it takes him too long.

There are so many criticisms of Romelu Lukaku and I find some of them too harsh. I admit that he hasn't been at a good level physically in recent years, but I still think he has potential. If he gets a little better physically and plays with better players in a better team, he can go back to his old days or get a little closer to his prime. However, whatever happens, I consider the possibility of Lukaku's transfer to Arab teams extremely unlikely. He is only 30 years old, he must stay in Europe and continue to fight for his career.

I think it'll be very difficult for Romelu Lukaku to join another Italian club this season and that's because of how much he loves Inter Milan and his continuous desire to play the Milan club.
Since his services are no longer needed at Chelsea I think it'll be a good decision for Lukaku to go to Saudi Arabia. Age is no longer in the side of the powerful striker who knows how to bully defenders with his strength and tactics. Saudi Arabia clubs will offer him the best financial package he can get from anywhere at the moment

Juventus has a deadline with Lukaku, not after the 4th of August.

Of course they need to sell Vlahovic 1st.

inter miami lost in today's game, they conceded 3 goals and didn't score any goals, inter miami are in the last position of the table with only 18 points. with 22 games, inter miami won only 5 games, had 3 draws and 14 defeats, they are the worst team in the league and I doubt that will change with the entry of messi in the team, messi went to play in that team because with that he no longer there will be more pressure from the press, he will be forgotten in a short time, nobody will want to watch him playing in this league. I already said that, the Arabs are being very smart when they sign many famous players to their league, this attracted many TV channels and newspapers, and it will be a matter of a short time before we see very young talented players moving to the Arabian League

it is clear that with many famous players in the arabia league, native jplayers will be forced to strive to play well for coaches to trust them and put them in the starting 11, this competitiveness is what makes native players improve and have a lot of quality, the reason why the league of the European countries is of high quality and because in each team there are many good foreign players and this forces the native players to make more effort to have a place in the teams

Lukaku should just pick one of these two options and the story should be over. I know how much he wanted Inter but there is nothing to do about it from now on. Because Inter found out about Juventus' effort to sign him also and this made them really angry. This is why they aren't in this race anymore and they won't be.

If he still wants to play football in Europe then he should choose Juventus without stalling them. He is already used to playing in Italy and he loves being there also.

However even if he decides on Juventus there will still be a possibility of not joining them. Because Juventus want this deal only if they part ways with Vlahovic.

They lost a 32 year old Gundogan and got a 29 year old Kovacic who can fit into the Guardiola system as well as Ilker can. I think they are doing good business as it is. They survived without Cancelo for the 2nd half of last season and can do without him for the next one if he chooses to not return.

If Bernado Silva goes Phil Foden can drop into the midfield and get more game time or they can use the money gotten for Silva and get in another midfielder. The best coaches know how to make right signings and how to replace players who want to leave.

I don't understand why PSG is messing around for so long. Mbappe has wanted to leave for a long time and the transfer fee that PSG could get for him would be monstrous, so if I were in their place I wouldn't think twice and send him away. You can then invest the money in a few young players from South America and Africa, for example.

It actually sounds so simple, yet they can't let him go, as if they don't want to .... In general, it is understandable, because he is a world-class player, but here the usual business comes into play: we either sell you or sign a new contract. That is how much they don't want to let him go for free

Several players have left Manchester City one of them being their captain Gundogan and now the hot topic of discussion is Bernardo Silva as you said he has rejected Guariola's offer of a contract extension. Manchester City have managed to achieve several achievements in the last season including the Trebble Winner and this seems to be one of the reasons for several players to leave because maybe they have managed to get it all there. The next season will start soon and all clubs will be sure to show their best performance, especially Arsenal who will not waste various opportunities to win trophies from Manchester City. With the departure of several important players from Manchester City, I am worried that Guardiola will not be able to give his maximum performance in the competition next season. If in the end, Guardiola decides to sell him he will release Bernardo Silva for a fantastic price on the other hand if we look at Barcelona's fragile financial condition it seems that they will find it difficult to fulfill the price clause that will be set by Manchester City regarding Bernardo Silva.

Lukaku must play his best Football, the players in the offense are extremely strong at Chelsea. For example, there are still Raheem Sterling, Mykhaylo Mudryk, Callum Hudson-Odoi, Noni Madueke, Hakim Ziyech, new: Angelo from Brazil SC Santos, Christopher Nkunku, Nicolas Jackson, Armando Broja and even Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, but he is expected to leave the club. So Rmelu Lukajku possibly before his most difficult task in life. I hope that it runs better in the coming season for Chelsea, there are also many new and realy good players.

I don't think that one transfer or two transfers as Inter Miami has now done it is enough to stay competitive especially in the face of what the SPL is doing. Messi is a step in the right direction, but it doesn't make the MLS that much more competitive. The SPL has the money as the biggest catalyst for their ambitions and I think as soon as an MLS club offers 20 million salary, the SPL offers 40 million salary.

Messi was an exception now because he is a global brand and it doesn't hurt him to play in the MLS. I think it is quite the contrary as the US market is huge and he wants to gain access to that market share even more for his future business activities. That is one main reason for his decision. But players like Firmino or others who are not a global brand like Messi, they will take the highest pay cheque in most of the cases.

Having the Blues trying as much as they can to pin Lukaku back into the Chelsea squad is their number 1 concern and it seems the attacker is just finding it hard to make a decision weather to stay or look for a new club, as it is he's still a Chelsea player so to me I prefer he faces his fears and come back to Chelsea. After all the Blues now have a new coach that wants him to come back and be at his best. 17th of this month was given to him to join the rest of the team during the pre-season.
I feel if Lukaku forget about leaving the club and how bad they played back then, I think he can be one of the best attackers in the EPL next season, he's not a bad player is just some issues he had with the club and he'll do well only if he drops every negative impression he has with the club.

His career is now hanging in the balance after the deal between Al Nassr and Chelsea collapsed. There were reports that Al Nassr called off the deal because the Atlas Lion striker is nursing a knee injury. But this news has been disputed by Hakim Ziyech. He even posted his knee on a social media platform to prove that he is healthy. Chelsea has made it clear that he is not part of their plans this season which means he is desperately seeking a new club.

The news of his health status will be scaring clubs away from signing him because no team wants to buy a liability. Hakim had a good time in the world cup in Qatar when he was part of the Moroccan squad that stunned the world. But he has not been able to replicate the same performance in Chelsea. He has played 146 games for Chelsea and scored just 14 goals which is not a commendable statistic for a world-class player.

At this moment, anything is hard to predict about him. He can do anything. My guess is that he is going to go for as much money as he can get. So he will probably go to the Saudi league. But if he wants to stay relevant he should stay in Inter Milan.

I will say that it will also be a great idea for him to go to Juventus. I actually think that he is going to be a traitor for the Inter Milan fans if he does end up going to Juventus. Nothing is certain as long as Lukaku does not decide anything for certain. It will be better to wait for an official statement.

There's proficient finance to circulate round MLS and Saudi Arabia. However with the look of things, Saudi keeps the lead this summer as one of the league that spend gigantic figures and also a favorite league for players who are keen on earning huge sums from football. Leo Messi presence in Inter Miami will boost the team's performance, despite their poor form last season, the still possess strong connection to win their league title. MLS is gradually becoming more popular than last season, everyone talking about the league became an undisputed GOAT presence is felt.
