De Jong is an unlucky player, if he is often injured it will certainly be difficult to get playing minutes even though he has recovered. Because with uncertain conditions, clubs and national teams will hesitate to give more trust on the field. I admit he is one of the best midfielders but his career is fairly monotonous.

Sorry, but Frankie De Jong is shit for me. He clearly a finished player, and the comeback of him won't change the situation a lot. He has done nothing since joining the Camp Nou in 2019. He has missed every season due to injury. I think it's wrong to call him one of the best midfielders. He is not comparable to the best, like Kevin De Bruyne, though, his wages are twice KDB's.

I think Barcelona have two choices of over De jong, Sell or bench him. He offers little to the club and his salary is obviously burdening them. The better Barcelona to get rid of him asap once he's fit.

De Jong spent seasons with more injured than on the field and I think that will happen every season, so Barcelona should have a strong reason to let De Jong go. But unfortunately De Jong is very stubborn and he refuses to be sold to any club (the agreement between Barcelona and Man United failed to happen because of his stubbornness). De Jong is even willing to take a pay cut so he can stay at Barcelona.

source: Florentino Perez moves Real Madrid away from prospect of January signings

Florentino Perez reportedly does not want Ancelotti to bring in new players in the upcoming January transfer market. Ancelotti's desire is contrary to the principle of the club president where Perez wants to prioritize buying players at the end of the season. It seems that if Ancelotti follows this path, he will have difficulty bringing Real Madrid to compete tightly in La Liga and the UCL competition because as we know, the club's condition is currently being hit by a storm of injuries. Do you think this really has to be done by Real Madrid or is this just a rumor that is not yet certain?
I will say that it is just a rumour because I haven't seen a situation where a club president will see that his club are in trouble due to several injuries, and will not do anything to salvage the situation. But everything will be clear when the January transfer window opens and Madrid fail to bring in players to reinforce the squad. Unless Perez is okay with Madrid ending the season trophiless, then he can avoid singing players during the January window. It is very clear that Madrid need to bring in players so that they can be competitive and fight for titles this season. I don't see what's so special about waiting till the summer before buying players. So I strongly believe that this is just one of those rumours around the internet.

What Perez is doing is only aimed at saving their current expenses, in addition, the recruitment of players in the middle of the season often disrupts the stability of the existing team and forces the coach to make adjustments to their squad, but I think Perez should follow what Ancelotti wants because the team's problems of course he knows better than Perez, Perez reason for focusing on transfers at the end of the season may be to get players with higher quality, however, on the other hand, I think he forgot that the injury condition.Madrid currently need a quick solution to keep the team competitive in La Liga and the UCL, if Madrid don't make any purchases in January, then Ancelotti will have to be very creative in utilising existing players, including giving more opportunities to young players or reserves and of course hoping that their injuries do not continue later.

Al Nassr team is mentioned for En Nesry and there are reports that the transfer is only a matter of time.
I hope this transfer becomes real. Because En Nesry could not give the desired performance in F.Bahçe. The transfer fee paid by F.Bahçe shook the club.
If the transfer takes place, Fenerbahçe needs to find a very quality striker as soon as possible, otherwise the championship is not possible this year.

Pogba to United would actually make incredible sense, but not entirely sure when he could technically start playing as well. At the current moment he is still serving his time, plus Juventus deal has to be done, and all of that done before they can register him, so that they can register him.
There is no chance that United is going to sign Paul Pogba, i don't think that's possible, Pogba has had two spells at United and things did not go in his favor, they definitely cannot have him back now, not at this age and with all the current problems he has had. Pogba might have to leave Europe, i am expecting a club in Saudi to give him that opportunity, he will play football regularly and he will also earn a lot of money.

I also believe Paul Pogba is still a player who can be relied on in the game. And the quality will definitely not be much different from before. Maybe he hasn't played live for a long time because of the suspension he received. But he must have remained diligent in practicing all this time. Because I'm sure he won't just give up. And I was happy to hear he was allowed to train at the Man United training facility. And we know that Pogba played for Man United for quite a long time until finally in 2022 he went to Juventus but his luck was not so good which made him even suspected of doping. But now the relief he received also proves that there is no strong evidence that he actually did doping on purpose. And yeah, I hope he trains well and returns to play for any club that wants to accept him. And you have to prove your quality so that better offers will come back from better clubs. He will have a fresh start when his ban from playing ends.

I'm not as confident as you about Pogba honestly.  Tongue  Because his career is full of injuries you know. Especially in his last years, he couldn't even play football properly and this doping ban came later on. Otherwise I don't doubt his talent even a bit. We could have been talking about him in a much more different way now if it weren't for those long times being away from professional football...

When he is back by March (if I'm not mistaken), I will be curious to see for whom he will play. He will really need a solid training to be ready for busy schedules of European teams. I'm saying it by hoping to see him not leaving Europe yet.

Not sure if this has been discussed before, but I have some thoughts and questions.
Is it possible that the rumors will come true? On one hand, PSG can always bring in players with higher quality and Kolo Muani position could be replaced by a new player in January or at the end of the season.
I know that PSG currently needs the contribution of the player. But if PSG has better players, Kolo Muani could be replaced.

It would be better if Pogba lowered his ego a little about salary, because the most important thing now is that he has to make sure which club will intend to bring him in. Actually, this era is no longer his era, modern football carries players who are willing to work hard for the club and set aside their salary, because when playing according to the club wishes the salary can be adjusted. Now Pogba is in an era of young players who are competing to set records for that if he demands a big salary we already know that Saudi Arabian Football can make it happen.
Old players want to demand big salaries, so this will be difficult to achieve by players who should be self-aware, such as Pogba, for example, wanting high salaries, which statistically decreases performance in addition to frequent injuries.
Other European clubs will not have old players like this club will look for easy talent that can be honed and this will result in a large investment in the future.
If you want money you have to go to Saudi Pro.
With Paul Pogba unlikely to stay in Europe, there is naturally talk of the French midfielder heading to Saudi Arabia next season. If an offer comes to him from Saudi Arabia, he may accept the biggest offer, but there is some doubt as to whether the Saudi club will pay him a big sum like other players. If a club cannot play a full season with a player, then that transfer can be a loss for any club. So, since this midfielder has a high chance of getting injured frequently, the amount of money will not be very high, regardless of the offers from any of the Saudi clubs.
Even if they don't make the highest bid, I'm sure they'll make a better offer than an average team in Europe. Also, considering Paul Pogba's bitter experiences during this period, I don't think there will be many teams that will sign him. I think he could go to one of the Saudi teams for a high contract fee and spend a year there. He's already getting to the old age level for football. He could retire in Saudi Arabia after this point.

If he transfers to a league and a team where he can play regularly, he can reach the elite level again.
Pogba must choose a team where he can play regularly. He shouldn't expect to waste his time as a substituted player. Moreover, he still wants to play in France national team, so he needs to move to a team that guarantees him as a regular player. Anyway, I'm also quite confident that Pogba can play again in his best level.

This kind of demand is still too high for Pogba because after all, seeing what happened right now after he served his ban, finding a club with a guarantee that he is a regular player from the start is a pretty big expectation even though he was previously a very good player.

He has not been on the pitch for a long time and has not played official games so surely this will make a condition where re-adaptation is important and it is too much to ask if he asks to be a regular player immediately because after all he needs to prove himself that the ban that has been running does not dull his performance on the field.
Currently Marseille still remains one of the clubs that want to sign this player after Juventus gave a statement where they would not continue cooperation with Pogba but indeed he also still has to continue to wait a few more months before his ban really ends and it is still long enough to find the right club as the next destination for Pogba's career.

Barcelona had too much hope for De Jong, but now what happened, he started acting up and Barcelona is in danger of losing him without getting any money because he doesn't want to extend his contract. His excessive salary will cause social jealousy for other players who contribute more to the club, he also often spends time in the treatment room because he is very prone to injury. In my opinion, Barcelona should look for a club that is ready to accommodate De Jong because his role is no longer very impactful for the team, especially now that Hansi Flick is starting to rely on younger players in the midfield area.
Previous news De Jong did not want to leave as Barcelona had not paid the rest of his high salary, but do not know if this problem has been resolved?

Performance has declined, meaning Barcelona no longer needs it, this high salary is also a burden for the club so the management hopes he leaves as soon as possible but it is difficult to do because De Jong does not want to leave.

He is no longer a priority, his position has been replaced by more effective players.

Paul Pogba is doing everything that a serious player that wants to get back his football career is doing. He need to keep fit therefore if Manchester United allows him to train at the club training ground, he should take full advantage of this opportunity and get back to shape as he can see potential clubs willing to give him another chance. He should lower his standards though and not be looking for a top club for now. Maybe in the summer, he can decide to move to a top club but for now, he first need to get a club that'll give him a platform to show everybody that he's still that player that was playing at the top level before the whole issues he found himself in.

I would say realistic comeback for Pogba could be when new season starts honestly, even if he joins another team, not entirely sure if they will end up with getting a win or not neither, feels like it is not going to be something that can be done, he will probably not going to play during this period. I believe that we are going to see this change coming for next season. He needs to just keep training and keep being in shape, and next season will be his big comeback.

It's actually not entirely true when you say that he hasn't done anything since he joined Barcelona in 2019. He played 42 games in his first season, 51 games in his second season, 47 games in his third season, 43 games in his fourth season, and indeed only 30 games last season as that was the time when the injuries began to kick in.

I don't think I'd say that he is one of the best midfielders, but he can be a very strong midfielder indeed. However, as you mention De Bruyne, he is not on De Bruyne's level of course. But let's be fair here, there is hardly any midfielder who is the same level as De Bruyne. KDB is just one of a kind on his position. De Jong can play good games and he can help the team if he is in top shape, but I know what you are talking at the moment. He isn't really finding his own best version and then on top of that those injuries have increased in quantity and intensity.

The leg vulnerability that de Jong has always had makes the situation unfavorable for himself because after all, looking at what happened he is actually one of the good midfielders and he can be a good mover and mobility for Barcelona.
But his previous training pattern in the Koeman era was wrong, which made his performance less visible and in the Xavi era he was also injured more, which made de Jong look like he was not good because he was rarely in the squad.

He is now still quite useful for Barcelona but it cannot be denied that if Barcelona really wants to try to keep De Jong then it is clear that there must be some adjustments made by Barcelona especially for now he is the most expensive player in terms of salary in La Liga so some changes must be made if he really wants to stay at Barcelona.

Paul Pogba does not have many choices in fact. Until now there is three choices, return to Manchester United indeed if they will accept him, or go abroad, whether in MLS or Saudi Arabia which should be a good choice, or go to France to play with Marseille for example. It appears that Pogba isn't against playing in Ligue 1 and that might fit his actual performance due to the sanction.
Financially, MLS and Saudi Pro League are certainly lucrative options, and Pogba might consider them. However, I am more confident that Pogba will choose to stay in European competition, in order to maintain the hope of getting a call-up to the French National Team in the future. Besides, staying in Europe will improve his image again, although we realize everyone will always remember the punishment he received. Ruben Amorim seems unlikely to recruit Pogba, Marseille have long been linked as one of the teams most interested in signing Pogba.
Pogba won't find it difficult to get a new club for himself. It is just a matter of where he wants to play and the ambition he has set for himself. With the 2026 world cup approaching I'm sure he would prefer to stay in Europe just as you have rightly pointed out. Well I think Marseille isn't a bad place for Pogba to go to and try to redeem his image and prove to people that he is still a the top of his game. Marseille are really playing well this time around as they are competing for the league this time. It will be perfect if Pogba go there and help them win the league. If that is achieved that's automatic ticket for him to get back to the French national team. I won't even advise Pogba to go back to Manchester United. He should seek for new challenge in the french league. After all his return to Juventus was a disaster.
