So far Real Madrid has spent €108 million to bring in 2 players Fran Garcia and Jude Bellingham, Madrid hasn't got a replacement for Karim Benzema which means that actually Madrid still needs additional players but they are still waiting for certainty related to Mbappe at least until the end of the transfer window, whereas Osimhen may be the last option and Mbappe is still the main target. To be honest, I'm not sure Real Madrid will go through a new season without new striker maybe it will be their worst season so we have to wait at the last second.
So, what's purpose of real madrid to take joselu from espanyol if people are still doubting about him to replace benzema? I meant ancelotti sees potential on him and he has been also placed at the top scorer board even though he was still under lewandowski and benzema but he is performing so well even with mediocre team. Osimhen is getting in touch with chelsea at this moment. Im feeling doubt if ancelotti is willing to spend a lot of money to buy the new striker.

On the other hand, now Mount seems to really belong to Manchester United now with a price of 55 million + 5 million bonuses and it is rumoured that in the near future he will undergo a medical test.
The medical test was carried out on Monday and indeed this is already the last step for Mount to wear the Manchester United uniform.
Mount's long-term contract and option for a season extension will allow him to stay until 2029.
The midfield for Manchester United has been filled now for the attack line which is also in the process of being rumored but in this case I will not be too satisfied if they forget about the defense which actually if you look at this season the defense has a lot of gaps.
Fabrizio said that currently Bayern and Kim have reached a verbal agreement and this means it is difficult for Manchester United to get Kim. IMO, they have to look from now on I think because seeing from the condition of the defense that is less balanced this can cause anxiety for the fans.
I personally believe that Manchester United should also concentrate on the defence as you said. They actually have problems in both attack and defense, to be honest. But attack is a bigger problem. In the last season, they were not able to actually score enough goals. The defense was not one of the best as well. But I believe as they have made the midfield a great one they should actually improve the attack first. Without a good attacking line, they are not going to be able to score enough goals. They should remember if they concede one they have to score two.
Snip.
Fran Garcia is a young football player who can be in the main squad and I think he deserves the money given to him. It has to be said that Bellingham deserves his money too, but yes, Real Madrid needs a striker. especially after Benzema.
Real Madrid are still not satisfied with the players that have been successfully brought in, the club is still looking for a reliable striker after the departure of the French legend to the Arab League. Several names have been linked with Real Madrid, Mbappe, Kane and Osimhen, of the several names linked, none of them have been successfully brought in.
I see today there was news that Al-Hilal is ready to offer Neymar a contract for 3 years, in the amount of 600 million euros. If we take into account the fact that the bosses of PSG have long wanted to sell Neymar and the dissatisfaction of the fans with his game, then Neymar may well be interested in changing the club. Although if Enrique becomes the coach, then Neymar would like to stay, because they had a good working relationship. But there is a possibility that PSG could lose all of their top strikers if Mbappe and Neymar decide to leave the club and agree transfers with new clubs.
To me I feel he should leave the team and besides they (UTD) don't have much to spend, since they have spent half of the money on getting Mount and this window might be another worst transfer window for them.
This is not the first time this has happened between David de Gea and Manchester United management regarding the status of extended or not 32 year-old goalkeeper from Spain.Manchester United under the possession of Glazer is too often experiencing internal problems. We can discuss further about this.
What we know from outside is that the player transfer business, Erik Ten Hag has his own way since he was willing to become a Red Devils coach.
The inaugural season handling Bruno Fernandes and his friends, the transfer of players is classified as far away from other clubs.
Until now, when other clubs have gotten the target of their target players, Manchester United are still struggling with rumors related to players who will be imported to Old Trafford.
Most consider that the bright spot might be seen if Manchester United change ownership, both the problem of David de Gea and other problems.
If chelsea can succeed to sign him it will be a great deal for the club, their attack will be more stronger and they will comfortably challenge for the premier league title.
That is if he does not get injured. If I am Victor Osimhen, I will be very selective of the club I play for and will not just want to move to any club because it is an English team. He is already very welcomed in Napoli and has no complain about the team, the coach, the management of the club and the supporters of the team in Napoli, so he may not be too keen on leaving to just any club that he knows will be difficult for him to win trophies in. He has won one very good trophy winning the Italian league, it is normal for him to feel the urge to want to win more and will want a club that he can win in. In terms of the competitions that Osimhen will have an opportunity to win next season, Napoli will play in more competitions than Chelsea will, so staying in Napoli is also a good choice.
"Chelsea are planning to hold talks with Napoli over Victor Osimhen.
According to Football.London, the Londoners are thinking of offering at least 100 million pounds for the forward"
https://www.football.london/chelsea-fc/transfer-news/victor-osimhen-chelsea-transfer-contract-26833032
This is very interesting news. Chelsea continues to excite the transfer market like last season.
But this time the transfers seem to be more thoughtful. Victor Osimhen is a great player and although £100 million is a huge amount, but Victor Osimhen at least can work them off, in contrast to, for example, Mudrik. Victor Osimhen is in the prime of his career, a great striker, unstoppable for defenders, with a great eye for goal.

Victor Osimhen is in the prime of his career, a great striker, unstoppable for defenders, with a great eye for goal.
Mihaylo Mudrik made good impressions in Ukraine, but failed to show the same effect in the Premier league. Of course, he deserves another chance, but Chelsea should choose players like Osimhen who can be the leader of the team during the transfer period. There are enough young players in the team. They should now focus on star players with leadership qualities who can take direct responsibility. Osimhen is one of them. Also, Neymar could be one of them. So, I consider Chelsea's effort to transfer Victor Osimhen as the right move.
There is no reason for Victor Osimhen to actually go to Chelsea. It will be better for him to stay where he is instead of going to Chelsea. Because I’m going to Chelsea at this moment, certainly does not ensure a good future. If it is actually a big amount and actually more compared to the other clubs, I know that the player is not going to actually accept any offer from Chelsea. Real Madrid is actively looking for a striker. I think he should be a good option for Real Madrid. Don’t know if Real Madrid has actually approached him or not. But he will certainly be better compared to Harry Kane.
I know that UEFA cannot sanction any club in the Arab because it's not in their jurisdiction. But I believe the level of conspiracy in football. If they cannot directly control, they can indirectly influence. If they cannot indirectly influence, they can also regulate the clubs in Europe on how to sell to Arab.
It is correct as you said that this wave of buying expensive players will not sail for long. If you keep investing without an equivalent return of investment, that type of investment is not always sustainable. They Arab club owners will soon get tired, maybe their next move will be to buy clubs in Europe.
FIFA now feels threatened by Saudi Arabia finances, because Saudi Arabia is better able to attract big players. Of course this makes sense because FIFA invests more in European clubs, while from a player's point of view, it still prioritizes finances where if someone values more than what European clubs have to offer then that is their choice. Don't blame the Saudi Arabia Club because this is where European Clubs are challenged to compete with the world of finance. There is no need to talk about the phase of defending European clubs, after all, currently big clubs have entered Saudi Arabia's finances, which cannot be matched by European businessmen who invest in football. Manchester City, Newcastle and PSG are the biggest right now, and look how fast they are growing? It is correct as you said that this wave of buying expensive players will not sail for long. If you keep investing without an equivalent return of investment, that type of investment is not always sustainable. They Arab club owners will soon get tired, maybe their next move will be to buy clubs in Europe.

What? Osimhen's market value is 122 Million Euros, Chelsea bid less than what's the real value of Osimhen and Chelsea is nothing compared to other big clubs. Even Chelsea bid higher rate like 150 Million Pounds, I believe Osimhen would choose to move to Real Madrid as long as Real Madrid could pay what Napoli's want or less than Chelsea's offer.According to Football.London, the Londoners are thinking of offering at least 100 million pounds for the forward"
https://www.football.london/chelsea-fc/transfer-news/victor-osimhen-chelsea-transfer-contract-26833032
I'd say Osimhen would high likely to replace Benzema rather than Harry Kane because Tottenham's management not willing to let kane to leave.

But he will certainly be better compared to Harry Kane.
Victor Osimhen joining Chelsea will be one of the best transfer Chelsea would have done to boost their squad ahead of next season. 100 million might be a very high amount but with the nature of the player, his market value, expertise in scoring as top striker makes the price a considerable one for any team to bid him for. Victor Osimhen loves Chelsea club from childhood with his role model being former Chelsea legend, Didier Drogba. This deal will be very interesting to watch out for because if he joins Chelsea he won’t be able to play in the champions league next season.
That’s the problem with every world class player linked with chelsea, they try to avoid chelsea now because they won’t be playing in the champions league next season. Player like Osimhen will no want to miss out on the chance of playing in the champions league because it will be bad for his standards, it will affect his rating and value because champions league is the league for the big boys. If chelsea can succeed to sign him it will be a great deal for the club, their attack will be more stronger and they will comfortably challenge for the premier league title. 
I am having a great feeling that after this transfer season, UEFA will find a way to regulate Saudi Arabia pro league even if it's not in their jurisdiction. How sure are we that FIFA financial rule applies to SPL?
If nothing is done about this trend, any player older than 30 may be leaving the European clubs to retire in Arab. Who knows if the government is sponsoring these clubs?
How can an organization that is not authorized to regulate but can be made regulations in that league? isn't that like the president of a country A is trying to rule country B.If nothing is done about this trend, any player older than 30 may be leaving the European clubs to retire in Arab. Who knows if the government is sponsoring these clubs?
FIFA can do this by ordering the AFC, or also the Saudi Pro League, which will arrange so that their league is not only filled with foreign players and reduces the value of local players, but believe me what the Arab clubs are doing is only temporary and even though they have so much money that it would be detrimental if expenses were made without adequate income.
These Arab clubs are owned by rich people who, although they are not sponsored by the government, money is not a problem for them, and the circles of these rich people are not far from the government, so their target is to win the election to host the 2030 world cup.
It is correct as you said that this wave of buying expensive players will not sail for long.

100 million pounds (~116 million euros) would be a really serious level to start for Chelsea. However even Osimhen's market value is 120 million euros according to Transfermarkt. Besides the sum Napoli are expecting should be at least between 130 and 140 million euros. I don't expect Napoli to lower their expectation.
Chelsea are very rich now and they can surely improve their offer. But this first offer can at least help them see what exactly Napoli chairman asks for Osimhen. By the way paying this high sum of money for Osimhen will bring about some risks as well.
You all know how Lukaku deal turned into a disaster for Chelsea after signing him back from Inter for 113 million euros.
So far Real Madrid has spent €108 million to bring in 2 players Fran Garcia and Jude Bellingham, Madrid hasn't got a replacement for Karim Benzema which means that actually Madrid still needs additional players but they are still waiting for certainty related to Mbappe at least until the end of the transfer window, whereas Osimhen may be the last option and Mbappe is still the main target.

Osimhen is getting in touch with chelsea at this moment. Im feeling doubt if ancelotti is willing to spend a lot of money to buy the new striker. I hear that madrid is trying to approach vlahovic to join in the club as loan from juventus. That being said that if this time it's gonna a big bet for real madrid.
As club is interesting to take vlahovic as loan while at the same time juventus only let vlahovic leave as permanent transfer.
Real Madrid themselves don't appear to want to splash out as much money in the transfer window right now, and that was also reinforced after Perez said that they probably won't be signing any more players.
Osimhen has a high market value, and even the latest news that I and Napoli want 180 million to let go of this player. The bids they have received so far have only touched 100 million, and that is still far from the market value.
Napoli themselves don't want to miss the opportunity that comes to them by setting a high price if a team wants to bring in this young player. It looks like the drama from Osimhen will continue.

If you look at the statement that Perez said about those who would not bring back players, indirectly Benzema's role this season will be given to Joselu or Brahim who they brought in before but indeed I still feel that this is one of the tactics for Perez to avoid further news of the transfer because Madrid has always been closed in fact.
Currently, news about several big strikers like Osimhen or Mbappe is still always heard and this clearly indicates that anything is possible as long as player transfers are not closed.

Declan Rice deal is soon going to be officially completed by Arsenal. This must be the biggest transfer Arsenal have made in the recent times. Because if I'm not mistaken the transfer fee for him exceeds 100 million euros. Manchester City didn't want to involve this race anymore after Arsenal's increasing their offer to this level.
Declan Rice is a very talented defensive midfielder and he should become a strong bridge between Arsenal defense and midfield. In addition to that he is a player who can make a decent contribution with goals or assists from time to time as well. I hope this deal will be worth for Arsenal in the long term.
Maybe the only thing that makes this player overrated is the unreasonable fee, but if he were an English player, of course the fee would be very reasonable. Now Arsenal have broken the record for the club's most expensive signing and if Declan Rice's quality isn't worth the price tag fans will be sorely disappointed.
A new record by arsenal for now. I can'ty deny that but it's possible if arsenal will be making another record if the team's interest to buy mbappe gonna be true.
I have heard that from so much news if arsenal has been willing compete with another club to get mbappe from PSG.
I don't really think that Arsenal will be able to sign Mbappe from PSG, because we know it will cost a lot to sign him, and on the other hand PSG will also take advantage of this opportunity to get a lot of profit. But if a deal between Arsenal and Mbappe does happen then it could mark a sensational move for Arteta's side. But on the other hand I hope they know they will be second choice after Real Madrid and have to hope the La Liga side will fail in their bid to sign Mbappe. Real Madrid will be at the forefront of Mbappe's hunt and indeed various media crews report that Real Madrid is the first club Mbappe will choose after leaving PSG, but it would not hurt for Arsenal to try first.I have heard that from so much news if arsenal has been willing compete with another club to get mbappe from PSG.
Manchester United are still messing around with one of the best goalkeeper in the world, I'm talking about David de Gea. With UTD thinking of getting Onana from Inter Milan, I feel is not going to work out as it stands. While the dedicated goalkeeper of UTD has given the Manchester United board a big yes that he wants to stay but it seems they're taking him for granted, first they didn't accept his proposal as to agree to his terms and now they're making him look like he has no other choice, yes David de Gea made the UTD board to see that his committed to the club that's why they don't want to give him what he wants, if I were to be the keeper I'd increase my salary to even make them seek for my service not the other way round. To me I feel he should leave the team and besides they (UTD) don't have much to spend, since they have spent half of the money on getting Mount and this window might be another worst transfer window for them.
Are things getting out of hands with the way the Saudi side are recruiting players from all parts of Europe, I feel with time we won't be getting enough super stars in the UCL, UEL even the conference league and to top it all, in all domestic leagues. Last time this kind of thing happened was China league now we're seeing Saudi league trying to improve their league by getting the likes of Ronaldo and some other footballers, you name them.
Won't be surprised if Fabrizio announce that Mbappe has decided to join on of the clubs @ Saudi and negotiations are on going. This is the busiest transfer window so far, players are coming and going out.
You are absolutely right, the Saudi league now feels like a retirement option for veterans of the game, in the space of one year we have witnessed many top names in Europe moving to the Saudi league. I also fear that soon we will be losing many top stars who use to make european competitions interesting and competitive but it’s one thing to start something and another is to maintain it. Can the Saudi clubs hold on to this level of influence they have now? Or will they lose it and end up as China did.Won't be surprised if Fabrizio announce that Mbappe has decided to join on of the clubs @ Saudi and negotiations are on going. This is the busiest transfer window so far, players are coming and going out.
The movement of the Arab League has recently become very aggressive by targeting many stars, and this has resulted in the top leagues in Europe losing many players with big names.
We can see that since the beginning of Ronaldo's arrival, many have wanted broadcast rights, and especially now when more players have followed in Ronaldo's footsteps.
