Gundogan has crucial contribution with Manchester City's achievement of winning treble winner this season from the FA Cup, Premier League to the Champions League title. But Manchester City have tried to defend him extend one until two years contract but Gundogan looks find new challenge and move to La Liga with Barcelona. Actually, Gundogan has an important role for Barcelona in the midfield position to replace the position left by Sergio Busquets who did not renew his contract with Barcelona.

Good reunion between Robert Lewandowski and Gundogan, both them played in Dortmund before Lewandowski joined Barcelona and Gundogan move to Manchester City.

I think so because looking at his age, even though he is still quite competitive, of course he will not be too reliable considering that he is getting older and will have difficulty competing at Manchester City.
On the other hand, by looking at Barcelona's condition, which really needs a position there, it is also a good goal because he will not be preoccupied with a position in the main players because he has no rivals.
On the other hand, he still wants competition like that because if you look at Barcelona's financial condition, it is not the right choice, especially since there have been Arab clubs before who wanted his services at high prices, but in the end the choice was Barcelona.

Man United is also one of the clubs interested in signing Declan Rice and McTominay is a scapegoat to smooth out their plans. But if you're a Premier League fan, McTominay's abilities seem to be about the same as Declan Rice's and not too far from either of them. Although the opportunity to play this season has made Declan Rice considered one of the best players who has developed rapidly with West Ham.

Bartering with him doesn't really benefit Man United and I prefer this scenario to be carried out with Man United captain Maguire. A midfielder is really needed by Man United and I think McTominay is still quite needed because Man United is playing in many competitions next season.

The latest news that I have seen in various internet media sources, Man United has also made a bid of 100 million euros to West Ham for Declan Rice, but so far we have not seen a decision from West Ham. Arsenal are unlikely to dare to bid 100 million euros to bring Declan Rice to the Emirates Stadium and I think they will look for other options if they fail to get it.

Maybe, Gundogan is well aware that in a short time his role will be replaced by a more energetic and younger player. plus, his contract with Manchester City ends this June. at 33, he has maturity in terms of choosing his future. that's why Gundohan prefers to leave City. after all, his departure from Manchester City had made a very good impression. in his last season, he was able with his teammates to win the Treble winner. so, it's not an unreasonable decision if in the end he wants to try to play in other competitions. the reason is, every player has a dream of playing for big clubs even though currently City is the team most feared by their opponents. but in fact, the image that City has did not stop his intention to decide to join Barcelona.


Clearly, Gundohan's presence should have made Barcelona stronger in the midfield. plus, Gundohan's presence with Barcelona can give a strong boost to the team's mentality. even so, Barcelona still needs some new ammunition, especially backup players Lewandowski. if possible, Barca could bring in Benarldo Silva. but even if it does, the consequence is that one of the players who has a high selling value must leave. So, back to Gundohan. he should be able to adapt well to Barcelona with experience and mentality with high flying hours. after all, he was one of the captains. maybe it could be, Gundohan will be the captain at Barcelona.

Youri Tielemans is no longer available, he left relegated Leicester City as a free agent and has signed for Aston Villa now, i don't really think Arsenal were interested in the Belgian, if they were, they would have approached him immediately Leicester City were relegated. Arsenal's top target remains Declan Rice, it is obviously more difficult for them to get their man now that City are in the picture, but it is still possible. Whilst i dont agree with West Ham's valuation of Rice, he is a top player who would improve any team that gets him.

I think they haven't yet made a bid. What happened till now is actually just City communicating with West Ham about status of Rice deal. They will be making their first bid very soon and as for Arsenal it will be third. It will be interesting to see what bids will both clubs make in order to get the player. West Ham is the only one making most out of the situation.

Honestly, Rice is a top player but in transfer market you have to be smart as well. Now that City has joined the race, it seems a bit difficult for Rice to come to Arsenal but even so if we don't get the player then go after another one on the list. There are plenty of defensive midfielders also and one of the names is Tielemans which we were interested in last time.

Declan Rice is Arsenal’s top priority. They have offer the first and second bud but they were rejected because of the add ons. They offered £80m plus the add ons of 15m which will be activated if they win the league or the champions league. But Westham United deemed it to be unrealistic. Now Manchester city did bid the same thing Arsenal offered. Nothing exceeded, Just a better payment structure and feasible add ons by West ham standards. I feel if Arsenal were perennial winners of different trophies of late, they will have accepted trophy milestones for add ons.

Gundogan was a very important Ayer for Manchester City this just concluded season both in the English league and every other competition that they played. The treble win for him with Manchester City is the peak for him at the club and a move for a fresh challenge is good at this stage in his career. In Barcelona, he will be reunited with Lewandowski who rumours claim to have played a role in his move to Barcelona, Lewandoski and Gundogan have a good relationship and have played together before in Dortmund, this new arrival for him in Barcelona improves their midfield and with good interaction on the field between Lewandoski and Gundogan, Lewandoski may have an increased goal record.

I knew he's the coach of Bayern Leverkusen but I didn't know the position on the table they were when he got the job. It's always good to see a legend of the game who did very well as a player also excelling as a manager. His ability to utilize minimal sized budget to strengthen his squad and still replicate success at both domestic and europa league would be of the the reasons most club would one to sign him. I guess many eyes are on him to see how he does in the transfer market. Zinedine Zidane had a great success at Real Madrid, and I just hope the rumours are true and when the time finally comes he would also do well.

In a Newcastle way it looks like they hope Barcelona want to make this a gamble because we know that they are bound to lose Busquets in their midfield and with that in mind they want to do a bit of negotiating and give Bruno Guimaraes who incidentally can fill in for Busquets when he leaves. Apart from that, they also hope for improvement by gradually reducing players and replacing them for the better but now Barcelona has Gundogan ready to fill Busquets' position so Barcelona will not really need Bruno Guimaraes for now and it will definitely be difficult if forced like That.

If they intend to go further for Raphinha I think there should be more emphasis on this matter because indeed Barcelona also don't want them to lose by buying Raphinha and of course with their performance this season, they know that Raphinha still has the potential to be able to bring Barcelona next season.

Gundogan needs  to leave now,  things are really not going well with him and Pep Guadiola when he contract expired he asked for a two years contract, and Pep Guadiola declined and offer him just a year. i think that's the genesis of their problem in the club.

Barcelona gain more by getting him for free. Gundogan is an experienced player and he will really adapt to Barcelona style of play easily because he likes playing dominating game as a Spanish player, under a Spanish coach.

Manchester city don't want to keep any old players with a long contract, they want to invest in the future of the club, beside Gungogan has given them treble, so he is no more needed

There is still a mystery that has yet to be revealed about Gundogan decision to leave Manchester City when the club's condition was at its peak after winning the treble winner. Various parties have started speculating the departure of Gundogan who is almost certain to join Barcelona, some considered It was deemed time for Gundogan to leave Manchester City after seven years of service.

Gundogan presence will further strengthen Barcelona midfield, which was previously filled with quality players such as De Jong, Gavi and Pedri. Xavi began to build his squad little by little even though the club was in a financial crunch, one of Barcelona's advantages was being able to get Gundogan on a free transfer.
Last season's success in winning the La Liga Title and the Spanish Super Cup is the first step to rebuilding Barcelona's glory, especially in the Champions League, Gundogan is expected to play a key role for Barcelona as he did with Manchester City.

Reportedly Manchester United one of the teams interested in bringing in Kolo Muani, previously Man United tried to negotiate with Tottenham to bring Harry Kane but so far there is no agreement and reportedly Tottenham is reluctant release Kane to Manchester United so as an alternative Manchester United divert the target to Kolo Muani. Manchester United are not alone they have competitors to get this player, yeah Bayern Munich apparently also interested in recruiting Kolo Muani. Maybe Kolo Muani will move this season because Frankfurt did not approve of the request for salary increases. Which team is the most potential to get Kolo Muani?

Based on some local news that I have read, especially from Madrid fans it ultimately boils down to the assumption that there was an agreement between the Mbappe family and Florentino Perez. Therefore Madrid will still be Mbappe club next season, and for a while, Joselu can be said to be mostly just a temporary striker until Mbappe and PSG's contracts are completely finished next season.

Apart from all that, in my opinion, Mbappe doesn't want to extend his contract because lately, PSG hasn't made him comfortable. Messi left and several other players began to worry about Neymar Jr, who is also planning to leave soon. The many mistakes that PSG made especially always focused on taking big players in one container. Because like it or not these players have to share the place. It's not surprising that at this time many people choose to leave because elsewhere his position will be the club's main center that doesn't need to share space with each other.

Kolo Muani did a pretty good job with Frankfurt and made many teams attracted to sign him. Newcastle United are one of them but I suppose if they fail or take much time to sign him then another team like Manchester United or Chelsea will jump to get him.

French club puts Mbappe above everyone else, but he has publicly announced that he won't like to renew his contract with the club and next season might be his last. This statement has put Perez in a situation where RM signing Mbappe next season as a free agent. However, in my opinion, there is no guarantee that Mbappe will sign with them next year. On the other hand, the team needs a striker after Karim Benzema leaving and Harry Kane would fit the position perfectly. Perez would like to avoid having both Kane and Mbappe on the same team because of their high wages. Which is understandable.

This is important to note because it feels like only because they are supposed to cost a lot doesn't mean that they are worth the money and play that good. Mbappe is another level the same way as Ronaldo was another level. I was just thinking whether there is still potential for Osimhen to improve from where he is at now, but I am aware of the fact that Osimhen can't become another Ronaldo. As you said, Mbappe is a must and then it would be worth a try to build the team around him, but without making the individuals weaker unless it makes the collective much stronger.

Nothing is impossible in football, especially now that they have the ability financially to make them even more improved from the quality and strength of the team. We can see from their development in the past few years, to be exact after they were officially owned by an Arab prince who we know has a lot of money to do what the team needs.
Newcastle has become one of the clubs that must be highly considered next season, because their movements in the transfer market show their seriousness to create a new history.



Yes, I understand what you mean, because maybe the price offered is not in accordance with what Chelsea wants and I think it's not a matter of appreciating the price but Chelsea seeing what profit they will get from selling Mount. Like I said before, they make plays like they did with Ziyech a while ago, and that's clearly the advantage they want.

This is just a leak, not an official statement as I understand it. In general, it seems to me too early to talk about such an appointment, since for Habi it will be too sharp a rise up and it should be done right away. Now (if this is true) he will be under serious pressure for a whole year, and it will especially increase if the next year with Bayer is not as successful for him as the last one.
