I don't know how many offers Inter Miami made to Lionel Messi so he has decided to go there?
In the article there is no mention of Messi's salary or maybe after the official statement in the next few hours we will know all about what Messi earns.

While in the article Messi will get a share of Apple TV + and Adidas will also share the profits and that's what is written there, is it possible that it will be bigger than Al Hilal's offer?
In the end we will not see two Legends in the Arab League because Messi has decided to go to America.

I don't think bad for Real Madrid spending more than 120 million euro for signing Jude Bellingham from Dortmund because he still on the young age and more profitable business at the future. But not really sure with Real Madrid want spent with the same values for signing Harry Kane from Tottenham Hotspur. Actually is true, Real Madrid need regeneration with many position from midfielder until attacking line actually after leaving by Karim Benzema.

I don't sure with the era Modric and Kroos has ended right now, depend on their performance consistent or not has opportunity with starting line up and Jude Bellingham can't guarantee for easy become main player. Seems Real Madrid window transfer activities have start and waiting who will be the next recruitment after success signing Jude Bellingham who will be the next target?

What is certain is that now Manchester United will have a fork in the road when it comes to recruiting this player because regardless of what you say, the budget will certainly determine in this case and Napoli which allows the release of Kim Min Jae will certainly look at the club with the biggest offer in this regard.
Manchester United need to try to compete hard when it comes to finances but on the other hand they have to try a different approach with Kim Min Jae and Napoli if they really want to sign this player.

OMG, that's fucking big!!!

Real madrid has spend 120 millions only for him and there was also a rumor if real madrid will be also spending another 100 million for kane. I never trust the rumor about kane will be going to the real madrid. Is madrid to become another chelsea?
I can imagine if real madrid will have spent 220 millions only for two players. There are so many positions that need to be regenerated again.

Kross and modric are old now. Madrid needs not only bellingham on its mid even though madrid has some good players in mid.
I will be fucking believe if madrid gonna be another chelsea if madrid will agree to buy kane from totenham with 100million as fee.

Just let him try to decide his future. There's no need to dictate the future of a player. I think that silva gonna consider to leave from city if he will able to win UCL this season with manchester city caused by that has become the main target by manchester city since the previous seasons. In my opinion that if it's really hard to think that if he will able to stay in city after he already achieved by what he wants.

Gundogan will be also leaving from city this summer. I think that some players have been also planning to do the same like him in summer.

It’s now confirmed that Lionel Messi will play in MLS next season. No more chances for Barcelona despite trying to make it happen. Also looking at this Barcelona side, I think Messi not signing for them is the better option. I mean I'm happy as to the progress they have showed, after the challenges of last season (the after-effect of Messi leaving Barcelona and the financial issues).

So resigning Messi will certainly take the team backwards. He might destroy the  rebuild Xavi has begun because they will want to start building the team around him again, building the team on someone who won't stay for long doesn’t  make no sense.
It’s good for both parties, good luck to him.

Messi's interest in returning to Barcelona has been expressed verbally by his father, and that is very important. However, I am just learning that he will move to America to play for Inter Maimi¹. I believe the Barcelona deal didn't work because there are still some obstacles before the deal is confirmed. Like the Barcelona presenting a viability plan. My thoughts on this is that it's clear: the law of supply and demand. If he wants to be paid more, so the American deal fits better. But will this not be the end of his football career now?

There are still footballers who uphold their dignity and maintain their reputation. Reflecting on the past, there was a time when China was actively recruiting European players, which garnered huge attention in the media. However, the current status of those players' careers appeared to be stagnant, as they no longer receive the same level of attention they once did while playing in Europe. Some of them even regret their decision to move to China, as the level of public interest and recognition in that region is comparatively lower than in Europe.
It seems that Saudi Arabia has aspirations of building a football empire similar to that of Europe. However, establishing a football empire requires more than just financial resources. It also necessitates a robust football culture, infrastructure, and the ability to attract top talent and retain public interest, Saudi Arabia may strive to achieve this, time will tell whether they can successfully replicate the football success and fan fervor seen in Europe.

The possibility of Messi moving to Al-Hilal is still uncertain, the latest updates from Romano indicate that there haven't been significant changes in the bid or negotiations. and it seems unlikely that Messi has a strong inclination to join the Saudi Arabian league, as it may give the impression that he is motivated solely by money or a desire to compete with Ronaldo. It would be prudent for him to wait and assess any potential offers or developments from Barcelona before making a decision.

Is not money ruling everything now? Any football players priced very high. Even some were always putting $100m as the floor to get the player. It's all about money right now. The saudi pro league was also become alternative option for all of players that become even older from time to the another time.
That being said that if this time there is a transition from the football. The cost for players become very expensive these days. It's started when PSG was buying messi with very big amounts of money at that time but not for this time.

Mbappe will not be going to saudi even when he has been offered very big contract. In my opinion if mbappe is still willing to continue its career in EU.
I see no reason for mbappe move to the SPL. He may consider it when he will become even older probably more than 30 years old.

Here we go!

After going through many rumors for half a year, Jude Bellingham finally answered that he chose Real Madrid as his new home. An extraordinary transfer fee of around 100 million euros plus add-ons of 30 million euros makes him one of the most expensive young players this season. It seems that Florentino Perez did not hesitate to spend that much for Bellingham from Dortmund and the era of Los Galacticos volume 2 seems to be starting soon since Bellingham's arrival at the Santiago Bernabeu. I think Real Madrid will not sit idly by for all competitions next season and they are also ready to compete with other top European teams.

Nothing can be expected if Kante stays at Chelsea, because yes, as we know, Chelsea is in a slump this season and the development of the team greatly affects the reputation of its players. It looks like Kante will be pursuing another top player who has also decided to play in the Arab League, and so far it has been rumored that Al Nassr and Al Ittihad are in contention for Kante. I don't think there's anything wrong if he really wants to go to Arab, because on the other hand he will get a lot, besides a decent salary maybe by joining Arab Kante will be able to get new things that he couldn't get at Chelsea. I read some rumors that Kante was promised a salary of 100 million euros if he agreed to join an Arab club, I don't think Kante will pass up this opportunity and I'm sure he will consider it.

A very smart move indeed. 24 year old young midfielder who recently won the World Cup with Argentina and have impressed everyone for just 35m Euro. Mac Allister is very much underrated and his release clause at Brighton was reported to be around 45-50m Euro but I am still puzzled on how Liverpool managed to make it only 35m, maybe its 35m Euro + add ons to match the release clause but nothing is clear except for 35m Euro at which deal is set done.


Correct me if I am wrong but since its about release clause of 50m (let's say), I think it's not much of a bidding race between the clubs. I am sure both Newcastle and Manchester United are well capable of matching the release clause of 50m. Club is bound to accept if any club triggers the release clause of 50m. It's the matter of where the player actually chooses to move then. Manchester United has a very good history but Newcastle right now has deep pockets.

I think Newcastle can be a serious competitor for Man United in the hunt for Kim Min-Jae because there are rumours that Newcastle has a big enough budget for next season. This can be a tough transfer because when there are 2 teams that are interested in the same player, it is likely that there will be a bidding war, and it can cause transfer values to be soaring.

In addition, there is also news that Sheikh Jassim made a fifth offer to the Glazers and there are indications that it is a final offer. So if the Glazer still counteracts the offer or remains silent, most likely that Sheikh Jassim will step down in acquiring Man United.

Kante has won premier league trophy with Leicester and he also won champion league title with Chelsea so he almost won everyting at his previous club and i think this is not over yet i mean there will be more european players who possibly to play at Arabian club and who doesn't to tempted by a fantastic salary which they offered and following Kante i think the players who have free agent status such as Sergio Busquets or Sergio Ramos probably will arrived and joining to play at Arabian league

And about Kante actually before this news appears he was give the priority for Chelsea because Kante want to stayed at Chelsea because he loves this team but i don't know why Chelsea were never considers him as their priority and they even more likely to let Kante contract expired without any attempts to give him contract extension and now i think Kante has just made good decision because this offer will not came twice

It is not good for a coach to force a player who wants to leave the club to stay. Leaving to explore new experiences and challenges is a good option to leave a club after achieving the goal you have set for yourself there. Football playing career is not so long, having many experiences in many clubs can make the career very interesting especially when winning trophies in these clubs. If he leaves Manchester City, the coach of the club has to quickly get a player into the position he will leave open in the club because it is a big shoe to fill.

Money is everything in football now and I cant blame these footballers.
We all would do exactly the same thing if we had the chance. They have a chance to to make a shit tone of money doing what they love. What is there to lose? The players know that these clubs make a lot of money off of them.
Mbappe stayed for the money. Who wouldn't?
Messi rejected a move to Saudi Arabia that was worth 1 billion a year to play for Inter Miami. The move shocked everybody because every other player would have opted for Saudi Arabia.

however, there is money. so is the growing popularity of the Saudi League. this was thanks to the arrival of Ronaldo who opened the door for European players to come to Arab countries.
although I'm sure it's not all about money. but there are several reasons for players to choose the club they will occupy.
what is clear is the impact of some players who will move to the Arab Club, maybe this will disrupt the popularity of clubs in European leagues.

I'm surprised why Kante want to join the Saudi Arabian teams!

Even he's currently 32 years old, but he's still capable to compete against high tier teams e.g. Real Madrid, Manchester City, Bayern Munich, and PSG. It's different with Ronaldo where there's no team want him and Benzema which is already old, also his performance isn't stable.

Kante move to Al-Ittihad is surely ruining his career and reputation.

You know, at this point in their development, PSG also needs to consider how they will win the Champions League even if it's not easy, It is not about quick success but rather about improving their game in the eyes of their supporters. If they don't, did you really think they would keep gaining fans while consistently losing games? It is not just about money, and Christopher needs to be replaced because he is not managing the team well.


Even though I'm not a fan of PSG, the way they are playing is very poor, and I think their coach is to blame for that; otherwise, how can PSG be playing that poorly?  However, they need to demonstrate to the current coach that they have the funds to hire a new one; otherwise, I think Christopher will continue to damage PSG's reputation in football because I don't take their play seriously.

Even though I am aware that certain parties have inferior players, they refuse to use that coach as their manager, which is unfortunate given how they handle the ball.
 

The offer of 400m from Al Hilal is very tempting, Messi will become the world's highest paid player if he accepts the offer. Apart from all the issues about where Messi is going next, there has been no official news from Al Hilal or Barcelona regarding their success in recruiting Messi as a new player for next season. Other news also reported that Messi had agreed to return to Barcelona, an agreement had been made between the two parties after Messi representatives held a meeting with Barcelona.

Logically Messi still deserves to play at Barcelona even though he is already 35 years old, but Barcelona must sell several players to make room for Messi so he can be registered in the Barcelona squad for next season's competition. Barcelona have released two important players Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets, then Ansu Fati, Franck Kessie and several other players will be included in the sale list to maintain their financial condition.
If the scenario of returning Messi to Camp Nou materializes, Barcelona will be prone to looking for replacements for busquets, Alba and other players who will be released. The process of rejuvenating the squad will occur due to the financial problems that befell the club, Barcelona will rely on young players from La Masia as reserve players.
