Pogba isn’t training with inter Miami but just personal in Miami to restore his fitness, he isn’t even allowed to train yet with any team till January 2025 and then allow back to the pitch by March next year, for me he can choose to go any of these clubs but since he himself prioritizes going to the 2026 World Cup then he must go to a team he can make an instant impact to having the manager to pick him for the competition, both the MLS league and Saudi pro league won’t give him that impact to influence his manager but a move to most likely ligue 1 will make him get that. But for now the sacrifice about that still remains that he will have to take a pay cut and that pay cut might be an heavy one.

A good example of this Pogba saga is De gea who had to take a huge pay cut from €22m at Manchester United to €3m which he receives now at Fiorentina, with his recent performance at the club it will most likely be that he will get a contract extension and an improved wage again or most probably get another club offer, so I think Pogba should take same route since he is not that too old

It is true that the arrival if Ruben amorim will likely lead to some players leaving the club, many fans believe the current squad are bad and they had were part of the reason why the former manager was fired.

I don't think Manchester United should just part ways with Joshua Zirkzee. Manchester United should consider sending him on loan to be able to give him time to gain more experience and to develop his skills. Joshua zirkzee is a young and talented footballer who has not really settled down at Manchester United. And I  think a loan move will be good for him as he will seek to improve his game and gain the experience needed.

Are you joking? Pogba would get a mental breakdown if he go there. In fact, UTD fans never welcomed him, they called him as a fraud.

I know he was a gifted player at UTD. But, they treated him badly. His disciplinary problems made it worse, so he left. I believe all of UTD fans will be saying big NO for him to come back there. 

It's no longer news that Xabi Alonso will likely leave the Bundesliga at the end of the season, but no one knows his next destination, as Real Madrid and Manchester city are seriously considering him a top target,it will be really tough for him to choose as both Manchester City and Real Madrid are top clubs.

I also believe he could be an excellent choice as the next manager of Real Madrid, he has connections with the club as a former player and understands the culture of the club. Manchester City do not look like they are ready to part ways with Pep Guardiola anytime soon, this will make it easy for Real Madrid to get Xabi.

Real Madrid are great negotiators. Obviously, we all know the reason why Mbappe doesn't want to extend his contract with PSG, and it looks like that will be the case with Trent Alexander-Arnold as well. When Ancelotti said Madrid would not make any new signings, I had thought that it was just part of his strategy to get TAA for free. Now we just have to wait and see whether Real Madrid will once again get a world-class player for free, or maybe they will sign him this January at a price that might be cheap.

Yeah it really looks inevitable. I also can't believe how Liverpool can't make some money on even one of their transfers.    They are going to lose 3 really valuable players for not even a penny.

If Liverpool manage to become the Premier League champions this season, the expectations will get higher than now next time obviously. Losing such players all at the same time would give them a quite much work to do in next summer transfer window...

Pogba will have to reduce his salary if he wants to remain in Europe and I think he knows that. That was why he showed his willingness to cut his earnings to remain at Juventus if they let him stay. But he might get good pay in Major League Soccer or the Saudi Professional League if he is interested in good pay. But we have now seen his performance currently, so he might get a good deal in Europe. If he comes back with quality and good character, he might become highly sought after in Europe.

Depends on the money if you ask me. He will not be offered 100 like Saudis would offer, but he could be offered like 10-20 million, that much could be made from just jersey sales all around the world, so it is not really expensive for them, plus it is not that he needs to stay healthy for them to win, we already saw Miami finish top of the league, and this was the team at the very bottom before Messi and his teammates joined.

Now, with that transfer, they would be able to actually bring in another star there, and Miami jerseys would be getting a lot more sales, plus we would see more tv income, and we would see a lot more winning, more merchandise, more tickets. Basically these are marketing stuff, so he can sign a deal, and get injured for a year without playing a single game.

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.

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.

Finally Juventus has been terminate Pogba contract and after November 30 Pogba will be counted as free transfer player and actually he want to stayed much longer in Juventus but Thiago Motta has decide will not used him anymore moreover Juventus is quite solid without him i think this is good decision for both parties

It's very interesting to know which clubs would be Pogba destination and several months ago he was linked to Marseille but i don't think this rumour will come true because Pogba want high salary and i highly doubt Marseille can fulfill Pogba's demand

Reported currently Pogba have starting to train again to restore his fitness condition at MLS club Inter Miami and this makes some speculate appears that Pogba will joining with this team moreover Inter Miami has just preparing the squad for next season so probably Inter Miami will gets his signature

Pogba left Manchester United in 2012, before he left UTD he wasn't having a regular playing time, Juventus gave him that opportunity he never had at UTD and after some years (in 2016) Pogba went back to Manchester United, he won some trophies. Later he finally went back to Juventus where he had the drug issues, now that he'll resume playing football because of the drug abuse ban do you think it would be wise of him to go back to Manchester United? What kind of rotation is that? Honestly it would be foolish of him to go back to Manchester United no matter how bad they need a creative midfielder, is better for him to choose a different club in England that's if he's planning on returning to the EPL or go elsewhere.


It was back then when we have Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Robinho, Carlos, Ronaldinho and the rest of them that's when Brazil was Brazil. Now we just have bunch of jokers who think moving their legs on top the ball without touching it and waiting patiently to be touched so they'll cry at the ref to award them a foul. I don't fancy Brazil team any more, Vinicius Jr was the only player I love to watch back then when Benzema was at Madrid, then he was fun to watch but now he complains a lot over unnecessary foul, he doesn't show that skillful ability he had then (not that he doesn't have skills anymore) like some of the Brazilian legends like Ronaldinho, Nazario Ronaldo, Robinho even Neymar (when he was in his prime) etc, like these guys I mentioned get hold of the ball and never wait for the ref to blow the whistle even when they are been fouled they just keep dribbling and heading to the goalpost,those were true Brazilian footballers to me. I never believed a day would come when Brazil will struggle to be of good form and countries like Peru will be look for a way to win and I agree with you that Uruguay is better than Brazil.

I think Neymar should quit football now. I am very clear about this. He has never been able to recover from injuries. He has had a long-term injury in every team he has played for. He lives a life away from football because injuries do not leave him alone. How can such a player be productive for a team? The Saudi Arabia team has not been able to get any benefit from him since they bought him. He got injured with the Brazilian national team and was away from the field for more than a year. Now, just as he was saying he was back, he got injured again. Maybe he should quit football. I don't think he will make any other logical decision, but since he is young, I am sure he will try to make new contracts and earn big money instead of this possibility. Maybe he may not even go anywhere else other than Saudi Arabia. After all, they are paying him a lot of money.

Yes, the coach has a lot to say in the kind of players they are bringing into the club, and if anyone is saying that Eric ten hang isn't given such privilege, that's is actually not true, because I know for a fact that Eric ten hang was the most supported manager at Manchester united since the days of sir Alex Ferguson, if Jose Mourinho, luis van gaal or ole gunnar solskjaer was supported in the transfer market the way Eric ten hang was supported, I believe that one of these three managers might have won the league, but with Eric ten hang, upon all the support he got from the hierarchy of Manchester united, in the transfer market and on disciplining of players, he still wasn't able to bring Manchester united to the top.





Then as for this statement here, this is actually not true, though their where some players that was signed that wasn't his decision, but he still got what he wanted in the type of quality of players he wanted in the team, he  wasn't appreciated at psg, but when he was sacked, they later regretted it because psg hasn't been the same since he left, I believe that it was the strongest squad psg has ever had uptil date.

Club situation, coach strategy and game system can sometimes also affect a player's performance so I think this is not Artem Dovbyk's fault, the problem is in the club itself and maybe Artem is not used to Serie A and he needs a deeper adaptation. Even though in Girona he has only played 1 season and can perform well I think his teammates and the coaching system are more suitable for him while in his first season with Roma he has not shown his previous abilities and I think it is not only Artem who has declined but almost all the players have not been able to perform optimally this season.

Let's go back to home, Paul Pogba.

Manchester United currently lack of midfielders, Pogba can play at any role. Pogba still has skill, he show it when he met with Speed 10 days ago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNOmR0Fq3RM

Brazil isn't a monster national team, they were just known as a country that produce many quality players, but now most of them are mediocre players and some of them should become an actor instead of football player.

Even Uruguay is better than Brazil.

Maybe Claudio Ranieri can still carry out his duties as a coach and give his best contribution. But in my opinion in this case actually the coach does not have any problems but Roma management that makes the team difficult to develop.
Just imagine when Mourinho was not fired and given the freedom to get the players he wanted, surely Roma would still be getting good achievements.
I know that Roma is experiencing a financial crisis, but as an experienced coach surely he will also consider the players to be brought in according to Roma finances.

I'm not sure whoever Roma coach is at the moment if Roma management is still bad, there will be no improvement.

Neymar is not as good as Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo in influencing the media or fan base and I don’t think that is the only option if Miami is really struggling financially. Buying Neymar when he is injured also does not benefit Miami because he cannot contribute and if they want to improve the quality of the league like the Saudi Arabian League does, the club owners there should have much better finances than the Saudi Arabian club owners. But the reality is different and perhaps the league is not as well known as some of the leagues that exist today.

AS Roma management is looking for coach with experience who fits their budget. Claudio Ranieri who had announced his retirement has been asked to join because he already knows club having managed AS Roma before. Short contract and good offer probably convinced him to start coaching again. While fans should not expect amazing things Ranieri has proven record of success including his time at Leicester City. This shows he can still get good results. By returning to AS Roma Ranieri brings stability and experience which matches club financial situation.

Is this slight setback the cause of the assessment of Ancelotti who has indeed had declining performance in leading Real Madrid, I think it is still not quite right because the assessment should be done after completing full season considering how Ancelotti previous performance was always satisfactory.
Regarding the news of Xabi who will leave Leverkusen and join another team, there is lot of talk and it is the main topic in the news, he is linked to Real Madrid and even Manchester City but I still don't really believe all of this until there is an official agreement about who will be the new home for Xabi.
