At the moment there seems to be a little leeway if you look at the conditions, because it is said that Manchester City can release this player provided that Barcelona can pay around 80 million for the clause. The conditions are a little difficult but if indeed they insist on it then the conditions are a little different it seems but indeed this will obviously be very draining on their financial condition.

Now that Deschamps contract was extended until 2026, Zidane won't just be sitting around and waiting for 3.5 years until he could become the national coach for France. It is plausible to me that he would become a club coach this summer, stay there for 2 or 3 years and then become the national coach.

When you say he wants a team in a perfect condition, which team in your opinion is in a perfect condition? Right now I find it hard to say. I think generally PSG is a club that he would coach if the offer is right and the players stay there and he could perhaps add a couple of new players that he wants. But if Mbappe leaves he might also change his mind again.

Would he go to Chelsea? That is difficult to tell. Guardiola's contract is also running until 2025. I doubt that it is going to be Liverpool as he might not be fully convinced of the quality of the team although that is probably not major issue. Depends on whether they qualify for the Champions League and if they do, Klopp is not going to leave.

There is Real Madrid and I would like to see what happens when Ancelotti wins the Champions League. Will he remain the coach for another year? He said Real Madrid is his last club ever. But if Real Madrid wins it, would Zidane still go there or would he think that he could only do worse the next season?

Have you seen any news about PSG wanting to change their coach? Because I haven't found any news so far.

Zidane is a case apart, it seems that his thought is to only take a team that will be in perfect condition, and if not, he will stay one more season without any club.
And also in my opinion, he is waiting for a chance to be the coach of the French national team.
Outside the French national team, I only see a chance with Real Madrid again, and PSG yes, but they are small chances.

And to finish, I think it would be very interesting to have Zidane as Chelsea's manager, but this probably won't happen.

Çağlar Söyüncü is very close to signing a pre-contract with Atletico Madrid. Çağlar Söyüncü was excluded from the squad as he did not want to renew his contract with Leicester City. However, Leicester City had a very bad time when he was out of the squad. I wish they could have gone through this process in a better way. Because in this case, both Leicester City and Çağlar Söyüncü suffered. In addition, Brendan Rodgers made unpleasant statements about Çağlar Söyüncü during this process. I think Leicester City could have handled this process more professionally.

Salary isn't the only reason for a player to play in a certain team. If Osimhen feels happy to play in Napoli because he can win trophies and gives big contributions, he may prefer to stay. Osimhen has performed amazingly during this season, he may feel comfortable with this team. Unless he no longer feels comfortable playing in Napoli, it may lead him to consider leaving. So far, I never heard of any issue that Osimhen feels unhappy in Napoli. He always plays a starter and he is the main striker there, so nothing to trigger him to leave now. In addition, no guarantee that he can win a trophy if he moves to Man United or Chelsea. He can get a bigger salary but he has a smaller chance to win the league trophy or UCL trophy. So, it is not a good deal for him to move there.

Chelsea having this type of tough situation is not really unexpected to be fair. When the owner wanted to "show whose the boss" and fired Tuchel, that basically made it clear that the aim wasn't to just be a good team, but the aim was to make sure Todd showed everyone he is the owner and he calls the shots and he could fire anyone he pleases to.

This is of course a terrible way to run a club, definitely gets people to be scared of you and you are not going to be made fun of, reputation wise that's fine, but the success won't follow that and it would be terrible. Owners of clubs needs to be a lot more chill and open, otherwise this is the result.

One of the names speculated to fill Galtier's place at PSG might is Gerrard now. This is pretty interesting to hear about and I don't feel like it would happen as well. Because I just think that why would PSG like to bring another inexperienced manager with big teams in case they sack Galtier. It doesn't make sense to me. If they really make up their mind about sacking after the end of the season then I just expect them to go for a more experienced and successful manager.

At that point Zidane's name might be heard more often. As they are the biggest team in France now I think Zidane might really think of signing for them seriously. I can't imagine how much better the team would be then.

The problem is that if he was really worthy, or if it was obvious that he really needed time to improve, even without the top players we would be able to notice some changes in the team's tactics, its play on the field, and so on. But that didn't happen with or without the new players. It's pretty obvious, I think.

Yeah the money will be the issue with him staying at Napoli for a longer period because his performances are outstanding and it is normal that the wealthy clubs will come with huge offers that might change his mind. Napoli will not be able to compete with them by stepping up his wage to a certain level to fend off the competition.

Ronaldinho’s son, his name is Joao Mendes, now plays for FC Barcelona U19. Ronaldinho will this for many years and he has tried again and again. In the last years, Gavi came from the U19/B-Team and is now worth almost 100 million euros. Or Ansu Fati, who is now worth 50 million euros at the age of 20. Nice to see that his son is now playing in Barcelona, i hope in 1-2 years we will see him in the first team.

When indeed his performance has not improved, why force Lukaku because of his current condition Inzaghi will clearly choose Martinez and Dzeko.
Lukaku has to make his condition better if he's to be counted on but with his condition it's definitely a bit difficult and I think at the end of his career if it continues like this it won't go well.

It’s expected Manchester United will be interested in staking their investment on Garnacho who has so far shown good prospects of a better future if he continues at the club. When I try to picture Garnacho and Mason Greenwood playing on both wings, I’m confident the attack of Manchester United are in safe hands. The best news that will be pleasing to Manchester United fans now is the news that his signature has been secured for a long term.

Bernardo Silva is still called with Barcelona for the summer transfer window. His future is still not clear as a result. Actually Manchester City seemed determined about keeping him longer in the team. Because he is a regular in the starting eleven at the moment. As long as they aren't able to fill his place I don't think they would let him go at the end of the season. He is a really skilled and special player by the way so I don't know if they can find a similar replacement to him.

 On the other hand I wonder how much Barcelona will be able to spend in the summer as well. But if they win the La Liga title they would earn a lot of money together with the sponsorships too.

I think Todd Boehly doesn't want to sack Potter yet because he believes people who blame him for getting things completely wrong by sacking Tuchel and hiring Potter even when there was no concrete reason as to why he fired Tuchel, so he just wants to let things be for now and hope that Potter gets it right, because it does not sound right that he just bought Chelsea a couple of months ago (less than a year) and he has already fired and hired two managers.

Having said that, i think sooner or later Todd Boehly would have to sack Potter because i don't think the team can move forward with him, he is the kind of coach that performs well in a small team, but cannot handle the pressure of managing a big club, Chelsea are on the verge of being eliminated from the CL and also missing out on top four, definitely if all of that happens Potter would be shown the door.

I understand If Chelsea's authority thinks that the results will get better in the future. Because sometimes the coaches do take time to bring in good results. But I highly doubt that this coach will actually be able to bring in good results. Because he already has good players on the team. So of course he should be bringing in good results. I am certain that the fans are already quite frustrated. My personal opinion is that if they are sure about something, they should probably give him chance till the end of this season. But if the results are still not coming, he should be sacked.

They won't fire Graham Potter until the end of this season because even if the new coach starts working there he will need some time to sync with the team while Potter at least knows this teams very well during this time, currently, Luis Enrique and Zinedine Zidane are the coaches linked to Chelsea and I think one of these two will be the next coach of Chelsea.

I agree with you that maybe the Chelsea management will keep Graham Potter at least until the end of the season, even if they didn't get what they wanted in their Champions League game against Borussia Dortmund. I think now they will really think about who will coach Chelsea if they sack Graham Potter, because their experience when sacking Thomas Tuchel will be a lesson for them.

whose son is this? you get one guess
right - it is (and this is immediately recognizable) the son of former fc barcelona world star Ronaldinho.
the 18-yo striker signed a contract with the catalans today until 2024. JM will initially play for the u19, but in the near future he will be measured against the performance of his father. hopefully he will be built up at the club in peace and they do not rush with this guy immediately.

Rumors about Jude Bellingham never escape the sports media coverage. even from several sources that I read, not only Madrid insisted on bringing in this young Dortmund midfielder. even the latest rumors, Manchester United still yearn for the figure of Jude Bellingham. Rumors of Manchester United pulling back from their pursuit of Jude Belingham this summer do not seem to be true.

The Red Devils are reportedly still interested in bringing the midfielder to play at Old Tranfford. so, Bellingham will be the target of big clubs in the upcoming transfer market, he is labeled as a young midfielder with a lot of potential. that's why, many top european clubs are competing with each other to try to recruit him. as quoted by Fabrizio Romano, he claims that MU has not completely backed down from hunting for Bellingham. they reportedly still want to try to recruit the player in the summer. if I may argue, the most ideal team for Bellingham is with The Red Devils rather than with Madrid, Liverpool and even City.

I don't think those games will determine Potter's stay at Chelsea because, from what I've seen of the Chelsea management, I believe they will patiently wait and give Potter some time at least until the end of the season to see if he can actually turn things around for Chelsea; I believe Potter will do a very good job at Chelsea, he is just in the bad days of his contract at Chelsea, just like Arteta started at Arsenal, and I am sure if he is given some time, he will do a very good job.
