Erik ten Hag is planning big changes in Manchester United squad in the summer. There are some players who are expected to leave the team then. There are players like Maguire, McTominay, Telles, van de Beek, Martial and Bailly in this list.

Because Manchester United have plans to sign some big names to strengthen multiple positions in the lineup. Rice and Kane are some of these targets for example. If they complete this renovation successfully then I can't imagine how solid this team can be by next season. Even now they are doing a pretty good job in the league. ten Hag was criticisized in his first time maybe but he has a good chemistry with the team from now on. Strengthening the squad would make them competitive for the league title also.
Maguire, Teles, Vanderbeek and Bailey may go but Mac Tommy shouldn't be released because he adds some power and bully to the midfield especially when  Manchester United is winning and want to defend the winning
Also Martial doesn't need to go if not for his fitness probm. A fit Martial is always good in field of play.
Even though it hasn't even been one season with Man United, it seems that Ten Hag already has a judgment on his team and he's going to weed out anyone who won't be part of his grand plan. Selling players is essential for a football team because it can make a change and of course, it will generate fresh funds to be used to sign new players. Maguire, Telles, van de Beek, Martial, and Bailly have less impressive performances, so it makes sense that Ten Hag put them on the sale list. As for Martial, it seems that Ten Hag doesn't want players who are always struggling with injuries. But for McTominay I agree with you. Despite his lack of consistency, I think he still deserves another chance to improve himself.

Among the blues' defensive starters, Thiago Silva is crucial. The board is eager to extend the Brazilian's contract by another year because he is one of Graham Potter's most important projects. The team needs all the necessary experienced players in the defense, midfield, and attacking line because they are currently having a bad season, It is crucial that he stays. They are awaiting approval from Thiago's agency for the final agreement, which will take effect in June 2024.

Some time ago, it seemed that Thiago Silva himself had said he was ready to sign a contract extension with Chelsea. he is quite important in Chelsea's defense, even though Chelsea's current performance is far from expectations.
Potter still needs him in the squad. Losing reliable players will certainly make it more difficult for Chelsea to finish this season well.
It's true, at this time Chelsea need players who are experienced, especially when the team is in a declining state, because experienced players can help other players to be able to maintain their mentality amid the downturn they are experiencing. But also not all experienced players can have that, because it requires mentality because they are also needed to build the mentality of the team as a whole.

Sunday's transfer gossip:

England defender Harry Maguire, 29, and Scotland midfielder Scott McTominay, 26, will lead an exodus of six big-name players at Manchester United this summer. What is happening at Manchester United?
Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and AC Milan have made enquiries about Gabon striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, 33, following his omission from Chelsea's Champions League squad. There is a huge interest in Aubameyang from several clubs and I really don't understand why Chelsea want to get rid of him.
Arsenal and Tottenham are among the clubs that have shown interest in Barcelona's 20-year-old Spain forward Ansu Fati, but Bayern Munich are most keen. Will Barcelona really let such a young and talented footballer leave the club?
Tottenham could make use of good relations with Atletico Madrid to sign Belgium winger Yannick Carrasco, 29, and 30-year-old Slovenia goalkeeper Jan Oblak. It seems that big changes are coming to Atletico at the end of this season, and the possible departure of the long-time coach. What future awaits them?

Any developments on Harry Maguire and Mc Tominay will have to come in the summer, I don't think Barcelona will be willing to let Ansu Fati go at the stage of his career, they still value him as a huge priced asset and will want to keep him at the club. A move for Aubameyang is most certain after the recent developments in Chelsea where he was removed from the Champions league squad, his form has dropped so badly that he barely makes contributions in games that is why Chelsea are ready to let him go.

I keep wondering what and who is the brain behind chelsea'a move for victor Osimhen. this signing will surely be a waste of resources. Before the next summer, there will be a proper filter of the squad, unuseful players will be figured out and then there will be room for more signings and an important one for that. For now, we have Mudryk, Joao Felix, fofana, Nkunku, make, and Kai Havert, of which three are good central 9. Why are they still making moves for Victor Osimhen when they are not sending the already existing ones away?

Who else if not a line of Chelsea management and of course Todd Boehly as the big boss. Chelsea brought in a lot of new players this January, and I'm sure it's not Potter's will as Chelsea coach. but that's all the wishes of the management and of course the big boss, including wanting to bring in Osimhen in the next summer transfer window.

In fact, rumors are currently Chelsea being linked with two coaches. coach from Germany, Hansi Flick was present at the Celsea headquarters during the match against Fulham. This moment is nothing new considering that Hansi Flick has watched Chelsea matches several times. therefore, Flick's current presence raised suspicions. other rumors, Chelsea are now aiming at the former Barcelona coach to replace Graham Potter. Luis Enrique, rumored to replace Graham Potter in the upcoming season. very interesting, let's just look forward to it.

So they will have to say goodbye to some players.  Osimhen is a very strong player for Napoli and I'm sure every team would like to have such a player right now.  Chelsea is on the agenda with their future transfers and I am sure they will want to buy Osimhen.  They will have to pay a high transfer fee, but in the end it will be a transfer they can be happy with.
Yeah Osimhen always score a goal in this season, it's similar like Haaland, I wouldn't surprised if he will join any English top clubs. It's really risky if he join Chelsea because Chelsea currently have really bad performance and it will ruin his reputation. But if he's successfully become a hard carry for Chelsea, he could become the highest paid player, otherwise he will join other club which can offer high payment rate.
Yes, it will be a decision that will risk his career if Osimhen decides to join Chelsea. I believe there is still a better team for him than Chelsea now. I don't mean to belittle Chelsea because we have to admit that they are one of the big teams in the Premier League. But for now with their appearance as we see it now, it doesn't show that they are one of the big teams in the Premier League.

I don't understand why Kane is still willing to stay at Tottenham if the rumours are true.

Because this might be like his last chance to sign for a bigger team to compete for titles. Otherwise I don't think there would be many teams at his door after a point. He is aging day by day and he is already 29 now. Tottenham are in no condition to win any title now. They just maintain their same form every season. Joining the Champions League shouldn't be enough for a player like Kane. But if he doesn't mind not being able to win any title with his team then it's his choice.
Are you aware that Harry Kane has today become a legend in Tottenham? He is currently the highest goal scorer in Tottenham with 267 goals or thereabout. This is a record that could take upto 50yrs for any other player to break. Don't you consider that as an achievement? Must it be only winning trophies that we will consider to be successful.
Harry should be very careful in this transfer offers so that he will not risk his career at this point.
Not only this achievement, but Harry Kane is also the third player to score 200 goals in the EPL. That is a record that will be difficult for any player in the EPL, which we know is the most competitive league in the world. But the need to win trophies is also necessary for such a great player, but then again he will soon be out of his youth and for sure he will be leaving Spurs.

It is said that Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Milan have asked for Aubameyang's price. I can understand the other two teams but I think Barcelona aren't interested in him anymore. Because I don't see any meaning in that. They were the team sending him away from the team in the previous transfer window. Why would they want him back again? Maybe they might be planning to fill Depay's place with him once again who knows. They were contented with Aubameyang's effort before Lewandowski in the end.

We will see how true these rumours are. Aubameyang is used to playing in the La Liga so Atletico Madrid also would be a good choice. But while Depay is also there I don't know how this would result in. Milan would be another good address for him if he adapts to the environment easily.
With his exit from the Champions League spot in Chelsea things are looking tricky because he has reputation of bad player as well with his stay here in Arsenal look like he doesn't love to stay in London, but things are looking better with most chances he will leave for the Spain where he gives good benefit to his former club Barcelona with coming from Arsenal on free agent base they sell him to Chelsea on good amount, and now they are again trying to offload him in coming transfer window which is having good drama but most chances he will go in Atlético Madrid or AC Milan because Barcelona is already having the good number of strikers, and they are doing good job with this all its never been ideal that he will go back and have better position to play for this team.

If you call Victor Oshime a waste of resources then you know nothing about football, you'll never be a good football scout. When you look at Victor Oshime, you'll see another Didier Drogba, fighter, wrestler, winner, goal machine, with both legs and head he'll make such a great signing for Chelsea.

All of the names above mentioned are no Natural Central Attacker as Victor Oshime, If you talk of Kai Harvertz, he's so dull/lazy to be a number 9. I get irritated seeing him up there, but whats my concern ? (Besides, I'm no Chelsea fan ) He should kindly be taken back to the number 10 role he played at Bayern Leverkusen.

But Victor Oshime to Chelsea is a beautiful move I'll see. I think we've said this like a billion times, Graham Potter's not the man! He's not just the one to build the chemistry amongst these lads. The Premier League is gradually becoming the center of it all once again. Next season will be interesting.

I agree with you that Chelsea decision makers are getting it wrong with some signings but the case of Osimhen I think they need him. All the players you call out aren’t natural center forward rather players that could play the Second Striker role. And if you study the situation well this kind of players are rarely good in air and are not goal poachers. The last few Chelsea matches I watched I feel they need such a striker like Osimhen. The likes of Aubameyang and Zyech are most like to leave while the Felix is just a loan deal even if there is option to buy his performance might determine that. Chelsea shouldn’t be scared to stuck there squad with experience and quality players because that is what every big team is on currently. Manchester City currently has both Alvarez and Haaland, both of which could be starters for any club. Mourinho coached a Chelsea team that had four central forwards (Eto, Torres, Dembaba and Drogba) and he terrorized many teams with them. So I feel Chelsea should go for a Center Forward and an attacking midfielder to complete this squad.

I don't know why PSG are also thinking of signing Osimhen this summer. Because they don't need such transfer actually. They have an amazing trio on the front like Messi, Mbappe and Neymar. Besides they have determined Icardi's transfer fee quite high as well. This makes me think like they would like to keep Icardi in the subs after his loan at Galatasaray ends. If this happens then they won't be in need of another striker.

I thought like maybe they were planning to make some changes in their future strategies. Maybe they want to have a complete forward ahead. In this case they will need to give up on one of their trio. If Messi doesn't extend his contract and leaves then Osimhen would be great to fill his place. In that case Mbappe would play as winger.
In last few days, we have different rumours about this all with most chances Chelsea and Manchester United could be hot favourite for this transfer but now with the entry of PSG things looking interesting because recently we have few talks about Messi can join any Saudi club just because of this PSG looking for this wonder kid which is doing amazing stuff for the time being but right now nothing is clear for better details and more perfect predictions we have to wait until end of this season.

Mbappé is also having some rumours about his future even Real Madrid is now not in chase of him but in soccer we can expect any change of policy or view at the last moment, so this is also another possibility that in case of Mbappé leave they are looking for another wonder kid for their future which is also good.

After his name was dropped from the Chelsea squad that will compete in the Champions League, it is rumored that Aubameyang will soon leave the Stanford Brigade. Aubameyang is finding it increasingly difficult to get a place in the main squad after Chelsea brought in several new strikers and lost the trust of Potter. Aubameyang was in the city of Milan after Potter gave him permission to take a vacation, Aubameyang presence in Milan gave an indication that his move from Chelsea was connected.
Aubameyang has been planning to leave from stamford bridge very soon when the transfer season will come back again. This time he can only stay in the club. He was feeling so bad with potter removed him from the UCL. Potter has no brain.
He keeps using a useless player that didn't give any contribution to the club. The problem was not on the players but it must be on the coach. It doesn't make sense to remove someone who has been contributing a lot to the club.
Potter was stupid coach for sure.
It is an interesting decision and should usually be a sign of strength if a club is able to just leave Aubameyang at home entirely for a match in the Champions League even when he is healthy.
I think Aubameyang is still a player who can contribute to the team in certain situations during the game and in top shape he might even be someone for the starting squad, but if I followed Chelsea correctly, he didn't really have a chance to show his best very often. This might be another career that is going down the drain very soon. Auba will turn 34 this summer. That might either be his very last chance to leave the club for another decent club, not world class club. Or maybe we will soon see him in Saudi Arabia or the USA. I can imagine he is that kind of guy who is going to cash in big one more time no matter where.
Aubameyang is still having potential. We can't deny the fact that if he was old enough but he was giving a huge contribution to the Chelsea during his perform since the group stage. That's why the decision taken by potter was an inappropriate decision to remove him from the main squad for UCL.
That's why he thinks move to another club shall become a better decision rather than staying even longer in the club. that's what im thinking about that now. Potter was thinking he was the smartest coach he has no achievements.

I don't agree that Aubameyang's performance with Chelsea was good. Aubameyang was brought in by Chelsea management as a scorer. But Aubameyang has scored just one goal in 11 Premier League games. And could not assist. Would you call that a good performance? Don't forget he is an experienced striker. The team expects a lot from him. But he failed to live up to expectations. So naturally the Chelsea coach is not interested in keeping Aubameyang in the team.

From what Chelsea is doing they seem to want to build a squad with new player material to be more competitive in the following season but unfortunately, they don't seem to have a solid strategy, they only see how the players they have bought or are still in negotiations with appear on the pitch. their respective clubs, so spending huge amounts of money is not a problem for them because the consideration is to continue to pursue players who are performing well at the moment to contribute to Chelsea's next target.
rebuilding the team was the initial plan, I don't know if it still is, but. Paying attention to players' current ability is a very wrong approach to achieving what they want. As long as they are coming to play in a different league, Some of those players may end up becoming a flop or may end up underperforming, and with that, there will still be a need to buy new players in the next transfer summer, and the money they plan on spending on getting more players will serve them if preserved.

Because it appears like Chelsea has no plans to trade any of their current forwards, the issue of why they would want to add another forward to their roster is a reasonable one. But there might be a few explanations for this action, and I think that has to be taken into account.

It's impossible to predict what will happen in the world of football, for one thing. A solid team with depth in all positions is essential for success since injuries and other setbacks can occur at any time. Therefore, having a forward like Victor Osimhen as a backup plan might prove to be a wise investment for Chelsea. Second, healthy competition for roster spots is an asset to any group. It motivates people to give their best and brings out the best in them. Looking forward to seeing how this plays out.
