Osimhen's age is still quite young and indeed his potential is still very open to become more shining, it's just that in this case Osimhen's arrogance sometimes makes some clubs rethink about bringing in this player.

Last season he clashed with several parties such as officials from Napoli and several agents who made the situation a little worse. Although not all are Osimhen's fault but in the end when things like this always happen it will be very difficult for Osimhen to work with coaches who have the power and will for the squad they train because friction will always be there.
Apart from the price in the end Osimhen's arrogance and emotions should be another concern if any club wants his services unless he can lower his arrogance a little because it can be useful for peace in the dressing room especially he must realize that arrogance like this could destroy his career which is in the process phase towards a better direction.

It seems Osimhen should take a leaf out of Baloteli's book as he can be a living example of how arrogance can kill a professional career.

We could all tell that Rodrygo was upset that he wasn’t nominated for the Ballon d’Or. It was very obvious when he posted pictures of the trophies he has won on his socials that he felt cheated by FIFA. Rodrygo’s performance has been top notch and deserves a spot on the list. In my opinion, Declan Rice did not have a better season than Rodrygo. What do you think? Did Rodrygo deserve a place among the nominees?

Actually Victor Osimhen's outburst on Nigeria former head coach Finidi George was uncalled for and honestly speaking, Victor Osimhen degraded himself after that outburst because regardless of the decisions of a coach towards a player it doesn't warrant you to come openly on social media to say those irrelevant words he said that day because i actually watched it, if not that Victor Osimhen is talented and loved by many he would have had a very difficult career after that outburst because most coaches will become scared to sign him and also the previous misunderstanding he had with his club Napoli and he also said a lot of thing during that period and i believe those are some of the problems he faced with the club.

A player ought to be disciplined regardless of your worth and popularity, but I believe Osimhen has learnt his lessons so he will not try such again. He is a very talented player so he should not allow his utterances to tarnish his reputation and football career.

Seeing that the player is not speaking out or saying anything concerning the transfer of his, it’s already showing that he’s not that of player that will be moved by news and reports without facts of people to back them up. The media is a very strong tool that if when used in both ways can have effect on the person it is been used on. The media is a place where one needs to be careful not too expose too much of themselves and be genuine to yourself and not let the public decides for you most of the times. Osimehn is a great player and he’s not yet old that we can say he won’t be able to perform as he used to, it’s just a matter of more vigorous training and the right team players to help him bring out the best in him, but I see nothing wrong with this player that a club will want to reject them not to play for them.

Apart from the salary or wage structure, other factors like the club’s current state in terms of overall performance and stability may have influenced Osimhen’s stubbornness regarding the wages Chelsea were offering. I think it’s fair to demand what you think you’re worth, if he was to move to Chelsea, and not play in the champions league,  the pay should be worth it.

Even the fact that they don't have equal shares of owing Chelsea, is another major problem, well, since the other parties involved said they're not willing to liquidate their shares, the only way forward is for them to come into resolution, else they'll do their themselves harm because if the executives of Chelsea start having problems, it definitely gonna affect their investments on Chelsea football club. This happens to be one of the disadvantages of business collaboration because at some point there may arise a conflict of interest among the major stakeholders of the club.

Now with Jonathan Tah actually at the end of his career with Leverkusen because his contract is running out, it would indeed be quite reasonable even though Bayern have gotten the green light in a private agreement with Jonathan Tah but it looks like they will try to hold this to a free transfer next season.

Leverkusen are still unable to extend the contract of this player even though if we look at the performance shown previously where last season they were quite superior, we can actually see that in the end he is still very useful for Xabi but it is difficult to try to offer a new contract to this player because of his desire to find a new adventure and of course he has been tempted by the offer from Bayern.
If a new contract cannot be agreed then it is possible that Tah could be released in the middle of the season but it could also be an option to wait for a free transfer for Bayern if they are still interested in this player.

It’s too early to start regretting taking over the club because Chelsea is a very big and prestigious club. Chelsea may be struggling to win crucial games and return to glory days but I believe they can get back on track with just a few changes in the club. Selling off his shares now will only mean he is ready to incurr a huge loss because of the current state of the club.

I have earlier anticipated that there is going to be a fall in trust between the shareholders reason been that Todd Boehly calls the shot at the club, I think it is just like how Manchester United hierarchy are. He Todd Boehly has been giving the club’s sporting rights and everything on the sporting aspect is been handled by him. If we look at the way he handles the signing of Chelsea players and who he sidelined the some staffs it will only cause problem between him and the other share holders.

I might be too biased but I don’t also like his way of dealings, he is quite generating revenues for the club but with the signings that Chelsea have done I don’t see them challenging for the league tittle in a closer future and that could be frustrating for the other shareholders. They need to actually come to resolution because he can’t buy them out. The first thing they need to do is higher qualified people to handle the daily affairs so that the shareholders can all go back and not interfere in the day to day running of the club



Jonathan Tah is Bayern Leverkusen most reliable defender last season and he is also one of the leaders in the club so letting him leave will be a huge blow for Bayer Leverkusen and that’s why they took the risk of keeping him even with his contract expiring next season. Tah will leave and probably they will find replacement before then and that’s why they took the risk

It seems that it is not just a matter of money because if Leverkusen really wanted a bigger value, Bayern Munich should be able to afford it, as they get quite a big income from the deal of De Ligt and Mazraoui who went to Man United, and also because Munich has been wanting Tah for a long time.

Tah and Munich have reached a personal agreement, but unfortunately, the event had to fail because Bayer Leverkusen could not find a deal with Munich. I think Bayer Leverkusen still really needs Jonathan Tah because apart from having to defend their title, they also have to play in the Champions League this season.

Latest rumors, Jonathan Tah refuses to extend his contract with Leverkusen, which means he will be a free agent next season, and that is clearly a loss for Leverkusen (they will lose one of their best players for free).

Actually since this news came into light, there have been much discussion on who has made the most terrible decisions between Todd Boehly  and Behdad Eghbali and it seems that Behdad Eghbali as made much of it, base on news on X(Twitter).
Ironic as it seems now I think many of us Chelsea fans will rather opt for Todd Boehly  to take full control from the fact that most bad decisions as been from the other though I still don't know the sources from this information trending on X.
The two will either come to agreement or one will mostly sell their shares and I think this will be Behdad Eghbali since Todd Boehly  has much support not just from fans but also from other big names after he review his plans for the club especially building a new stadium.
As ot seems now Clearlake are offering to buy Todd Boehly shares https://x.com/brfootball/status/1833196610446111101?t=sfyk3mAsM74OQ28ra8nfJw&s=19

A player should respect his manager always but Osimhen has the bad character of being very arrogant. It doesn't matter what your coach says or do to you, you have to be very professional always and if you want to react, address it in a very professional way so your reputations doesn't get damage. Talent isn't everything a player needs, he needs the right behaviour to be shown always because you might not like what is happening but you have an image to protect and no manager will like to bring a disrespectful player to his club as it might make the dressing room to starts being disrespectful to him too when Osimhen gets away with being disrespectful.

I can agree with you here. If you want reliable sources, better visit their official club websites. At least, they won't give you false information. Because when you try to read outside sources, definitely, there are opinions already and it can vary how a person is looking at the situation.

People are judgmental by nature, so they can give you some insights that are not really happening. Someone can always give his thoughts on the matter but check the references or sources. As much as possible, quote the exact words from the people involved. Because translating it can already give a new meaning.

Most of these sport news website make a living by writing stories with little substance and use clickbaits to drag the attention of viewers. Fabrizio Romano has been consistent with his reports. He always gets his facts right before posting, 96% of his tweets are accurate, which is a very commendable character to have in his line of work. Many people trust his reports on the transfer market, the number of Fabrizio Romano twitter status links on this thread is proof of that.

What a really good attacking player has gone through is pure drama, on the one hand the managers and the club in particular have created a huge drama on this player and have damaged him in my opinion. After all, even if a young player has come to Galatasaray on loan, he will perhaps adapt here and continue to achieve new successes in Europe with other players, this is actually my wish and desire.

I think the big clubs will be very upset about missing Osimhen.

Bayern's desire for Tah actually occurred from the beginning but until this summer transfer closed there was no meaningful agreement between Leverkusen and Bayern which made Tah remain at Leverkusen this season although there had previously been rumors for Tah who was rumored to have agreed a personal agreement with Bayern but there was no further news on this matter.

Now he just has to focus on remaining professional at Leverkusen despite the desire to leave but because the current contract is still running then Tah must be more able to maintain an attitude by defending Leverkusen just like before.

But for the Bundesliga there is nothing different actually when there is one player who is considered potential, it will definitely belong to Bayern. and this is like a tradition where situations like this have always happened in recent seasons even though not all deals end well but I believe if Tah is still interested in Bayern then it is likely that the winter transfer will also still be crowded with rumors of Tah and Bayern in the end.

Chelsea has not had peace since it was forcefully taken away from Roman Abramovich in 2022. Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital his partners promised to take Chelsea to the next level after they completed its £4.25bn takeover of the club. Boehly became the interim sporting director which led to a wasteful buying spree that brought no success. It is sad to see that cultural differences have caused deteriorating relationships which is now irreconcilable. The only known solution is for any party to sell off their stake to any partner. Since Todd Boehly has the lesser shares (38.5%), he would have to sell his stake to his partners Behdad Eghbali and José E Feliciano.

The club is still going through a lot of challenges. The coach is trying to cut down players, poor signings and they are not playing well. A leadership problem will make their problems complicated just as it affected Manchester United during the Glazer sell saga.       

Most online media spread news without being supported by valid information, but some of them can be trusted, especially if they quote from a reliable source. Sometimes this is why I tend to like reading news from the club's official website rather than online news from these media. They are only interested in the interests of football fans and exploit hot rumors to increase traffic to their sites full of advertisements.

So as a solution, I like reading news from several sources and usually Fabrizio Romano is a good source to use as a reference. While other sources, just visit the official website of each club instead of reading random news on google search.

If it's from Osimhen himself, I think we can believe it. I also will believe it if the source is the former footballer or a famous person who can be trusted. But if there is no valid source, just ignore the news. If we have too many sources about Osimhen's issues recently, I think the media which have the role spreading the issues. They take the advantage from any news/issues about Osimhen, people are curious about it. However as a football fan, I don't really care with the news/issues, I only want to see Osimhen playing again with his best form. I don't care about the story behind the transfer, but I want he to play again in a top team in Europe in the next season.

Todd Boehly is not alone in acquiring Chelsea from Roman Abramovich. Chelsea majority shares are owned by Clearlake Capital (Behdad Eghbali and Jose E Feliciano), while the remaining 38.5% is owned by Todd Boehly. As The Guardian said, both of them cannot sell Chelsea to a third party, and the biggest possibility is the purchase of each other.

If you look at the investment made by Chelsea at this time, especially in the transfer window, it seems that nothing is happening behind the scenes, Chelsea looks quite ambitious to win trophies. I believe, they will not release their respective shares in the near future, and now reportedly Chelsea top brass are looking for a resolution to avoid a conflict that could have fatal consequences for Chelsea future development.
