The manager had admitted that after his contract expired, he did not want to train anymore, Ancelotti said he was satisfied with his coaching period, coaching Real Madrid was a special achievement in his career. That was the reason why he made his wish to retire after his contract expired. Yes, it is likely that Ancelotti's departure from Real Madrid will be slightly delayed because Real Madrid is still reluctant to part with him and reportedly Florentino Perez is also very satisfied with Ancelotti's performance. There are rumors circulating that Real Madrid are negotiating with Ancelotti to sign his new contract. I think it is very natural that Real Madrid wants to defend him with the various trophies and titles he has presented to Real Madrid. This 62-year-old coach has succeeded in making history as the only coach to win five of Europe's top leagues.

I think since the fans were unhappy about Potter and they wanted their coach to get fired, they had to fire Potter and there couldn't be any coach to replace him quickly because they are near to end of this season and that's why Lampard joined this team as a coach because he is familiar with the team and played there for years, Lampard was a perfect player but he was never a good coach and I'm sure at the end of this season Chelsea will hire another coach for next season.

If I remember correctly, Barcelona has a salary cap and even star players like Lewandowski don't rise above it. There are a couple of exceptions like De Jong who refused to compromise his contract (and rightly so hehe). Therefore, it will be as strange as possible if Messi returns and receives much more than other players, and no less strange if he returns and receives a ridiculous salary.

I don't think his other spells are going to be anywhere near that level of success because he inherited a prime Real Madrid squad that performed outstandingly on its own. Now, most of that squad is no longer with the club, except for maybe 4 or 5 players after you factor in potential outgoing departures of next window. Zidane should just go to PSG and help them win the CL to prove himself.

Ancelloti's track record though says it for himself as he's won a lot of silverware in multiple countries.

Of course, Chelsea fans are disappointed with the poor performance that is being experienced by their pride team and Chelsea has really become a big, slumped team which failed to have any hope of holding the title this season.
Actually Chelsea is a big team and has some great players in it especially Todd Boehly is someone who has many supporting aspects such as financial budget to be able to make Chelsea a strong team.
It's true what you say, Chelsea must have a qualified coach for next season and immediately replace Lampard.
The obstacle that Chelsea is experiencing is only the figure of a coach who can take advantage of players so they can play well and look good again like a few years ago.

Given that, that's what made Real Madrid want to approach Zidane even deeper. We know that Zidane has had extraordinary success with Real Madrid, one of which is by presenting 3 consecutive titles in the Champions League. Zidane is a very qualified coach, not only Real Madrid, Juventus, even the French giants, Paris Saint Germain are also interested in bringing in this coach. Good news that will be warmly welcomed by clubs who want him after Zidane plans to step back into coaching.

messi is very different from ronaldo, first big difference:

1 - messi is 35 years old
2 - ronaldo is 38 years old

which means that messi at 35 years old can still play very well for another 2 seasons at barcelona and if we look closely, barcelona urgently needs a player like messi in their squad, if they put messe + raphinha + lewandowski, this trio could without being very efficient in the attack and barcelona would already have a very good team for the champions league, I read that la liga and barcelona were discussing the possibility of messi returning to barcelona, if we look at messi at PSG, it is clearly noticeable that he has been playing very well as he always did, the problem is in PSG's defective squad, even Mbappe will have a lot of difficulties to become one of the greatest players of all time if he continues at PSG

the case of ronaldo, i always say that, ronaldo destroyed his career because he had a big mouth, he shouldn't have complained to the manager of manchester united and he shouldn't have badmouthed manchester united, all teams in europe were in shock after that news in which he spoke badly of manchester united and it was clear that no team would hire a player who speaks badly of his own team in the press, ronaldo became an unreliable player in europe, that's why he had to go to play in saudi arabia, in a place where he has bad game quality, he is not doing well because his teammates cannot keep up with him, the difference in quality between him and his teammates is very absurd



well, zidane had indisputable success at real madrid, but his long break without being a coach makes me think that the day he returns he can start to have bad results, being a coach also requires constantly working in a team to gain more experience, real madrid I already had good players so it was much easier than training Juventus or PSG, which are two very problematic teams.

There's  a lot of rumor related to him. Barcelona looked for his signature, and another club linked to him.

It's arsenal who was also interesting to sign him from chelsea after arsenal was getting jorginho.

it's very hard to determine his future but im sure that if kante was only using arsenal and barcelona as secondary option once chelsea is not giving him a new contract. it's a big lose for chelsea to see him leaves from the club for free. Kante was a player that has been winning everything with chelsea.
I can't even understand the way of chelsea thinking right now. Chelsea is a terrible club under todd boehly.

If this swapping finally happens, I think Atletico Madrid are gonna make more profits from the deal and that's because of the age and total performance of the two players that are involved.
Yannick Carasco has been in fine form for Atletico this season and has a also been regular for the club in the past few seasons but Ferran Torres has shown great potentials right from his days at Manchester City but has not really fitted in Xavi Hernandez's Barcelona. At Atletico he'll be maximizedly used by Diego Simeone and u think he'll be one of the best attackers in world football in few years to come

Various rumors circulated regarding Zidane's plans to return to coaching. But in my opinion, Zidane is more appropriate to train PSG or Juventus. What if he returns to Madrid? I think if that happened it would greatly affect his reputation. I'm not sure he will repeat the success like some time ago. The condition of Real Madrid at that time and now is very different. At that time the Los Blancos squad was very complete so it was very easy for Zizou to manage the team, moreover he was also Ancelotti's assistant who was later appointed Don Carlo's successor.

I'm not so sure that Zidane is said to be one of the best coaches in the world. It hasn't been fully tested yet. So in my opinion, it is more appropriate for him to join PSG or Juventus to prove his worth.

In fact, Ancelotti's own contract will expire in 2024 and it can be said that his tenure as coach of Real Madrid is left for the next season. However, after the contract ended Ancelotti also still has not determined his future whether he will renew the contract with Real Madrid or leave the Spanish capital team.

It's just that for now Real Madrid will still prioritize Ancelotti as Real Madrid and Zidane will only be the next option. Regarding the rumors about Zidane going to Juventus, it is also quite interesting and in my opinion, the opportunity to handle Juventus next season is still open, maybe we will still see the development of this news first.

Really? I thought that Zidane would be closer to signing for PSG instead. Because he hasn't had much intention to sign for a normal team instead of a national team. He has been eyeing the position at France but I don't know if France have any plans to part ways with Deschamps for now. He still has a contract that lasts until 2026. France haven't been doing very bad so far either.

Real Madrid had really great years with Zidane but I have my doubts about his return to the team again. He has already achieved many titles with the team not only in the La Liga but also the Champions League.

Even if FC Barcelona could sign Lionel Messi for free, which means without having to pay any transfer fee to another club, they will not do it, because obviously the transfer fee is only one part of the total cost when you are signing a player. The other part is the salary obviously and in case of Messi i think it is pretty safe to say, that his salary demands are huge.
Now someone could say that he would probably play for Barca for a very low salary because it is HIS club, but i doubt that. The only reason why Messi left Barca in the first place was that Barca was basically broke because they have paid Messi more than 100 M€ per season. Then they could not pay that anymore and he left the club. He could have stayed at Barca back then too for a lower salary but he did not want to do that.

Carlo Ancelotti was rumored to be the manager of the Brazilian national team but so far there has been no personal agreement between the two parties. On the one hand, he is committed to respect and survive until his contract ends with Real Madrid. I think that with the rumors Zindane's return is the right option for Real Madrid if Ancelotti really wants to become the manager of the Brazil national team and Zidane is a coach with a pretty good reputation at the moment. All speculation about Ancelotti's future will answer at the end this season and possibility or not for Zidane returning as Real Madrid manager need waiting for at the end this season.

If Barcelona can actually get him for free it is going to be a great transfer for them. After all, we know that Barcelona is not going for Lionel Messi. And I also think it is going to be good if they invest money in Kante instead of trying to bring in Lionel Messi right now. Because I believe that Barcelona will have more use for him instead of Lionel Messi right now in the team.

I understand that Barcelona also needs to improve the attacking side. But the thing is Lionel Messi is not the best value for money right now.

These has been discussed when it was posted by someone earlier on, transfer market is full of speculation and people will say whatever they want to say to feel their desperation of some player, as long as there is contract that bind contracts between players and the club, not everything that will be disclose to the public, so people will say anything regarding transfer of players.

Ngalo Kante is a good player, I don't think Chelsea will wait two months prior to his contract expiration before they make him as a free agent, it is not done that way, if really he will be leaving for other clubs, not only Barcelona will be making for his demands, other clubs will be eyeing him too because he is a good player.

A lot of people don't understand why Chelsea fans are behaving like this. Honestly, even if someone does not even watch football at all can also just Google and look at the last 5 matches of Chelsea. They have four losses and one draw. They are below the top 10. It is still not sure if they are actually going to be able to finish in the top 10 or not. It is certainly unlikely that they will. Probably they won't get relegated.

Do not think there is a chance for that to happen. Actually, at this point, it is really hard being a Chelsea Fan. They have nothing to achieve from this season and now it feels like they are also losing their dignity.

I know very well how the Chelsea fans feel, because I have experienced the same thing as them when my proud team was down. But in football this will definitely happen, because it will not be forever that a team will always perform well and present what their fans want. I hope they can find a suitable coach for Chelsea, at least next season they can be better.

I don't know but there is a rumour on Transfermarket also about Kante to sign for Barcelona this summer. I think that it can be really a sign of a possible offer by Barcelona side then. There are only two months left for Kante to be free agent as you know. There is still no serious action to be taken by Chelsea like trying to sign a contract extension. But I think that they will think twice before really doing this.

The reason why I think like this is his having a serious injury not a long time ago. He missed 30 games due to hamstring injury. However he doesn't look like a very injury-prone player in his career either. Because you can see if you check his injury history that his previous serious injury was in the 19/20 season.

But while Chelsea have Enzo Fernandez maybe they could be ready to let Kante leave the team by the end of his contract.

After Zidane said he wanted to return to coaching of course Madrid would try again to approach this sensational coach and it was a pretty good thing to do.
Zidane is one coach who would definitely be welcomed with pleasure if he did return to Madrid.
But on the other hand there is some speculation that Zidane's priority is currently Juventus because he is also very interested in returning to the club when he was young before going to Madrid which makes this also a big question mark as to where he will return because these two clubs are clubs that have been he stopped when he became a professional player.
