Milan are trying their best to extend Leao's contract now. There have been some speculations like they are having difficulties in doing this but let's see.

It won't be easy for Milan to convince him to extend already now. Because Milan are having a really bad season comparing to the previous one. Their defending is horrible and they have started to lose many points. This can push them out of top four at the end of the season. This means that Leao might be eager to leave to play in the Champions League. Even if Milan qualify for it Leao might still make up his mind to leave for a bigger team. Maybe he is already waiting for an official offer from such team.
like the rumors circulating it looks like Leao will accept a new contract offer from Ac milan, but the situation could change if ac milan continues to worsen their performance in serie A and fails to qualify for the champions league next season, of course this will make it difficult for ac milan to seduce leao  agree to a new contract.

Ac milan in the winter transfer window did not move to buy new players, ac milan only brought in Devis Vasguez in this transfer market. I think Ac milan is in a financial crisis so ac milan is relatively not buying new players in this winter window.

Leao has a contract until the summer of 2024, so even if Milan falls out of the top 4, he will play in Milan for another year even without the Champions League (and of course, if some club does not pay compensation for him). Now Milan is trying to convince him to sign a contract until 2026, but the reality is that since they are interested in the player, they will either have to raise his salary or even add a signing bonus.
Milan will not risk keeping him this summer if he refuses to sign a new deal. Getting two numbers between € and m is always better than 0.
I agree that Milan this season is not that interesting as the previous one and this tendency is seen in every Italian club from years. After Juve dominance, no team was able to maintain the first position more than a single year.

When it comes to Rafael Leao I believe Milan have a very tough task to do. Because according to speculations Manchester City are already interested in signing him in the summer. Even hearing about this would be a reason for Leao to hold Milan's offer for a contract extension. Leao is still very young of course but he is very skilled now. I would understand if he becomes impatient about playing for a top team that are a title contender in the Champions League especially.

Manchester City are trying everything they can to win that title so they would like to add a player like Leao also to the team.

Damn, Chelsea finished the transfer window with 570 million euros net spend.
Enzo Fernandez is a good player but 120 million seems way over the line.

8 new players in this transfer window alone - somebody's been playing too much Football Manager.
I wonder where will all these players get playing minutes if Chelsea misses out on European spots.
For one reason or another, they are just paying way too much for every single player that they got, and they are just spending like there is no tomorrow. I do not think that they could get any success at all this year, looking at how they are right now, it's obvious that they are not really that good at all and they will probably not end up with anything good in the long run.

However, one thing is for sure, we are talking about something that is getting a bit more attention in the long run if they could find a better manager and a better system with the same roster. That part is good, this year is basically just a bad year, and they will stay like this, but their future is bright.

Thomas partey has been  part of the team, and there's no way jorginho Will replace him immediately, I think Arteta has a lot of decision to make in the team starting up.

Jorginho's arrival does not pose a threat to Thomas Partey's position; rather, the duo will form a strong midfield. Arsenal is indeed building a title-winning team, and I believe they will do so this season. Jorginho is extremely fortunate to have joined Arsenal, who are currently in first place, from a team that is currently in tenth place. I believe Arsenal now has the best team to win the league this season without much difficulty.

The owner of Chelsea seems to be building the team for next season. He is accumulating good players for next season because I am sure that it will be difficult for these players  to blend with each other and with the team this same season.
I don't know whether to say that Ziyech transfer mistakes were deliberate or what. It could be what you said that they have big money.
It's very funny when something like this is unintentional, considering that they sent the wrong document, not just 1 time, but some reports said that 3 times they sent the wrong document. They are professionals and can't get it wrong 3 times in a row.
This is clearly a bit detrimental and even said that Ziyech was already in Paris to undergo medical tests there.

Honestly I have imagined him with Partey and Zinchenko controlling the ball in the middle of the pitch, I guarantee it would be the safest place in the world. But it’s not feasible because Arsenal do not play with two holding midfielders. Jorginho is a cover for Thomas Partey and is much better than Sambi Lokonga. He starts on the bench for as long as Partey is fit. Besides they’re still in the Europa league, so he will definitely get more minutes there while Thomas Partey rests.
I think precisely with Jorginho's presence at the moment it is to serve as a cover for Partey especially with the current conditions it seems that this season Partey has not gone too smoothly in his career considering he is very prone to injury.
Currently he has to return to recovery after playing against City before. luckily said this wasn't too bad.
With Partey's condition like this, Jorginho's arrival is definitely something good for Arsenal's midfield and he can be a good booster in the midst of accompanying Odegaard and Xhaka.

would be a terrible signing for Manchester City. Maddison is a good player but he is similar to Jack Grealish that he will cost a lot of money to sign and he is not good enough to start for Manchester City. Instead he will warm the bench on big wages and end his career. Arsenal is going for Youri Tielemans and I worry that Manchester City will swoop in instead because he could start for them and would not demand as many wages as Maddison.

If we compare the wages of Tielemans and Maddison, the later is more expensive on two grounds because he is English and also younger than Tielemans. But if we look at quality both of them possess it. Even if City gets Maddison he would be a great acquisition because he is a proper attacking midfielder and with only Debruyne there out to out Attacking Midfielder and he needs rest. Moreover Maddison is younger and can be a better back up to Debruyne.


I do not think it was deliberate. this are the simple issues with deadline transfer night where everything happens so fast and in a rush. The Chelsea team sent wrong documents to psg 3 seperate times; it must have been an error considering they were to complete enzo deal before deadline elapses. I also think its PSG fault, Ziyech was up for grabs for over 6 months now and nthey got so late to make a decision

Good chance for Ziyech to remain in the squad; and he might get his summer dream move

It might not be deliberate but submitting a wrong document three times seems like a careless attitude and also a disrespect to both Ziyech and PSG. Now the player has to come back to without any hope of seeing more minutes and this can dampen his career

Arsenal signing jorginho can as a surprise to me , but the coach Arteta knows what's he want,  Youri Tieleman would have been a better signing than Jorginho because of what he brings to the team defensively, arsenal are leaving no area of the squad unattended to as they are improving every aspect of the squad with quality additions, Jorginho will try and settle things in midfield in the coming games.
Arteta wants to have a quick replacement for Thomas Partey in the defensive midfield position because Partey needs a substitute, which is the main Arsenal problem because Sambi Lokonga has been loaned out and Elenny, who is supposed to be his replacement, is also injured, so the signing of Jorginho will help because Partey will be able to rest in some games.
He becomes a worthy replacement, especially with the ability and experience he has, this is clearly very profitable for Arsenal. On the age side, he can still be counted on because regardless of anything, 31 years old is still very capable of competing.
They did lose a few players in recovery and this is a very good addition of course for Arsenal.

Now we just have to wait to see if Arsenal will sign another player as the rumors of an upcoming midfielder for Arsenal still exist at the moment for the nearest.
I understand that Jorginho is the wrong side of 30 and cannot replicate Thomas Partey’s role. But with Mohamed Elneny facing an extended injury layoff, and Sambi going to Crystal palace, Arsenal remain short in holding midfield. It’s not really a replacement for Thomas Partey, but bringing in another midfielder to thicken the depth. Honestly, it’s a good signing, €12M for a proven EPL player that brings in depth and experience to this squad isn't too bad. And it's only a short term fix as the contract also suggests.
Arteta is building a title contender team, with the jorginho arrival to the team is a boost to the team.Arsenal is playing impressive game and a team to  beat, Thomas partey will partner with jorginho in the midfield, Arteta can adopt two defensive midfielders using Thomas partey and jorginho.
Thomas partey has been  part of the team, and there's no way jorginho Will replace him immediately, I think Arteta has a lot of decision to make in the team starting up.

What a mess with the Chelsea administration for delivering the papers too late. Of course you can also be difficult about everything. But it's still messy. I don't understand PSG's anger. They are not at all dependent on Ziyech, especially for the player himself it seems very annoying to me because he is almost always on the bench at Chelsea. At PSG too, but they have a little more potential to compete for the big prizes than at Chelsea. And salary would also be a lot higher in France. It's a pity for Ziyech. Unfortunately, the transfer from Amrabat to Barcelona was also canceled at the last minute for him.

There are reports that Arsenal are near a deal to sign 22-year-old Polish central defender Jakub Kiwior from Spezia. I think he’s the left-footed Center back Arteta was looking for. Never heard of him, but then again, Tomiyasu was an unknown at the time too. They’re spending wisely. Kiwior is a very good signing, a tall lad with great composure on the ball, very calm and a very good passer of the ball as well. Arsenal knows that they need squad depth as they enter the critical stage of the season.
I have never heard of this player either, but considering that Mikel Arteta has always liked to hunt young players for Arsenal, I have no doubts about his capacity to buy players. Jakub Kiwior is a central defender, maybe he will be a good coating for the arsenal squad in the hunt for the regular competition title or even the European league which will soon start in February. In my opinion, the player's price is still reasonable at 30 million euros according to Fabrizio Romano's report.
At this moment it’s obvious that Edu and Arteta are gunning for versatile players and from the short clips I’ve seen already about Kiwior, I’m excited about the deal. Gabriel will have a good competition now going forward and be able to rest for some games. They’re preparing for the series of competitions they’ll participate in next season and at the same time, getting players with the right age and the right mentality. 

Well yes, what happens is that Gabriel Jesúis is an essential player, and at the same time I think that the team needs another way of seeing things, until now I like how they have been playing, if they are in full view of other players, I think it's fine, for now these games that Gabriel Jesus won't be in need someone who has the same level of effectiveness, the team cannot be neglected in front, although we see that the team has an excellent midfield, they cannot be trusted, they always do It lacks a striker who is daring and who can give better results, and that is the reason why Gabriel Jesus must recover quickly.

Liverpool are thinking possibilities to gets N'Golo Kanté from Chelsea and his status will be free transfer this summer because possibly Kante will not gets contract extension and if Chelsea gets Enzo Fernandez from Benfica i think there is no reason for him to stayed at Chelsea and Liverpool indeed currently lack of midfielder but i don't know Kante will be the right solution for Liverpool or not because he was often to gets injured and indeed Kante used to is great midfielder but with his injured history some people are very doubt Kante will performing well again and i wish Klopp will considering this factor before bought him this summer
I think that the question can't be answered. I meant chelsea also wants to give him a new contract. AFAIK, it's not only Liverpool. Real madrid has been reportedly interested in kante too. Kante is such a great player for Chelsea. Kante has been getting so many trophies since he was coming to Chelsea. I think that kante is very close to fully recovering from his injury. I hope that Chelsea will give him a new contract since he was very important to the club. Kante is as good as reece james.

Well, personally I think that Chelsea right now should not leave any player, they have been buying very good players, and for things in life they have not had good results, sometimes things are like that, so I think that for now they should leave these players and form their strategies well to be able to do things better, they already have the material, now what remains is that they can direct them well, and there it is something that they must exploit within their club, and take advantage of the advantages that They are giving the club to be able to do things better, however we have to see many things, how to quickly adapt new players to a style of play and sometimes that can get complicated.

Chelsea still ‘in Lisbon’ for ‘definitive meeting’ to conclude Enzo Fernandez deal



with Chelsea spending so much, and when they haven't had a great run of results this season. Of course, it's not just an evaluation, maybe the Chelsea owners have to act quickly to save their club.
it's not just about achievements and good team play. this is also part of the business. and without achievement, the business they run could be bad.
It looks like they have too much money. Hakim Ziyech don't join Paris Saint-German because Chelsea sent the wrong documents...three times. SG failed to register Ziyech at the French league association LFP. The correct documents were sent after the official transfer deadline and Ziyech was rejected as a new PSG player. So when there is so much money involved, they don't make mistakes like that.

The owner of Chelsea seems to be building the team for next season. He is accumulating good players for next season because I am sure that it will be difficult for these players  to blend with each other and with the team this same season.
I don't know whether to say that Ziyech transfer mistakes were deliberate or what. It could be what you said that they have big money.

But let's be honest, those who took advantage of the transfer windows the most were at Chelsea, the Ziyech thing was something they missed, however I don't think this will delay the team, whether they are preparing for the next season or not, they should take advantage of these players quickly, because they were not free, so don't give up for now, the numbers don't matter, something we have always seen is that anything is possible in football, and as I have said, I think that many of us learned the lesson in the World Cup in Qatar, where very unexpected and very unusual results occurred.

Milan and Roma hope Besiktas don’t do Ziyech deal with Chelsea



Quote
PSG are furious at Chelsea for reportedly ruining the Hakim Ziyech loan move with the wrong paperwork, but Milan and Roma now have to hope that a deal is not clinched with Besiktas before the summer.

Ziyech has long been linked with a move to Serie A, with Milan and Roma eager to take him on loan with an option to buy at the end of the season.

They were never able to agree terms and instead Paris Saint-Germain appeared to swoop in the final 48 hours of the January window on a dry loan for six months.

However, the move collapsed when PSG blamed Chelsea for sending the wrong paperwork three times, therefore forcing them to miss the transfer deadline.

Even though there was an agreement between the two clubs, it failed to materialize because Chelsea was late in sending back the requirements for player registration needs so that they could also be validated before the deadline for the transfer window ended.

So the move ended in failure and there might be a factor The Blues turned their attention to racing against time to further complete the transfer of Enzo which seemed to be his priority which ultimately led to an official deal.

James Maddison seems to be a target for Manchester City according to rumours. But not for the winter of course. They are reported to be planning a move in the summer.

Leicester are already likely to lose many of their significant players in the near future. This horrible season must have made those players really disappointed. They can't waste their career there in the end while there are better options. Maddison would more likely be a substitute player at Manchester City though. But it all depends on how he will perform when he has the chance. Maybe he can be a permanent member of the starting eleven later.

Thomas partey has been  part of the team, and there's no way jorginho Will replace him immediately, I think Arteta has a lot of decision to make in the team starting up.
Jorginho was brought in to help ease the workload off Thomas Partey in the Midfield. The number of times that Sambi Lokonga has been tried, he has proved not yet worthy to share the load with Partey which Elneny was doing. With Jorginho we now have an experienced midfielder that can be depended on in the case that Partey cannot play, or he is removed from a game, or a game where we need our midfield to be solid, the coach can play both of them as said already. My biggest hope however for him is that he adapts well to the club.

We have really spent less this Transfer season, but made good signings in some key positions. We got Trossard for 21million Euros, Kiwior for 17million euros and Jorginho for just 12million Euros, just a total of 50million Euros. We have done good business again.
Yes I agree with you. On the other hand, Arteta is really Wenger's true successor, doesn't want to buy expensive players. Buy cheap players as needed, don't want price wars, Jorginho's transfer is really cool. He is a top player, a genius in the middle, cheap, good at penalties and experience.

This is quick decision from Ten Hag because before Eriksen got injured Manchester United has decide to stopped buy more players this winter but everything was change after Ten Hag seeing Eriksen recent condition which is probably he will be absense until May early

And i have to say Marcel Sabitzer performance during with Bayern was not so impressive even this season he has 15 times to play with only a single goal and he has lost to compete with other players on midfielder position and my question is could he will be able to takeover Eriksen position and performing well because i fear this is only panic buying because Manchester United have no more time to find another players because of deadline winter transfer will be happened today
Christian Erickson's injury is a blow to Manchester United as he has settled in very well in the squad and has contributed about 3 goals and 10 assist so far in all competitions this season. Marcel Sabitzer will not have an automatic shirt but will have to fight for his place in the squad just as every other United midfield players. ETH during a press meeting has urged Fred to step up and fill the void left by Erickson which I still think is a mind game.
