Arsenal FC are hoping to upgrade the squad in this January transfer window with talks linked to a £60 million or more for Mykhailo Mudryk.

It is said that the position he plays and his contribution to Shakhtar Donetsk and Ukraine is the main reason his price tag is high.
Arsenal could also be handed a huge boost in their pursuit of Joao Felix and Tammy Abraham as the Gunners eye a potential deal, too.
Lets hope Arteta gets them in time to maintain stands on the top English table, and other games.

Yes at this point of the season teams you need squad depth to go through to the end of the season because problems like injuries, fatigue and loose of form will come in, you rotation of the squad is very necessary, and if you don't have the depth in squad, squad rotation won't be possible, Arsenal needs more signings so as the strength the squad going into the second half of the season,
Because teams like Manchester city already have the squad depth to go through this period and put the pressure of arsenal all to the last day so they need not just signings, but productive signings so their dream of winning the premier League which they last won in 2004 will be a reality.

Zinedine Zidane has newly turned down an offer by United States. I'm not surprised at all.

Because he hasn't been thinking of being the manager of any club for a long time. To be honest it would be better to see him managing a club in Europe rather than a national team. I remember his successes with Real Madrid very well. They had great a few years with Zidane full of Champions League championships as well. It is impressive to watch a tactician like Zidane to manage a big team. Maybe it wouldn't be Real Madrid again but I wouldn't say no to a different big team this time.

Personally, I do not believe Zidane is interested in coaching the French national team, as I think that he would be better off working as a manager for a club in my opinion, rather than coaching the French national team. In fact, he has proven that he is an excellent club coach while he was at Real Madrid, as he helped them win the Champions League multiple times during his time there. Another thing is that coaching an international team is a hectic job because the coaches do not get to train the players far enough time to bring out the best tactic.

With Deschamps continuing on it's pretty much done that Zidane have to wait but I don't think he is incapable of managing an international team. He did great job at Madrid so I think he can handle national team job. Possible that he will need a bit more time to adjust but I believe that he will adjust into his role perfectly eventually.
I also believe he will be able to be a very good coach when he becomes the coach of the national team. Especially if it is the French national team, there will be a good emotional bond because he is one of those people who played very well when he was an active player. And also he can choose players who have a game according to his criteria, even though it is limited, but again he will definitely show all his abilities to bring achievements for the French national team.

Manchester United reported has interested to bought Bayern Munich player Eric Maxim Choupo-Motting and the rumours say Ten Hag want this player in this January and Ten Hag feel Choupo-Motting game of style are suitable for his strategy so he will attempts to get Choupo-Motting and indeed Choupo-Motting contract will be expired soon and Bayern actually has offering him new contract but the negotiation still went to deadlock because he want long duration contract and Manchester United have tried to take advantage of this situation and although some people believe Choupo-Motting  will stay at Bayern and extended his contract but maybe if Manchester United offering good deal he will be considering that offer
There are lots of wild speculations and rumors that we have not been able to prove to be legit. So far, there are many players who have always linked the Red Devils this January. but unfortunately, no statement has been issued by Ten Hag through its official statement. to be sure, Erik Ten Hag has asked management to buy several players to be brought to Old Tranford this January. So far Ten Hag's attention to bring in a striker is purely as the team needs at this time. the reason is, Ten Hag knows that he will not always be able to rely on Marcus Rashford let alone Martrial.
As for Choupo-Motting, he still has a contract until next summer. reportedly, he is not interested in extending his contract with Bavaria. why, because he knows very well if Bayern bring in a striker who is more established and sharp. automatically Choupo-Motting, will again become a second line-up player, which is why he is reluctant to maintain his contact with Die Bayern.
on the other hand, Bayern will not let him go this January because after all they still need his services at least until the end of the season. so, I believe this rumor is not valid.

Although Choupo-Moting's contract finishes next season if I'm not wrong but still I don't think he's going to be the right fit for Manchester United. So far even with Bayern Munich, he has not been that much consistent even after the departure of Robert Lewandowski.

Another thing is that he is a mediocre-level striker which a team like Manchester United might not like. They need a striker who can score on a regular basis and Choupo-Moting is not something like that. I think they should try to buy some other player instead of him.

Arsenal really want to win a trophy this season,  they are doing all the best they can to win . Winning trophy is not easy,  money must be spent to sign in good players. I think Arsenal are doing the needful by signing player, it is a good development. If Arsenal gets tammy Abraham it will be good the club.

The combination of Gabriel Martinelli, Eddie Nketiah and Gabriel Jesus has successfully brought Arsenal to the top of the EPL standings, one of Arsenal's three favorite striker will spend more time on the bench if Tammy Abraham's negotiations are successful. Signing Tammy Abraham will make Mikel Arteta rearrange the combination of striker, considering Abraham is a talented player, it would be a shame if it wasn't used optimally.

I am actually surprised that Didier Deschamps continues to be the coach of the French national team. Before the final of the last world cup i thought that he would definitely quit, no matter if they lose or win that final, but obviously i was wrong. I think he also wants to win the European Championship with his team after they got eliminated in the round of the last 16 already two years go, even though they were the big favorite to win the title back then.
Also i think that club trainers are still more popular and more present than national coaches, simply because clubs just have way more games then national teams. So i also think the very best coaches in the world are usually coaching clubs and not national teams.

Me thinking Zidane will take over from Deschamps but everything turned wrongly
Deschamps will continue till 2026 as the coach of France
What would be the next club to approach Zidane he may decide finally to coach Chelsea

There are reports that Manchester United are interested in Vincent Aboubakar but I don't know if they are serious about it. They are trying to transfer a football player from the team where Ronaldo is a transfer. I don't know if this could be a psychological move or if I'm thinking about too many unnecessary details. I think this is interesting news. On the other hand, Manchester United need a striker transfer but I don't think Vincent Aboubakar can handle that level because he has generally been successful in easier leagues. Even in Porto, he did not succeed. I think the English Premier League and Manchester United might be a bit of a challenge for him.
These reports most times are just mare rumours the internet carry around to attract attention to their blogs.  This news doesn't seem interesting to me, Aboubakar is aged and I am not so sure he has Premier league experience, if he doesn't btw it will be a total gamble for Manchester United going for him. Manchester United are desperate for a striker but there are many other options out there.
I don't think 30 is too old for a striker. I don't know if Aboubakar can be useful to Manchester United at the moment, but he could be a good backup striker. Apart from this, if he is transferred to the Turkish Super League, where he played in the past, he will definitely start every match as one of the first 11 players. After the transfer of Cristiano Ronaldo, Aboubakar was stuck at the limit of foreign player quota. It's certain to be sent from Al Nassr right now.

Jack Butland is a done deal for Manchester United on loan.

Dubravka's loan contract expired on January 1 and left the team. They must have wanted to fill his place with Butland. There have already been rumours like they were going to bring a new goalkeeper to the team. De Gea has also been speculated with leaving the team by the end of his contract in this summer. But it looks like they just want to keep the quality of goalkeepers as high as possible. Butland isn't a bad goalkeeper normally. He hasn't played in any matches this season so far. But hopefully he will stay fit and be ready for duty when the time comes.

Sunday's transfer gossip:
Atletico Madrid are demanding a £9.5m loan fee and a commitment to buy for £70m from Manchester United as negotiations continue for Portugal forward Joao Felix, 23. Atletico are really asking for a lot of money for Felix, will the clubs reach an agreement in the end?

I think 70 million is a lot of money for a player like Joao Felix. I get that he is a young prospective player but I do not think that he is a really consistent one. What Manchester United needs right now is a perfect number nine who can score on a regular basis and Felix is not that kind of a player in my opinion. Maybe something around 40 or 50 million is the perfect range for Joao Felix.

i guess he is not even worth 150m. i will prefer to get some potential players rather than only focusing with one player which is over priced like him. Pogba was a good comparison at his age but if there will be a club will be paying 150m and that club must be so stupid as fuck. he is not even stronger than pogba prime. it seems like that jude was an over priced player at this moment. there are better players than him. im not sure real Madrid was willing to pay such amount to the doertmund for him.
I still don't know why Pogba still has value now, as I know he's an injury specialist, he is rarely played and always plays on the bench. So if any club still wants his service at a higher price, I think the club must fire the agent and talent search. So, Pogba time is over, the golden age of players like pogba is finish, he is different like Ronaldo, if he's not sharp anymore and old, Ronaldo still have Million Social media follower where still have market for merchandise, stadium ticket and television.

Pogba's decline has been seen in recent seasons, especially after he spent a lot of time recovering from injuries. It does seem strange when players who can no longer show their best game and don't even contribute much to the team are still very valuable. Maybe there are other ratings for some people, but for me personally I don't find any advantages so the price is very expensive.
Pogba is an influential player, his time at Manchester United and Juventus was successful and has made quite a good name for himself probably that is why he is still valued for a huge sum. Paul Pogba is not so old and can still offer some level of experience and talent in the midfield for any teams he eventually moves to.

I highly doubt that De Gea would leave United. If they do not want to resign him then I would understand looking for other goalkepeers but Jack Butland is at most a bench player level, he is not unites main goalkeeper level talented player. I would highly suggest checking that Croatian goalkeeper, he made a name for himself at world cup, and should be cheap.

However, none of that should matter, De Gea would most possibly be ready for whatever they would offer and United could offer a decent money and they could keep him for another few years, a 3 year deal would be fine, he would be still at a good age when that's over and meanwhile they could look for someone younger to replace him.
De Gea is still interested in extending his contract at United which he has clearly stated where is loyalty lies on several occasions and at this point I think De Gea will be ready to accept whatever Manchester United are willing to offer him to remain at the club. Manchester United needs a younger goalkeeper as backup for De Gea if he remains at the club.



De Gea is a really good goalkeeper. Manchester United wins matches thanks to his saves, especially if he has a good day. I think they will give him the necessary value and sign a new contract. His age is also more average.We saw the goalkeepers play for a long time.De Gea is 32 years old. It will continue to play successfully for 3-4 years.

The French national team head coach Didier Deschamps has extended his contract until 2026. With this, Deschamps would have managed France for 14 years. The power of Didier Deschamps in French football will force Zidane to return to club soccer. It would be wise for Zidane to just forget about coaching France because he would then have to wait another 4 years to coach the France National Football Team, but he would not be guaranteed to succeed.
I don't think Zidane is waiting to be manager of France, maybe he is just taking his time before he makes a decision on his next club or country. Didier Deschamps has been doing an excellent job as French manager and there is no reason why France should do away with him, he has taken them to back to back world cup finals, winning one in the process and coming out runner up in the other one, that is an amazing feat, and i expected his contract as manager to be extended, except if he personally didn't want to.
Having said that, there is a Euro tournament coming up next year and it is expected that France are going to be amongst the favorites for it, i'm pretty sure Didier Deschamps is looking forward to it. If actually Zidane is looking for the French job, four years isn't too long to wait, because i am not sure Didier Deschamps would stay longer than 2026, Zidane could even get himself a job with a club side whilst he waits.

Personally, I do not believe Zidane is interested in coaching the French national team, as I think that he would be better off working as a manager for a club in my opinion, rather than coaching the French national team. In fact, he has proven that he is an excellent club coach while he was at Real Madrid, as he helped them win the Champions League multiple times during his time there.

Its not really alot though considering that he was signed for €126 million on age of 19 and he is still a decent player though but if it wasnt Manchester United then this would be a perfect signing but at the moment, Manchester United doesnt really need any other player on that position. They really need a proper striker up front as of now
Joao Felix is a young player with potential, even though it looks like Manchester United for now doesn't really need a Joao Felix but for the long term it feels like it needs to be reconsidered. I think the price is quite high and very difficult to reach a deal. Here, Joao Felix's position requires a club that is indeed suitable, for example, Chelsea or Arsenal as rumors are circulating.
What Man United needed was a pure sticker because that's how the Ten Hag played its strategy. Although Joao Felix tends to play as a second striker but he is still a good option for Man United, especially if Man United can sign him at a competitive price. Considering that Joao Felix is also not the main choice at Atletico Madrid, then Man United has a chance to get Joao Felix at a good price. However, if there are other teams who are also interested in Joao Felix, so there will definitely be the price tug of war, and this could be an advantage for Atletico Madrid.

It looks like Arsenal will have a lot of options in the winter transfer market. Mykhailo Mudryk is also rumored to be being approached by Chelsea. it is a negotiation battle for Arsenal and Chelsea.
it looks like Arsenal will have to burn quite a lot of their money in the winter transfer market if they want to form a very tough squad. especially for efforts to maintain the position of the standings while. maybe Arsenal won't get enough players, but what they get is the best for their squad.
Chelsea have signed a couple players this january window .. there is datro fofana a striker from molde , andrey santos from vasco da gama and benoit badiashile from monaco . Murdyk are indeed approached by chelsea in the past few days but it seems chelsea stepped down the interest.

Arsenal are the leading race to sign him now.

Now that football is seen as a business, it is now considered very normal to give such money to young players who are a little promising.  These funds could be transferred well 10 years ago, but now they are seen as "simple money at risk".  If the player does not meet the expectations, the team can be very upset.  Chelsea is a great team.  I think they can bring more important young people to the youth academy.
Football basically a business. The billionaires will not try to acquiring the team if they are thinking owned the football team will not be so profitable. So many parties are also even seeing football as investment just like when some fundings companies were joining to our the team with so much money. Anythng is always related with business. So many parties would not wanna try to join or watch the football.
Football = business, business = football. That can't be argued

You're right, but how ethical is that?  Football is a sport, football players are also athletes.  Where does the old spirit of football stay when they see it as a business or even as an investment?  Making money may be important, but astronomical numbers should be put aside in football now.  Football is love.

I don't think Depay will be suitable to play for Manchester United, so it would be nice if Manchester United looked at other players if they wanted to buy players.
I actually hope that Manchester United can promote their young players instead of buying players from other clubs, which is what they used to do in the past. Or they are looking for younger players that they will coach later to become great players. Because I see that several player transfers carried out by Manchester United lately seem to have failed, not all but most of them don't contribute much to the development of the club. We can see from Garnacho, yes they can bring in a potential player like that.
Manchester United needs a forward and I think it's not right to promote their young players at this time, Manchester United needs a leader or a star label player for their front line to make it better, after failing to get Cody Gakpo now Manchester United is rumored with several other players, one of them is what I think is good for their team, namely Joan Felix.
and for depay, I don't think this player will develop anymore, he tried at Manchester United a few seasons ago, but he failed to show his best performance as well as at Barcelona, this is a player whose career is fading.
Depay is not going to be ideal for Manchester United at all. It will be better for Manchester United to actually play a young player as the main forward instead of playing Memphis Depay. At least the young players will improve.
Manchester United needs to get a good striker. A striker who is almost like a star. I do not know what they are thinking. But I think Victor Osimhen can be a good option for them. I don’t know what is the status of Osimhen's transfer right now. But I want Manchester United to at least try to get him.

It is not going to be a good deal for Manchester United at all. But it is going to be good for Barcelona because they are really trying to get rid of the players that currently do not provide any value to the team. And obviously, Memphis Depay is one of them.

It’s basically free money for Barcelona if they can sell him. But I am not sure that Manchester United is actually going to get him on the team. Because right now, even though Manchester United does need a striker, I highly doubt that Memphis Depay will be able to provide what Manchester United will be asking from him. And remember he was already a flop once for Manchester United.
