Yes, at least the potential to survive is still there when viewed from the duration of the contract. And I haven't seen any club willing to pay as much as Manchester United paid Ronaldo.
And Man United also doesn't seem interested in a striker who may be assumed for Ronaldo's replacement, the lack of contribution in Man United's front line makes the coach have to keep Ronaldo.

Why? I think it is possible that Messi plans to leave PSG if there is a good offer from any top club. I see Messi feels uncomfortable in PSG, he has no power there. Even, a player like Mbappe doesn't give good respect to him. I assume Messi deserves to get a better club, PSG isn't a really good team for him. In the last season, Messi cannot play maximally because of many internal problems in PSG. On the field, Neymar and Mbappe also cannot play as a team. They play more individually, they want to show up their skills. Messi can't play at his best level if the situation is still the same. Playing in PSG just ruins his career.

Paquetá could be a nice addition to the midfield. I don't think Arsenal are tight on money. They show this with the high-cost transfers they make. They've been behind the race for years and now they have a chance to build a good squad, why not use it? I'm tired of watching Arsenal race for fourth place. I want to see them compete against Manchester City and Liverpool. It's not possible to enter this challenge without spending money. It happens once in a hundred years that Leicester City does. If the player is promising, you shouldn't hesitate to spend some money.

I don't think Lionel Messi is willing to leave PSG. Considering some of the current situations, he may be angry, but I do not think that he will be leaving. It also feels like the competition between PSG's attackers is very high in the current circumstances. And Lionel Messi & Neymar are also not inclined to like the power that is given to Mbappé.

In my opinion, PSG is not in a very favorable position right now. I really don't expect them to do anything better than just winning the league title again. And if that is the case, what's the point of vesting so much money?

I think right now it is not going to be a smart decision for Arsenal to get in a race to get this player against Newcastle United.

Because Arsenal just made some significant transfers and I don't know what the current financial situation of Arsenal is. Therefore, it is evident that Newcastle United can spend a lot of money on any player right now. Because they do have a lot of money to spare.

I hope that Arsenal is going to be really careful about what they are planning to do right now. However, Lucas Paquetá can be a very worthwhile addition to Arsenal right now.

Zaha has been a very important player for crystal palace for years now and has been consistent, scoring goals and helping the club maintain their premier league stay. I once heard rumours he was to join Arsenal but looks like they were just rumours in the end. It's not clear yet how concrete the speculations about Roma wanting his services is but it will be a good move for him, working with Jose Mourinho, he will do great and even score more goals and contribute to the teams growth.

Hopefully Ronaldo will be staying at the club, Manchester United fans will be praying so hard now for their favorite player CR7 to stay help them win the Europa cup and premier league trophy next season. Manchester United fans are very optimistic about next season, Erik Ten Hag is believed to be the one that will bring them glory. Losing Ronaldo wasn't part of their dream, if Ronaldo finally decides to move I would love to see him at PSG, Bayern Munich or back to Real Madrid.

Dembele's negotiations with Barcelona have been going on for a long time, in fact it's been a year and they haven't found an agreement between
Dembele and Barcelona. The problems first arose when Dembele asked for a high salary increase, which at that time Barcelona who were
experiencing financial problems certainly could not fulfill Dembele's request. In fact, in January 2022, Barcelona's management had allowed Dembele
to leave. because Barcelona are also tired of not being able to find an agreement with Dembele.

But the arrival of Xavi changed everything, Dembele could show his best form and also Xavi really liked the game from Dembele. This finally made
Barcelona relent by re-negotiating with Dembele's agent, unfortunately, until Dembele's contract runs out an agreement has not been reached.
In the end Marca reported that Barcelona and Dembele were close to an agreement to extend Dembele's contract by two years, although Dembele's
salary will be cut by 40%. Dembele's decision to stay because Xavi repeatedly convinced Dembele to stay and it looks like Xavi's efforts are quite
successful, because in the near future Dembele seems to be extending his contract with Barcelona.

Regarding the purchase of Raphinha, it looks like it's still going on, even though Barcelona are almost able to keep Dembele, because Raphinha is
one of the main targets that Xavi wants. So Barcelona are still fighting for Raphinha, I think it would be very good if Barcelona could have Dembele
and also Raphinha. That will make Barcelona stronger and have many options for the winger position.

Messi has been a very key player for his new and former club, he did so well at FC Barcelona for years winning the ballon dor seven times in that campaign but since his move to PSG we have seen his performance dropped by a high margin, his contributions have not been significant and he barely got 15 goals in the league last season which is a very poor record for Messi. We will hope to see a much better performance next season. Ronaldo also did not fare well in Manchester United, these two players had their best seasons in the Spanish la liga

He has completed everything here including undergoing medical tests with the Juventus team.
I saw him upload a post on social media with a caption which is quite a sign that he is indeed happy to be back at Juventus.
Now he is at Juventus Headquarters and reportedly his contract for a new start at Juventus will last around 4 years.

Dembele really seems likely to return to Barcelona in the near future. The talks about re-signing him are still on for now. Barcelona are after Raphinha at the same time too. I wonder if they will give up on one of these transfers. On the other hand there is only Trincao as a right winger in the team now. Taking this into account I think that Barcelona might even go for both of Dembele and Raphinha. It would be better for them to increase the number of alternatives.

So Pogba seems to have signed his contract but according to rumors, they will announce it on Monday, don't know the reason.

Tomorrow DeLigt is supposed to be in Turin, lets's see if he will land.

It was considered unsuitable because the PSG camp seemed to put their egos forward of course players like Neymar, Mbappe, and Messi both had high goals and high achievement targets, inevitably competing coldly was what they did. However, the three of them must still exist and highlight their respective qualities. They aim to collect as many goals as they can score, but the problem is that when a club plays together, they automatically have to share seats, right? well, that's where PSG's vulnerability is until they look difficult to reach the top of the Champions League. If all three are separated and in different clubs then it will be easier for us to see which of them is the most competent.

One of Arsenal's targets is Lyon attacking midfielder Lucas Paqueta now. Newcastle have also been monitoring his condition for a long time. His market value is 35 million euros now and he has still three more years on his contract. This can cause Arsenal to pay a really significant amount of money to be able to sign him. His performance at Lyon has been decent so far. On the other hand I doubt that Arsenal need this many attacking midfielders now. They have already signed Fabio Vieira and they still have Odegaard and Smith Rowe also.

Manchester United have shown seriousness in their move the Argentine centre back.  Other team like Arsenal have also showed interest in the player but seen their bid rejected as it didn't match the prize Ajax want for the player, hopefully we will knock the outcome by next week as Manchester United will focus now on trying to keep their key player or find a suitable replacement for him on time and it looks certain that Barcelona might get their target afterall after submitting a new bid of 47m for Raphinha but no reply yet on the bid so hopefully we will get  their feedback next week.

I also don't think that there is any chance that Cristiano Ronaldo will join PSG this summer. I mean we all know that PSG does not really care about putting together a team that is well balanced and has a good mix of experienced superstars and in addition to that also players that have no problem to do the dirty work and to attack the enemy team early and to close gaps in the midfield. PSG just buys the players with the biggest names, throws them together in a team and afterwards they are always wondering why they have not won a big trophy yet.
Just imagine Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Mbappe in the same team. This means that you have 3 players that are doing absolutely nothing for the defense. No early pressing, nothing.

Tchouameni was paid by Madrid from Monaco with a fairly large price of 80 million euros and indeed this is a fairly large nominal but from his previous performance especially he still has the chance to continue to grow so it is quite reasonable in my opinion.
Why should he be excluded because after all he is a failed purchase at Real Madrid because his contribution is in stark contrast to his price.

Paul Pogba is wonderful player who is very committed in what he does, he was a key player when he was in Manchester United and a played good role in making is former club to achieve goals. I am very sure Manchester United will miss Paul Pogba in the next season,  but  I think is coming to Juventus is a great decision.

Messi is definitely staying in PSG, is there any rumor linking him away from the club? I am yet to see any. To be honest though, Messi didn't look his usual happy self playing for PSG last season, it could prolly be because he wasn't expecting to leave Barcelona then, and maybe he could not come to grips with what the actual reality on ground was. He ought to perform better next season by the way.

Having said that, i do not think PSG are going to win the CL anytime soon, i might be wrong though, but they do not look like it, Messi, Neymar and Mbappe haven't looked compatible since they started playing together, i know they have a new manager, but i still think the trio are not compatible, obviously they can prove me completely wrong in this new season, but till then i will stick with what i have just said.

He has contract till June 2023 so he is in there for at least one more season for sure. He won't be leaving PSG now as you said he is more kind of focused into game rather than focusing on money and making hype. Last season didn't went well as expected for PSG in CL but they are making some changes so let's see how it goes and how well Messi adjusts to it. Messi leaving PSG now doesn't seems like a good rumour. Wouldn't believe it unless comes out from good source.
