Gareth Bale's contract at Real Madrid will expire in the transfer market this season. I think it's good that Real Madrid didn't extend the contract of this 32 year player because I haven't seen Gareth Bale improve in the last few years.
Spending 34 million euros in my opinion is not right, Real Madrid deserve better than Gareth Bale. Maybe Lewandownski, some football media say Real Madrid are also interested in this Munich striker. I think it would be more appropriate to give it to lewandownski instead of gareth bale

Losing Mane clearly made Liverpool front line leave a big enough hole, the only way for liverpool to cover the hole left by mane was to bring in new players who were really quite effective, now Rapinha can indeed be a solution, but I'm not sure if Leeds United want to release Rapinha easily, especially so far Rapinha has been an important player who helped Leeds United stay in the Premier League, now Liverpool has offered one player (Minamino) plus cash to be able to recruit Rapinha but  Rapinha have a release clause of 60 million pounds of course will not be easily released by Leeds United.

It will be very difficult for Arsenal to sign a quality striker due to their non participation in Champion League, any competent and quality player will always want to play in UCL, thus majority of those players will opt for other ULC participating clubs, I believe that is why Arsenal is looking inward in EPL to sign a striker with an average sign-on fee just like Gabriel Jesus, if they can  sign few more players in defence, midfield and attack the team should be able to do better than last season though the club need some improvement in their performance, lack of consistent cost them UCL spot last season.

sooner or later this will have to change again, how long should the clubs be able to continue paying such high salarys? I really wish that a few clubs would have to go bankrupt because of these crazy payments so that we can get back to football and money doesn't play such a big role anymore.

I honestly think Christian Pulisic is a good player but certainly not at Sadio Mane's level yet so dubbing him as Mane’s replacement at Liverpool is a not fair to the contributions Sadio Mane has made to the course of Liverpool. I don't think Pulisic can ever match Mane inputs at Liverpool at all. I believe Christian Pulisic will shine and turn world-class under Jurgen Klopp though.

Yes, I couldn't agree more, Liverpool had a replacement for Sadio Mane already and I think Thomas Tuchel having selection issues.
With the new owners of Chelsea been American's,( Correct me if I'm wrong ) I don't think he'll be sold and will continue at Stamford bridge next season.
Pulisic is one player I love, same likewise with Son of Tottenham, I really do want them to be very fit for the FIFA World Cup.
They're are like the pillars for their various countries, so I hope they keep off from been injured and remains fit. Sadio Mane also falls under this Umbrella of players I love.

Serge Gnabry has refused to sign an extension bwith Bayern Munich, he's German and would love to see him in the premier league, either of Chelsea and Liverpool. Lol

Pulisic has struggled with injuries and other issues since joining Chelsea, and his performance has been below average. But Liverpool pursuing Pulisic is impossible because I don't believe Chelsea will sell pulisic to Liverpool. Chelsea is rebuilding, and pulisic is an important player who they want to keep. Tuchel, I believe, will not allow that to happen. They have already lost some players due to free transfers. Rudiger has already left, so Alonso and Apzi's future is uncertain. So I don't believe Chelsea is prepared to lose any players. Second, Lukaku is making headlines. He is attempting to return to Inter Milan.

Despite the fact that Lacazette may not have reached the highest level anticipated by fans when Arsenal signed him, to be honest he was a great servant to the club and always fought for the badge. Lacazette joined Arsenal because he wanted to have champion's league football but throughout his stay he couldn't achieve that dream.

Well Tuchel didn't favoured Pulisic much then and he had hard time finding playing minutes but now he is slowly getting some. He is a great player but I don't think they are gonna sell Pulisic now and especially to a PL rival. Serge Gnabry could be a good signing and also Bayern are having a hard time getting in contract agreements with Gnabry. By the way, I think Liverpool already have a replacement in the form of Luis Diaz who is a great potential and completely fills the pressure style that Mane used to make. Maybe needs to work in finishing department but he is great and certainly will develop if given proper game time.

I think Pulisic can replace position leaving by Mane or Salah because he can play well as right and left winger for Liverpool. Despite not get regular position on Chelsea I think ability for Pulisic move to Liverpool next season, Pulisic always have consistent performance when get chance with Chelsea and he have ever scored goals trough Chelsea several season there. I think easy negotiation if Liverpool want to get Pulisic from Chelsea.

It is interesting to see the name of Jose Mourinho as a candidate to replace Pochettino. Maybe because Mourinho's success, who could immediately
give a trophy in his first season with Roma, was a consideration for PSG to recruit Mourinho. Moreover, Mourinho is an experienced coach who is
used to coaching big teams with many star players. Mourinho also has a track record of lifting the Champions League trophy twice. This must have
made PSG management interested in Mourinho, because we know that PSG's main target is to win the Champions League trophy. So Mourinho can be
said to be the right person to coach PSG. And also coaching PSG will be Mourinho's first experience coaching a team from Ligue 1. But reported
that Mourinho was comfortable as coach of Roma and also wanted to stay in Roma. We will see if Mourinho's words are true who often says his
love Roma, we will see Mourinho's loyalty will be tested with PSG's offer which will surely be tempting.

I second the move of Manchester United for the Denmark international, having a good understanding of the premier league already, would form a decent and great partnership with Bruno Fernandez, and we'll get to see a whole lots of creativity in the midfield.
Cristiano Ronaldo would benefit from he's long passes and crosses in the eighteen yard box.

Financial crises would or will push Barcelona to sell,they have no option but to sell, I know behind the scenes, Eric Ten Hag must have contacted Frankie De Jong already Results will change at Manchester United, but will take time.

In the Bible, Gabriel and Jesus were sent on a mission to help humans, God, has finally decided to send Gabriel Jesus to help and save the Emirates from damnation ( decent move ) should be finalized.

Yes, and yes again. I see him almost as I see Lionel Messi, with he's magic left foot, Salah will do excellently well with he's pace and eye and goal scoring abilities.sure thing is, he won't strive nor thrive over there at the Spanish La Liga. I don't think Liverpool are ready to offer such improve wages/ salary he's demanding, he's no British player by the way. Lol.

Ousman Dembele to Chelsea ? He'll thrive, he's former manager at Dortmund just pushing to reunite with him, he'll add nothing to Chelsea, they posses good winger already, their top priority should be a defensive midfielder and another attacking midfielder. But Dembele will get used to the premier league after staying two or three seasons.


PSG deserves a high profiled manager, be it Jose Mourinho or Zidane, Goodluck to whoever!! Thanks for the news @Daniel91

Raphinha is a talented player. But I don't think this Raphinha is suitable as a replacement for Sadio Mane in the Liverpool team. Sadio Mane is a great player. His contribution to the Liverpool squad this season is undeniable. He has scored 5 goals in the Champions League and 16 in the Premier League. He has been able to play well when the team needs its. However, Raphinha is not itinjured much in this season, his fitness is good. So maybe Liverpool coach Jürgen Klopp is interested in getting Raphinha in the team

Though Arsenal have not been able to get a striker yet they're trying from this summer transfer. Following reports Arsenal are willing to get Man City striker Gabriel Jesus. Considering him actually not a bad move after losing Lacazette and Auba. I actually don't see a lot of improvement from Arsenal to make any improvement in their next season with just a single striker, but considering at least 2 striker in this summer move. In the wake of losing quality striker they could concentrate great substitution to get better standing, so that get an opportunity at Champion association.

After Batshuayi's loan contract is over Beşiktaş is looking for a starting striker for next season. Wout Weghorst is one of the candidates. He had a great Wolfsburg career and Burnley bought him in Summer transfer window for 14 million €. But Burnley got relegated so they won't be in Premier League next year, for that reason Weghorst wants to leave. Beşiktaş immediately inquired and there are multiple offers for him. Either on loan or a transfer Beşiktaş wans Weghorst. I believe he would be very successful in Turkish league. I'm not so sure about his transfer fee though, as you know Turkish clubs can't spend too much money anymore.

Liverpool moving fast to find alternative player if Mane leave and today there is a rumour that they interested to bought Leeds United player Raphinha this because Klopp impressed with Raphinha performance last season and apparently Liverpool really want him because besides transfer fee Liverpool also offer Minamino as part of the deal and with this offer they hope Leeds will let Raphinha went to Anfield this summer

Has anyone actually looked at the evolution of salaries? Before Corona was +20 million euros to pay only Messi or Ronaldo and now there are many more players who get that and more. There are many Teams that do not even have that as a total squadvalue. There is talk about the money that has to be paid for a transfer, but the salary is much more important to the player.

Look here:

If Liverpool can get hold of Pulisic and Serge, it's already a workdone for the reds because these two players are best interms of driving and pushing in the ball into opponents halves. Jurgen Klopp likes players that got skills, even Luis Diaz got one. He's this kind of coach, that once you are fit, he will give you a role in the team. Mane will definitely leaves the club, but the replacement will not be problem to Klopp because he has been in the team for such a long time and knows how to manage and control the team.

Rıdvan Yılmaz is only 21 years old. He is a very young, hardworking and talented football player. I believe that one day he will be a football playing in the English Premier League. He has that capacity. Currently, Eintracht Frankfurt of the German League are making an effort to recruit him into the team (https://www.goal.com/de/meldungen/eintracht-frankfurt-ridvan-yilmaz-transfer-besiktas/blt8726d37d1efdd8a1). If he is successful in the German League, his next transfer will create a big sound. He is a young talent that should definitely be watched (https://www.transfermarkt.com.tr/ridvan-yilmaz/profil/spieler/477930).

Transfer rumours:

Manchester United are hoping they can lure Denmark playmaker Christian Eriksen on a free transfer with the 30-year-old's short-term deal at Brentford at an end.
United also remain confident of signing Barcelona's Dutch midfielder Frenkie de Jong. It's very busy in Manchester again and a lot of new players are coming, but will it finally affect their results?
Arsenal are willing to offer Manchester City and Brazil striker Gabriel Jesus, 25, a weekly wage of £190,000 to move to Emirates Stadium this summer. Is Jesus really ready for such a decision and leaving the Manchester City?
Barcelona have told Liverpool's Egyptian striker Mohamed Salah, 29, he can join them next summer.  How realistic is the possibility that Salah, another great Liverpool star, will leave the club after speculation that Mane will do the same this year?
Chelsea are leading the race to sigh Barcelona and France forward Ousmane Dembele, 25, who is available on a free transfer when his contract expires at the end of this month. Did Dembele really make the decision to leave Barcelona?
Roma manager Jose Mourinho has emerged as a rival to Zinedine Zidane to replace Mauricio Pochettino as Paris St-Germain boss. Surprising news for me. I thought Mourinho had fallen into oblivion and would never coach the world’s best clubs again. As far as this is a realistic possibility?
