Transfer rumours:

Egypt forward Mohamed Salah, 29, is close to agreeing a new contract which will keep him at Liverpool until the end of his career. Somewhat surprising news because so far there has been a lot of speculation that Salah is not happy with his salary in Liverpool and that he will surely leave the club. Has a salary agreement finally been reached?

I'm also a bit surprised here as the salary demands were the major issue getting in way of the contract extension. And haven't heard about any meeting happened since last reported when there weren't any developments progressing towards contract extension. I don't think so there is any update to the situation so I think situation is still the same.
According from https://www.dailymail.co.uk/ Mo Salah have been agree extended new contract with Liverpool until three years later and will get salary almost £500,000 each week. Have option extended 12 months later and make Salah keep several years on Anfield Stadium. Nice news for Liverpool fans trough play on 1st leg champion league quarter final after this agreement, I think is best salary value for Salah as Liverpool important player and look on how many goal scoring every year he looks got expensive salary. Now Liverpool have completed forward and not have to worry about Salah future because he keep extending on Liverpool again.

This would be a great transfer for Barcelona undoubtedly. I know that they already have Aubameyang as a decent striker. And his performance so far has been mesmerizing too. But they would still make use of an even better striker to play big for not only the La Liga but also the Champions League next season. Lewandowski seems like he is looking for a new adventure and I don't think that Bayern Munich will make big difficulties for him. It would be a great addition to Barcelona.
I think the opposite. It will be a very bad decision for Barcelona. If they sign Lewandowski, Aubameyang may feel not comfortable about his position in Barcelona squad. Then, he may decide to move to another team. Aubameyang needs to play regularly if he wants to play again with his best. If Lewandowski joins Barcelona, Aubameyang probably sits on the bench for a long time and it will be the same as the situation when he was in Arsenal. So, actually Barcelona no needs to sign a new top central forward.

Honestly, I think I have had enough of all these speculations up and down regarding Manchester United recruiting a coach, I think Zidane is not coming to the club because United don't is not his type of team and he is smart enough to know this. He won't want to dent his reputation. Although I think Erik Ten Hag won't give Manchester United the desired success but he will be more productive than Zidane with the club. He can work on players from the academy and make the first team players but Zidane will want massive recruitments which I know United won't give to him.
I was convinced that Mauricio Pochettino could be a good manager for Manchester United, but I was disappointed to learn that the club's management no longer considers this possibility due to the fact that he had mismanaged stars such as Neymar, Messi and Mbappé and that's a big downside and something that could be repeated at Old Trafford. For now, they are considering hiring Ajax's Erik ten Hag for the role, but will it work?
I'm also out of ideas for this moment.
By the way, I do not quite understand the claims against Pochettino that he will not be able to cope with Neymar, Mbappe and Messi. If you think like that, then I'm not at all sure that Erik ten Hag would have succeeded in doing the same. The tragic loss in the match with Real Madrid hit Pochettino's position in the head coach market very hard and greatly complicated his transition to Manchester United, although a few months ago it was considered almost a fait accompli. How much accidents can mean in sports and how expensive Donnarumma's stupid mistake cost both the team itself and the fate of the team's head coach. In my opinion, the figures of Pochettino and ten Hag are more suitable for Manchester United in this situation than the figure of Zidane.

Indeed, there is no guarantee that Erik ten Hag will succeed at Man United, but the chances are quite large when compared to Pochettino.
Moreover, there are rumors that Erik ten Hag wants to bring Van Persie back to Old Trafford. It is reported that Erik ten Hag has started informal
talks with Van Persie, we know Van Persie was quite successful when he played at Man United. Erik ten Hag hopes that Van Persie can help him
if it is true that Erik ten Hag is chosen as Man United's main coach next season. Van Persie's experience of Man United is needed by Erik ten Hag
to find the right strategy for Man United. The preparations made by Erik ten Hag by inviting Van Persie as one of the staff who were brought
to Old Trafford, indicates that Erik ten Hag is quite confident he will be selected as Man United's main coach next season. I also think that compared
to other candidates, Erik ten Hag is the most suitable as the main coach of Man United next season.

Bayern Munich's Poland striker Robert Lewandowski, 33, has told Barcelona he wants to join them this summer if they can offer him a contract of more than two years. Great reinforcement for Barcelona if this transfer happens. How will Bayern react to Lewandowski's departure from the club?

This would be a great transfer for Barcelona undoubtedly. I know that they already have Aubameyang as a decent striker. And his performance so far has been mesmerizing too. But they would still make use of an even better striker to play big for not only the La Liga but also the Champions League next season.

Mohamed Salah 29, is a star and a very big asset to Liverpool. He is doing very great and therefore we do not expect to hear any other rumour such as he wants to go another club. It is very sure that Mohamed Salah will not leave the club, not even at this time that he is doing so well in the club.
Then there is this clause that I do not understand that Mohamed Salah wants to sign a contract that will keep him at Liverpool till the end of his career. What kind of contract will keep him till the end of his career? When will his career end and is there still a life contract in football?
I will need an answer regarding life contract as concerns Salah.

They are talking about 20m per year.

It is a lot of money of course but it is not the same as the others top players.
Mbappè for example earns the double and CR7/Messi 3 times more.

I think the essence of the news is not in the desires of Ronaldo (they have not changed) but in the desires of the management. If the management of United wants to get rid of the legend, then this is sad news and, in my opinion, a mistake. Perhaps this is part of the agreement with Zidane - as far as I know, he does not want to see Ronaldo in his team.

Hmm Zidane to United .. is that close? All I heard was ten Haag to become next but still it's not done yet. Anyway Ronaldo is a world class striker and I couldn't think of a reason why anyone would not want him in their team. He is a good leader and still with the age he still got it. I don't think he is gonna move away from United as of now.

Rumors about the arrival of Zidane at United have long ceased to circulate, but this does not mean that this cannot happen. When I heard the news about the possible departure of Ronaldo, I first of all remembered Zidane - for him this is one of the key issues. I don’t know for what reason, maybe because Ronaldo’s authority is no less than Zidane’s and Zidane cannot work in such conditions, given that as a player Ronaldo is no longer top 1.

Are we sure about Mbappé joining Real Madrid?

Spanish media were saying "He will sing next week" 3 weeks ago.

Are we sure he will not stay at PSG or what if he will going somewhere else?

Today I saw the news that PSG want to make Mbappe team captain as an additional argument in favor of him staying. A dubious move, plus it brings tension to the team right now.

Some rumors from a very reliable source:

Rudiger is asking 20milions bonus at the sign (as a free agent) and a net salary, taxes excludes, of 10m.

At least it is what their agents asked in the meeting in Spain that happened yesterday.

Actually, I don't know how to react to that. It is obviously going to be good for the team but are they willing to spend that much money right now? Considering that they are trying to show interest in Kylian Mbappé. I think this is not too bad. But, will they be able to afford that type of salary is a big question now.

This would be a very daring decision if such a thing happened. He will remain at Liverpool until the end of his career by signing a new contract that has yet to be announced. While he was delaying contract renewal, he tempted many teams. He will surely be their lifetime legend the day he chooses the Reds his entire career. No doubt that he is a great player, and since he has been loyal to them and has performed every year, why wouldn't he stay with them longer!

Ronaldo cares about competing in the Champions League a lot even now too. And it looks like Manchester United are going to have some trouble about finishing the season in top 4. If they don't make it, I think that he will think of leaving the team seriously. And at that point, maybe PSG would like to intervene and sign him. And Ronaldo wouldn't say no to that I guess. But I don't know how good it can be to have Messi and Ronaldo at the same team. It is doubtful if they can play good together.
Well, there is still no certainty and indeed what they want by bringing Ronaldo there apart from the fans' profits, not the trophy.
Ronaldo and Messi were players but their eras are fading now especially with Ronaldo's age it's quite hard to come to terms with if they want to make a contract to fulfill a desire in the UCL.
Ronaldo is one of the best players but that doesn't mean they don't think about age in my opinion

You have a point that their age is coming to an end now. But they still have power to be quite helpful for their teams. And maybe PSG would like to try something new before one of them decides to retire. It would be really interesting to see these two legends at the same team. It would be like a dream team but a late one.  Grin  Messi and Ronaldo don't see each other as enemies we all know that. Therefore maybe they will have a good relationship and strengthen the team a lot.
They actually have a pretty good relationship but indeed the media and the fans sometimes make this seem like enemies even though if you look at some of the off-field meetings they actually get along quite well in my opinion.
It would be very good to see the two Goats are in the same club and work hand in hand to advance their club, even though they are quite old now but it's not too grandiose if almost everyone expects this to happen, but the final decision is of course Ronaldo who decides now

Antonio Rudiger damning Barcelona meeting sends Chelsea double transfer reminder Tuchel regrets
Source: https://www.football.london/chelsea-fc/transfer-news/tuchel-antonio-rudiger-chelsea-barcelona-23569891

This is some interesting news.  but I still think that Antonio Rüdiger will still stay at Chelsea.

As of now, nothing could be said for clear. As long as he doesn't signs the contract extension his future at Chelsea is uncertain. The huge pay increase is what stands in the way and there lot in line already as I have read in reports and also they are ready to meet his wage demands.

Couple of weeks earlier, their was uncertainty around the whole defence line as their contract was about to end. Both Azpilicueta and Christensen were in list of Barca. Azpi contract extension is reported as done and as for Christensen he had confirmed things up with Barca. They need to get Rudiger sign on new contract otherwise they have to find a replacement.

TBF I don't think Rudiger will leave Chelsea and many Chelsea fans share this thought too. It will be quite easy for him to renew his contract with them when the ownership issue is sorted. I think that's the only disturbing factor for him and most players in the club at moment. It is actually laughable that Manchester United thinks Rudiger would consider joining them, if he is leaving Chelsea, he will go a club that can actually win trophies. PSG and Real Madrid are worthy options at moment.
It will be fine if Rudiger remains in Chelsea because he is a big structure in the club. Infact Rudiger is an asset to any team he will go. Due to his fine form, every club will like to have home at the defence line. But since his rumor keeps coming up it can be like he will leave Chelsea because everything is possible.

Rudiger to go to Manchester United is possible, forget about the trophy or going to champions. Manchester United is still a big club that every player wants to join and make money and add value to names. After all that is what football is for...

I think PSG is also out of the equation because a player who seeks greatness cannot achieve much if he goes to PSG other than the league title in my opinion.

Manchester City is going to win the race by signing Erling Haaland because they have been planning for this for a long time. Erling Haaland will also prefer to be in Manchester City rather than Real Madrid. But, in my personal opinion, I would have preferred to see Erling Haaland in Real Madrid.

Haaland is one of the targets that Manchester City has been pursuing so far and I think they will be brave enough to spend whatever fee Dortmund will ask later, Manchester City desire to recruit Haaland cannot be separated from the lack of pure strikers that Guardiola currently has after Aguero departure this season. Then, yes, Madrid are also eyeing Haaland but it looks like they will be more focused on getting Kylian Mappe as a duo for Benzema on the attack line next season, but wherever Haaland will go it looks like he will be one of the players who will break the transfer record for next season.

And about how Philippe Coutinho will play in Newcastle United if he actually plays for them, I think it will be ok for both parties and he will be a great addition to Newcastle United.
Both Man City and Real Madrid are in need of a sharp striker and Erling Haaland is the perfect player fit for that role, however I believe Real Madrid will extend Benzema contract for few more seasons having in been a terrific and sparkling form now, thus might deprive Erling Haaland a starting lineup if he eventually sign for the club, consequently he might opt to sign for Man City where a starting role will obviously be guaranteed, a position Man City is eagerly trying to fill for a very long time, Guardiola had been using a false nine in most of the team tactical formation.

I don't think that Ronaldo would stay at Manchester United anymore in case they don't manage to make it to the Champions League again. It is really one of the most important things for him. On the other hand, I wonder how much longer Manchester United would like to keep him at the club too. Maybe they also won't want to continue to with him anymore and will aim to sign a younger top striker instead. In any case, we must admit that Ronaldo has contributed to the team a lot so far.

I think it's better for Ronaldo to seek other teams for his future endeavors. At this moment Manchester United does not seem to achieve anything, and Ronaldo obviously did really well for the team in my opinion and saved his team countless times from a loss or a draw. I think it's best for both parties to part ways. Ronaldo will be better off without Manchester United and Manchester United also need a younger attacker in my opinion who can be developed from a young age.
