It seems that Barcelona is already taking advantage of the Leeds' league position. It is understood that Raphinha has a 25 mil Euro release clause in case Leeds gets relegated and considering that it is a realistic option at this point, Barcelona is offering 35 million at this time.
Apparently he's Xavi's preferred option to replace Dembele and Spanish media is reporting that Raphinha already agreed personal terms with Barcelona.
A smart bid from Barcelona but I would refuse if I was Leeds. After last week's win they will probably stay in the PL and in that case Raphinha is a 50 mil.$ player.

Being Cristiano Ronaldo is certainly not always easy, especially considering the sad situation of Manchester United at the moment, plus Ronaldo is a mega star, it is certain that every mistake made by other players will have an impact on Ronaldo, news spread that almost half of Man City's players want Ronaldo to land at the Etihad Stadium, they really want to play with ronaldo, kevin de Brune once said, if ronaldo wants to join man city, he will surely spoil him with a good pass, we have to wait if Ronaldo changes his mind and wants to land at the Etihad Stadium.
Cristiano Ronaldo will not cross over to Manchester City and he understands that Manchester United is the club that made him a famous player after Sporting Lisbon. If Cristiano Ronaldo leaves next season because of Manchester United's deteriorating condition, then that's not a Ronaldo excuse. Ronaldo will choose to retire at Sporting Lisbon.For now, it's not the players who are the problem that has an impact on Manchester United's condition, but the owners.

Dunno how accurate is that news but I don't think they want him in the team to score goals but maybe to convince other players to join Newcastle, as an assurance that the team will play for the first place next season. Well imo better to throw that money on Haaland, Vlahovic although he freshly joined Juve, Lukaku might be useful too...
That is very strange if that is true, I very rarely hear another club is interesting to recruit Neymar except for Newcastle. I don't know what is special about that guy. Actually, many talented players for that position which I think is still quite cheap like Bruno Fernandes, Kevin De Bruyne, Bernardo Silva, Hakan Calhanoglu and etc. But, if the goal is marketing, of course, the strategy is right, better to recruit also Ronaldo and Messi together with Neymar. because both have the highest Instagram follower too.It is not difficult for Newcastle to bring Neymar to St James' Park, the power of money they have can offer a high salary for Neymar. Old stories can be repeated again, when Neymar left Barcelona because he was tempted by the big salary offered by PSG.
It was a surprise for me that Psg was eliminated by Real Madrid. They had an advantageous score in the first match against Real Madrid, but were eliminated after losing 3-1 in the rematch. They will now only play for the league 1 championship. It is almost certain that they will win. There is a big difference between them and the second team. They will lose Mbappe at the end of the year. They should make a transfer to fill his place. Now what I'm wondering is who will Psg add to the team next year?
It was a surprise for everyone that Real Madrid managed to beat PSG, specially that last goal coming so soon after the second one really made PSG really tremble and not recover from the defeat at all. Mbappe was definitely sure about leaving, I have no doubt about that but after that game, I am 100% certain that he made his decision a lot easier for sure, he wanted to leave and he has a great reason to leave right now.With Mbappe on the roster, Real will definitely be a lot better team next year. Not like they are bad, they are at the top of La Liga right now and managed to beat PSG to further in champions league, but with Mbappe they will also be a lot better and easier to be there.

Neymar may also be a personal favourite of the new owner of the club, may be another reason as well, It will be nice to see Neymar play in the EPL though, maybe his worth will finally get to show.
In other news, Arsenal wants to increase the wages of Saka who has been very good for the team this season from £30k to £125k.
For me this is a very good move, because with his current form, many teams from England and even other leagues will want him and they could have easily enticed him with a higher wage. At the moment, Saka seems very happy at arsenal, and has earned his place as an important player in the team, It would have been really sad to see him leave the club at the end of the season just when he is top form as a result of low wage. We need to keep him for the champions league next season.
It would be really a great reunion between Messi and Barcelona but I don't expect them to sign him anymore. Actually the main reason for this could be their current financial status. I don't think that they have much transfer and wage budgets left now. And it wouldn't be enough to afford Messi I guess. But this shouldn't be a problem for Barcelona as they are already entering a new era.
Barcelona basically don't want him but the rumour is Messi father Jorge Messi concacted Barcelona and want his son back to this team although Barcelona manager Xavi said Messi always be acceptable here because he is a legend but i don't think Messi will return to Spain in the near future especially Barca current priority was build new era without Messi so this news probably will remain rumourIf the Neymar rumours have any truth to them and he could be released before the 2025 contractual commitment he has at PSG, the new castle owners would not have any problems paying the penalty amount back to the team so he could play for them.
And so that would start a domino effect to begin the disbanding of the big three at PSG... MNM no more.
Then Mbappe would just need to find a new place he would like to play with because he is the youngest of the mighty trio.

After Muhammad bin Salman bought Newcastle and they had fresh funds they had made some useful transfers. They are out of the relegation zone. The new news is that they are even ready to buy Neymar. They prepared 300 million pounds to bring him from PSG. But does Neymar want to? He has a contract until 2025 at PSG. Of course, it is quite expensive for the age of him who has been 30 years old, especially he is often injured this season.

The thing is, la liga has a salary cap, which means that if they sign mbappe and haaland together, that should be a good amount of money to spend. I know that they do not have the salary cap limitations like Barcelona, but we do not know what would happen if they spend 200 million or whatever Dortmund would want, plus maybe close to 100 million on two players, thats 300 million right there. I get that they haven't spent too much money so far, but just two players for all that much money would be insane and could put them in financial trouble that could lead them to become like barcelona unless they have constant success. Benzema also plays great, allowed them to go to next stage in UCL, if they get Haaland, will they play together? Will Benzema be benched after such a great season? I mean he is a great player as well and getting Haaland would be confusing when you have Benzema as well.
A team like Real Madrid won't face any financial problems if they want to sign Haaland, moreover, since they were coached by Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid didn't spend a lot of money. Real Madrid does have the potential to get Mbappe and it's on a free transfer, so Real Madrid still has enough funds to sign Haaland at the same time.
Yep. Real Madrid must have no problem with Haaland's transfer fees and his salary. Since the previous year, we never heard that Real Madrid has an issue with a crisis of money. Also, Ancelotti is very tight in using funds for buying players. So, we can assume that Real Madrid has enough money to sign top players like Haaland. Especially when Real Madrid sign Mbappe for a free transfer and they may succeed to sell some unused players like Bale, Hazard, Jovic, and Diaz. The only thing that could be a problem is the ego of the two players because it could be that both of them don't want to play in the same team for some reason.
This is very possible. Some players don't want to play with the same team. They may think it may reduce their popularity and they cannot optimize their potential. But in my opinion, it is actually no problem to join the same team since they still can play together. Benzema-Haaland-Mbappe can be a nice combination in Real Madrid attacking line.

Christaino Ronaldo would have been very successful in Manchester City. But his loyalty is to Manchester United fans it would be treachery for him to join their close rivals. That move woulf have made Ronald look like a mercenary. How can he play for City after having a career at Manchester United. It would be better to stay in Juventus than playing in any of the Manchester clubs. It's just a dream for evveryone though , to see cristiano and messi play together and it's under pep guardiola! Manchester city are the one who can realized it.
I believe Cristiano Ronaldo has a very strong bond with Man United, because Ronaldo will always remember Man United is the club that made him
the mega star he is today. After all, Ronaldo must have realized that the Man United fans loved him very much, so I believe if Ronaldo leaves
Man United it is impossible to move to Man City, it will only disappoint Man United supporters. But I firmly believe that Ronaldo will not leave Man United
in the near future, especially since Man United's condition is very worrying. I believe with Ronaldo's loyalty he will stay at Man United until Ronaldo
can give a trophy to Man United. Hopefully next season Man United can get a good coach, in order to make Man United play even better.
True , despite it's not something that impossible .. cristiano would put his loyalty above all before making any decision especially moving straight to another side of manchester .. that would be broke his years of loyalty to manchester united. It's just a dream for evveryone though , to see cristiano and messi play together and it's under pep guardiola! Manchester city are the one who can realized it.
When we talk about the potential betrayal of Manchester United by Ronaldo, we should not forget that there are not so many options for moving to another club, and Ronaldo's age is by no means young. Therefore, I understand the disappointment of Manchester United fans about this, but still the current MU is not the club that allows you to reveal the best qualities of Cristiano as a football player and Manchester City is clearly better suited in this regard. Also knowing what Ronaldo's ambitions are, I am not sure that the player will want to stay at Manchester United if the team fails to qualify for the Champions League next season.

We should not be surprised if a number of players walk out the door at PSG. Those top players don't feel like playing there anymore, do they? As a team, things are not going well at all, and for years they have been disappointing in the Champions League.
There is no hope to win UCL title in PSG, so those top players simply give up and consider leaving. Mbappe, Neymar, Messi, Donnarumma, and Ramos may leave PSG in the next transfer window. These top players look like not comfortable anymore staying there since there is no good progress in this team performance in UCL. We can understand if they are very frustrated and disappointed with PSG management, they need a new team to continue their career. Probably we can see a weak PSG in the next season if those top players leave.
I don't understand Liverpool. Mo Salah is a very good actor. An attacker who dominates the Premier League. He certainly deserves the best salary. It has to be rewarded somehow. If he doesn't renew his contract with Liverpool, other teams can give him the money he deserves. I think Newcastle United will try to build a super squad next year. If they open the mouth of the purse, maybe even Salah is in the possibilities. After all, Newcastle is a team bought by the richest family in the world.
Actually Liverpool and Salah were really close to signing a new deal some time ago. The news about this contract extension was all over the place. But it still hasn't come true. This is bad for him and the team both of course. I'm just hoping this deal to be completed as soon as possible. Liverpool have no option like losing Salah to another team now. And yes, Newcastle are aiming to build a very strong team for next season. They have improved their effort a lot and started climbing in the standings. Staying in the Premier League is the key factor for them now.

Well if Arsenal can sign Coutinho that isn't a bad idea atleast they will have an option for an attacking midfielder Odegaard is perfectly playing that role now, their is no need to change any pattern of the team, however there is the possiblity of Arsenal playing UCL next season EPL and FA cup inclusive thus there will the need for Arteta to rotate his players so as to rest some of these players to avoid fatigue if they play week in week out, Coutinho has been a very good and experience player, I remembered his exploits at Liverpool before signing for Barcelona were things didn't work out for him.for Odegaard and Emile Smith Rowe, because like you said Arteta has to rotate his players so as not to get injured due to fatigue, because Arsenal is
likely to play in many competitions next season. But the problem is whether Coutinho is willing to move to Arsenal, which Coutinho will not get
guaranteed playing at Arsenal. Because Coutinho has the same position as Odegaard and Emile Smith Rowe who this season has been very bright.
Meanwhile, if Coutinho chooses Aston Villa, which is planning to also make Coutinho permanent, at Aston Villa it is possible that Coutinho can
get guaranteed play, because at Aston Villa Coutinho does not have many competitors. We'll see where Coutinho will choose, for sure Arsenal should
focus more on finding a striker, which is a position that Arsenal really need. Hopefully next season Arsenal can get a quality and productive striker.
Matter of thinking, even if everything is right and Philippe Coutinho does decide to play for Arsenal the main problem is going to be the part where they discuss the importance of him in the squad.
I think that he is obviously going to want to be an important or crucial player for the squad but Arsenal might not want that because you know, at the moment Arsenal wants a rotation player. And, I don't think Philippe Coutinho will agree to that.
