Yes, exactly and PSG could not win the Champions League in spite of having a lot of great players in the squad. Moreover, they got beaten by a team where squad consists of older players. It was really a shame for all the great players that played in PSG. PSG just stacked the team but they did not make good enough plans for the players to execute and paid the price for it.

This would be a typical FC Bayern transfer: After strong play of Mohamed Camara against FC Bayern in the Champions League, FC Bayern is interested in signing the 22-year-old midfielder. Camara's current market value is about €23m according to transfermarket.com.

Nevertheless, Atlético Madrid and Borussia Dortmund are also interested in signing him. A real transfer race could develop here.



With a probability of 42%, a transfer to Atletico is currently the highest according to transfermarket.com. What do you guys think?

Based on today's result, I can assume that Mbappe needs Real Madrid no less than Real Madrid needs him (and maybe more). Still, PSG did not become a top club that can provide the player with "greatness" and a gold note in history. Those results that PSG shows are more likely to harm the player's reputation. Even if PSG achieve victory in the Champions League, the trail of ridiculous weak-willed defeats of previous seasons will not go anywhere. Whereas Real Madrid has the exact opposite aura - it's a club that makes the impossible possible.

It's very difficult to bring these two wonderkids together because of course it costs a lot of money in their salaries and Madrid will have to cut some players and that will be very difficult in my opinion but indeed one is enough for them and now Mbappe is the player they are often compared to. them and leave Haaland to the others because it's going to be a lot of fun now.

Agree, Messi will be very difficult to come back because his salary is quite large in my opinion and Barcelona are also currently still in a financial disadvantage

If that's the case then I think Arteta is thinking of maybe change in formation in next season. We already have Odegaard perfect in central attacking midfielder position. Maybe he is thinking of deploying another central attacking midfielder in that case? If that's true then we will have one central defensive midfielder which will be either Xhaka or Partey filling in the role. Honestly seems unnecessary move. Coutinho is great but last thing we want is to add another addition to the bench. Also Coutinho is playing his role perfectly at Villa and Gerrard has heaped praises on couple of occassions so I think it is very likely that Villa might swoop him in triggering the buy option.

Speculation about Kylian Mbappe's future will never dim. Mbappe has always been linked with Real Madrid, and indeed Real Madrid has great potential to be able to sign Mbappe. But because Mbappe is still a PSG player, there are rumors that Mbappe will stay at PSG, especially if PSG can sign Zidane as their new manager.

No one knows what Mbappe is thinking and why until now he has not made a decision regarding his future, but I think he will prefer to join Real Madrid because it was one of his dreams and he has a chance to make it happen.

I have heard about this news too but it looks like just a rumour for now. Because I still haven't seen any official statement from the Chelsea or Juventus side yet. And if it turns out to be true, then I will be surprised too honestly. Because there have been some other big clubs having him on their radars also. Real Madrid have been seriously interested in him. But maybe Juventus finished this deal by preventing it from being heard by many people. Then, I guess the other interested teams would be sad to lose a chance to sign a great defender like Rüdiger.

Arsenal make Coutinho decision
Arsenal are exploring the possibilty of making a move for Philippe Coutinho after his loan spell with Aston Villa comes to an end.

According to Sport, the Gunners are considering swooping for his services should the Villans elect not to activate their £33m option in their deal.

Coutinho is no ordinary player and i dont think Villa will let this opportunity pass them to buy a good player for cheap.... But then again if he didnt meet their expectations I see Arsenal taking him given the opportunity to buy.

An uplifting news for Kylian Mbappe and his well wishers. Kylian Mbappe is set to receive of around €80m on his signing as a quick impact after his joining at Real Madrid. Definitely he's very much worthy the money as he's presently the main player with full of hype. That's a lot of money for this young lad, and certainly will receive more upon his performance. we'll see either Kylian Mbappe put a similar execution at Real Madrid as he used to offer his current French club PSG.

Transfer rumours:

Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba, 29, is back on Barcelona's radar after the Spanish club signed a lucrative sponsorship deal. The 29-year-old France international will be a free agent when his contact with the Old Trafford club ends in the summer. Will this long-running saga around Pogba really end that way?
Germany centre-back Antonio Rudiger, whose contract at Chelsea runs out in the summer, has agreed to join Juventus on a four-year contract. Good job for Juve. Is this the beginning of the exodus of players from Chelsea?
Juventus are to target a move for Manchester City's Brazil striker Gabriel Jesus, 24, if the English side manage to sign Norway striker Erling Braut Haaland, 21, from Borussia Dortmund. Another good job for Juve if it comes true.
Newcastle United are interested in signing 30-year-old Brazil forward Neymar, who has a deal with Paris St-Germain that runs until 2025. Newcastle obviously has very big plans with the new owners. How realistic it is around Neymar to create a new team that will win trophies in the coming years?
Barcelona coach Xavi says former team-mate Lionel Messi, 34, will "always be welcome" at the Nou Camp club. Argentina forward Messi left the La Liga side to join PSG last summer. Is the great return of the prodigal son imminent?

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.

Agree with what you said, Salah's performance at Liverpool was really very good and it would be a shame if he was let go. Likewise for Salah, his performance was getting better when he was at Liverpool and indeed when he changed clubs this could be something different and could make his career dim due to mismatches later.
hopefully this will be over soon and his contract talks at Liverpool go well because otherwise this will be detrimental to both parties

Dembele is in a top form already although, I don't like the talks of Messi returning.
Anyways I'm.not the board of directors to take this decision, if he comes back, he's wages should be way lower than it is currently.
Truth be told, he is having a bad stay in Paris saint Germany, that team doesn't suit him.
Take a good look at Sergio Ramos also, indeed a farmers league.

If it was just one year contract then I would totally see this happening. But they made a 2 years contract with him, first year is now getting close to being over, and then second season will have to be played. After that maybe they will have some sort of deal where he leaves and PSG would be fine with that, even if nothing else they made a ton of jersey sales and earned enough money to be fine with him leaving.

At the end of the day, Barcelona will want Messi to retire there, not going to be easy of course but even if he is 35-36 years old, they will want him to play some games on his last seasons before he retires. So, this may not happen during this summer, but I am sure they will want to make this happen eventually.

I hope that Salah and Liverpool can find the middle way in this contract talks. Salah is a crucial player and should never be lost by Liverpool for some more years. He has proven so many times that he can be very productive and beneficial for the team for more years too. He is one of the best footballers already now and he deserves a solid contract too. But Liverpool must be wishing his demands to be lowered a little more. And as there is still time and no need to rush things, I hope they will extend his contract sooner or later.

For PSG I'm not sure either, they already have too many great players, defeat in the Champions League must be a blow  on the contrary I think PSG will sell some players
Like I said Pogba might be closer to Serie A basically between the top 4 teams like Inter who are deadlocked in attack or Juventus who lost at home while Milan might be interested if they win the league.

I agree the problem is that Barcelona must be having a hard time with Pogba's high salary demands, because we know Barcelona is still experiencing
a financial crisis and they must be wise in giving salaries to their players. Even Aubameyang who recently joined Barcelona lowered his salary compared
to what he got at Arsenal. Unless Pogba is willing to lower his salary too, but I doubt Pogba will do that, considering that there are still quite a lot of
other big teams that are able to provide the salary that Pogba wants. So it is very unlikely that Pogba will join Barcelona. I predict Pogba will move
to Juventus or PSG, both teams were able to give Pogba the salary he wanted.

Barcelona still has not enough money to pay Pogba's salary. Another problem, Pogba's play of style is quite different from Barcelona midfielders have. Adding Pogba to the Barcelona squad may result in a disharmonious playing style, Xavi won't let this happens. Anyway, Barcelona has many young midfielders who have great talents. What for buying more midfielders? It only wastes money.

And which team will Messi be in next season? I understand that he would dream of returning back to Barcelona, but firstly Xavi has already begun to build a team on new principles, and secondly the president of La Liga has already said that Barcelona barely fits into the Procrustean bed of the new rules of financial fair play and an old player with, to put it mildly, large financial appetites is unlikely to need Barcelona for this moment in time. Messi's departure was a big loss for Barcelona at the time, but now it's not worth stirring up the past and again making the club dependent on the game of one player.

The problem is, if Barcelona collect some great players of course the salary demands are also high and this does not match the rules in laliga like their last case
Based on the reasons above, it is unlikely that Pogba will move to Barcelona unless Barcelona sell some players in the next transfer window to get balance
I personally see Pogba more likely to move to Serie A Inter, Milan or Juventus may be interested.
