It seems that Arne Slot is not satisfied with the strength of the current squad, Liverpool is reportedly ready to submit a £50 million offer to Atalanta to recruit Charles De Ketelaere in the upcoming summer transfer market. His impressive performances with Atalanta have attracted interest from top European clubs, Liverpool keen to take the lead in the hunt for the young Belgian. If a deal is reached, De Ketelaere is expected to strengthen Liverpool attack next season.

Is Liverpool crazy? this guy didn't perform when he played for Milan, 40 appearances 0 goal, this is unbelievable. Yeah we see his performance is keep improving especially this season, but who knows if he's just one season wonder? Nunez also like that, his last season with Benfica was very wonderful, now we see he can't perform in Liverpool in 3 seasons.

Liverpool is not crazy. I believe Arne Slot knows something we didn't. I can't really judge Ketelaere's performance's good or bad, but rather than average to me, but he has potential. This pretty much the same like Sancho's case, he's played averagely at United, but far better when he did it at Dortmund and now Chelsea.

I can't even compare Ketelaere to the Nunez as they have different potential. Ketelaere looks so average now, but who knows Arne can dig his true potential. You forgot to mention he has good stats as UCL.

Lastly, Ketelaere was crap on Milan, but he did it far better at Atalanta. It means player's confidence does big impact to his performance.

Your statement can't negate the fact that if Manchester United very often conceded goals in any games. This proves that how Amorim has not successfully reassembled his club's defensive line. I'm saying based on the statistic. If you didn't believe it, you can look at how many goals United conceded under Amorim.

That's why he has put more focus on their defensive line. I don't even see the depth on their defense now. I said based on the data.

If based on facts then the latest fact if you watch Man United against Tottenham how ineffective the attack line is and still need a striker. I will not deny that they need additional defenders but with the option of additional strikers it would be much better. Every recruitment is certainly based on needs, right?

I think manager Ruben Amorim wants Swedish forward Gyökeres, who he played with before, to join the team. If he brings him to the team, I am sure he can play his best game with a forward who understands him well in the forward area. Or if the Osimhen transfer happens, we can talk about a strong attacking side for Manchester United. They did not play badly in the Tottenham match, but it could be better. The manager will probably complete this next year. Manchester United should be a competitive team in the Premier League next year.

It will not be an easy battle for Liverpool to get the signature of Charles De Ketelaere because many clubs are interested in him. There are indications that many clubs in the premiership which include, West Ham, Aston Villa, Tottenham, Newcastle United, Manchester City and Arsenal have shown interest in the versatile Belgian player. West Ham sees him as a viable replacement for Mohammed Kudus who might leave the club in January.

I don't know if Atlanta will be willing to let him go because he has contributed immensely to the club. The 23-year-old player is valued at about £40m, maybe Atalanta might decide to keep him because they have many competitions to play so they need enough players.

Barcelona finances are in a difficult condition at the moment even inevitably still barcelona must sell some players in the transfer market later, in addition to stabilising their finances, selling players will also reduce the salary burden and also make it possible for barcelona to register dani olmo and pau victor the second time to the la liga authorities later, Indeed, so far Hansi Flick has found the right starting eleven for the Barcelona squad, but I think selling de Jong and some other players you cause will certainly have an impact on Barcelona, because like we know that currently Barcelona has limited squad depth and makes Hansi Flick have few options to rotate his squad.

Yes, and while I agree that they do not have enough great players to sell some, they will eventually have to do it. I said it before, I will say it again; selling players like Yamal, Balde, Cubarsi would equal to them selling their future and hurt them a lot but also could fix all of this financial issues in a single day. They could raise as much as 150 million euros from those three players alone, not need anything else just those three players and suddenly they would be out of trouble fully. They could just get free agent players instead, would be worse, but they would not have any financial problem left at all.

Moreover, they could get rid of big salaries like Frankie and Araujo this summer, either they will sign back for cheaper or not sign at all. Combine these together and suddenly we are talking about Barcelona being back at green and not have these issues. I understand they won't be as good of a team that way, but they can rebuild afterwards.

The entire team needs to be rebuilt not just attack and defence. Even Onana at goal makes a lot of mistakes. They should build their team around Amad and Bruno because they are the only bright thing in this team. Other players need to be replaced but i wonder how much they can do in the winter transfer window

I'm sure there won't be much United can get in the winter transfer market. He'll get rid of some and bring in some. Although Amorim may have a list of players he wants. Not all of them will be available to United.
As you said, Amorim may have to get a new goalkeeper too. Who of course has better qualities. Onana has made many mistakes since Ten Hag's season in charge. I'm sure Amorim will have to think about getting a better replacement.

I agree that Leao might be a better option for Manchester United than Lookman. The two are good players but Leao proved himself in AC Milan many times and could adapt perfectly. I have some worries that Lookman will be the new Victor Osimhen, he needs to learn from his Nigerian teammate who was once, one of the best players in a season then he faded.

Why are you comparing the both players when they play differently and play for different teams at the club level. And even when they play in the national team, everyone does their job perfectly well. It doesn’t mean what happened to Osimehn will also happen to him. Lookman is a great player and not has he only proved it last season but also on the verge of it also this season. If given the opportunity to play for Manchester United, I am sure he will do well just like I also believe in Leao to be a good player for Manchester United when he’s signed. They play from same position and if they pick any of them will really help them in the forward position, I don’t see anything wrong in any of this two players if they want to go for them.

These players are often over hyped by the Manchester United fans and then they think they are better than how they actually perform base on consistency. You cab see the chants of Amad Diallo, saying he is from Ivory Coast and better than Drogba and the Toure bros, https://youtu.be/U2lyOdKdatA?si=Fe17C179SfXQlUCX .

Someone who is just getting his career started is being compared with legends like Drogba and Toure bros, it's really shameful.

I don't think that players are often over hyped by Manchester United fans. And as for the Amad Diallo, I think it’s just a motivational chant to give him the necessary morale boost. I do not think the fans meant it in a disrespectful way or really implying he is better than Drogba, Kolo Toure or Yaya Toure.

I think it is somehow overhype and to be honest it doesn't seems totally as motivational chant, in fact that, that chant has a tendency of making him feel pressurized when things may not be working well for him and we may see something of such in the later time, since it's sometime understandable for youngsters not to underperform in some games.

Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho were once overhype, although majority of the fans don't really rate Rashford anymore as before thanks to the his inconsistency and he has not really try to improve his game while Garnacho still has a much better chance of getting the love he had before, if he do try to improve himself and get better rather than opt for leaving United.

It seems that what will be taken into consideration is not only how well they score goals or making assists, but Ruben Amorim seems to prefer players who are not reluctant to chase the ball and help in defense, and it is for that reason that Marcus Rashford was sidelined by him. So who between Lookman and Rafael Leao do you think has that criteria?

It is not yet clear which player Amorin needs whether Lookman or Leao because both of these good players will be a heavy consideration perhaps for Amorin.
Can Man United buy this player in the winter or summer?
If summer is too long while this team needs the players Amorin wants.
How much is the offer for Lookman and Leao?

Well, until now I also can't see what kind of players Amorim wants with Manchester United at this time. In terms of game patterns, I can see a little bit of the big picture of what kind of game pattern Amorim wants to implement, but for players, now he is still looking for players who really fit his game pattern. Maybe in the next transfer window we will start to see which players he wants, at least we can see that from the player recruitment he does. Currently he only uses players from the previous Manchester United coach, so he always rotates to find players who can implement his strategy well.

Leao and Lookman are both great options honestly. Amorim is targeting to replace Rashford by getting rid of him as soon as possible. This would probably happen next summer rather than in the middle of the season I assume.

Leao's market value is 75 million euros while Lookman's is 55 million. However I really have no idea about how their teams would ask for these players. Sad

I believe Leao would surely be much more expensive.

I think both of them can be really helpful for the Red Devils. I like Leao's physical advantage really a lot. But Lookman is also a great finisher. Let's see... There is still a Nico Williams rumour too.

What's wrong with Osimhen? Osimhen is still a top player, he only had a fallout with his team and Lookman isn't having that problem. Moreover Napoli and Atalanta do businesses in different ways. Napoli is a difficult club, but Atalanta won't do that to Lookman.
Lookman has worked for Atalanta so I don't think they'll make things difficult for him to leave.
Osimhen hasn't faded, he's just playing in a lower team and league and despite that he's still playing top football. Lookman is a good player and he deserves to be in a bigger team like Arsenal. Not like he can't succeed in another team but Arsenal fits his profile.

Ketelaere is a good player. He performed extraordinarily with his current team. He's very impressive among all of the best players who have five goals involvements in one UCL match. This shows that how high his quality as a football player.

I wonder how much Atalanta will value him. I expect they to put around 50m - 70m for him. That price looks reasonable price considering he's still quite young and very talented. That's pretty interesting to see how it goes. It seems this plan is gonna be executed in the summer window, not winter i guess.

If I remember correctly, the last team that was interested in De Jong some few months back was Manchester United under Erik Ten Hag, but with injuries and no game time I honestly see him signing because if he doesn't a much smaller team would be interested in his services and his not that type that wants to play for such teams Tongue

And Btw I thought he said he wanted to retire at Barca so this contract extension shouldn't be much to worry about because he will ink it.

The transfer targets of Manchester United when Erik ten Hag was in charge of the club is different from their targets now that Ruben Amorim have taken over the managerial position of the club. Frenkie De Jong is without doubt a talented player but his constant injuries is the reason why I don't think the top clubs in Europe will be approaching Barcelona for his services and the fact that he's currently the highest paid player in Spain is the reason why I don't think they'll be getting top suitors for the Dutchman.
If Barcelona offers him a new contract, then I think he should accept it immediately.

The decision of Man United Manager regarding these 2 players is quite clear that Garnacho can still return to the main squad while Rashford cannot. In my opinion this is a brave move because no Man United management has done that to Rashford even in the Ten Hag era. For Garnacho, he still has a chance and can be relied on as long as he fulfills Ruben Amorim wishes. The competition for a main place at Man United is in the race so if Garnacho still wants to stay at United then he must fight but if he gives up then his name is on the transfer market list ready to be sold.

Amorim says that Rashford has a future at Manchester United, and he decides who gets into the squad for the game, at the training. But it seems to me that the relationship is already spoiled between them, perhaps Rashford is simply not interested in working with Amorim, and this is also very important, because if he is not comfortable with this coach, then he will not want to stay in the team. Several teams from Saudi Arabia are already interested in him, so perhaps he will soon leave the team, at least he has been out of the game for the last few matches.

De Jong is one of the talented players but injuries and also lack of playing time have made his performance decline at this time, reportedly de Jong and several other players are on sell list from barcelona in the transfer market later, this is done to balance their finances and also to reduce the burden of salaries that are too high at this time, so far de Jong does have extraordinary commitment and loyalty to Barcelona, but inevitably Barcelona must sell him in order to also be able to register Dani Olmo with the La Liga authorities later, although he wants to retire at Barcelona but I think that the contract extension will no longer be given.

Alejandro Garnacho is an Argentinian star and he is currently performing for Manchester United but there are rumors that he may move from Manchester United to Atletico Madrid. With many media reporting such news, it seems likely that this will happen.
As Manchester United have a new manager in charge, we could see a lot of changes in the squad in the upcoming transfer window.
This manager is very skilled and he knows how to manage the team and since he took charge of Manchester United he may have decided which players will stay at Manchester United and which players he will sell from Manchester United. If Alejandro Garnacho is on the sale list, he must find a new destination.

Well Manchester united are in the same stage as when Eric ten hag first came and handled the club, there were so many decisions to make and a lot of reshuffling to go and unfortunately for Eric, I think most of the changes he made to club was irrelevant and all based on his inability to have a mutual relationship between player and coach. I really don't know where Ruben amorim stand with his new reshuffling of players but am certain that united losing gernacho is definitely a big blow although the club now is fluctuating but the boy has proven his worth more than enough on various occasions.

Lookman is the African Player of the Year and he has also won a trophy for it, but when it comes to the speed of adapting to a new team with a very different League, of course Leao is better than Lookman in that regard. But the conditions will still be very different when a player who is used to the Italian League moves to the English League which is quite competitive and the tension of the game is quite tight and quite fast. So maybe Manchester United are looking at other things than that so they start to look at Lookman more than a player like Leao even though Leao is also a very good player and also suitable to be recruited by a team like Manchester United.
