Marca is claiming that Barcelona are getting close to the end for the Franck Kessie transfer now. They are nearly winning the race to sign him now but he is still a target for some big clubs like Liverpool too now. Whatever club sign him, they will be profitable as they are only offering a contract to him and not paying any transfer fee. Kessie seems like he will most probably leave the team by not extending his current contract which ends this summer. And this might be a good choice for him but he should go to a club that he can play in the starting eleven most of the time.

https://www.marca.com/en/football/barcelona/2022/02/10/6205510222601dc3508b45e5.html

Here in Italy they are saying Kessie wants to stay in Italy so they are speculating about Juventus and Inter if he will leave Milan.

Kessie for sure is a good player but he demands 7m/y+taxes, and at his age for me is a pass.

Pique is the most important player in Barcelona defense right now.

Except for his experience. He is hardly the most significant player in Barcelona defense right now. The body Physique has let him down where he now has to watch opponents score goals for fun while seated and can't do much about it.

Quote from: judas on February 11, 2022, 03:51:12 PM

If he retires, then Barcelona will have to fill his place with another great defender like him.

It's better he retires soonest if he wants to save his legacy at the club, otherwise more embarrassing moments are waiting for him in La Liga.

The rise and fall of a club achievements is a natural thing in my opinion, as is the case with Barcelona today which has changed from a great club to a mediocre club that is no longer feared on the European continent, but I think Pique decision to retire has nothing to do with Barcelona current achievements, this is because if he is really disappointed with Barcelona performance it is certainly better for him to find another better club now, I think Pique desire to retire cannot be separated from his old age (35 years), I think maybe he has realized at 35 years old that it will be very difficult to maintain his playing form when competing with younger players.

I would guess that Pique realized he is way too old to matter in the rebuilding of Barcelona and he could retire and just enjoy the tens of millions of dollars he made from football and relax. Could they actually make a comeback with off-season transfers and be great next year? Of course they can, this is Barcelona we are talking about but it would not be like an UCL winner type of level and it would not be any big help from Pique that takes them there.

So, it is wise for him to stop right now, that much I can say. Barcelona is not great today, that is known but Xavi is a great manager by the looks of it and his transfers were amazing as well, I am guessing they will get better and better over time.

It's possible Pique will retire after the 2021 season. Having been there for years, that man has simply done his job. It will be up to time whether he takes it seriously or not? I respect him greatly and if this is true, it is a wise decision on his part. Unfortunately, Barca still has no replacement for him. Is he obligated to remain at the Camp Nou until 2024, after reconsidering his decision?

Pique is the most important player in Barcelona defense right now. If he retires, then Barcelona will have to fill his place with another great defender like him. And it won't be easy considering their current financial condition into account. Maybe they could make a contract offer to Antonio Rudiger and this would be a very great deal for them. Because Rudiger is one of the best defenders now and he is looking for a change seemingly. However, there are other big clubs in line also which might decrease the chances of Barcelona to get him.

He is 35 years old and of course if he ends his career it will not be a surprise for anyone. He does not play in a position where you can "save" strength and join the game when it suits you. He has already won everything he could and it would be quite reasonable to leave after this season. I find it unpleasant to leave when "it's late" and everyone sees that your skills have already fallen below an acceptable level.

I really don't know about this but that way I see it he can do two things which are

1. He can play this season or maybe the next one then retire being a player of Barcelona
2. If he wants to play the game out of love and fashion then he can move to a smaller club and maybe have a quite good 2 or 3 years in that club.

But, as he is much aged it would be quite reasonable if Gerard Piqué actually retires.

I don't think the second option is possible. He is not a midfield player where you can be creative while still playing at a comfortable pace. The rhythm of the defender's "strain" is determined by the opponent, so the physical form is extremely important here. I don't think it's a good idea to go to a small club and be torn apart by big clubs who won't miss an opportunity to score from a weak spot.

A few hours ago Douglas Costa was officially signed by LA Galaxy on loan until the end of the season and a two-year contract plan after borrowing him for six months.
Actually I really like the game he showed but last season he couldn't do much until he had to be loaned to Gremio and even there he couldn't do much.
Douglas' performance declined drastically, especially after the Juventus jersey. I think moving to MLS could be better for Douglas than having his future unclear at

The problem of Douglas has always been the injuries.
He is Injury-prone otherwise in his carrier he was easily a 100m € player.

Sadly his muscles are like crystal, a little touch, and they are broken.

He is getting old and so he wasn't that much of use for Juventus. MLS should be good for Douglas Costa as lot of players who have gotten old have quite some success there. Take Nani, Zlatan, Rooney, Beckham...and more. Its a very good destination for old players to make a mark and prove that they still can perform. Douglas is a good player and I am not sure why they are not using him but hope he gets good amount of playing minute in MLS to prove himself.

If Bayern is selling Lewandovski - that could mean that they are joining the race for Haaland.

The rumor of Bayern joining the race to sign Haaland isn't a new one. We already heard this rumor since the last year and Lewa wants to move because of that rumor. Basically, Bayern has a big chance to sign Haaland if they have enough money to pay the transfer fees. Bayern and Dortmund have a good history in terms of player transfers, now it depends on the agreement about transfer fees and Haaland's intention only. If Bayern can ensure Haaland has a bright future by joining them and Bayern agrees with Haaland's costs, Haaland probably joins Bayern next season.

For me that is a rumor that would absolutely make sense for several reasons. First of all there are rumors for many years now about Lewandowski, that he wants to leave Bayern to play in England or in the spanish Primera division. So far bayern could always convince him to stay at Bayern because they offered him more and more money with every new contract and i think he is now earning more than 20 Million € per season. If Bayern has a chance of getting Haaland and if they want to sign him, then the timing could be perfect after this season. Haaland has a clause in his contract that he can leave after this season for a fee of around 75 M € and Bayern would probably still get around 20-30 M€ for Lewandowski if they sell them after this season because he has a contract until 2023.

I know that there have been many speculations going on about this transfer of Erling Haaland but as a football fan, I really think that he should move to the premier league.
Because there is absolutely no point in stacking more good players in one team, Bayern Munich. Real Madrid also is a valid option for him. Let's see what happens in the future.
And I didn't see them to spend much, so absolutely they have the capability to make Haaland agree & bear the the transfer fees.

Antonio Rudiger confirmed that he will go to Bayern next season and Chelsea aiming new players as the replacement of him and the latest rumour is Chelsea attempts to buy Barcelona player Ronald Araujo because their coach was impressed with his performance while playing for Barcelona and also this player good for long term because still categorized as potential young player

I am pretty sure that he will be doing them a lot of help. Not like Bayern is a bad team and with Rudiger suddenly they will be better, but who would say no to a defender like him? I feel like Bayern is getting away with murder here, it is cheap and it is a great defender and it is going to help them so much. I believe that they should definitely be focusing a bit more on the offensive side as well.

Lewa is great and all but dude is 34 years old, I do not think that they could keep relying on him every season, eventually they are going to need someone younger, and Bayern seems to be ignoring that. Haaland could be too expensive, but at the very least someone who could be great needs to be bought.

^ This is something of Bayern Munich I really like. They always find their way to make smart transfers or the transfers that are really favorable for them. And of course, we can say that Lewandowski is 34 years old but that 34 years old is absolutely cracked at football, my friend.

But the need for a younger striker is undeniably true. I would really like to see Bayern Munich spend some on the striker. Time to spend those money they are getting every season Grin

If this is really true then Real Madrid is thinking about the future really well and I appreciate this type of thinking. And I also think that for both the players, Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappé are going to do really well in Real Madrid and the play style of Real Madrid will also suit these two players far better.
But it's all about the future and obviously, no one knows for sure what is going to happen. But there is no doubt this move can be Really well for real Madrid.

But I read in some local media that Mbappe is still not sure about going to Madrid next season even though he has confirmed will leave on a free transfer. If Mbappe doesn't come to Madrid, his decision to end his contract with PSG is a mystery. Indeed, most media believe that Madrid is the next club for him. However, before there is an official decision and announcement from Mbappe, it will be an interesting process to look forward to next season.

If Real Madrid transfers Mbappe, he will make one of the best transfers he has made in recent years. Mbappe will be the new star of world football. Especially considering that Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi will retire soon, Mbappe, Haaland and Vlahovic will remain the best players in the world as offensive power. If they can get Haaland and Mbappe they will be really hard to stop.

I don’t think Real Madrid can get both the player’s in one transfer window unless they sell few of their player’s, because both will command huge wages plus agent fees. Lastly in near future if Real Madrid can pair the three then it would be one of the best forward lineup for year’s to come, and of course it’s not that simple but Real Madrid is known to buy stars so maybe this dream link up will happen some time in the future.

There are some rumors that Real will focus on Mbappe this year and they will suggest Haaland and his agents that he stay in Dortmund for another year and then join Real next year.
I think that in a scenario like this, Real could bring both top players to the club and create a new football dynasty that will rule European football for a long time.
Of course, PSG and Manchester City will also fight for both players, but I think for PSG a big handicap is the unattractiveness of the French league and it seems to me that if Real brings Mbappe this year, they will have much better arguments and a chance to bring Haaland next year.

If this is really true then Real Madrid is thinking about the future really well and I appreciate this type of thinking. And I also think that for both the players, Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappé are going to do really well in Real Madrid and the play style of Real Madrid will also suit these two players far better.
