This is really interesting news if it is true of course. Because Barcelona have an aim to reach an agreement with Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes. But they won't start their attempts to sign him already now. It looks like they are going to go after Erling Haaland first. If they fail in signing Erling Haaland, then they are going to go for Bruno Fernandes. I know that these players are playing in different positions. But the reason here should be about their finance. In the end, they will have to spend a great deal of money to be able to sign Erling Haaland.

Manchester United has reportedly made several offers of a new contract to Pogba. However, until now Pogba has not received an offer from
Man United, it seems that Pogba is not interested in staying at Man United. I understand the possibility that Pogba will definitely look for another
club that  performs better than Man United, and also Pogba can find a club that is willing to pay a high salary. Man United also seems to be preparing
to lose Pogba, According to a report from Calciomercato, Man United have started targeting Sergej Milinkovic-Savic as a replacement for Pogba.
If we look at the Lazio midfielder's performance, indeed his appearance is very good with Lazio, his playing ability is also not much different from
Pogba. After all Lazio did not mind selling Milinkovic-Savic to Man United, the problem Lazio is asking 80 million Euros to get Milinkovic-Savic,
which is considered too expensive according to Man United's management. It seems that in the near future Man United will try to negotiate
the purchase of Milinkovic-Savic.

According to a report from The Sun, Mikel Arteta is serious about bringing Dusan Vlahovic to Arsenal this January to strengthen Arsenal's front line.
Because so far the performances of Aubameyang and Lacazette have not made a good contribution to Arsenal, therefore Arsenal need Vlahovic
who is considered to be able to help Arsenal win the Champions League ticket. But Arsenal don't have enough funds to be able to buy Vlahovic,
which Fiorentina charge 90 million Euros for any club that wants to sign Vlahovic. After all Arsenal are also not the only team that wants Vlahovic,
there are several other Premier League teams who are interested in buying Vlahovic. It will be very interesting to see which team will succeed in
getting Vlahovic.

I don't think that Pogba will accept the contract UTD offered. He should already know that RMA are eager to sign him as the Real midfield trio are getting old and Pogba might be the best fit for them. If he can ensure that he will get regular first-team action in RMA, I think he will wait out his current contract to expire and then RMA can sign him for free.

Yeah, this is happening more and more often - especially after Covid reduced the transfer budgets of most clubs. Players simply wait for their contract to expire and then demand a bonus fee for choosing a new club.
The new clubs gladly pay it because it costs them less than it would cost for a transfer to happen if a player was still under contract and of course that the players like it more when they get the money instead of their clubs.

Regarding Pogba - I still feel he will extend with United. They are the ones currently ready to overpay once again.

If CR7 wants to leave, it might be because UTD are performing poorly and we know that he always wants to win.

Maybe MLS could be an option for him? I think that Real might be the perfect place for Haaland. And if not RMA, then City. As City really needs a lethal pure striker.

I think that Bruno should not go to Barca as it might be the downfall for him. Because Barca right now are not in a good spot and he is playing really well with UTD.
I think signing Traore for Dembele would be a win for FCB as Dembele hardly gets to play any match because of injuries.

If you are Paul Pogba say for instance, will you still want to play for MUFC that is very unpredictable right now in performance, or will you want to secure your career and find opportunities else where?
I sincerely hope Arsenal can secure signature of Serbia's Dusan Vlahovic who has been clinical in front of goal lately for his Italian Serie A club Fiorentina. He will be such a great addition to the team, we also need a midfielder as well.

I think that's what Pogba wants. If he were on a free transfer, he could demand a much higher hand money in contract negotiations with his new club. It was similar with David Alaba, for example. He had rejected contract offers from Bayern again and again for a long time and gained time until Bayern could no longer sell him with a transfer fee. In the end, he moved to Real Madrid last season without a transfer fee and got a big hand money from his new employer.

Transfer rumours:

Cristiano Ronaldo's agent Jorge Mendes has flown to England for a crisis meeting with the Manchester United forward as the 36-year-old considers his future at the club. Is that a sign that Ronaldo wants to leave Manchester United? If so, where could he go now, which club?
Borussia Dortmund and Norway striker Erling Braut Haaland believes that Manchester City will try to sign him in the summer transfer window after Manchester United pulled out of the race to recruit the 21-year-old. I think that Real, PSG and even Barcelona have not given up on Haaland and this story has not been decided yet.
Manchester United and Portugal midfielder Bruno Fernandes, 27, will become Barcelona's top target if they fail to sign Haaland in the summer. Does Barcelona have the finances to conclude this transfer?
Barcelona vice president Rafa Yuste says more players need to be sold before Spanish striker Ferran Torres, 21, can actually be registered at the Camp Nou after his move from Manchester City. Which players Barcelona will still have to sell?
Fiorentina and Serbia's highly-rated striker Dusan Vlahovic, 21, is prepared to wait until the summer to resolve his future and will not be rushed into a January move. A lot of clubs are interested in Vlahovic. Where he will eventually go?
Barcelona will target Wolves winger Adama Traore, 25, if French forward Ousmane Dembele, 24, decides against renewing his contract with the La Liga side, providing competition for Tottenham in their attempts to sign the Spaniard. Personally, it seems to me that it is time for Barcelona to try some new players, like Traora and forget about Dembele, an unrealized talent.

If I'm not wrong now, Manchester United have already offered a contract extension to Paul Pogba. But I'm having my doubts about if he will be accepting the deal or not. Because if Paul Pogba really wanted to play for Manchester United for more years, I assume that he would already have wanted an extension by himself. Or maybe he just waited for his team to make the offer, idk. But I hope that Manchester United can extend his contract otherwise they will lose an important amount of power. And if he leaves, I also would like to see him playing at Real Madrid.

Without get agreement both side between Pogba and Manchester United next window transfer opening Pogba become free transfer player and all club looks easy to get his sign's, I think most favorite club for Pogba is Real Madrid or back to old his club Juventus but have new rumors with PSG want to get Pogba service. I think most competitive club to get him and lets see which one his destination club keep stay in Manchester United or looking for new club, right now Pogba still injury and he has many option for new club next years and everything is possibility for him.

Paul Pogba plays really high level football.  A world-class ball-playing midfielder.  Being French may also be one of the reasons that strengthens the possibility of playing in France.  He can take his place in the legendary squad established by Psg.  Of course, there may be another option in Real Madrid.  Still, I think he could be more successful if he chose Psg.

We all know the technical and magical abilities of Coutinho and his experience in the English Premier league but he opted for Aston instead of Arsenal based on his relationship with Steven Gerard and also he saw the Arsenal side and how they’ve been recruiting only young bloods and how these young players are hungry to perform. They all want to play and impress the manager so they can keep their position. Coutinho does not seem that have that hunger again, maybe maybe he has won lot of silverwares and does not too much care about top performance. Also Arsenal have a player that plays the No.10 position in Martin Odegaard. The have also have hungry players on both Flanks in Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli and Smith Emile Rowe. They’ve been more productive as of recent and are always representing and proving their points when given the chance. Aston Villa does not seem to have a proper No.10 since the departure of Jack Grealish to Manchester city. So he can fill that void and create some magic for Steven Gerard.

Pogba agent, Mino Raiola has a good connection with Madrid Presiden, Perez. that possibly can make anything can change (Pogba go to Madrid if have deal with salary). So far, MU still wants Pogba to stay on old Trafford, I heard the news, MU has a plan to create a new contract to increase his salary be 480K Euro (up to 120 Euro) to make him stay. Because MU won't leave him with a free transfer in the next year. when it happens, Pogba is a player who has the highest salary in the premier league.

coutinho has made a good choice, with him moving to aston villa it is likely that coutinho's performance will improve again, moreover coutinho also played very long with steven gerrad, so they understand each other, steven gerrad also have additional ammunition in their squad, because if philips coutinho continues stay in barcelona most likely coutinho's career will be dim, I can't wait for coutinho's performance, hopefully coutinho can return to his best form..

Well im not saying zidane will never sign for manchester united nor pochettino situation is safe at psg.

just saying the two facts , that's all.
fully aware any possibility are wide open but for now let's talk in a realistic sense , erik ten hag leading the odds.

anyways ... newcastle seems really serious signing a player , trippier wont sign the contract if he's not being told about the club plan which it could be about building an english 'los galacticos'

next one :

auba
chamberlain

I think will happen for Pogba move to PSG depend with rumor they have close negotiation with Zidane to replace Pochettino, I think all player will happy if manager by Zidane but depend with how much salary giving by PSG, how ever still have chance for Pogba keep extended contract with Manchester United but I think Real Madrid is the best club as new challenge for Pogba, they have great tandem in Madrid as Benzema will guide Pogba for the best midfielder again.

PSG follows an interesting strategy, that of managing to sign several good players at zero cost.... like Lionel Messi, Sergio Ramos and Gianluigi Donnarumma, and now they want to repeat that feat with Pogba.
Instead of paying thousands of euros to buy a player, there is nothing better than reverting this investment in the player's salary.

But is this really his final destination? Because Real Madrid have also tried to sign the player a few times in the past, always bumping into the high amounts charged by the player. Even Barcelona, despite the financial crisis they are going through, was speculated as a possible fate for the French player.

Interesting offer made by PSG, a high salary and a chance to play in his country. I'm sure Paul Pogba will consider this offer, but I think he prefers to join Real Madrid if he more cares about his career. Joining PSG can make him earn a bigger amount of money, but the chance to win prestige titles will be more open in Real Madrid. Most football players dream to play in Real Madrid because this team is well known as the king of UCL title. That title is the highest title in football competition.

If you lose Modric, it will be very difficult to catch. That guy has been playing for Madrid for a really long time, I've heard Ronaldo say he always wanted to play with Modrid. He doesn't just say that. Real Madrid is a club with money, a logical replacement would be Paul Pogba, provided United agrees. modric was also footballer of the year few years ago.

Franck Kessie's contract will expire at the end of this season and AC Milan is not able to provide the salary that Kessie wants. So the possibility of
Kessie leaving AC Milan is very large, actually very many big clubs want Kessie. But surprisingly it was Real Madrid who started the move first,
Real Madrid reportedly sent their envoys to AC Milan to immediately get Kessie's signature. The reason Real Madrid did this, because Real Madrid
do need a replacement for Toni Kroos and Luka Modric who are already old. So Real Madrid must prepare a replacement from now on, and it seems
that seeing Kessie's excellent game at AC Milan makes Real Madrid very interested in signing Kessie. I believe Kessie will make a big contribution
to Real Madrid. Moreover, Real Madrid was able to get Kessie for free because his contract expired, this is a very good decision made by Real Madrid.
