I think there will be serious problems in a few years with the big clubs that don't have an ultra rich financial background. Juventus makes 209.9 million euros loss...120 million more than the season before, that's crazy. Barcelona made losses of 481 million euros last season, with debts rising to 1.35 billion euros.

It is said that Chelsea striker Timo Werner is going to be one of Dortmund's targets for the centre-forward position in case Erling Haaland leaves the club next summer. Timo Werner still hasn't adapted to the EPL and the team also. He still hasn't gained his self-confidence to be able to score many goals also. He was too much better in the Bundesliga at Leipzig before. So, he may get his old performance back if he comes back to the Bundesliga I think.
This is funny news Timo is very important to Tuchel, he might not have been scoring the amount of goals as expected but his presence and runs within the box makes way to other attackers. Chelsea are building a strong side to compete and win the league, they were interested in Halaand except Dortmund want him as part of the deal.

But I think that he should start playing like always as soon as possible. He is not a forward to just make runs and open spaces for his teammates. As you know, he had a great time at Leipzig before coming here. His scoring many goals was the biggest reason that Chelsea signed him. He scored 34 goals in total in the 19/20 season.

According to Independent, Manchester United have made 22-year-old West Ham defensive midfielder Declan Rice their top priority for the next summer. They were interested in signing him in the last transfer window actually. But West Ham had a £100m price tag for him which was really huge. And it even caused the player to get angry at his team for making things harder for his transfer there. Let's see if this transfer will happen this time.

But now the price is even higher, as they are asking for €120 million.
This amount is more than what City paid for Grealish (117.5 million).
In other words, it would be the most expensive transfer in the Premier League.

However, West Ham couldn't come to an agreement to renew the player's contract, so in fact they will have to sell and the price should go down I think.

Transfer rumours:

Manchester United have made West Ham's Declan Rice their top transfer priority next summer. The 22-year-old England midfielder is keen on a move to Old Trafford and was frustrated that the Hammers' £100m valuation priced him out of a move during the last transfer window. Is he an overrated player after all?
Barcelona will attempt to sign England forward Raheem Sterling, 26, on loan from Manchester City in January after failing with a bid to bring him to the Nou Camp during the summer. Given the great financial crisis of Barcelona, is this realistic?
Paul Pogba's agent Mino Raiola says the 28-year-old France midfielder could re-join Juventus when his Manchester United contract expires at the end of the season.
When will this perennial saga of Pogba finally end. This is already becoming a bad joke that is repeated every year  Grin
Inter Miami striker Gonzalo Higuain says the MLS club have ambitions to sign Argentina team-mate Lionel Messi when the 33-year-old forward's Paris St-Germain contract runs out in 2023. The question is whether Messi really has the desire to end his career in the American league?

The problem here is not the fact that they "can" spend a lot to get Lewa and then be a better team, the problem here is that they would be getting a player who is 34 years old and would be older next year and how many years would he play? This is the case for many players these days, players become great after 30 or near 30 and then teams start to pay a ton of money for players who are 30+ years old.

Look at Juventus, they got Ronaldo and didn't win much with him, it was a bad era with Ronaldo there, of course they made the money back easily because Ronaldo jersey sales alone worths more than what Ronaldo costs to the team, but still that wasn't a great transfer for them. All in all Lewa will be ever worse than that, get him for a lot of money, he will play well for a while, but he will get older and older and you would not be able to profit from him.

Every football team definitely wants to be the best and hopes to win many trophies, for that they must have plans and strategies, including signing new players. They buy players because they need them and it's part of their plan. It doesn't matter if he's old, young, expensive, or cheap, as long as the player fits the criteria they are looking for and they have the funds to do so, then they will try to sign him.

However, buying a player is also speculation because there is no guarantee that the player can make a change for the better, even for world-class players. So I think every football club must have thought about the consequences.

Raiola released an interview on Italian National television and we got a spoiler.

The interview will be released in the end of the week but the spoiler is "POGBA CAN COME BACK TO JUVENTUS".

It will be public in few days.

This season is likely Pogba's last season with Man United, because until now there has been no agreement on Pogba's contract to be extended.
Especially after Mino Raiola as Pogba's agent said that there was a high possibility that Pogba would return to Juventus. It's like leaking about
Pogba's future, but things can still change, we have to wait for official news regarding Pogba's future. Because not only Juventus are reportedly
interested in Paul Pogba, there is Real Madrid, one of the big teams who are often linked with Pogba. Interestingly Raiola also said he would meet
with Man United to discuss Pogba's contract. so it is not impossible that Pogba will extend his contract at Man United if an agreement is reached.
Let's just wait for the next news that will appear, but I don't think Man United should let Pogba go, because I see Pogba's contribution is quite large
for Man United.

It seems like there are many big clubs which are planning to sign Manchester United's 28-year-old midfielder Paul Pogba. He has only one year left on his contract. So, there are some clubs after him like Barcelona, Juventus, Real Madrid and PSG. Lately, Real Madrid seem like the most serious team about this transfer but things can change later. Pogba's decision will be really crucial. If he decides to stay, there will be no club left which are interested in signing him. Otherwise, Manchester United will have nothing to do to stop him about leaving.
.

I think he's going to complete his stay in Manchester United, Paul pogha is a talented player many clubs eyes are on him

you have a point. Big teams that do have good financial conditions will definitely try to reach their goals, even if they have to spend a lot of money for it. Of course, they already think that what they spend (sacrifice) will be worth it and they know if the result is not what they expected, I guess they were ready for it.

Football cannot be far from business, signing star players will also increase merchandising/apparel sales revenue, so there will always be profit and loss.

Robert Lewandowski is still expected to leave Bayern Munich in the next summer. And Real Madrid have been the most serious team that want to sign him. However, it looks like Liverpool are also in this race from now on. As they don't have a great centre-forward, they would make a great use of him in the Premier League. I strongly believe that Lewandowski can still play great in the other big leagues in Europe.
Lewandowski is now 33 years old, but his performance so far is quite good and in my opinion, Lewandowski's performance in scoring goals cannot be doubted, even though he is now a little old but Lewandowski managed to score 55 goals throughout 2019/2020, and 48 goals last season and this proves that he is one of the most productive strikers so far.

At the moment there seems to be no sign that Lewandowski will extend his contract at Bayern Munich and of course this is an advantage for other clubs who want to get Lewandowski in the 2022 summer transfer window, with Lewandowski remaining contract expiring on 30 June 2023, of course other clubs will be able to get Lewandowski at a cheaper transfer fee than his current market price, it looks like Liverpool is a strong candidate to be able to recruit Lewandowski later because the Liverpool coach worked with Lewandowski from 2010 to 2014 when he was still at Dortmund.

During his football career, Lewandowski only played in two different leagues so far, namely the Polish league and the German league, so before deciding to retire Lewandowski did have to seek new experiences in other leagues in Europe, and of course the English Premier League could be the right choice for him continue his career and considering the good relationship between Lewandowski and Klopp, Liverpool is certainly the right team for Lewandowski later.

Bale had to be sold two years ago to the Chinese club Jiangsu Suning, when the player agreed and emu was offered 22 million a year in salary at the club, but Florentino Perez then vetoed the transfer. And in these difficult times, it will be difficult to find a buyer for a football player, the more his contract seems to be already delayed in the next summer. It was from this period that the relationship between the club and the player deteriorated completely, completing the difficult relationship with Zidane, who, on the contrary, wanted to sell Bale. Therefore, the best option for Real Madrid will be to try to integrate Bale into the team game and earn their big salary, and not think about selling the player, especially with Ancelotti, Bale should not have antagonism.
this is a wise choice but bale's current performance is still less than expected with a salary of that size bale still can't make a contribution for madrid and even at madrid bale is still often seen on the bench rather than in the lineup.
maybe full confidence to play against him will be a spike for bale so that he can gain momentum and maximize his performance.
but we are talking real madrid indeed with a myriad of talented and quality players so it is very difficult for bale now to make full confidence apart from him changing his performance for the better.

Fresh reports say Juventus and Bayern Munich are starting a battle against each other for the striker Gabriel Jesus who is currently at Manchester City. With the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo, Juventus attacker players were criticized by its public, who demands fresh skilled players in this position. For that reason, one of the names the club most speculates is Gabriel Jesus who must leave his currently team to have more appearance possibilities on the field, what is hard right now in Manchester with so many star players around stealing the spotlight.

However, Juventus isn't the only interested one. Bayern will also try to hire the player in case Lewandowski leaves at the end of the season.

So far Gabriel Jesus is an average player, but he carries the promise of showing a much better performance if he had the opportunity of standing out as the main striker of the team. Are Juventus and Bayern making the right choice when going for him?

Timo Werner is a German speaking player, I hope to see a move for him back to the Bundesliga,I think he's too good to sit on the bench.
Having played for sometime there in the Bundesliga,he has got the full experience and having time to settle down won't be hard at all.

Gabriel Jesus to Juventus ?
I don't think so,it's not going to be that easy, Manchester City haven't solve there quest for a new forward after the movement of Sergio Aguero.
They won't let two players go so easily.
A possible move won't be possible.

I strongly believe that Lewandowski can still play great in the other big leagues in Europe.
If there is any team that will never want a center  forward is Liverpool FC.There are three wise men infront,that is Mane,Salah and  Firmino.These three person's formed a three man attack that seems the best in the premier league so far,and I think signing Lewandowski might just scatter the relationship and connection  between this three friends.
I agree Lewandowski is a very good player to have in the team,he plays really well and scores goal as usual,but a team like Liverpool won't be needing him.

Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane are really awesome players and they are contributing to the team a lot. However, they are not forward players, they are wingers. When it comes to their forward who is Roberto Firmino, I don't see him playing very good. Salah is carrying the team by scoring many goals. And I saw so many times that Firmino couldn't benefit from the goal chances he found. A forward like Lewandowski would score really a lot and he would team up with Mane and Salah really great.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United's talks with Bruno Fernandes for a contract extension are going on positively. And he is their number one priority like Paul Pogba also. As we know, Pogba's contract will expire at the end of next June. He is wanted by Real Madrid and PSG now. If Manchester United manage to extend his contract somehow, it will be for the benefit of them. Because Pogba is one of the most important players in the midfield.
I think Pogba will also follow in Bruno's footsteps at this time considering that for now he is actually one of the top starting line-ups at Manchester United and it is not impossible I don't think anyone can replace him from his current position.
but if the latest possibility is that pogba will leave for another team I think this will be a loss for MU, especially in the midfield, even though there are several midfield at Manchester, such as Sancho Mata and Van de Beek, but losing Pogba will be a big loss for MU.

Last season Pogba showed the initiative to leave Man United because he no longer feels comfortable at Man United, and there are even rumors that he also wants good teammates. But, there is a possibility that Pogba will discourage his intention to leave Man United because this season Man United has signed Ronaldo, Jadon Sancho, and Raphael Varane. Moreover, Varane and Pogba are close friends and in recent games, Pogba has often made assists.

Pogba and Bruno are Manchester United's main strengths in midfield. It is not possible to replace these two players at the moment. Instead of Pogba, experienced players like him will not be able to take Manchester United to the team now. And so when Pogba leaves, a vacancy will be created in his team. Manchester United should do their best to keep Pogba in the team.
