Omar Richards reported agreed to join Bayern Munich on a free transfer next summer. This player is quite young enough and give contributes well for reading. With Richard joining Bayern, of course this will be a good start to a career for him. The contracts will be 4 years.



OR should serve as a backup for AD and can also play in other positions

Quote
At Bayern, Richards is expected to shadow Alphonso Davies at left-back. An attacking full-back, Richards is also capable of playing further up the pitch, giving head coach Hansi Flick multiple options to deploy the player.

Honestly Barcelona would be not an ideal place for him, I think by far the best place for him would be Bayern and easily, because dude is known for direct football which Bayern plays better than anyone played in history, they have been awesome at it for nearly a decade. Inter could work if you force it hard enough but PSG would be amazing as well, not because they play that kind of football but because they have awesome players so they could definitely use someone like him.

Barcelona is a tiki taka team and they just pass to whoever is open, as long as you pass to someone open and you do not lose the ball that means you are not giving the ball to other team, you know tiki taka, and Wijnaldum is not that kind of player, he rarely ever passes back, so he will help with a lot of goals but he will also lose a lot of balls and cause possessions as well.

I somehow disagree. Barca is getting to be less and less of that tiki taka team that Pep molded all those years ago, and I think internally also with more and more personnel we have now not suited to it even Koeman has to realize this now.

Wijnaldum is the type of guy we need to transition to direct and pressing football.

According to Mirror, Inter Miami co-owner David Beckham wants to bring Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo both to the club very much. But imo, Cristiano Ronaldo will continue at Juventus in the next season too. And Lionel Messi will go to an European club, Manchester City most likely.

Liverpool really have had a very good collaboration with Klopp for a long time. Maybe they are not very good this season but every big team undergo this kind of periods sometimes. And I think it is definitely not related to Klopp. I wonder what Gerrard will do if this replacement happens. Lampard couldn't do much good at Chelsea. Will we see a similar thing with Gerrard too? Or will he manage the team nicely?

In my opinion, Liverpool since being handled by Klopp has improved tremendously and has become one of the best teams in Europa. But this
season Liverpool have been playing poorly, not because of Klopp's lackluster strategy. Because many Liverpool players are injured, especially
in the defender. And Liverpool don't have a substitute player of the same quality. So there's no way Liverpool will fire Klopp. Moreover, his
replacement is Gerrard who has no experience training big teams. Maybe will end up like Lampard when he coached Chelsea. Sometimes
a good player, not necessarily a good coach. If Klopp stops being a Liverpool coach not because of being fired, but it is possible that Klopp will
accept an offer as Germany coach to replace Joachim Loew.

As for Steven Gerrard, I wouldn’t really agree with you.
He has been the coach of Rangers, a Scottish great and one of the world's biggest clubs, for 2 years and he lifted them from the bottom and brought them practically to the title of champion after many years.
They are also very successful in European competitions.
He did great things in Scotland and showed that he has the charisma and knowledge to lead the world's biggest clubs, including Liverpool.
He and Lampard cannot be compared because Steven has already proven himself in successfully leading and coaching his team.
After Rangers I think Liverpool is the next logical step for him and that he is Klopp’s natural successor.

According to journalists near Milan here in Italy, Milan is working basically every day with the player's agents to extend his contract and avoiding to lose him for free and they seem very close to this intent.

Milan also have Donnaruma in expire at 30/06/2021 and he can leave for free, even if is in Milan for 5 years is still 22 year old.

Both Hakan and Donnaruma have played a crucial part in AC Milan successful run this year. Donnarumma has new wage demands to become the highest paid goalkeeper so it becomes difficult for Milan (https://www.football-italia.net/166221/donnarumma-contract-extension-‘difficult’). With Hakan they also are in talks and AC Milan are also considering to make the Tomori move permanent by going for buy option in loan they have.

Argentina striker Lautaro Martinez 23 says he is going to sign a contract extension with Inter Milan. he also sad that he held talks with Barcelona but that they are no deal have been reached.

I think it would be a good thing for him to extend his contract with Inter. He is playing really well there. And as long as he is happy there, why would he want to leave the team? Barcelona are the richest and also one of the biggest clubs in the world. But I think Inter are in a much better condition than them right now.

I first discovered Martin Odegaard in Football Manager.  Grin  He was improving himself so much that he was being a world-star player. I wonder whether he can do the same in the real world also. He is still 22 and I hope he can be a much better player in the future. He can do great things at Real Madrid if he proves himself.
There are so many players that we figured out way before teams in the football manager world, and some of them didn't really became good in the end, some of them just became basically nothings in the end but we have found out about the great players when they were super young.

I remember in early championship days I found Querasma and Ronaldo, and I remember me and my friend wanted to get them and I was capable of getting Querasma and I was super happy about it and he got Cristiano Ronaldo and he was happy about that too, now looking back on their lives we can say that Ronaldo was someone you wanted to get when he was even 17 years old and he was showing prospects of becoming a huge player, and so did Querasma.

So, that is why finding players on football manager is a bit weird, some of them becomes really good like they were in the game and some of them just becomes not a big name at all.

Liverpool are lining up Rangers boss and former Reds captain Steven Gerrard to replace manager Jurgen Klopp, who could be tempted to become Germany's manager if the job becomes available. Is the end of this magnificent collaboration between Klopp and Liverpool approaching?

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola's uneasy relationship with agent Mino Raiola will not prevent the club from trying to sign his 20-year-old client, Norway striker Erling Braut Haaland, from Borussia Dortmund. That relationship probably won’t even help the club to conclude this valuable deal.

Transfer rumours:

RB Leipzig boss Julian Nagelsmann would be interested in a move to Tottenham, should the Premier League club decide to replace Jose Mourinho. Will the "special one" survive this season at Tottenham?
England striker Harry Kane, is set to stay at Tottenham for at least another year. This is great news for Tottenham fans.
Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has been given the green light by the club to sign in-demand Norway striker Erling Braut Haaland from Borussia Dortmund. The Bundesliga club, however, doubt the 20-year-old will want to join the Premier League side. There is quite a crowd around Haaland and it will be interesting to follow this saga and in which club he will end up.

Source: https://www.bbc.com/sport/56214737
The thing about Nagelsmann was confirmed by german newspapers as well (something like de bild or something if I am not wrong) and it was said in reddit that his manager (even managers have managers? lol) would probably mean that it was leaked so that teams could calculate how much fans react to it, so if Tottenham fans read that news and say "oh wow that would be good" that means Tottenham and go ahead and fire Mourinho and get Nagelsmann but if fans react in a bad way about this, they could totally just decline the truth of it and not do it.

I believe Mourinho has been a bit underwhelming and he needs to find another challenge because this has been a bad season for him but last year wasn't good neither, he hasn't really been good at all and he has been going even worse this year. Haaland deal may not happen only because there are much much bigger teams than Chelsea that wants Haaland too so player may wait news about those teams first.

According to PSG sporting director Leonardo, PSG are preparing for extending Mbappe's contract. I think Mbappe would like to continue to be a part of this club and he would agree on a new deal. If PSG manage to do it before the next transfer window, the plans of every club that want to sign him will go titanic.  Grin

Mbappè wants to leave for Real for many years now.
He always loved them and if will not extend this year he will never do since he will go near the end of his contract with PSG.

I don't think PSG is an end squad for players, they want to leave in Barca, Real etc.

PSG and Inter both are looking at signing Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum who is now at 30 and he will be availble for free this summer.
PSG also closing on renewing both Neymar and Mbappe contract.
Dortmund are looking at Manchester United keeper Dean Henderson as potentiel summer transfer. the 23yo is valuated at 20M euros.
Actually I admire the way he plays for Liverpool. You don't see many midfielders play like him in English Premier League, he knows how to keep the ball very well in a positive manner (not side to side he always goes up and up) and at the same time press.

Would love him at Barcelona actually, I think he and Messi would work and weave out of defence easily.
Honestly Barcelona would be not an ideal place for him, I think by far the best place for him would be Bayern and easily, because dude is known for direct football which Bayern plays better than anyone played in history, they have been awesome at it for nearly a decade. Inter could work if you force it hard enough but PSG would be amazing as well, not because they play that kind of football but because they have awesome players so they could definitely use someone like him.

Barcelona is a tiki taka team and they just pass to whoever is open, as long as you pass to someone open and you do not lose the ball that means you are not giving the ball to other team, you know tiki taka, and Wijnaldum is not that kind of player, he rarely ever passes back, so he will help with a lot of goals but he will also lose a lot of balls and cause possessions as well.
