Real Madrid seem to be interested in signing B. Dortmund striker Erling Haaland. As we know, he is also wanted by Chelsea and Manchester Utd. I think he can play good in the Premier League and La Liga both. But I would like to see him at Real Madrid more. If he chooses to go to the Premier League, I would like to see him at Manchester Utd.

Well, they signed Coutinho for crazy price only a few years ago,,, and still are able to sign on big names and big players, if not for that clubs will not sell them now. I think they are still a big club, just like AC Milan are still big even though they are no longer a winner in recent times. Barcelona will win something again soon, and still have Messi.

one of the best performing players in the bundesliga at the moment, has aroused the interest of various english clubs - but borussia dortmund is also said to be interested in Florian Neuhaus (bor. mönchengladbach)

Cagliari (Italian Serie A) representatives said Asamoah is coming from Milan. He is flying to Cagliari no: the Ghanaian midfielder, released after his experience at Inter, will increase the quality and experience of Di Francesco's squad.
In 2013, Asamoah was ranked as the 27th best footballer in the world by Bloomberg. Today, he would not reach even top 1000.

According to DailyMail, Arsenal have reached an agreement to sign Real Madrid midfielder Martin Odegaard on loan. They will pay a £1.8m loan fee for M. Odegaard. But there will not be an option to buy in the deal.

i also think that Thomas Tuchel will have the best chance of getting the job at chelsea here

Personally, I consider the decision to dismiss a coach, regardless of his name in half a season will have a lot of risk for the rest of the season for the team, especially that in Chelsea case. there are demands to reach a qualifying position for the Champions League compared to the number of contracts that occurred to the team and the money that was paid.
Chelsea are currently in ninth place in the league as no team has yet beaten them in the ladder. 25% of their goals in the league came from set balls and this is not a bad thing, except that it shows that open offensive play and through the depth of the opponent's defense does not exist.
The inability of the team to break through the last line makes it easy for the opponent to defend against them despite the great quality of the players in the squad, Chelsea this season relies a lot on the strength of James and Chilwell to make the play from the space on the right and left side.
 Lampard has one approach, which is to play in the semi-spaces or play through the sides, and if the opponent can limit these two options, it will be easy to stop Chelsea offensively or to move more precisely to greatly reduce his attack risk.

All these causes made Lampard threatened with dismissal a long time ago, to have his neck cut off today simply because he did not cope.

Like earlier Trofo said, Lampard wasn't capable o
of handling the team such big. His last couple of matches have all gone wrong. Now Tuchel to Chelsea is up next and in pole position to get job. Allegri hasn't been contacted for the job.

Still he was a very strict manager so he needs to take his job with small clubs and develop step by step and make it into managing big clubs.

Lampard surely has his part in all of this, but Chelsea's problems are much bigger than that. To start with, a shaky defence and overall a really bloated and unbalanced team that will take a few transfer windows to trim and balance.

Whoever takes the job will have to deal with 30 players wanting to play, without the ability to offload them due to high wages and lack of interest from other clubs due to the COVID crisis.

Chelsea is a club run by its directors, Lampard said already that he found the politics 'impossible to handle'. Good luck to the next one, although an experienced manager will probably deal with it a lot better than Lampard could. This job came way too early in his management career.

I think Abramovich is possibly annoyed that he backed Lampard heavily in the transfer market. They spent a lot in the summer but are miles off the pace in the PL.

Yes you are rihght; its the biggest news on skysport at the moment; Lampard greatest undoing was failure to get results when it matters most; and failure to beat a single top half team in the league this season and not getting his team to play the most basic football; Lampard was also unable to get his players firing on all cylinders. Chelsea are going for Tuchel, with the hope he is able to rejuvenate the german brothers season. But will Tuchel be a better replacement?

It's looking like Frank Lampard is getting the sack.
This will be after poor run of form in the league losing 5 out of 8 matches.
Lampard this season managed to get the lowest amount of points 1.67 per game since the arrival of Roman Abramovitch.
His most potential replacement is Thomas Tuchel as he is not occupied like other targets like Southampton man Ralph Hasenhüttl or Julian Nagelsmann tge manager of RB Leipzig.

Looks like it's almost done now ^[source] and hopefully the latter part happens so we could finally see someone else apart from the other two clowns ^{[Willian and Pepe]}.

Other rumors surrounding Arsenal:

PSG offering Draxler in exchange for Guendouzi <sup>[source 1 and source 2]
- A worthy addition.</sup>
Torreira to Monaco for a three-year contract ^{[from the same mirror source (#2)]}.
^{- Personally, I think he can still be useful to Arsenal.}

I do not think that they can get both of them. Barcelona 10 years ago was a big big name, they were capable of signing any player they want both with money because they were earning so much but for free as well  because they were a huge team that can pay so much but also give you a lot of titles as well, who wouldn't want to be on the team with xavi, iniesta and peak messi and win champions league, la liga and many more with them? There was some hype around it.

However now, they are similar to other european giants, not bad of course, they are whatever liverpool, real madrid, psg, bayern, juventus and similar level teams are, which is still huge of course but they are not on a different level of their own anymore. So they will have to fight with other these level teams if they want to get these players, if other teams do not try to get alaba or aguero, that means they will be capable of getting both of them, but if these teams get involved it is going to get tougher.

It is not a new issue that Barcelona tries to sign Sergio Aguero. However, I am not sure if Barcelona can be successful to sign him since Man City isn't a club that really needs money to buy other payers. Also, Sergio Aguero is the key player there, the best CF that Man City has now. I believe Man City won't do a careless decision by selling him.

I think Dembele has missed his chance to make a move away from Barcelona; Chelsea have gotten Ziyech and Werner and also have odoi and pulisic who could play on the wings; while Manchester united are heavily interested in Jordan Sancho, who is younger and better. Barcelona would have to renew Dembele contract in the end or he joins Klopp at Liverpool who is also an admirer.

Dzeko has been not called for the last game with Roma and now he is out of the team's plan for the next future.

He is on the market and they even open to loan him, only 6 days left the problem is his high salary.

Chelsea and Manchester Utd both want to sign Barcelona right-winger Ousmane Dembele who has 18 months left on his contract. I have no doubt that wherever he goes, he will do very nice things there. I believe he can adapt to both of these teams.

Could be possible with the pocket they have. Only thing they can target are the ones going out for free or falling under their budget. Still there would be lot of teams going for both players. They are well recognized players so it won't be so easy. Don't know about Aguero but couple of days ago Alaba to Real Madrid was going on pretty strong. There are many players whose contracts are going to end in next transfer window so just wait for the crazy and these two with be amongst them.
