There are rumours around that Barcelona are trying to bring Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez. Some reports a time ago indicated that Messi wanted the striker to play alongside him and it will be a good deal if happens. Right now both teams have come to an agreement with deal: Lautaro Matinez(INT) for 70mn Euro + Junio Firpo (BAR). Now all Barcelona has to do is sell some players to match that 70mn Euro.

It looks like Manchester City and Chelsea London are interested in signing David Alaba. FC Bayern Munich and David Alaba still seem to be in contract negotiations, but the Austrian defender is hesitant. The German TV-Station Sky Sport News just reported the following:

Manchester City have concrete interest in David Alaba. Chelsea are also interested, but a transfer to the Blues is much less likely. Barcelona, currently struggling with financial problems, are hoping to sign Alaba on a free transfer next summer.

On the other hand, Bayern doesn't want to let Alaba go on a free next year. The Bavarians are still trying hard to extend Alaba's contract. A move to Man City is not ruled out, but a lot still has to happen before any deal is reached. [@SkySportNewsHD]

That's a very good news for city fans. There were lot rumours like KDB will be out if the ban stays and also there were rumours that Guardiola will also be not interested staying as City manager anymore.

Perhaps the story is not entirely over, in the end, the City was not acquitted because it was innocent but for other reasons.
As I understand it, the City is guilty but not punishable and other teams who are now fighting for fifth position and who therefore will not be in the cup will perhaps make opposition

Oh I see the picture- their punishment was reduced only to 10m. Can others oppose such decision like that? I am also bit unsure about that happening. Right now teams after City on the table are very close on points which each other. They will be much more focused on playing the best and secure the best spot they can right now rather than opposing such decisions. But who knows, can happen though since many are surprised by the decision overturned and punishment reduced.

Spurs paid about 60 million to Lyon for Ndombele last year, they won't sell him for much less after only one season, I guess.

Yeah, spurs wouldn't go for lesser bid especially when he has time remaining on his contract. So seems very less likely rumour to turn into reality.

Ndombele will certainly be expensive. I recall him being brought in Pochetinno last year adn with that much remaining years he will certainly be expensive. I don't think Bayern will be interested since we already have seen that they also weren't interested in increasing bid to match Sane's market value when they were seeking for Sane. There were some things that were pushed from Sane's end like not signing the contract extension and persistent with his demand to move to Bayern which put things into Bayern favour then. Won't happen like that in Ndombele case now.

I also think Ndombele wouldn't really be a fit for Bayerns squad and he wouldn't have a guaranteed starting position in their team right now. That rumor about Ndombele probably came up when Thiago was said to been already half-way to Liverpool. But right now, it's looking more like Thiago will fullfil his contract until next year. Or are there any new updated about that? With Thiago staying in Munich it would make even less sense for Bayern to spend a lot money for a bench-player. Spurs paid about 60 million to Lyon for Ndombele last year, they won't sell him for much less after only one season, I guess.

If they want to qualify in CL, they need to finish in the top 4, that's a rule many years back. Not to expect to kick someone better out and make a spot for you. I think it is a sport, and it takes results to succeed, not at the green table. The city has one of the best teams in the world, they are all good players and they deserve right now to be in the elite. Saying this as Manchester United supporter, there are several reasons why I would like to punish them, but then we lose touch with the sport.
it is quite another story why such a way of doing business is allowed, the FFP rules themselves are poorly set and there is a lot of space to manipulate the system.

Money rules this game for a while already, as long as it does, City, PSG and the rest of them will do whatever it is they want.
i'm looking forward to seeing Newcastle in this that =P I bet the new owners are getting ready to splash tons of money in the next transfer window.

the recent news about City means a new wave of rumours about signings, and the main target for the citizens seems to be Koulibaly https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2020/07/13/man-city-accelerate-rebuild-plans-five-new-signings/

Also, it looks like Man Utd are really close to signing Chidwell https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1309023/Man-Utd-Chelsea-transfer-news-Frank-Lampard
Since the beginning sources says that Newcastle will not splash cash in huge despite they could do it anytime, it was a strict investment which they said they will spend wisely.

We can take a look at aston villa who the owner himself nassef sawiris is the top 6 richest owner in Premier League, but where are they belong now? Fighting for the relegation and probably won't make it happen to stay at Premier League.

Everyone would expect Newcastle to have a huge spending in transfer window but the board warns to not expect that.

Well, it has been confirmed, the ban has been lifted and City will play champions league next season 100%, while also having to pay just 10m euros as fine as CAS overturns the ban.

More information are here: https://www.skysports.com/football/live-blog/11945/12027060/manchester-city-await-cas-verdict-on-champions-league-ban-appeal-updates-and-reaction

Meh, kind of expected. FFP is a failed experiment which is a shame because a few clubs with unlimited money simply erase all the good that has been done by clubs that really try to work according to FFP's guidelines.

They ruled in City's favor but the next time some club like Granada or Brescia is 20 minutes late on a 5$ payment, all the brainiacs will decide that Brescia needs to be erased from football's history books and should be banned to C1 league.

There are rumors, that FC Bayern München is interested in signing Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Tanguy Ndombélé. The current market value of the 23 year-old midfielder is currently about €52m. Ndombélé had 29 appearances for Tottenham this season and scored 2 goals. He still has a contract at Tottenham until 30.06.2025. So if FC Bayern wants to sign him, it's going to be pretty expensive.

Bayern are interested in Tottenham midfielder Tanguy Ndombélé ahead of the possible departures of Thiago, Javi Martínez and/or Tolisso. The idea of a loan deal with option to buy is clearly conceivable. Spurs want to recover as much as they paid for Ndombélé [@AlexisBernard10]

I’m surprised at this, Ndombélé has done close to nothing at Spurs to attract a club of Bayern’s interest. This transfer would be very strange but I guess anything can happen?

Tanguy Ndombele is a talented young player, if Bayern Munchen manages to bring in Ndombele it is very good for strengthening Bayern's midfield.
The Ndombele game is very good in helping the attack, but if the team gets a counter attack Ndombele is also very fast in helping the defense.
I agree that Spurs will ask for a very high price to release Ndombele, after all the contracts are still long in Spurs so it makes the price will be
expensive. My suggestion is that Bayern look for other options relatively cheaply, maybe Sandro Tonali's defensive midfielder Brescia could be
another alternative.

Few minutes left at the sentence about the ban of Manchester City.

If the ban will be confirmed some players will be on the market, Kevin de Bruyne for example already said he wants to play the Champions League.

Edit, the sentence will be live here in 2 minutes: https://www.tas-cas.org/en/index.html
That's really something.

They even only have to pay 10 million euro instead 30 million as previously charged.
This FIFA rules are insanely corrupt inconsistent, the financial fair play is not exist .

Barcelona have given up on trying to bring  Neymar from PSG? Is this saga finally over?


Seems like it. Given their financial position I also doubted that they would be able resign Neymar. I thought maybe it would happen if PSG would have bend down a little and allowed some kind of negotiations but I don't think so now. Also he is 28 now and I don't think they would be interested in him anymore by the time they are able to restore their financial situation.

Barcelona will have to pay 20m euros to Borussia Dortmund if they sell Ousmane Dembele this summer

That's something new. Is it in their contract? Guess Barcleona have to deal with him for another year. -_-

Honestly,  I don’t believe that is any chance now that Neymar play again in Barcelona.
Last chance for this transfer probably was last year before corona crisis. 
Because of their difficult financial situation right now,  Barcelona can't pay for him.
Regarding Dembele,  I believe they have to pay to Borussia because of his contract.
It seems that Barcelona will save money if they don't sell him now 😀
