If van de Beek and Pogba both leave the club in the next transfer window, Manchester Utd of course will need to make a big transfer(s) for the midfield. I also agree that Calhanoglu don't seem to fit Manchester Utd so well but still he can do nice things when he gets the chance if we assume he will be in the subs.
What we are not realizing is that United made some profit this year anyway, so they will have some transfer budger right? And if they can sell Pogba and beek that would mean they will have some more money on top of that, and with the fact that they have so much money they could get just 2 players that would be even higher than the ones they had to let go. There are so many awesome new players in the league and they could provide a lot more.

I suggest Kalvin Phillips from Leeds, they were interested for a while but he signed with Leeds instead, I think they could try again and pay Leeds a decent amount to get him, Wijnaldum seems to be on the market as well from what I have seen, which means a duo with Kalvin-Wijnaldum would be amazing for them and not that old neither so they would be great together over course of years as well helping United to get better.

I don't think Hakan Çalhanoğlu would fit in Manchester United's system honestly. He's doing okay with AC Milan, because the style of play fits him well. He's not that dynamic, I don't see him in starting eleven. Who would you cut to put him in starting eleven? That rumour is not realistic to me.


A free player can fit any team right now with the pandemic situation and the money crisis.

But yeah depended if they will end in selling players, according to rumors Van de Beek and Pogba could leave in the next session.

"His flamboyant playing style is similar to that of Fernandes, and he could provide the perfect alternative to the Portuguese playmaker."*

Even in the news you shared it's said that he would be a replacement for Fernandes. I don't think he would accept to start as a sub at this stage of his career.

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.

Donnarumma and Calhanoglu are both very valuable players for Milan undoubtedly. Letting them go for free would be very bad for Milan for sure. I also believe that they are doing whatever they can to extend their contracts. I hope they won't lose these awesome players this easy.

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.

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.
