De Gea back? is this real? of course it will still be news that makes us curious. Smiley

As has been reported if De Gea will go to Italy to sign a contract with Genoa and with this he can enjoy his activities as a professional football player again. It is not easy for a goalkeeper who is still good enough for the European level and I hope this can give a different color to his career.

If this process goes well then it is certain that De Gea will not waste his time anymore to continue doing individual training and he can provide his experience to a different league that he has never visited. I think Genoa has made the right move by recruiting De Gea after their previous goalkeeper Josep Martinez joined Inter some time ago.

Chelsea and Manchester City have good relationship both of them after success signing Cole Palmer and seems not problem if reach the bid offer fees transfer seems easily for Chelsea signing Julian Alvarez. Manchester City finally announce the transfer fees of Julian Alvarez after several time want to leave after getting difficult get more minutes playing.
Actually, Julian Alvarez is good back up players for Manchester City and he can plays well on several position as second striker, winger side until central forward and he played well in this season when City leaving by Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland got injured.

Manchester City on advantage position after two teams Chelsea and Arsenal are interested for signing Julian Alvarez, waiting for which one team will give higher offer and City has opportunity looking for back up position with better qualities. Chelsea and Arsenal still not announce yet with their bid offer for signing Julian Alvarez and the players still with his national team Argentina played on Olympics event.
Folks, this Chelsea-Alvarez-Man City thing is fascinating. You've got this young Alvarez, who's proven himself time and again. Game-changer, not backup. A winning team needs versatile players like him who score goals and make plays. Pep Guardiola is a world-class manager. He recognizes Alvarez's worth. Thats why he charged €77 million. Its a big number, sure, but its a message. Pep says, "This kid is a winner, and he's staying with me."

Everything about people, life, and business comes down to desire. If Chelsea wants Alvarez, they'll pay. If not, that also indicates something. Whats best for the players, teams, and beautiful game of football is key.

It looks like Nico Williams is likely to stay for another season because of promising his brother Iñaki Williams.

It isn't guaranteed yet but many other sources also started to write this. This would make Barcelona and the fans devastated for sure.  Sad  Because Williams signing would make a big difference for the team. We watched him and Yamal in Euro 2024. They were the best attacking duo honestly. Barcelona is about to miss the chance to bring them together for the long term, at least for now.

This means Real Madrid would be even more comfortable in the La Liga.

On the one hand, age will be an obstacle for players who have a career in the Premier League because the competition here different but each coach has a different view of the players they have. De Bruyne is a player who sets the rhythm and he plays a role in ensuring dominance on the field. For now, De Bruyne's ability is still good enough to play next season, especially since his contract still has one more season left.
At the age of 33, of course it is still possible for Manchester City to rely on him and even if he cannot be fully relied on in every match, the Manchester City coach himself also knows how to manage De Bruyne's time to keep playing in every match even though it is not full time. De Bruyne is a player who already has value and can also be the key for other players so that he is still worthy enough to be used next season by the Manchester City team, especially if his own contract still has one more season left there.
The dust has already settled about Kevin De Bruyne's case and age is never a barrier even as I love the way Pep Guardiola handled his case. This shows he is well-appreciated and still needed in Man City, the guy is still doing wonderfully well, no doubt about that. I never knew he was going to stay with Man City anymore as the news of its contract conclusion with Al-Ittihad in the Saudi Professional League was everywhere. Although it's a personal term agreement which is still not subject to what the club has to say about one of their important players.

I guess Pep Guardiola understands what could happen to the centre play if he could allow him to go. Since 2015, he has not been a dull player and a pay raise as one of the means of encouragement is not too much to ask. And with a player of his decoration, just like many others now, even those who did not achieve his status in the world of football are now thinking of the money as the main driver for their plays since retirement is near. This is why SPL doesn't waste time in attracting such like him with huge money that the EPL will not be able to afford.

I was reading the latest news on Roma, and it seems that Here we are, Matias Soulé is ready to begin his adventure at Roma, I don't know if it was good for Juventus to deprive themselves of such an important player, he's a great player in my opinion, they have an agreement has been reached with Juventus for 26 million euros plus four bonuses. A great investment on the part of Roma which this year could really hurt, a big coup in addition to the one already made with Le Fée

Viktor Gyokeres has so far attracted the attention of many English league teams after successfully scoring 43 goals in 50 appearances with Sporting, but currently no team has serious moved to try to recruit Gyokeres from Sporting, Sporting Lisbon recruited Gyokeres for only 21 million euros, in fact now sporting has set a price of almost 105 million euros for the club that wants to sign him, chelsea which has brought in several young players currently I think will no longer be interested in getting him, because they have spent a lot of money to buy many players, it is reported that Arsenal are now starting to move to get him and has offered 60 million euros for sporting.
I thought Arsenal has been deal for Viktor Gyokeres transfer because the latest rumour i have heard is Arsenal want to bid for this player but apparently they haven't done it yet and indeed the goals records from Viktor Gyokeres makes some of European big clubs were showing their interest to him because within one season after transfered from Conventry City Viktor Gyokeres can adapt quickly with Sporting and scoring 43 goals

I can see it that Viktor Gyokeres was into radar at least 4 premier league clubs Chelsea, Tottenham, Arsenal and the latest is Liverpool but because Viktor Gyokeres has release clause price above to 100 million then Sporting only want to sell him on that price and it's interesting to see which teams will be willing to pay according to Viktor Gyokeres price tag

For Liverpool indeed they want to gets at least 1 more striker because so far they only have Darwin Nunez for centre striker but i think the rumour about they interested want to buy Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting will not going to happend because just like i said above Viktor Gyokeres has expensive price and Liverpool so far didn't have money for buy one striker only for 100 million unless they have to sell the players first before buy Viktor Gyokeres
Yes, Sporting Lisbon seems to have seen the talent that Viktor Gyokeres has from the start his join, so they have no hesitation in setting a release clause that is too large at this time, Some of the teams you mentioned have so far been linked with Viktor Gyokeres, but so far Arsenal is the team that is starting to try to get Viktor Gyokeres although their offer is still considered ridiculous by Sporting at the moment, Arsenal has offered almost 86 million euros to recruit Viktor Gyokeres and it looks like this offer will be rejected by Sporting considering they don't want to release Viktor Gyokeres currently  if under 100 million euros, Arsenal are requires a center forward who should be able to focus on getting him now because previously they lost Benjamin Sesko who stayed at Leipzig, and If Arsenal don't dare to bid at a high price, it's likely that rival teams will do it now and I don't expect PSG to enter later in the competition to get viktor Gyokeres because if that happens then there is no hope for EPL clubs to get him at this time.

The question is if Pep Guardiola will be willing to sell Jullian off. According to him, the 23yr old Argentine is still in his prime and a very good player that is very essential to the team and even Alvarez himself has said he'd still like to stay at the club so it doesn't matter whether Chelsea have got a good relationship with City or not.
 For me, Arsenal should focus on signing him if they can afford it but to be frank, €77m is quite over priced for a player who made a total of 36 league appearances and 11 goals to his name. I just feel Pep Guardiola is trying to ward off interested buyers by placing that huge price tag on Alvarez.
It could still happen due to several factors for now because seeing the previous news where Alvarez refused a 4-season contract extension from Manchester City it seemed to confirm that he wanted to leave Manchester City for the reason of wanting to get a better place because we know that Alvarez is sometimes only an option to replace Halaand which makes him seem not too satisfied with it.

His value is still quite large for now so it is still quite reasonable if in the end Alvarez might be a little difficult to bring in but if there are some clubs who are serious about bringing Julian Alvarez especially with a suitable clause then it could happen. Currently, his contract is still quite long but it cannot be denied that his performance is still quite good as an answer when Haaland has problems in productivity, it's just that Alavrez is still not too satisfied with that so if there is a more favorable offer, especially when the offer is in the line up, Alvarez could have left Manchester City.

Alvarez just wants a permanent place in the team, that is the main reason why he wants to leave City, but I have doubts about him getting it at Arsenal, in the case of Chelsea it is more likely. But the transfer fee of 77 million is a very high price for such a player, and you are right Grardiola does not want to let such a player go, he is still young and will get a place in the team if he is patient enough. And leaving now to Chelsea, who can spend another weak season with Maresca, may not be the best decision.

Como is trying to build their team to fight against first tier Italian teams, since June they already sign 9 players so far, there are few popular players like Varane from Manchester United, Alberto Moreno, Pepe Reina and Andre Belotti. They're already old especially Pepe Reina, 41 years old. They're also sign a rising star player from Iraq which is Ali Jasim.

We will see how good is Como, this is the first time they will play in Serie A.
But how Como's efforts to start their new competition in Serie A are quite good, by spending money and buying new players and also like Varane who already has a lot of experience in the world of football, of course they expect next season to be a more ambitious season, especially since they have a very good coach as a player and Kibi will handle Como as coach Fàbregas, the figure is no stranger in the world of football and now he wants to try it as a coach and I'm sure he has talent and he can definitely bring Como to a good place next season.

After what Como did in this transfer, I hope they bring in a good striker like Icardi, this is a suitable player there so that they have a good figure in their attack line and I hope they also bring in two more new players to fill new strength in their team so that next season they can compete well in Serie A Italy.

Chelsea will pay € 24.5m for Danish talented GK Filip Jørgensen.

Filip Jørgensen does look to be a very talented goalkeeper. I hope he will actually be very useful to Chelsea.

I don't see anything impressive in Filip Jørgensen's Stats, Chelsea should've known better than signing someone that conceded about 63 goals in 36 matches last season in the Laliga that means he could even concede more than that in the EPL,  instead of wasting €24.5m for a goalkeeper with such poor record they would've stick with Sanchez and work on Petrovic to improve as a backup then sign quality CB's about two that would partner with Tosin Adarabioyo since they want to sell Chalobah. If you ask me, I'll say that Todd Boehly have not really been impressive since his take-over of Chelsea FC he keeps making same errors season after season by bringing unnecessary signings and I think the decision of signing Maresca is not very good for the team and could be worst than Graham Potter's Regime. I still believe Pochettino would've done a better job this season, he improved the teams performance and got them to the Europa if not that Manchester United won the FA and they were moved to the Conference League Chelsea would've been participating in the Europa League this coming season.

Sometimes I wonder if Todd boehly and co are ok mentally, because with the way they are doing things since they took over the club as the new owners,  they just keep on making one stupid decision and signing that wouldn't help the team in anyway.
Todd Boehly only lacks experience in managing a big team or people call it someone who has no experience in terms of football. So he does not have wise thoughts and also cannot see the potential of quality players. But it all happened last season and this season it seems that Todd Boehly already has changes because some young players who have just been recruited in my opinion are better than last season.

Quote
let just look at the team presently, we are seriously lacking a quality attacker and a quality defensive player, instead of them fixing that by acquiring someone big like victor osimhen in this transfer window, they are busy gathering bunch of kids that wouldn't help the team present.
Regarding Todd Boehly who is busy thinking about young players and neglecting to recruit Osimhen, it is actually not a mistake, but if you remember, Chelsea is actually only complying with the FFP rules not to spend large amounts of money. Todd Boehly could have brought in Osimhen right now by paying the amount Napoli wanted, but what if Chelsea received an FFP warning and was punished? Chelsea is currently only monitoring the price that Napoli will lower and if Osimhen is priced below $100 million, Todd Boehly will most likely make another offer.

Man, honestly, Jorgensen is crap, and he's also an average goalkeeper. This is an embarrassing signing by Chelsea. The Blues wasted lots of money to recruit a goalkeeper with terrible stats last season. Filip Jørgensen is Kepa V2. Chelsea should manage Petrovic to improve his footwork. He's a much better shot stopper than Sanches, Kepa, or Filip Jørgensen (Kepa Version 2).

Chelsea once again wasted money for average goal keeper.

By the way I was looking at his stats and I saw that he has picked up for yellow cards in the last season. How does that happen ! ! By the way right now Chelsea does need some goalkeepers because they do not have a great main goalkeeper to be honest. And I think this Villarreal  goalkeeper who will be able to give good service to the Blues for quite a long period of time. Actually it is also going to be a good thing Jørgensen because he might actually get good playing time in Chelsea.


It's strange if you said you have been taking a look at his stats, but you still call him a talented goal keeper.



This is even worse than what Chelsea's current goalkeepers have recorded. Jorgensen played 36 games last season, and he conceded 63 goals in one season. That's terrible.
Sometimes I wonder if Todd boehly and co are ok mentally, because with the way they are doing things since they took over the club as the new owners,  they just keep on making one stupid decision and signing that wouldn't help the team in anyway.

Let's just take a look at the kind of coaches they have hired, since they took over the club, it is from one scrab coach to another, and sincerely speaking, it was only Mauricio pochettino that tried a little bit, if not, graham potter, frank lampard and the rest are just bunch of clueless manager they have hired since they came into the club, all in the name of looking for a yes man as a coach, someone they can easily control, let just look at the team presently, we are seriously lacking a quality attacker and a quality defensive player, instead of them fixing that by acquiring someone big like victor osimhen in this transfer window, they are busy gathering bunch of kids that wouldn't help the team present.
Too many kids in this team, and we have no good veteran and experienced players in the squad. Last season was far better than this time, and i think the decision to appoint Maresca is terrible. The gameplay of Chelsea is so terrible to watch, and everything that happens in Chelsea is a setback.

Talking of our defense, I think that cholaba is way more better then all the current central backs we have at the club now, but the clueless coach and hierarchy decision to drop him, with the intention of selling him off, right now, Chelsea football club is just a disaster under the leadership of Todd boehly and co.

Totally agree with you, but Boehly is still in his stance to sell Chalobah. I can't grasp how Chelsea still wants to sell Chalobah after that awful result against Celtic. That decision is beyond me.

Clueless coach, inexperienced players, and horrible tactics. It's all a complete package brought by Todd Boehly to the Chelsea after he fired Pochettino.

COMO has indeed shown their enthusiasm to form their squad as best as possible in order to prepare for their best season in Serie A. because yes, this will be a different level of competition to Serie B. And COMO is aware of this so they are so aggressive in bringing in new players to their squad in the current transfer market. And yes, Pepe Reina is one of the players brought to COMO from Villareal. And if you look at Pepe Reina's track record, this player actually has a lot of experience at big clubs such as Barcelona, ​​Liverpool, Villareal, Napoli, Bayern Munich, AC Milan, Lazio and now he has come to COMO. He may not be a prominent player. But with his experience, maybe he can still be expected there.

Chelsea and Arsenal still not announce yet with their bid offer for signing Julian Alvarez and the players still with his national team Argentina played on Olympics event.
Julian Alvarez seems to be one of the players that many big clubs are targeting. It's not just the club of the Premier League who are eyeing the services of this player. But it was also circulated that PSG and Atletico Madrid were interested in this player. And Man City has also set the transfer value for this player at around 77 million pounds (including bonuses). And I think the player will be very happy with whatever team finally manages to sign him. And yes, now Man City just needs to wait which team will make the highest bid first. Man City actually wants to keep Julian Alvarez, but it seems like Man City will also make quite a profit if Julian Alvarez is successfully sold in the current transfer market at the price they have set. And yes, Man City will still be able to look for other players who can be almost equal to this player.

Chelsea and Manchester City shared good chemistry when it comes to players. Signing Cole Palmer last season was obviously the best decision ever made by Todd Boehly and watching the wonderkid grow to become a tactical player. Manchester City is crucially mapping out important goals and players for next season. This is definitely not the time for the citizens to be dormant in any positions, ofcourse there's absolutely running momentum for them. Pep Guardiola is actually the main pillars of Manchester City and everything progressing.  

Julian Alvarez deal would become complex for the Blues because on the other hand, the Citizens wouldn't allow any potential backup player to exits. Alvarez is important and keyplayer in the frontline, he completed football in just few numbers of seasons spent with Pep Guardiola. Won all major titles and probably in his limelight phase.

Do you know that at 24 Julian Alvarez has won it all? The Fifa World Cup Competition, Copa America, Champions League Competition, Super League Cup Competition, The Premier League Competition, The FA Cup Competition, And lastly, The EFL Cup Competition. I'm my opinion he is a complete player even as a youngin and he wants to leave Manchester City for more game time.

What I know that it's difficult for a club to tie down a player who wants to go, I have seen this with countless players and Julian Alvarez will not be the last, he wants to leave for a club he'll be the first choice striker. The news says Arsenal and Chelsea are linked with the striker but I know from day one, he has set his eyes on a move to Spanish side Atletico Madrid.

I see that the reason why they increased the transfer fee was to chase clubs away but take a look at clubs still hunting him down. Imagine Arsenal spending 77m to get a striker who's well proven in the Premier League Competition and European Competitions, say no more because they'll have a great combination next season. Why spend 100m Euros on a striker who you haven't seen at a top level? ( Viktor Gyokeres )

Arsenal made some significant signatures last season, like bringing in Declan Rice, David Raya and Trossad as they had quick impact for the club. They should adopt the same policy for Julian Alavraz. He should be open to the move and project.
Well, this player is very lucky and also has the abilities that actually deserve to be the main player at a club. It's just that he competes at Manchester City and it is very natural that there he is only a second tier player. But last season he showed extraordinary things because he got more playing time because Haaland was injured and after Haaland recovered he still played a lot even though only in the second half or in the remaining minutes. but there is no doubt that this player is one of the most important players that Manchester City has. So if Manchester City loses this player then it will be a loss for Manchester City in terms of squad depth. because this young player still has the potential to develop into an even greater player. And losing Julian Alvarez also means that Manchester City is starting to lose strength in their second tier squad. And last season, Manchester City was able to remain strong even though several of their main players were injured because they had second-string players who were just as strong who could be very good substitutes without affecting the quality of the game. But I'm not sure which team will ultimately succeed in bringing in Julian Alvarez. Whether Chelsea, Arsenal or Atletico Madrid. But Atletico Madrid have actually been hunting for him since they prepared to lose Alvaro Morata. And now Atletico Madrid has lost Alvaro Morata. So it is very likely that Atletico Madrid will not give up on getting this player's signature. But yes, Arsenal and Chelsea could be the strongest candidates if you look at financial strength. And even though Manchester City wants to keep him, it will be very difficult if the player wants to leave in order to get more playing time as a main player.
