All will be clarified after Chelsea played in the Europa League  and of course this transfer was made after Gareth Bale was sold

Eden Hazard will definitely strengthen Real Madrid's team in case of confirmed transfer. But I think it might be not the best idea for Eden to choose Real Madrid for the next season.

There have been many who were called masters in the possession and great passers of the ball but when  they came to Barcelona, their performance goes down an example will be Cesc Fabregas who started brightly and in the end falters and this is even a player who started in the Catalan academy, not every player can adapt to the Barcelona way of playing and now Coutinho is also showing us how difficult it is.

Bale showed poor performance on last couple of season.Infact, When Real Madrid was in need of him most after Ronaldo's departure he failed to perform.The current manager Zidane isn’t happy with him and already told him to look for a new club.

OTOH, According to Marca, De ligt is one step away from Barcelona transfer.This wonder kid of 19 year's old will probably play with pique from upcoming season.             

Gareth Bale returns to Tottenham?
Has anyone discussed this rumor? Real Madrid reportedly offered Tottenham Hotspur to borrow Gareth Bale for £10m. However, provided that Tottenham is willing to pay Bale a salary of 300,000 euros from a total of 700,000 euros per week. very sad to see Gareth Bale now, no longer needed as in real Madrid 

Easy on De Jong. It's one thing to play with Ajax in a low-tier league, it's another different thing to wear the Barca t-shirt and immediately play in the starting XI of one of the biggest clubs in the world. Look at Coutinho, came from the EPL, Barca expected the next Xavi or Iniesta, turns out the brazilian ended up being a 140M flop.

Knowing how obssesed Floretino is with DDG, i wouldn't be surprised if he's our next signing...as if the problem this season was the GK  I hope we get another 'fax machine' case lol

Gareth Bale to Tottenham? https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/gareth-bale-offered-10m-loan-15712176

I don't wanna put your hopes up but I think DDG is going to Real too.  I can see some of United's core players announcing their 'subtle' () come get me pleas when the transfer window opens...  Could even be as early as the end of the FA Cup.

This'll be fun. 

I think this rumor has been talked about for a long time and in reality it never happened. But maybe on this transfer season Eden Hazard really did move to Real Madrid. And Mateo Kovacic Asks Fans to Appreciate Eden Hazard's Decision. Let's wait for the development of Eden Hazard, it looks like it's very much awaited by Chelsea fans and Real Madrid

Domenico Berardi said on a statement that he is open to any moves with A.C. Milan saying that it his part of his maturation process he gained from playing with Sassuolo. Milan might bite with his interest since Samu Castillejo hasn't showed any good performance for the team. The main problem with this move would likely be about the money involve with the transfer. Since Berardi is the most valuable player for Sassuolo I don't think they would accept any flimsy offers for him.

Great signing for Real if it happens. I think Hazard only has 1 year left on his Chelsea contract, it would be a much higher transfer fee otherwise.

Chelsea have a transfer ban for incoming players so this sucks for them.

It was about time for him to leave Chelsea. If he make a fantastic match in the Europa League final then Chelsea will possibly ask for more money as his value is going to increase.
He is on the peak of his career so a transfer is going to be good.

I'm happy for him, It's quite a certain he's heading to the Spanish Capital. He's also gone ahead to advise Chelsea to stick with current coach Maurizio Sarri.

Perhaps winning the Europa league will be a befitting way to end his playing in the Chelsea shirt.

Aren't you aware of Frenkie De Jong? He plays at exact same position in midfield where Rakitic currently plays. Frenkie has mastery in possession game and he is well-suited for Barcelona style. No one is saying that Rakitic is bad player at all, he is class-midfielder. But the problem is there will be little chances for him once Frenkie arrives at Camp Nou. In last season we have seen a goalie like Cillessen who plays as first-preference for Netherlands National Team sitting for most of the season on bench. I don't want to see same happening to Rakitic. Like Munir moved to Sevilla last season and had better opportunities there, it would be individually better for Rakitic to join Inter Milan. I will choose Frenkie over Rakitic any day for Barca XI.

Just read that. According to sources close to the club, this is pretty much done deal.

Also, according to Marca, Real Madrid has told Keylor Navas that they won't count on him for the next season^[1]. Fucking bullshit if you ask me, Navas saved our asses countless times on the road to win 3 CL in a row. Now we're stuck with Courtois who hasn't had a single great moment this season, and Luca Zidane who's absolute shit.

What's next? Marcelo and Isco staying for another season?

Even though it's not official yet and it will only be announced after the Europa League's final, Eden Hazard will join Real Madrid for about 100 million Euros.

^ ^  Rakitic for 50m...?  Woodward is interested!  Lolol.  And he could get Gareth Bale too while he's at it. 

Even though he has had an amazing season it behoves me that there are still talks of selling him even though no replacements have been brought in so far and one must know that not all players are capable of playing the Barcelona style of football. A prime example is Coutinho who though is an exceptional player but is currently struggling at Barcelona.

50 millions ?
I missed that.
Sell the guy lol !

Yeah, but Barcelona will never be ready for the transition of the squad if they keep holding on to their ageing players, Getting 50 Million Euros for Rakitic is definitely not a bad deal for Barca, It's inevitable that if he's still here then De Jong might not get enough chances, and the competition to prove himself might be too huge for him, we've witnessed that a lot of times in Barca, it happened with Denis Suarez, Andre gomes even Yerry Mina and it's currently happening with Malcom when they came in as options it limited their time of play and they lose confidence, at the slightest chance they get the expectations is always enormous on them. Clement Lengelet also struggled a lot when he got here and If Umtiti wasn't out injured a long while, I'm quite certain he might have ended up like Mina too.

All I'm saying in essence is that, If Barcelona is going to transition to a new era of players, we've got to start now and gradually, It will take a big toll on Barcelona if they hope to replace Pique, Messi, Suarez, Busquets, Rakitic and Jordi Alba in a season or two, These are the core components of the Barcelona team and they all above 30, It's definitely certain that most these players have just a season more or two at most three season left in them to be able to compete at the highest level, Replacing just Neymar has been a problem yet to be solved, imagine losing 3 of these players in one season, They preparation really has to start now.

I like Rakitic. I know he's not getting younger but I think he could still be a starter at Barcelona even with deJong's arrival.
I understand he wants to be sure of that but I don't think Inter is a good enough team for him.
