Rumors about an offer from Juventus to Atalanta for koopmeiners.
Offer was of 45mil, Atalanta wants 60mil.

On the player we got Liverpool also few weeks ago but the player wanted only Juventus.
But at that price Juventus can't buy him.

Keep an eye from Premier League teams.
Koopmeiners has attracted interest from several clubs this summer thanks to his performances for Atalanta in Serie A.

Liverpool have long been interested in Teun Koopmeiners and expressed their desire to bring him to Anfield to strengthen their midfield. The Kop will likely fail in this deal because personally Koopmeiners only wants to join Juventus this summer and I believe that Juventus will also be willing to spend a large amount of money to get him. Liverpool are having a relatively quiet transfer window. Atalanta still has a midfielder who promises to help the Anfield team forget about Koopmeiners. That's Ederson. Ederson is the more practical signing for The Kop. In theory, Gomes and Koopmeiners are two completely different types of players, while Gomes acts like a midfielder, Koopmeiners is more offensive. The Anfield team should consider "breaking the bank" to recruit the Brazilian star. I believe Gomes is a much better investment than Koopmeiners for both the present and future of Liverpool's midfield.

Tottenham Liverpool and Arsenal are in in the race to sign Federico Chiesa from juventus.
Newcastle United watns Anthony Gordon staying despite interest from Liverpool.
Manchester United is intereted in  Bayern Munich player Noussair Mazraoui.


With Thiago Motta not actually looking to use the player next season, i think the best place for Chiesa is the premier league, a move to any of the clubs mentioned doesn’t mean he will start straight away but if he does what does best he can break into any of ten team. Tottenham with Son now more central and a team relying on counters will be more perfect for him.

Gordon is an asset that Newcastle wouldn’t want to lose but With the recent financial fair play restrictions and their lack of European competitions they will be obliged to sale selling some of their star players like him and also Isak

Mazraoui is on United rather because of their quest to find a replacement for Wan Bissaka who is looking to leave but with no concrete reports of his departure I don’t think this move will also materializes

If MU can't sell him, Harry Maguire could be out for the final year of his contract and must know that he will only get the chance to play if a player is injured.
Maguire stayed last season, and things turned out well for him, albeit because of the huge number of injuries the club recorded last season, i remember West Ham were very close to signing Maguire last summer, but the deal fell through, i cannot remember if it was West Ham that pulled out of the deal or if it was Maguire that rejected them at the last moment.

That being said, if United has a fully fit squad next season, Maguire would struggle to play, he might not be a lucky as he was last season. I often advise that players stay and fight for their position, but only for a few years, now Maguire has to leave and move to a team were he is first choise CB, it might be the revival that his career needs.

There's every possibility that few academy players with great potentials might be promoted to the senior team especially in the defensive positions but what I don't think the club is going to sign another defender again this summer. The current set of defenders in the club are all world class players and if not for the case of  injury that might happen to any of them, I don't think Real Madrid currently needs a defender. Eder Militao, David Alaba, Antonio Rudiger and three world class center-backs at the club and if they remain fit, Real Madrid would not be needing any defender in the center back position
You know why I have always rated Real Madrid to be the very best team, they stand out above others because they're able to accept failure, pressure and reciprocate without having any doubt check problem. You're right though, Real Madrid will be put pause momentum toward signing potential players because the scouting team have done a great thing by bringing in the best ones to Santiago Bernabéu. The president and the coach will stick to the current ones.

Not seems like that for Olmo.  Tongue  I agree with Leipzig though, this offer is really ridiculous. But of course Barcelona has no other way of affording both of Olmo and Williams. If Leipzig accepted this offer, the highest amount of money they get would probably be 40 million euros in instalments.  Grin  Because I don't feel like Barcelona can win even a La Liga title unless they improve squad quality.

Barcelona's proposal is like offering Leipzig for the use of Olmo up front, then pay him later. If Leipzig has rejected Barcelona's offer, it makes sense. Finally, Manchester United can step in to take Olmo from Leipzig. The ridiculous proposal by Barcelona has proven how Blaugrana has no money to buy the new player.
Leipzig wants 60 millions cash up front for any team that is keen in acquiring Olmo from this germany club. I wonder why Laporta never cared about his club's finances. He keeps forcing it to buy expensive players.

I'm sure Barcelona may go bankrupt if it keeps using this transfer strategy. Also, Barcelona still owe lots of money from the previous transfer.

But for Williams, they should do whatever they can. Even the fans are trying to finance them over Barcelona TikTok account you know. The same comment exists in all those donations: For Nico Williams.

But, accepting donations from deculs must be shameful, you know. It is caused by the current management's failure to fix its financial problems.

I will be expecting Madrid to sign some defenders or promote any from their academy because they really need defensive reinforcement. Without all the key players they have in their squad, they can lose matches anyhow, which will affect the team.

From last season, Madrid has having some defensive problem, but their strong defensive midfielders made the defensive errors not visible by many people. David Alaba is not consistent due to injury, and Nacho left the team for Al-Qadsiah FC in the beginning of the transfer window, which is why Madrid went for William Saliba in order to strengthen their defensive strength, but unfortunately, Arsenal is not ready to let him go.

I will be expecting Madrid to sign some defenders or promote any from their academy because they really need defensive reinforcement. Without all the key players they have in their squad, they can lose matches anyhow, which will affect the team.
Is this weak point a big gap in last season? I don't think so because statistically last season, Real Madrid conceded very few goals, which means they have a pretty strong defense. But it is true as you say because Real Madrid has improved quite a bit on the front line with the arrival of Mbappe and Endrick who are ready to play this season, the midfield is also quite strong. So Real Madrid will of course focus on strengthening the defense sector in this transfer market.

Alaba has not yet recovered 100% so he is highly doubtful at the start of this season. I think Ancelotti has a way to solve it because he is a pretty good tactician in building a strong team. Apart from that, several well-known defenders are starting to be linked with Real Madrid and I don't think Real Madrid will be careless in doing so now.
The latest news is that Madrid plans to join the competition with Man United in the hunt for the signature of Matthijs De Ligt, Bayern Munchen center back. Matthijs De Ligt is most likely more willing to move to Santiago Bernabeu, and Bayern Munchen management has also reportedly rejected an offer from Man United because it is considered too low. Ancelotti certainly knows his team weak points well, and we can see that last season Madrid experienced a center back crisis. In addition, until now they have not prepared a replacement for Carvajal, it seems that Ancelotti is more focused on recruiting a center back first.

On the other hand, Madrid midfield and front line are indeed beyond doubt, Ancelotti has a number of top players in the main squad, and also has rotation options that are no less good. Matthijs De Ligt could be the right replacement for Nacho, and overall there is no excessive concern about Madrid's strength next season. I assume that with the squad that is currently available, Madrid will be able to defend the trophy, especially the La Liga trophy which they will probably win more easily than last season.

Harry Maguire is a player that has been known for being persistent in terms of penury. When this guy was at his very low, he was ripped of his captain band and he was also been offered to West ham for transfer, but he insisted that he will remain in Manchester United to fight for his position. Even against everyone's believe, went through the criticism, the media war and came out victorious. He became one of the formidable forces of Manchester United defense last season. Idea for belief that they arrival of the 18 year old boy in Manchester United is not in any way going to hinder his performance. As long as I know, Maguire has a lot of experience more than the 18 year old boy. So it is expected that should be a kind of synergy between him and the young boy to enable the young boy learn from his huge experience and that little competition that is going to be created will benefit Manchester United defense.
What I saw last season was constrained to the issue of transfer fees because Manchester United set a large enough price for Maguire, who indeed in the previous 2 seasons he made a lot of mistakes which actually resulted in his declining performance and it was not uncommon for him to be ridiculed on social media.

Indeed, from a mental point of view, Maguire is actually strong and it cannot be denied from him who remains standing even though he gets a lot of criticism not only from football lovers but even from Manchester United fans themselves but he remains firm in his stance. It's just that with Yoro in the current squad he is also not an option for Ten Hag at this time so it would be better for him to find a new club because after all he is now like not really needed especially with the arrival of several players in defense who make him even more eliminated.

On the other hand, Manchester United are also not much of a choice. Maguire's contract will end in 1 season rather than him leaving on a free transfer, it is better to sell so that at least there is a little profit to be made to increase their finances.

Tottenham Liverpool and Arsenal are in in the race to sign Federico Chiesa from juventus.
Tottenham have the upper hand in this transfer for him because of the underground relationship between both parties. Any of the club that manages to bring him would have landed themselves a very quality fine player who showed us a bit of what he can do in the just concluded Euro 2024 competition.
However, if you look at some news, it is clear that Maguire will still be at Man United, in his interviews and when talking about his presence at Man United, he said that he is still part of Man United and will remain at the club to win big trophies in the future.
Maguire remaning in Manchester United increases their defensive options. Maguire has improved, not a bad choice of player to still keep.

Real Madrid and also Rüdiger have received very high offers from Al Ittihad, but the club and the player are currently not interested in a change. I think Rüdiger's decision is important and right, he currently plays at one of the best clubs in the world and is a very important player there. In Saudi he would earn more money but his career would be almost over.
Like you rightly said, Real Madrid is reported to have received tempting offers from a Saudi club on behalf of the club's defender Antonio Rudiger but even before reading about the club's response, i was never expecting Real Madrid to accept such offer considering how important the German defender is to the club at the moment. Maybe in the nearest future, Antonio Rudiger will be joining a Saudi club but for now, he's focused in his role at Real Madrid and is working towards bettering his impressive performances of last season with the club.
Surely, if we talk about the next few seasons, maybe it will be an alternative for the German defender, especially when it is an option before retirement. However, at the age of 31, it is still quite convincing that his performance can still be that good and compete at Real Madrid. And of course he and Real Madrid rejected the offers already exist. Moreover, currently Real Madrid is indeed focusing on improving its back line, so they actually want to add more defenders to further strengthen the team.

Harry Maguire is a player that has been known for being persistent in terms of penury. When this guy was at his very low, he was ripped of his captain band and he was also been offered to West ham for transfer, but he insisted that he will remain in Manchester United to fight for his position.
Maguire's contract at Man United is still until June 30, 2025, and it might be quite difficult for him to find a new club that wants to pay him a fairly high fee and also a high salary. While we all know that Maguire's performance, ahhhhhh , no need to ask anymore.   Grin Cheesy

However, if you look at some news, it is clear that Maguire will still be at Man United, in his interviews and when talking about his presence at Man United, he said that he is still part of Man United and will remain at the club to win big trophies in the future.

Harry Maguire's future at MU is in big question. Especially after MU recruited 18-year-old center-back Leny Yoro for $68 million from Lille. MU is still planning to recruit other central defenders. Bayern Munich's De Ligt and Jarrad Branthwaite are being actively sought after by MU. Should Harry Maguire stay as Erik ten Hag no longer values ​​him?

His contract expires next season and I actually question Ten Hag not releasing Maguire last season when there were several clubs including West Ham who were interested in his services but the price was such that they had to stop negotiations.

Now with the presence of Yoro in the Manchester United squad it is clear that this will bring a situation where Maguire is increasingly forgotten, just like Van De Beek who is slowly disappearing from the squad that ends up leaving for now.

Maguire will also definitely be the same even though this can still be used as an option for player rotation but with his contract almost up, it would be better if there are still those who want his services for next season he is released even though it is certain that Manchester United must be willing to lose their money because they see Maguire's value now it is getting lower when compared to his arrival to Manchester United before because if I'm not mistaken at that time Maguire was brought in with the status of one of the most expensive defenders.

Galatasaray have made their final offer for Wendel. According to previous reports, the Wendel transfer file was closed, but it seems that Galatasaray is insisting on this transfer. Zenit want 25 million Euro but Galatasaray are offering 20 million Euro and a share of the next sale. Honestly I don't understand why they are so insistent on Wendel, he's not that good a player. There are many alternatives for that kind of money. His goal and assist stats are quite ordinary. The truth is that if Galatasaray pays that much money and the player doesn't play well, it will be very bad for them, so I want this transfer to happen. Grin

promoting academy players is a good idea but I think Real Madrid needs to sign players with full grown experience while their academy might act as back up since it won`t be easier like last yea, other teams are spending to improve their squad. Though I think aside from Leny Yoro which though they took non challantly they have not showed much interest to other defenders aside Saliba also though I think they maybe scouting for players themselves for this unknowingly to public notice

Making it to a club like Madrid is no big joke, any player on the team is readily accountable for a positive results in their every match, let me believe nothing has changed yet. Madrid still have Rudiger, Carval, Mendy, Alaba and many good defenders that can live to such standards but getting extra is definitely a good idea incase of injuries.

Madrid are in best form whether they add or remain this way, the squad is fit to attain as many titles they deserve this season.

That statement I think came from a place of absolute belief that he'll always be preferred to start ahead of Yoro but that doesn't mean that the club manager Erik ten Hag will play to his card. For Harry Maguire to remain a regular at Manchester United next season, he must prove to the manager that he's worth starting games ahead of the other center backs in the team.

I'm also not expecting Rüdiger to leave this summer. He is the best defender Real Madrid has at the moment. I don't even think it is open to discussion.  Grin  He is one of the best defenders in general these days as well. Even the most capable midfielders and strikers are having big issues against him. You would remember Haaland from last season matchup.  Smiley



When it comes to Guardiola, I think he is lying. He just doesn't want to make his plans clear obviously. Manchester City might not sign a star player maybe but they would sign some more still young talents.

Eberechi Eze has been in rumours recently for example.
