Smart is not enough, there must be skills
I feel like both Daniel Olmo and Nico Williams will finally end up as Barcelona players, so what happens to Atsu Fati and Pedri if they move in? They need depth anyways.

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.

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.
What kind of offer is this by being paid in installments several times is Barcelona shameless where Dani Olmo is an important player but this impression is really a joke, so it is true that Barcelona is experiencing a prolonged financial crisis but still wants to try to recruit new players.

Their efforts will certainly be difficult and other teams do not want to accept this.

The new news is that David De Gea has become a target for Genoa, maybe he will soon move to Serie A after not playing for a long time because he wants to play in Europe, now he may have the opportunity to do so, see how this will happen? I hope he doesn't waste the opportunity again.

Xavi Simons the player from Leipzig got an offer from Bayern Munich and since he had a good performance Bayern Munich tried to hire this player but he is not going to leave Leipzig to Bayern Munich yet.  
He is under contract with Leipzig until 2027 and he wants to stay there for a longer time. Maybe he wants to stay in Leipzig because the situation in Bayern Munich is not good at all.

I believe that KDB contract is still going strong, it will end in 2025, so that would be the most important part. Next year, when his contract ends, will he renew his contract at City, or will he prefer Saudi Arabia? I mean City could still offer him a decent contract, but this dude is making 20 million right now already, so expecting him to play for less would be naive, he will be offered maybe 100 million from Saudi Arabia, whereas I am sure that City will want to offer something less because he is getting older.

Plus he will probably not get like a 5 year deal like he did last time, so that means he is not going to end up with anything that is getting any worse at all. I am guessing like maybe a 3 year 10 million a year type of deal. He might reject that and accept like 50 million 5 year deal from SA, which could be possible offer for him as well.

This is why I honestly expect him to leave after his contract ends, we shouldn't really be surprised of that. That doesn't mean that he will go, it just means that the possibility is still there and if City is not selling him then we are going to end up with him leaving himself, he just needs to not renew his contract and they will get him for free.

At the same time, AC Milan was very lucky because they were able to get Alvaro Morata easily, there was no drama because Atletico Madrid was immediately willing to let go of the player who brought Spain to become champions at this year's Euro. AC Milan needed an experienced forward and they got Morata a short time after he finished with Spain. Experience should help Morata adapt, especially since he was also part of Serie A when he was in the Juventus uniform. So in terms of play, he is also not blind to the style of play in Serie A.

However, in my opinion, Ac Milan still has to bring in other younger players, because Morata himself will not be able to be used for a very long time because of his age. So AC Milan should at the same time look at younger players for them to prepare for a very long time.
The negotiations went quite smoothly and the club where Morata played before also did not give anything complicated so that AC Milan was a little easier and smoothly getting him. He understood the style of the soccer play in Italy so that it would be much easier to adapt and of course AC Milan was not a strange club because he had been a part of his opponent when playing at Juventus. For a few seasons Morata is still able to play with the best quality but is much better when AC Milan is able to recruit young players as a coating so that both can play alternately according to the needs of the coach's strategy.

Expecting Morata is entirely risky especially if he gets an injury so that it can affect the AC Milan front line. Next season the match will be much more because they play in several competitions so that the team must also be comparable so as not to get fatigue from the core players. If this is problematic it will be very difficult for AC Milan to compete for the title, especially for the Scudetto itself.

Barcelona was recently close to hiring Dani Olmo from Leipzig and they contracted him to ask about their player but it seems the first offer was rejected and Leipzig didn't accept to let Dani Olmo leave the team.
It seems the offer was not good enough and Leipzig wanted to earn more money for their player Dani Olmo.
However, since Barcelona needs this player I think they will try again with a better offer for Olmo.

 

Do you know that his performance during the European Championship uped his valuation and price? There's no way RB Leipzig would settle a lesser fee. All I see is the young man wanting to make a move same way Barcelona wants him. That can only be possible if Barcelona improves the offer from the first bid for Daniel Olmo.

This lad is a magician off and on the ball, I love how he finds himself in space and also create chances. When I look at the Barcelona squad, there's a whole lot he will bring into that side. I still believe he will definitely sign up for Barcelona at the end of the it all.
Barcelona need to sell out the youngin Victor Roque so they can make moves for both Daniel Olmo and Nico Williams.

One more position I believe Barcelona need to solve is the defensive midfied role. Since Sergio Busquet left the club, I haven't seen a good replacement for him truthfully. I don't know if I'm the only one observing this though. They will need that to maintain balance. Lack of finance has been a great limitation towards achieving this too.

In fact, Barcelona is ready with a transfer fee to bring in Nico Williams. But the problem is that currently the club is still waiting for a decision from the player himself.  And if Nico Williams agrees to join, the clause payment process will be carried out quickly. Because a few days ago it was said that Nico Williams still had not made a response regarding the offer, while Barcelona and Nico Williams' agent seem to have reached an agreement. And well, the answer now lies with the player himself. But regarding Dani Olmo, it feels like it will be quite difficult for Barcelona. Because it is reported that Manchester City will even join in the hunt for players to get Dani Olmo. And yes, competing with Manchester City in the hunt for players will indeed be quite tough.

Well clearly this also seems obvious to me, a good goalkeeper makes a great team like Buffon was for example, in Italy there have been many great goalkeepers because there is a great tradition carried forward over the years and these are the results and I believe that Donnarumma is the perfect example that demonstrates how a well-developed young man demonstrates his talent
Goalkeepers who already have talent are often noticed by many people, especially if they are still very young. But a goalkeeper whose talent is not as bright as Buffon's can still be used by certain teams in big matches as long as he can still guard the goal and not make more mistakes. And currently in the transfer market I see more happening in front lines such as strikers than in other lines including goalkeepers, but every team will always look at what they need, not who they can get at times like now.

yes but my point was about the fact that in Italy there are many strong young and Italian goalkeepers like Donnarumma who manage to do the same things he does but then they are devalued because they don't have a foreign name, in Italy it works like this and especially in the series where if you come from outside you are stronger than the others, but this is the problem that has arisen with the arrival of the agents who pump players who are absolutely not up to par but do this to earn money!

There is still 1 more season of De Bruyne's contract at Manchester City, his contract will end in 2025 but I doubt Al Ittihad can get him because of course Man City management will not remain silent for their mainstay player, in terms of quality De Bruyne is still quite good and also his market price is still high so at least if De Bruyne leaves then there will be benefits obtained by the Manchester City team.
I also think so because as long as De Bruyne can still be relied on well by Manchester City in the Premier League, of course it will not be easy for Manchester City to release a player like De Bruyne. Because De Bruyne is a player who can supply the ball well to the players on the front line so that he can still help the Manchester City team to be strong next season even though at this time there are other teams who really want him and can also bring in more money for Manchester City if they want to release him now.

So Diaby choose to joins Al Ittihad, he's a failed player from Aston Villa, he can't perform like when he was in Bayer Leverkusen. Moving to Al Ittihad is obviously ruining his career, he probably will change his nationally to African country since France is full of star players, he has no chance.


Aston Villa has re-signed Philogene back to the club. I expect Villa will use Philogene as Diaby's replacement. And i think you're too harsh by called Diaby has ruined his career. It's hard for Villa to reject £70m from the Saudi Pro League. They'd surely sell, get an equally good player, and have £20m left. Also Villa need a big transfer profit in 2024/25 to avoid failing Premier League and UEFA rules. Diaby is Villa's costliest player per season. Selling him would help us avoid the sanction.

And again, european club can also resign him back again from SPL. Joining the Saudi Pro League has no downsides. But, it lacks exposure compared to if he moves European club.


Will Benzema leave Al Ittihad? his relationship with Al Ittihad isn't that good and Diaby is actually a striker.


Benzema will not leave Al Ittihad. Benzema can play as a winger as well. There's nothing to lose from Diaby's transfer to Al Ittihad.

Yes, Al Ittihad must move quickly to get De Bruyne, but the problem is not that easy because for now it is clear that Pep has confirmed that Manchester City will not release De Bruyne this summer and that means Al Ittihad chance to have De Bruyne must wait until his contract expires.
So far he still plays an important role for the Manchester City squad and we don't know what his future will be like, if there is another agreement with Manchester City in extending the contract then Al Ittihad chances could also disappear just like that.
I agree that Al Ittihad must be able to really approach De Bruyne and convince him to be able to have personal agreement so that in the future it can make it easier for Al Ittihad to recruit him without much drama that has to happen.

All of this is just plan and also maybe our thoughts as football fans, to be able to see the continuation more clearly then we need to wait for the time to come because everything is still just rumor.

Personally I believe that Al Ittihad will not get Kevin De Bruyne next season or with free transfer status, De Bruyne still has very good quality and there are still many top European teams who still want him so that will be a difficulty for Al Ittihad.

There is interest from the Saudi pro league where Al-Hilal wants Vitor Roque from Barcelona and many reports say that Barcelona is open to selling him if there is an offer of more than 30 million euros. No one expected that what was initially thought to be Barcelona's wonderkid is now nothing more than just a source of fresh funds for their next target and as we know, Barcelona currently needs additional funds to realize Nico Williams.

Maybe Vitor Roque's fate is not so lucky because since his arrival at Barcelona, ​​he has not received Xavi's trust at all and finally now he has started to be sidelined and cannot even compete for a starting position. His journey to find a bright path at Barcelona will be increasingly difficult in front of the new coach Hansi Flick who we know is very disciplined and will always choose players according to his plans well. Now the decision depends on Vitor Roque and also on Al-Hilal whether they can pay more than Barcelona wants to smooth this transfer.

I think it would be more logical to wait until next year. Manchester City may send him off next year. Al Ittihad can transfer him for free. The contract fee they will give him alone will put a strain on them financially, but if they want to transfer him, they will also have to pay a transfer fee to Manchester City.
Al Ittihad will have to move quickly if they want to sign him, a personal agreement needs to be reached to prevent the player from leaving for another club. The issue that has been circulating so far is that he will be released when his contract expires, but that is not a guarantee, Manchester City could extend his contract if he is able to contribute to the team's success. Age is just a number, what is most important is his ability to maintain the rhythm of the team's game. Al Ittihad will have to convince De Bruyne if they are interested in signing him, a higher salary offer than he has been getting so far might make him agree to move there.

His arrival had shocked the media and Barcelona fans but it turned out that the competition to get into the main squad was not easy. Vitor Roque was too excessive when he was welcomed in Barcelona and now he has swallowed a bitter pill that his career cannot shine in Europe. Al Hilal is targeting Roque and that also gives Barcelona the opportunity to profit from the sale. Isn't the club in need of a cash injection? Of course this option is an additional opportunity for Barcelona to set a price. Don't get me wrong, the financial condition is very bad so there is no need to be ashamed to admit that they need money. It's time to reduce the players on the bench to be used as money.

The sale of Vitor Roque could be a solution for Barcelona at this time to get some money that can be used to realize their desire to recruit Nico Williams from bilbao, since his arrival in the 2022 season, Vitor Roque has had difficulty developing at Barcelona, ​​his arrival from the Brazilian club at that time It was a hope for Barcelona fans that Vitor could become Messi successor in the Barcelona squad, so at that time they welcomed him very enthusiastically, but after successfully scoring many goals in the Brazilian league, in fact he failed to develop at Barcelona because he had minimal playing opportunities, so I think that's  appropriate for him leave to other club which can give him the opportunity to play more in the future, currently he is still 19 years old and his career journey  is still long, so he should think again about accepting the offer to play in the Arab League even though it is possible that Barcelona will be inclined to sell him to Al Hillal who dare to pay a high price to get it now.

I don't think they're trying to hide their financial situation though. As far as I can remember, their presscon and other reports shows that they admit their financial struggles openly. In fact, this can be a detriment to their transfer activity since a club who want to buy a player from Barca might try to bid as low as possible since Barca needs money to begin with, unless there is competition for the player's signature. Who knows, maybe they will try to orbit more youngsters instead of relying on new signing[1]. CMIIW.

This is a proactive move by Barcelona, I think they are really making efforts to improve their squad from what it looked like last season. Of course that's what it's usually like for clubs to turn down the first offers coming for their players especially when they considers the offer to be below the valuation of the player in question. As expected Barcelona will go back with an improved offer hopefully this time they will go closer to the valuation of the player. But they have to be fast about it, as Dani Olmo is a good player and other clubs will also be making moves to hijack the deal. With Dani Olmo, Nico Willams and Yamal, Barcelona will squad will be very competitive next season. I just hope they will be able to get these players especially Dani Olmo and Williams.

RB Leipzig have rare gem in the club and letting him go will be huge loss from their end. They don't have to sell their key players because that's where their winnings originates, these key men will always bring up the require top expectations. Dani Olmo is top player, he's very skillful with the ball and have gathered enough experience to put his team infront. The day I found out the extra ordinary qualities of Dani Olmo was when he single-handedly thrashed Bayern Munich in the final. He scored an hat-trick to put his team ahead of Bayern Munich.

Barcelona is trying to get some quality players with their low budget that is why they went t RB Leipzig since they have tried so many players and failed along the way.

On the other; RB Leipzig is not a team that do worry when their key players leave them, they are like Dortmund that deliberately sell their main key players judt to get money instead of them leaving the players with them to win them trophies, they have done such things with players like Aubameyang, Jordan Sancho, Erling Haaland, and lots more which is why they don usually win trophies that much.
