Pep Guardiola still wants Kevin De Bruyne to continue with them, so there is a big likelihood that he won’t be joining any other club this transfer window and could stay till his contract expires before think of leaving.


Ederson is a great choice for Manchester City, I don’t know why he’ll want to leave the team and everything is moving smoothly like his service is no longer required in the club again. What could have caused him to want to leave the club when if he stays, he’ll still be the first choice goalkeeper for Manchester City.


This is a nice pick by Paris Saint German, for the player they want, I think a swap deal will work here more perfectly. Jadon Sancho will not even be utilized in the next season by Eric Ten Hag, it’s better he comes to term with them and join them, I think he’ll have more playing time at PSG than he’ll have at Manchester United next season.

That deal is never going to happen this summer, as confirmed by Fabrizio Romano, even if City's first choice goalkeeper Ederson eventually leaves for Saudi Arabia, City wil only sign a backup goalkeeper, as they are going to hand over first choice duties to the current second choice goalkeeper, Stefan Ortega. That is the right thing to do IMO, he has done enough to earn the trust of the club, and he would be elated if Ederson leaves.

I was expecting him to join Saudi Arabia league but it seems we will have to wait an extra year or more to see that happen so It is a big relief for Guardiola and City entirely because i am not sure if it will be easy for them to find a good replacement for him in such a short period. He is an important player and winning him over for another season is a huge boost to them all especially Haaland who needs his services to maintain his goal scoring ability. He is getting old now and so they should be expecting more injuries from him that means they will have to manage him properly to avoid injuries.

Kevin has defended Manchester City for 9 seasons and this season is Kevin's 10th season with Manchester City. In terms of achievements, of course he has achieved everything at every level and that is his greatness. In this transfer market, of course, many media have linked Kevin with Saudi Arabian clubs such as Al Ittihad, but the rumors are not strong because Pep Guardiola has said that Manchester City will not sell Kevin De Bruyne. Kevin de Bruyne is also a legend in Manchester City because he has presented many trophies for Manchester City.

Last season his career was quite down due to the injury he suffered, this season of course he is Pep Guardiola's mainstay because Kevin De Bruyne is fit again and ready to give his best. I am one of Kevin's fans because he is very skilled at long distance kicks and I really like him and hope he can find his best form this season.

Sancho can be successful at Paris Saint-Germain. He seems to have had a good season at Borussia Dortmund. We know you don't enjoy being at Manchester United. He doesn't get along with the coach either. Paris Saint-Germain could be a new start for him and is also a team with which he can have success statistically. I don't think Donnarumma will leave Paris Saint-Germain. If he leaves, he can of course go to Manchester City.

He has been playing for Manchester City for nine years. That's why De Bruyne became one of the symbolic names of the team. Everyone will be saddened by his departure from the team. Of course, this is football, some players will leave and some will come. Modric and De Bruyne are players whose loyalty to their teams is unquestionable. He has many successes at Manchester City. He has been running for this team since he was 24 years old. I think he deserves to quit football in this team. I hope he makes it happen.

What the kelvin has done for the Manchester city it will be unforgettable for them because the guy is a great player he lead Manchester city to achieve so many of goals, even though they want to find achievement they will never get who can hold that same position like kelvin. But it might possible that it will know leave this season again so that him can be with them and add more years with Manchester City, how sure are you that Manchester City might come an end after this season or is it because you hard that kelvin is about to leave the Manchester City.

There are some news here that Fabrizio has debunked as not concrete at the moment, although his comments aren’t ultimatum but he does gets facts compare to the other journalists.

Manchester city going for Eberechi Eze is not that too shocking because the player in question has developed over the years as one of the deadliest wingers in the premier league, so city interest is genuine but I will say it is coming at wrong timing, city have just signed Savio who plays on the left also, they also have Jack Grealish and Jeremy Doku playing through that Wing so I trust that any signing on that wing will require one of the current players leaving.

Al-Ittihad interest in De Bruyne might be because of the his desire to one day play in league but I don’t think this is the right time for the player to depart.

Manchester city move for Gianluigi Donnarumma isn’t concrete at the moment even if Ederson leaves Manchester city are rumored to promote their second goalkeeper Ortega as first choice for the moment, also the Ederson departure is also not yet confirmed because of the price tag city hangs on his head.

Jadon Sancho is someone that looks like the kind of player that suits PSG pattern, with Manchester United looking to sign PSG Urgate and they offered Sancho to the club in the process

Why do they even want Kubo? They still have players like Cody Gakpo and even Luiz Diaz wanting to stay and not to forget Diogo Jota. I'm beginning to think about it the say way with you right now.
I don't think they need that lad and even if they do, don't they need to sell a player before h can successfully come into the squad?

Liverpool should focus on getting a younger defender, maybe with Matip leaving they'll have to replace him or for the Injury prone frenchman Konate.
Both Virgil Van Dijk and Alexander Arnold have been reported to be interested in extending the contract they have with the club ahead.

I felt like this was a good time to finally cash out big from the sale of Kevin De Bruyne, but then, Manchester City and the board do not have such plans for him already. Another months with Injury will definitely affect his form likewise valuation.

I think there are still many who hope that De Bruyne can stay longer at Manchester City. Because it will be very difficult to get a player who is equal to De Bruyne at this time. In fact, I hope that De Bruyne will also get a contract extension for several seasons. And yes, Pep Guardiola has indeed confirmed that De Bruyne will not be sold this season and this player will be retained at least until his contract expires, namely 2025. And actually since the end of last season, Manchester City have planned to discuss extending the player's contract, but at that time De Bruyne is injured and Manchester City will wait for De Bruyne to recover from injury. But after De Bruyne recovered, it turned out that discussions regarding a contract extension were not taking place. So it is natural that there is speculation about De Bruyne being interested in Arab clubs and going there. but fortunately it looks like it's all just rumors and I hope Manchester City can continue talks regarding De Bruyne's contract extension before it's too late. Because I'm worried that a big offer will come to De Bruyne.  And De Bruyne himself is always open to offers that will come to him.

The issue of Kevin De Bruyne leaving to Saudi Pro League might not work since Pep Guardiola is still assuring their fans that he will not leave, maybe after next season since even Pep might leave after next season depending on how their issue resolves with court and the PFA.

Any player Manchester City is bugging for is always wanting to join them because the team has already been built and can win several trophies including Champions League. Since Ederson is leaving Manchester City, definitely Donnarumma can be a good second keeper for the team and he can win Champions League easily than PSG.

It is very unlikely to see Kelvin retire at Manchester City, though that's what many fans would want but the club has this policy of letting old players go. But Kelvin is a legend and I'm happy that Pep Guardiola has now confirmed that he is not leaving this season. I don't think the Etihad faithfuls are ready to let their playmaker leave just like that, but his reign at Manchester City might be coming to an end after this coming season. Manchester City should try as much as possible to get a replacement for him before he finally leaves, but it will be difficult to get a perfect replacement for Kelvin because he is an exceptional player.

Maybe Ederson is getting closer to joining one of the clubs from Saudi Arabia, namely Al-ittihad. because so far I see that Al-ittihad is the most serious in pursuing this goalkeeper. Al-nassr does want it too but they might not make it a priority after getting Bento. Meanwhile, Al-ittihad really needs a reliable goalkeeper for their squad. So paying €50/60 million for Al-ittihad might be a price they can still think about. And as Fabrizio Romano also said, Al-ittihad is trying for this. (Sourch)

And other news from Fabrizio Romano is regarding al-ittihad which looks like they are only one step away from getting Moussa Diaby from Aston Villa and this is also a quite expensive purchase. Because Diaby has agreed to a five-year contract there and only needs to wait for the documents to be reviewed and then signed. So I think it's only a matter of time regarding Ederson too. (Sourch)

Kevin Debruyne will not leave Manchester City anytime soon, he is a very important player on the team, even if last season he was unlucky to have an injury that prevented him from playing some games, but even when he was cured, in the few games he played, notice that the quality of Manchester City's game has improved a lot, Kevin Debruyne can make high quality assists, the way he sees on the pitch is incredible. Kevin Debruyne's age is not alarming, he is 33 years old, he is not old, he can still play for at least 2 seasons.

This is Désiré Doué



He was born in 2005, Bayern is wanting to sign him, but Bayern offered €40m and was rejected and then Bayern made another offer of €50m, Rennes is asking for €60m, from what I read, PSG is also interested in him , this is news that can be read in more detail here:

https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1815712500488306928

my question:

Why are some teams chasing very young players from other teams?

From what I've seen, there are few new players who can do very well, so signing a very young player who hasn't yet proven to be a great player is a very high risk, especially if the team that wants to sign the very young player , it is in a situation that needs good players immediately. I don't know what Bayern intends with this signing

If  Manchester City opt for Donnarumma, he will likely want to leave since he has higher chances of winning the champions league there and also higher standing globally, though he has already made himself well especially during his time at Ac Milan and the Euro 2020 but his fame slowly dropped down since his move to PSG while if he decides to move PSG might just let him go for a reasonable fee since I guessed they have another good goalie, Tenas, who hasn't been given chance to shine more.

Pep Guardiola has spoken out and denied rumors of De Bruyne leaving for the Saudi Pro League, the manager statement could make Al Ittihad bite their fingers. Pep Guardioa has convincingly said that he will start the new season with the same players, and does not rule out the possibility of additional players. This news erases the concerns of Manchester City fans regarding speculation about the future of their captain, De Bruyne is still very worthy of being kept, although last season his performance was disrupted due to injury. Apart from that, we are aware that before the transfer market closes all possibilities can still happen, sometimes the Saudi make offers that are difficult to refuse and sound unreasonable.

It seems to me that we can put an end to this story, Guardiola said that he will not let De Bruyne leave, and he is 90% sure that they will start the season in the current state, new players may come to the team, but no one is going to leave. And rumors about a possible transfer were sparked by De Bruyne himself when he said that he did not rule out a transfer to Saudi Arabia, in fact, this was perceived as a pretext for rumors.

Manchester City may go for Eberechi Eze having a release clause of 70m€.
Al-Ittihad wants Kevin de Bruyne, Guardiola said he will not leave.
Manchester City maybe do a move for Gianluigi Donnarumma.
Ederson will may end to Al-Ittihad for 50m€.
Paris St-Germain want Jadon Sancho.

If De Bruyne stays in the team, the players will be very happy about it. A football player who plays football with his brain. Nowadays, the number of such players is very low. De Bruyne will be of great benefit to Guardiola and City. They will benefit from it this year too, but time will tell us what will happen next year. Manchester City has become like his home, and I'm sure he's very happy to stay in the team. I cannot imagine the Belgian playing for another team, he is a player who has established ties with Manchester City.

If Ederson leaves the team, it is necessary to choose one of the best goalkeepers instead. One of them is Donnarumma. However, I do not know if Paris Saint-Germain will allow this. It will not be easy for them to replace Donnarumma. If Manchester City can bring Donnarumma, they will not have any problems in the goal for many years. Since he is only 25 years old, he can play goalkeeper for many years. A player whose talents can never be doubted.
