Manchester United did win to get Leny Yoro but it looks like they are more panicked about increasing their bid considering that their opponent is Real Madrid. Meanwhile, Florentino Perez seems quite relaxed about the transfer of Leny Yoro, who doesn't want to pay more than 35 million euros if the player wants to move to Real Madrid.

Here Manchester United paid €50 million and add ons of €12 million which in total becomes €62 million for Leny Yoro and many people say this player is still not worth that price. The reason is that he is still 18 years young and has one year left on his contract with Lille.

Anyway, apart from all that, there are rumors that are so cruel that Lille will not play Leny Yoro for one season if he doesn't receive an offer from Manchester United and maybe because of that pressure Leny Yoro has to obey Lille to accept a big offer from Manchester United.

Yes, this can still happen. Pep Guardiola has more than enough class to sit in the hot seat to lead the England team. But the England team must devise an extraordinary plan to recruit coach Pep Guardiola. Accordingly, the England team should consider appointing an interim coach to replace Gareth Southgate to convince Pep Guardiola to take over next year. Because coach Pep Guardiola plans to end his glorious period at Man City at the end of the 2024/25 season, this is the right time.

Do you know what else Pep Guardiola wants to achieve in his football career? When he won all the awards for the club. Of course "Lead the national team and win the World Cup or Euro." That's what I think Pep Guardiola expected. Pep Guardiola's presence can bring a breath of fresh air, helping the England team achieve great success in international tournaments.

Yoro don't worth £63m man utd flashed on him, it's too much for such players that has not been tested in other leagues, he only played in French league one, I hope it goes well for ETH this time, because he spend so much on players and the end up not adding any value for the squad.   No doubt Yoro has the potentials but the English Premier league is a different league that required more strength and stamina.

Yoro has to turned than Real Madrid for Manchester United because of the price nothing more,  if Erik's fails to win the Premier this season after spending such amount of money in the transfer widow he should be shown the exit door. 

It's not a very good transfer by Manchester United. You know, Manchester United paid 60 million euros for him. It's too much to get an average player. This is a weird transfer by Manchester United. This was because Manchester United is spending €63m for a kid with 1 year left on his contract at Lyon. This is a usual thing in the Premier League. Mancehster as buying club is a laughing stock now.

It was "OK" when Yoro's price was less than €33m, but Manchester United paid €63m for him is a crazy thing. Yoro needs to tell Meguire about how to survive from lots of criticisms by the fans when he played badly. Good luck to Yorō. He must deal with all of the fans and Press when things go bad for him. But, he's lucky to have meguire.
I can't even believe it. Manchester United have priced out a kid with 1 year left on his contract left €63m.

This sounds bad to me. Also, Real Madrid didn’t want to pay over €30m, and PSG not over €45m. But, United paid €63m. This is why i said that's not a very good transfer by United.

After bringing in Varane, the Como club has now brought in Pepe Reina to be the goalkeeper. Their seriousness in entering Italy's top division deserves to be appreciated because to truly survive for more than one season requires maximum breakthrough. Bringing competition to Serie A must be even more serious. Maybe after Varane and Pepe Reina there will be additional new players for Como midfield.

The Guardian talks about six candidates to fill the space:

- Eddie Howe (Newcastle looks confident to keep him though)
- Graham Potter (He was good with Brighton but I don't know what he can do with English national team  )
- Mauricio Pochettino (He might be a good candidate maybe)
- Thomas Tuchel (He is said to have given a career break)
- Lee Carsley (I don't have much knowledge about him)
- Jürgen Klopp (Same with Tuchel's situation)


No he isn't, as you can see below.    He is no longer England manager officially.

You are right, at this point Pep is not ready to quit club management and switch into National team. Moreover even if he wants to consider managing at a national level it will be Spain and not England. English Fa won't even hire him as they will prefer to hire an English manager. The right time for Pep to go into National team football is not yet here, he is still having a good time in club side and I have this feeling that after his time at Manchester City he will decide to take a break from management same way Klopp just did before considering his next adventure. Many people are already speculating that he won't accept another contract extension in Manchester City after his current contract runs out. But Pep hasn't said anything about this, so it is also possible that he will extend his contract with Manchester City, because he has repeatedly said that he is happy at Manchester.

I am not surprised about Lukaku's situation right now, he is no longer a top striker and Chelsea want to get rid of him as soon as possible. Victor Osimhen to PSG is becoming concrete and we may soon see the deal getting sealed, that is the only way Napoli can be able to fund Lukaku's transfer and sign him from Chelsea.

As for Osimhen, it will be a great move for him to join PSG, they just lost Mbappe to Real Madrid, and Osimhen will be a good addition to the team, he won't be a direct replacement for Mbappe, but he will definitely bolster the team.

Yeah, but he is not English, and a Spanish manager at England feels odd to me for some reason. I do not know why, we have seen different nationality managers at national team all around, it is not a first and won't be a first, but at the same time we are still talking about potential of issues.

I rather keep it English if you ask me, I am not English so I do not have any say in this, not even as a fan because I am not, but in my country if we were looking for a manager, I would have picked someone from the nation itself, there are some good English managers out there anyway, so it wouldn't be impossible to handle that.

The trouble here is that Southgate seems to be staying, he signed back, and he is going to keep the job, sure he missed yet another chance, but federation sees him as someone who at least gets to finals, and they fear that if they fire him and get someone else, the new manager may not even reach the finals, so they think it is better to keep him and lose at finals than get someone else and lose at quarter finals. Which, they are not too wrong about, feels like they have a manager who knows the team as well, a very boring football but at least they are getting some results.

Calafiori is not 100% to Arsenal yet.
Bologna wants 50mil €, according to rumors Arsenal offered 40€.

The deal is not done yet but if they really wants the player I can't see a big problem for them reaching 45m€, they are in premier they have a lot of money after all.

Leny Yoro has become a contest between Manchester United and Madrid, Madrid who previously targeted Yoro to replace Nacho who went to the Arab League actually canceled the recruitment of Yoro because it was too expensive, Madrid withdrawal made Manchester United opportunity to recruit Leny Yoro wide open and now Yoro has been inaugurated as one of Manchester United new players for next season, Yoro is still very young and Manchester United dares to gamble by paying 50 million euros plus an additional 12 million euros at the moment, I think the attitude taken by Manchester United to recruit Yoro is a bold step that by Madrid will not take at the moment, if I am a Manchester United fan then I personally do not expect too much from Yoro at the moment, although he is indeed a talented player but his experience in the tight competition is still very little, so expecting him to take care of Manchester United defense next season will be very risky.

The arrival of Leny yoro at this time seems to make Manchester United no longer interested in bringing in de light, apart from the fact that both have the same position but the 50 million euros requested by Munich are still considered by Manchester United at this time, if I become ten hag then instead of getting yoro alone will prefer to recruit de light much cheaper but have better experience than yoro at this time.

In my opinion, Juventus was ready to give him such a salary, but if they allow him to leave as a bargaining agent, then it is obvious that they will lose more from this. And if Rabiot became a free agent and Real were interested in him as an option to replace Kroos, then I think that for Real it was the best decision to get such a player without paying a transfer fee, in which case they could even increase his salary a little to lure him to to yourself. I didn’t see that Milan was interested in him, but I’m sure that he can now interest a lot of teams.

Klopp is a really great manager and he is always one step ahead in his duties. He always has a good plan about how to improve his club and how to do well against the opponent. Seeing that Klopp has left the responsibility of Liverpool, many people are saying that Liverpool removed him from the responsibility of their club after seeing his performance in the last few seasons, but this is not the case. Klopp could have served Liverpool for a few more seasons if he wanted, but he didn't want that. He wanted to rest and reinvent himself and reinvent himself to bring success to a team again. I must agree with you that when he comes out of retirement to take charge of a new team, he will definitely get a manager's offer from a good team.

I heard a lot of people saying that Manchester United competed with Real Madrid for Yoro and Manchester United won by signing the player, we should all remember that Real Madrid is the best team in the world, if Real Madrid leaves a player for the team it means that they are not much interested in the player, Yoro wants Real Madrid but I don’t think Real Madrid wants the player as the player wants to play for the team, Real Madrid doesn’t want to spend money on a player that his contract will end in 2025 and from my point of view Real Madrid still has another defender that they are targeting that is why they allow the player to sign for Manchester United.

We all know that Real Madrid is capable of signing any player, Real Madrid can sign any player in any amount the club wants but it seems like Real Madrid wants another defender that will be better than Yoro, Real Madrid is targeting Saliba the arsenal player and I believe that the player will be very happy that Real Madrid wants him, so those who are thinking that Manchester United win Real Madrid by signing Yoro should know that Real Madrid is not that serious to sign Yoro and if Real Madrid is willing to sign him he will have been a Real Madrid player since weeks ago.

I read interesting news about Rabiot, Juventus is waiting to understand Adrien Rabiot's intentions. The Frenchman saw his contract end on June 30th and is in all respects a free agent.  his intentions are to leave and find another path that will take him to other championships, there was talk of AC Milan to stay in Serie A, it is a championship that he knows anyway and would have no problems integrating or there was talk of Real Madrid but we have to see if Los Blancos are really interested in giving 7.5 million a year to a player like that

Toni Kroos has retired and perhaps he will share his experiences off the field, but Modric will have the chance to play in Real Madrid for one more year as a great player who will help the players both on and off the field. He will most likely remain a substitute, but I am sure he will contribute a lot to Real Madrid as a player who will step in when the team needs it most.

Pep guardiola coaching the English national team? No, I really don't think so, I think he is more likely to coach the Spanish national team in the future than the English national team, sometimes I find most of this rumours very hilarious, because some of this potential transfer that is being speculated looks very much unlikely from a broader view, but in this pep guardiola case, I am very much positive that he wouldn't be the manager of the three lions in the nearest future, yes it's very much true that impossibilities is nothing, everything is possible, but I don't see this one happening.

And talking about pep guardiola future at Manchester city, though he might still renew his contract at the club, but nothing is certain yet, he might decide to leave at the end of the season, but if his family is very much ok with the city of Manchester, then I feels like he might stay put, because he might put his family into consideration before making any decisions.

Manchester United have a long history of spending big on players who then either end up on loan or sitting on the bench. At best, these players just don't live up to the hype and play below average. We can remember the transfers of Marcial, Anthony, Sancho, Amrabat and Mount.
It seems to me that there are people in the management of Manchester United who are interested in constantly buying very expensive players to apparently take a part of the deal for themselves, because it is very difficult to understand why Manchester pays so much for many players.

Leny Yoro officially signs with Man United and it puts an end to all speculation about him. Previously, he seemed reluctant to accept Man United's offer because he really hoped that Real Madrid would ask for his hand, unfortunately, it didn't turn out the way he had hoped because Real Madrid didn't want to spend a lot of money on the signing.

Although Man United has now got a new defender but, Man United seems to really want De Ligt as much as Leny Yoro. Mason Greenwood transfer to Marseille, would probably make De Ligt's signing more likely to happen.

It is clear that if Pep Guardiola becomes the coach of the England national team then that would really be a pretty good thing for the England national team. In fact, I think the English national team will truly reach the peak of its glory if Pep Guardiola manages to coach the English national team. And it could be that with Pep's quality, maybe England can end their difficult times when they always fail to win the title.

But this is just a rumor in discussions regarding candidates who could replace Southgate. Jurgen Klopp is even a candidate there. But for Pep, I think he will continue his coaching career until his contract ends at Manchester City. And I doubt Pep will extend his contract at Manchester City because we know Pep always wants a new challenge in a new team after he has achieved good results in his previous team.
