So it is now officially happened.

Mbappè to Real Madrid, he will wear number 9, free agent yes but it is rumored to had a 100m € bonus.

And I think it will be the new trend now, let contract expires to have big money at the sign.

One of Germany’s most decorated footballer this is certainly the right time to give youth the chance to showcase their talents. I don’t think any of the current or active German players have the stats that this man has in international games for Germany. Golden boot winner at the World Cup, youngest teenager to do it then, numerous golden both runners up. There wasn’t a Germany world without the spectaculars from Thomas muller. He is surely retiring in high, and he left German with a worthy replacement in person of Jamal Musiala.

As for club football I think he wouldn’t also go past his current contract with Bayern Munich, even if he intends to continue playing football it might be outside the club he has spent his entire years at. And I don’t think Muller will be playing for another European club aside the Bavarians. He might wants to explore outside Europe too but I doubt. So the club football ending might be here too sooner or later
I totally agree with you. Thomas Muller has done so much for German football and now it is time to give younger players chance. He has had amazing career winning many awards including the Golden Boot. He is legend in German football. He might keep playing club football but he will probably stay with Bayern Munich until his contract ends. He might consider playing outside Europe but it is unlikely he will join another European club. Muller time playing club football might be coming to an end but his legacy will live on. New talented players like you mentioned Jamal Musiala will carry on his legacy and inspire the next generation of German footballers.

Muller is the third player to have the most caps with Germany so I don't think there is any reason for him to stay longer in the German National Team at his age because after all he has contributed a lot including for some of the achievements that Germany has recorded in the decade-plus he has been in the national team.
This is the right time for Muller. Although the results of the Europa League did not really match expectations but on the other hand we also cannot deny that Germany lost to the champions for the Euro so it is a matter of deserved even though they lost. Now it has become an inviolable decision so we only need to appreciate Muller's intentions well because after all he only retired from Germany not for inter-club competitions so we can still see the game from Muller at Bayern.

Klopp may want to work again after resting for a few years. Even at that time, I'm sure he will receive offers from top teams. I like Klopp's management very much. He was a coach who brought Liverpool together. Now it's time to rest and then he will decide whether to work again or not. I think making time for his family is his priority right now.
I've seen his name pop up here and there as a candidate for several national teams already. I guess that's to be expected since he's a popular coach. I believe if he ever returned to football management again managing a national team is probably his next step. I read somewhere that the US national team contacted him already, but he don't want to accept the job. Makes me wonder whether the US national team seriously believes they can get him or if it's just a publicity move.

Klopp took a perfect decision by resigning from that managerial position to protect his reputation and dignity. Klopp actually offered his best service to Liverpool but you know no club gives a damn about what you have helped them to achieve if things start getting bad for you. He already puts himself in a good position and many clubs will be eager to hire him if he offers himself on the market but life is not only about making money, there’s a time one should be engaging with other aspects of life and relatives.
Of course, we all know that money is not everything. Toni Kroos and Jürgen Klopp were the people who put the family first. While Kroos announced his retirement at a relatively young age, Klopp preferred to rest a bit. I find their desire to spend time with their families reasonable. They are both people with great careers, but some choices must be made at the right time, just like the choices made this year. I wish them both success in their careers.

Smart is not enough, there must be skills
Victor Osimhen at the Chelsea realistically looking possible but for this we have to go for some favor from the Napoli president which is insisting for the high fees which is not coming from any club and things are going tense day by day because we all know Osimhen wants to leave this club and having some other place for his rest of career, but Napoli management is not cutting about their asked price target which is creating problem even as things are going Napoli can take good advantage if they are having their policy soft about sell of this player, but personal ego is going to hurt all.

Antonio Conte which is now having new job as Napoli coach surely going to be had perfect if we have Osimhen for another season but as we have condition here at the Napoli it's looking not easy now we are having end of the Copa América and Euro 2024 which will bring more good options for the many clubs so we can hope this all will be also ended on positive.
There is no Chelsea in the hunt for Victor Osimhen now only PSG and Arab clubs are interested in the Nigerian player, but it would be a shame if Osimhen had to accept an offer from the Arabs at a young age he can still even shine in Europe, my opinion is that he will go to PSG towards the closing of the transfer window.

Although Fabrizio said there was no proposal submitted by PSG but so far seriously what I see, other news says if any center attacking player leaves PSG will focus on Osimhen then obviously he means Mbappe right?
So far the decision is in Napoli who want a high price for Osimhen so it could be that this negotiation will be even tougher.

I agree. This is Klopp's final decision. I don't expect him to return to his job all of a sudden after saying that he would take a break. He even stated he might not return anytime in the future. But I would really like to see him back one day as he is a really valuable manager.  Smiley  His journey with Liverpool and Dortmund was so special. Both teams are grateful for his work in these years.

I believe he could think of returning after a break like 1-2 years. He managed teams for 20+ years. It is a really huge career for sure. But maybe he could return for one last time if he misses being in competitive football.

If Jürgen Klopp should return to a club as a coach at some point (he will pause for at least a few years), I would like him to take over a traditional club where there is a big fan base that has been waiting for the title in the league for ages and there he should then lead the respective club to the title. I wouldn't want a strong club for
him like City/Madrid/Barca.
Jürgen Klopp has been in charge of Liverpool continuously for a long time and he left Liverpool this season and he may be on a break for a long time and from the break he may take charge of one of the teams and start the next phase of his coaching career again. As he is a legendary manager he should follow all other managers in this case he can only take charge of teams that are already in a very good position. He has always put Liverpool in a good position as long as he has been in charge for Liverpool. But the last few seasons haven't gone too well, but if he were to start his career again, he would try to take charge of a club that would be more likely to succeed. So that at the end people appreciate his career.

Zirzkee being better is not a sure thing. I mean sometimes in football things are clear, like for example Messi had a better career than some third division player nobody heard of, right? But sometimes, when it's close, like Zirzkee versus Hojlund, there is no clear answer, like in a world where we can test both scenarios, you could have 10 seasons of 2024-2025 where Zirzke plays striker, and 10 seasons of Hojlund, and we could see both of them have better and worse seasons, you just don't know which one will be the case this year.

This is why I think it's quite obvious that they made a wrong move, because if they already have a player they spent like 70-80 on, then why make him a bench player? That would only diminish his value and hurt the team.

In my opinion, Musiala was one of the best players of the tournament. He played wonderfully and was one of the names I enjoyed watching, along with Yamal. Müller has achieved great things in the past, but now he too must gradually leave the scene. Great names are being produced in German actors and there is nothing natural about Müller leaving the stage to them. It was a good tournament, but it did not end well for the Germans.

Manchester United have signed Dutch striker Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna. Manchester United will pay a fee of around 45 million Euro to Bologna for this player.
Zirkzee, who came out of the Bayern München youth system and played for Anderlecht and Bologna, will now play in the Premier League. I think he went to the wrong place as a team, even though he was right in terms of league choice. I hope his career continues as he wants.

This player can play well in the Italian league but we shouldn't forget that this is the EPL where even some of the best players come and become flops. I'll still say it that nobody should say  Zirkzee is going to bring the best of Manchester United yet until we see his performance with the Red Devils, we have players in the Man UTD dressing room that haven't played half of what they were playing in their previous clubs so is too early, we know UTD are bad at making a player play his best, is just a matter of time to see this guy in action.
I hope Manchester United did not act too early like Hojlund. Of course, Zirkzee is a little better than Hojlund. I think Zirkzee can be successful in the EPL. A good transfer for Manchester United is on paper. I hope he can quickly adapt during the year and have a better year.
Hojlund might be angry about Zirkzee's move, but remember that the kid was hurt last season. We've seen signs of his ability, but not all the time. Zirkzee has his own problems to solve. It's a new league, with new players and everything. That Hojlund knows about the EPL has to count for something. United has choices up top if they both stay fit. Oh my God, that's huge. With how often these guys get hurt, you need backup to win. There is no doubt that it is a risk. But hey, Ten Hag is the boss, not me. Before we give out prizes, let's watch what they do on the field
Why would Hojlund get angry about Zirkzee transfer to Manchester United when he is hardly fit and unavailable for selection in most of their matches, thereby making it difficult for Manchester United boss to do his job. He shouldn't get angry as there will be many competition that Manchester United will participate in this coming season. The premier league is there, the Fa cup, Caraboa cup and the Europa league. They will both have enough playing time, Manchester United has been in the dark for long and if there is a chance of them coming out from that dark side they need to bring in players that will competitive in every position and that's what Eric Ten Hag is trying to do and I love that. He has to play to impress the coach just like he was doing last season when he is fit to play, if he continues scoring I don't think he is going to lose his place as the first choice striker.

Elsewhere, Thomas Muller has announced his retirement from the German national team and this year's Euro will be the last event he will participate in. It doesn't feel like he has been a mainstay for the German national team at international level, but in the last competition he took part in he started to decline and we rarely see him starting. Despite all that, he will still play football with Bayern Munich next season and his contract will end in 2025.

Isn't this the best decision for a player to make? In conclusion, he is a complete player for both club and country. He has won it all and I don't know what he needs to win again to prove he is a great legend. He was solid as the bonds that binds twithin the walls of diamond and at the same time important for them.when they won the Fifa World Cup Competition. He won the highest goalscorer award that year if i can recall vividly, yes?!

I have nothing but respect for him every time he comes across my head. He is not one of these players that has all the best dribbling skills, but indeed, being a team player and doing the basics of football very well has instilled him in places, won him trophies, these modern days dribblers cannot fathom nor attain.
Godspeed to both him and Toni Kroos in thr next phase of their various lives.
That's right, Thomas Muller decided to retire at the right time because after all he was satisfied with what he had achieved to date. However, if you ask what he wants to win at the end of his career, of course it is the Euro trophy because throughout his time with Germany he has never won this trophy. That's why he was very emotional when he found out he was eliminated from the Euro competition and I think Toni Kross also felt the same way.

But in the end this legend has made peace and accepted the peace within himself to end his career after the Euros are over. He realized that Germany needed regeneration and therefore he gave his place to a promising and talented player. From me, what I remember most about Thomas Muller is the positioning that the SS or other AMF rarely had and Muller had it all. Sometimes opposing defenders will be surprised if Thomas Muller suddenly escapes from guard and scores a goal.

He has contributed greatly to Germany so far and won many awards so his decision to retire from the German national team can be understood considering that he is 34 years old and he wants more rest. There are still many young players who will replace him whose stamina is stronger and he might just Finishing his contract at Bayern Munich which will end next season, there are no rumors of clubs from other leagues wanting to recruit him, so I think after his contract expires, he won't move to any league. His loyalty is only to Bayern Munich and the German national team.

New talented players like you mentioned Jamal Musiala will carry on his legacy and inspire the next generation of German footballers.
Yes, Jamal Musiala will replace the role of a senior player, he has learned a lot in developing his performance. I saw his performance at the Euros this season and it was extraordinary. He is also an important player for Bayern Munich, with the skills he has, Germany is not worried even if they have to lose their senior players.

Compared to Kroos, this is an expected decision, and he is not finished with club football. It will be interesting to see what happens in a year - whether he retires from football altogether or goes to Saudi Arabia. Müller spent his entire career in Bayern, 17 years, and it seems to me that it is unlikely that he will go to play somewhere else for additional money.
Thomas Muller is obviously the face of Bayern Munich. From the young age till now, he has been fully committed to the course of the German giants. I nicknamed him "Bayern machine". It is a pity that he ended his international football in such a not wonderful way. However, he has the club football to make things right. No one is expecting him to play for 90 mins of every match. He should only come in when his experience is needed because there are alot of good forward in the Bayern team.

Apart from the football role, he is one of the players to direct Vincent Kompany in some certain things. Whenever a coach falls out of love with an important player like Muller, it used to be disastrous.

The tweet further clarifies De Ligt's future and if Man United succeeds in bringing him in, next season will be much better. De Ligt's agent has also spoken to Man United representatives even though PSG are also reportedly interested in him, now De Ligt prioritizes joining Man United over other clubs. It seems that Kompany doesn't really like De Ligt's style of play so he is not retained and another reason is to use the money from the sale to recruit other players.
Yes, because Bayern Munich is currently increasingly targeting Jobathan Tah and is working on his move from Leverkusen to Bayern Munich, Man United's opportunity to sign Matthijs de Ligt will be much more likely to be achieved. It's just that until now there has been no clear agreement between the two clubs.

De Ligt's signing should be quite in line with Ten Hag, it's like a reunion later. It's just how Ten Hag can really optimize his abilities at the club, Man United, that will be his consideration. But so far, reportedly, Man United has had to spend £42million to get de Ligt. And they are preparing it for sure.

In fact, Man United's signing was expected to happen last week, but the deal has not yet been completed and is still pending. We just have to wait for the report on the results of the negotiation agreement between the two clubs.

- Man Utd could now sign Jonathan Tah amid De Ligt delay

Ending his national team career at that age makes sense, you could say he left at the most ideal time, at the very peak of his powers. I don't even know how long he will last in football in general, his speed is no longer the same, although his style of play and vision of the game is at an excellent level, he can still teach others how to do it as well
At this point, Thomas Muller did not have much contribution to give in any team he is going to because of his age; he could have just retire just as Tony Kroos did after they got eliminated in the Euro 2025, but he wanted to extend to another team which I don’t think will give the team any positive consistent contributions because right now, he is limited to number of matches been played at Bayern Munich due to his age and strength; although he still have good finishing ability but we cannot cheat nature and he would not last more than two seasons in football again.

If Germany had won the home Euro, it would have been an excellent end to Müller’s career and for Kroos as well, Spain was luckier, they will remember this hand ball play for a long time, but nothing can be changed. Probably only Germany could stop such a Spain... Yes, Müller will spend several more seasons in the Bundesliga without any problems, but it is clear that he is no longer as good as before, he will probably play as long as the coach gives him such an opportunity, and when he starts spending too much time on the bench then decide to end his career.

It is undeniable that with the age of 35 it is clear that in the end this must be done because forcing the will to continue to be in the German national team will be increasingly difficult for Muller so it is very good for him to retire for now.

He is no longer young and Germany is one of the teams that is indeed very good and always one of the favorites when competing so it is certain that he takes into account and gives space to young players to contribute further in the upcoming state competition.
Looking at the Caps that Muller has given for Germany, if you look at the 131 Caps that he has given it seems like he is one of the players who has the most appearances in Germany because he only lost to Lothar Matthaus with 150 Caps and Klose with 137 Caps.
