Bringing in these names means the likes of Victor Lindelof and Harry Maguire would be obviously gone. You cannot bring in de Ligt, Yoro from Rennes and Branthewaite from Everton and expect these old logs to remain with the club. I would keep Jonny Evans any day anytime, he had a good knowledge of standard and whatever Manchester United use to be during Sir Alex Ferguson. It's enough reason why Erik Ten Hag wants him around.

Yeah, they're doing that and will obviously make double signatures in defense ahead of the new season. De Ligt wants just Manchester United, despite fans of Bayern signing a petition for him to remain with the club, it's clear how he wanta leave the club.

Prone to Injury? That I don't think is completely correct. He'll do better this season. This is the first time hes had such a long Injury.  Having these defense would obviously bring the best out of Andrea Onana.


What will happen to Julian Nagelsmann? He didn't do poorly in this Competition. Jurgen Klopp would love to serve his country anyways. Such a passionate manager.
It's the right call for Casemiro to leave Manchester United, he'll fetch the club enough funds to get a much younger player to replace him in that position. Gladdens me to see Manchester United cooking.
De Ligt to Manchester United would ne a dome deal by next week. Having a player who wants you as much as you want him is such a huge+.

I know that PSG being a money bag team, would come up with a tempting offer that could make Barcelona want to consider selling him, but at the same time I doubt if Barca would even consider a deal for a soon to be 17years old player who's already becoming a world class player, it sounds impossible and what I think is that Barcelona would try to increase his release clause to the extent that big clubs like PSG would keep off their wonderkid. I believe that his performance so far in the Euros tournament has already over impressed Hansi Flick and he'll love to build his attacking line around Yamal. Barcelona might be short on money due to some certain circumstances but their biggest mistake would be letting a star player leaving their team, same way they sold Neymar Jnr and the impact of that was a regret later, however I don't think Yamal is leaving his current team sooner.

They did not reject such an offer simply because there was no such offer, they themselves even confirmed this. Such a sum for such a young player is just insane. Today he plays well and shows results, and next season he stops scoring and gets lost on the pitch. Is that rare? Young players are very often overrated and only one in five break through and establish themselves as a promising player

I really doubt it, because Lamine Yamal is a potential big star for Barcelona in the future. He is still very young, his potential to develop further and become more established will make him one of the top potential players in the world. Even at his current age, Lamine Yamal has been attracted by PSG with a fantastic transfer fee, although we cannot confirm the validity of these rumors. Even if Barcelona were to let go of some of their players, there would still be some who would have quite good value in this transfer window. So, I'm sure Laporta won't do it even if Lamine Yamal's news is true. I read in the last kick, that several Barcelona players are rumored to be on the sale list in this transfer window. some of them are De Jong, Araujo, Raphina and maybe others too. However, whether the news is true or not, what is certain is that some of these players are on Hansi Flick's list of selected players. So far, we have not seen any concrete efforts made by Deco or Laporta. However, I am quite sure that it is possible that the club has a plan even though it is still in the consideration stage. IMO, so far it is difficult to assess the steps Barcelona will make in this transfer window. So, let's just wait for any future developments.

Recap of the day

Jurgen Klopp is wanted from 2 team, 2 national teams.
He already refused the idea on going to be the USA manager but not yet refused Germany, who is his native country.
The idea is that he will not coach next year and he will take a break.

Al-Ittihad is shopping in premier they are goin for Moussa Diaby and Casemiro.

De Ligt wants to go in Manchester right now and Bayer is asking 50m €, the deal is almost done.

Well, maybe he no longer has ambitions in Europe. Because maybe he also realizes that he is already 34 years old. Although I think that age is still good enough to stay in European football for another 1 or 2 seasons. But for Joselu maybe he is finished in Europe. And wants football where there isn't a lot of tough competition anymore at his current age. because at the Qatari club he will indeed get more playing time because he will immediately become the main player there without as much tight competition as at big European clubs. Ancelotti considers Joselu to be one of the important players because even though Joselu is often played from the bench, we know that his productivity is quite high. And he is also quite active in providing quality assists. So Real Madrid actually still wants him even though Real Madrid has brought in a lot of young players. But we know that Real Madrid always respects players who are not even young anymore. and always makes him a role model for young players. But Joselu has made the choice for his own path.

Some will say the player doesn’t have patience to wait while some will say he has gone there because of the money and many offers they’ll shower on him as their player. Whatever be the reason he has gone there, it’s all good for him. For him, he has achieved a lot in Europe already and his age can be attributed to his move also to Qatar. Carlo Ancelotti have no choice than to let him go and what he did was the best for Joselu and also the best for Carlo Ancelotti. You can’t have him benched throughout the season and not allow him showcase his talents elsewhere. And again, you can’t have Ancelotti thinking about him on the bench and looking for where to fix him when he has enough already on the pitch to do the job for him. This will cost the team more to be paying him without work. His decision to leave was the best and his choice of club is best known to him and I won’t criticize him on that because I don’t know what transpired before he finally decided to join them there.

The defense line is a line that still has a big risk for Manchester United, so they are trying hard to bring in new players who can make them even better. I wouldn't say Manchester United's back line performance is bad, but their performance is still not optimal so they have to improve that, one of which is by bringing in new players in this transfer market. If they are serious, I'm sure they will get good players.

Apart from Chelsea, Manchester United is a club that is in the spotlight a lot. If Manchester City and Arsenal are highlighted because they have good performances, Chelsea and Manchester United are highlighted because they have poor performances. This is a common thing in football, where clubs are considered to have big names but then they have unexpected performances, then they will become the subject of interesting discussion by the media.

Lunin's contract will expire next season and until now there is still no clarity on this matter although in some statements although not explicitly but I think Lunin still wants to stay at Madrid but the decision is of course in the hands of Madrid for now whether they will extend Lunin's contract or not.

It's just that if the choice is with Kepa then I think it would be wise enough for Madrid to keep Lunin and give him a new contract especially with the performance he gave this season when replacing the injured Courtois then of course Lunin has the potential to continue to be able to get good performance in the coming season.
Kepa is not a bad goalkeeper but in recent seasons he has experienced a decline in performance and I think if the choice is only Lunin and Kepa then Madrid will definitely choose Lunin.

In this transfer window, Manchester United is moving quickly on players who they think will be a turning point for their success in facing next season with the names of players already circulating.
The defender position is a position that should be improved so I think when they are serious about Matthijs de Light and Jarrad Branthwaite, they have done the right thing.

Am also surprised to see a player like Joselu decides to move to Al Gharafa because even if the tension is much at Real Madrid since the arrival of Mbappe but he should have still consider other European teams that the Qatar league where he can literally fade away over there. Joselu was a player that rescued Real Madrid in the champions league Semi final match against Bayern Munich and ever since then the player have been a major target for many European clubs but since he decided to go to Qatar it's his decision and should be respected.

Even if Carlo Ancelotti want to integrate Guler in the wings and switch Rodrigo to be an attacker but it doesn't really make much difference. Joselu has made his decision maybe he went to Qatar because of money but hopefully he can still consider coming back to Europe in the future where he can become more better and win more trophies just like he won three trophies with Real Madrid last season because winning the La Liga, Champions League and the Spanish super cup after 49 matches and scoring 18 goals for Real Madrid is a huge achievement for the Spanish international footballer. Age is also calling on him because he's 34 years already so whatever decision he wants to take in his football career this is the best time for him to do so.

I think in a bid to repay Joselu for his unbelievable performance in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League game against Bayern Munich at Santiago Bernabeu in the just concluded season was the reason Real Madrid wanted to extend his contract with the club not because the club was lacking a striker any longer. The Spanish international scored two late goals that ensured Real Madrid reached the final of the UCL and instead of agreeing to extend his contract with the club, Joselu decided to leave after seeing the arrivals of two younger strikers like Kylian Mbappe and Endrick.
He saw that his playing time at Real Madrid would be very limited but just like you, I was expecting him to sign for another top European club but he opted to move to Qatar. I think he's already fulfilled with what he's achieved already as a Real Madrid player and doesn't want to continue playing for any big European club again.

Barcelona is having troubling time but as mentioned, and we all know they are also having few players which can give them good funds for building a good team which will be able to have better results and improved performance in this coming season because now they are entering into market and their choices are which having huge tag of transfer fees, so things are never been easy, but they can manage as we all know Lamine Yamal is currently wonder kid and if we have his transfer which is not looking realistically then we can expect good things for them and their squad which will computable in all competitions.

PSG is interested, but Barcelona is surely not go through easily while they are having problems and this can bring huge breakthrough for them in near future even recently they rejected record-breaking transfer fees for the Yamal from PSG which was around €250 million.

I wanna see Lunin stay in Madrid. Being a backup keeper at Real Madrid is far better than at Arsenal. And you were right. Lunin's poor Euro performance has also hurt interest in him. And as far as i can tell, the only club that was being linked to him was arsenal.

But Arsenal also wanted him. They wanted him to be a backup keeper. This was after Raya, who Arsenal already signed permanently. It's a setback for Lunin if he leaves from real madrid then join in a lower class club than madrid.

And i remember, real madrid is keen to hand him a new contract.

Joselu's decision to move to the Qatari league club, Al Gharafa, was completely unexpected. Because I think he still deserves to continue playing at other European clubs. In fact, Real Madrid also intends to extend their collaboration with Joselu. But Joselu may realize that he will no longer be used much at Real Madrid after the arrival of Mbappe and there are still other young players at the club who will make his position no longer important at the club. So he decided to leave. but the club he went to was quite surprising. Because going to a Qatari club was beyond everyone's predictions for this player. Hopefully he is comfortable with his choice.

We have discussed this many times and indeed he went to a club in Qatar after Madrid had previously made Joselu permanent by paying 1.5 million to Espanyol after which they immediately sold Joselu for the same price.
Regardless of whether this is a good decision or not for Joselu in the end we must realize that indeed Madrid's decision is likely to be like that.
Indeed Joselu for this season has become one of the heroes especially with his excellent performance in the Champions League and La Liga when he was given time to play.

It's just that we also have to realize that the presence of Endrick and Mbappe in the Madrid squad next season will make Joselu even more difficult even as a substitute. From the start Joselu was also aware of the consequences when he was borrowed by Madrid from Espanyol he would only be used as a substitute and would be played when he was needed to rotate players so for now with him going to a club that is still possible for him to play and be competitive in the league it is clearly a good choice rather than just continuing to stay without clarity and without being played though.

I want Lunin to stay at Real Madrid. I don't like Kepa at Real Madrid since he has already lost form and I don't think he will develop in Madrid. Chelsea wants to keep their guy. If Courtois is injured, it is best to keep Lunin as a backup. If Madrid loses Lunin, they will miss him because he helped the club very well and is the one who helped Real Madrid qualify against Manchester City in the Champions League and they won the trophy. I notice Courtois is growing old but is still doing well and is fit, so I am thinking he will be better. They should keep the lunin rather than the kepa because the latter requires extensive training. He makes many of mistakes when keeping in the pitch that is why Anceloti don't like putting him in a tough matches. Let's see how he reacts if Lunin decides to leave the club, but I'm sure Kepa won't have much space on the pitch until anything happens to Courtois. Many clubs will come to Lunn because of his performance, and many clubs will not try to pass up this opportunity to a better keeper. Because Courtois is still good, Lunn should go and make history in other clubs because he will not be able to enjoy keeping in Real Madrid if Courtois is still there. So I believe he made the right decision to leave the team and pursue other opportunities.


Now that Mbappe is no longer with the club, I am sure he will have an impact because I don't see any key players like Mbappe in the PSG squad or league. Every season, PSG is the favourite to win the title because I don't see any club challenging them in the competition, so Enrique will just be hiding in the league and thinking he is doing great in the club. Every season, PSG most qualify for the Champions League, but they perform poorly and are eliminated in the competition every time. Now that PSG will not be playing with mbappe next season, let us see how they perform in the UCL. because I believe that is their problem they have not achieved the title before Enrique should do is best and win it for the club because psg have a lot of funs to buy who they wish to buy in the team so i don't no the reason why they can't still achieve to trophy.

If you look at Man United's condition last season, they had quite a problem with central defender and now they are trying to maximize prevention when injuries occur to central defender.
This effort must be made so that Man United can compete with several other teams.
Matthijs de Light would be a good purchase if Man United were successful in making an offer because he is the typical player needed.

Lisandro Martinez is prone to injury so Man United must take this step because without a solid defense it will be difficult for them to compete.

After Joshua Zirkzee, Man United seems to be focusing on Matthijs de Light. Now we just have to wait to see whether the negotiations can run smoothly or it will end in another story. Suppose it were to be a tough negotiation, in that case, Man United also seems to have other options that is making a third offer to Everton regarding the transfer of Jarrad Branthwaite and the plan to persuade Leny Yoro.

If we look at all these efforts, it seems that Man United really wants 2 new central defenders for next season. Maybe this is also a precautionary measure, in case Lisandro Martinez has to deal with his injury again.

Manchester United is starting to move actively in the transfer market now, after completing a contract agreement with striker Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna some time ago, currently Manchester United is starting to try to strengthen their defense which was quite bad last season when they conceded 58 goals, apart from Varane decision to move to Serie A currently leaves a very big hole in Manchester United defense, although Manchester United has Maguire, Bissaka, Lindelof and Dialot, this is not satisfactory enough for Ten Hag at the moment, so that's why Ten Hag is starting to try to bring in Matthijs de Ligt to be an ideal duet partner for Martinez next season
