Victor Osimhen's career has been played with by Napoli who want to make a huge profit but as you say paying him 120 million is unreasonable. Any team will think again after seeing the results of this season where Napoli experienced a decline in performance. Osimhen was very unlucky because he should have received offers from big clubs in the transfer market last season, but instead chose to stay. After the change of new coach, his role was no longer the same, Antonio Conte preferred other options rather than using Osimhen as the main striker.
In my opinion, if Osimhen wants to leave immediately, it is better to lower his market value and ask Napoli to make his departure easier if it is no longer needed.

He has said that this is his last season playing football and this EURO is the last tournament he will participate in with his country before he retires completely from football. I think he will be committed to what he said a while ago and what he said has been confirmed. Although we would certainly be happy if he decided to postpone his retirement for at least one more season. But it looks like that won't happen.

He has an academy and he may focus on that when he decides to retire. Or maybe he will take a coaching license later and start his career as a coach.

This is what is interesting, usually quality coaches are born from players in the midfielder position and Kroos is the player who occupies that position. And not only that, he is also the mastermind of Real Madrid's attack, how his genius can have a big impact on Real Madrid. Hopefully what I say can happen, yes he can take a coaching license while managing the academy he owns.

I don't know why Laurentis chose to put a very big amount on Osimhen or is it that he does not want him to leave Napoli. If the player wants to leave fine, no need of using huge amounts of money to withhold him back. 120 million is way too high for a player that was not in his best form last season in all competitions that he played. Assuming it was when Napoli just won the league when Osimhen was super hot, no doubt PSG or any other clu would love to pay.

I think part of that also depends on the player himself because if his contract has expired with the club and he decides to leave the club and not to renew the club, I think he can leave but only that he will leave maybe as a free transfer just as mbappe did to Real Madrid, but even that they are still millions of clubs looking to accept the likes of his brilliance in their club.

If you want to make a big profit in the previous few seasons, the market value for Osimhen reached 150 million euros because of the many requests for him offered by several clubs. But Napoli did not let go even though the incoming offer most likely did not touch that price. Inconsistent performances were affected by injuries and he had problems with the previous coach so that playing time was quite limited and made his individual skills almost invisible last season.

The timing was not right because Osimhen should have been released last season because many clubs wanted him. Now for Osimhen's market price is not as expensive as last season and there have not been any serious offers for him. Conte is not so interested in Osimhen it seems so he gave Osimhen space to leave but there have been no offers from other clubs.

What's actually in Conte's head, Osimhen is better than Lukaku. It's really selfish that Conte want to sell a good player just because he want to sign his favorite player, he's nothing different with Ten Hag that sell Ronaldo and sign Netherlands players.

Barcelona lack of funds.
Real Madrid already have many strikers.
Only PSG is possible, if Kvara really want to leave Napoli.

However, since Conte says like that, I think Kvara will stay in Napoli.

Speculation about Osimhen future until now is still unanswered and the team that previously wanted to recruit Osimhen actually withdrew one by one, currently Osimhen has no guarantee to enter the line-up that will be implemented by Conte next season, reportedly currently Conte is more interested in bringing in another striker who he considers more capable of becoming Napoli main striker next season,  So this is what makes Napoli currently want to sell Osimhen, but unfortunately the high price set by Napoli today makes many club clubs that were previously interested in recruiting Osimhen actually withdraw and prefer to look for another striker who does have a reasonable price.

Chelsea, Arsenal and PSG have previously tried to get Osimhen, even reportedly there are Arab clubs that are willing to pay and open the release clause that they currently have, but until now we have not seen any active movement from the Arab team to recruit Osimhen, currently actually the Serie A transfer market has not been opened so maybe the club club that is interested in Osimhen is still not actively moving.

There are quite good numbers of talented players in the market when we're talking about football transfer windows. But the issue is their clubs, they will fight really hard to absorb all pressures because elite teams keep signing best players. Napoli will grab hold of their most important player because he's essentially needed in the frontline. Victor Osimhen is a good player but his market value keep increasing based on the impressive stats he has possess in the club.

Toni Kroos is a talented player and was as successful a midfielder for Germany as he was for Real Madrid. He spent most of his career at Real Madrid. The star is out of contract with Real Madrid this season so the big question now is whether the star will perform for another club or retire from all forms of sports. If you look at all the other older stars you will see that many older footballers are still involved in football so I think a player who was involved in regular football will not retire from football so soon. Maybe he will start his football career again by going to a club outside of Europe or Europe.

Douglas Luis can be official in the following hours, operation worth 70m€. around that.
His wife/girlfriend should also leave England for Juventus Woman team.

Kean basically done deal from Juventus to Fiorentina.

Only a few of the tens Barcelona, Real Madrid, and PSG rumors were real; the rest were cheap fake rumors. This means the media spread and exaggerated fake rumors for their own gain. If Napoli didn't want to sell Kvarat, their anger was clear.

Conte says Kvarat may be involved in his next Napoli project. Napoli repeatedly denied selling their players, but the media kept spreading the story.

As you said, the media aggressively predicted Napoli would sell Osimehn, but it never happened.

Last season is possibility for Victor Osimhen values reach above 150 million euro because his top performed and become Serie A top scorer, but inconsistent performance in this season I doubt any team braves for buying him around 120 million euro although PSG with stable financial seems not interested spend much money for Victor Osimhen get donwtrend performance this season.

Napoli's manager Antonio Conte are welcome for every team interested for signing Osimhen but recently still not any teams have give official bid offer interested with Napoli's central forward. Its make bit difficult position for Antonio Conte because he need much money for signing his interested striker Romelu Lukaku and Chelsea have announce for selling him without any swap option.

Nobody will foolishly spend 120 million solely on Osimhen. We have several teams linked to Osimhen, but they have dropped their interest in buying Osimhen from Napoli. I remember when PSG made a $100 million offer to Napoli, but Partinopei turned it down. I thought it was a stupid decision to keep him in Napoli for much longer.

Even Arab clubs are unlikely to be interested in acquiring him from Napoli at such a price. Osimhen's performance was so terrible last season. If I were Laurentis, I'd be accepting PSG's offer rather than waiting for Osimhen's price to go down. 

Osimhen is going to be another ansu fati who priced 100 million and then went to 10 million. 

From way back in the eighties and nineties, I know what it means for Brazilians to play for club like Juventus,Parma and Ac Milan. I can clearly understand his moves. He is a top quality player in midfied and will bring so much confidence and balance in midfied for Juventus under Thiago Motta. Godspeed to him in his new phase.

Why not Victor Oshime? I wonder why they're taking too long to achieve that. Alexander Isaak is a top quality striker anyways in the Premier League Competition, I don't know if Newcastle United will easily let go of him.

Alvarez needs to leave to get enough game time. The thing is that, he is not forcing the move outta the club in my own opinion, because if he is doing that, there's no way on earth a club can hold down a player who wants to leave the club completely. I love Alavraz, I don't want him as a second striker no more to Erling Haaland.

Screw Manchester United, they should do whatever they want to do with the club. They should sign defenders and midfielder's already... Smh.

Many players have shone during EURO 2024 so far and perhaps one of them is the fantastic performance of Georgian goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili. Since the meeting against Türkiye he performed very well even though in the end they had to lose in the first match. Then most recently last night against Portugal he also appeared very convincing, repeatedly thwarting Portugal's chances and in the end he didn't concede any goals at all.

With this extraordinary performance, at least with Georgia he still managed to finish in the best third place in the group stage and qualify for the knock out round. Giorgi Mamardashvili can now leave Valencia and indeed the club is planning to sell him because they have found a new goalkeeper. His fee is only around 35 million euros or a little more but does not touch 50 million euros and I think he is a good option for a team that is looking for additional strength for the main goalkeeper position.

The contract until 2029 is very long and has been confirmed after seeing the news just now.

What? Isak 120 million EUR from Newcastle to Chelsea? Will Chelsea dare to pay him, this is too expensive Chelsea can take other options that are better than Isak.

Not sure Barcelona will get him, Alvarez will stay at Manchester City unless the offer from Barcelona is high.

Isn't Manchester United's new sponsor Snapdragon? Means the name Old Trafford will no longer exist...
Erik Ten Hag has renewed his contract, some staff will be replaced rumor is Ruud Van Nistelrooy will be part of Erik Ten Hag's project.

I think that Osimhen will leave because he is already at a break with the club, it is now certain and this will certainly lead to the sale because Conte said that he has to leave and in an interview he actually said that he is ready to deprive himself of a player like Victor who even if he is a great player but given the conditions he is ready to give him away then now we need to understand who is willing to spend 120 million euros for a player like that, surely some Arab club lol

Manchester United are currently still hunting for players, they have prepared several names for them to recruit before the transfer market closes, it seems they are looking for young players to bring into the squad and hope their performance can be stronger compared to last season. So they will sell some Older players are not really needed at the club. There are quite a lot of Manchester United players who are in danger of being sold and it seems like they want to overhaul their players on a big scale.

One of the Real Madrid players from Turkey, Arda Guler, seems to be being targeted by Manchester United. This player is still very young and I saw Erik Ten Hag recruiting young players to be used as investments for the club. I think Erik Ten Hag wants to try Chelsea's tactics by recruiting young players but without realizing that young players alone are not enough because the squad also needs senior players to help the gaps that will occur on the field.
But I think Arda Guler is definitely reluctant to leave Real Madrid, he is at a big club with a more confident future, but at Real Madrid he has not yet played full time.

Maybe, that could be the scenario, yes, as you said. however, previously the option to make Joselu permanent was quite widely reported, it was even reported that Joselu was exploring other options even though Real Madrid was willing to make him permanent from Espanyol, but considering that Real Madrid would welcome Mbappe and Endrick, Joselu apparently chose to join the club in the Qatar League. yeah Mbappe's presence plus Endrick's entry into the main squad adds to the queue on the bench, that's why I'm quite sure that Joselu thought about it before he chose an offer from another club which ended with him leaving. Jeselu is not a star player, but with Real Madrid he was the key to their squad's victory. moreover, in a crucial match. that is also Real Madrid's option, because Madrid still needs a pure striker when the main players have difficulty scoring goals. moreover, it is not certain that Endrick will be given many minutes to play. at the very least, he needs adaptation before achieving chemistry with his teammates.

However, theoretically, with the presence of Mbappe and Endrick plus several other players as team requirements, Real Madrid becomes a much more competitive team. however, we cannot yet speculate too much about how they will play match after match. but what is certain is that Real Madrid has players who will become long-term regeneration, they have dangerous young strikers as well as their midfielders. well, maybe next Madrid will focus on updating its defense sector.

For Osimhen this is still very possible to happen, especially with the situation of Osimhen and Napoli, which this season is starting to stretch but for Kvaratskhelia this is still a little difficult.
There are some rumors that he has previously rejected PSG even with a large offer even though this is still unconfirmed but it is likely that this could also happen because Kvaratskhelia started opening talks with Napoli about extending his contract.

It's just that if he really wants a good enough condition for his career then making the choice to go to a new place I think it could be a very good thing because after all, seeing the potential of Napoli at this time and next season which will only be in Serie A alone will not make him satisfied and of course moving to a club that has many opportunities to play in the Champions League then it could be a good choice.
