According to reports,Arsenal are on the verge of completing the deal for Sporting Lisbon hitman and striker Victor Gyokerers in a deal worth 76 million pounds.The gunners are exploring the possibility of adding an attacker that can get them atleast 20 and above goals every season,and they have identified the Sporting Man as the man who can make them competitive infront of goal.
They already have Karl Hervetz and Gabriel Jesus in that position,but those two are not getting the kind of goals Arsenal want.If they can go on to secure this deal,And also get an attacking midfielder that can be like Odegard,then I believe Arsenal will be very much dangerous comes next season.

In the last two seasons in the Premier League, Arsenal have shown that they are quite a dangerous competing team. the squad coached by Mikel Areta has shown improved performance and is providing tough competition when fighting for the league title. unfortunately, Arsenal again failed to shift Manchester City's dominance last season. That's why currently Arsenal are being linked with several players who play as pure center forwards, they are even rumored to have targeted several names who will be brought to the Emirates Stadium in the current transfer window. although, several names seem to have failed to appear.
Talking about Victor Gyokerers, this Swedish player shone quite brightly when he was a goal scorer with Sporting. he has scored 29 goals, maybe this is why Arteta is interested and intends to bring him to the Emirates. however, I haven't received much news that Arsenal really wants this pure striker from Sporting. because, there are still several names of other pure strikers who have been linked with Arsenal in this transfer window.

Speaking of pure stickers, currently Arsenal doesn't have any truly capable players. As for Enketiah, he was unable to provide something that could make him a regular player with Arteta. that's why, sometimes Kai Havertz is played in the front striker position again by Arteta. yeah, apart from G. Jesus who goes back and forth to the treatment room. however, Arteta still has other names, for example Trossard, who can play in the position Arteta wants. however, we seem to agree that Arteta wants more than last season. at the very least, Arsenal has a striker who can consistently score at least 20 goals a season. Well, currently Arteta is working on it and we are waiting to see which striker Arteta chooses in this transfer window. Likewise with midfielders, even defenders, Arsenal are reportedly hunting for several players that Arteta wants to complete his squad as the competition rolls out.

Even though there was no pure striker after Benzema's death, Ancelotti did not encounter any significant obstacles. Joselu doesn't have the character of other strong strikers, but he really helps the team and has proven it several times. I think that next season there will not be many changes in Real Madrid's attack line because Mbappe's arrival has also added quite a frightening strength and the wing striker position will still belong to Mbappe and Vinicius, and Belingham will still be used as a false nine player.

Benzema's death? What the ...?

Ancelotti did not encounter any significant obstacles, but I am sure that he didn't anticipate it would work out the way it did with Bellingham. At the same time he knew that this is not a solution for the long run. Hence, he decided to give it one season, make the best out of the team that he has and then bring in Mbappe. I believe that there was some agreement last season already. Otherwise they would have probably taken action and brought in some other striker in addition to Joselu. This way they took the risk with Joselu and gave it one more year until finally they have their desired center forward.

I believe we will see Mbappe play a center forward position quite often. Although it is very likely that he has a lot of freedom in the front line and he is allowed to play highly variably. Change positions, sides and so on. I am not sure whether Ancelotti believes that false 9 is Bellingham's best position. He did it well, but that doesn't mean it is his best position and it is not very likely that he will score 20 goals again. I think in a position that is a little bit more defensive, Bellingham can be even stronger and still has his impact on the entire pitch and team.

Yes, I thought Real Madrid would be unstable without Benzema. But everything went smoothly, even doing well last season when they won both La Liga and the Champions League. The biggest credit belongs to coach Ancelotti, he managed the team well with potential young players. Real Madrid is too good for the money spent to get Joselu.
The most notable is player Bellingham, he has integrated into the team quickly, being used as a flexible virtual number 9 player. But next season I don't think Bellingham will continue to play that role. Of course, Mbappé will be the real number 9. And Bellingham is the next midfielder to wear the number 5 shirt at Madrid. Just like the legendary Zinedine Zidane showed before.

Chiesa has been linked with a move to clubs like Manchester United and Bayern Munich. More likely to happen would be the swap deal with Manchester United, moving to Bayern Munich would be difficult since they're trying to sign up the Turkish Hakan Calhanoglu. The arrival of new coaches in these clubs means players will leave and players will come in.

I see him leaving completely. He's already had enough fights with the club as well as Injury cases. After the UEFA EURO'S, a whole lot will be concluded.

Bayern Munich, Yes! Manchester United? Maybe if they can get a swap deal done. Manchester United needs quality players in midfied to partner Bruno Fernandez.

There is no clarity regarding Chiesa's contract renewal at Juventus, while Greenwood will most likely not be part of Ten Hag's plans. So the swap deal between Federico Chiesa and Mason Greenwood might be a good option for Man United and Juventus.

I agree with you. Man United really needs a strong midfielder, and it looks like Man United could get this tough midfielder if their bid for Amadou Onana comes to fruition. Now we just have to wait whether Everton will agree to the offer or they will play tug-of-war.

Viktor Gyokeres is a very incredible player, last season he had very good statistics.

Portuguese league:

33 games, 29 goals, 9 assists



source: https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/viktor-gyokeres/profil/spieler/325443

his market value is saying it is 65 million euros, so I see that Arsenal paying 76 million pounds is a bit exaggerated, mainly because although Arsenal is not achieving stability in attack, they have many players in attack who should have sold them before and then they could pursue other attackers. In my opinion Gabriel Jesus should be sold and as a replacement Arsenal could buy Victor Osimhen and they could also sell Reiss Nelson and Charles Sagoe Jr, they are players who will only be receiving salaries without making a great contribution to the team, by selling them Arsenal signed Viktor Gyökeres, who is an excellent striker.



In this transfer window, Chelsea is surpassing itself Shocked

Willian Estevão here signing contract as Chelsea player valid until 2033!

“Congrats to Palmeiras for the biggest sale ever from South America to Europe”, his agent André Cury says.

Estevão will join Chelsea on July 2025, after playing Clubs’ World Cup with Palmeiras and then… London.

my question:

Will these transfers make Chelsea strong next season?

because it seems to me that Chelsea are thinking they have a crystal ball by signing players looking many years ahead and not signing players thinking about the present (next season). they are once again messing up in the transfer windows. I very much doubt that in the next few seasons Chelsea will be able to win the premier league. This probably isn't even Chelsea's goal. We'll see if they can at least finish in position 5 in the next few years

Chiesa may leave Juventus too.
According to rumors he has refused or not refuse the renew of his contract.

Juventus wanted a "bridge" contract extension for 1 year, he wants a long new deal for a lot of money.
The parts will talk about it after the end of the Eurocup, but if they can't find a deal he may leave for free in one year.

The best solution is to get a new deal or to be sold this year so the club can take some money, Bayern is interested.

From what I know, chiesa has been closely associated with Roma's move; yet, there hasn't been much further information on this matter. Once more, the most recent updates have come from Manchester United and Juventus, as, according to sources, Manchester United is considering swapping Mason Greenwood with Chiesa.
Manchester United is continuing negotiations with Juventus on this prospect. I think Chiesa will not be visiting Bayern as Bayern has not shown any activity towards Chiesa. The old lady should either switch or sell him; giving him another contract extension is horrible. 
Switching Chiesa with Mason Greenwood is also a viable option. I have no doubt Chiesa will be joining United next season. 
Rumors are currently emerging that Chiesa will be a means of exchange to bring Greenwood from Old Trafford, which could actually be a very easy way for Juventus if they want to bring Greenwood.

Greenwood will never be accepted back into the EPL because of previous problems so looking at this, Juventus' chances are certainly very big to bring in this player even though exchanging him for Chiesa is actually a complicated situation where Chiesa is still contributing a lot now even though we know that after he had an ACL His performance has decreased but he is still quite an energetic midfielder, he just hasn't found his rhythm yet.

But indeed letting him go outside Serie A is also the best choice rather than sending him to Roma, which of course could be detrimental to Juventus, so letting him go to the EPL is certainly a good situation to minimize them meeting as opponents.

And Joselu is just a complement, there are no expectations for players who are no longer young like Joselu.
Ancelotti built Real Madrid with sufficient solidity and equal preparation on all fronts so as not to change the team's performance despite player rotation.
And I think Real Madrid will really be very strong in the next few seasons.

Some players who have the ability to play in multiple positions will be very advantageous from Real Madrid. That's what Ancelotti had last season and that will still be true for next season. Indeed, they were able to overcome the lack of attackers even though joselu was present but he was not effective. By looking at that, Real Madrid should be more fortunate if they have additional effective attackers. Mbappe is not a pure attacker, in the Euros he also did not perform well. Maybe Ancelotti should look for another striker, maybe Guirassy from Stuttgart.

You know, Salah's future is still not certain. He is still likely to sign for a Saudi Arabia team this summer. His current contract expires by next summer. Liverpool would like to make some solid money by selling him with a fee. I'm curious about whether he will leave on free agent instead.  Huh

The candidates to replace Salah are rumoured to be these players:



https://www.transfermarkt.com/time-to-replace-mohamed-salah-five-wingers-liverpool-could-sign-for-euro-50m-this-summer/view/news/439428

If I were in their place, my choice would be Kubo. He is a really talented player and I see him one step ahead of the others among these names. He is mainly RW but can be used as AM or LW when there is a need.

Real Madrid bought him for free and loaned him many times. He ended up with Real Sociedad for only 6.5 million euros. Now look at his value... He is a quick learner and I think he can be quite useful for Liverpool in the long term.  Smiley
Since it dawned on Liverpool that Mohammed Salah might leave the Merseyside club this summer, they've been trying to get a player that'll replace him at the club but for player like Salah who's been very instrumental to the club's success in recent years, finding a good replacement will be a very difficult task for Liverpool. Among all the players that are listed, I don't find any of them fit enough to be as prolific as Mohammed Salah have been at the club but that still doesn't mean that they can't perform above my expectations.
For me, the best among the players in the list is Bryan Mbeumo who plays for Brentford. The Cameroon international have been doing exceptionally well with Brentford and already understands how the English Premier League works so I think he'll make a good signing for Liverpool.

Real Madrid is still successful without having a great striker on par with Benzema. but Real Madrid can have this success because they have thorough preparation. And Joselu last season also played an important role in filling this void. The presence of Bellingham, who is only an attacking midfielder, can also cover the shortcomings at the tip of the spear. Because Bellingham is quite productive in scoring goals.

And next season Real Madrid will really be even more extraordinary. Because Benzema's position, which was initially vacant and temporarily filled by Joselu or sometimes Vinicius Jr., has now found a replacement, namely Mbappe. And not only that, Real Madrid will also have a talented young striker, namely Endrick. So Real Madrid will look to have a brighter season next season.
At a time when they are playing without the position that has been their mainstay, Real Madrid can still achieve great success domestically and in Europe. It is true that this is because of their preparation in seeing their weaknesses, and the shortcomings they have can be covered by good performances from the entire team. Joselu, who was thought to be unable to replace Benzema's role, also turned out to be the answer when Real Madrid was faced with a deadlock. Maybe it is true that he cannot be a replacement for the position left by Benzema, but in several matches he has managed to be the difference.
This is also inseparable from the ingenuity of the coach, Ancelotti. Even though he also received a lot of criticism because he was considered a coach who had run out of strategy, we can see that coaches who were considered to have no strategy actually achieved great success with Real Madrid.

Last season's success is indeed a benchmark that even though Real Madrid doesn't have a new striker to replace Benzema, they can still achieve success, but that doesn't mean this can be ignored because last season it looked like they were lacking in the front line and Ancelotti did many of the right things to fill the void.
Recruiting Mbappe is not the only reason but Mbappe is one of the best players in the world and Real Madrid has been targeting him for a long time so a player like Mbappe is really needed in the team.

And Joselu is just a complement, there are no expectations for players who are no longer young like Joselu.

I'd rather the players that has experience in the Premier League Competition. That player from Brentford and the other from Brighton are experience in the Premier League Competition and they will have a huge impact in the Premier League Competition. All that needs be done is just to build relationships with the new teammates.

I love Kubo Take, but I don't think he'll have a massive impact if he was signed into the Premier League Competition ( Liverpool ) I don't even know about Luiz Diaz but I'm sure of Mo Salah wanting to leave the club. Hasn't he won it all already? I love his journey finally. He did well fir Liverpool and will be considered a Liverpool legend.

Arsenal should be smart about the whoever they want as their number nine, the main purpose is to win the Premier League Competition, I really do want to see that happening.

According to reports,Arsenal are on the verge of completing the deal for Sporting Lisbon hitman and striker Victor Gyokerers in a deal worth 76 million pounds.The gunners are exploring the possibility of adding an attacker that can get them atleast 20 and above goals every season,and they have identified the Sporting Man as the man who can make them competitive infront of goal.
They already have Karl Hervetz and Gabriel Jesus in that position,but those two are not getting the kind of goals Arsenal want.If they can go on to secure this deal,And also get an attacking midfielder that can be like Odegard,then I believe Arsenal will be very much dangerous comes next season.

Chelsea's spending just started because the new coach will do his own shopping too; he will sign some players he thinks will be better for his team and sell out some players he thinks cannot help his plan and the team, even though the team has yet to get the best out of the player since they signed him. This change of coach will never favor them on time; it will make the management keep losing money since all new coaches come with the mindset of being given some money to sign more players.
Chelsea will enter a new era with Enzo Maresca next season, this season Pochettino has managed to form a Chelsea team with the majority of young players and was able to improve their performance rapidly even though it was a little late at the end of the season, next season Chelsea of course has a very big ambition to be able to return to be a title contender after several seasons they have been down and of course Enzo Maresca will be responsible for being able to take Chelsea even better Later, it is reported that Chelsea is currently eyeing several new players for them to recruit next summer.

Enzo Maresca is a coach who is known to be smart and is also able to make many changes to the team he coaches as well as when he coached Leicester City, but coaching Chelsea is not an easy thing to do at this time, especially indeed Todd Boehly as the owner of the club wants to see Chelsea rise in a short time and does not hesitate to fire a coach who is unable to do so.

I don’t understand what we are arguing about (or we are not arguing haha) - the fact that Real Madrid, even without a top striker, was able to win the double is an indisputable fact, but I think that few people will argue with the fact that this is not an ideal concept, but a forced one. You can remember that in the first third of the season Real had problems such as Vinny’s injury and Real managed without him, but it is undeniable that Real is much stronger with him.
No need arguing, imagine just Madrid without a top striker and the level at which they perform now compare to addition of Mbappe who is a world class finisher, not a lazy one like Haaland but a player who can aswell manage the ball, dribble and still strike perfectly.

The best solution is to get a new deal or to be sold this year so the club can take some money, Bayern is interested.

Juventus wants to allocate their money for new transfers the most probably. But in this way it is really difficult to convince Chiesa for only a 1-year extension. I think they should sell him right away if they aren't interested in signing a long deal. They would make use of more money to spend on transfers this summer. He has been playing out of his main position, as a second striker. In case he leaves the youngster Kenan Yıldız would also start having more chances.  Smiley

Mbappè wants 100 milions from PSG for salaries and bonus.
A whooping €100 millions is big and massive. We understand PSG have completely play mute when it involves such contract with their keyman because he exited Parc des Princes stadium this season, perhaps they will fight in due cause. Kylian Mbappe would want everything possibility of receiving huge profits from his contract with Paris Saint-Germain. The Frenchman want everything the club's owed him and he's not holding back because he keep facing straight scene.
Even if you are the best player in the world, 100 million is a huge amount of money, you will not find many teams that will give you that. Maybe rich people in Arabia can pay, but after paying such money, the team's expectations from you will be very high. If you conflict with the team, you will experience such problems, you will have negative experiences such as not paying your salary.
Instead of earning a lot of money in PSG, being a star player in a team like Real Madrid and winning the Champions League may be a greater prestige. Let's see how Mbappe's performance will be
In reality PSG is able to provide all that but they do not have full rights to Mbappe to keep him because Mbappe left because his contract had expired, he is now with the right team, namely Real Madrid.
But looking at Mbappe last two season with PSG it is clear that he is not very comfortable despite having actually made very large amount of money there which is actually one of the biggest.
Moreover, Mbappe plays under lot of pressure and I sure whoever he is, even if he is great player who gets paid lot of money if he plays under pressure and doesn't feel comfortable, he won't be able to last much longer.

Now everything has really officially happened and we just need to follow Mbappe developments in the future, in the long term if he gets what he wants, such as several important titles, maybe he will spend his career with Real Madrid like several other Real Madrid legends.
At least this particular transfer saga is over, because it's was becoming really annoying too me that, everytime Kyler mbape is being mentioned in the news, it's mostly his potential move to real madrid and to me, it's a massive disrespect to psg that a single player will be just keeping the whole club on suspense, though I also blame the hierarchy of pSG because they made him feels like psg will cease to exist without him.

I am actually a staunch fan of team unity, no player is bigger than the club, just as any of their working staff, everyone is replaceable, so the desperation shown by the hierarchy of psg was a total disgrace to the club, why would they even offer him such an amount of money for him to stay? They were just trying to force him to stay when his mind was no longer at the club, and to me it's very wrong,  because if they must grow and succeed, they must have players who are willing to fight for the badge without needing any convincing, but the good news now is that, every one will put this saga behind him or her and forge ahead.

The fact that Real didn’t sign the striker then was not a conscious move, but a forced decision because everyone was sure that Mbappe would move to Real even then and because of this Real gave up the fight for Haaland. But in the end Real ended up with neither. Without a striker, no team will be as effective as possible as the opposing midfield and defense will be able to rise very high and have an advantage in the center of the field. Simply having Mbappe at the forefront of attack will help Real's midfield and they will be even more effective.
Let's put Mbappe aside first and see that Madrid struggled for a season without Benzema but was able to perform extraordinary in La Liga and UCL. So basically this is not a coercion, Madrid was deliberately made to keep fighting without dependence on strikers, Ancelotti managed to implement this system for a full season. Regardless of Barcelona's condition, the fact is that the quality of Madrid's players cannot be underestimated. We are talking about evidence, not just wishful thinking, Real Madrid has proven that they can do it without a striker like Benzema. Against Man City, Bayern Munich and Dortmund in the final. What makes most people not accept Real Madrid success is because the club they support is in decline, venting their frustration here and there as if the conditions they are experiencing are unfair even though it is the fault of the club itself.

I don’t understand what we are arguing about (or we are not arguing haha) - the fact that Real Madrid, even without a top striker, was able to win the double is an indisputable fact, but I think that few people will argue with the fact that this is not an ideal concept, but a forced one.

It seems like Ancelotti is quite capable of managing Madrid dressing room in harmony, so Perez doesn't have to step in to make a statement that no player is bigger than the club. Mbappe definitely understands the situation well, he has to suppress his ego if he wants to be treated well by other players.

Meanwhile, Ancelotti has proven to be adept at rotating his players, where each Madrid player will get a role according to their abilities. With the many competitions that Los Blancos will participate in next season, I think all players will get a fair opportunity to show their abilities.

On the other hand, Mbappe certainly needs to adapt to the new squad, and I don't think he will need long.  If the process goes according to expectations, it would not be surprising if next season Mbappe will become La Liga top scorer. With the addition of Mbappe, Madrid should be able to defend the Champions League and La Liga trophies next season.
Florentino Perez made the statement that no player is bigger than the club when Real Madrid missed out in signing Kylian Mbappé two years ago. He also made the statement when Ronaldo left the club that Real Madrid is not missing the Portuguese superstar. For me, I think he needs to restate this fact because Mbappe has some behavioral flaws. He is a player who wants all the money and attention. Mbappe wants to be the highest goal scorer and this makes him to be selfless.

I agree that coach Carlo Ancelotti is experienced and can control any player. His age and accomplishments are enough for him to command respect in the dressing room. Real Madrid didn't pay much for the Frenchman so they will be willing to take disciplinary actions against Mbappe anytime he misbehaves. Selection will indeed be a problem but Mbappe's position is uncontestable because the striker is in top form.

If Ancelotti can control the dressing room and the players play with a common goal without competition and selfishness, Real Madrid might be unstoppable next season. They have the best management, coach, and players.
