Well, this will only create competition within the club itself if Haaland and Mbappe are put together in one team. And it wouldn't be good at all to have two goal-scoring machines on the same team. because both have characteristics that will not be compatible if put together. And I don't think it will happen that Haaland goes to Real Madrid. Because Haaland is only suitable for Manchester City.  Grin
But the funny thing is that speculation about Haaland's interest in Real Madrid has been widely reported since the beginning of this year. but maybe that's just speculation and in reality nothing like that will happen. Because Haaland already has a good place at Manchester City and now Mbappe also has a good place at Real Madrid. I can't wait to see these two face off in the UCL next season.
Now Real Madrid already has Mbappe, so as a squad Real Madrid doesn't need any more players, I mean Mbappe alone is enough for them. I heard this rumor before Real Madrid officially got Mbappe and in my opinion it was just a rumor that couldn't be justified, because Manchester City themselves certainly wouldn't want to let go of their valuable player on the front line, his game was very integrated with the team, so there wasn't any reason for Manchester City to sell him.

He is a future asset that Manchester City have, so they will not let such a valuable young player leave the squad. It would be a loss for them if they let Haaland go. If we talk about their financial situation, their finances are also fine and that will not force them to sell their valuable players to get a profit. So in my opinion this rumor is just being exaggerated by some media.

I want to laugh reading it, because Haaland is not really noticed in my opinion, Ancelotti might not think of including him in the squad, although it is possible, and making Haaland in the center of their striker position while Mbappe is next to him to run and pass, but is it possible for them to be humble, I think there will be ego centricity that will be generated when they are together on the other hand also both hunt to be the best player.

Really this is just ridiculousness, the youth is so good and I prefer Mbappe to Haaland, however as you said Mbappe could be more perfect for Real Madrid's style of play, If you also note that Haaland was not so productive at the end of last season.

I feel like Kylian Mbappe would be on the left wing, Endrick as the center forward and Vinicius Junior on the right wing.

You are saying Endrick will be in the starting eleven quickly? Honestly I don't feel like that man.  Sad  Ancelotti prefers to keep this kind of young talents on the bench for a while and asks from them to be patient for their time. The same thing happened to Vinicius Junior also and it is happening to the new young talent Arda Güler as well.

This is why I'm expecting Mbappe to be at the centre, Vinicius Junior on the left wing. For the right wing, Rodrygo/Valverde can be preferred. However this is valid if Ancelotti prefers 4-3-3 formation.

If we see a formation with 2 strikers, Vinicius Junior - Mbappe duo might be seen and Bellingham right behind them.  Smiley  These are just predictions of mine though so let's see...

2 Ancelotti at the same table  Cheesy

Seems to be the right decision. By staying with Real Madrid Davide Ancelotti will be able to learn more. And this is the time for him to learn. Carlo Ancelotti is a great coach and he has achieved so much in his managerial career as well. His son should stay by him and try to learn as many things as he can. His father has a huge knowledge of football. Even though sometimes it feels like he makes some weird decisions, those decisions are very calculated and often pay off. Assuming that he is going to be as good as his father is probably not the right thing to do right now. But I can say he is doing the right thing which is learning from his father. Is going to get from his father, is probably something he’s not going to get from anywhere else.
Davide Ancelotti still too young become head coach and he want stay more longer time with Real Madrid and become his father Carlo Ancelotti assistant manager.
Interested with relationship between father and son since become Everton manager, Carlo Ancelotti always give his son position as assistant manager before joining Real Madrid.
Davide Ancelotti have been assistant manager since season 2016 when his father become Bayern Munich head coach, its had been 7 years with his position as assistant manager but Davide Ancelotti keep want to stay more longer behind his father although any teams interested for signing him and give higher position as head coach.

Aston Villa is one team who is taking the premier league serious and we all saw that last season. And we the way they performed they now have the believe that they can too compete for the title this new season. Meanwhile they have agreed a deal with Chelsea ahead of Borussia Dortmund for the Chelsea left - back Maatsen with the price of 35 millions Euros to 40 million Euros. However add - on has not been included it which means the price will be higher and much better for Chelsea. On the hand they are looking to buy more players to strengthen the team.
Since the last three seasons, Aston Villa has started a great project of becoming a world class team who will compete in the Champions League and as well win the Premier League titles.

They signed Emery last two seasons and the team became better and with the effort Uni Emery is putting, I am very sure they can surely compete for the Premier League title next season which is why they are signing more players to strengthen their squad.
Aston villa have started their journey very well this season and even they were able to surprise us all with their incredible performance, since the beginning of the season Aston Villa have shown impressive play and even they were able to be on the path of champions before finally inconsistency befell them and made Aston Villa have to end the season in 4th place,  Aston Villa of course since the arrival of Unai Emery they began to target to be able to win the Premier League and end the season in the Champions League zone, their target has increased along with the performance they are currently showing, next season will certainly be a considerable challenge for Unai Emery especially now that he has extended his contract with Aston Villa.

Aston Villa has reportedly released several star players due to their unstable finances, but I think as a team that can continue to create star players every season, of course this will not make Aston Villa performance decline next season, especially as we know that so far Unai Emery is a coach who is quite experienced in bringing the Mediocer team to win in the Europa League,so I am quite sure that Unai Emery will also be able to present a trophy to Aston Villa later.

One of the best decisions of Aston Villa as an English club was to sign Unai Emery to become the manager of the club after they sacked former England international Stephen Gerrard who left the club struggling in the 16th position before his he was sacked. Since the arrival of the Spanish manager at Aston Villa in October 2022, the club have significantly improved in their form. In the first full season of Unai Emery at Aston Villa, he helped them to finish k the top four of the English Premier League table and will now lead the team to play in the UEFA Champions League competition come next season. A lot of people are doubtful of Aston Villa will have a good performance in the UEFA Champions League because of the quality of players in the team but for me, I strongly believe they stand a good chance of having a great outing in Europe's biggest and most prestigious competition however, I don't see them winning the UEFA Champions League next season.

I'd support Chelsea releasing him if Mudryk's price was ten times less than when they purchased him, because of that, chelsea would lose pennies on their investment in him, but the problem is that 100 million was paid by chelsea for mudryk from shaktar, and the blues will suffer a huge loss on mudryk because his price may have dropped significantly, if chelsea decides to sell him. Apparently, there's no club that is keen to acquire him from chelsea either. 

Regarding Olise, the Blues have been in talks with Palace. Chelsea's plan to include Medueke and Chalobach in the Olise move may now be reconsidered by Palace. The talks between Chelsea and Palace are still underway, and no final agreement has been reached by these clubs. To recap, Olise's price is rather high, but he may be worth it, and a final agreement is all that is required to complete the transfer of Olise to the Blues. 
Chelsea should consider cutting their losses and selling Mudryk even if it means selling him at significantly lower price than what they paid for him. Holding onto him won't change fact that his value has decreased and it is better to minimize their losses.However issue is that Chelsea paid hefty sum of 100 million for him and selling him at lower price would result in substantial loss. Unfortunately there does not look to be any club interested in acquiring him either. On separate note Chelsea negotiations with Palace for Olise are ongoing and while his price is steep he may be worth it. Including players like Medueke and Chalobach in deal could be smart move but ultimately it is up to Palace to decide. Let's see if the two clubs can reach a final agreement and complete the transfer.

It definitely hurts to sell a player for significantly less money than what you have paid for them. But at this point, they have nothing to do. Because the more they keep him, the more they increase the chance of him being less valuable. I actually like the idea of making a swap deal. Chelsea will have to do anything to get a good price. They might get another player and some money for Mudryk. They might get just the money. I think they have to try every option and choose the one that is going to pay them the most amount of money. But whatever they choose, it is not going to be as good as the money that they have paid for him.

Aston villa is a big team alright but saying that they are now big enough to actually compete for the title is something wild if you ask me although if teams like Bayern Leverkusen can do an unbeaten run in the German bundesLiga last season, the possibility of Aston villa actually winning can't be ruled out and moreover they all have legs used in playing the football and in football now no team needs to be underestimated.
After being acquired by Nassef Sawiris Aston Villa has emerged as one of the clubs that is able to compete with other top teams and this happened not without reason because the club owner is willing to spend a lot of money to build. But for the matter of competing for the title Aston Villa is still far from expectations because when compared to last season they found it very difficult to penetrate the strength of Man City, Arsenal and Liverpool.

If they are willing to buy some great players and a more experienced coach then there is a big chance Aston Villa will be able to compete. Comparing the Bundesliga with the Premier League is very different although in the previous few seasons we were quite surprised to see Leicester City win the Premier League title with minimal strength.

Real Madrid to go for Haaland? After signing Mbappe you say? I don't think so honestly.  Sad  Because they don't need a player like Haaland anymore after this signing. Mbappe will most probably play in the centre-forward position which means they won't need another star striker. They don't have the same play style of course but Real Madrid would prefer Mbappe to Haaland for sure considering the way they play.  Smiley

Besides Real Madrid is full of star players. Let's say they signed Haaland as well. Then how will Ancelotti deal with this? There are many great alternatives for the attacking line. He can't just cut any of them easily.
Bro, absolutely. Real Madrid just got Mbappe; it's completely ridiculous that they are pursuing Haaland. On his own, Mbappe is a monster, guy. Haaland would be like far too much firepower to be included. I think that's excessive. While both of them are fantastic strikers, Mbappe simply has a more natural fit with Real Madrid's style. He is far more adaptable and has that incredible speed than Haaland. Plus, Real Madrid's got bigger problems to solve than stacking their attack. Let's be real, their offense is already fire

I want to laugh reading it, because Haaland is not really noticed in my opinion, Ancelotti might not think of including him in the squad, although it is possible, and making Haaland in the center of their striker position while Mbappe is next to him to run and pass, but is it possible for them to be humble, I think there will be ego centricity that will be generated when they are together on the other hand also both hunt to be the best player.

Aston villa really do have those potentials but I feel like they still have a longer way to go competing for the title, mean a drag between the first and second position on the table. During the 2023/2024 season they finished 4th position on the  table surpassing a bigger team like Tottenham but couldn't beat Liverpool on the long. run which was actually 12 points ahead of them. The gap between this both teams are huge, even if Aston villa are going increase their potential this season, same improvements are going on within every team so they still lye on a lesser opportunity to compete immensely for the title.

Let's forget about his age, Joselu is a good player but you guys forget something about how Ancelotti has been rotating his players. Since before now when Madrid hasn't gotten Mbappe let's say since the beginning of last campaign, has the coach been showing any sign of giving this guy Joselu a better opportunity? He always sit on the bench or sometimes he plays Joselu around 80-85mins just for him to kill the time, sometimes Ancelotti doesn't even play the guy so what's the assurance that he'll have a playing time (base on swapping the playing) now that they have Mbappe? To me Joselu is just there and there's no special reason for him to be there, if Ancelotti wants to do any sub he can even bring in a defender or a midfielder instead of Joselu.

Ancelotti did not give him a chance to start even after his goals in the semi-final against Bayern, so it can be said that Ancelotti is not changing his working strategy and there will always be a place for Joselu on the bench. Moreover, with the arrival of Mbappe, this situation will worsen, I doubt that Mbappe or Rodrigo will be on the bench. But apparently Joselu is happy with this, he goes on the field for twenty minutes, scores several goals, but he plays in Real Madrid, everyone makes their own choice.
A player who performed very well in a match and that player scored a goal in an important match to win the team is definitely not the manager Ancelotti to select him for the next match considering this one match. Ancelotti does a lot of planning before going into a match and the players who are right with his plan for that match get to play in the eleven for the next match. Since Real Madrid's starting eleven players are doing well regularly, Ancelotti will not want to spoil the good balance of the team by leaving out any player from the starting eleven and giving another player a chance. Even if Joselu is at Real Madrid next season, he will definitely not get a chance in Real Madrid's regular XI.

I also quite agree with what you said because a team as big as Real Madrid basically already has some of the best players so it would look quite good to be able to get Mbappe to fill their squad next season. So Real Madrid can have the option of saving money by not sacrificing the team's performance next season because I am also quite sure that Real Madrid will be much better than the previous season in terms of competition and their performance unless there are many mistakes that can prevent them from performing well next season.
If Haaland and Mbappe join forces and play together in Madrid then it can be certain that Madrid has a very perfect attacking line and it will be scary for their opponents, this season Madrid has a very dangerous attack when they only rely on Vinicius, Rodrygo and also Bellingham, so that currently they are able to make Madrid win the La Liga trophy and also the Champions League,So we can imagine how dangerous Madrid's attack will be when next season Mbappe will also join and of course we will see how easily Madrid attacking attackers destroy the defense of each of their rivals in a match.

Speculation about Haalaand joining Madrid is of course only an uncertain issue, but I think it is possible to happen if indeed Perez ambition to build Los Galatics to become the greatest team that exists later, the financial ability possessed by Madrid is of course undeniable if the possibility can be realized, and when it is realized, it is likely that Madrid will be able to dominate not only in La Liga But in other competitions, it is likely that they will be very easy to win.

Emery's anti-mainstream way of coaching makes Aston Villa an ordinary club without any players who become stars but their cooperation and cohesiveness are very good which makes the situation very good to see in every match and the competition they always show.

As long as Emery is able to maintain their performance with ordinary players, they will be even more surprising because Emery's way of making the right scheme and combined with good teamwork makes everything look possible for them but there are indeed some obstacles for clubs like Aston Villa because no matter how good they are, they will only be a dark horse club that will be very difficult to compete in the championship because they only allow them to be able to compete for positions in the Champions League and Europa League but not with the position of the championship considering they are difficult to do with the depth of the squad they have.

Let's leave aside signing Kylian Mbappe and the return of Endrick. Real Madrid cannot sign Erling Haaland, do you see the way Tchouameni and Tony Rudiger handles him? Cheesy  ( Same way a man handles a woman on the bed ) I will not agree to this, they know his weakness and immediately man marked, he is totally useless, you'll have to play Alvarez alongside him to uncaged and unlock him.

I feel like Kylian Mbappe would be on the left wing, Endrick as the center forward and Vinicius Junior on the right wing. Correctly Said, Real Madrid would be playiny a quick football with player who can operate until the last minute of the game. I'm.nkt saying Erling isn't pacy but we'll see.

They're both hungry to win the Ballon d'or, I be wondering who will pass for who? Would've loved to see Pep Guardiola managing Kylian Mbappe anyways.

Real Madrid has much better finances and it is possible that Haaland will be their target next season.
I don't really believe it's not about money, modern football is almost completely involved in money when it comes to player transfers and the prices are much more fantastic than expected. Real Madrid is a big club and it seems difficult for any player to refuse to join them.
Have you ever seen the Cristiano Ronaldo era where almost all the stars were there and the club's finances were still quite stable.

For me nothing is impossible and if Florentino Perez wants Haaland then I am sure he will play at Real Madrid.
It's just a matter of time and I'm pretty sure that next season Haaland will be a target for Real Madrid if his performance is still good.
Bringing in Haalaand when their attacking line is filled with great attacking strikers, it just a waste of money, indeed we do not deny that Madrid and Perez have very big ambitions in building their squad, besides that the financial strength possessed by Madrid is of course possible for them to bring in Haalaand even at an expensive cost, but that is obviously it only makes it difficult for the coach in the end to determine the main line-up they are in filling the starting XL, especially the front line, if indeed Perez wants to form a team that is indeed filled with star players, of course it is better for Perez to find star players to fill other positions that still have weaknesses.

The number of star players in the attacking line will certainly only create internal conflicts between players in my opinion, because indeed their status as star players of course asks the coach to give them more opportunities to play than other players and of course other star players will also demand the same thing.
