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.

Even it's possible, it would be stupid if Real Madrid sign Haaland when they already have Mbappe. If a team can automatically win any league by signing all star players, PSG already won Champions League. It's not easy to combine "2 heads" in one team, it could influence internal problem because each of them think he's the best player and his teammates need to listen to him.

Signing star player is fine as long as you sign the player that play in the same position which your team currently need it, not blindly signing star players.

Maatsen is a very qualified young man. Dortmund continues to sell good players to Europe this year, as it does every year. Borussia Dortmund is like a quality team and football factory. They will sell Maatsen for a serious price. Chelsea needs a player. Dortmund will definitely replace Maatsen with a quality player. I think Dortmund is the best in the world in terms of observer network.

Manchester United continues to hunt for other potential players and this time their choice fell on one of the West Ham players, namely Edson Alvarez. This discussion was previously conveyed by management and Erik Ten Hag really appreciated it. I think Edson Alvarez is indeed a player to be reckoned with, especially since his performance with West Ham was quite good. As a midfielder, he will really help the Red Devils' midfield, especially since there are rumors that Casemiro will leave and because of that, Manchester United is moving quickly to get him.

The problem may be that West Ham will ask for quite a high fee considering that Edson Alvarez is one of the key players and the captain of the Mexican national team will be quite difficult to get. I doubt Manchester United will spend more than 50 million euros to sign him.

Real Madrid will not make any move for Erling Haaland next season because they've made good signings in previous season and Florentino Perez have rebuild the fumbles structures of the club. Real Madrid can confidently win the UEFA Champions League without challenges because everyone know they can overcome them with ease efforts. Carlo Ancelotti on the other hand understands the chemistry going on between his players and know the comprehensive action to trigger for the progress of the club towards their preeminent rivals.

I'm of the same opinion as you do if he's talking about Real Madrid signing of Haaland this very season, despite them having the funds to do so and plus the fact that Mbappé went to Madrid on a free transfer, so no much funds was spent. Possibility of Haaland moving to Real Madrid would be if Madrid has let go some of its front-line players because, as it stands so right now, Madrid has gotten the right frontline players that are capable of destroying any opponent team that they will encounter, be it in the Champions League, The La Liga and other remaining competitions.

IMO, the more appropriate position to replace Kroos is Bellingham with very reliable talent to be able to use the number 8 jersey and that is more suitable than Valverde because for me Bellingham has skills that are perhaps a little similar to Kroos and if Bellingham can stay longer at Madrid I sure he will really be Kroos successor.
But it seems like Ancelotti has a different opinion because Bellingham could be an alternative option when Madrid is deadlocked in a match, Bellingham could be one of the midfielders who can appear like a striker with speed and intelligence on the ball to score.
So if later Valverde officially replaces Kroos, I'm sure my guess is correct.

It seems like Ancelotti won't sell too many reserve players at the moment because some of the current reserve players already have good quality, but maybe Ancelotti will look for a replacement for Joselu if he can't make it permanent at Madrid.
And for the defense line, I don't think anyone needs to be replaced because if the defense line is replaced with new players, it will definitely take more time to adapt.

I don't think Real Madrid will try to sign Haaland when they already have Mbappe on the club. Madrid is seeking for a striker, and they already have one in the club in Mbappe. Madrid's target will be on the defence line, as Madrid's defenders are becoming older, and Cavanja is getting weaker, and Ancelotti will want to have another after the next season ends. But now that Real Madrid has midfielders and attackers, they will not be short on players next season and will perform well and win the title. Ancelotti no longer requires any transfer windsors instead, they are only searching for mbappe. So Madrid will not rush to buy any player again. i think bayern munich don't want davies to leave the team they still need him in the club that is why real madrid as not get him hope thing now.

I am confident he will renew his contract with Bayern Munich next season. because is performance against real madrid in the champions league was very great and the new coach will like to use next time so munich will not let davies leave the club as a free agent and davies like madrid and I think that is why he has not renewed with bayern still, and madrid have enough money to buy any players they need because they have many titles and money to buy key players and I am sure if madrid did not get davies next season they will get him another season.

I think you are completely correct; Haaland has no reason to engage with Real Madrid. I also have to highlight that Joselu is now playing as a pure striker at Real Madrid; however, he is the club's secondary striker. Real Madrid will be facing additional challenges as a result of signing Haaland. 

Two attackers (mbappe and joselu) are enough to play in real madrid. Including more strikers simply brings anarchy for the team. 

But, I disagreed with your last idea that the competition between Mbappe and Haaland should be treated similarly to Messi and Ronaldo since, while it is not for this moment, there is nothing wrong with them playing in the same club. Finally, it is preferable for Haaland to stay at Manchester City rather than being pushed to perform at Real Madrid. 

Real Madrid to go for Haaland? After signing Mbappe you say? I don't think so honestly.    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.  

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.

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.

It would be better for Haaland to continue playing for Manchester City rather than moving to Real Madrid, he can develop better there because he has the trust of Pep Guardiola to fill the main line-up. At Real Madrid he will compete with Mbappe and it will cause disharmony in the squad if two great players continue to compete to be the best.
Haaland and Mbappe will present a very interesting competition at their respective clubs, they are players who will continue the rivalry that previously occurred between Ronaldo and Messi. If Haaland moves to La Liga, it would be more ideal for him to join Barcelona rather than Real Madrid because it will provide more exciting competition when they face each other in El Clasico.

Every era of football has icons like Ronaldo and Messi, so perhaps this is the right time for Erling Haaland and Mbappe to take over as the next generation of world football icons. It would be more exciting if both of them were on their respective teams to make history by competing.
It is true that there is nothing impossible for Erling Haaland to go to Real Madrid, but where will he be placed? share a position with Mbappe? Are you sure Mbappe wants to share playing time where he now has an important role in the main squad?
I agree it's not about money but about effectiveness on the pitch and how Florentino maintains balance between the strikers. I don't know why many people want Haaland to go to Madrid, even though Man City still uses him as their main striker. Erling Haaland gave up the main position at Man City just to come to Madrid as a 2nd striker.

In this day and age we see many players retiring later and later.

Some players are actually around 40 years old and still are happy to continue.

I don't think 34 is too old to continue playing to be honest. It all depends on how well they can keep their performance.

Joselu is 34 years old now so it's realistic that he doesn't have a bright future anymore, now he's just waiting for his retirement.
Real Madrid is Joselu's dream club so even though he is on the bench he still won't leave and for next season Ream Madrid has given him a new contract with a duration of 1 season so this will be good for both of them, Real Madrid can take advantage of Joselu's contribution when needed and Joselu could be in one of the best teams in the world, so this would be the right decision.

This will never happen because basically Haaland is also core Manchester City player and he has release clause with very large amount of money, it is impossible for Real Madrid to fulfill all that amount for Haaland, plus they already have Mbappe.
This is not about the position of the same player but more about the impact that will occur, we know that each of these players has quite tough attitude and if they are in the same team there may be several problems that could occur.
Apart from that, bringing in Haaland would also be in vain because Real Madrid currently has all the great players in every position, even Real Madrid reserve players are also very reliable players, they will only waste money if they try to bring in Haaland.

Moreover, Haaland arrival was just rumor that circulated some time ago as second option when Real Madrid failed to get Mbappe from PSG.
But now that everything is clear and Real Madrid have got Mbappe, there will be no other options that will actually materialize, including the arrival of Haaland, after all, if there is player they want then Ancelotti will definitely issue an official statement regarding his wishes.

I would say that he could leave for a club that he could play for instead. I mean sure there are some other clubs that he may get benched, or he could go to a team that is not good at all and he could play there, but then he will suck and play badly and be benched eventually.

But at the very least, if he leaves, he has a chance to play somewhere, can you see him playing at Real Madrid? I mean even as a bench player, I can see maybe like maximum 500 minutes total for all season. He didn't get to play a ton of games even without Mbappe, now Mbappe joins and he will not have any chance at all, I think he will be quite bad, I think that is the part that matters the most, which is why I think it needs to be something quite big.

Many teams want to add Olise to their squad. He has recently risen as an influential player in the English league. Olise is a quality player and Chelsea will not get him for free. Also, I couldn't understand why they paid 100 M Euros to Mudyrk since the first time they bought it. Mudyrk could not perform at a high level and Chelsea's money was wasted and nothing else happened. If they aim for the upper levels in the Premier League, they should add a name like Olise to the squad.

Though at it stands now, it's very much unlikely for Chelsea to sell mudryk now because of the huge investment they made on him, and he hasn't even perform at all since he came too the club, he has practically been a disappointment in almost all the games he has features, though I don't expect Chelsea to cut their lose now, but if they do that now, it would definitely be the best decision, because the presence of mudryk in the team will do them more harm than good, considering the high wages he earned and him not doing anything, so it will be very much logical for them to cut their loss now that he can still attract something tangible.

Lastly, the major cause of the problem Chelsea are going through right now is the new owners Todd boehly and co.  they have practically turns Chelsea into a laughing stock, they are the major cause of this mudryk mess the club is in right now, because he wasn't a target for the club in the first place, but Todd boehly just came from no where and signed him without even thinking if he will suit this current Chelsea or if he has what it takes to play for a club like Chelsea, so to me, Todd boehly is the worst thing that has ever happened to Chelsea.

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.
