I heard talks about Osimhen wanting to move to Chelsea. I don't know if the team is willing to sign him or they have other plans with Openda and other players potentially?
Anyway, it is clear that Chelsea have to make some serious signing to get back to the top places in the English Premier League and to pick a place for UEFA Champions League ultimately. They used to play advanced stages previously..

The speculation about the future of Mykhailo Mudryk in Chelsea was appears since this winter because since joining Chelsea Mykhailo Mudryk was unable to performing well just like he was showed when playing at Shakhtar Donetsk and some people considers Chelsea has got scammed because the transfer fee when they bought Mykhailo Mudryk was very expensive so people have been wondering whether Mykhailo Mudryk is really worth to that price or not considering since joining Chelsea Mykhailo Mudryk didn't give any significant progress with this team

I have to says Mykhailo Mudryk was failed to adapt with Chelsea and Premier League so that's why he was unable to reach to his top performance with Chelsea but i think Chelsea shouldn't be rush to decided whether they will sell Mykhailo Mudryk or not because he still have potention to develop his skill in Chelsea and actually last season Mykhailo Mudryk performance is better but indeed he still cannot help Chelsea to reach to top 4 position on League Standing however according to the rumour if Chelsea is really want to sell him then probably Arsenal can save his career

Loïs Openda is one of the most productive strikers in Bundesliga in season 2023-2024. It is a good idea to sign him because Chelsea needs an experienced striker with great ability. However, I doubt if RB Leipzig wants to sell him because he is the machine goal of RB Leipzig. If Chelsea doesn't make offer with big transfer fees, I'm sure Loïs Openda will stay in RB Leipzig. His market value is around €60m, I think RB Leipzig only wants to sell him at least €80m. He is still young and has a long time contract with RB Leipzig (June 30, 2028). RB Leipzig won't hurry to sell him, he is very valuable for RB Leipzig.

I think Chelsea will keep Mudryk because Chelsea has no many options for the wingers. Mudryk performed not so bad, he deserves to stay in Chelsea. Since  he is still crucial for Chelsea, I believe Mudryk will continue his career in Chelsea.

I don't see a chance that Man United can sign Josep Martinez. Josep Martinez must prefer to choose Inter Milan because he is familiar with Serie A atmosphere, he also will get a good future in Inter Milan because he will be the only young goalkeeper there. Josep Martinez will be projected to be the main goalkeeper in Inter Milan, meanwhile he will compete for the goalkeeper position with Onana if he joins Man United. Also, Josep Martinez looks easier to win trophies if he joins Inter Milan. Considering these matters, no reason for Josep Martinez to choose Man United over Inter Milan.

I think Mudrick's departure will only be worthwhile if the new player is paid a reasonable wage and bought for reasonable money, unlike Mudrick. They spent too much money on him and he clearly didn't justify it, 7 goals can't be worth 100 million. I think if he was bought 10 times cheaper he would probably fully justify his cost. Oh and also the possible transfer of Oliseh would be nice because looking at him from the outside he is playing much better

In Real Madrid’s midfield, they have a lot of backups and if you watch closely at what happened, they don’t want all of their midfields to leave the club at once. Some years back, it was Casemiro, Kroos and Modric. After Casemiro left to Manchester United, they still didn’t feel his absence and were able to cover up with a good replacement. I believe Kroos and Modric all wanted to leave the club last season but they persuaded Modric to stay back for one more season. I am sure that during his stay now, he will only be teaching the young ones that will replace them how to handle the midfield when he finally leaves. They have the backups but they have to do some smart transitions in other to continue remaining the great team they are as usual in La Liga and the champions league.

It looks like Chelsea still haven't given up on registering players who really shine at the club and this means the second time after Chelsea also completed Nkunku from Leipzig and now they will again target Nkunku's replacement last season for Leipzig although surely this will require a large enough nominal to bring Openda. It's just that for Openda it's clearly a little complicated even though there are indeed some rumors that say that Openda could have left with an offer of 70 million but I don't feel this will go smoothly for Chelsea.

On the other hand, this is clearly a problem for Mudryk and it is very natural that he leaves under these conditions. He lost momentum at Chelsea and indeed he is one of the players who is overated with his price so it is quite natural if indeed Mudryk will be allowed to leave because by looking at the price Chelsea gave and the performance he showed throughout the season when in Chelsea uniform then indeed we are certainly aware that Mudryk should not be at a big club like Chelsea because it is not too suitable for his capacity.

Real Madrid's president is a very experienced man who spends money to recruit better players, which is why the club is still functioning well and winning trophies back-to-back. That is what Barcelona lacks; they do not have the money to get crucial players, which is why they do poorly in league competition. Real Madrid's addition of Mbappe has made them a formidable opponent for any club. Madrid no longer needs any transfers; the only thing they lack is a striker, but now that they have Mbappe, they will not buy any more players, and Real Madrid will be the favorites to win the La Liga title next season. Since Barcelona did not make any changes still they will still probably perform weak but let see if the new coach will do something good to make the team stronger.

Earlier today I read in the news that Leicester City has appointed Cooper as their head coach over Graham Potter. I was surprised that Leicester has to settle for Cooper over Graham Potter. Cooper was a Man that struggled with Nottingham Forest before he was sacked in December last year. I was thinking that Leicester would be more ambitious in appointing a more reputable manager as their head coach. Cooper struggled with Nottingham Forest for two seasons in the premier league, he was always fighting relegation and was eventually sacked. If not that he was sacked and replaced by Nuno Espirinto, Cooper would have taken Nottingham Forest to relegation. Leicester City should have have appointed Graham in my own opinion, Graham did a good job at Brighton before he left for Chelsea. At Chelsea he didn't have enough time to settle things and make it work before he was sacked by the new owners. But I feel that Graham Potter is a more advanced coach than Cooper, I just hope this Man will not take Leicester back to the relegation when the season finally starts.

Everybody knows Mbappe is a superstar. But he's just one piece of the puzzle. Ancelotti has to figure out how to make the greatest players in the world communicate. Thats the challenge, and thats what makes it fun. You have Vini, Rodrygo, Bellingham, Joselu - all hungry for goal. And who's gonna fill Kroos' shoes? Thats a big question. But thats what makes a great team, right? Everyone's gotta step up.

Ancelotti is no fool now, that much is clear. He's gonna find the right formation. He will change, adjust. Possibly there is more possession or counterattacking. Who knows?

Chelsea is interested in Belgium striker Lois Openda.
Mykhailo Mudryk could leave Chelsea.
Manchester United is doing a talk for goalkeeper Josep Martinez, even if Inter Milan already agreed personal terms with the player.
Juventus and Douglas Luis could be official during this week

Highly overrated player, he didn't give any big contribution to Lille and he's not even able to reach senior France's team, while Mbappe when he was still 18 years old already included in senior team.

Lille ask for $64 Million [1] some of the teams can't fulfill it, however Liverpool show if they willing to pay such amount to sign Yoro [2] it high likely Yoro will join Liverpool. Although I don't see any reason why they need to pay so huge just for this unknown player.

Neymar received an offer he couldn't refuse. Naturally, even though he was not old enough, he chose money and went to Saudi Arabia. It's a matter of preference. If Kroos wanted, he could have played in the SPL for 2 years and earned 200 million Euros, but he chose to retire at Real Madrid at the age of 34. Choices determine career. Neymar also charted such a path for himself.

Bringing Joselu as a loan player from Espanyol actually Madrid hopes that he can fill the position of central striker who has indeed been abandoned by Benzema last season, but in fact this season it is very rare for Ancelotti to use a strategy that does apply main striker sas their spearhead so that indeed Joselu has not been able to optimize his game so far, Ancelotti current focus is of course building a team with a talented young squad but it seems that Ancelotti does Having other plans in recruiting Joselu this season, previously Joselu was a loan player but reportedly Madrid will soon make him permanent as one of the Los Galatikos squad.

To be honest, we don't know what Ancelotti has in mind at the moment who really wants to make Joselu permanent as their player, even though currently Madrid attacking line has been filled with many players in the attacking position, so it is indeed possible that players like Arda Guler and Joselu do not have the opportunity to play next seasons, currently Kroos has left Madrid and the Madrid midfield of course must get Ancelotti attention at this time.  

It depends on who's coming in as manager, when you compare his goal conversation rate with that of these names mentioned above, you'll see the importance of the chase for Serhou Guirassy.
He made the chase for the Bundesliga highest goalscorer award competitive with Harry Kane and it's good to see that Borrussia Dortmund is chasing after him.
Sebastian Haller hasn't played well before leaving for African Cup of Nations Competitions and also after returning, they need to add him up to the squad immediately. Not even Füllkrugg and Malen has enough goals to compare.

Too much has been said about Joselu and I do think you're right. He won't be with them for next season. Asides Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo and Endrick, they also have  Àrda Guler and Brahim Diaz fighting for game time. Joselu wouldn't be retained.

If you think about it, it is quite confusing because there are some things that are question marks, when looking at Joselu who had a pretty good role last season and he did become a savior at a certain moment of Real Madrid, then indeed Mbappe is also not an arbitrary player he is a star player and very fast, Ancelotti knows what you think and where he will make a strategy for the Real Madrid squad this season by bringing Mbappe to his sequad surely he will make the most of it.

We don't know how exactly Ancelotti will make his dish, and indeed Kroos will be absent, and who will take his place!

The process of Leny Yoro's transfer to Real Madrid has yet to come to a conclusion and it seems that Real Madrid will continue to struggle hard to obtain the services of this young player from France. As is known, this rumor has been circulating for several months but an agreement has not yet been reached between Real Madrid and Lille.

Now Leny Yoro's transfer has entered a new phase where Liverpool are also competing to sign this 18 year old player's contract and it seems it's just a matter of how Leny Yoro decides his future. Two big teams both need him and on the one hand, if he wants to fight in the EPL then he will get more experience. Another option is if he joins Real Madrid, of course he will also have to be patient to get playing minutes, but on the other hand, it will also be easy for him to get the title he dreams of.

Of course, Toni Kroos was a very talented player and his experiences are also very important. Now I see that Ancelotti will definitely appoint a player to replace him. Kroos had quality and top quality in the playmaker role. It is said that Ancelotti is considering placing Arda there, but we will see this better in the new season.

Real Madrid will become a very fierce club because the president always make sure he has the best signing of the season. Previous transfer window, he sign Jude Bellingham but now, he's settled for Kylian Mbappe who's an outstanding player for his former club and will do better in Real Madrid. Los Blancos have already passed the highlights of winning more major titles in coming season. Real Madrid have experienced and young players and they've play collectively to accomplish their targets. Real Madrid headcoach, Carlo Ancelotti knows the most selectable decision that will be comfortable for his club and we know it's really his priority to ensure he's taking home major titles.

Toni Kroos will leave the team. He will retire and whoever replaces him will try to pull the team together. Ancelotti may be considering a few options for this. In my opinion, Kroos was more important to Ancelotti than Vinicius because he could manage the team like a maestro and create critical effects with his passes that could turn even the worst matches. The important thing for Real Madrid now will be who they will fill this void with.

Ancelotti seem like a person who is not bothered about the number of stars available but with the current squad depth i think he will be quite bothered, there are lots of players already and with more joining up with the squad soon and we don’t know yet how many players will be added during the summer transfer window with only few players leaving so managing them could be a problem. Selection would have to be based on performance that means every player would have to fight for their spot.

It’s not as easy as it may seem especially when all the players are performing well, Having many players is good in case of injuries but selecting a starting lineup may be difficult. All the players joining Madrid so far are talented players that cannot be benched else it would look as if the talent are being wasted. Player like Arda Guller and Endric are great talents that needs players time to develop into stars but i trust Ancelotti to manage them all properly.
