I think Ancelotti cannot leave Real Madrid. He contributed a lot to Real Madrid. He won many titles and now I am sure that he will have a long future in Madrid. If Xabi waits for him to leave the team, he will not be able to manage the team at Real Madrid for many years. This year's situation will show whether his success in Leverkusen is a coincidence. If they finish the year as champions this year too, then things may change, of course.

It can never be true, never! A Manchester United fan who didn't back Erik Ten Hag knows nothing about football, infact,  I shouldn't even be having this discussion with you. How can you say in the last two years, did you even watch the first season of Erik Ten Hag? This is a bloody joke.

You don't know ball! At all, not even in the slightest way. Did you see how Erik Ten Hag tactically out playe Xavi Hernandez last season? Mauricio Pochetino? Who's this guyy, goodness sake. You want to bring in a coach who has no good record of having won a trophy in all of his career coaching and you want him for Manchester United?

You don't know ball, lmfao. Most of you here just follow commoners you read online. You don't posses the characteristics of a Manchester United fan. Lol!

When a club achieves great success from the previous season, it will definitely retain the coach to continue to develop the performance of the club which will become one of the big clubs and this is what Leverkusen is experiencing, retaining Alonso to continue to make big changes and improve the club's performance in various ways and one of them is bringing in talented young players.
For no other reason than it was a good cause when Alonso tried to bring in Jeanuël Belocian to give greater strength to the youngster's contribution.

In terms of experience, Alonso is not yet worthy to be Real Madrid's companion, but in terms of readiness, Alonso is very ready to take on new challenges, whereas in the past Alonso was Ancelotti's protégé when he was with Real Madrid.
From that experience, when Ancelotti decides to take a break from Real Madrid's coaching chair, perhaps Alonso is very worthy of being Ancelotti's replacement.

Let's check their statistics.

Zirkzee, an one season wonder player and didn't get selected for Netherlands's national team tl;dr bad player.

Evan Ferguson, was a potential player who perform good in Brighton Youth team, but flop in Senior career for 3 years, tl;dr bad player.

Viktor Gyokeres, played very well for Coventry City and Sporting Lisbon tl;dr good player.

Arsenal should sign Gyokeres and avoid to sign the other two players.

Xabi Alonso needs to bring in several more players who have quality and have a winning mentality, increasing squad strength needs to be prioritized considering that they will play in the Champions League next season. Investing in young players is a good strategy for the stability of the team's performance in the future, but bringing in top players is also necessary to improve the performance of the team under their care.

Xabi Alonso's genius in managing a team has been proven by his unbeaten record in the Bundesliga, he is also able to improve the quality of young players who were previously not very well known to become players who are interested in other clubs. Now that Leverkusen is in good hands, he still has an unfinished mission with Leverkusen. Coaching Real Madrid is certainly an honor for him, he has the opportunity to win prestigious trophies with Real Madrid and will record a new milestone in his coaching career.

Arsenal were unlucky this time with their failure to recruit Benjamin Sesko, but at least they still have many options to choose a striker for next season. From the names you mentioned, I think all of them have the capacity to be able to do their job according to their position. But I doubt which is the right choice for Arsenal.

If I'm not mistaken, Victor Gyokeres was rumored to be with Arsenal from the start, but Sporting Lisbon seems to want him to stay and this depends on how Arsenal can make a decent offer for him. On the other hand, Evan Ferguson did perform very well with Brighton but it only lasted one season and his inconsistency would only make Arsenal feel at a loss. For Zirkzee, perhaps he has been a shining figure this season with Bologna and I think it is quite worthy to consider him as Arsenal's new striker. However, I doubt whether Bologna will want to let go of one of its key players and of course Bologna will ask for a fee that is not cheap.

Emerson Royal is a failed Brazilian's player, but since he has an experience in Europa and Milan don't have big budget, Milan become interested with him. Don't forget that Serie A is a place for European's grandpa or European's failed players, except Inter who have enough funds to buy star players.

Tottenham shouldn't too greedy to force Milan to fulfill 20 Million Euros since Tottenham also don't want Emerson Royal too, he's rarely playing and at the same time Tottenham need to pay his salary.

Judging from Hansi Flick principles in coaching a club, it is not surprising that Barcelona will be completely overhauled in terms of players and playing style. Flick has planned several options to sell in the summer transfer market. If Laporta does provide full support for Flick to improve the club, of course this will be a time consuming task in the midst of facing the UCL next season and La Liga. Lewandowski's fate will be determined soon, at his current age Flick might want to have a squad that is much younger and still has an excellent fitness level. Seeing Flick way of implementing strict training discipline, Barcelona young players must be ready for change.

AC Milan is really lack of right back currently especially after Davide Calabria want to leave this summer so for right back Milan cannot always be rely on Alessandro Florenzi for that position especially Alessandro Florenzi is not young anymore because he is currently 33 years old and indeed Milan still have Filippo Terracciano but he is a young player and lack of experience so after seeing these condition Milan feel they should be look for new player on that position immediatelly and Emerson Royal name was appears recently and i thought this transfer will not be happend because previously between Milan and tottenham there is still no agreement on the price issue because at that time Tottenham want 20 million but Milan only dare to pay 18 million but apparently now Milan are willing to pay in accordance with the asking price set by Tottenham Hotspur so this transfer will be happened soon and if everything is run well then in the next few days Milan will be announce Emerson Royal as their first signing this summer

It is very natural that currently Leverkusen management is giving Alonso everything he wants because he succeeded in bringing Leverkusen to the highest throne of the Bundesliga, and investing in young players is a must for the majority of teams who want to compete in local European leagues and international leagues

but Alonso not yet worthy to coach Madrid imo, there are still many lessons and experiences that he has to go through so he is worthy to coach Madrid because Madrid is not an arbitrary team and not all coaches are worthy of coaching Madrid

Just imagine Xabi Alonso with the Leverkusen squad this season is already very good, especially if from a financial perspective it is fully supported, then Xabi will be even more able to maximize the players he wants to buy. Because Xabi is a genius coach, he prefers young players whose potential he can develop. In terms of player selection, there is no doubt that Xabi has longterm goals for Leverkusen's future while investing in young players. After next season, Xabi is likely to leave Leverkusen to replace Ancelotti at Real Madrid. With the remaining time he has, Xabi wants to create his legacy first with Leverkusen.

There is no doubt now things are looking for the change into Barcelona because they are having new coach with they also needed few new players and their financial situation is not allowing them to have these changes but if they are able to sell their few players which are having good price tag then surely they can take good opportunity for this Ferran Torres is 24 years old and skilled forward and winger which can give good performance at the Newcastle United hopefully both parties will be able to have things on track during this transfer window and will be having good for the all stakeholders.

As we are having few updates, most chances we will have few players from Barcelona will be on verge of their careers are going to take another change because now it's time for they all to think about this worst ever financial situation and try to bring better things.

Manchester United must have been smart here because if they were to sack their current manager, who would take charge of their club was a big question for them. Bayern Munich, after letting go of an experienced manager, are realizing they shouldn't have let go in the first place. Ten Hag is quite experienced and has been working at Manchester United for a long time. He has improved Manchester United considerably, although he has not been able to make significant changes to Manchester United. As he has been given another chance next season, he will definitely try to make the most of this opportunity and do his best to save his job as well as his team's good performance. If Manchester United makes some plans and appoints some quality players in some positions, then this team's performance will definitely be good.

Liverpool have rejected an offer from Al Nassr to sign Alisson, reportedly Al Nassr is ready to pay a lot to get Alisson from Liverpool but Arne Slot has confirmed that if Alisson will remain part of Liverpool next season, Arne Slot seems to understand that for now getting a good and experienced goalkeeper of course it will be very difficult to keep up with the current many great goalkeepers who already have a club and it will be very difficult to be released by their clubs,  So indeed retaining Alisson is a wise step taken by Liverpool even though now Alisson age is no longer young, even though he is 31 years old, but Alisson has so far still performed quite well and can be relied on in guarding Liverpool goal.

Salah contract is of course coming to an end, so at the moment there is a lot of speculation about his future at Liverpool, his contract has one year left and so far Liverpool and Salah do not seem to have any possibility of agreeing a new contract again, especially after this season Klopp resigned from the position of coach of course Salah will probably think about adventuring in the league and a new club.  although we can't be sure that Salah will leave but I think it's better for Liverpool to sell Salah now than for him to leave for free at the end of the season and get the money to be able to regenerate their front line with talented young players next season.

We are continuously moving forward, but the only thing I know is that there have been no excellent coach in the history of manchester united, that has ever achieved what Fergie did at Manchester United. Ten hag isn't very good. Look at how poor Ten Hag was at scouting new players; he was always unable to find the appropriate guy to join Manchester United.
It is unlike Fergie, who was able to scout many brilliant talents. I recall when Manchester United attained its best performance in Europe under Ferguson after they were scouting ronaldo, berbatov, rooney or even chicarito. Although if the situation a few decades ago was very different from now, Fergie was able to scout some of the top players who can still play today, such as Ronaldo.

Ronaldo has also been referred to as a GOAT. It makes me wonder if Fergie was more talented at coaching a club than Ten Hag. Ten Hag's success in the transfer market has brought notable flops to the club, like Onana and Mason Mount.
I forgot about Antony as well.

Allison has no interest at all in going to Saudi maybe he can stay one more season, but with a big enough offer he still wants to be in Europe because we know Allison will definitely be needed for Liverpool and Arne Slot will not change his position in my opinion so.

Until now Salah has no news whatsoever whether he will stay for another season? I think so Liverpool will keep Salah because he is good enough for Liverpool, the offer from Saudi is always tempting, any player who sees money will be complacent.

He can not still improve the teams performance unless he will be giving full control of the transfer window so he can sell all the players that are not ready to play for Manchester United. They have a lot of players that are only seeing playing privileges that they should not be enjoying. They have not being good for the past few seasons yet they are still be paid enormous salary and still a part of the team which makes it difficult for the manager to request for new players when they still have the old players that are getting paid. Erik Ten Hag needs to be more strict if he wants to keep his job after next season because he can not be friendly with this set of players when they are not playing for the manager but playing anyhow they like because they still get paycheck.

Alisson is only 31, he’s at his peak so whilst he could leave Liverpool it would never be to Saudi. Peak world class players don’t go to Saudi, it’s usually players who are on the way down in their careers.

I could see Salah being sold if the offer was high enough. From Salah’s position though, he could play the final year of his contract at Liverpool and then take a big signing on fee plus huge wage in Saudi next summer.

Man UTD have given ten Hag another chance at coaching the team for two more seasons and one of the three conditions he gave the United board before penning down his signature is that Jadon Sancho apologize to him. Season hasn't even begun and hes still bringing up old beef that he had with the England player. If I may ask, is that something a coach should request for? Will the apology enable them do better next season, will they be able to go to their former glory?
 This attitude of ten Hag just shows he's more interested in the apology, not because he wants to teach others a lesson, but so his pride and ego can be appeased.
 

Building a team is not an easy thing, it all takes a process and time and I think even though Ten Hag can't be better, giving him 1 more season to continue the process is a wise decision for Manchester United management rather than following Chelsea's steps which are constantly changing. coach, it really will never be successful, and that has been proven even though Chelsea have changed coaches, but they have never achieved their best performance.

All possibilities are still possible for Ten Hag and I think from what he has shown and also with all the problems he had last season he is very worthy of being kept.
