If both Arsenal and Chelsea can afford what Leipzig's ask, it's better for Sesko to join Chelsea than Arsenal because Arsenal has a curse that makes them can't win prestigious trophy lol. Chelsea might not be very strong right now, but they can improve and compete against other top teams. Sesko can get a spotlight too if he's successful, but if he joined Arsenal, many people set the standard too high and it might affect his performance.

Is Laporta's thinking too sensitive so that with a little criticism from Xavi that makes him furious and then fired, I know Barcelona did not finish as LaLiga champions but Xavi still did a pretty good job, it's just a financial matter that was the reason.

The news is that Xavi also gave up the salary that was not taken from Barcelona.

If Hansi Flick wants a player but Laporta doesn't give him then this will be the same situation as Xavi, but for me Laporta wants to change their plans with a new coach and no longer believes in Xavi even though he is a Barcelona legend.

it's news that has appeared in all the newspapers, I don't know if it's just rumors but if it were true the Arabs will offer a pharaonic contract that will be difficult to refuse, always considering that he will go there to do the phenomenon which he can't do much in Europe, in fact it surprised everyone including Lotito and the fans, however 11 million euro bonus with Luis Alberto who will sign a three-year contract for 8 million euro

Glad to see the Blues made the right decision in dropping their interest in acquiring Osimhen from Napoli. I really appreciate that. Based on his performance this season, osimhen is extremely erratic following the decline of his performance after napoli won serie a in the previous season. Osimhen will be another Nkuku. I'd rather pick Sesko instead of Osimhen.

Some disadvantages of targeting osimhen.

- Expensive - Inconsistent - High risk of injury

The blues could have learned a lot from what happened to the nkuku. Nkuku appeared in a few games, although he was injured for much the entire season. It would be extremely stupid for Chelsea to make the same error again.

The fact that Osimhen is prone to injury is the most essential factor here.  Chelsea will not spend 100 million on an injury-prone player like him.

It seems that Xavi's worries when he was still Barcelona coach were quite reasonable, but these concerns actually caused him to be fired from Barcelona. Even Guardiola, who was an outsider could see what Xavi was worried about. Therefore, Guardiola is reluctant to become Barcelona coach with Barcelona's current financial condition.

The decision has indeed been made, but if Laporta doesn't really want to open his eyes and furious at every criticism related to Barcelona's financial condition by his men, then Hansi Flick could be in the difficult situation that Xavi once felt.

The confirmation of not wanting Guardiola's return to Barcelona has also been contained in Fabrizio Romano tweet, so indeed we can be 99% sure if the remark has been issued by Guardiola, so far reported that the main reason Guardiola is reluctant to return to Barcelona is the difference in the way it works between Manchester City and Barcelona, in Manchester City, according to Guardiola, everything done by the team remains within the club,  while at Barcelona, many things tend to be public and handling the Barcelona bench is a more complicated job today than in the past.
From his words of course Guardiola will not try to risk his career as a coach to return to coach Barcelona with bad finances at the moment, Guardiola of course understands very well that the current Barcelona is not the previous Barcelona who was able to fulfill all his requests to bring in great players to support his success in coaching.

Indirectly, of course, Guardiola's words should slap Laporta in the face who fired Xavi, because indeed finance is the main problem of Barcelona at this time in competing with other teams, so Laporta should not have fired Xavi on the grounds of Xavi remarks that Barcelona is in a difficult economic crisis, honestly Laporta should start thinking that players and coaches who are more loyal and loyal to Barcelona so far besides Xavi,  Even I think Messi would never think about returning to Barcelona if Barcelona situation is like today.

Hasn't he done enough already? Look at the players he brought into the first team and how they dominated the world and you want him to go back? Lol.
T's a good decision by the big man. I think he'll be leaving the club Manchester City after the upcoming season as he has won it all and should be prolly looking for a national team he'll manage.

Pep Guardiola never bought player's at high valuation and fee's, he could bstill do with players from the academy but these process demands a lot of patience, support and backing. Has the fans got that patience in particular? I could see how they disrespected Xavi Hernandez a club legend which they never did with Ronald Koeman, Pep Guardiola wouldn't want that.

Barcelona are in safe hands. Hansi Flick has got the job and will definitely handle it very well.

You people might not agree with me but I think that's fair. This is definitely a good decision taken by Chelsea. The most important point that they have made is about his injury. Keep remembering that the English Premier League is a very highly competitive league. You know, the football is also very physical in this league.

So if he is getting injured in the Italian league so much, how much is he going to be injured in the English Premier League? That is something which Chelsea has kept in mind. They have also talked about his fee but I think all the players that have the same level of talent as him are actually going to cost like that. The cost of players have gone up a lot. style of play and injuries should be the main concern.

Considering from Goal.com, Pep Guardiola announced had closed the door return back to Barcelona one day later after his contract expiring with Manchester City. Its bad ideas for him returning back to Barcelona because financial problem and make Pep Guardiola lack opportunities for signing top players, actually Pep Guardiola is most successful manager with Barcelona by winning all trophies from La Liga, UEFA Champion League, Copa del Rey and success making the history or treble winner for his first appearances.

Since get difficult with financial, Barcelona less interested for Pep Guardiola and seems he can't bring back Barcelona become bigger team in European because every window transfer never sign top player. Pep Guardiola decision close the door return back to Barcelona is right because he want make bad reputation with his manager career always success winning domestic league every season.

This guy is a great talent, he has a great capability of being one of the best defenders in the world. But that is probably never going to happen if he decides to go to Manchester United. You know,  many promising players have become after going to Manchester United.

Liverpool might be a good place but I am not sure about that as well. Because they have just appointed a new coach. So things are going to be a little erratic. But if there is a choice to be made between Liverpool and Manchester United at this moment my sense said the better choice is probably going to be Liverpool.

The best decision for Gonçalo Inácio is probably going to be to wait. Wait and see if any other big clubs show interest in him.

Brighton Hove Albion reportedly will appoint St. Pauli coach who successfully moved up to the Bundesliga, namely Fabian Hürzeler. He was still quite young for a coach, and his success brought St. Pauli to the Bundesliga is quite impressive, but Brighton is a bigger club than St. Pauli and the competition in the English Premier League are quite different to the league in which Fabian Hürzeler coached previously, and it is the first club he has coached. https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1800214485287964922
It seems that appointing young coaches is the current trend for clubs, if Brighton gets an agreement then Fabian Hürzeler has quite a big pressure to bring this team back to be better because last season their performance was very disappointing even though they were still with the same coach, Roberto De Zerbi, it's just that indeed, this club is too aggressive in selling its skilled players, which disrupts the team's overall performance.

Two quite great coaches will take break this summer, they are reported to have rejected several offers that were made and chose not to accept work from any team, I think they really need to rest for at least one season.
Klopp and Tuchel are two coaches who are widely discussed by all football fans after their departure from the coaching chairs of the teams they previously led.
They may really want more time to rest and be with their families, something similar has previously been done by several other great coaches.
But for now it is not clear what their choices will be in the future because what is certain is that they will not retire early, for Tuchel himself the last step after his departure from Bayern Munich was to reject Manchester United offer.

Osimene is expected to sign for PSG, but PSG will be full if he joins. Although PSC are currently in a much weaker position with the loss of Mbappe, Osimen's move to PSG is the best news for the team at the moment. I also heard the news that Osimen will join PSG to fill Mbappe's place. And if he joins PSC he will be able to form a complete team, so I think it would be great if he signed to PSG.

Yamal will stay there till the end of his contract, no need to rush to see yamal play in the different league. There is no option for him to leave Barcelona unless the club decides to dismiss or sell him. He also has a release clause worth more than $1 billion right now, which club that is keen to spend 1 billion for a player like him. Lamine yamal's contract will likewise expire in 2026. There is still a long way to go.

It's meaningless to discuss his future considering yamal is still having 2 years to go in barcelona atm. Yamal is genuinely committed to staying in Barcelona. As you can see, Laporta worked hard to protect Yamal from potential offers from other clubs. PSG has little chance of acquiring him from Barcelona unless the club is willing to spend 1 billion on an unknown prospect like him.

Yamal's good at Barcelona. Who knows if Yamal will be playing badly once he joins his new club. It's preferable for him to stay for another season. It's too early for him to quit Barcelona and join the new club.
Barcelona is the appropriate club for him because Yamal requires an environment that can also support him.

The sale of Osimhen will create a serious economic resource for Napoli. With this resource, they can recruit new players. We know that Napoli sends many players to the European market. Osimhen is also one of the very talented actors. He is currently the most valuable African football player. If he joins Arsenal, I think he will make great contributions to them. Arsenal is a good team, but they have a few shortcomings, one of which is the lack of a strong striker like Osimhen.

Yes you are right Lamine Yamal impressive performances for Barcelona at just 17 years old are testament to his immense talent. His inclusion in Euro 2024 squad is well deserved and it is clear that he has bright future ahead. While transfer rumors will inevitably swirl after tournament I also believe Yamal will remain in Spain and continue to develop at Barcelona for at least another 3 4 years. His growth and success will likely attract interest from top clubs and I think move to English Premier League is more likely next step for him than transfer to Paris Saint Germain. Yamal future is exciting and it will be thrilling to watch him continue to flourish in years to come.

Lamine Yamal will be 17 years old and is playing great games in Barcelona. Yamal is also included in the Euro 2024 squad. Transfers will definitely be announced after Euro 2024, but I do not think Yamal will leave Spain in the short term. I think he will be in Spain and Barcelona for at least 3-4 more years. After Barcelona, ​​I think Yamal will probably go to the EPL. I think the chances of Paris SG are low.

Wow 😳 this is the first.. I never actually knew someone could even reserve a post in a topic that's blantanly moving like crazy every minute, hmm what seems to be so special about what is cooking up in your thoughts or the information you have gathered is still yet to be confirmed from a legit source ? 😂

Victor Osimhen is one of those who made his best contribution when making Napoli champions in the Serie A League in the 2022/23 season. Victor Osimhen was also very famous when Napoli managed to become champions in the Serie A League. If Napoli decided to sell one of their expert players then this would greatly weaken Napoli's strength. So far, Victor Osimhen is still one of the important players who can be relied upon at Napoli and it is not certain that Victor Osimhen's replacement will be equal to or much better than his skills.

Playing for PSG won't be that challenging in terms of getting trophies (domestic trophies I mean) because is only 2 clubs that can disturb PSG in the title race and the rest are walk over, they can't pressurize the Ligue 1 champions and money can make one not to play out his best. If in any way PSG bids for V. Osimhen and is a much higher bid I think it should be turned down because PSG is not a healthy club for players like him, and I feel he won't be confused in making a decision to play in France again or not, but you see the EPL, opportunities and challenges are all in the EPL if he decides to play in England.
