De Bruyne is undoubtedly an important player in Guardiola’s team, but the last season was not the best for him, at first he missed a lot due to injury, and he was unable to return fully, and Guardiola often changed him without allowing him to finish the whole match, that is, this shows that he is not that important for City now, or Guardiola is just trying to show that there are no irreplaceable players in his team. 32 years old is not so young anymore, of course he can play for a few more years, but perhaps he will think about how to ensure a comfortable life, in these few years, as long as he can play.
Kevin de Bruyne is one of the mainstay players for Manchester City, his role in midfield is very pronounced because he can be creative in building attacks. However, he had to suffer an injury and it had a slight effect on his performance, although overall it didn't have much of an impact, but still the decline was felt a little for Manchester City.

I don't know yet if he still wants to play in Europe or if he will spend his time outside Europe and prefer to earn big money at the end of his career. Actually, he is not that old now, he can still give his best game in my opinion. However, if he wants to earn a large income, then the Saudi Pro League will also be an option for him, especially since there are also many players who have joined first. He has to think about this carefully, because when he goes to Arabia and if he wants to go back to Europe I think it will be a little difficult, so he can consider it first.
Currently, De Bruyne is really closely associated with the SPL, for some reason, if this really happens, it is possible that Manchester City will lose very important figure because De Bruyne is player who can always be relied on to break through every opposing team defense.
I consider De Bruyne to be really sharp assist machine for Manchester City and he has helped the front line players lot in creating goals and winning every match.
De Bruyne also has contract that only remains for next season and he has also spent almost 10 season with Manchester City, he has won many titles and various major contributions that De Bruyne has made during his time as part of Manchester City.
I think his departure could be very regrettable thing, but some people also hope that there is still desire for Manchester City to try to keep him and extend his contract and desire for De Bruyne to stay, after all he is not old.

It is true that Aston villa has achieved a great feat with unai emery by getting champions league football, but for me this is not enough reason to grant him a 5 year contract. Not to disregard the coach technical prowess, just what I do feel. The contract seem like a rush
This is good point we need to be had this with 2 years or 3 years better because giving 5 years contract is big deal and this can bring some problems for the both parties as well.
This seems to be the plan since the beginning[1]. Based on what I've read, the long-term contract is probably to ward off other clubs from approaching him in the middle of the season, likely because they will have to pay more to get his service. I'm not sure how much the money for breaking the contract is, but it sounds like Villa is confident this new contract will help them establish a longer partnership with him. I'm sure he's doing a good job behind the scenes, hence why the management is confident to reward him with this new contract.

Great news for Aston Villa fans today the club have signed Unai Emery to a 5 year contract
https://www.avfc.co.uk/news/2024/may/27/unai-emery-agrees-new-five-year-contract/
Although the previous agreement was until 2027, but apparently after Aston Villa's historic first Champions League appearance and 4th place in the EPL the management decided to renew and extend the agreement with Unai Emery.
Great decision for both sides, because Emery is just great at coaching average teams and making them successful, as he did before with Sevilla and Villereal, and now with Aston Villa and the club management now has a reliable head coach with whom they can build a strategy for years to come.

There is no doubt things are going pretty interesting into Aston Villa with they are having good end of their last season and chances are high they could be stayed at this level in future as well because they are doing good job and having sources as well which are important for the staying at this level, but now next season could be challenging because we are having few teams are doing their best for having better end and better spot in the future.

They already gave Chelsea the green light to proceed with talks with the manager’s camp and they are already in advanced talks and the deal is likely to happen very soon.
This is transfer window and we're seeing club recruiting new coaches with potentials. It's amazing how everything worked out so good for some coaches and play out roughly for some. Maresca is coming and I believe him to be one of the promising coaches in the EPL next season. Todd Boehly happens to be one of these owners that quickly runs our of patience and he'd taking decision that's absolutely not suitable for the club side. Chelsea is one of the best club in London but if Todd Boehly continues like this, there are quite important  phases that would affect the club's pattern of play.

We have xavi and why does chelsea need naglesmann? it doesn't even make sense to see that considering the fact that if chelsea needs a visioner coach who can develop the young talent. What chelsea needs is xavi. Xavi is jobless now and it will be great if chelsea will try to pursuit him as a new coach for the club.

There are so many great coaches available for chelsea this time. The final decision will be on todd's hand whether he will be willing to recruit him as a new coach.

Xavi is a good choice for Chelsea also but I haven’t heard any news linking to Chelsea contacting Xavi to be their new coach, not even a rumour about that have I heard. If Xavi can succeed in a team with internal problems and still come out victorious because to me, that position he finished and how far he came in the champions league is marvellous. He has come a long way and I hope he Barcelona would have seen that from him and didn’t allow him to leave so soon.

By the way, he will be a good coach for Chelsea if he joins them, he can manage those young players better into the way that suits his game pattern well. The possibility of that happening now cannot be ascertain because Chelsea are almost on a close deal to sign a new coach rumoured to Leicester City current coach that managed them and brought them back into the premier league after a great season with them.

I am not quite familiar with this new coach but I know that it is not based on the former record of a coach that will reflect his performance in a new team. A coach can have a wonderful record coming from a club and then when he gets to a club like Chelsea becomes a big flop, we saw that with Graham Potter. The exact thing that Chelsea faithfuls should hope for right now is that the new coach should be a perfect fit for the team just like Unai Emery is a perfect fit for Aston villa because if he is a perfect fit for the team then he can do really well with the young and promising squad that Chelsea has.

In my opinion Xavi is not really a terrible coach because with what he achieved at Barcelona despite managing a team that is financially struggling he was still able to lift the La Liga trophy. I also don’t want him at Chelsea but imagine what he would be able to achieve with a team that is financially stable. So with that i think Xavi will go to become a good coach in future.
The future of Barcelona is in the hands of the president, Joan Laporta. He's one of the top pillars of the club but his management doesn't seem to be promising as expected, watching Barcelona decline and this have been really one of the unnecessary run for the club. Xavi Hernandez is no terrible coach because he lifted Barcelona from ruins when he got appointed as headcoach. He's this type of manager that would give more opportunities for the young talents because he have strong beliefs in their positive growth.

I don't think that Barcelona is financially struggling or perhaps we don't know them as the media potray them. If Xavi is aware of yhe club financial situation, no way they are going to allow him signed Lewandowski and be earning such amount. He was in his prime in Bayern Munich and a great striker but there are other options available for them to look into but yet he went for that and currently earning highest money in that club.
For the fact that a club is declared financially unstable doesn't mean that the club doesn't have funds to run the club but instead it means that the club cannot afford further expenses outside the ones they are already running within the club so if Barcelona can afford an important player like Robert Lewandowski and can still pay his salary and other entitlement doesn't mean that the club has enough finance and if the media is wrong about the financial state of Barcelona then why didn't the club rise up and debunked it instead of keeping quiet and if you check Barcelona during the time of Lionel Messi you will know that the club wasn't as silent as they are now even though the influence of the Argentine international professional footballer also aided the team but yet Barcelona were financially capable so nothing is hidden under the sun, if Barcelona had enough cash i think they would have made some good signings so the financial status of Barcelona still maintains that the club is lacking funds.

It was not hidden that they were financially unstable because a lot of players had to go through a paycut in their wages to relief the team a little bit, Lewandowski also had to go through aa pay cut as well and not just the players even Xavi himself had to cut down his wages all for the love he has for the team. He was well aware of their financial condition but the team needed a top class striker after Suarez left and Lewandowski made it clear he wanted to join only Barcelona, when he joined he wasn’t at his prime as you said he was already approaching the ending days of his career. His caliber cannot earn lower than what he earns that’s why he is paid such amount and Barcelona desperately needed his services.

Maresca was able to brought Leicester City from the sham manager that made them relegated but you think Leicester will come this far to sell Maresca to Chelsea, if they sell him for Chelsea even at expensive price, who will help them maintain the Premier League tournament. It's better he stick to what he knows than been drag in the mud by Chelsea fans.

Currently Chelsea are in advanced talks with Enzo Maresca the coach who led Leicester City back the premier league again. From his Tactics being analyzed and Leicester City’s current style of play i think he is good tactically and should be able to manage these Chelsea youngsters properly.

In terms of coaching, we actually don't need to doubt what Conte is doing because even with his seemingly odd and temperamental attitude, he is one of the coaches who is still quite good in this era but indeed we must also be aware that his previous experience at Chelsea with now (if this rumor is true) it cannot be equated.

Conte in the Abramovich Era was given full power including in the squad and management to suit his comfort and for this season I am actually a little worried about what Todd is doing which seems to impose a will that could be a problem in the end. In addition, considerations are also for Chelsea because Conte does not really like long-term contracts and the reason is as I said before where he always does whatever he wants and if what he plans is a bit of a problem he does not hesitate to leave and that should be a consideration because after all this can be a little detrimental to Chelsea if they in one season have to keep changing their coach as has happened in the last 2 seasons.

But I doubt Conte will come to a club that might not give him freedom. because he remembers his character. And speculation about clubs approaching Conte is actually quite varied. It is even reported that Conte will also meet with Napoli. And now the news regarding the new candidate who will replace Pochettino also seems to be quite confusing. But the most popular news is that the candidates are Enzo Maresca from Leicester City and Xavi, who was recently fired from Barcelona. And there is also another name that is rumored to be a candidate for Chelsea's new coach, namely Thomas Frank. But the news about Conte being approached by Chelsea is also quite warm, but this news seems to overlap. Because one report stated that Conte wanted to return to being Chelsea coach, and another news that Chelsea was persuading Conte to return as Chelsea coach.

Conte to Chelsea in this era is the wrong move and that will definitely send Chelsea closer to relegation; the squad is very younge and also expensive; Chelsea needs a good tactician and great manager to manage the squad, nagglesman comes to mind tbh

Conte won’t fit well at all
We have xavi and why does chelsea need naglesmann? it doesn't even make sense to see that considering the fact that if chelsea needs a visioner coach who can develop the young talent. What chelsea needs is xavi. Xavi is jobless now and it will be great if chelsea will try to pursuit him as a new coach for the club.

There are so many great coaches available for chelsea this time. The final decision will be on todd's hand whether he will be willing to recruit him as a new coach.

Why is Xavi in Chelsea? To try to make a second Barcelona with a squad that was assembled by 5 different coaches? This move seems most dubious to me. Both Conte and Nuggelsman would be a good option, but don’t expect miracles from Chelsea - in any case, their ceiling is top 4 next season. If they get there it will be a success.
In my opinion Xavi is not really a terrible coach because with what he achieved at Barcelona despite managing a team that is financially struggling he was still able to lift the La Liga trophy. I also don’t want him at Chelsea but imagine what he would be able to achieve with a team that is financially stable. So with that i think Xavi will go to become a good coach in future.

Of all the coaches you mentioned i don’t see anything special in them, Conte was once our coach and he is known for his defensive strategy and considering the caliber of players in Chelsea i don’t think that style of play would suit them. As for Nuggelsman he is also good but Chelsea needs a coach that would be able to manage these youngsters properly.

Currently Chelsea are in advanced talks with Enzo Maresca the coach who led Leicester City back the premier league again. From his Tactics being analyzed and Leicester City’s current style of play i think he is good tactically and should be able to manage these Chelsea youngsters properly.

Barcelona have turned down a €60 million off for winger Raphinha from a Premier League club,
with Aston Villa, Chelsea and Manchester United all interested in the Brazil international

I think Barcelona has made the right decision. If they let him go for 60 million, they wouldn’t have found a player who is equal or better than him with that money. So in my personal opinion, Barcelona made the decision that is going to help their club in the long run.

By the way, I think this could also be an indication that if they want to get this player, they will have to spend more money. So I think Barcelona might actually get much more better offers for him from other clubs. Because he is definitely a good player. I believe that Barcelona said they are going to sell him for something more than 80 million if I remember correctly. And I can see some big clubs paying that money for him to be honest.

Source: Footballtransfers
Raphinha was a very good player while he was in the premier league,his pace and dribbling ability made so many clubs sought after him in the transfer window,he was finally bought by Barcelona,and ever since then,he has been showing incredible skills whenever he's been called upon to play.Because they are in the Champions league for next season,they won't want to sell him now, because he is still their star man.But I think if a club offers close to 75 million pounds to Barcleona,they would sell,as long as it is on the player's mind to leave.

Crystal Palace are in possession for this incredible player and countless moments, he single-handedly deliver Crystal Palace with his stunning goals for the club. He's young and promising for longterm projects, perhaps with the sights from elite clubs, Manchester United and Chelsa. I'm a blue fan and would really persuade him to accept offers from the Blues because he will definitely have sufficient game time. Michael Akpovie Olise is talented footballer and have grown to become a top player for his club, let's see what happen to him next.

Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea are reported to really want Michael Olise, to be honest, this is a good opportunity for Crystal Palace to get big money from the sale of Olise, Olise as a striker is quite good, he is quite sharp in front of goal, Arsenal have to work hard to get his services , there is a big possibility for Arsenal to become EPL champions next season if they are successful in getting Olise, Arsenal's attack power is very weak.

Arsenal will clearly be able to provide new experience to Michael Olise because if he joins there, he will be able to play in the Champions League next season. However, it seems that what determines it is not Olise's wishes, but rather will be influenced by the amount of money that Crystal Palace can obtain from the deal, and which team really has the seriousness to sign Michael Olise. Whatever the result, it is still a good thing for Michael Olise's career because both Chelsea, Man United, and Arsenal are good teams and could be the right place for him to continue to improve, and get bigger wages.
He is 22 years old and has 10 goals and 6 assists in 19 games in the Premier League. Moreover, he does this with Crystal Palace. He might have better stats next year with Arsenal, Chelsea or Manchester United. The team that wants to transfer him will of course have to pay a very high transfer fee to his team. Important transfers are being discussed for Chelsea next year. If they can achieve these, they will be an important team for the Premier League championship next year.

He could ruin his career in the last two teams, as rude as it sounds, but as long as they are run by managers who are sinking their teams, there is no point in moving to those teams. Both teams will probably have a new coach in the new season, but it is better for him not to move to such unstable teams, especially when there will be new managers who are not proven....
The performances of the last two teams in the coming years are actually important. They can take their performance to the next level, create the best squad and compete for the championship next year. In this case, perhaps one of the people who will contribute to the team will be Michael Olise. They have to choose the best option together with the manager to be in the best places next year. It's critical option time for Olise.

At this point, it's not even known if these teams will change coaches. Ten Hag genuinely doesn't understand why they want to sack him, after all he won a trophy this season and he doesn't care that he and his team finished in 8th place in the EPL, that his schemes don't really work. This is an amazing man, apparently he really thinks he did a great job.  That's why if I were Olise I would think 100 times before moving to such clubs, it's obviously not his level, you have to look a bit higher

I think the only problem now if Chelsea are considering Conte for next season is where they must be able to convince and reduce Conte's sometimes uncontrolled emotions.

Conte is a good option even if compared to some other rumors between Chelsea and the coach then indeed Conte is the most normal and best to date but Conte's problem is that he doesn't really like the old stuck so he only wants to meltih when what he thinks is good looks good and does not hesitate to leave if indeed the plan he implemented does not work well for his club.

Therefore he did not last long with a club because the longest he coached a club was 2 seasons so that this could indeed be a condition that was not very good if indeed Chelsea hoped for a long term.
The case of Tottenham before the Postecoglou era should be a consideration that in the end if they want Conte to be at Chelsea then they must be prepared with conditions like this.

Conte is a very discipline man with a lot of specifications on what he wants so the management of Chelsea have to understand this, I believe he has coach this Chelsea team before of which he had a good spell not until everything starts falling apart but thier is no doubt that the man is good coach and that's exactly what Chelsea needs now, someone who is well experienced and knows the job because if they get anyone who is termed with just the name of a coach they might probably be more messed up than they already are.
In terms of coaching, we actually don't need to doubt what Conte is doing because even with his seemingly odd and temperamental attitude, he is one of the coaches who is still quite good in this era but indeed we must also be aware that his previous experience at Chelsea with now (if this rumor is true) it cannot be equated.

I think Xavi will be successful if he comes to Chelsea. He has a similar structure to Spanish coaches who are tactically good, such as Pep and Xabi. I think Xavi can choose Chelsea, which can buy him the players he wants. Xavi has a great game intelligence. He knows very well where to intervene in the game. Last year, despite the impossible odds, they finished ahead of Real Madrid and became champions. They closed this season with the second best finish. I think Xavi can be successful at Chelsea
Even if Xavi has a similar style as Pep Guardiola and Xabi Alonso, there is no guarantee to be easier successful in Chelsea. We know Chelsea has a complicated problem, too. Chelsea is not so different with Man United, these teams are difficult teams to manage by any coach in the world. I think only a coach who has a good charismatic characteristic like Zidane who can manage the team. Unfortunately, there is no way that Chelsea can ensure Zidane to be their next coach.

Well Xavi may have great intelligence but Xavi still doesn't have enough successful experience in a top team. With Barcelona, Xavi failed to win UCL or Europa league competition. Xavi also failed to win domestic trophies in his second seasons managing Barcelona. Well, the reason may be about the quality of Barcelona squad. But I think Xavi should go far in international competitions and win at least 2 domestic league. So, because Xavi can prove his quality as a coach in Barcelona, I am not sure he will be successful in Chelsea.

Great news for Aston Villa fans today the club have signed Unai Emery to a 5 year contract
https://www.avfc.co.uk/news/2024/may/27/unai-emery-agrees-new-five-year-contract/
Although the previous agreement was until 2027, but apparently after Aston Villa's historic first Champions League appearance and 4th place in the EPL the management decided to renew and extend the agreement with Unai Emery.
Great decision for both sides, because Emery is just great at coaching average teams and making them successful, as he did before with Sevilla and Villereal, and now with Aston Villa and the club management now has a reliable head coach with whom they can build a strategy for years to come. 

The 52-year-old Spaniard deserves to have this contract. He has changed the fortune of Aston Villa, a club that was sitting in 17th position when he took over after the sack of Steven Gerrard. The club finished fourth qualifying for the Champions League for the first time since 1982–83. The fans and the club owners are satisfied with his performance which is why they extended his contract. He was able to take Aston Villa to the semi-finals of the Europa Conference League this season. maybe he can replicate the same feat next season in the Uefa Champions League.   

Xavi that almost cried because Barcelona executives and fans weren't appreciating his work while managing Barcelona is what you guys are asking to come and manage Chelsea, with desperation of fans and board of directors asking for too much, if someone like Xavi should come to Chelsea and nothing changes, they will frustrate him and Todd Boehly will be incline to sell the hel remaining part of the club.
Clubs like Barcelona are trophy-hungry. A trophyless season is equal to failure in Barcelona. Staying in such a club for two or three seasons without a Champions League trophy will lead to a sack. Xavi is not a bad coach but he performed below Blaugrana's standard so he has to leave. I don't think the Spanish coach is on the list of managers Chelsea is chasing to replace Mauricio Pochettino.

Here we go. Another unexpected thing is coming again. According to the latest rumor, Ratcliff has contacted De Zerbi to be a successor for ten hag if club will sack him. If this report is correct, ten hags will be fired by manchester united. Manchester United fans must be welcoming him as a new coach when it becomes a reality. I know t's hard to accept it.

Chelsea is an unbelievable club filled with so many bad decisions. What's all the hype around De Zerbi? I'm not totally impressed with what he did at Brighton. Beautiful football is not all there is to the game. I understand and agree that playing beautifully is good but building the team and winning is also important. You need to develop the players, and win games. Brighton under De Zerbi loses by too many margins, and they concede a lot of goals.
I believe De Zerbi will do better in a not-so-big team. Or maybe Juventus will be a good team for him, but Chelsea will be a bad idea.
It's all my speculation though and how I view the game, but I believe there is a different pressure in Chelsea than Brighton.
In the situation where Chelsea is now, they need an experienced manager. They need a manager who can care about winning too.
Chelsea needs to win a trophy next season, you can't spend over a billion and not  have anything to show for it
