Mbappé to Real Madrid is a huge deal. Talking huge. Real Madrid did this wonderfully. Even though he's the world's best young talent, they didn't just give him money. They showed him Real Madrid's class and winning tradition without him. Mbappé is pleading to join Madrid, even taking a wage reduction from PSG!

He may have to wait longer to wear that renowned white jersey. His PSG and French national team responsibilities remain. He's always playing and winning. Real Madrid knows what they're doing. They'll make a big statement at the right time, possibly with Mbappé's friendly debut. You better watch out when he does! Mbappé adds to Real Madrid's world-class offense. Complete dominance is expected. Barcelona must improve to compete. Next year is Real Madrid's crown, and nobody will take it away. Nobody.

Mbappe is the main transfer topic for Real Madrid of course. We have discussed who knows how many times and finally it is highly likely to happen. I'm waiting excitedly for its being made official by Real Madrid side. 

I'm curious about other potential transfers as well because Real Madrid nearly always makes the right moves. They aren't like Manchester United for example.    God knows how much stronger squad they will have next season. After that I assume it would be really difficult to overthrow them in any tournament they play seriously. For example it is really hard for Barcelona to win a La Liga title with their current players.

I think modric deserves to stay at real madrid, and maybe even retire there. It might be difficult for him to find another team where he can blend into at that age. Of course, giving the younger players a playing time is very crucial, but let's not forget the importance of the older players. The blending of older players with younger players is the secret that is keeping madrid in form till date. That is what barce failed to do, leaving them with no choice than to start afresh.

Mbappe to madrid has been a rumor buzzing the internet for months. This player hasn't said anything yet, and madrid has also choose to stay silent. It seems some deals have been agreed behind the scene. His move to madrid needs to work out for him, as we all know that different leagues tends to favour different players.


Barcelona clearly can't even figure out their own problem. The FFP keeps tormenting them, rendering them useless in every transfer window. I really feel sorry for players like João Cancelo and João Felix, as they might end up moving back to their own club after the end of the season.

Madrid are not making plans for the present, but they are fixing the pictures of future. Just imagine having young players like Vini, Kylian, Rodrygo, Bellingham, Diaz, Rudiger, Guler, Camavinga, Tchouaméni, Endrick, etc in the next 5-7 years. I really pity other teams that would be competing for European titles

I think we still have a long time to see Mbappe debut in Madrid, apart from the fact that Mbappe has to spend the rest of the game with PSG this season, of course it looks like Mbappe will soon attend training in the French national team towards of Euro  2024 especially I see if the French national team schedule is quite busy including in the near future they will face matches against Luxembourg and also Canada in friendly matches,  So far it seems that Madrid are waiting for the right time to announce the signing of Mbappe and also possibly a debut in a friendly, but joining Mbappe to Madrid so far there has been no official confirmation from Mbappe and Madrid.

The joining of Mbappe to Madrid will certainly add sharpness to Madrid front line next season, so I think maybe we will no longer see fierce competition in the league next season, Madrid continuing to strengthen their current squad, but Madrid rivals actually seem to have no movement to recruit new players, indeed Barcelona is rumored to be eyeing several new players but so far it is still only an issue without any movement is quite active, so I think maybe next season La Liga will again be dominated by Madrid.

In this case, the conditions will be dictated by Real, apparently that Modric wants to continue playing, but changing Real to another club may become too difficult, since moving to some mediocre club can be very difficult mentally. Therefore, Modric will of course agree to a lower payment and to spend more time on the bench, but the question is whether Real Madrid needs this.

Moreover, Mbappe will come to the team and besides, they need to give more time to young players who will form the basis of the team in the future, so Modric’s time has definitely passed, we need to recognize this and give place to young players.

They are making a mistake in Barcelona. Xavi didn't have a bad performance in Barcelona during the time when he was working in this team and he could even have had a better place in the La Liga table and won the title at the end of this season if they didn't lose some points. Even in the game against PSG, they didn't have a bad performance.
Xavi was just worried about Barcelona and Laporta should understand it, they should support their coach and help him instead of talking about the other coaches.

Real Madrid and Modric were integrated even though the beginning of his arrival to the Santiago Bernabeu was considered the worst purchase in 2012.
Apart from the various possibilities for the possibility between the two, Modric is no longer possible to play like two seasons ago.
Real Madrid better end the Modric period by not extending his contract. Modric age is now 38 years old even though this season Modric games still have no decline.
It is time for Modric to enjoy the rest of the professional career and put the main focus to help the Croatian national team at the Euro performance.

PSG didn't play their cards right if you ask me, how do you let go off such a big talent for free after the huge wages paid over the years only for him to walkout as a free agent For all I care PSG fans should followup this with the guys calling the shots at the club as it doesn't add up!!

Otherwise this Mbappé move should breathe new life into Real Madrid and that combination with Vini , Bellingham and everyone will be exciting to watch and can't wait...

As of the cheapest deal, well let's just say PSG as a club lost out but Mbappe as a player might have gotten a lucrative deal because no other third parties involved

I've had enough of Ten Hag too. I think this is just what he's capable of and if he stays at Man United it will only make things even worse. At first, he came with many expectations attached to him but in the end, all these expectations still remain just wishful thinking. He spent so much money to make Man United even better, but what happened was that Man United got worse. The funny thing is that he always uses injury problems as the reason but that an injury issue could be caused by his mistake in implementing training and fitness methods for his players.

  I don't know what the importance of Modric for the Croatian national team still is at the moment, but it certainly isn't the same as it was 4/6/8 years ago. He could still contribute a lot I guess and he is the kind of player who can deliver beyond expectations, but he is going to turn 39 years old and I doubt that he still has the energy to carry the whole Croatian game as he often did in the past. So whether he gets playing time or not, he can still be an important part of the team with his presence and experience. But in the near term saying that Croatia is nothing without Modric were doomed to become true as Modric will soon retire I guess. It's time to rebuild the team already.

I think last season they did that too where we could see that everything was new for their midfielders when the old generation like Milner, Hendo and Fabinho were let go and looked for new alternatives with Szoboszlai, MacAllister and Endo. This is a refresh that has been done since last season, but their failure did not come from this, but the problem that occurred because they lost momentum amidst high self-confidence when they were always favorites but the reality did not match expectations, which made them mentally down. .

Next season they will be in a transition phase where the chemistry between the new coach and players may not be in sync well, so this is an important task now for the new coach to start taking an approach so that chemistry and cooperation can be established so that in the end performance is not disturbed. making this must be done immediately.

Is there any confirmation on this rumor? To be honest, I can't believe what anyone has said about mbappe and Real Madrid since so many rumors have bee in circulating were fake. enough is enough for this. It's been years, and most of the news is fake. Keep waiting for official confirmation caused by that is the only thing that will tell us about the truth. I strongly believe that the internal agreement has not yet occurred between mbappe and madrid.
Can you identify the party that has been reporting it? It's amazing how many times the majority of the media predicted that Mbappe would come to the real Madrid, but it never happened.

Don't you know about Tuche's story? Tuchel was reported to be fired by Bayern, but the club decided to keep him. The problem is that Tuchle is now deciding to leave the club.

The source named Football Transfers says that Michael Olise is a target for Arsenal, Manchester United and Aston Villa. However in this race I think the Red Devils have a difficult work to do because of not qualifying for the Champions League. 

Olise is only 22 years old now. He has a good future considering his performances so far. This season is his most productive season with 10 goals, 5 assists in 18 Premier League games. He is a great kind of a winger by scoring lots of goals in addition to passes. His current market value is 50 million euros but Crystal Palace would surely demand quite more money for him.

Of course, injuries are very detrimental obstacle for the team and when player with good quality is injured it causes each team performance to decline quite significantly, but the steps taken by Liverpool must be balanced by bringing in other players as replacements.
This season they performed very well until the end of the season arrived but after remaining few games Liverpool experienced series of problems which required them to suffer decline in performance and lose the opportunity to compete for the title.
I don't know what Liverpool will do in preparation for next season, but what is certain is that I believe they will get rid of players who really don't contribute much and bring in players who are much better, especially considering that there are several core players whose contracts are about to expire.

But personally, I would rate Liverpool as having fairly weak defensive performance, front line was more than enough to be able to break through every opponent defense, but Liverpool defense made several mistakes which gave them gaps to concede.
They do things like this quite often and the defense line is very important part of the strength of football team.

If I remember correctly, Real Madrid asked Modric to stay in Real Madrid, but he can't play for Croatia national team during his stay. But now it's Modric that asking the team to extend his contract, Croatia without Modric will be in danger, they won't able to achieve anything in EURO 2024.

If Modric demanded to stay in Real Madrid and at the same time he also want to play for Croatia national team, this might be the reason why Real Madrid didn't automatically accept to extend his contract.

Modric is working hard to stay at his current club by telling the management if he is willing to stay and get a new short term contract. As reported by romano in his most recent post if modrid has stated that he has been waiting for madrid. he has stated that Modric has informed the club that he wishes to stay for another season and hoping to get a new contract. It indicates that he is extremely loyal to the club and his heart is madrid now. This is more than what he has done to Tottenham. Being able to be a part of Real Madrid is a great opportunity for him considering madrid is on the way to be on the top again like when ronaldo was still there.
Modric is not yet ready to retire from football. This is why he is willing to accept another contract. He has also turned down two lucrative offers from other clubs in order to join Real Madrid. I believe Madrid could even cut his salary and he would be fine with it.

We have yet to see what the Real Madrid decision will be. That being said, Modric should be prepared for the worst-case scenario in which Madrid does not send him a new short-term contract to extend his stay at the club. I agree if he stays for another season.
Even though he was not young, he developed young talent, which is extremely beneficial to Real Madrid's long-term planning.

An internal agreement has been reached between Mbappe and Real Madrid, now we are just waiting for an official announcement from the club as a sign that Mbappe will be part of the Real Madrid squad for next season. Real Madrid is certainly looking forward to Mbappe arrival because for the last few years they have failed to bring him in. However, it seems like there will be an imbalance in the Real Madrid squad if Mbappe arrives because there will be two superstars (Vinicius and Mbappe) who will compete to be the best in the squad. It looks like Real Madrid will have to sacrifice one of their strikers to make room for Mbappe, Vinicius is also reportedly wanting to leave Real Madrid as a result of Mbappe arrival.

Many are looking forward to that after this season ends sooner or later we will find out about Mbappe's tenure at Real Madrid and Real Madrid will contract Mbappe for the long term because we know Mbappe's performance so far, he is a pretty good striker and Real Madrid got him for free an advantage for Real Madrid, indeed when the club is successful and always wins big titles the players definitely want to join the best club and Real Madrid is the best club in the world so who doesn't want to go to Real Madrid? It is very natural that Mbappe decided to go to Real Madrid even though this club did not buy him because Mbappe is the one who needs Real Madrid to achieve his dream of becoming a superstar player like his idol Cristiano Ronaldo.

Even though at Real Madrid Mbappe doesn't get as big a salary as at PSG, at least at Real Madrid Mbappe can achieve his dream, namely winning the Champions League title which is the dream of many clubs. He has fought quite a long way with PSG to get his dream title but always fails because Mbappe seems to be fighting alone. at PSG, but at Real Madrid he will get colleagues who have equal performance and work together to achieve success.

Barcelona which is currently ending their season with the second spot is good performance from them while they are having terrible things around due to their finances but still they are doing good job with for the next season now they are looking for the few new players which are looking not easy for them because if they want to have few good new blood players then firstly they have to sell their few big names which are not already done their job at this club and now need to be gone ahead for their next destination.

Luiz Diaz is in rumours for the possible transfer but most chances Liverpool will be never allow him to leave but in case they have to pay hug amount for him which is surely problem for the Barcelona but still we have to wait few days for the possible outcome of this transfer which is surely good for the Barcelona.

I'm waiting for Real Madrid to announce the date of Mbappé's debut at the Santiago Bernabeu. Looking at the long-term love story with Kylian Mbappé, we can see how classy Real Madrid is. Even though Mbappé is the brightest talent in the world today, Real Madrid does not recruit the French striker at any cost. As time passed, with the successes "without Mbappé", Real Madrid showed that it was  Mbappé who had to find a way to play for Real Madrid. And as I know, Mbappé even accepted to reduce his salary compared to when he was at PSG. This is considered Real Madrid's cheapest deal.
