I am still wondering if Lionel Messi has indeed moved to Manchester City. That kind of picture always appears on my IG page. I haven't checked yet if that loan option has an agreement from both sides.

And of course, this is a distraction from the bad performance of clubs.

I don't think this picture is true. I don't think Pep Guardiola will be thinking of trying to bring Messi in loan to Manchester City considering his age, high wage, and physicality of the league. What Manchester City needs to do now is to address their medical staff and also recruitment department.

Although Messi was Pep's former player in Barcelona. He has no intention to bring him to the City as a loan. He stays focus on regenerating his current squad. Some names already mentioned by various sources, but kindly wait for the execution to happen i the next days.

City is a rich club, but they won't willing to pay an old guy with very high salary. I know he's GOAT, but prefer to get a fresh young talent with bunch of potentials. I believe it's cheap rumor.

If Man City were still thinking twice about extending De Bruyne's contract I don't think they would have thought of signing Messi. Kevin De Bruyne is 4 years younger than Messi and if City are reluctant to extend his contract there is no reason for them to buy a player who is much older.

They may be rich, but I doubt they would gamble crazily on uncertainty. Man City will surely be on the hunt for talented young players just like when they signed Savinho, Doku, and Haaland.

Agree. It should be a fake picture. There is no way that Guardiola wants to sign Messi because he is no needed in Man City. I'm not sure if Messi will fit with the game style of Man City, he is too old for England domestic competition as well. EPL needs a strong player, Messi will be too difficult to adapt with EPL competition.

I don't see any problem with their medical staff, Man City only needs to sign some stronger defenders. They have too weak defenders, they are easily conceded goals when they already lead the score. It indicates Man City have no proper defense, it should be improved very soon. Since it is almost the transfer window, Man City must prepare their scouts to monitor some potential defenders in the market.

Messi to City never made sense, dude is just too old, and he doesn't have what it takes to play at premier league level anymore, certainly not at a great team like City who tries to normally win a title.

Sure I am aware that they are far away from that this season, and 1 win in 13 games makes them look like a terrible team, but normally they were pretty great, won four in a row most recently, so having Messi to a team like that would not really give them what they need. I know they need to have some changes, but not entirely sure what that will be, we need to just try our best to see what that could result in and how they could find some younger players who could have hunnger and fire in them and will work harder to win than the current squad.

The recruitment of messi is only a short-term solution for manchester city at the moment, so I think the arrival of messi will not really affect the style and strategy of manchester city game later, especially so far messi is a player who easily adapts to the style of play applied by a coach, but my doubts only lie in his ability to adapt to the tight competition of the English league or not at this time, although he has extraordinary abilities with his skills and speed but we know that the English league often relies on physicality in its games, he is no longer young and playing with his agility will only increase the potential for him to get injured remember the hard game by the English league teams defenders so far, I think he will contribute to Manchester City with his abilities and experience but maybe it won't be enough to help Manchester City rise for the rest of the season.

I heard the deal will be for six months. There is a very low probability that Messi will reunite with Pep Guardiola at Manchester City. City doesn't need a player like Messi because his performance will not match the expectations in the Premiership. The club needs some strong set of midfielder and defenders to come out of this downward trend. No doubt the Argentine superstar has experience, and exceptional leadership skills and could inspire players but I doubt his on-the-pitch performance, but his state now perfectly suits the US or Saudi Leagues.

However, if this move ever happens it might be for commercial purposes. Bringing Messi to Etihad will attract endorsement deals to the club. Jersey sales could also be a viable means to benefit from his signing.

Of course the picture is fake because there have been no confirmation of this move. Artificial intelligence can generate multiple of such pictures or it can easily be photoshopped.

I'm seeing Turkish league is the wrong place for Osimhen. He should stay at the big club in the big league. Turkish league is the right place to retire from a high tension of football competition. He has a dream to play in EPL, and hopefully, he can make it happen soon.

It's disappoint me if a potential talent like him wasted. I only hope he won't be ended in Manchester United, or he will be another flop.

It's a bit disappointing for a player like Osimhen because he should have been able to play in a much more competitive league and the Turkish league is a place to enjoy his time before he retires. There were many offers that might have passed him by during the previous transfer window and there was a lot of drama that happened so that he failed to play in a much more competitive league.
The decision to play in the EPL would be much better because then Osimhem can continue to show his best qualities as one of the dangerous strikers and I also don't expect him to end up in a much less profitable way for him.

Victor Osimhen is indeed a very good player to continue to develop, but the Turkish league is also not that bad there is also still a competitive competition but when compared to big leagues such as the English premier league, la league and others are still far behind but it is not a difficult thing for him to work, Although he is in a low league but he must still be able to give the best performance, if he can be above the average player in the Turkish league there will certainly be many who offer him at a high price to join a big team in the big league, but if his performance is the same and tends not to develop it will only be a futile dream.

Salah has made a new record as a player with most scoring and assists, yet he has said on his post-game interview if his contract is far from complete.

Millions of Liverpool fans will very disappoint if their club let him leaves as the summer. Salah's getting even better when he aged, and this rarely happened in the football.

He has reaches it in less than 20 matches. It's not to call him as one of best player this season. Why doesn't LFC just fulfill all of his requirement? It's easy to defend him to stay.

Liverpool are looking at his age. Maybe Liverpool are trying to give him a contract with a lesser year and Salah might be asking for more years. You know Liverpool have this policy of not keeping aged players in their team. Salah is a good player, but there is no way Liverpool are going to give him up to 3 years contract anymore. His wage bill is also very high, so Liverpool don't want to continue paying that much longer for a player of Salah's age. Liverpool fans just have to bear it in mind that a day is coming when Salah will not be part of the team anymore. If Salah is to sign a new deal at Liverpool, he would definitely want a contract that's up to 3 years. So that he will be sure that his future has been sorted out. Players like it when they know that they are settled in a place for a long time. And not always on the move every year or two. I think the number of years is what's really stalling his contract extension at Liverpool.

Nobody knows for sure why until now there is no certainty regarding the contract extension. I had thought whether it was because Salah wanted a higher salary than now and Liverpool could not meet that because they thought Salah was no longer young, or perhaps there were other problems that prevented the agreement from happening.

Regardless of whatever the obstacles are, but isn't there already a strong bond between Liverpool and Salah? Isn't that enough to make one of them willing to give in, so that the contract extension can be realized?

I'm sorry Garnaho, but if i were you, i would choose to join in Atletico Madrid. You have no place in Manchester United, and forever will be stuck without any improvements. Garnacho is good, but he's in the wrong club. He shall make a move to get more experience.

La liga is gonna be the right destination for him. I wonder if there's someone else who have the same though like me. Grin

Garnacho can step up his career if he leaves from his current club.

Garnacho still cannot earn trust from Amorim even i have to says Garnacho is not the main option for Amorim strategy it proven when derby of Manchester several times ago Amorim has decide not putting Garnacho into Manchester United squad i think after this incident Garnacho should be think twice his future on Manchester United because if he decide to stayed there is possibility next season Garnacho only will spend his time at the bench

I can see Atletico Madrid is really serious want to buy Garnacho from Manchester United because reported Atletico Madrid will bid him for 60 million i think with this price Manchester United should be thinking this offer and sell Garnacho but if this rumour is really happend i think it is good step for Garnacho career and as far as i know Garnacho is came from Atletico Madrid youth academy

I don't think Napoli will make this mistake again. They already had problems with this once and just because of this mistake, Osimhen is not playing in one of the teams he should be in. Of course, we will not watch him in Galatasaray next season, he will probably be transferred to Manchester United or a similar team. It wouldn't be right for them to repeat the same mistake and do something that could harm the player's career, and they also wouldn't want to reduce their chances of making money thanks to Osimhen

The final verdict is whether they want to benefit from Osimhen's sale or not. Considering it's only this transfer season that Napoli have the opportunity to sell him at a decent price, I hope Napoli are not selfish anymore and learn from their mistakes. Osimhen is now playing outside of Europe and would be a strong reason to lower his price. The proceeds of this sale could inject funds into the recruitment of new players who could be more affordable, as Napoli's needs in the domestic league must continue to be strengthened with additional players.

Despite being the most outstanding player in the English Premier League this season, Mohammed Salah who's current contract with Liverpool expires in June 2025 is yet to receive any contract extension offer from the club and yesterday after his stellar performance against West Ham, the Egyptian was blunt enough to tell the media that there's no progress yet concerning his contract with the club. Liverpool management needs to act fast or risk losing Salah to one of these European big clubs. Salah's performance this season is a testament to the fact that he's still got a lot left in his tank so losing him will definitely be a great loss for the Merseyside club

Currently, we are only talking from the information we heard which has no authenticity yet. Let's wait till January when the transfer window will be open. That's is when we would know if Osimhen will move over to Manchester United or not. If Osimhen is enjoying himself in Galatasaray and feel there's no reason of him leaving the club, that's fine. No one would force any player to go against his will.

True, this is just speculation or rumors circulating at the moment and the certainty cannot be ascertained, it is better to wait in the transfer window later, there we will find something more certain, whether this rumor will indeed come true or will just be a rumor without certainty. Osimhen himself must be looking for a team that wants to bring him in seriously, maybe he doesn't want to stay long with Galatasaray. However, the real obstacle is the team that currently owns him, Napoli. It depends on them, whether they will lower the transfer fee or not at all.

I have more or less the same feeling as you about Garnacho's future with Manchester United. I think why doesn't he try to gain more experience in a different league for a club that is interested in him. Because he is still young and it is a great opportunity to gain experience in his youth. But on the other hand I also think Garnacho could be one of the young players who will bring Manchester United success, because now they have a new coach. I mean the hope is back, but he also has to show his ability to be in the first team and play regularly.

~snip~

Alexander-Arnold has already informed the Liverpool management that he wants to move to Real, it seems that he is determined to do so. This is not his decision today, rumors about this have been going around for a long time and Liverpool had enough time to decide this with him. In addition, we do not know, maybe there are other reasons why Alexander-Arnold wants to leave Liverpool, but in any case, I think that Liverpool made a mistake in letting such a player go as a free agent. They did not renew the contract with Salah for a long time either, but it seems that they managed to agree with this player.

Alexander-Arnold is player who has been with Liverpool for quite a long time and he is also still 26 years old, there are still many opportunities if Liverpool wants to extend his contract and even when they will release Alexander-Arnold then they can get some extra money in the sale and not lose the player for nothing.
His contract ends in the middle of next year if he does not immediately make an effort to agree to contract extension and do the same with several other players then it is certain that Liverpool will lose players who have high loyalty to the team, I don't know what is in the mind of the coach and the team management.

I think Napoli want to get rid of him. I think they will allow him to be transferred to a team that will pay a slightly higher transfer fee. Premier League teams can pay a high transfer fee for Osimhen. Similarly, Paris Saint-Germain can make such a payment. The Napoli are aware of these and I think they will set a price accordingly.

It is really sad to hear that Liverpool is still not rushing to sign a contract extension with Salah. Sad

As far as I know he would really like to stay longer. I remember one of his statements regarding the same thing as well. But there is still no progress...

I'm curious about what they are waiting for too. Huh

Do they believe they can bring someone in who can make such an impact in a short time? Salah is 32 okay but the way he plays is like he is still showing performances from his much younger times.

I would never like to lose a player like that no matter how old he is. If they don't then probably we will see Salah starting to play for a Saudi team as of next summer. It would be disappointing...
