Who has the higher market value? Phil Foden or Jude Bellingham?

Sometimes is not because they don't want to sell the player, it's because the player might be an assets to them and it's an opportunity to make a ton of money if demand comes from other clubs. For instance, take a look at Haaland, Kevin De Bruyne, Osimhen, and Bellingham, these players are expensive because of their contributions to their individual teams. Haaland is now the highest goal scorer in the Premier League and one of the best in the Champions League, any team that want to have him will have to cough our money.

Though, these days, players are now over hype and inflated with prices. These days, we don't have players that are that skilled like we do have during the days of Ronaldinho, Kaka, Zidane and many of them and yet their price tags weren't this expensive but today what we have are just goal scorers and tapping that make their usual contributions and get endorsed for performance, we really need to do better with these prices.

Newcastle still needs to improve the squad instead of letting some of its best players leave at the end of the season. Alexander Isak is one of the important players in Newcastle's squad this season, so they need to keep him instead of selling him. It is true that it is difficult for Newcastle players to hope for a title, but it is not impossible for this team to follow in the footsteps of Manchester City because of its good financial strength.

This season Newcastle's performance is very different compared to last season, even though they have improved their squad. Of course player injuries have had a significant impact on the team's performance, but that should not be the main reason why they have dropped so much so far.

Everton Midfielder Amadou Onana is actually being pursued by a lot of clubs. He is young, at 22 years of age he is creating a lot of buzz. West Ham United, Manchester United, Bayern Munich, and Chelsea are interested in him as far as I know.

At first, I thought people were talking about Ten Hag's Onana the goalkeeper, but then I double checked and it was not about the goalkeeper lol
I am actually a little surprised to see clubs being interested in a defensive midfielder. Because unless the player is really good, teams are not interested in a defensive midfielder nowadays. Because it doesn't go with the fast pace of the football nowadays. I guess the player is really good to be pursued by so many clubs at one time. He has to be, right?

His slick performances with Palmeiras and also the Brazilian U20 national team certainly attracted many big teams to be able to sign him, many say that Luis Guilherme is one of the talented young players who might shine in the future, and that's why Palmeiras now tie him down with a release clause that is high enough for any club that wants to sign him,  Seeing him in several videos about his expertise in playing in the midfielder and right wing positions is certainly quite natural if Dortmund, Liverpool, Manchester United, Chelsea and also Bayern Munich want to sign him next summer.

I think it doesn't matter what price Palmeiras is currently at for Luis Guilherme's interested team, because so far we cannot rule out the talent of Brazilian players born from the Palmeiras academy, I see if Luis Guilherme will have many opportunities to develop to be even better in the future, because after all he only needs the opportunity to play and compete with great players  to hone his talents and abilities,  In my personal opinion, in terms of player attraction, of course the Premier League will be the main destination for young players Including for luis Guilherme and of course liverpool will be the club that is most suitable  to luis Guilherme for develop in future.

I agree with you, this is something that I think is unhealthy, because they tend to force players to buy at a higher price than their market price. I understand they do it because they have money, but this is too much. and now it's not just 1 or 2 teams that will set very high prices if they realize their players are in demand by many teams.

Actually, I don't have a problem with that, but the team itself should be aware of what steps they are going to take. Because with trends like this, the market will be very difficult for teams who do not have good financial conditions to enter. Even now, not only players who already have experience, but young players who have just emerged, they will get very high selling prices.

From what I see, they (a team) will do everything they can if they want a player, even if it is at an unreasonable price because the team charges very high prices. But again, this is based on our own opinions and maybe there will be people who have different opinions.

This happened because they were facing a storm of injuries to the core squad and even if it wasn't wrong they had lost almost 8 core players to injury at that time thus affecting the team's performance. Alexander Isak has had some good moments this season and he has been one of Newcastle's goal machines. Many clubs are starting to see his abilities, especially since he is still young enough to develop a career at a club that has far more potential to win titles because staying at Newcastle doesn't necessarily mean he can become champions.

His desire to stay until his contract ends there is still a chance for other clubs who are interested in signing him because even though he says so. If the club intends to sell because they need some additional players that will be another matter and maybe he will get a place as one of the players to be sold.

When one succeeds he gets the praises because he’s doing what he’s hired for and when he fails he gets the criticisms because he’s not making the fans and board happy. A club performing poorly could lose quite a lot in terms of investments and partnerships. This season Juventus were under fire at a point this season and that caused a lot of criticisms, the team and one big characteristics of a good manager is changing the face of the team when it’s in her dying stage and that was what Allegri did and many started seeing them as one team that could pose a threat to Inter Milan.

 Well the party is over already and now Juventus have had some poor results which wasn’t expected though but they’re a football team and football is a game. I think the fans should take it easy as they don’t expect to have great results match in and out as this same Allegri have also won for them the Scudetto and they should know that the league is quite competitive and other teams also want to shine. Spaletti is said to be one of the huge favorites to replace Allegri and I think that’s not a great option right now though except he’s mentally ready.

 Spaletti together with Osimhen was responsible for handing Napoli to her major trophy in over 30 years of waiting. Yes he can do same with Juventus but the club also must be ready to spend on the purchase of players. Allegri time at the club is up and I think what he can try to do is to help the club finish 2nd and I think he would get the applauds but will still leave. Juventus should be wary of rushing to get a replacement else they might be forced to search for Allegri again when the need arises.

Luis Guilherme is a young player who I have continuously heard lately in several news reports that this young player is being linked with several big clubs and in my opinion it is very feasible because Luis Guilherme, although he has not shown his best skills, the talent he has is clearly visible at several big clubs. believes that these young players will be a big investment in the future, this is why any big club will be able to spend large amounts of money on young players like Luis Guilherme.
I was thinking, isn't it too early if one of the popular clubs like Liverpool or other big clubs takes the risk of bringing in these young players who don't have any guarantees yet.
But I am very sure that if there is a big possibility that Dortmund can get Luis Guilherme, he will definitely be a very reliable player and have a very high price.

This is definitely the biggest "what if" in football. you know he had the potential to be the best, only because of injuries he was even unable to unlock his full potential. He left Barcelona to get out of the shadow of Lionel Messi, and in PSG he had to live under the shadow of Mbappe. He is definitely the Player who had the potential to be even better than both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, but in the end he was nowhere near that.

Maybe if he did play for a big club for longer period of time there is a chance he could have actually achieved something more. but it is actually hard to think he would actually have been successful.

Anyway I personally that his career is going to have a little more longevity at least compared to Cristiano Ronaldo. but in the end his career was actually short lived compared to both of them. now the only thing left for him is probably to get back to Brazil and maybe have some respect from his people.

Alexander Isak is a well-known footballer for those who play FM.😅 He was one of the great wonderkids in FM 2017. He was an athletic, fast and young footballer. Now he has also managed to become a good goalscorer. The €130 million that was talked about for his transfer fee seemed a lot to me too, but Newcastle United signed him for €70 million if I remember correctly. Alexander Isak is a footballer with high potential. In the right team and system he can do much better things.

Indeed Newcastle United's performance not quit well and drop to 8th standings position but difference with their striker Alexander Isak had impressive performance in this season after scoring 15 goals of 22 matches in Premier League. Its very good statistic and I think many teams interested for sign him on the next season, but Alexander Isaak keep loyal with Newcastle United and won't to play with other team until his contract expiry.

Newcastle United has opportunity without participants in European competition if failed to reach to six position standings, questionable for Alexander Isaak will stay with Newcastle United next season without playing in Champion League and Europe League or acceptable the interested team has chance for playing in champion league.

And keep in mind that his statistic isn't outrageously good. He has scored 15 goals and out of those 15, 4 goals were scored by penalties. I would never put that guy at any three figure value, never.

As you said, top players like Leao or Musiala are worth that money, but not Isak. I am not sure about Osimhen at the moment as he isn't quite able to repeat what he has done last season. But I think these price tags suggest that a player should be able to maintain top form over the course of several subsequent seasons. It isn't enough to score a high number of goals one season and then play subpar the next season. Osimhen is at 11 goals for the season so far. That's not enough for a world class center forward. Leao is a different type of player. He is not mainly responsible for scoring goals. His main task is to assist and confuse the opponents's defense with his speed and technique.

Musiala is an amazing player with his impressive body weight balance. I never understand how he is doing many of his movements. It looks as if he was supposed to crash on the floor, but yet again stays up and makes some unexpected move.

Look at their midfield, they have camavinga, tchouameni, jude, valverde and maybe some other players that I am missing at midfield and all of them are young players. This doesn't mean that Modric is a bad player, he is still a great player but Real do not really "need" him. That means Modric needs to start looking for somewhere he can go to this summer, otherwise things will not be great for them.

I personally believe that the best thing to do in this case would be going to Saudi league if he can get a lot of money. He is old, he won't make a big impact on any other team, and he could make more money there in 2 seasons than he did all of his life. So, it looks like Saudi league would be the best place to go for Modric.

I understand your all logic about this but here also have to understand one thing more as maybe Newcastle United don't want to sell their player so just because of this they are having price tag like this on Isak which is doing impressive performance for them as most chances we will have some improvement in coming season as well because things are going to take good changes in coming season for them after having terrible season due to injuries and suspension of players.

Chelsea already have the good number of quality players, so I have feeling they don't need to invest in coming season they just need to have some depth into their team which is more important for them instead of having any new player now we will have too much news about few players in coming days as we are heading for the end of this season.

Isak will not leave from the club. The recent update from romano about him breaks all of rumors. Isaak has confirmed that he is feeling very happy to play in Newcastle. He will not go to another club. He was in newcaslte for a big project by PIF. I think that it's all about rumors.

I don't really believe that price was true. It's caused by it can still be negotiated but since isaak has confirmed himself to stay and no reason to talk about him even further.

Correct, Isak is nothing without Guimaraes and Trippier, most of his goals are just tap-in. His market value is 74 Million Euros, which I think overvalued, his market value should be around 40-50 Million Euros. Asking 130 Million Euros is way too much, it's better to spend that money to sign Leao, Osimhen, Musiala etc.

Just because Isak has a good statistic, it doesn't mean he's a top player.

Amazing!!!! that's the only word that i can give it to the simeone inzaghi.

His achievements have been helping intermilan to perform better by winning so many trophies. I'd like to add that if simeone was also helping intermilan financiall by giving the club a very big income. As reported by football italy

https://football-italia.net/inzaghi-brings-over-revenue-inter/
Inzaghi adds intermilan to the positive trend. The club is now frequently winning trophies, and it is gradually resolving financial issues caused by Intermilan's large income since Diego Simeone joined the club has been helping the club a lot in adding more budgets for the various things. No doubt, interimlan intends to extend his contract even further.
The deal will be made by Simeone and Intermilan in the coming months but i don't know when since the article was not mentioning about the deadline for the deal between simeone inzaghi  and management. It most likely before the end of the summer transfer season. If Intermilan continues to perform well, it may be able to resolve its financial issues encountered by interimlan since it was having bad management. Glad to see that the management was able finding someone who was helping the club a lot to get money. 

I think that intermilan's debt can be fully paid off probably at the end of this decade if simeone inzaghi is gonna be a long term coach for intermilan. 

Most times, club only set high release clause or fee on players if they don’t actually wants to leave the players at that moment of their contract, mostly, these players are either very important to the squad and there is a demand from other teams, they set huge money so that any team that can pay that high will just take the player; on the other hand, if they buy the player with huge amount of money, and the player start having issues with the management, and if they sell him at that moment, they will sell him at lost, they tends to set release clause on the player so that any team that will sign the player will pay the team that money so as not be like they lost money on the player.

Yes, I think the price is too high. Maybe if Newcastle wants to let him go, negotiations might result in a fairly large price reduction from Newcastle's asking price.
It's not just Tottenham who are rumored to be interested in Isak. Arsenal are reportedly also interested in getting the player's signature.
