I'm still trying to understand the reason Liverpool management decided to allow Mohammed Salah, Vigil Van Djik and Trent Alexander-Arnold' contracts to reach the last six months of their durations before they decided to start negotiating a contract extension. These players I mentioned now I think have been the club's best players over the last six years which is why I think they should've gotten a contract offer before now.

I don't know if Mo Salah and Virgil van Djik are in strong negotiations with the club management to extend their contracts at Anfield but I'm very much aware that Real Madrid is very much interested in Trent Alexander-Arnold and might sign him as a free agent in the upcoming summer transfer window

There are still no talks about where Osimhen will go next year. It's clear that Napoli doesn't want him, and it's also clear that Osimhen doesn't want Napoli, so it's clear that we are going to see a move without a doubt. He is currently on loan at Galatasaray, and that's of course a good thing so that he doesn't actually lose any minutes, and he is still playing UEFA level football, a top ten league, so it's a good thing that keeps him warm and all. But to be fair, this dude was talked with PSG and Chelsea all summer long, so I am sure that some big team that needs a striker could get him.

However, there are no rumours, not even any rumours right now, which is a bit shocking if you ask me since I was expecting some big deals would be already in the talks right now for the summer. I mean, at some point I believed some team would even buy him during winter transfer window and that did not happen, no idea what's going on, but he deserves a big shot, I hope he makes a move.

Arne Slot and Liverpool management certainly want to keep their three pillars, they have proven to make a big contribution to Liverpool performance this season. In terms of age, Alexander-Arnold will be the main priority to be maintained for a long time, even though there is great interest from Real Madrid to recruit him next summer. While there is a possibility that Van Dijk and M Salah will also be maintained, but due to age factors, maybe both of them will only get short-term contract extension offers.

Liverpool clearly will not be ready to lose these three players in one transfer window, especially if they have not found the right replacement. In my opinion, if Liverpool succeed in achieving success in various competitions this season, they will have no trouble retaining these three players. The Saudi Pro League team has long been interested in M ​​Salah, the proposals they submit are always difficult for any player to reject.

Right, this rumors is too old. Real Madrid have long wanted to sign William Saliba. Almost from the last summer window, they shortlisted William Saliba in their transfer hub. In almost September, I also posted on this transfer in which Real Madrid sent 85 million bid but Arsenal rejected it.

However, the signing of William Saliba can be a good hand act for Real Madrid because William Saliba is a solid and experienced defender who can make a superior impact in Real Madrid's defense forces. In the current player, all the key defenders are missing due to injuries. Meaning, David Alaba has booked a very long injury flight, and many more defenders have also joined the injury list. Even recently Rodiger has also  joined the injury list. So bringing in William Saliba could be a turning point in the current scenario for Angelotti. So I hope William Saliba will also accept this very joyfully.

Any footballer always dreams of joining Madrid and all quality players admit that Madrid is one of the teams that can give a title when the player's contribution is very good. And now Madrid has tried to make an offer to William Saliba which should make the player even more eager to achieve a more brilliant career. But it all comes back to the goals of each player and if Saliba really wants to only appear in his career without any titles, maybe staying at Arsenal is his best choice. But if he chooses to pursue a career and also a title, he will choose to join Madrid to be a very wise choice and surely his fans will support him very much. Madrid can be one of the guarantees for him to achieve higher achievements.

If Mohammed Salah decides to stay back at Liverpool then it's his choice and for me alone i don't see why any player will choose to move out of a team he is performing well just to move to another team due to the money they will offer to pay him. If a player is not facing any challenge with his teammates or the head coach why moving out of a comfort zone to a new team that will literally take a lot of time before he can adapt to their nature of play which some players can even find it difficult at the initial time. For Virgil Van Dijk, it is certain that the club is going to extend his contract because of his outstanding role as a center back defender.

Footballers can change their minds anything and that's why you don't depend on them because at the end it'll be who's willing to pay more and where their mind wants to go that they'll go to. Maybe Liverpool have offered them a salary that they can refuse and that's why they're renewing and probably other clubs aren't giving them what they want or it's in a league that they're not ready to go to yet. Examples, I don't think it's the right time for any of them to go to the Saudi pro league to play regardless of the salary that they're offering to give them. Both of them still have alot of memories and trophies to achieve in Europe and the English premier league.

This option also seems to be Barcelona's move to borrow Rashford, by joining Hansi Flick's squad, he will be useful as a substitute player or maybe a main starter in certain cases. Unfortunately, Barcelona is constrained by financial problems. Aston Villa borrowed Marcus Rashford, besides Asenssio and Axel Disasi for the needs of his team. Well, it doesn't mean that with Rashford joining he will become a core player in Unay Emery's squad, therefore he must prove his capacity. In the contract between Manchester United and Aston Villa there is an option to buy Rashford for £ 40 million if they are impressed with his loan period. If what happens is as you say, it means that Marcus Rasford consciously let his career be destroyed. Rashford seems to have a problem that disagrees with several previous United coaches, which in the end he tends to not have the spirit to fight and work hard. This attitude is his homework for him to fix, because the problem will be serious if he continues to behave like he did at his previous club. Well, I'm actually interested in Aston Villa right now, Unay Emery has brought in quite a lot of names. some of the names are Donyell Malen, Marcus Rasford and Marco Assensio. I believe if this coach has a plan for his squad, that's why he brought in and loaned some players. but that will actually provide competitive competition within Aston Villa, so the players will work hard to perform much better. by the way, this is just my assumption in the assessment made by Aston Villa.

That’s harsh. In as much as Rashford couldn't do well in Manchester United, it is possible for him to rediscover himself and be able to perform much better for Aston Villa. Rashford is an incredible talent and though he has  declined in form, I believe he can improve if he puts in the work at Aston Villa.

Rashford is there for loan, not for permanent transfer, so Villa could use him for bench, nothing more. If anyone thinks that Rashford will be used as starter and will look to have a better result, you are kidding yourself, you are not going to see that and we will not have that.

The only reason Rashford was loaned out was the fact that he would be a decent bench player, and they are not entirely sold on the whole "he doesn't work" topic, so they wanted to probably watch and see if he is actually as lazy as Amorim says he is. If that is the case, then it's a loan and he will go back, if it is not and he looks great then they could just buy him out if they want to, or even if not then they will just have a working Rashford for a few months that will help him.

Rashford did go to a "better" club in the sense that Villa is at UCL, so it's a good thing for him, but it's also a huge risk. Now he has to show himself, he is kicked out of his own team ,for being lazy, he has to prove everyone wrong, or he is going to prove them right.

Arne Slot have no problem with the players, he worked with the ones that are available and also getting all hope high stationed with stellar performance. The board main jobs is securing solid long-term contracts that will be beneficial for the club's status. Liverpool management are not in a haste to settle confidential contract for their key players. They're the only team in England that work on stern measures towards tabling contracts for their players. They're not convinced with the incredible performance but are more focused on titles.

The Egyptian and Dutchman, Mohammed Salah and Virgil Van Dijk will have their way with Liverpool. They're not going to be free agents this season, rather we might never have a clear view of the Reds management, they're preparing good contract for these players because they've emerged as key players under the project of Arne Slot. The manager will keep them on sights because watching their qualities and contributing features on the pitch, it's quite magnificent.

Salah and Van Dijk may not be young anymore, but they are both crucial players for Liverpool and have made a very significant contribution. So it would be strange if Liverpool did not offer a contract extension for both of them (at least for the next 2 years). Maybe it would be a different story if Liverpool already had a replacement candidate, but as far as I know, there isn't one. It would be a big loss for Liverpool if they lose Van Dijk and Salah as free transfers, and it seems Liverpool will lose Alexander-Arnold who will be out of contract at the end of this season.

Anything about Madrid is just a rumor until they made an official announcement. They would never try to leak the progress between them and Saliba. This pretty much the same like Mbappe's case. They always denied any rumors linked to Mbappe, but he played for them now.

I see no reason to feel anything is so fake for them caused by they are always able in keeping the progress private.

Madrid are reportedly ready to make a very fantastic offer to get Saliba, but I think it is just a rumour that does not have strong reasons for us to believe it, because after all they did not make much movement to recruit Saliba in the transfer market last winter, not even just Saliba, Madrid also lost a lot of their transfer targets due to the lack of activity they did to recruit players such as Alphonso Davies and also Jonathan Tah who finally chose to stay at their respective clubs, besides that Madrid and Ancelotti have issued statements before if they are likely not to recruit new players this season and maybe that is the reason why Madrid are  too passive in the transfer market.

Salah extended his contract with Liverpool, and Van Dijk says that he himself does not know what awaits him in the future. It seems to me that Liverpool would not like to let go of their captain, but now it will depend not only on their desire, perhaps it will depend on the terms of the contract that they offer him.

I think that Van Dijk understands his importance for the team, in addition to being a leader and captain, he is also a fundamental player for Liverpool. In addition, it is not clear what will happen to Alexander-Arnold, whether he will stay or want to go to Real, and this will also weaken the defense.

Glazers bought players for Ten Hag and spent especially a lot in the first season and Ten Hag picked up almost all of these players, including Onana and Zirkize and Antony and then United stopped playing well, defeat after defeat, United stopped qualifying for the Champions League and there was no success in the EPL either and in such a situation the deductions also dropped, because in big tournaments you can make money on games and advertising, but who of the serious sponsors will pay money for advertising to a team ranked 8th in the EPL?
In general, Ten Hag is to blame for spending a lot of money on players, but under his leadership United played even worse than when David Moyes or Mourinho trained United.

This rumour is appears since last month but Real Madrid didn't bid for him until winter transfer window closed and Saliba feel Arsenal as his home so he is comfortable to playing at this team so it's hard for Real Madrid to get him moreover Arteta and Arsenal will attempts to hold him because Saliba is important asset and important player for them but Real Madrid are willing to buy Saliba with expensive price which mean if Arsenal accept their offers then potentially this will became an saga transfer for next summer

Yeah they are rumouring Sesko with Arsenal by intervals. But there is no offer on the table yet. When it comes to joining Arsenal, he should take it and leave on the condition that there is no offer from more successful big teams. In the end, signing for Arsenal is way better than staying at Leipzig in that case.

A short time ago, I came across a source telling that van Dijk and Salah both were preparing to extend with Liverpool. I can't find it now but I don't think it makes sense. At least for Salah. Because he officially stated that he decided to leave the team by the end of the season. But maybe they could offer van Dijk a new contract at least. He is 33 maybe but just like Salah, he is also doing great this season. I believe he is still a crucial part of Liverpool squad. 

Ten Hag did not do it on his own accord, of course he asked permission from the management to be able to recruit the players he wanted and the management allowed it, but the club certainly had high hopes for Ten Hag and clearly Ten Hag was to blame because he recruited players who did not produce anything because the club's performance did not improve and now Amorim has to bear the blame caused by Ten Hag until finally he could not freely recruit players according to his wishes.
For now, United's income comes from the European League and they perform well there if they can survive until the end, it might improve their finances, especially if Man United can get a UCL ticket next season, it will be even better to generate more income.

Not much change and improvement has happened to the current manchester united since the arrival of amorim, but we can't blame him for what happened to the current manchester united after the slump they experienced in the ten hag era, although amorim has shown extraordinary abilities while coaching sporting, but he did not build sporting in a short time and a short process, so indeed they should give him more time to build the current red devils squad from scratch, regarding the recruitment of new strikers, it seems that the management does not want to act rashly in the January transfer because in the last summer they has spent a lot of money, besides the recruitment of osimhen is not done because it requires a lot of money and also a long process not only with Napoli but also with Galatasaray at this time.
