This transfer move  shouldn’t automatically mean they’re not looking to the future of the team. And they’re not losing their young talents only cause of his departure, they’re letting him go. There’s a difference.
He’s a talented player and that’s why Newcastle had an interest in having him. He wouldn’t get the playing time he would have loved at Manchester city as there are other experienced players in the squad that are more likely to be picked for a game.  

Hopefully, the move to Newcastle would give him the playing time he hopes to get. He’s still young and has his career ahead of him.

In the past, there were rumors that he would return to Bayern Munich after the German club experienced a central defender crisis, but now Jerome Boateng has instead joined the Italian club, Salernitana. I am happy to see that Jerome Boateng can play again as a professional footballer because he was not on the field for quite a long time after not receiving an offer from any European club. His status is a free agent and this is a free signing for Salernitana and I think at least he can help Salernitana who are currently experiencing poor performance in Serie A.

His experience will be very useful and even though he is 35 years old, at least he is quite reliable. Maybe this is not a good signing, but considering that Salernitana's finances are not that good, they can only rely on players who are free agents like Jerome Boateng. Congratulations to Jerome Boateng and in his prime he was a very good defender for Bayern Munich and the German national team.

Hahaha Xavi has changed all the expectations of the Barcelona management team and all Barcelona fans and it seems like he has experienced various pressures.
All because in declining conditions like this, Barcelona management is definitely putting pressure on him to produce good results.
It just that it still too early to blame Xavi for not being able to bring Barcelona into change because there is chance that Barcelona can have one of the top rankings even though they are not winners of the title.

We all know how the Barcelona team management puts pressure on the coach if the team cannot get satisfactory results, but this is normal thing and happens quite often to other team.
I just hope that in the future, if Xavi is replaced, he can become truly appropriate coach and can bring about change.

Yeah, for some seasons now Marcus Rashford has been very inconsistent just as you've stated that's how his form has been for quite some seasons now but notwithstanding his performance I think he isn't comfortable being in Manchester united again because he doesn't give in his best in matches as he usually does before so when a player that have been very up and doing for his team begins to show some kind of backwardness in matches rather than improve his performance just know the player is becoming tired with the club.

Marcus Rashford is just 26 years old and has a promising future in his football career so if PSG is interested in him and sign him to their squad I believe he would make a difference there because if not for his inconsistency in Manchester united, Rashford is one of the players that have the interest of his team at heart and always try his possible best for his team but regardless of the rumours suggesting that Rashford may move to PSG I don't see the player leaving Manchester united anytime soon because I just feel he's having a bad time now and needs some more time to bounce back to his good old days at Manchester United so hopefully, he's still gonna stay at united.

Is Xavi leaving because of bad results or is it that he's not enjoying managing at all. The management are putting pressure on him and are unhappy with the performances even when he's winning matches. Which isn't a good sign. I think he even mentioned in an interview that it's going to be an unpleasant experience for anyone who's seeking a job to manage Barcelona and the next manager should be ready for that.

I don't really understand whether young player Lucas Bergvall has good talent but for me young players always have better performance and it all depends on how the club can develop these players to become players who have reliable talent.
Barcelona should not need to be disappointed with this rejection because as a young player he will definitely choose the right club to be able to provide a great career in the future but it seems not only that but Lucas Bergvall will think about the future of his salary because Barcelona is actually also the right club because Xavi could be a reliable coach to develop Lucas Bergvall talent but unfortunately financial shortages affect a player's confidence.

Lots of people say that joining Tottenham is the right choice for a young player, but I'm a little disappointed to see a young player reject an offer from a popular club like Barcelona even though any young player wants to be part of a popular club but I don't know what the goal is. Lucas Bergvall is certain that this is not just about career.

Osimhen to my club, that will be incredible and blast but he is not among the top 20 goal scorer but over all, I'm impress with his performance in the Afcon, he is young but the way he dedicated his power in the Afcon shows he is good and Nigeria will be playing their Quarter Finals today which I'm optimistic to come great for Super Eagles. However, his Performance in Napoli has decline maybe this was due to what has happened as a result of the racism.

If Osimhen will be making moves, I don't want to see him in Arsenal unless they are ready to let's go of either Jesus or Nketkiah, there is going to be a conflict of interest between these three guys and I fear Osimhen might be bench for these two guys.


Osimhen has cleared this during his interview with Fabrizio, he said he has just signed a new contract with Napoli but it doesn't mean that he can't move to another club but he is going to finish this season and now that the transfer market has close, till June before we are going to see if he will be going to any Premier League or not at all but I personally don't want to see him in Arsenal because of the situation of the team.

The problem is that the possibility of them gambling again next season is very likely to happen.
Losing Xavi is a certainty now and we still don't know who his replacement will be for next season and they will surely lose Cancelo and Joao Felix due to expiring contracts.

It's going to take a lot of thinking because with the way things are going for Barcelona, they're going to have to try and find the right alternatives to make their performance next season better than it is today.
Of course, the most important thing of all at the moment is to manage and solve their financial problems and FFB restrictions as much as possible because after all this is something very important for Barcelona in order to change the club for the better.
If in the end it is possible that there are other victims who must be released too I don't think it's too much of a problem because Barcelona's players actually for the midfield are quite piled up but Xavi is always reluctant to release them and would rather bother with salary problems than release players.

The amounts of money spent during the winter transfer season has been dropping drastically compared to the summer transfer season. It seems like that many clubs are still feeling confidence with their squads and they don't need to buy the new players.

The latest report from https://www.90min.com/posts/premier-league-spending-drops-drastically-compared-january-2023-window


Im also having other opinion if many clubs were aware if there will be so many great players to leave from their club in the upcoming summer transfer season. So, they are trying to save their money to recruit competence players in the summer transfer season instead of spend a lot of money at the middle of season.
Some clubs like chelsea and arsenal became less active in winter transfer season. I was only seeing broja being loaned to the fulham and it was also happening in the last minutes.

I hope there will be so many surprises to come in the summer transfer season. There will be so many rumors to be answered like the future of mbappe.
Mbappe had been heavlily linked to the real madrid and we will know what's gonna be his answer in the future. Mbappe has been known as one of best player in this decade. Some players linked to the saudi transfers and we will get the answer in the summer trnasfer season that will come around mid year.

I can't even wait to see where the hell mbappe will be going on. This guy is full with gimmick and i hope he will find the new club asap since he has no intention to extend his contract in PSG.

Barcelona's financial issues won't let them to even choose a good coach and since Xavi is going to leave Barcelona because of the bad performance he had in this team, they are about to hire another coach and it seems this time Barcelona wants to hire coaches from the Saudi League. Marcelo Gallardo is currently linked to Barcelona to work in this team, he was working in Atlético River Plate before and now Gallardo is working on Al Ittihad. Barcelona wanted to even hire this coach in the last season.

Really? I still don't believe this news because in the last few days Lucas Bergvall has been very close to Barcelona and I think Barcelona fans will be very disappointed to hear this news. However, after I read the latest tweet from Fabrizio Romano, it is true that Lucas Bergvall chose Spurs over Barcelona. Lucas Bergvall changed his mind at the last second and I think this is the right decision for a young player who prioritizes playing minutes rather than joining a big team where it is not clear that he will get the playing minutes he deserves.

Maybe Barcelona should be more sincere because the players they are targeting are joining other teams and I think there is still time in the summer to attract other young talents. Spurs are very lucky to be able to get the services of this 18 year old player and he plays as a midfielder. I saw his skills in the video footage and indeed he is quite a genius for a player his age and with the competitiveness of the EPL he will be able to further develop his talent.

Nkunku might actually be able to produce a better performance compared to what the other players are giving the club. I highly suggest that they put him in the starting lineup. I believe he has the capability of performing well. And they will not know what he is capable of if they do not give him a good chance. Maybe play him in the starting lineup for a few weeks. And if he performs well keep playing him on the starting lineup and maybe if he gets tired substitute him. But if he does not produce the performance that they are looking for, they can obviously go for the players that they are already playing

I think Manchester City is thinking that they have a lot of money and they can actually buy players if they want. But they have to be careful because nobody knows when the money is going to run out. I will also say the same thing it definitely looks like Manchester City is not taking care of their future.

Maybe they also think that they do not need to actually keep him in the squad and maybe they have better options compared to him. But I think that's also a coping mechanism because he was a very good player. I think they could have kept him. That would have made more sense.

I think he wants to have more experience and try to feel the atmosphere when playing for a different team. He's a young player with potential, so I think his decision to move was the right one. Especially at Manchester City he didn't get many minutes to play. Every young player will want to get a lot of minutes to play, especially if he manages to become the main squad and that is open if he is at Newcastle. as we see the competition at Manchester City is very tight, he will be very difficult to penetrate the main squad. And when he is at Newcastle I hope he can get what he wants.

Well, it's not that strange because even though Barcelona is a big club, there are other priorities to think about when it comes to the future of a young player's career because after all, apart from money, there is a condition where young players also need guarantees in this regard.

Barcelona's financial problems are still very complex and will be very difficult to solve so in this case it will definitely be a problem especially for young players if they do not have certain conditions at the club.
In addition, the competition at Tottenham will be a little easier when compared to Barcelona because after all we can know that until now Barcelona is a big club to be in the senior dquad rather than having to let themselves be in limbo in the academy.
He's still young enough that even if Tottenham's club performance isn't the best, the decision to be at Totte ham rather than Barcelona could be the right one.

Like you, I support Erik Ten Hag. Manchester United needs a stable leader, and I think Ten Hag is the appropriate guy. I hope his ideas will pay off eventually, despite critics' criticisms of his style or player management. Team togetherness and his vision for the club's future are exactly what we need.

The Mourinho parallel amuses me. Mourinho enjoyed his successes with United, but looking back isnt helpful. You stated the team's form comeback; we should focus on that. Im optimistic as the players get fit. Long-term thinking and patience are crucial.

It seems Manchester City is not taking care of the future of the team and they easily lose their young talent, Alfie Harrison.
Alfie Harrison is an 18-year-old player who played and had a good performance and many people were even comparing him with Haalnd because of the performance he had in Manchester City.
But this player left Manchester City and he is going to play for Newcastle after signing his contract for 3.5 million pounds.

Arsenal as well? I'm hearing about it for the first time now. If Arsenal transfer him he would be used as not only a left winger but also a centre-forward I assume. But I don't know about whether the Red Devils would like to send him to a rival team in the same league.     I assume they wouldn't think of doing that.

Mbappe's decision is still not certain. PSG are waiting for his final decision to be made this summer. If he stays at the team then I'm curious about whether they would still go for Rashford as well. But if Mbappe leaves Rashford could really be one of the serious candidates.

Am very interested in the signing of Osimhen to Arsenal as in the news. He has really shown class in the AFCON for the Super Eagles and as such has proven beyond any doubts that he's a top class and very valuable player for Napoli.
With the renewal of his contract at Napoli, we could see him being signed up on the release clause of almost £119m  and am very sure Chelsea FC, Real Madrid or PSG would struggle to grab him from the bid made by the Arsenal management.
I for one want him at Arsenal and he would do very much good with the inclusion of J.Gabriel, Saka, Odegaard, Nketiah in the team.

Not only that, joining Barcelona won't give him a chance to get better salary because Barcelona is a poor team.

If you think Jackson is useless, how's about Mudryk? what should we call him? 4 goals from 41 matches, has the worst stats among other wingers.

We still can't evaluate how good Nkunku is, he mostly not become a starter and so far only played for 5 matches.
