Folks, losing Mbappé is important. Amazing talent, a star. You know, PSG might find advantage in this. Luis Enrique is a winner. He creates teams involving several people. He accomplished it in Barcelona and can in Paris. Enrique can start afresh when Mbappé is gone. He may call in driven, hungry immigrants. I know they are looking for a Euros star. That might fundamentally alter everything. We may now see group efforts rather than single acts. Championships are earned in such manner.

PSG is entering a new era then. Some ambiguity, but many of possibilities. Enrique has chance to flourish here. You are right. One can gamble on him. He has vision, guts, and knowledge to turn PSG into a formidable force. Just watch.

I'm sure the club and Enrique have prepared something for their squad next season, including targeting the players they want, especially as the team needs. Maybe, if currently PSG is just waiting for the right moment, especially after the Euro and Copa America championships end. Maybe after that, PSG will be more aggressive in bringing in the newcomers they are targeting. It could be that PSG has actually held negotiations and private meetings with several agents or players targeted by PSG itself. What is certain is that Mbappe's departure from PSG requires Enrique to change his strategy slightly. there are many possibilities that he could do, whether Enrique prioritizes the ideal winger to support their center forward. PSG also pays attention to the midfielders and defense line to deepen the depth of their squad. It's possible that Enrique is more careful in taking action, he monitors players who really suit his style and desires. Apart from that, PSG has center forwards, namely Goncalo Ramos and Randal Molo Muani. which means, the step that Enrique will choose is a mature decision. To create a solid, strong and competitive team, maturity is needed in action. This effort was made to ensure that PSG continues to dominate the French League and compete in the Champions League. So, let's just wait and see what Enrique or Paris Saint-Germain will do.

Ligue One is facing a rough patch. The departure of star player Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid
and the constant dominance of Paris Saint-Germain are making it hard to attract fans and create a competitive league.

The situation is genuinely very bad.
If Ligue 1 directors can't solve this ASAP, they might lose their top 5 league status.

While I agree that United doesn't want Greenwood and that would be understandable, I think we should also realize that they can't keep on giving him on loan forever. They either have to recall him and play him, which I do not see how that would work, or they would have to just sell him. If they keep on loaning him out, the end result will be like Lukaku, where they will want to sell him eventually and fail to find anything to buy him.

Greenwood still worths some money and if they can find a way to sell him then it would be fine for them and should be the way to go. I know that we are not talking about making some big leaps here, selling Greenwood shouldn't be that hard, do not ask for a lot and they should be able to do it.

While we are looking for the best alternative during the transfer season, I hope Enrique will not be late. Because as time flies, other players have already started to take their places in the teams. Unless they take action about the players they want, other teams can achieve their goals. They will have a strong rival for Osimhen in Chelsea, but we will see how much they want him. I'm sure they will win the French league. The main target for them is the UCL cup and filling Mbappe's void.

PSG is a club that has been able to dominate Ligue 1 so far although no matter who the coach is, since PSG has become a strong team in Ligue 1 so far there has been no coach who has not succeeded in winning the domestic championship trophy for PSG including Luiz Enrique at the moment, but after continuing to dominate Ligue 1 of course Currently PSG is no longer targeting the Ligue 1 trophy as a reason to retain their coach for more than two seasons, currently the Champions League trophy is the main target that every PSG coach must prioritize and you can see previously how each coach only coached PSG for two seasons although the coach has been able to maintain PSG dominance in Ligue 1 so far, in order to make it easier for the coach to win the Champions League trophy so far, PSG has not hesitated to spend a lot of money to recruit star players, Luis Enrique has actually done a good job at PSG so far and he is able to get the best performance out of his players but one thing we haven't seen in PSG at the moment is MENTALITY...!

Next season will be Luis Enrique last season coaching PSG and we don't yet know whether his contract will be extended by PSG or not, so for now Luis Enrique future at PSG really depends on his success or failure in winning the Champions League in the next season, realizing that the situation is not safe for him, Enrique this time continues to try to recruit new players at this time and reportedly Osimhen and also Kvaratskhelia from Napoli target for him get, apart from that, in order to strengthen their attack line, PSG is currently offering 250 million euros to recruit Lamine Yamal from Barcelona.

Luis Enrique is the person who is expected to be able to make Paris Saint Germain even better, even though several players who have been very important at Paris Saint Germain have left. However, this cannot be an excuse for a coach, because they are expected to be able to do it with the players in the squad, it just remains how the coach can see every potential in the players and can make these players show their best abilities.
I think at the moment they are definitely making a personal approach with some of the players they want to bring in. We don't need to talk about money, because with their current finances they are very capable of paying the players they want. We remember when they had to pay 3 star players at once, that wasn't a problem for them. As for who the players they will bring in is still a question mark, because the names of several players that have surfaced at the moment are still just rumors.

Mason Greenwood left Manchester United for a loan move to Spanish club Getafe last season after he was cleared of the rape case that was brought against him by his girlfriend and despite not playing professional football for months before he joined Getafe, it didn't stop Greenwood from having a great season with the Spanish club. I was expecting Getafe to sign him on permanent basis but surprisingly, he was allowed to return to Manchester United.
Marseille was reported to be closing a 26 million pounds deal to sign the England international on permanent basis but reports have that the deal have been put on hold after the Marseille mayor got involved. There's a report that the mayor opposes the signing of Greenwood to the club which means that Greenwood potential move to the French club might not materialize again.

If PSG works at the field level and if they find talented players and sign them at a low price and bring those players to the club and turn them into good skill players and sell them at a high price, then the club will gain as well as the club will be strong enough. We don't see much of that with PSG. PSG lags far behind other clubs, including Real Madrid, where 16, 15 and 17-year-old footballers are highly valued. 

PSG buys players with huge sums of money and after a few days they see players who are not performing as expected and are forced to sell those players at very low prices or let them go for free. As these things bring financial loss for the club on the one hand, on the other hand, the performance of the club does not move forward because of these things. Since PSG got a quality manager, they must think about these things.

Basically Mason Greenwood is still young, and it seems natural that Greenwood did not get a place in Manchester United's main squad. And thus,loaning Greenwood to Getafe is a good way of course to make Greenwood get more minutes to play. But it seems, as long as Erik ten Hag is still the manager of Manchester United, then it looks like Greenwood still has no chance of getting more minutes to play.

Therefore, accepting offers from other teams will certainly be the right choice for Greenwood, because he is still young and has good potential too, then ofcourse Greenwood deserves to get more minutes to play. But yes,  it looks like there will still be competition in this transfer window, although Marseille may be the leading team to get Greenwood, but it looks like there are still other teams who are also still trying to get Greenwood and the team is Lazio.

This is a certainty in football that players will not always remain playing with that team, although some players are loyal to their team in the end they will be separated because of age and they will stop being football players. Clubs must also be aware of this kind of thing, not to mention that a team must regenerate as said. Being prepared to lose a player is something that must be present at all times for a club.

Management is someone who will control where the team will move, therefore it must be filled by very professional people. Because the fact that is happening now is that management is actually one of the reasons the team is moving backwards because they can't manage it very well. This should also be a note because they manage everything within the team, including finances. How many teams end up having to experience problems because they fail to manage finances.

Marseille, which next season will be handled by a smart coach who previously coached Brighton, is currently starting to gather young talent from clubs that play in the English league, De Zerbi is very aggressive in recruiting forward players who next season are expected to make Marseille able to compete for a one ticket the champions league as a realistic target for clubs in ligue 1 (because the championship trophy will likely still belong to PSG), greenwood is one of the transfer targets they are continuing to try to realize at the moment even though they still have Aubameyang on the front lines, apart from marseille who has currently offered 30 million pounds to Manchester United, Lazio is also reportedly still eager to recruit Greenwood to face the competition next season.


The situation faced by Manchester United is not easy to deal with the Greenwood problem, Manchester United reportedly still want to retain their talented young player, but the effects of the previous case that befell Greenwood will most likely make the club condition unstable in the next season If Greenwood is retained, because here are still many Manchester United fans who refused Greenwood is at Manchester United at this time even though he was declared not guilty in the case.

Actually, Greenwood is one of the players who has a bright future, especially after he was able to perform quite well when he was first promoted to the first team, last season we could see how he performed quite well with Getafe so it seems that Marseille are very interested in bringing him in next season, Ligue 1 is not a very competitive league so I think greenwood will be very easy to adapt to later.

After De Zerbi handled Marseille he starting to look for potential player for this team and he want Greenwood because De Zerbi feel Greenwood can in form again after loaned to Getafe this season and actually Marseille has a plan want to buy Greenwood permanently not want to loan him from Manchester United especially Manchester United also still required huge funds to gets the players so they will be more likely want to sell Greenwood rather than to loan him and the current situation of this transfer is actually between Marseille and Manchester United have reached an agreement on the transfer price for Greenwood that Marseille will buy Greenwood for 30 million as transfer fees

But after Mayor of Marseille Benoit Payan make some of controversial statement about this transfer that he doesn't want Greenwood be a part of Marseille then some of fans has starting to refuse this transfer so there is possibility this transfer will not going to happend because of the things i mentioned above but indeed Greenwood agent still under discussing with Marseille representative to find the best ways of this transfer but Marseille is not alone because reported Lazio also interested want to buy Greenwood

Greenwood is a good player and he had a good performance in the last season while he had to leave Manchester United and play for another team on loan but since he was under investigation in England he prefers to avoid playing there and that's why I think this player is linked to Marseille to play there in the next season on loan. However, Marseille won't be a good destination for him because Marseille is not a strong team and he can choose much better teams than Marseille. Maybe after this season when he plays in the other teams on loan, he will return to the better teams again.

Still no one doubts it. I don't think I hate because his mistake is 1 time unfair. He is a young player who still has potential. I think Man United loaned him out because indeed their regulations are like that. If the problem is solved, it should also end. So giving the opportunity to play is a good thing. He has given proof in the getafe, he deserves to play even better. Marseille's offer is the biggest and probably no one dares to go bigger than that. I think Man United will release him.

Greenwood is one big player that need to play for a bigger club as a full time player not as a player Manchester United are using to confuse themselves by loaning him every season and it pains me to see how they still treat him by loaning him and after seeing how good and better he has become they can't still give him another chance to come back to the club as a player. UTD and pride, that's what is stopping them from progressing, is best to terminate Greenwood's contract let the young man be free from all these crazy loans, I believe he wants to play for UTD but they think he's not good for them.
Greenwood did well in Spain for Getafe and going to Marseille is really not too cool IMO, not that he won't do well but starting all over again is not really healthy for a young man as Greenwood, he needs to be back to where he's familiar with, like England or the Spanish side he went to last season, for now the deal is not yet completed let's see how it turns out.

This season has been a challenging season for Luis Enrique in managing PSG, after one of his top players chose to move to Real Madrid, now he has to look for a reliable replacement on the front lines. Mbappe has been PSG mainstay in breaking into opponents' goals, now he is no longer with the team coached by Luis Enrique. There is no other choice for PSG other than looking for a replacement to fill the void in the front line, several players are starting to be linked with PSG, including one of the Euro stars who succeeded in bringing Spain to the final. Luis Enrique must be able to keep PSG from being a team that always dominates Ligue 1 and improve their quality in the Champions League, Currently, the UCL trophy has not been achieved even though a lot of money has been spent recruiting classy players. It is hoped that Enrique presence will be able to make it happen.

Didn't Manchester United previously plan to sell him permanently? could it be that Greenwood's negotiations with the Italian team have failed? If that's the case, it's possible that Manchester United will have no other plans other than a loan for Greenwood to happen again. I think Marseille made the right move by securing Greenwood's services for a season because this player is really good.

But it seems that Marseille is also constrained by quite large costs according to Manchester United's request and therefore they tried it first on loan. If possible and have fresh funds next season, it is possible that Marseille will make him permanent. We know that Marseille spent big this summer and at least 2 to 3 new players have joined.

The facts you say are very real and can also be an example or reference for other players so that there is no surprise when something like that happens again to another player at a club. Apart from that, there is always regeneration at every club, especially a club like Barcelona which has an academy to hone the talents of young people so they can have the talent to play in more prestigious events. Likewise with Mbappe who went from PSG to Real Madrid, who generally had a special reason apart from still being quite thirsty for the Champions League trophy and other trophies.

Mason Greenwood was brilliant for Getefe last season, it felt like he never left football after all these past few months behind bars. I think he was also player of the season last season for that club as he contributed to the club, they actually wanted him to stay longer but Manchester United wasn't impressed with the offers made to sign him.

He'll be leaving for Marseille shortly and it's no longer a loan deal, he'll be sold off completely. A minor setback came up about the young player after the Mayor made some comments about the young lad but Marseille are still pressing hard to make sure that they get the player they want hundred percent.
He needs to get back to good shape, he could be able to play the next Fifa World Cup Competition if he is able to find himself inna consistent club that backs him.

Per Emerick Aubameyang did well for Marseille last season, are you saying you don't have no idea about what he did in the UEFA European Europa League Competition.
