Why did Chelsea sell Kovacic to their rival?

I was also surprised with this news honestly. Let's say Kovacic didn't have much playing time there then it would have made sense. However there was no such situation either. He has been a regular in Chelsea starting lineup for years. I would have said that it was maybe due to his performance. But it was a horrible season for Chelsea so everyone was inadequate in performance.

At least they shouldn't have sold him to a rival team in the same league. Manchester City have newly lost Gundogan and it didn't even take them a long time to fill his place. They have filled the place with a really solid midfielder like Kovacic. I don't know what Boehly is really planning to do with this.

Kovacic truly an unsung hero, such a magnificent midfield player. He did well at Chelsea, and his departure from the club will be deeply felt. It is indeed a mistake to let go of such a talented player. Kovacic's departure from Chelsea is undoubtedly a loss, but Chelsea fans can remain optimistic about the club's future. However, Chelsea fans can hope all will be fine. Boehly might have plans in place to build younger generation of players.
Kovacic's move to Man City definitely a perfect signing for them. After losing Gundogan, Kovacic can fill his position. Kovacic is undoubtedly a good player, but, Gundogan may possess a slight edge in terms of overall performance.

This summer will be another chance for Manchester United to get Harry Kane but from latest rumor, they likely lose Harry Kane to Bayern Munich.

Did Manchester United change their minds and no longer want to sign with a nearly 30-yr old striker like Harry Kane with too high transfer cost?

Harry Kane 'AGREES Bayern Munich move' after bid

If I am not missing any news, Kane told many times that he wants to continue his career in Premier League to break the record of the league which is held by Alan Shearer. It is big regret for Premier League if no rich club there can keep Kane in the league.

Premier League all time records. Kane can break Shearer's record if he plays in Premier League like 3 or 4 more seasons.

Quote

1. Alan Shearer - 260
2. Harry Kane - 213
3. Wayne Rooney - 208
4. Andrew Cole - 187
5. Sergio Agüero - 184
6. Frank Lampard - 177
7. Thierry Henry - 175
8. Robbie Fowler - 163
9. Jermain Defoe - 162
10. Michael Owen - 150

I think it is good to have fresh threads about big European leagues. Because indeed such threads related to those leagues have turned into mega threads and people have to post there when they want to discuss a topic related to the leagues. I also know those two alternative EPL subjects @Despairo mentioned but they aren't the same with this one technically.

One of them is a pool thread on which only pool participants are allowed to make posts. The other one is a self-moderated thread and not everyone is keen on posting on such threads as far as I can see.

Yes, I know,
I don't know why they still post on the mega thread where there is a hitch and rules.
This is a good time to move on, all the Europa League 2022/2023 session is over. Better to create the new thread as the new session 2023/2024.

I'm even more interested in reading a new thread, I admit I'm bored reading old threads with hundred and thousand pages.

I don't know what I can sell there if endorsing the signature.

Won't this be a clash of two different threads because I'm both discussing the Premier League?

No, this is fresh and not as mega thread.
I don't know if any manager allows you to post on previous premier league threads where that have a thousand pages.

I just want to make the accommodation and a different thread, but if you guys are comfortable to post on the mega thread, leave this thread quiet, I also don't have interest whatsoever

The previous Premier League discussion thread is also still active, and @Trofo just hasn't changed the title to the 2023/24 season because the league ~~hasn't started yet~~. Now it has been updated

Why you're only complain in this thread when there are two active thread discuss about Premier League too?

1. Sportsbet.io's English Premier League Football Pool Discussion Thread
2. ⚽ English Premier League Season: 2022/2023

After all there are many duplicate thread in gambling boards, but when it's talk about sports, usually the thread wouldn't get locked and each of them is active. You can use report to moderator too and let's see what's the decision from moderator.

^^ Thanks for the correction, I mean default Premier League 2023/2024, and I just change the image to a new one.

Look like Manchester City still being favorite in the 2023/2024 session.

@blue Snow did the image just exclude Manchester Clubs? I’m surprised because I thought that they would be included in the promotions.

I think the image is only focused on the summer series. I don't know if that is OP's intention since the title is not specific.

There will be six teams competing for this mini tournament and both Manchester clubs are not part of it.

Quote

From July 22-30, 2023, six clubs will compete in the first-ever Premier League Summer Series.

Five East Coast States will play host to nine matches, as Aston Villa, Brentford, Brighton & Hove Albion, Chelsea, Fulham and Newcastle United head Stateside.

Does anyone know a crypto bookie that offers line for this? It looks like they haven't caught up to this event yet as I can't find them.

@blue Snow did the image just exclude the Manchester Clubs? I’m surprised because I thought that they would be included in the promotions. Furthermore City will definitely start as the favourites but Arsenal will definitely push them and while I thought that this would be Manchester United’s season but now I feel that the takeover saga is derailing their transfer plan’s and at this rate it might be too late to get Ten Hag desired targets which will definitely have a negative effect for the club as the season continues.
