Spalletti is the coach who made Napoli a strong team in Serie A last season. He was able to take advantage of the unstable situation of other teams to win the Scudetto title. Granted his role in leading Napoli to the Scudetto is an amazing thing he has done as he achieved the Scudetto trophy without the great signings they did in the transfer market, but Spalletti was able to do it with a squad that is without a star player in the depths of the team. Spalletti departure from Napoli due to disagreements with the owner meant he had to resign after helping Napoli win the Scudetto last season. Next season Napoli will be coached by Rudi Carcia which will make Napoli have a different playing style from the previous coach. We will see their rivals rise like Inter Milan, Ac Milan and Juventus next season. If the dominating team is able to display a better performance, I think the Napoli era will run aground next season in the hunt for the Scudetto trophy.
Oh, yes, Spalletti's role in the Scudetto for Napoli is, in my opinion, decisive, precisely because he was able to squeeze even more out of the team than it is capable of. I also think that if other giants like Inter, Milan, Juventus were in perfect order, then perhaps we would not have seen the championship of Napoli. On the other hand, it is difficult to attribute those 16 points of advantage over the second place only to the problems of competitors, because Napoli itself was excellent throughout the championship. Also, let's not forget that Napoli and Spalletti were in the lead in the previous season, so it's impossible to write everything off as an accident. |

Is Mbappe interested in moving to Liverpool? Mbappe is a great player no doubt. And he is capable of scoring a lot of goals if he gets enough support from the team players. The Liverpool team is very strong. Nunez and Salah are in Liverpool's attack. But Nunez is not experienced enough. He misses a lot of easy chances. And so Liverpool needs another experienced striker. I have yet to see any rumors that Liverpool want to sign Mbappe. I think Mbappe will join the Madrid squad if he leaves PSG.
Now you have heard these rumors  Liverpool is rumored to have entered the fight for Mbappe and is offering about 300 million for the striker. As far as we know, Paris Saint-Germain also seems to want this amount, and not the 220 million plus 20 million as bonuses that Real Madrid offers. Another question is how Mbappe himself looks at it, and especially his mother. And I'm afraid that if Mbappe does not move to Real Madrid this time, the club will not forgive him, as it did quite recently, and they will become enemies until the end of Mbappe's career. |

It will be a very difficult task for Manchester United to win the Champions League I am not even counting them among those who will succeed in the Champions League; the action they are taking appears to be very slow to me I know they tried during the Premier League, but I expected more from them even in the Premier League, I do not believe Manchester United has a chance to win I believe Manchester United should trim their players to just the way Chelsea is doing now. Why i made this statement is that next season is going to be hot in all directions, they need to keep up to meet up. I see Chelsea making incredible changes to the club.
Manchester United has not been the Champions League favorite for more than a decade, since Alex Ferguson left the post of head coach of the club. And right now, given the confusion and uncertainty with the sale of the club, there is an even greater distance to favoritism. I respect what Ten Hag did when he came to the post of head coach and the club became the favorite for a place in the Champions League, but still you can't call the club a favorite even for the Premier League title, let alone the Champions League. As for arranging a purge in the club, this is quite controversial for me. The club is now playing in the Champions League, unlike Chelsea, which can afford to arrange a global restructuring and a sale of the squad. Therefore, for Manchester United, you need to have some depth in the squad and strengthen along the way. |

True, De Gea has agreed to extend his contract with Manchester United until the end of next season and now the deal is just waiting for Manchester United to sign it. De Gea has lost more than half of his wages by the time this contract extension expires. obviously, this cost him a lot, I don't know what reason made him so sure about extending his contract at the expense of half his salary. If he really wants to stay with Manchester United, he must accept the fact that De Gea is no longer Manchester United's main goalkeeper.
In general, I am very surprised that de Gea is holding on to a place at Manchester United so much. I still understand that if it was a matter of increased wages, but the Ministry of Justice, with its latest proposals with a salary reduction, seems to have removed this advantage. I think de Gea is still a great age for a goalkeeper and he can still find himself a new club from the class of top clubs. Especially after MU suddenly changed his mind and still wants to cut his salary, when de Gea had already agreed to the proposed conditions. Yes, the goalkeeper sometimes makes monstrous mistakes, but at the same time he makes much more fantastic saves. So I want to give just one piece of advice to David. You need to look for a new club. |

Luis Enrique is expected to be announced as the new PSG coach in a short time. Mourinho's name was also among the serious candidates but it looks like they didn't make an offer to him. He was actually open to an offer from PSG as he was looking positive about a move there. But staying at Roma mustn't also be feeling bad for Mourinho as he has been ready to continue working for them. It is difficult to say which one of these coaches would be the best choice for PSG yet. Both of them have really decent careers so I hope Enrique can be really beneficial for PSG especially in the Champions League. Because PSG want a title winner there to manage the team to achieve the same success. There are just differences in game plan but I assume PSG would work this out at the end of the day.
Well, the owners of Paris Saint-Germain probably had their own reasons if they did not invite Jose Mourinho to the post of head coach, or even did not try to do it, if it is really true. I'm not sure if Roma is a better option for Jose himself, but on the other hand, Mourinho at least won't have to start from scratch getting used to the conditions of the new club. Also, maybe the Qatari sheikhs could be offended by Mourinho if he refused them on previous occasions. Luis Enrique is also a good option for the club, if only the owners of the club will be patient and give the new head coach time in the amount of several years to build a team, and not throw him out of the club at the slightest failure. |

Alcaraz has improved mentally and the next time he will face Djokovic, he will be a different player from the last time they played. Winning a trophy will greatly boost his confidence in his self and his strengths. Alcaraz is so young and already number one, that will make him one of the top players who will be predicted and expected to win the competition. A win in the Wimbledon will big for him and the career he hopes to get.
Well, the grass surface does not seem to be the crown for Alcaraz, and therefore I am not so sure of the successful outcome of the match for the Spanish tennis player in the event of his meeting with Djokovic, who is still considered a much greater specialist in grass and adapts best to the peculiarities of these Wimbledon courts. I was much more confident earlier that Alcaraz would beat Djokovic at Roland Garros, but you can see for yourself what happened. However, I will not be surprised at all by the success of Alcaraz, because he already exists and will remain the top future of tennis, unless injuries torment. |

Well, we are just speculating about his future in this sport and just basing by his words as he announced last week that he already has no plans in joining the team and play for the upcoming 2026 World Cup. Now, many of us here thinks that what's with the rush because just joined the Inter-Miami and a few couple of weeks ago and now he's saying that he's not inclined to play in the next WC. I particularly don't believe that what he said was final because he still have 2 more years to decide.
In any case, Messi did not say that the decision not to play at the 2026 FIFA World Cup is final and all his recent statements are at the level of assumptions. A lot will depend on the physical health of Messi himself, and if you think sensibly, then the player may well play until that time. Well, if he still continues to play for the club until this deadline, then I think the issue of participation in the final part will be resolved. Another question is that, after all, for sure a football player will not participate in all the qualifying matches of his national team, especially in friendly matches, because age is age. |

Well, Manchester United is a team that doesn't have a problem with spending money to recruit new players and even top players. The problem is with the management that wasn't good nor stable to maintain the brilliance of the team. With Ten Hag, the team shortly moved from playing like clowns to compete for the top spots. That was a good step for a team that missed a lot of points in the beginning of the season. Next season will be more promising in my opinion for Manchester United but they have to consolidate the team and get ride of useless players.
Now the most important thing for Manchester United is to arrange the sale of the club as soon as possible, because there is information that the Glazer family is no longer going to spend money on new acquisitions, and the new owners, respectively, also have absolutely no way to do this yet. They say that Ten Hag is tearing up and rushing about this, because the club needs reinforcements, but he can't do anything at all and only looks with impotence at how the main competitors are strengthening. |

The question is which team that is willing to buy him? His release clause was very high and i think that only big clubs that owned by billionaires can afford to buy him from napoli. Osimhen's contract is still remain a bit long at this moment with napoli. Im sure that osimhen will stay even longer in napoli instead of leaving from this club. It's enough for him to get another scudetto again with napoli next season. He can choose to leave from the club but his buyer must able to pay non sense price for him which is no even worthy. It's better waiting his contract to end soon rather than try get him right now. I think that any clubs that want him must wait for next season rather than try to bet on him right now.
That's about the fact that Napoli will be able to win the Scudetto again and this season I have very big doubts, because all the events of last season were akin to a miracle, and miracles usually have properties not to be repeated too often, that's why a miracle is called a miracle Osimhen obviously would not want to stay with Napoli, just as it is obvious that no club is either willing or able to pay the 150 million euros requested by Aurelio De Laurentiis. Therefore, for the time being, most likely Osimhen will stay in Napoli and continue to please the fans of the team. Another question is whether Osimhen will be so joyful and, accordingly, equally scoring, we will find out in the near future. |

Ansu Fati is still quite young, I think he needs time to make a lot of big contributions to Barcelona. Even in terms of performance statistics last season I don't think it was too bad because he was able to score 7 goals in the 36 matches he played. I think Xavi and the Barcelona management should give Fati time to continue to develop in the next season. He is quite a talented player and I hope he is not let go in this season's transfer window. However, on the one hand, the financial crisis experienced by Barcelona, which did not improve, made the decision to sell players the right strategy for them to earn money in balancing the club's finances. Apart from that i think if xavi tries to sell these two players of course xavi will be able to buy a few other players in this transfer window this season. For now, I see no offers coming to Barcelona regarding their initiative to sell their two strikers. However, all decisions made by Barcelona management are the best decisions and we believe they will get better quality players if they really want to sell Fati and Torres.
Yes, it would look especially funny now to sell Ansu Fati, who a few years ago was officially declared Messi's heir and even given his game number 10. I think it would still be rather imprudent on the part of Xavi and the Barcelona management not to try to give the player, especially his pupil, another chance. Fati is only 20 years old and he has not yet shown his full potential. Although I perfectly understand Xavi, who has already built a model of the game without the participation of Fati, but still I think it's a pleasant headache for any coach when you need to look for an opportunity to integrate a talented player into the game scheme of his team. |

But what is the chance that Mbappe saying he loves Paris and he wants to stay at PSG is meant seriously? i never thought when I watched him play for PSG that he is a happy player, someone who enjoys being where he is right now and who is giving his best in every single game he is playing for that club. He had that dream when PSG told him that they are going to buy all those that they could bring the Champions League title to Paris, but now with all those players parting ways this dream is gone and while everybody makes decisions for their career, he will be the next one to leave PSG. It would leave me speechless if he touches the grass as a PSG player in a few weeks from now.
As I said earlier, money rules the world, so on the contrary, I would not be surprised at all if Mbappe stays in Paris for at least this season, especially when it turned out about the so-called loyalty bonus of 90 million euros. I think that Real Madrid will quite accept such a scenario and will wait for the player next year after the completion of the player's contract with PSG. However, one should not discount the oriental temperament of the owners of Paris Saint Germain, something unpredictable can also grow on this soil, both for Mbappe and Real Madrid, and for you and me. |

There is again something in the making around Kane and this time it has been officially confirmed by Bayern that they sent an offer to Tottenham trying to transfer Kane for €70 million. But so far it seems that Tottenham refused the offer although Bayern and Kane have agreed upon the terms for a contract. That is what the news say but it is worthless as long as Tottenham doesn't agree to sell him for €70 million. Bayern knows that they don't have that many options to fix that problem now but I can see how Bayern is struggling to pay more for Kane. He isn't young anymore and the closer they get to the 100 million for this transfer, the higher the risk if course. If he gets injured, it would be a horrible situation for them as they would be in the same situation again.
In fact, such things have long been possible to hedge competently, simply by competently drawing up the transfer conditions. Well, I think that it will not reach 100 million euros, given the age of the player, although something close to this may well be formed taking into account some bonuses, such as that a player plays a certain number of matches in a season and scores a certain number of goals and then the amount for the transfer increases. I think Tottenham have two options for the sale price of Kane. One price, which is much higher for English clubs and another price is less for clubs not from England. |

I'm sure the acquisition will not happen this month and Manchester United must miss the transfer window moment at least for this season and wait in the middle of the season. Honestly, I am worried that Manchester United's performance in the following season is not optimal, they have not taken any steps so far except to release a few players while their competitors have moved faster. The information I got at this time Erik Ten Hag is still limited to the certainty of the transfer funds he cannot freely bring players because of limited funds.
Yes, the process of selling Manchester United by the Glazer family can hurt the club's transfer campaign and, accordingly, strengthen, because here, in addition to uncertainty in the financial sphere, it is also worth adding that all potential candidates will want to move to the club in such conditions, and others, on the contrary, may abandon plans to stay at the club. By the way, in this regard, the story of the extension of De Gea's contract with MU is indicative, when the goalkeeper has already agreed to a contract reduction and signed it, while Manchester United suddenly changed their mind and wants to cut the player's salary even more. All this indicates some chaos in the management of the club. |

I think Ancelotti was not careless when he chose Joselu, apart from being easy to get because Espanyol were relegated, the player is a sharp striker and has experience requirements. it could be that what Don Carlo is doing is the first step if they don't find an alternative player who fits the criteria to be Benzema's successor, despite the Mbappe rumours. but it could also be, that Don Carlo will bring in a striker who is far more outstanding as Karim Benzema's successor. after all, the summer transfer window still has time for Ancelotti to improve his squad to make it more competitive. whoever is a Real Madrid centre-forward, we will know and see how they play. it could also be, Joselu will give his best game if he has the support and services of his team-mates.
In fact, the market for elite strikers is not so wide, and in light of the fact that Real Madrid seems to have abandoned the idea of getting Harry Kane, then there remains the candidacy of Killian Mbappe, with whom certain difficulties have arisen in this transfer window. There are rumors that Real Madrid has agreed with the player that if the transfer cannot be done now, then it should happen next summer. However, I would not advise Real Madrid to rely heavily on such layouts, because not everything is decided by the player himself, but rather by his mother and we must remember how such an oral agreement between the player and the club ended last time. Money rules the world, and Mbappe's mom probably wouldn't mind taking 150 million from PSG next season, and then arrange an auction between those who want to get a player. |

Well the first offer from Bayern Munich was rejected by Tottenham. I think the second option might be that Bayern Munich will increase their offer if they really want to sign Harry Kane in this transfer window. I'm not surprised if Harry Kane will accept offers from outside the EPL because it's a principle that Tottenham don't want to release their stars to EPL teams. so in this case I think Tottenham really want to dissuade Kane from leaving in this transfer window, the figure of 70 million I think is very suitable especially since he will be 30 years old in the next month. But all of that is in the hands of the Tottenham management if they want to hold it at 100 million, of course the team interested in Kane must spend as much money as they want. Apart from that I think if Harry Kane goes to the Bundesliga with Bayern Munich of course he will be able to get a lot of trophies because Bayern Munich is a big team that is very strong in the Bundesliga. Bayern Munich have yet to find a suitable replacement for their front line after Lewandowski left so there is a good chance they will again make a higher bid for Tottenham in this transfer window.
The laws of the market and bargaining have not been canceled yet, and I would be very surprised if Bayern Munich would immediately offer the maximum that they agree to pay for a player, and Tottenham, on the contrary, would agree to the first offer. This is just the beginning, and apparently Bayern Munich is really the only real candidate to buy a player, because the other real candidates can only be from England, and I am absolutely sure that Tottenham probably won't want to strengthen their competitors, unless they offer exorbitant amounts, for example, in the region of 200 million euros. Bayern really need such a scoring player, and even if they managed to leave Sadio Mane, it would be possible to see the reincarnation of a super bond similar to Salah's link with Mane in Liverpool. |

He has stated that he is more comfortable at Juventus for next season. He's not going to throw in the towel and go to another team because he got everything he wanted at Juventus. Even the new Juventus board members also fully support so that Allegri can last longer with Juventus, this is none other than Allegri's good behavior towards Juventus last season. Where he had given a few words that when Juventus slumped he would still be with Juventus and that was a form of his loyalty in refusing an offer to coach a team from the Suadi Arab League. Next season juventus will probably return to a better position in the standings table and it is very likely that they will bounce back after this season they failed to do so.
Well, let's not forget about the number of points that were taken from Juventus during this season and with which the club could even claim a place in the top three. Although, of course, by the standards of Juventus, it was a rather weak season. I am not a fan of the coaching talent, and even more so of Allegri's style of play, but still it is worth admitting that the specialist did a pretty good job in these difficult conditions. By the way. there were rumors that the Juventus management during the season was most stopped from firing a specialist by a large amount of penalty for breaking the contract. I think that more clarity about the post of head coach will be made after the situation with the club's management is clarified, because personally I have the impression that the new management of the club was assembled just to overcome the crisis situation and after that there will be changes again, especially since it seems that the punishments for the previous management have recently been mitigated or it was canceled altogether. |

I believe the current situation is now dependent on both clubs. The one who makes the best offer will get him now, or the one who makes a greater offer at the conclusion of his contract will be able to keep him later. The pressure on Real Madrid to own Mbappe has intensified significantly, but the player is focused on not disappointing his current club while also researching what would be in his favor when he departs the club.
Mbappe won the World Cup and other European trophies in Ligue 1, and his champions league dream may come true if he eventually leaves PSG. They couldn't advance far in the Champions League with him when he had Messi and Neymar to assist, now that they’re not all together, I’m not sure if it’s still achievable with the current squad, hence a need for him to decide where will favour him to win the champions league trophy.
The whole point is that the presence of Messi, Neymar and Mbappe in the same club does not guarantee the title of the winner of the Champions League at all, especially since Messi himself admitted in a recent interview that he is no longer the player he used to be. And let's remember that Messi himself won the Champions League EIGHT years ago in 2015 and all subsequent years he has not been given this title. Similarly, Mbappe's departure to Real Madrid does not guarantee him this coveted title at all. I won't even be surprised when fate plays a joke on him and next year, when Mbappe leaves the club, Paris Saint-Germain, on the contrary, will win the Champions League  |

Yes, indeed statistically Joselu is not very experienced in this event, if i'm not mistaken when playing at E. Frankfurt also he could only play 7 matches, actually 9 but 2 matches he didn't play. And in 7 matches he could only get 1 score and 1 assist, a record that is not very good for a striker. But that was before, now maybe Joselu is growing and getting better because Ancellotti might be able to make this man be shine at the age he is not young anymore. But I here agree with what you say Real Madrid still need a solid striker if they want the UCL trophy.
It's just that Real Madrid now needs a strong experienced striker after the departure of Benzema, especially a pupil of his academy, who has already scored for Real Madrid in official matches before, which also cost very cheap. This is clearly not buying a player for the future for many years, but simply closing an empty position, although of course Josela can hardly be called a replacement for Benzema, but they also talked about Benzema himself when Ronaldo left the club and Benzema coped with his role completely afterwards. Maybe Joselu is from the same row |

How Pochettino kicked those players makes me worried about Chelsea future. Those players who left Chelsea are good players, I don't know why they should be leaving Chelsea. For me, transfer policy made by Chelsea, indicates they still don't understand what the weaknesses of this team exactly. Chelsea don't know how to build their squad with proper players.
Let's hope that Pochettino, with his coaching experience, knows what he is going for and I'm not sure that the departure of all these players is Pochettino's initiative. However, if with the presence of such players Chelsea dropped so much in the standings last season, then it means that these players are to blame for this and there is a certain logic in parting with them. We can say that Chelsea recruited good musicians, but could not make an equally good orchestra out of them. Also, let's not forget that the club did not get into the Champions League, so the club definitely needs to squeeze in expenses and therefore the club is not able to keep all the players in its squad. I also think that Pochettino had a certain word which of the players should definitely be left. |

With the current squad at Bayern Munich, Harry Kane will definitely be banging goals for fun for them come next season if by any means Bayern secures his signature. Tottenham Hotspur management knows that Harry Kane is one of the major reason why Tottenham are still recognized as a big English club and would not want let him leave their club. But a player of Kane's Calibre is supposed to be winning trophies at this time of his career and if he truly wants to win trophies before retiring from Football, then he should leave Tottenham this summer
Harry Kane had to leave Tottenham a few years ago because even then it became clear that he could hardly count on titles with the current owner of the club. Especially now, when the other leading clubs are thoroughly strengthened before the next season by raising prices and rates and Tottenham will clearly not be able to match competitors in spending. However, there may be mutual interest that the club sells its leader for a good sum and strengthen with this money, and Kane finally starts winning titles at another club. How not to remember how a few years ago Kane was obliged to move to Manchester City, which this season has issued a treble. And just Kane is quite able to replace Lewandowski in Bayern Munich as a goalscorer, a role that Sadio Mane cannot cope with. So I think it would be a mutually beneficial alliance for both Bayern Munich and Kane himself. |
