The years are passing quickly, absolutely. But Mbappe knows that, he is aware that losing another season at PSG can cost him a lot in terms of his achievements as an individual player. I think it is already sad that he wasted a couple of years at PSG. It was entertaining in the beginning when it was Messi, Mbappe and Neymar, but retrospectively it didn't help him much except for becoming rich. But he would have become rich in any other club as well. Now he is in his mid 20s already and time is running. He could have broken dozens of records, but that is becoming more difficult now.
But it is becoming clearer every day that clubs will not want to sign the French attacker this season. Mbappe has made it clear that he doesn't intend to renew his contract with PSG, which means he will be a free agent at the end of this season. This will make him cheaper for clubs to sign him. Real Madrid was willing to get him this season but the financial implication plus his £893,000 weekly wage looks like a barrier.
There is not also any certainty that he would win trophies if he moves to Real Madrid or another English team that needs his service. PSG's new coach Luis Enrique shouldn't be underestimated, he is also making plans to make the club a force in Europe. He is targeting to bring in Joao Felix from Chelsea and Bernardo Silva from Manchester City.
Mbappé may not be going to an English club even if he receives big offers from English clubs and his reason for not renewing his contract with PSG this season is to join a good quality club as a free agent next season. In the case of leaving as a free agent, he will give the most priority to Real Madrid. Because Mbappe has different plans for Real Madrid. Just as Mbappe needs a top level team, Real Madrid need a quality striker which Mbappe can fill the gap. It is almost certain that Mbappe is not leaving PSG this season, so Mbappe is expected to join Real Madrid as a free agent next season.

Sri Lanka Women vs New Zealand Women

The first two ODI matches between Sri Lanka women team vs New Zealand women team have already been played where Sri Lanka won the first match and New Zealand won the second match. The Sri Lanka Women's team and the New Zealand Women's team are pitted against each other in the third and final ODI series decider today. This match is currently closed due to rain.  
Batting first before the rain, New Zealand had to say a good start as they managed to accumulate 127 runs for two wickets on the scoreboard so far after 31 overs. The run room is a bit less but if the game is played in full overs, New Zealand Women will be able to score a big one against Sri Lanka Women as New Zealand Women have got eight valuable wickets so far. New Zealand Women's team can bat in T20 style for next 20 overs if they want as they still have enough wickets in hand.

Srilanka not only win this match but also won the ODI series.

The match was decided on D/L method and the Srilanka women's team performed better than the two. Believe me that the target for the Srilanka was not an easy one but their captain Chamari Athapaththu single handed won this match for them. She scored 140 runs in only 80 balls and it was just treat to watch this innings.


The first innings of the New Zealand women's team lasted for 31 overs, then due to rain, the New Zealand women's team did not get a chance to bat in the first innings. The New Zealand women's team was 127 runs for 2 wickets in 31 overs. Although the wicket was sufficient, the New Zealand women's team was far behind in terms of runs, due to which an easy target was presented to the Sri Lankan women's team in the DLS system and the Sri Lankan women's team was able to fulfill that easy target easily. Sri Lanka Women won the ODI series against New Zealand Women by winning the third and final ODI match with eight wickets in hand.

First of all, you need to know what kind of equipment you might need to mine Bitcoin. Knowing about the specific equipment will give you an idea of how much money you might need to mine Bitcoin. Bitcoin mining usually requires mining software, a good quality computer, power, hardware, wallet, and other equipment. Make a list of these equipments in what kind of budget you will buy these items according to the budget and estimate the price of each equipment and then calculate the total. Hopefully the totals will give you an idea of what your initial cost of mining Bitcoin might be. It will be difficult for you to start mining with $300. Because buying a good quality computer can cost you 300 dollars. With 600 to 1000 dollars you can start mining.

The position of attacker and defender is Real Madrid's weak point next season and if the current transfer market does not buy the players needed in these positions, then Real Madrid's strength will not be much different from the previous season. For the midfield position they have Bellingham as a new force that can help Real Madrid and I think that position is safe for them next season.
Indeed, Real Madrid really needs a striker (forwards) and also a defender. But the most urgent and important thing is the front (attacker) as a replacement for Benzema. Indeed they have new players but not enough when compared to the previous Benzema.

As for the replacement for Benzema there is no news on which player Real Madrid will buy, but some news circulating in the media is that Kylian Mbappe is a priority that Real Madrid is trying to approach.
It seems that many are still expecting Mbappe, but we have to be realistic that Mbappe will not go to Real Madrid, especially in the current transfer season.
Real madrid as before always surprises in the transfer window and I'm sure they will do it again in this transfer window. Nothing is impossible for Real Madrid to get Mbappe even though the player has given a signal that he will stay with PSG. But if there is no interference coming, I don't know if it's any problem of course it will make him change that decision. I think real madrid will spend a lot of money for mbappe but it will be done by real madrid because they need a proper replacement after Benzema leaves.

From their defense I think Real Madrid have a lot of players in stock. So their main focus remains on their forward line because that will be able to balance their strengths for next season. The midfield has been quite strong after signing Bellingham.
Rumors about Real Madrid and Mbappé are heard from time to time. A few days ago there were rumors that Mbappe is joining Real Madrid very soon but after a few days I heard again that Mbappe will join Real Madrid after this season. But now it is heard again whether Mbappe will stay at PSG. Why did Mbappe express interest in joining Real Madrid if he stayed at PSG? Real Madrid may not have the salary and facilities that Mbappe enjoyed at PSG but despite all this, Mbappe wanted to join Real Madrid only to fulfill his dream. But for now, Mbappe is certain to stay at PSG. Nothing is understood about the next season yet. Maybe Mbappe could be seen at Real Madrid as a free agent next season.

Inter Miami hasn't stopped yet to buy european players because after gets Messi and Busquets their next plan is to gets Jordi Alba and Luis Suarez and currently Inter Miami representative still discussing with the agents of these players to talk about this transfer and for Jordi Alba maybe the transfer will be easy because if i am not mistaken he and Barcelona already separate and Jordi Alba status as free agent but for Luis Suarez currently he still playing at Brazilian team Gremio and he has 1 year remaining contract so if Inter Miami want to used Suarez service then they have to bought him from Gremio however if this is happend we will see the former player of Barcelona will be playing together in the same team again
After signing Lionel Messi to Inter Miami, the American club is eyeing some other European stars. Luis Suárez is currently playing for a Brazilian club. Lionel Messi may have wanted Luis Suárez in the team after joining Inter Miami. Because Messi Neymar and Luis Suárez played for Barcelona, Lionel Messi has proposed to the management to take Luis Suárez to Inter Miami in order to get a good partner. If Luis Suárez and Lionel Messi can play in the same team for an American club, then Inter Miami will be one of the best American clubs.  Since Luis Suárez has another year on his contract, the Brazilian club may have to spend more money if Inter Miami wants to sign him this season.

Quote from: Velvet78
For now Kovacic is the only transfer made by Manchester City this summer. However they have been working on completing a way bigger deal for a long time. They are after Gvardiol as you know and their latest offer was really close to the amount Leipzig wanted for him. I still don't see any update on these negotiations but I assume Manchester City wouldn't stop until securing the deal.

Guardiola has been eager to see him in his team for a long time. This is going to be a really serious improvement in their defense and they will be even more challenging to be stopped. Maybe Gvardiol is a very young player for a defender but he is already impressive with his defending skills.

I think, money will not stop Manchester city not to sign in a potential defenders just to improve more in the area of defense because they really experienced some challenges from the beginning of premier league competition table, that made Arsenal to top the table before Manchester city took over the position till the end of the tournament. It hard for Manchester city coach to bring in players who cannot perform well in the team because he always Carry out his personal research before inviting any player and the player will do wonders like what Erling Haaland is doing in the Manchester city. I believe, Manchester city defensive will be more solid next season because this talented young defender have something good to offer to Manchester city.
Manchester City management has really proven its performance in terms of player recruitment. The players they are hunting for clearly have prospects and potential so they will not hesitate to spend money even though the player's price is very expensive. If they succeed in bringing in Gvardiol then the strength at the back will be very solid and difficult for other teams to match. Apart from that, Kovacic is also a suitable replacement for Gundogan who has left. I believe that in the next few seasons Manchester City will be difficult to stop, especially since they are still managed by Pep Guardiola.
It would not be wrong to say that the team that Pep Guardiola has created at Manchester City is the best team in the Premier League. They have done well with this team this season and are likely to do well with this team next season. In other words, the strategy that Pep Guardiola has been trying to achieve success for a long time has been successful. Players have been able to master this technique well within themselves. Now Manchester City need to find a good replacement for Gundogan. Because this midfielder star did a great performance for Manchester City last season. If someone like him can't be signed to Manchester City, we could see some weakness in the midfield.

Liverpool have signed a sponsorship deal with Nike for a Premier League record $94 million a year. Mbappe is a brand ambassador for Nike. Some analysts believe this will ease Mbappe's eventual move to Liverpool (although I doubt it will be beneficial for Mbappe). Maybe the agreements between Nike, Liverpool and Mbappe have some internal options for the benefit of the parties if this transition takes place?

But PSG is still owning mbappe's contract. It doesn't even matter whether mbappe has become BA for nike. I think that the decision will be on PSG to determine how much money shall be paid to get mbappe. Mbappe can only agree with the proposal if he was getting money like what he wanted before. That's why i do believe that thing will not give impact. Liverpool must pay a lot of money if the club is willing to get him from PSG since mbappe is still under contract with PSG.


Still, there is a high chance for Mbappe to leave this team and he said before this is the last season for him to play in Paris, but today I saw a photo of the PSG shirt unveiling ceremony that made me think Mbappe will definitely stay in PSG for another season and there is even a chance for him to expect his contract with PSG.

That's the shirt they are going to use for the next season with Mbappe:



A player must attend the unveiling of the official jersey before his contract with the club ends. Before Messi left the club we saw Messi attend PSC's jersey unveiling. Mbappe is likely to stay at PSG this season, but he may not stay at PSG next season. Because this French star has a big chance of changing clubs. He may sign with Real Madrid in the next winter transfer window. But for the time being, Neymar is likely to stay at PSG. Because Luis Enrique has already joined as PSG manager and Neymar had a great time at Barcelona under him. Maybe this former Barcelona coach wants to form a strong team with Neymar.

Neymar's top market value was 180 million euros 3 years ago. But in the last 3 years there has been an enormous level of drop in his value. As of June 27 it has dropped to 60 million euros. Of course he has got older in the meantime and he is 31 now. However this is still not a normal level of drop without doubt.

It is mostly because of being injury-prone and getting injured for really long time periods. I'm wondering if he will really be leaving PSG in the summer. There is 0 rumour about him on the recent days. I wonder if he is okay with leaving Europe as well. Considering his situation it might be the best move.
Firstly, Neymar's value hasn't dropped that much for age, his market value has dropped that much because he's been injured for most of the season. If he can perform well for the team for just one season, his market value will increase again. One of the most important things for Neymar is to save himself. He is careful not to get injured and then perform in every match.  

The second thing is that it is confirmed that Neymar will not leave Europe at the moment. If any good European club offers to take him then he will tag psg otherwise he will stay with psg for one more season.
Yes, injury is an endless nightmare that Neymar feels, almost every time he is constantly injured, even though it is not a serious injury that requires him to be sidelined for a long time, even a minor injury will keep him out and unable to play. Yes, sometimes things like this become a factor where the player has to decline, even though if you look at his actual appearance he is still very good. The decline in Neymar's market value proves that it really has a big impact on his appearance. At a time like that, other clubs will also consider signing him more, because they will also think about why bring in players who sit a lot on the bench to rest.
At one time Neymar was one of the most valuable players in the transfer market but with the change of time and befriending injuries, Neymar's market value has dropped a lot. A new team would consider spending most of the season on the sidelines before signing him, making many big clubs reluctant to sign Neymar. Injuries have been a regular problem for him. Although no player wants to get injured but I know why Neymar has become friends with injuries time and again. If he had not had so many injury problems in his football career, he might have achieved a lot more from this football.

A lot of the money that is earned every month through physical and mental labor ends up in taxes to our government. If you want to talk on the phone, you have to pay extra tax, if you buy something, you have to pay extra text, if you go shopping, you have to pay tax separately. If you want to buy a car, you have to pay the same amount as tax to the government. At present it is becoming very difficult for common people to buy various things due to additional taxes. It is a different matter if the tax is increased over time, but the government increases the tax on the people whenever it feels like it, which is very troublesome for the people.

there are some Rumours in football i do not give attention, i will just view the headlines and pass. Liverpool bidding for Mbappe is not out of place, because every clubs need him in their team. but the possibility for mbappe to leave psg to Liverpool that is not playing champions league is very slim. Mbbappe can only leave Psg to Manchester united and Real madrid and not to any club that's not in champions league.

Arsenal are also interested in Mbappe, since Mbappe has not sign a new contract for Psg, every clubs are observing the situation kindly. one thing issure, mbappe will not be playing in psg next season if he do not extend his contract. by next year he will be free agent and they will lose more. Pgs has to be rational about the situation.
Like avoiding such rumours  Because despite Mbappe being offered so much money, he is only thinking of leaving PSG with the hope of winning the Champions League trophy and the Ballon d'Or, why would he sign for that money with a team like Liverpool who have not already qualified for the Champions League? The biggest and most likely of all the rumors is Mbappé's move to Real Madrid. If Mbappe does decide to switch clubs, he is most likely to join Real Madrid. And this possibility may be true. Also I don't think Mbappe can join Liverpool.

Well it took Guardiola quite some many years to be able to win the Champions League despite he having one of the best teams in the world when it comes to great players,he always had great names but it took him several years in order to harmonize this team even in European competitions so all kudos to him,for me though any other coach would have won at least once the Champions League with these players in his disposal,just my opinion.I do believe Guardiola to be one of the best coaches out there but I think it took him a lot of time to win a Champions League trophy with all these great players,nevertheless the Champions are never judged so let's see the next upcoming season.
Guardiola is a very skilled coach and Manchester City is a very strong team. The combination of a skilled coach and a strong team has taken a long time for Manchester City to win the Champions League trophy. If a team like Manchester City has to work so hard, the Champions League trophy is like a dream for other teams. But Guardiola has proven that hard work and focus on one's goals and self-belief make any difficult task easier.  
Guardiola is not the best manager after seeing Manchester City win the Champions League trophy, he is already the best manager because his style of play is completely different.
I don't agree if you say Guardiola is not the best manager, previously he had won many trophies with Barcelona in various competitions which made him win his first treble as a manager. His success continued throughout his career in the Bundesliga, with Bayern Munich he was also able to prove his quality.
After successfully bringing Manchester City to the first treble in the history of the club, Guardiola became a coach who was able to win 2x trebles, Guardiola success in winning 2x trebles may be difficult for other coaches to achieve for the next few seasons. Manchester City is trying to maintain the success that has just been achieved, they are trying to add strength to their squad to face the challenges next season.

I said that those who think that Guardiola winning ucl trophy for manchester city is a good coach are wrong because even before he won champions league trophy with manchester city he was an experienced and quite capable coach. There are many who consider Guardiola to be among the best with Manchester City's Champions League trophy. But if he could not win the Champions League trophy this season, would he be an incompetent coach? This is not the case at all.  
As you said he won several trophies for Barcelona. He has also had some notable success with Bayan Munich and has always been a great coach.

Manchester United may be looking to strengthen their defense at the moment. Because if your own defense is not strong then it is very difficult to break the opponent's defense and score. First you have to protect your goal post. After securing their own goalposts, a team usually thinks of strengthening the midfield and forwards. Ever since the change of ownership of Manchester United, the team has been rebuilding itself. If this team can be given good financial support, then Manchester United will be in the list of the best teams in the Premier League. The club will be looking to revamp their squad with a number of new players before the transfer market closes this summer.
after Man City's success last season was able to get the treble title, this is what triggered Man United to try their luck to compete with Man City. even if it's a little difficult, Erik Ten Ha tried a newer strategy by strengthening their defense to be able to maintain their points in the standings and of course MU also needs talented players to add to the defense.
on the one hand Man United is currently ambitious to get up and aim for the champions league title to be able to carve new history like Man City but it's not that easy because this will be a tough task for Erik Ten Ha to be able to keep his players consistent in every match .
At the moment, if Manchester United competes with Manchester City for the Champions League trophy, then Manchester United will be far behind. Manchester United should plan to win the Premier League title next season. Because if they think about winning the Champions League trophy, they won't do well in the Premier League. Manchester United's main focus next season will be on going for the Premier League titles while also aiming to do well in the Champions League. If they can go ahead with this plan then they could win the Premier League title next season as well as change some players and prepare for the Champions League next season.
It will not be so easy for Manchester United even if they plan to win the Premier League title. Because Manchester United's tough opponent could be Manchester City, Arsenal, Newcastle.

It is true that there is never a rush to invest. Because work that is done in haste is never good. Those who have adequate understanding of the market will never be in a hurry to invest. But the opportunities that come with investing should not be missed. That is, you understand that if you invest in this period, you can earn several times the profit, the moment we should invest in that period. But selling your property in a hurry and taking a loan from the bank should never be done.

Kim Min-jae is often linked with Man United because they do have an interest in the player. However, this interest was not followed up by submitting an offer to Napoli, so it can be concluded that Man United was not really serious about signing Kim Min-jae. I think Man United doesn't have a lot of budgets, so they are not too bold in hunting for Kim Min-jae and what is to blame for this is the protracted acquisition process (Glazer's attitude that makes everything so dicey).
Erik Ten Hag shows absolutely no interest in signing a center back; he is only interested to secure an outstanding attacker to strengthen the defensive side of his team. Manchester United would have considered signing Kim Min-jae, but the club has further significant objectives they must accomplish. The club is currently in a bidding process for new ownership, with The Glazers family seizing all go-ahead bids for the sale of the club. I believe that is the primary challenge on the ground, and United supporters want an immediate action to be triggered in order to put an end to all of the club's up and down trends.

Al-nassr is making a lot of signings, today I saw a rumor that Al-nassr intends to hire the coach Luis castro who is currently the coach of a good team in the brazil league I speak of botafogo, I think it would be a good option, but if also If Al-nassr were looking to hire a Portuguese coach who was working with one of the top 5 teams in the Portuguese league, there is no doubt that Al-nassr would be making an excellent choice. I also saw that Al-nassr signed Marcelo Brozović who are finishing the last details

days ago Al-nassr also signed Hakim Ziyech's, this means that the team is becoming very strong, but I keep asking myself what happens to that rule that says you shouldn't play many foreign players in the field, this means that if you don't review this rule to accommodate these many foreign players on the field, so the Saudi league will not evolve, it is not enough to keep hiring many foreign players when the rules are still rules that do not contribute to the evolution of the Saudi league, I hope that the Saudi league leaders look into this all
Al-Nassr have already brought in several quality players for huge sums of money. They are a successful team in signing players. A good coach is definitely needed to guide good quality players. Maybe they have shortlisted experienced coaching staff from different countries to hire a quality coach. However, the coach they are eyeing in Brazil is an experienced coach. But since Al-Nassr club has players like Ronaldo, I think they need a good European quality coach.  Because in order to guide Ronaldo, the person must know more than Ronaldo, in that case Al-Nassr may be a good choice for the coach of the big teams in Europe.

This match is in Australia's grip at the moment unless rain plays spoilsport and messes up everything. They can easily post a lead greater than 400 since they bat deep though we shouldn't rule out England since we know what they are capable of.
If Australia wins this one too, England will need to win the next 3 matches to win the series which is extremely difficult.
England was cruising at 188/1. And then they lost wickets in a hurry and ended up at 325 all out. Harry Brook was the only lower order batsmen who made a significant contribution. Meanwhile, Usman Khawaja and Steven Smith are batting with a lot of patience and they are scoring at a rate of 2-3 runs per over. Australia may be planning to declare by second session tomorrow, but that looks a bit risky for me. The pitch is not offering a lot of support for the batsmen. Ideally they should score runs quickly and try to declare by lunch tomorrow.
Australia leads England by 221 runs at the end of the third day's play. As the third day's play is already over and Australia has only started their second innings so far on the third day, I feel this match is likely to be a draw. However, the unbeaten wicket pair of Usman Khawaja and Steven Smith could be a concern for England. These two main batsmen of Australia are still unbeaten. If they can build a good partnership, Australia's innings can be huge. The England captain will surely want to break the pair of these two batsmen. As long as these two batsmen remain unbeaten, England's pressure will continue to mount.

Australia's innings will be big. Because England's bowlers and batsmen are not playing well. Australia collected 416 runs in the first innings. And the Australian team collected 130 runs after losing 2 wickets in the second innings. Gradually they are moving towards big collections. Since the Australian team has already managed to take a lead of 221 runs, if Australia can collect 150 runs in the next day, it will be a big collection. However, I expected more responsible batting from England in the first innings. Had Bairstow and Stokes played some big innings, England would have been able to muster 400.
After England failed in the first match, they are again moving towards it in the second match. England were all out in the first innings after trailing by 91 runs from Australia. I think this 91 runs can make a huge difference in England's victory. If England could have equaled Australia's first innings score then England would have been ahead in this match but England's batsmen could do nothing of the sort. Seeing the two innings of the two teams, it is clearly understood that Australia's batting and bowling are much better than England's batting and bowling in this series. If the three days of play are already over if there is a rain problem, this match is likely to be a draw.

This match is in Australia's grip at the moment unless rain plays spoilsport and messes up everything. They can easily post a lead greater than 400 since they bat deep though we shouldn't rule out England since we know what they are capable of.

If Australia wins this one too, England will need to win the next 3 matches to win the series which is extremely difficult.

England was cruising at 188/1. And then they lost wickets in a hurry and ended up at 325 all out. Harry Brook was the only lower order batsmen who made a significant contribution. Meanwhile, Usman Khawaja and Steven Smith are batting with a lot of patience and they are scoring at a rate of 2-3 runs per over. Australia may be planning to declare by second session tomorrow, but that looks a bit risky for me. The pitch is not offering a lot of support for the batsmen. Ideally they should score runs quickly and try to declare by lunch tomorrow.
