According to a bbcsport report Chelsea Kalidou Koulibaly had signed for a Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal at fee reportedly worth £20m, recall Kalidou Koulibaly was signed by the Blues from Napoli last July having established himself as one of the best defender in Europe with the hope of playing for the next five season for the club, unfortunately that hope was dashed by his club abysmal performance in the league and UCL, he is the second Chelsea player heading to Saudi Pro league following the departure of Kante to Al-Ittihad and some Chelsea players like Hakim Ziyech and Mendy are also linked with a move to the Saudi Pro league in a bid by Chelsea to trim their squad for Pochettino to rebuild the team.
It's just matter of time until ziyech and mendy will have been reaching agreements with arabian clubs. The progress from mendy and ziyech are really positive at this moment. These players will be agreed to sign contracts with new clubs to play in saudi pro league.
Massive transfer by chelsea to the arabian clubs has been truggering so many questions to come. Glad to see that arabian clubs have been making chelsea's work to be much easier.
Chelsea must have removed a lot of players from the club. I hope that official announcement for ziyech and mendy will come soon.
Chelsea are experiencing a massive exodus of players. Kalidou Koulibaly has officially become the property of Al-Ahly and Kante belongs to Al-Ittihad. And then the two Blues players will also follow in the footsteps of their compatriots, Ziyech and Mendy will most likely also anchor in Arab lands. The departure of a number of important players in the Chelsea squad will certainly cause a variety of new problems. But Todd Boehly must have thought carefully and he also wants to trim his squad because he made a big transfer in the last transfer market.

Chelsea under Pochettino will certainly start a new chapter, he will be inherited by a potential young squad and of course Boehly will have high hopes for them to be able to restore the glory of the Blues.

As Dzeko is about to join Fenerbahçe and Lukaku is also about to leave the team I wonder what Inter are planning to do. Because they will need to bring at least one centre-forward to the team in this case. Even one might not be enough in the long run thinking of injury or suspension cases as well. One of these strikers should be a reliable one who can make a good duo with Martinez and the other one can be just a good substitute player who can do well when there is a need for him.

It looks like Marcus Thuram deal is about to become official for Inter already. He is a decent scorer but his being versatile is also an advantage for Inter. Because he can even play as a left winger and his stats there so far have been really nice too.
It is certain that Inter will lose their two strikers who will leave in the summer and maybe Inter need not be confused because they have also found replacements. As we know, Marcus Thuram is a good player and he is also still quite young, of course his career will shine even more if he is at Inter.

While with Gladbach last season he scored 16 goals in all German competitions and Simeone Inzaghi seemed to be smart by bringing him to the Giuzeppe Miazza stadium. Because his contract ended at the end of this season, Inter got him on a free agent status. But apart from Marcus Thuram, of course Inter will try to find another striker so that the available options are maximized for next season's attack line.

I think Inter Milan have taken a good step after successfully hooking Marcus Thuram, he is projected to replace Dzeko who left for Fenerbahce. I'm pretty sure Thuram will make a positive impact up front alongside Martinez. Apart from that, Inter also looked very aggressive in the summer transfer market, besides Thuram Inter were also able to bring in Azpilicueta for free, even though he is relatively old, his presence will certainly get a good injection of morale for other players. But I hope that Inzaghi will keep Onana under the rule and will not be swayed by tempting offers from other teams. I'm sure if Onana leaves it will be very regrettable in the future.

Not a Chelsea fan but I believe it’s too early to start calling Mudryk a flop from his stint at Shaktar Donetsk he was arguably their best player there. He needs time to adjust to the Premier League which is the toughest league in the world.
There was no player in Chelsea last season who performed close to their level/standard, they were all really bad and thus it is somewhat unfair to single one player out as a flop, but rather the entire team flopped. Mudryk has time to shine, he is just 22 years of age and is yet to have one full season in Chelsea. If Pochettino decides that the Ukrainian is good enough to play in his team, he'll give him the opportunity next season, and we'd then see how good he performs and only at the end of next season can we now pass appraisal on him.
Last season was really bad for Chelsea there is no one to blame because since the transfer of ownership things have been very chaotic. Now Todd Boehly has understood the situation and he has taken the right steps by recruiting Pochettino as manager. Pochettino arrived inheriting the young squad that Potter had recruited. In fact, these young players have a lot of potential and maybe this season they will release all their potential to bring Chelsea back to being able to compete at the top flight. I saw that the young Blues had no mentality and the two previous managers didn't see the needs of every player. So for that Pochettino must be observant to see what his players need, he must come to instill the mentality and develop the right strategy so that the players can easily understand it. I'm sure that even if they can't get into the top four next season, at least the Blues will compete in 5-6 positions in the standings.

After Nagelsmann couldn't meet the expectations last season Tuchel will have a serious responsibility to make this team rise again. Of course they won the Bundesliga title anyway but it was thanks to Dortmund's unbelievable result on the final week. This can't be called as a successful season for them at all.

First the squad should be consolidated well which would increase their chance to bring back their usual dominance. But Tuchel's system will play the key role here. He can be relied on in the Champions League to be more competitive for being champion maybe. It was a big success of him that he won this title with Chelsea while they didn't have one of the best squads among the bigger title contenders.

Maybe he can do his magic here with Bayern Munich too but we will see. For now they have a long way to go for even being able to compete at the same level with the tournament favourite, Manchester City.
The transition period that Bayern Munich went through after replacing Nagelsmann with Tuchel did not go smoothly, but the Bavarians were lucky because Dortmund stumbled in the final game. But I think that under Tuchel's full control, Bayern Munich will again be able to dominate the Bundesliga. The team's strength is very difficult to contain, especially since its main rival, Dortmund, is no longer as good as last season because several of its key players have left. If Bayern continues to dominate, the prestige of the Bundesliga will be very difficult to lift and very boring.

To compete in the Champions League is certainly not an easy matter for Tuchel, but he has a very big chance to bring Munich to continue advancing on the European stage. Now Tuchel is focusing on deepening the strength of his team and he is of course on the hunt for a striker to add sharpness up front. Because after the departure of Lewandowski, Bayern have not found the right replacement striker.

Just as I expected Lewandowski also got an offer by Saudi Arabian teams. But thankfully he didn't accept the offer according to news. I wasn't expecting him to leave Europe this early after joining Barcelona truthfully. I will be expecting to see him play for at least one more season and then he might start thinking of his exit from the team for a new adventure.

Meanwhile Barcelona had better work harder to be better in the Champions League while they have Lewandowski. It isn't easy to find a special striker like him these days but they haven't been able to do much in the Champions League group stage so far. I hope to see some improvement next season and hopefully Lewandowski can lead the team to a bigger success. I know he wasn't impressive against big teams there in the previous season but I expect him to return much stronger thanks to his experience as well.
Lewandowski is enjoying good times at Barcelona and of course El Barca must always make the striker comfortable. I am sure that in the near future Lewandowski will not change his mind about joining the Saudi League even though he is offered a double salary.

The arrival of Gundogan can also be a strong reason for Lewandowski to stay at Camp Nou. And the two of them will definitely collaborate to bring Barcelona back to glory in La Liga and in the Champions League. I see that the Blaugrana have started to bounce back even though financially they are still not stable.

Kylian Mbappé might be signing with Real Madrid soon, and it could happen in the next few weeks. This is really good news so far. Florentino Perez, really need Mbappé because he can't depend on Vini Jr alone. Perez is quite desperate to sign the young footballer so that Real Madrid can continue winning trophies in various competitions. However, no single player is more important than the club, and Real Madrid won't let any player hold them to ransom. In my opinion, it's time for PSG to cash in by selling Mbappé before they lose him for free.
Yes, various speculations regarding Mbappe have resurfaced. In fact Perez is no longer chasing Mbappe in the summer market because he prefers to wait for Mbappe on a free basis in the summer of next year. But there is news that again states that Perez is again showing high interest in the PSG striker and he is even ready to submit a proposal. This is very likely to happen because Mbappe no longer wants to extend his tenure in Paris which will expire in June 2024 with an extension clause until 2025.

PSG certainly don't want to lose Mbappe empty-handed and of course they are ready to sell him to Real Madrid. But I don't believe the deal will happen this season and Perez should switch to an alternative target to Firmino which makes more sense.

People think Pochettino can be a better coach than Potter and Lampard they are maybe right because we know Lanpard is not an experienced coach and he couldn't have a good performance in the last weeks when he was coaching Chelsea, while Potter also had nad performance in Chelsea and he couldn't even get fired in the first weeks.
Maybe Pochettino can help Chelsea to improve their performance and get a better place in the table for the next season.
The truth is that Pochettino is a better coach than both Lampard and Potter combined. Pochettino  squad building and integration skills is not something that can brushed aside in the bigger scale. Also, Potter and Lampard got every media support before and during the chelsea job and failed miserably. Why is the media not giving Pochettino  a chance at all?
You are right, Lampard + Potter are better than Pochettino. Chelsea's management also believes in Pochettino's ability to give him the freedom to choose the players he wants to occupy the Chelsea squad next season. The opportunity given to Pochettino needs support from all sides, he needs time to do something worthwhile. Chelsea will soon start a new chapter with a new coach and several new players brought in in the Pochettino Era, only time can tell whether Pochettino has been successful with Chelsea.
I dare not give more guarantees to Pochettino even though he had experience in the EPL with Tottenham. I see competition in the EPL getting tougher even for the top ten teams are very competitive. Pochettino certainly won't be easy to bring Chelsea back to the top flight. Currently, the Chelsea squad has also changed a lot, a number of young players who lack experience are more dominant. Even though I don't deny that Pochettino is better than Potter and Lampard, he really has to be able to prove all of that.

Bayern Munich must have a second option if they fail to get Harry Kane, so far there has been no response from Harry Kane to join Bayern and there must be an additional option for Bayern to look for other alternatives if they cannot get Harry Kane. Not easy for signing England player actually they are happy with their domestic league, many of England player spent their career in Primer League and Harry Kane looks not has planning will play in Bundesliga with Byern Munich.

Honestly, not easy reach fees transfer for Harry Kane because Tottenham Hotspur most difficult team by giving expensive transfer fees. Manchester City ever failed reach agreement fees transfer for signing Harry kane last three season and Bayern Munich have give excited offering if want to sign Kane.

Unfortunately, if, Bayern did not get the ideal striker as they hoped. you can be sure, Bayern will find it difficult to compete competitively in the Champions League. there is no choice, but to try to recruit Harry Kane from Spurs. it's just that, the price problem will be an obstacle for Bavaria. like it or not, Bayern must take a persuasive approach to the striker from Spurs. plus, with Levy's side who has always been an obstacle. Bayern, must provide a fair price for him that can be agreed by both parties. well, at least, Kane can fill the vacant position after being left by their striker, Lewandowski.

Meanwhile, Mane and Choupo-Moting are not always reliable. because these two players, often experience goes ups and downs in the game. There are also other players, like Sane, who cannot really be relied on even though in the system implemented by Nagelsmann and Tuchel, they are only shadow strikers, not real centre-forwards. regarding options issue, I'm pretty sure they already have it. it's just that, it seems like the second option or the other is not as ideal as the first option. because, Kane deserves to be considered if we look at his track record when he was with Spurs. but, at least Bayern Munich still has plenty of time while trying to find the ideal option. after all, the new season still has enough time before it is rolled back.
Yes Tuchel must bring in a striker to increase strength in the front lines of Bayern Munich. I think that's the case that Kane is very difficult to bring to Alianz Arena, but rather than spending time waiting for the uncertain, it is time for Bayern management to move to find other alternatives. In my opinion Julian Alvarez deserves to be a consideration because he does not have the main place in Manchester City, but according to the news of Manchester City is still reluctant to release it.

If Alvarez fails, Tuchel can also target other targets to striker Eintracht Frankfurt, Kolo Muani. Bavarian management must be serious about finding attackers because at this time the position has not yet gotten a substitute that is commensurate after Lewandowski left, while Mane appeared failed and was far from expectations.

Harry Kane will obviously improve Manchester United if he moved over there, but it does not mean they will surely win the EPL, i don't think Manchester United as a team can win the EPL next season, they still need at least another season with Erik ten Hag before they'll think of winning the title.

Look at Arsenal, they thought they were on their way to the EPL title last season, but in the most important part of the season, City showed them why they have more experience to handle the pressure of the last few weeks of the season. Right now City are just unstoppable in the Premier League and i can't see any team usurping them.
There have been numerous speculations surrounding Harry Kane's future in recent media reports. Manchester United has shown interest in Kane, but they have stated that if he truly desires a move, he must submit a transfer request to them. On the other hand, the owners of Tottenham seem reluctant to let Kane go to United and believe it would be better for him to join Madrid or Munchen. In my opinion, Kane would be better off joining Munich if he wants regular playing time and the complete trust of the coach. In Madrid, there is a possibility that Kane could become a backup if he fails to demonstrate his best performance in the initial stages. Another significant factor for Kane is that if he moves to Madrid or Munchen, his chances of winning the Champions League title are slightly higher than at Manchester United.

Staying at Tottenham would be futile for Kane as he has never tasted championship success there. With the quality and number of goals he has achieved, I believe it would be best for him to depart from Tottenham.
Yes, now Kane is a point of attention in the transfer market. At present various speculations continue to emerge related to their future. But in my opinion it is time for Kane to immediately leave Tottenham to look for new challenges while feeling the title before retiring from football. Currently it is a fixed time for Kane because at this time he is still able to look mighty. I am sure wherever he will be anchored he will definitely be the mainstay on the front lines.

Manchester United seems to be very interested in Kane and I think the typical of the Spurs striker is very suitable for the style of play at United. If you succeed in getting Kane, the Red Devils will be better prepared to challenge the title from Manchester City. But of course it is not enough for Ten Hag if only Kane is recruited, but he also has to strengthen the back line that also does not yet look completely tough.

However, even though Kane hasn't decided on his future, I hope he will continue to have a career at EPL and it seems that Manchester United is a team that is worthy of considering.

For me, if Hazard still wants to earn big money, then of course the Saudi Professional League would be the league and club for Hazard. But if Hazard doesn't prioritize big money, then playing in Turkey can also be a good choice because yes, at least there are still clubs interested in signing Hazard. Because after all, even though Hazard doesn't have a good record at Real Madrid, but Hazard is still the first choice in the Belgian national team. Therefore, at least Hazard can still play well but yes, maybe it's only limited to lighter leagues or not too difficult like La Liga and other European leagues.
Hazard, who had been a star at Chelsea, experienced a sad period with Madrid. His injury problems have clouded his career and Real Madrid have taken a firm stance against him by terminating his contract early. Now Hazard's fate is still in limbo but I'm sure he will get a new port soon.

With his fitness condition starting to decline I agree that if Hazard should look for a new club in the Saudi Professional League, I think in Saudi he will be able to bring out his best again because the competition there is not as tough as in Europe. Or the former Chelsea star could also revive his career in MLS.

Now maybe a third player who has played for FC Barcelona in the past will join Inter Miami. So if that doesnt bring more fans to the stadium and a successful season, it would be a surprise. It is about Jordi Alba, his contract expires this month and he still has no new club. With 34 years he would play football for a few more years and it looks like he will do that in America with Messi and Busquets. So if all three play together, Inter Miami would have this three in the defense, midfield and a new goalgetter.
Messi, Busquets, and Jordi Alba these three quite close as friends. However, Jordi Alba is not sure where he'll end up next after his contract expires. I wouldn't be surprised if Jordi Alba ends up joining at Miami team. The reason for this is because when the three of them had dinner together, I'd assumed they were going to have an influence on each other and possibly end up at the same club.
It would be a good combination if Jordy Alba decided to move to Inter Miami now only Messi and Busquets have officially joined but it is possible that the former Barcelona trio will return to play together in MLS and of course Inter Miami will have a bigger power if there are them.
They have worked quite well together during their time at Barcelona. I am sure that in the future this club will go even further in terms of performance and now Inter Miami is on the bottom for the western region standings.
Jordi Alba actually still has a contract with Barcelona until 2024. However, both parties have agreed to end the deal prematurely due to the financial problems experienced by the Catalan club.

After his success with Barcelona now he has to look for new challenges, but in my opinion it is better for Alba to follow in the footsteps of Lionel Messi and Sergio Busquets to Inter Miami even though he is also still in demand by other top European teams.

If Alba decides to go to Miami, it will definitely benefit both parties. For Miami, the presence of the former Barcelona trio will clearly raise the prestige of the team and of course they will have an extraordinary impact on the club. I firmly believe that the speculation about Alba's future will end and that he will follow in the footsteps of Messi and Busquets.

Do you remember that it was Al-Hilal who didn't succeed in bringing Messi to the Arab League because Messi preferred to move closer to Club Inter Miami. And at that time Al-Hilal turned his hunt to one of the Man City players, namely Riyad Mahrez. So, I'm curious about the latest news on this one, but I haven't found any updates regarding Al-hilal's offer to bring in Riyad Mahrez. Has anyone read the news regarding news updates about Al-hilal and Riyad Mahrez?
There is no recent news regarding this player, and his contract at Manchester City runs until 2025, but rumors are circulating that he is also interested in joining the Saudi Pro Liga, and seeing how English clubs see an opportunity to sell players who are over 30 years old to the league At this time, it is very likely that soon there will be an update regarding Riyadh Mahrez to the Saudi Pro League.
Chelsea have already managed to sell a number of players here and maybe City will also have success doing the same.

Everything is possible regarding Mahrez. For now he has a contract until 2025 and Manchester City isn't under pressure and has to make a decision. They are closely scrutinizing the transfer market themselves and if they find an opportunity to sign a strong player on Mahrez' position, there will probably be news following very soon because then they could sell him without weakening the team. But as I said time is not against them for now. Mahrez' profile would be another one that fits the SPL activities very well.
I see that Mahrez has quite a chance to join the Saudi Professional League, personally he has reached the highest level in Europe having won the Champions League as well as several titles in the domestic league. Even though the contract is still active until 2025, if you get a suitable offer, Manchester City certainly won't mind letting him go, but with a note that Manchester City also don't lose Bernardo Silva.

I am on same for this right now their first goal is attracted fans and players from the world with their available sources and this is not difficult for them with their huge funds which are available and in last few years we have big changes in Saudi culture as well which is also having big impact on this all as well even we have no challenge for the European leagues but still with their salary system and influence things could be impressive in coming years and for this all their main goal is attracting world for their bid 2030 World Cup.

In first phase they have only Cristiano Ronaldo, and now they are bringing many other stars even we have few rumors about few big names are in their radar after failure of Messi contact, and they can do this all because they have enough power and money in their wallets.

Yes maybe in these 2 seasons the Saudi League attracts attention but remember the Chinese League first did it a few grace ago and now almost all clubs in the league are experiencing financial problems, well this is what I'm worried about the Saudi League because maintaining consistency is certainly not easy. Imagine if more than 20 European top players joined here and they had to prepare all salaries, can they survive?
I don't think finances are a problem because indeed the club owners in the Saudi Professional League really have quite capable wealth. Apart from that, they have succeeded in recruiting a number of world superstars, of course because they are serious about building the football industry by carrying out "Vision 2030" to make the country an attractive place for tourists. The presence of the world's top footballers is expected to be one of the drivers of Saudi Arabia's popularity.


The Public Investment Fund (PIF) is a foundation that manages Saudi Arabia's wealth. Through PIF they build a more advanced football industry project and maybe it will make the Saudi League the best competition in the world. In contrast to the Chinese Super League, whose popularity only lasted temporarily. But I see PIF has a long term target and also they are very strong financially. It's not easy to recruit Cristiano Ronaldo and a number of other world stars, they certainly have thought very carefully when making that decision. I see the Saudi Professional League has a different way to what the Chinese Super League has done.

@shogun47 I believe his arrival signals that De Jong is now available for sale because by doing this they can get solid revenues too and further invest in the squad. Also with this smart signing now I’m keen to see who else will they target because this transfer signals that they’re keen to target winning the champions league now and if they can add more quality player’s then they’ll definitely be a force to reckon in the champions league.

Not likely, De Jong will still be staying at Barcelona even though they recently got the green light to sign Ilkay Gundogan. De Jong is an important player for Xavi, and if Xavi wants to sell a player then I think it's Ansu Fati or Ferran Torres he will sell. I can't say for sure what Barcelona's plans are, but I think some players might be considered for sale so that Barcelona can adjust their finances.

About Frenkie de Jong, I hope he can be kept at Barcelona. He is a good midfielder so far and Xavi may have realized that a long time ago. If Barcelona is forced to sell him, then maybe it is a consequence that they can no longer avoid.
The arrival of Gundogan will of course take its toll, the financial situation is the reason for Barcelona to sell off several players who are considered to have contributed less to the team. But I agree that Frankie De Jong can be maintained even though the midfield has added new energy. Ansu Fati, Torres, Rapinha, Kessie and Garcia might be Xavi's considerations in letting them go and I think these players deserve to leave Camp Nou. But it could be that due to financial conditions, the Blaugrana management will make decisions that are beyond predictions, but I hope they don't make hasty decisions.

Newcastle next season will appear in four competitions and Eddie Howe will have to buy several quality players to strengthen his squad, considering that the Champions League is a competition that promises big prize money and is also the most prestigious league. So Eddie has to plan the best for his team so they can compete in four competitions with the top teams, especially in the Champions League.
and as we know Newcastle turned out to be one of the strongest clubs in the Premier League last season and they have to get a formidable attacker for next season, and Newcastle's club management must have planned for next season and must be a scary team. Because, for their financial problems no doubt.
Yes, I also really hope that Newcastle will make a breakthrough in the transfer market. Newcastle manager, Eddy Howe must not be slow and immediately perform activities and make contact with the target hunting. The Magpies have successfully finished in the top four of the standings this season, but I think this team is still not strong enough and maybe no longer able to repeat success like this season if only relying on the same player.

Then next season is also a very busy season for Newcastle so Howe must really prepare his squad carefully. Back in the Champions League after a 20 -year absence must also be able to be utilized and not just decorate the group phase but must be able to advance to the knockout phase. So for that I really hope that Howe is serious in hunting players and not carelessly, because Newcastle's financial strength is also very supportive.

Since the project now failed in a way it could indeed have consequences in the long run. The players that joined PSG in recent years thought that they will become a part of a project that will dominate the European soccer for many years and frequently win the Champions League with Mbappe, Neymar and Messi, but quite the opposite was the case. When PSG now reaches out to players the only enticement they have in their repertoire now is money. It will all be about the money. There is no Messi anymore and soon there will be no Mbappe. When players now go there it is not because they are playing with the best players in the world, but because they get paid more at PSG than elsewhere.

Football is changing, PSG is not the only club where they can pay more, and you are right now it is clear that the team is going through a stage when players are disillusioned with the club and are trying to find another place where they can realize their goals. Perhaps in the off-season, PSG will once again bring together star players, but they have done it so many times and now it's all over again, it doesn't look like it can bring them the desired result.
In fact, not only high fees are a priority for players to be able to join the club, but the management and road map are also other reasons that are also considered by the players. I certainly don't doubt the financial side of PSG, they are one of the richest teams in the world, but I see that there is another side that makes PSG's achievements look stagnant.

I see that the management side of PSG must be completely overhauled because they are not able to work optimally. They should be able to learn from Manchester City, who built their squad and targets very neatly. That is, when PSG were able to bring in Messi and collaborate with Mbappe and Neymar but they were not supported by a coach who had equal experience, PSG management should not have Galtier as a coach to handle them. I think the result of the lack of clarity in managing the team has made players uncomfortable living in Paris and reluctant to extend their contracts. So I really hope that the owners of PSG will evaluate all of their management so that Les Parisens can realize their dream in the Champions League.

It was a really solid season for Inter. Maybe there was no Serie A title at the end but winning that title too would be a big extra for them. Because they already won the Coppa Italia and Supercoppa Italiana titles. Moreover they had a dream run in the Champions League to the final round. Maybe they couldn't win that title as well but it was still a big success for the players and Inzaghi.

From now on I can say that Inzaghi can really be the right manager for Inter and they should hold onto him. But next season the supporters would expect them to be more competitive for the Serie A title for sure. They didn't end this season at a bad position though by qualifying for the Champions League as well. But they need to be in a title race too.
I really appreciate the performance of the Inter Milan squad this season. I think Inzaghi has been able to make a bit of progress for the Nerazzurri compared to last season. Thanks to his outstanding performances he remains comfortable in the coaching chair and he will continue to have the mandate of the Inter bosses. But unfortunately Inzaghi cannot be so flexible in building a new squad for next season because Inter's finances have not recovered too much. But I'm sure that if Inzaghi manages to maintain 80% of the current squad and add a few new players, then Inter will be a serious challenger to win the Scudetto next season.

I agree with you. Vini is a really good player. But I also don't think Vini has the ability to score more than 30 goals in a season. Vini has played very well this season. However, he scored only 10 goals in 33 La Liga matches. Vini is not a regular scorer like Benzema and Ronaldo. Real Madrid needs a replacement for Benzema, who can score a lot of goals. Mbappe or Harry Kane could be a suitable replacement for Benzema. These two players have the ability to score a lot of goals. And their fit is very good.
Yes, Vinicius Junior is not fully reliable to replace the role of Benzema. Vini's position and play style are different and he is more comfortable playing as a wing attacker. Real Madrid still have to find a single sticker. Harry Kane, Firmino, Havertz and Osimhen are suitable substitutes to fill the position left by Benzema. But so far there has been no issue from El Real about who will be their hunting target. I think Ancelotti must immediately get a sticker without having to wait until the transfer window closure time.

Mbappe is currently one of PSG's most important players. PSG fielded a formidable team with Messi, Neymar, Mbappe, but in the end could not sustain the combination of the trio. Lionel Messi has already left PSG, maybe Neymar will leave PSG before the end of this season, leaving only Mbappe, but some news about Mbappe leaving the club is also being published. But so far no confirmed news has come from PSG or Mbappe. If Mbappe leaves the PSG club, we do not see any confirmed news about where his next destination could be. However, Real Madrid is definitely interested in taking Mbappe from PSG. If Mbappe does a deal with Real Madrid then we will see a good sign in the transfer market.
The transfer situation is growing and it is very interesting to follow, especially those related to Real Madrid, PSG, Man United and Spurs. Now Real Madrid really want Mbappé's services but PSG don't want to sell him to them, whereas Man United want Harry Kane but Spurs don't want to sell him to them.

Both players also only have a year remaining on their contracts with low chances of renewing leaving PSG and Spurs to find some cash. Imo, I can see PSG offering Mbappé to Man United and Spurs offering Harry Kane to Real Madrid but of course it's up to the players to choose which team they feel comfortable with, not to mention Real Madrid have spent a fortune on Bellingham while Man United need a takeover to finish first. But I'm interested in Mbappe's transfer. Maybe he didn't renew his contract with PSG because this season saw Haaland's success with Man City, of course this is a strong barlon d'or candidate, so this has really awakened Mbappe to leave PSG.
It's quite interesting to see the speculation regarding the upcoming transfer market. Moreover, a number of world stars began to be associated with big clubs. Currently there is much talk about the future of Mbappe and Kane, these two players have always been the concern of many parties regarding their future plans. I see the future Mbappe will continue with PSG until his contract expires and for now it is very difficult for any club to redeem him. However, when it comes to his desire to be able to match Haaland's achievements, I predict he will prefer Real Madrid over any other team.

As for Harry Kane, he should have asked Spurs to sell him immediately. Currently, Kane is becoming a bone of contention in the transfer market and the price may still be quite expensive. Spurs owners must see this opportunity if they want to increase their financial coffers and maybe they can use them to buy other players at low prices. I think it doesn't matter if Kane prefers Manchester United, but if Kane wants to taste the title then Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are the right ports to realize his dream.
