Mason Greenwood's future at Manchester United is increasingly full of question marks and the club is considering the best options for the player before the EPL starts on the 14th of August. Some time ago, Mason Greenwood wanted to be loaned to Atalanta for a season, but seeing the developments in the news, until now there has been no common ground, making him have to accept an important decision in that time. Actually Mason Greenwood is still pretty good even though he had experienced a case that got him in trouble and had to undergo punishment. But in this case, Erik ten hag also doesn't want to make too many decisions and he prefers to leave this matter to the club. Even Erik ten hag would not take any responsibility for the situation.

From the first pre-season game to today's match against Barcelona, it was clear that Real Madrid wanted to emphasize the 4-4-2 diamond formation and indeed this formation went very well against Manchester United or AC Milan. But the problem is that when using this formation, Real Madrid still couldn't beat Barcelona in today's pre-season match and they couldn't even reply to the 3 goals scored by Barcelona players. I think Ancelotti is indeed experimenting with his current squad and the question is why from the start he didn't try Joselu as the main striker using a 4-3-3 formation, even though they have a striker who is ready at any time. We know that in the previous game Vini could not move freely because he was always stopped by the Barcelona defense. On the other hand, finishing was the main focus in this match because there were 6 shots that hit the crossbar. Barcelona is Real Madrid's only obstacle to winning the La Liga title next season and if they don't find that loophole soon, it is certain that Barcelona will become the reigning champions.
Carlos Anceloti uses the same formation he used for Manchester United and AC Milan to play against Barcelona, but I think Barcelona were well prepared to play and win because we all know that it is always a derby match between the two sides. After Arsenal defeated Barcelona, Xavi took to social media to say that they did not expect the intensity the Arsenal squad used for them as they were preparing for just a friendly match; maybe that is why they take the match against Real Madrid very seriously. Real Madrid still needs a reliable striker to keep them more competitive because they have good midfielders that can create good chances for the team. That’s why they insisted on signing Mbappe because they know he is good at finishing even though he is not a natural striker.I think if they go on with this team in the coming season, they will likely suffer in terms of goal scoring since Vinicius is not reliable in terms of goals. That's right, I think Xavi said that because he only wanted to focus on the El Clasico pre-season match against Real Madrid and it was proven that Barcelona was able to embarrass Real Madrid with this quite a crushing defeat. The intensity of these two teams really knows no place and wherever they are as long as they are still on the same field, the pride of a team will be highly respected by them. On the other hand, it is very clear that Real Madrid needs a striker with a mature finish and that is indeed the closest choice to Mbappe and I think there is no more time for Real Madrid. If they really want to beat every team in La Liga and win the title. But if Real Madrid persist in hoping for Vini's sometimes erratic performance, then they will lose the title again. |

Kylian Mbappe at the end of his contract will receive a loyalty bonus of 80 million euros and today it is reported that Kylian Mbappe will receive half of his loyalty clause with PSG of 40 million euros. That means PSG has to provide quite a lot of money because the renewal of his contract with Mbappe requires him to guarantee this bonus.
I think saying he wants to stay this far means PSG have to spend that money and indeed this is one of the advantages why Mbappe doesn't want to leave PSG before his contract expires. Of course PSG is quite annoyed with this and on the other hand they also made such an agreement. It seems that PSG are no longer comfortable with Mbappe's behavior and want to sell him as soon as possible before Ligue 1 starts in 12 days.

Defense is one of the things that Chelsea must improve next season and they have reached an agreement with Axel Disasi from AS Monaco. It is reported that the contract duration is 5 years with a total cost of 45 million euros and this will be a new strength for Chelsea to be able to correct last season's mistakes which often lost the ball in the defensive area which made them often lose. Axel Disasi will also replace Wesley Fofana who was injured some time ago. We'll see how Chelsea will be under Pochettino's leadership later and hope they can do their best.
That's a good one. He is still 19 years old. His performance with monaco is very consistent. I do like he he has a very good positioning in stopping its opponent through making a good and accurate tackle toward its opponent. He reminds me with thiago silva. I hope he will be able to learn a lot from thiago silva. Silva is a great defender and he will be teaching a lot of his experiences to the young player like him. It's likely that if chelsea still needs midfielder. The deal with caicedo may not be completed and my prediction if chelsea gonna shift to another alternative midfielder. A great sign by chelsea. it doesn't waste a lot of money to get a player. It's good to add him to the club. Chelsea needs a lot of young talented player like him. After clearing out their players this summer, we can see that currently Chelsea wants to build a squad of young players. If I'm not mistaken, the average Chelsea player is around the age of 20 and that is the same main squad age as the academy squad. I think Pochettino is very confident in his ability to provide his strategy for this young squad and still the veteran player Thiago Silva will give his advice before he leaves Chelsea later. Moise Caciedo is like Declan Rice, he is too overpriced and Chelsea shouldn't be spending money like last winter for just one player and if you look at the current management they are much more organized by bringing in young players who have more potential. |

If anyone is actually thinking that Liverpool might be able to get Mbappé in the team, I think they are just too naive. There is no way Mbappé is going to Liverpool. And there is no way PSG is going to let Mbappé go for only a 100 million. Real Madrid is the only actual destination for Mbappé in my opinion. Oh and there is no way psg is actually going to let him go for anything less than 180. When someone like Harry Kane is actually going to be sold for 180 million I think PSG is not wrong for asking you that much money for Mbappé.
That's right, when I heard rumors that Liverpool were interested in signing Mbappe at that moment I started laughing quite loudly. I think that from a financial point of view Liverpool will not be able to reach Mbappe's price which is above 100 million euros and even that seems to be forcing it. However, even if Liverpool have that much money, it is not certain that Mbappe will accept his offer, considering that he will only be interested in Real Madrid. So yes, I think this news feels like entertainment and doesn't need to be taken too seriously. In the end, Liverpool will still provide quite an interesting fight in the EPL next season with their current recruits. |

There are about 2 weeks left for all clubs to prepare before their first match. Paris Saint Germain have always occupied a prime spot in this title race, although with their current situation it hasn't stopped them from moving from their rightful place.
The question is for other clubs, there is always the inconsistency looming over the clubs that will be the competitors of Paris Saint Germain. Like last season for example, they could have become champions taking advantage of Paris Siant Germain's instability, but they couldn't because they slipped up many times.
At this moment PSG still doesn't look promising because maybe, the situation and condition of the team is not entirely good. Although indeed, PSG already has a new coach who has good quality and also, Mbappe is still in the PSG squad. But it seems that Enrique's ability to make PSG consistent also doesn't look promising if I consider the results they got in this pre-season game. So yes, I personally think that because Ligue 1 is a tough competition, it seems that PSG will also find it difficult to get consistently good results next season. Therefore, it seems that there will be other clubs who might be able to take advantage of this situation to be at the top of the standings next season. It's true that PSG haven't been able to achieve good results, especially through this pre-season game they have had quite a hard time finding a good rhythm of play so they often get unsatisfactory results and as coach Luis Enrique has a big responsibility to bring this team to the peak of its performance. Of course, if we look at the current situation, there are so many gaps that have been created due to player problems that have had a significant effect on the club and momentum like this is very rare for PSG. Other teams could take advantage of this and I agree with you, it's only a matter of time before things can get even more messed up if this isn't fixed soon |

 Sadio Mane is one step away from officially becoming an Al-Nassr player and a medical test will be carried out on Monday night, as reported by Fabrizio Romano. I think Sadio Mane has really made his choice to join a Saudi league team and this will make Al-Nassr's attack line even sharper next season. His duet with Cristiano Ronaldo is the most awaited thing and it is hoped that Al-Nassr can return to the Saudi league championship after last season they failed to compete with Al-Ittihad. My prediction is that if Sadio Mane gives his best performance he will score more than 15 goals next season. Congratulations on Saido Mane new career journey, the SPL top scorer competition next season will be even tougher in the SPL. Reportedly Liverpool did not get a bonus of 7.5 million due to Mane departure from Bayern Munchen, because Mane could not show good performance in the Bundesliga. On the other hand, Mane presence can shift Abdulrahman Ghareeb position in the main squad, now Al Nassr has four players in the left wing position. But it could be a good option for their coach in rotating players. It's quite unfortunate if Liverpool don't get this bonus, considering that Sadio Mane hasn't really contributed much to Bayern Munich and with Sadio Mane joining Al-Nassr, the party that actually benefits is Bayern Munich. Maybe no one thought that Sadio Mane's future would end quickly in Europe and even though in the end he joined the Saudi league, he was still able to give his best for the sport he loves most. Regarding player rotation, it must be done and there are always players who become victims, but in my opinion it doesn't matter because the goal of the Saudi league is to become one of the top leagues one day. |

Why should Dortmund continue to buy players, because if Dortmund have got players to put in the positions left behind, and Dortmund still have money in hand then it is indeed their business. After all, whatever kind of players are in the Dortmund squad, in fact when the season starts later, of course Dortmund will still be the shadow of Bayern Munich in the upper zone in the Bundesliga standings. So yes, I personally don't really care what kind of players Dortmund have each season because in the end Dortmund will be able to sell the players they have at a higher price.
That's right, Dortmund is a smart club and regardless of how many players they want to buy, they will still be able to manage well. I don't think anyone is surprised by Dortmund's cunning and they have been very consistent throughout season and season to continue to make money from the players they have developed so well in the team. Maybe the problem is that Dortmund will not be able to win the bundesliga title and that is their harsh reality every season. In addition, Dortmund is the best star player producing team so far. |

Previously, Manchester City managed to get consecutive wins in two pre-season games and today, in the third match of the pre-season, they had to lose against Atletico Madrid with a score of 1-2. Actually I didn't watch this match, but if I look at the match statistics, both teams performed the same as their main squad and in the second half all the players were replaced by second-tier players. But it seems that in this match Atletico Madrid can slightly outperform Manchester City and this narrow defeat isn't too bad either.
Not that bad because Atletico Madrid use all of their best eleven players, while Manchester City still not use their best eleven players, especially Alvarez was always being a super subs and now he forced to replace Kevin De Bruyne's position. He also playing for full time, he's not yet comfortable to play so that long. However what we can see in Manchester City's three friendly matches is Kovacic can't replace Gundongan's position. Naturally, if Alvarez took De Bruyne's position even though it was not his original position. I think Pep Guardiola is trying something new and with this result he will definitely evaluate all the players' performance, including giving an optional position when needed in the team. Maybe Kovacic still needs to adapt to his colleagues and does need time to replace the important role that has been left by Gundogan. Of course, Manchester City doesn't want to be like last season, which had bad results in the midst of competition with Arsenal, and they are very good at fixing the problem so they can win the EPL title again. |

Barcelona are possibly improving in all areas they could, it's a good development for the players and the coach. They have been really serious in the last two seasons, and if they continue to keep the team competitive like this, one day they would see themselves lifting the UEFA Champions League trophy and a beautiful smiles on their faces. Perhaps there's always good results for those that are hardworking, Xavi Hernandez doing what he does best, fixing the club again and rebuilding new players to rapidly adapts to the club's pattern of game.
It's been 7 seasons that Barcelona haven't won the Champions League title again and maybe indeed a few seasons ago could be a strong reason for them to carry out a transition period so they can get closer to winning the Champions League title later. I think what Xavi has done as a coach is quite good even though the previous two seasons he still got a red report card because he failed in the Champions League and went down to the European league. They have to start again in the champions league next season and make sure they can qualify for a higher stage than before. If Barcelona can qualify for the semifinals next season, I think it can be a good achievement so that next season they can be closer to the championship ladder. |

After UEFA banned and punished Juventus I think Fiorentina and Ac Milan are both taking good advantages because we know if Juventus didn't lose points Ac Milan couldn't be in the champions league and if Juventosare had not been banned from the UEFA Europa Conference League this season, Fiorentina couldn't be in this tournament.
That's right, I never thought something like this would happen, indirectly for two different seasons both Milan and Fiorentina both took advantage of the bad luck experienced by Juventus. Maybe for Juventus this is like a heavy blow that they have to accept and of course they are very frustrated at this time because they have lost a place in European competition. Now what they tried last season or next season feels in vain and priceless. However, I hope that, as one of the big teams, Juventus will show their mental strength during this period of time and I also hope that they can return to normal without the polemic that has always plagued them. What they do next season feels in vain? I don't know what you are talking about, but do you think that Juventus really cares about getting excluded from the Conference League? I believe they are even ok with it so they don't have to travel to places that they have hardly ever heard about before. I know this is an exaggeration, but the Conference League is neither worth their time nor their money. Their focus will 100% be to win Serie A, go back into the Champions League the season after and then start over from there. The punishment has already taken place and that was the point deduction, which disqualified them essentially from the Europa League and the Champions League and now the UEFA had no choice but to act. They had to do something in the face of the allegations that have been confirmed by the highest Italian court. Broadly speaking, it is true that Juventus do not need a conference league competition, but for a mediocre club it is very important to be able to compete in one of the European competitions. Moreover, the thing that made Juventus banned from the competition due to problems that have been recurring since last season, is that really appropriate to be compared with their indifference to the conference league competition? I think all clubs will respect wherever they are and will not rule out whether they are a big club or a small club. Here what I mean is the professional attitude of a team and if they can't do that then it's better that the opportunity be given to a team worthy of replacing. I understand that Juventus' focus is on winning Serie A and being able to return to the Champions League, but before they pursue that, they have to fix the existing problems so that in the middle of the competition they don't experience the same incident and harm many parties from the coaches, staff, and also the players who been trying really hard. |

I think Pep Guardiola will not worry too much about this because on August 6 they have to focus on the Community Shield final against Arsenal. If manchester city can win this title then they will get 4 trophies before the 23/24 competition starts.

 PSG announced its seventh signing, namely Arnau Tenas from Barcelona. He was brought in as a free agent and his contract runs until 2026 and it looks like he will be a back-up to Gianluigi Donnaruma. We know a veteran goalkeeper like Keylor Navas is likely to leave or retire soon considering he is already 36 years old, so PSG must bring in a goalkeeper who is much younger and the choice is right by choosing Arnau Tenas who is still 22 years old. It looks like PSG are working very hard this summer and they will continue to bring in more players before the market closes. |

 The rumors that have been waiting for some time have finally been answered and Atalanta have reached an agreement for Rasmus Hojlund to join Manchester United. All costs around 70 million euros with add ons and this is the most awaited transfer by coach Erik ten Hag to strengthen the position of the Red Devils striker next season. The fans are certainly very enthusiastic about this news and it seems that now Manchester United is no longer bothered about matters of the main striker in the squad. With the arrival of Rasmus Hojlund, Marcus Rashford has returned to his starting position, namely the left wing and of course this will be much more optimal. The duration of Rasmus Hojlund's contract is for the next 5 years and this is a long journey for him at one of the biggest clubs in Europe. It’s a lot of money for a guy with 9 goals in a top 5 European League. He could turn out to be brilliant but I think it’s a very, very high price for potential. It’s not his fault, he doesn’t dictate transfer fees, it’s just a reflection of how distorted the current transfer market is I guess, crazy. I agree and maybe he is one of the overpriced players this summer. We know very well that since last winter's transfer everything felt unreasonable, it was all started by Chelsea who always bought players at unreasonable prices because they didn't want to lose out in competition with other teams. That seems to have had such a big impact on the transfer market that some mediocre teams have sold their key players at exorbitant prices and this has resulted in a tradition that continues today. Rasmus Hojlund is indeed the most targeted target by Manchester United this summer and that makes them have to do anything to get this player, including at an unusual cost. It seems that Erik ten Hag wants to make Rasmus Hojlund like Erling Haaland in Manchester City, considering that these two players are almost similar in height, speed, and also blonde hair.  |

 After failing to make his debut in the first game of pre-season due to discomfort in one of his legs, it is now reported that Arda Guler has returned to Madrid to make a quicker recovery and the diagnosis says that he has a meniscus injury. Maybe no one thought that Arda Guler had to deal with injuries early and even though he was scheduled to play against Juventus in the pre-season match later. But it looks like the player's health comes first and he will therefore have to leave the pre-season camp early. Well, we hope for the best for the recovery of this talented wonderkid from Turkey and in the early matches of the La Liga season he will be able to start playing again. I don't think that Arda Guler is under any pressure to deliver top football performances for Real Madrid at the moment and despite all the pressure from fans of the club, he'll still be allowed and cared for to heal from his injury. Reports has it that he's left Real Madrid's preseason squad and has gone back to the Spanish capital to get treated If we look at his very young age, it seems that he is too ambitious and very passionate about training with Real Madrid but he forgets to predict that things like injuries will also be very bad for his career. I think he needs to be more careful going forward so that the same thing doesn't happen again and maybe he needs to pay attention to the intensity of his training. I understand his desire to show his quality and to be able to compete with other players for a starting place but it's too early, he better think about how to bring the team to victory when the coach needs his skills. Other than that, I don't think there's anything more to say and hope he can get back to adapting to his team-mates before the first La Liga game starts in 13 days. |

Currently, Bayern Munich is focused on bringing in David Raya from Brentford and this news has been confirmed by Fabrizio Romano. Actually David Raya is a good goalkeeper and he is the main goalkeeper for the Spanish national team so indeed for the successor to the Bayern Munich goalkeeper it is very appropriate. Meanwhile, Yann Sommer is getting closer to joining Inter and it seems that being brought in last winter has not made his position so comfortable at Bayern Munich. I think Yann Sommer's age, who is also starting to age, cannot be a top goalkeeper priority at Bayern Munich, so Bayern Munich needs a goalkeeper who is mature in terms of his age and the choice is very right for David Raya. Let's see how these two keepers develop in the future for Bayern Munich. Source: https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1685314085833908225Bayern Munich is trying to find an alternative if Yann Sommer reaches an agreement to join Inter Milan. However, there is no guarantee as the main goalkeeper to replace Manuel Neuer, its seems little difficult for Bayern Munich to get David Raya's sign. I don't think with regular position for David Raya after Manuel Neuer back from injury and actually he will be first choose for Bayern Munich, David Raya have decision to get more minutes playing and he want be part of Spanish national teams squad. Bayern Munich linked with not only David Raya but also Manchester United goal keeper former David De Gea rumor will join with Bayern Munich after leaving Manchester United with free agent. Indeed, it would be quite risky if David Raya joined Bayern Munich, he would lose playing minutes and that could reduce his performance if he was not often given a starting place. But I think even if Manuel Neuer re-fills the position as Bayern Munich's main goalkeeper at least he can last another season before finally leaving or retiring. So in my opinion as long as David Raya can adapt and be a little patient then he will get a place to be the number 1 guard at Bayern Munich. On the other hand, some time ago Bayern Munich was also linked with David De Gea, but it seems that if we look at reports from Fabrizio Romano, Bayern Munich actually want David Raya more than David De Gea. |

 One of Manchester City's mainstay defenders, Nathan Ake, has officially extended his contract until 2027. He has been an important figure in helping Manchester City's defense so far and since being brought in from Bournemouth in 2020, he has played 81 matches with Manchester City in all competitions. Of course Pep Guardiola is very happy with the survival of his flagship player in Manchester City even longer and as long as there is a great trio of defenders like Nathan Ake, Manuel Akanji and Ruben Dias then Manchester City's defense will remain strong in the coming seasons. |
