Indeed, Osimhen is a suitable player to replace Benzema, he has a tall stature as a striker, runs fast and his finishing is also extraordinary. But I think Napoli will also consider a very high fee if Real Madrid are interested in bringing him to the Santiago Bernabeu. Hazard's transfer was indeed a failure, even though he was very successful at Chelsea, but Real Madrid only got the dregs and he often spent his time on the bench due to an injury which ultimately reduced his performance. Even though they are already at an old age, it is likely that Kroos and Modric will still fill the starting line-up until next season while they give direction to other young players such as Tchouameni, Camavinga, Ceballos, Valverde.

Dortmund has always been able to bring in young talents every season, this team is like an academy for other big European teams to continue to produce prospective star players and this is evident from several names such as Dembele who has now joined Barcelona, then there is Erling Haaland the goal-scoring monster who has now joined manchester city and finally there is Bellingham who is reportedly now getting closer to Real Madrid.

Regardless of these names, Dortmund can still compete in the bundesliga, especially with Bayern Munich in almost every season. I think if Dortmund didn't sell these players maybe they would also be able to dominate the bundesliga or other competitions, it's just that sometimes clubs also need income so that they have better facilities and adequate club finances.

The news of Modric's recovery from injury will certainly make the fans much calmer because Modric's role is still very important to stabilize the midfield. Real Madrid had experienced a bad trend in the domestic league before they finally won the CDR championship and also arrived in the semifinals of the champions league against manchester city. Ancelotti must provide a good strategy and composition in this match so that they win first at home. As usual I don't expect Real Madrid to score first, I hope Manchester City will do it, so we will be able to see an exciting match in this first leg.

But the latest news regarding the injury is still being experienced by Dani Ceballos, we know he injured his thigh during warm-up training against Osasusa in the CDR final last week and now it looks like he is still in doubt to appear for Real Madrid, even though his role is only as a backup sometimes for Dani Ceballos can be the key to Real Madrid's victory through assists or goals.

Nottingham against Southampton was a very exciting match yesterday and both teams put in an extraordinary performance by scoring goals to earn the win. It's just that the host Nottingham came out victorious with a score of 4-3. Actually Nottingham had definitely won the match since the first half because they were already ahead with a score of 3-1, but in the second half Nottingham's defense was a little loose and they had to be willing to concede 2 more goals through a goal scored by Lyanco and also a goal from the spot scored by Prowse in the minutes before the end of the match.

This result allows Nottingham to escape from the relegation zone and their next opponent is Chelsea, I think even though Chelsea has just won the previous game after a series of defeats, Nottingham still has a chance through the match against Chelsea later and secures an additional 3 points because I'm still quite doubtful whether chelsea can win again or not.

It really feels strange if we look at the odds for Juventus which are @ 1.79 and for Sevilla with odds @ 4.80 the comparison is very far away. Even though this is a semifinal match, at least I think the odds will be quite even regardless of each team's performance so far. We also understand that Sevilla qualified for the semifinals due to luck and therefore they have a large number of odds because they are not the favorite team to win. The chance for Juventus to win first at home is what they have to achieve and if they fail it will be very difficult for them to beat Sevilla in the second leg later. But I'm also pretty sure about Juventus' current defense, it's just that if they make a blunder it will be a loss.

I think maybe PSG are also a little annoyed because Messi has been offered a contract extension, but he is still confused and considering this until in the end he doesn't want to extend his contract with PSG. Therefore PSG is quite disappointed with what Messi is doing even though he is a star player.

Lifting the suspension, of course, PSG also wants to ask Messi for help to win the Ligue 1 title this season and if PSG insists on maintaining the suspension then they will suffer losses in the remaining matches this season. Maybe Messi's presence at training was only to quell the anger of the Parisian public because we know very well that even if Messi has already apologized, PSG must also be more open-minded and not want bad speculation regarding the previous problem.

Actually Bernardo Silva is still very good to strengthen Manchester City next season, it's just that there is still no news regarding the renewal of his contract extension. On the other hand, rumors of Barcelona or PSG being interested in signing him are pretty good for his career and I think he will leave Manchester City if the negotiations match his current transfer fee, we know Bernardo Silva has a market value of 80 million euros and that's not a fair price. cheap. Maybe instead of going to Barcelona, I think PSG have a bigger chance to bring him because Messi is confirmed to be leaving PSG this summer and he can be a replacement that is quite commensurate with Messi.

Even though Roma are in poor form in the domestic league, they are actually very good for European competition. What's more, they won the conference league last season and that is indeed proof that they have a winning mentality for this competition. But both the conference league and the europa league are not so different, I think Roma will still be one of the favorites to win the euro league this season.

The thing that needs to be considered is how Mourinho will bring this team to be able to beat Leverkusen and that is quite a tough task because Leverkusen dominate all the competitions they actively participate in with various wins. I will definitely be looking forward to the start of the meeting between these two teams in the first leg and as hosts Roma's task is to score a lot of goals and also win this semi-final match.

Indeed, we have known this for years and sometimes I also feel bored if it is Bayern Muchen who continues to win, at least this season is quite different with not much difference in points which makes it possible for Dortmund to catch up with Bayern Munich at the top of the standings again. There are not many remaining matches and both teams must fully focus on the bundeliga because they have not participated in any competition.

Regarding Bayern Munich's opponent, Leipzig is indeed one of the strong teams in the top 4 and Bayern Munich could have lost this match because of course Leipzig also wants to secure its place to be able to participate again in the Champions League next season. Dortmund seems to have luck because Bayern Munich will be against Leipzig and I hope Dortmund will not waste this to continue to win. Becoming the bundesliga champion this season can also be the most beautiful gift for Belligham because many sources have said that next season Bellingham will join Real Madrid.

Look who returned to training with PSG today, it's true that Lionel Messi caused a scene last week because PSG did not give permission to travel to Saudi Arabia. But yesterday Messi also apologized to the club and his colleagues regarding this matter and it seems that PSG accepted Messi's apology. Finally we can see Messi training again with the PSG main squad and ready to be part of continuing the next match. Regarding the two-week suspension sanction, it seems PSG has lifted it and they don't want to make the problem even longer.

The nickname of the king of comebacks is indeed very appropriate for Real Madrid and currently only Real Madrid is capable of doing this in Europe's highest competition. Opponents are always overwhelmed when facing Real Madrid, especially English teams like Chelsea and Liverpool have repeatedly become victims. But Manchester City also experienced the same thing last season and I think if they don't learn from their mistakes then they will be sent back to England by Real Madrid.

The composition of Real Madrid is almost always the same every season and there are only a few regenerations, but overall this team still has a winning mentality that not all teams around the world have and it seems that the legacy of the seniors who have previously left Real Madrid has always left an imprint on their minds. the entire Real Madrid squad. Manchester city this time must be more vigilant and not let their guard down if they want to take revenge. Apart from all that, I really believe and support Real Madrid to be able to beat Manchester City again.

Because last week there were no La Liga matches, the standings board did not change. But this week all matches will start as usual again. The thing that interested me quite a bit were several teams in positions 14 to 18 in the standings. It is clear that the difference in points between the several teams is only 1 to 2 points and it is certain that this week there will be significant changes for the bottom teams.

There are Almeria, Cadiz, Valladolid, Valencia and Getafe, all of whom are still struggling so that next season they can still play in La Liga. It's really interesting to see the competition between these teams, but the only team that worries me a lot is Valencia, they are having a bad season and they could be relegated if there is no improvement for the rest of the season.

The absence of several Manchester United players is not an excuse, they are facing West Ham, whose position is at the bottom of the board and this should be a game that is easy enough to win, but it seems that the Red Devils can't do anything. Manchester United are very bad at finishing and it can be seen that they shot off the target 10 times, that is the same as wasting opportunities for nothing. The only mistake the Red Devils made in this match was De Gea's failure to ward off Behrahma's shot, which kept the ball going into the goal net.

The next match is against Wolves, for sure Erik ten hag will target a full point victory and it seems that Wolves are also not an easy opponent to beat, moreover they have just beaten one of the teams that is on fire this season Aston Villa with a narrow score. I think Manchester United should not underestimate Wolves, if they let their guard down then Wolves will steal points at Old Trafford.

Al-Nassr is still looking for another victory and this time their opponent will be Al-Khaleej. At the initial meeting, Al-Nassr managed to beat Al-Khaleej with a narrow score away from home. The difference between these two teams is very far and almost unequal, if we look at the standings Al-Khaleej is closer to the relegation zone, while Al-Nassr is in 2nd place in the standings.

Al-Nassr still needs an additional 3 points to be able to shift Al-Ittihad's position and if in this match they win then Al-Nassr will top the standings with the same points as Al-Ittihad, only the difference in goal difference. Cristiano Ronaldo will still be the foundation for scoring goals on the front lines and I hope he can bring Al-Nassr to another win like the previous game against Al-Raed.

Talking about Sampdoria, this team has been far from good during this season and unlike previous seasons they have always been able to compete in the mid-table. But since last season they have only been able to finish 15th in the standings and that indicates the same result this season and even worse by being at the bottom of the standings. It seems that Udinese are lucky enough to be able to face Sampdoria next week and this result is almost certain that Udinese will beat Sampdoria.

Perhaps the thing that Sampdoria should regret is that they have not been able to get back up since the start of the season and it seems they also couldn't do anything when the other teams started to improve to get a better position. Let's take an example like Sassuolo, Salernitana and Empoli, all three of them are able to be in a zone far enough from relegation, I think Sampdoria should be better prepared to start next season in Serie B if they lose to Udinese. I will not bet on this match because the opportunities for each team are still open to get better results and it is very difficult to predict when one team must determine its fate through this match.

Yes, it's true that Atletico were able to get up after they had quite a hard time at the start of the season and now they occupy the second position in the standings previously occupied by their city rivals, namely Real Madrid. As coach Diego Simeone is still the best choice for Atletico and in fact he has served for many years with Atletico until now.

In fact, I have never heard of rumors that there will be a replacement for Simione if he doesn't give the best results for Atletico and it seems that Atletico's owners believe in the progress given by Simione. Now they only need to maintain their current position and continue to win so that Real Madrid cannot shift them back.

Manchester united returned to its worst form after narrowly losing to host West Ham. Even though in their previous match they also lost against Brighton and indirectly they lost 6 points in these two matches. Manchester United lost the opportunity to shift Newcastle in 3rd place in the standings, even though previously Arsenal had helped Manchester United by beating Newcastle, but it seems that Manchester United were out of luck and had to be strong enough to accept the defeat.

Now the race for the top 4 positions in the standings is getting hotter because Liverpool's chances are very open to occupy the position of Manchester United and I think this will be an exciting battle between these two rivals, of course whoever loses next week will be at a huge disadvantage.

Not only Bellingham, but Adeyemi also successfully contributed in the same way in this match and it seems that it is not only Bellingham who will leave Dortmund later, but of course there will also be several European teams who will be interested in recruiting Adeyemi with such extraordinary performance.

Dortmund continues to chase Bayern Munich in the standings and they will not give up because there is still time to close this season with good results, especially if winning the Bundesliga title is a dream that has been awaited for so long after the last time being the Bundesliga champion in the 2011/2012 season and it's been almost 10 years and Dortmund haven't won this title again.

The latest news regarding rumors that PSG are interested in bringing in Mourinho as the new coach. Maybe PSG are still dissatisfied with the inconsistent results this season and sometimes PSG have lost in important matches to determine the Ligue 1 title. Galtier seems unable to live up to the expectations of PSG officials and it seems that if PSG manages to get Mourinho this time, then Galtier would be fired soon after the end of the season. But Mourinho also seems happy in Rome, he still has an important task to help Roma win the European league title and also to get the top 4 positions in Serie A. What do you think? is Mourinho the right coach for PSG?

It seems that this time Roma will appear with a full squad and the return of Dybala, Wijnaldum and Bellotti could pose a threat to the Leverkusen defence. Dybala's role is especially needed in important matches like this and I think he will do a good job of opening up the space for his teammates to create chances against Leverkusen. We know Dybala is also an intelligent player and often finds the ideal position to score goals and of course Mourinho is very pleased with Dybala's return. On the other hand, Leverkusen may be a consistent team so far and for sure there will always be gaps in even the strongest team.
