It is always difficult to determine who will win the Champions League title, especially when the season has not started. Manchester City certainly have a chance to repeat their success, but to defend the Champions League title then I think it is the most difficult challenge for any coach. Pep Guardiola is expected to keep his chances good, but all the teams that will be competing in the Champions League will also be pushing for the title.
Manchester City is an exemplary club, their performance is incredible and replicating this action in the following campaign, with an eye on the UEFA Champions League, would be extremely difficult for them. Real Madrid was the only team capable of winning the UEFA Champions League three times in a row, indicating gratitude and accomplishment at Santiago Bernabeu. They made it appear to be simple and while some football fans thought their victory was manipulated, I thought it was hard efforts from the coach and the players. Pep Guardiola wants to win the Champions League again, but it's impossible since other clubs aren't giving up and are giving their all in the league.
Guardiola wants to win the Champions League again. And I would say that Manchester City will remain at the top of the favorites for the Champions League title next season as well. Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester City, United teams can be considered favorites for next season's Champions League. And among all these teams, Manchester City team can be said to be stable.
Bayern Munich are trying their best to strengthen their squad. And they are bringing in Harry Kane to strengthen the attack. Manchester United team is also spending a lot of money to strengthen the team. But whether they will be able to perform consistently in the next season is yet to be said for sure. But winning the Champions League title is not an easy task for any team.
But I wonder why you still include Barcelona as a candidate team to be able to get the Champions League title next season. Because in reality, in the last two seasons Barcelona has performed very badly in the Champions League and also in the Europa League. So, with Barcelona's very poor performance like that in the last two seasons, I don't think Barcelona can be included or entered to become a candidate team to win the Champions League title next season. Also about Manchester City, basically Manchester City still has a chance. That means, Manchester City is still quite likely to be able to repeat its success even though it won't be easy but still, Manchester City has a chance.

I can't find any reason to think the Barcelona team is still weak. Barcelona conceded just 20 goals in La Liga last season. Their defense is strong. They have shown that their defenders have the ability to perform well.

Lewandowski, the main player in Barcelona's attack, is quite talented and experienced. He was the top scorer in La Liga last season. In the friendly matches, we have seen the performance of Barcelona's young players Ansu fati and Raphinha improve. At the same time, Dembele is playing very well.

Barcelona have signed Xavi Gundogan to bolster their midfield. Barcelona's defense, midfield and attack are now strong enough. This is why I think the team has the potential to do well in next season's Champions League.

Real Madrid will definitely need a suitable replacement for Benzema if they want to be La Liga champions next season. Without a suitable replacement for Benzema, Real Madrid's chances of winning La Liga are very low. Because Barcelona are in very good form. Xavi is trying to strengthen his team this season. On the other hand, the Real Madrid team has become weaker after losing Benzema. Despite having talented players like Vini, Rodrygo and Joselu in the squad, Real Madrid need a stronger attack if they want to stay in the title race with Barcelona. Barcelona will probably dominate La Liga next season if Mbappe is not included in the squad.
When talking about chances, we actually still don't know Real Madrid performance in new season. Maybe they have small chances as you say but maybe not, because Real Madrid can make surprise anyway. But yeah Real Madrid lacks a centre forward at there now is only Joselu, reportedly if Mbappe can't join with Real Madrid then they will sign Dusan Vlahovic, if this rumours are true so then there are two players in that position of centre forward. And maybe their chance to win La Liga will open up.

Real Madrid can certainly surprise. After Ronaldo left the team, we thought Real Madrid's performance would drop badly. But suddenly Benzema started to perform brilliantly. And Real Madrid's overall performance began to improve. And with Benzema gone, we are once again saying that Madrid's performance could deteriorate. Now there is no surprise that Vini and Rodrygo's performances have improved. Real Madrid management is very experienced. They know what they should do.

Mbappe is likely Madrid's main target. That's why they brought Joselu on loan. Dusan Vlahovic is quite talented. Madrid would certainly benefit from adding Dusan Vlahovic to the squad. However, PSG are very interested in signing Dusan Vlahovic. I think the chances of seeing Dusan Vlahovic with Madrid are slim.

Victor Osimhen is only 24 years old. Victor Osimhen's move to a club in Saudi Arabia at such a young age would be a foolish decision. Saudi Arabian clubs may offer high wages and opportunities to Victor Osimhen, but he will not be respected enough to play for a Saudi club. Can't play on a prestigious platform like the Champions League.
Victor Osimhen is a fantastic player. Clubs like PSG are also interested in having them in their squad. I agree with @legendbtc that Victor Osimhen should wait more. The likes of Manchester City, United and Liverpool will be desperate to sign Victor Osimhen in the coming years. And playing in the Premier League will be an even greater honor for Victor Osimhen.
Unbelievable news from Napoli after rejecting fantastic bid offer from Saudi Pro League team Al-Hilal for Victor Osimhen with 140 million euro, rumor Napoli have open bid offer 200 million euro for teams who interested signing Victor Osimhen. I don't think has chance for Victor Osimhen get interested with top European teams like Manchester United, Liverpool or PSG because they wont spent to 200 million euro as bid offer request from Napoli.

Victor Osimhen current contract will run out in 2025 and he needs patience waiting one or two years later moving to top European teams because difficult any teams have fund 200 million euro as fees transfer. I would like to see Victor Osimhen can play in Primer League as most competitive league around the world and show his quality as best striker right now.

Al Hilal's offer was very tempting for Napoli management and Osimhen. 140 million is not a small amount at all. And if Napoli demands 200 million then they can't sell Osimhen. There is no doubt that Osimhen is a talented player. But 200 million is a huge amount of money. Premier League clubs will probably not agree to spend so much money to add Osimhen to the team.

Al Hilal also agreed to pay Osimhen 1 million wages per week. Now Osimhen probably earns like 110000 euros per week from Napoli. Osimhen could have become very rich overnight. However, Osimhen probably has no interest in moving to a Saudi club. Perhaps we will see Osimhen with Napoli next season as well. Because no club will want to spend 200 million to bring Osimhen to the team.

The competition between Barcelona and Real Madrid will be highly anticipated because Real Madrid has yet to find a striker to replace Benzema. Although Real Madrid have signed Joselu so far, he does not appear to be the right answer to replace Benzema well. So I think next season is a good opportunity for Lewandowski if he still wants to maintain his top scoring streak in La Liga.
Joselu to substitute Benzema then statistically will be much different. Especially when compared to Lewandowski as opposed to rivals from Barcelona but we never know how Joselu on the pitch with Real Madrid at least he can see as a striker who has to replace Benzema and it is not an easy task for Joselu but I hope he finds the best way with Real Madrid.

I know that Real Madrid will not be coming for another striker unless they wait for Mbappe to come next season, so maybe that will be the next priority even though Mbappe is not the right one in the central striker position.
So the two great La Liga teams Barcelona and Real Madrid will be very competitive again in La Liga, especially the Champions League.
If Real Madrid does not bring in a striker to replace Benzema this season, I think Barcelona will crush them again like last time. Real Madrid has revealed a gap when missing the number 9 striker. Joselu is just a temporary solution for the club. With this gap in attack, I believe Kane or Mbappe can fill it. Real Madrid seems to be waiting to buy a cheap star, undecided which striker to target.
As for Lewandowski, stay in shape. Next season promises titles for him when Real Madrid has not exploded any more blockbusters in attack.

Real Madrid will definitely need a suitable replacement for Benzema if they want to be La Liga champions next season. Without a suitable replacement for Benzema, Real Madrid's chances of winning La Liga are very low. Because Barcelona are in very good form. Xavi is trying to strengthen his team this season. On the other hand, the Real Madrid team has become weaker after losing Benzema.

Victor Osimhen is considered to be the best player in the Napoli squad. Napoli won the title last season. Now if they lose the best player in the squad then it will affect their performance. Napoli management will definitely not want to let go of Victor Osimhen. I think Napoli management will try their best to keep Victor Osimhen with the squad.
Victor Osimhen is only 24 years old. At this age, he will not want to go to the Saudi League. He might get more money in the Saudi League. But he doesn't get enough respect. This is why Victor Osimhen will not choose the Saudi League at a young age.
Victor Osimhen aspires to a level of competition that goes beyond the limitations of the top Italian clubs currently in existence. Negotiations for a greater wage with these teams might take place but the move is less likely given the hefty fee involved. Osimhen significant contribution to Napoli is clear, eliminating rumours of his leaving. His refusal to take offers from Saudi Arabian clubs is a clear indication of his resolve to realise his Premier League aspirations. His rising fame and the devoted support of Napoli supporters make a transfer to another Italian club difficult. Osimhen unrealized potential may thrive on a larger European platform, demonstrating both the worth and the desire of the man.
Yes, the Napoli leadership will prevent Victor Osimhen from leaving. They will offer a recorr-high transfer fee if any club wants to get him. They'll try to hold him back. Only Saudi Arabian clubs or PSG have enough money to make this deal. But as we have seen, he turned down the Saudi Arabian club. As for PSG, the house he wants to head to is different. He should wait for offers from top clubs like Real Madrid or Manchester United. Places that promise him the highest glory in his career.
For now, he should stay at Napoli and continue to assert his worth.

Italian top clubs in their current state are clearly not the goal that Osimhen expects in his future as a player. Yes, he can bargain for some salary improvements from these clubs, but not so significant and the price for him is too huge for the Italians.
Victor Osimhen is doing exceptionally well at Napoli; there is no need to spread rumors about his departure; he is not going anywhere, and the Victor Osimhen we all know would not have triggered an offer coming in from Saudi Arabian clubs, we already know have the money, but things are getting twisted at the player's end, his dream of playingin the EPL will be chattered, with no sign of any greenlight from the Nigerian. There is no chance Victor Osimhen will join another Italian club this summer, and even if he did want to leave Armando Diego Maradona Stadium, there are so many supporters who adore him that they would not want to jeopardize the player's position.
yes I think Victor Osimhen will stay at Napoli. the strengthened team at the moment with performances that are of concern to many. seduction from Arab clubs I think could have ended his professional career in Europe. at a young age I think there are still many opportunities for Victor Osimhen to perform better by becoming a dangerous striker at a European club.
Victor Osimhen deserves a big price tag, but he would deserve to be in better competition.

Since Victor Osimhen is still bound by contract, there is no much say on his part but on that of Napoli and they are considering the vacuum that might be created if leaves. And if he truly leaves, be sure that Napoli will not make it more than 6th position next season, this is what they are avoiding. But of course, if there is a rich club in Europe willing to pay for the risk, they might overlook that, but certainly not clubs in the SPL, Victor Osimhen will not agree to that as his career is still very young.

Napoli could not find a suitable replacement for Victor Osimhen. This is why they will not be interested in selling Victor Osimhen. But if a club is willing to pay a high amount for Victor Osimhen then Napoli management will decide to sell Victor Osimhen. Because Napoli is not a very rich club. They need money. With the sale money of Victor Osimhen, they can buy young players and build the team. However, I don't think Napoli will be interested in selling Victor Osimhen. Because they want to fight for the title next season as well. Also, without Victor Osimhen, it will be very difficult for Napoli to perform well in the Champions League.

West Indies managed to defeat India by just 4 runs. Their strong fielding played a crucial role in the victory. Their bowlers did well in the final 10 overs, and the game took a major turn because of Hetmyer's catch and Samson's impressive run-out. Jason Holder's successful wickets of Suryakumar and Hardik helps West Indies taking a 1-0 lead in the series. I guess the outcome could be in India's favor if their experienced batters put little more responsibility.

It was a humiliating defeat for India. This West Indies squad is relatively weak. On the other hand, the players of the Indian team are very experienced. Apart from the last match in the ODI series, India did not play well in the remaining two matches. And in the first T20 match, the Indian team had to be defeated due to bad batting.

149 runs was not a big target for a team like India. Even then India lost 9 wickets in this match. Tilak Verma scored 39 off 22 balls. Besides, no other batsman in the team can play well. BCCI is experimenting with their squad. Rohit and Kohli should have been kept in the team. India will not win the T20 series against the West Indies if the batting does not improve.

Bitcoin is indeed a great invention of mankind, but it is not something so divine that can solve all problems in the world, so don't be too delusional and we need to be realistic. You and I, and many others come here for profit, so you need to be realistic about where you stand and what to do to avoid unnecessary losses instead of the illusion that bitcoin will replace the system of world currency or save the world.

If you already know bitcoin is an inflation hedge, accumulate it as much as possible to save yourself, you need to save yourself before thinking about saving the world.

We still don't know how Rasmus Hojlund will perform. If he performs well, it is good for Manchester United. But Manchester United definitely needs an experienced striker.
Marcus Rashford is Manchester United's most experienced striker. And while Rashford is an excellent player, he is only 25 years old. He played very well in the last season. Rashford scored 17 three goals. However, if Manchester United's goal is the title, and if they want to maintain continuity in the Champions League, then they must add experienced players to the team. Otherwise, the team will not be able to survive in the competition.
Actually, Rasmus Højlund hasn't impressive performance last season with Atalanta by scoring 9 goals from 32 matches in domestic league, its not really promising striker exactly with Primer League who know most hardest competition than Serie A. I doubt for first season he will adapt well with Manchester United and possibility scoring many goals. Probably Rasmus Højlund still young striker 20 years old, I don't sure how potential is he with Manchester United next season actually he has two weeks left for adapting before Manchester United first match Wolves two weeks later.

Manchester United coach Ten Hag signed Rasmus Højlund only because he is a young player. Rasmus Højlund's performances with Atalanta last season were not impressive. We still don't know why Ten Hag added Rasmus Højlund to the team. I think we will have to wait at least 2 seasons to get a better performance from Rasmus Højlund. It is highly unlikely that he will perform well in a competitive platform like the Premier League next season.


Marcus Rashford  is most experienced striker for Manchester United right now, but Erik ten Hag put him as winger than central striker and United really need with experienced striker for next season. Expectation signing Harry Kane but the reality Manchester United fans have to accept with Rasmus Højlund.

There is no experienced striker in the Manchester United squad. If the Ten Hag is planning long-term without thinking about next season, United's Champions League qualification next season will be in doubt. Ten Hag should find an experienced striker and add to the squad. Liverpool and Chelsea are strengthening their squads. Manchester United are still behind.

Heavy weights have longer careers in MMA compared to the lighter weight classes as the demands in HW are actually not as hard.  And if you notice many of them are a bit older.  


Well, that is also true. And I think that’s because when fighting in the heavyweight category, age does not compromise a huge part of the skill. We all know that almost all heavyweight fighters are a little slow. So age does not compromise speed because speed is not that much of a great ability for a fighter anywhere at this weight. That’s why I think they can have a longer career.  But that does also mean they generally carry around a bigger chance of getting injured.

Due to injury, Barcelona struggled in the Champions League last season. The team's leader, Xavi, had to solve this issue. The team won the title when the players improved and returned to La Liga. But the inconsistent defensive methods, such as employing Alonso as a left back, posed major problems.
Xavi must apply his domestic league teachings to the Champions League. In La Liga, Busquets and De Jong functioned well as a center, suggesting they may do the same in the Champions League. The summer transfer window brought in new players to strengthen the club and possibly aid Barcelona in the Champions League. With all these factors in mind, it's hard to determine when Barcelona will challenge for the crown. That appears to be in doubt.
Xavi has made major changes in Barcelona defense after they were eliminated from the Champions League last season, Barcelona has managed to become one of the teams that has a solid defense that is difficult for players from opposing teams to penetrate. This season, Barcelona defense has improved drastically, Barcelona's defenders have good quality and are very disciplined in guarding the defensive area.
Kounde, Araujo, Balde, Christensen, Alonso and several other players including Inigo Martinez will work together well to keep Barcelona defense area solid. Xavi will utilize quality players in his squad to maintain the form they showed in La Liga last season to go further in the UCL.

Xavi has gradually transformed the Barcelona team into a strong team. This team can be considered as a strong team now. They have a strong attack. Has a strong defense. And Xavi has added Gundagan to the squad to bolster the midfield. He is a very talented player. Apart from assisting, Gundagan is also capable of scoring a lot of goals.

But consistency is difficult to maintain in the Champions League. La Liga will certainly be Xavi's main target. Lewandowski is Barcelona's leading scorer. Barcelona will probably play in a 4-3-3 formation. Along with Lewandowski, if Raphinha and Ansu Fati or Dembele can have some consistent performances, then Barcelona team can maintain a good performance in the Champions League. However, the Barcelona team may not be considered favorites for the Champions League title yet.

Manchester United needed an experienced striker. As the team aims for the Premier League title next season. At the same time, Manchester United also managed to qualify for the Champions League. I don't know why Erik Ten Hag is adding a young player like Rasmus Hojlund to the squad without adding an experienced Striker. Rasmus Hojlund is quite a good striker. But we are not sure if he can do well with Manchester United next season. Rasmus Hojlund will certainly need a long time to adapt to Manchester United and the Premier League environment. A better performance is not expected from Rasmus Hojlund next season. Ten Hag is probably planning for the long-term now with the Manchester United squad.
I don't see this player much. But the stistics and price spent by Man United don't seem good enough in my opinion. But at a young age, already having a lot of experience with the senior team, makes him have great potential. I think not just in one year, he needs a lot of time to keep improving. So let's see, hopefully it won't be a failed purchase.

We still don't know how Rasmus Hojlund will perform. If he performs well, it is good for Manchester United. But Manchester United definitely needs an experienced striker.
Marcus Rashford is Manchester United's most experienced striker. And while Rashford is an excellent player, he is only 25 years old. He played very well in the last season.

I came up with this topic because I was planning to borrow money to invest in bitcoin but when I looked at the risk involved, I have to give up the borrowing plan.

You made the right decision, I am glad you are aware of the risks of investing in bitcoin by borrowing money. Borrowing money is something to avoid no matter what you use it for. And you should abandon that thought even more if you intend to borrow money to invest in bitcoin, a highly volatile asset and the future is still uncertain.

Yes, bitcoin has a lot of potential and the opportunity to make money from it is huge but not by borrowing money to invest in it. Only invest with idle money, the amount can be lost without affecting your life, the higher the return, the higher the risk.

Now I can just save my money in Bitcoin and if I'm lucky, before the time when I will be ready to use the savings I might have gotten some profit too. This would have never been possible with my local currency.



You can't think of putting money into bitcoin as a way to save money, especially if you intend to use that money in the near future. There is no guarantee for you that bitcoin will bring you profit until you need to use that money for your project, bitcoin is very volatile in the short term, so don't forget that. Bitcoin is an investment that will be risky, you can make a profit or it will make you lose, it all depends on your ability. Bitcoin is not savings.

Something that is very obvious or glarring will always be seen by more than one person. When I saw that very video, I was very much confused about the decision of Manchester United coach to bring the Young lad to the team.
I know he is still young and the Manchester United coach has the ability to make every young player a better player under him, but then my issue is about the amount he was bought.
It is not that there is scarcity of strikers in the market.  There are available strikers in the market, but just that Manchester United does not want to spend much and in the end they still spent much.
Maybe right now could say that Erik Ten Hag is gambling for the future of Rasmus Hojlund. With such a high nominal at such a young age, of course anyone would be quite doubtful about this decision. Regardless of how Atalanta raises the price, it is still difficult for Manchester United to find other options. Erik Ten Hag's wish has always been a unanimous and firm decision so inevitably he will fight for it even though finances are limited. After buying Rasmus Hojlund, Manchester United did not have an additional budget unless Erik Ten Hag released Harry Maguire.
Manchester United needed an experienced striker. As the team aims for the Premier League title next season. At the same time, Manchester United also managed to qualify for the Champions League. I don't know why Erik Ten Hag is adding a young player like Rasmus Hojlund to the squad without adding an experienced Striker. Rasmus Hojlund is quite a good striker. But we are not sure if he can do well with Manchester United next season. Rasmus Hojlund will certainly need a long time to adapt to Manchester United and the Premier League environment. A better performance is not expected from Rasmus Hojlund next season. Ten Hag is probably planning for the long-term now with the Manchester United squad.
It can't be denied that you are on point here with your statement. Manchester United hasn't been very active in terms of top strikers in the market. Rashford  was the best offender with 17 goals and after him there was only Fernandes with a mere 8 goals and then Martial with 6 goals. Quoting these numbers here actually makes me realize that finishing 3rd in the Premier League is quite an achievement with such a weak offensive line.
Rasmus Højlund is not the obvious solution to their problem unless he enfolds as a super talent turning into a super super efficient striker without any time needed to adapt to the team and the league. But what are the odds?
Mason Mount was a great transfer, but he is also no Harry Kane or Erling Haaland, but now that they are also playing the Champions League it is time for a big investment.

Mason Mount is a great player. However, Mason Mount can still be considered as a young player. Not enough experienced players yet Mason Mount. At the same time, Manchester United needs an experienced striker. But Mason Mount is a midfielder. He is not able to score too many goals. Mason Mount scored just three goals in the Premier League last season.

I think Erik Ten Hag's goal is not the title next season. He is planning for the long term. As a result, if the bond between the players is strong, then the Manchester United squad will be able to maintain a stable performance for a long time in the future. This is why Ten Hag are adding players like Mason Mount and Rasmus Højlund to the squad at high prices.

Was it really his last fight on the contract? I know Derrick Lewis in now free agent, but I can't imagine UFC not offering him a new one. As for Tony, I don't know, he still has a big name and could potentially move to other organisation and even get a better money fighting easier fights. But there's no question that his prime years are now gone.
I really looks like his contract is over. UFC either give 3 or 6 fight contracts. If we divide his UFC record to 3 or 6, it would be a round number, which makes he has no more fight. Maybe UFC will offer him sort of a farewell fight, as he said he has lost current mostly due to accidental eye poke (but we have seen the fight and Tony was dominated in every round).
A lot of people still want to see him fight and Lewis obviously still wants to fight under the UFC's banner, so I guess if he doesn't have any medical issues, Dana White and Hunter Campbell could still give him another contract...  I'd expect some announcement in a couple of months.

As for Tony Ferguson, uh man...  I think he should retire.  He isn't the same guy after the beating he got from Justin Gaethje.  That was a solid beating.

Lewis is pretty old at this point. I don’t know if it is going to be a great performance from him after this. I suspect he might decline in terms of success. But I do agree with @tokeweed that a lot of people would still want to see Lewis fight. And of course he’s also going to be interested to fight in the UFC. Because even though a lot of people are saying that that UFC does not be enough money, they are the ones who pay the most. So obviously he’s going to want to stay in the UFC.

It is actually sad to see the turn that the career of Tony Ferguson took. And I also agree that this happened after fight against Justin Gaethje. At this point, it is actually painful to see how he is getting wrecked in the cage. I think he should think about his retirement seriously.

Something that is very obvious or glarring will always be seen by more than one person. When I saw that very video, I was very much confused about the decision of Manchester United coach to bring the Young lad to the team.
I know he is still young and the Manchester United coach has the ability to make every young player a better player under him, but then my issue is about the amount he was bought.
It is not that there is scarcity of strikers in the market.  There are available strikers in the market, but just that Manchester United does not want to spend much and in the end they still spent much.
Maybe right now could say that Erik Ten Hag is gambling for the future of Rasmus Hojlund. With such a high nominal at such a young age, of course anyone would be quite doubtful about this decision. Regardless of how Atalanta raises the price, it is still difficult for Manchester United to find other options. Erik Ten Hag's wish has always been a unanimous and firm decision so inevitably he will fight for it even though finances are limited. After buying Rasmus Hojlund, Manchester United did not have an additional budget unless Erik Ten Hag released Harry Maguire.

Manchester United needed an experienced striker. As the team aims for the Premier League title next season. At the same time, Manchester United also managed to qualify for the Champions League. I don't know why Erik Ten Hag is adding a young player like Rasmus Hojlund to the squad without adding an experienced Striker. Rasmus Hojlund is quite a good striker. But we are not sure if he can do well with Manchester United next season. Rasmus Hojlund will certainly need a long time to adapt to Manchester United and the Premier League environment. A better performance is not expected from Rasmus Hojlund next season. Ten Hag is probably planning for the long-term now with the Manchester United squad.

it seems strange to say but in this exchange between vlahovic and lukaku Chelsea gains, Vlahovic is only 23 years old and when he was in the Florentine force he had shown very precious plays and in fact he was bought by Juventus for the sum of 80 million euros, Lukaku ne he is 30 years old and he has also lost the form he had during Antonio Conte's time at Inter, he is still a strong striker and knows Serie A quite well, but for Allegri's game I see him as a fish out of water
In terms of the quality of the game, of course Vlahovic still has much better development potential than Lukaku. So it's no wonder Vlahovic's current transfer price is above Lukaku. And of course in this case Chelsea will benefit because they have potential players. Meanwhile, Juventus benefit from getting money and a striker who is also quite good (Lukaku). I feel that this exchange can still be considered as a win-win exchange. Even though Chelsea had to pay a sizable amount of money and also exchange Lukaku. But that's not a problem. Because Chelsea's goal now is to build the squad back in the direction it should be, namely into the Chelsea shape that has the good quality of play as in the previous few seasons before the change in ownership of the club.
unfortunately Lukaku is now on the sidelines of the Chelsea project, and the coach also wants to offload him, but they are seriously interested in Vlahovic even if I honestly don't see him as ready for this leap in quality, maybe I'm wrong but by now the technical rate in the Premier League of the teams is very high compared to Serie A, but it is young and can settle in well and quickly, and it could also be considered an investment for the future. Lukaku at Juventus could bring more quality forward but the module that Allegri proposes will not help Lukaku so much in my opinion

I wouldn't say Lukaku is a bad player. However, the Chelsea coach does not want to keep Lukaku in his match plan. I don't know why Chelsea bought Lukaku. Lukaku had excellent performances with Inter Milan in the 2019-20 and 2020-21 seasons. But he was not familiar with Chelsea's match tactics and style of play. So he could not play well in the 2021-22 season with Chelsea. The Chelsea coach could have given Lukaku another season. But they didn't do it. And they are not interested in keeping Lukaku in the team next season. Juventus could be a good move for Lukaku. Serie A is slightly less competitive than the Premier League. If Lukaku adapts to Juventus, I think he can stay with this team for a long time
