Herrera is free, that's why PSG want him. They're gonna need a few backups in midfield next season.

That's a fair point, Indeed they'll need back up plans for their midfield, I wish them good luck with that. I just don't happen to consider Herrera a good option, IMO.

^  He did show some brilliance under Mou last season (the vs Chelsea at home fixture comes to mind when Herrera man marked Hazard for the whole match).

I think Pogba played his best football when he was at Juventus. That's where we was a footballer. Now he is also focused on his hair and doing commercials and becoming a celebrity. I agree that Hazard will be one of the biggest possible signings for next year but you guys seem to be forgetting that Griezman is also available and will probably leave Atl. Madrid.

[kenzawak]

Griezman is also available and will probably leave Atl. Madrid.

I think he wants to go to Barca but the Socios don't want him. There was a survey in which 90% of them said they were against signing him.
And since the President of Barca is elected, I don't think he will go against the fans and sign him.

Pogba said, Real Madrid is anyone's dream club and he will be happy to train under Zidane.There is also rumours that Madrid is considering bale swap for Pogba from ManU.I am not sure what Will happen in next but CM like pogba would be great for Madrid.Because Modric is about to retire and madrid needs a midfielder who can attack also.         

What you said about the swap of Gareth Bale in exchange for Paul Pogba was actually not a rumour but a genuine news because Pogba actually wanted to play for Madrid and team need a player who will take the place of Modric as you said. However, you must remember that the Madrid coach and Pogba are actually from the same country so is like playing at home also with the legend for Pogba

Rumours say that De Light (Ajax) to Barcelona is almost a done deal, price could be around €80m. Also, Barcelona wants Jovic (Frankfurt), and apparently, the club wants to talk to his agent next monday and convince him to accept Barca's offer as Bayern Munich is showing interest in the player.

And it looks like there's a new gem that the top clubs want: Joao Felix (Benfica). Man Utd, Juventus, Real Madrid, and Man City are keen on the new portuguese young talent.

I'm not sure about De ligt, but about Eintracht Frankfurt's Jovic I'd definitely love to see Barcelona snap him as a potential Luis Suarez's replacement. Jovic as a great composure in front of goal and he's very young (21 years) , With Suarez definitely ageing and in his latter days in the Barcelona a permanent replacement should well be on cards.

Just less than 15 months after signing him for $192.7m

Barcelona are open to selling Philippe Coutinho should they receive a bid upwards of £90 million, despite the Brazil international's desire to stay, sources have told ESPN FC.

Coutinho has been in and out of the starting lineup this season, and was even booed by his own supporters during a 3-1 victory over Rayo Vallecano. The 26-year-old has been linked with a move away and while there have been no official bids, there is interest in the midfielder.

I wonder how many Liverpool faithfuls are happy right now.

You sure about  LFC fans will like to see Coutinho coming back to EPL and playing for Man United.He is very good player.

Barca bought de Jong already and now they wants De Ligt and Jovic
Jovic is fine player and not so much expensive only about 40 mln euro

I hope you are being sarcastic about Liverpool fans being happy if Coutinho joined United

By the way, New signings especially Youngsters haven't really lived to their expectations after joining Barcelona in the recent years. All we see are just glimpses of talent in a few matches before they get completely forgotten. What do you think is the problem?

That's most definitely due to lack of playing time for the youngsters and a huge pressure when they're trying to live up to expectations a the slightest chance they get, The most recent case would be Yerry Mina he came into with a big potential as a CB but had a very limited playing time due to Pique and Umtiti's partnership at the heart of defence, but whenever he gets a chance the pressure is always too much.

You are right about that and even at the front and midfield the likes of Aleix Vidal, Paulinho, Paco Alcacer alongside many others failed to make an impact before they were released, and we have some more who could be following the same path.

Last decent signings were made in the 14/15 season where Suarez, Rakitic and Marc-André ter Stegen came in but after that signed players haven't really shown their potential thou Barcelona is still very successful in La Liga thanks to Messi.
If you remove Messi out of the picture, Barcelona would face a lot of crisis just like Real Madrid Just had a taste of their own.

It's just that the star players were holding to their spots and they still are.
Guys like DeJong, DeLigt, Arthur are here to replace the older players... but that will only happen in due time.
Only Lenglet and Dembele have made it to the starting XI but others soon will.
I actually like the way Barca is dealing with this situation.
Now finding another Messi will be another story.

Lenglet happened to be very lucky with the long term injury Samuel Umtiti had to through, If not I think he'd have had a very limited playing time, just like Yerry Mina and Vermelean had.

Yes, all star players are keeping their spots unless one gets an injury but Barca is a team which never wants to compromise quality and this is what I think makes them keep buy all the potential good players.

-It is said that Liverpool wants to get rid of Naby Keita who signed last summer. Dortmund and Bayern are interested.
-There is more and more talk about Raphael Varane leaving Real Madrid next summer. Juve could go after him.
-AS reports that if Real wants to sign Mbappe, they're gonna have to pay him at least 15 millions Euros.
-City is interested in signing Atletico's LB Filipe Luis. He'll be free next summer.

Mbappe will be the hot topic of the transfer discussions this summer.
I don't think that Real Madrid has any problem paying that money in order to bring him at Santiago Bernabeu. Now that Zinedine Zidane is sitting on the bench it is very likely that Mbappe is going to move to Madrid.

Lolol.  That or he has no idea.  

But as a neutral I'd def...  DEF wanna see it happen for the lulz.

Anyway it's nice to see the thread is getting more active.  Why note vote in the poll.  Will Sarri be sacked this summer or is Abramovich gonna take a more 'rebuilding' approach?

[Harkorede]

Summer ? He's already causing a wave of speculation,
Real Madrid is said to be plotting a €280m transfer proposal to lure Mbappe to Santiago Bernabeu after Zidane has made him his top priority.

[kenzawak]

I think whether Mbappe will move next summer is completely up to him.
It's obvious that PSG wants to keep him and that it can moneywise.
So it's about what Mbappe wants. He's a bright kid who gets good advice on his career from his entourage.
Real is clearly his dream team and he will play there one day. He could have signed there when he was a teen but he went to Monaco instead because it was the right move career wise. Same thing when he signed for PSG, he went there because he wasn't sure he would start at Real... he ended up being a world champion and a superstar so it was definitely the right move again.
So what is the right move for him now ? That's what he will have to decide. Zidane is in Real, the team will be built around him so yeah... I think it's a possibility he's out of PSG next summer. Or he can decide that PSG has more potential in winning the CL, who knows ?
