and here are some new rumors again

This is more of a confirmed news than a rumor, Christopher Nkunku from injuries will be heading to Stamford Bridge london to join Chelsea. Medicals already done, agreement with his current club Leipzig has already been met and he has also agreed to personal terms. The deal is worth more than €60million.

The deal is expected to see Christopher Nkunku sign next summer as opposed to in January, but he will be a Chelsea player officially in the next couple of days.

Wingers like Rasford, Martial and Sancho are good enough names for United.

...

These are all talented players indeed. However there is a significant level of drop in the performances of Rashford and Martial especially. Manchester United needed these two players to be more effective in scoring goals so far. I know that Rashford is more of a winger but he is preferred in the centre-forward position as much as on the left wing by Erik ten Hag. Hence there is a scoring expectation from him at the same time. These two players have wasted so many goal chances. They could have won more matches and easier as well.

Manchester United will need a new striker who can fix this problem on a large scale if they still continue to have the same problem in the second half of the season as well.

I think Hakim Ziyech will still be considering a move away for better opportunities and playing time because it looks like he has fallen out of favour with the new manager talking about Erik Ten Hag. At this point I doubt if he will be granted an extension for further years. I still wonder why a player like Ziyech is not getting playing times at Chelsea. He needs a chance to show how much he can help the team.

Ziyech will be moving on januarty. AC milan might become the new club for him rather than MU. His contribution in chelsea was not a lot compared with another player. AC milan may finish his transfer from chelsea on january and let's see what will be the result.
He better moves from chelsea rather than always sitting in the bench. Chelsea can't give him more chance and he must think about ac milan may become a good club for his career.

Two coaching changes at Chelsea but no change in for ziyech fortunes  so made it possible for him to leave in January later, ziyech is actually a pretty good player but who knows what impressed him like he couldn't compete at Chelsea during Tuchel and also potter coaching,  but seeing his appearance who was brilliant at the world cup of course this indicates that not have many hours to play at Chelsea was the cause of Ziyech declining performance so far, reportedly Ac Milan was captivated by Ziyech appearance and was ready to make a sizable offer to bring Ziyech to the San Siro Stadium after saw he playing versus belgium.

I don't really think Manchester United needs players like maphis Depay and Gakpo because they are wingers and Manchester United has those style of wingers already in their squad, players like rashford,martial and Sancho these players are similar to maphis Depay and if United sign another winger they might stop the progress of their young Argentine (Ganacho) so they should focus on their hunt for strikers because that's the position they are lacking seriously on.

yes, what United need right now is a pure striker, which they can indeed make as a target up front to become a goal machine for United.
United had enough savings when they terminated Ronaldo's contract, I think they can use that to get enough good players to complete the current squad.
if they don't make good purchases this season, I'm sure they won't end this season well.

I'm quite optimistic, if Ten Hag gets the players he needs. Manchester United, will greatly develop under his tutelage. and as we know, that Manchester United really need a pure striker. Depay, however, is not the answer to Man United's needs.

Cody Gakpo plays as a winger, but he can also play as a center forward. if Man United manages to bring him to Old Trafford in January, I'm sure he can be Ronaldo's replacement at Man United. he is also still relatively young, his talent and potential can still be further developed if he plays in a more competitive league
So, I'm pretty sure Man United will be in on the hunt in this winter transfer window. if Ten Hag is wrong to bring in a newcomer who shouldn't be, I'm not sure MU will be able to finish in the top four until the end of the season.

Correct United needs a poacher someone who is already there at the receiving end to take the ball in at the back of the net a young and agile fighter who is ready to give fans what they really desires. They should not bother bringing Memphis bit they can bring Gakpo.
Ten Hag has good plans for the club he just needs to be properly backed to win the games not the premier league this time around.
Rashford is good but not to be fully relied upon, Sancho has been assigned some coaches to train further as he has lost his sparkling form

[Jody.Drummer]

Wingers like Rasford, Martial and Sancho are good enough names for United. Depay is not much different from these players. Actually, it's not the wing, United's problem is they need a good striker, if they were a good finisher the team would really come alive again. Look, the wingers are the top scorers in the team right now. Martial Anthony is a good striker but he has to be his alternative or better. If Lautaro Martínez transfers a striker like Osimhen or another name of this quality, then Manchester United will be an extremely dangerous team. I expect a flash transfer in the winter transfer season

True, unlike last season, under the tutelage of Erik Ten Hag several names have found their identity again by returning to perform better, even though I see that it has not been their maximum performance, but their development so far has been very good. They just need to add some players who will be able to help them to be even better. With the Ten Hag controversy that we have heard recently, including signing many players from the Eradivisie, but we have to admit that in his hands Manchester United are moving in a good direction. They just need to deepen their squad depth now to make good rotations, and anticipate the unexpected with their key players.

I am not surprised if Manchester United will resign Depay or any other winger because I do not trust their scout if they have one. They always scout for over priced and hyped footballers that are old or that have played for them before. That was how they brought Pogba back and it didn't end well, they brought Ronaldo back and it didn't end well. They should go bring Memphis Depay back and they will also regret.
While they are going for old men and overhyped, Real Madrid will be discovering Vinicius and Rodrygo kind of players for the future of the club.

In fact, this is also the focus of my attention on the players bought by Ten Hag, even though there are many who have more potential that MU should be able to get besides players from the Eredivisie league

MU is indeed eyeing Osimhen (from the Serie A league) but currently, it is still in the negotiation process because the initial price offered by Napoli is reportedly very high, after being left by CR7, MU really needs the services of a potential striker because the European League and EPL will soon return at start

mls club inter miami is confident of signing Lionel Messi, according to a report in the british 'times'. according to the report, those responsible have high hopes that the argentine will sign a contract with the mlsS team from florida as early as after the world cup in qatar. in addition to LM, the club also wants to lure his former barca teammates Cesc Fabregas and Luis Suarez to miami...

Well i can't say i haven't seen this news elsewhere, it is very possible that Fabregas and Suarez are heading there, but i still find it pretty difficult to believe that Messi could prolly be heading to the MLS, if he was having a bad second season with PSG then it would have been believable, but he is having a magnificent season with PSG, a completely different one from what he had in his first season in Paris, i was expecting him to thus stay in PSG (Europe) for another couple of years. Messi still has quite a lot in his tank, and tbh i'd be really surprised if he moved to MLS in the next summer transfer window.

I find it really hard to believe that Lionel Messi is planning to move to MLS so early in his career, even though he is playing quite well. Clearly, he has been having a stellar season for Paris Saint-Germain in recent times. But I heard that Mbappé has some problems with him. So, if PSG wants to let Messi depart by trying to keep Mbappé in the team, which I think is not going to happen. If it happens, then I think we can see Lionel Messi moving to MLS considering that no other team is interested in Lionel Messi.

But I think there are still a few teams which may still be interested in getting Lionel Messi. However, realistically I don’t think he is moving to MLS, at least not now.

Xavi Hernandez is reportedly making an approach with Endrick and trying to bring him to Camp Nou from Palmeiras. This Wonderkid is in great demand by big teams even though he is still very young and has just turned 16 years old. Apart from Xavi Hernandez (Barcelona), he noted that several big teams were also interested in signing him, such as Chelsea and Manchester United.
At Palmeiras, Endrick has played 7 times and scored 3 goals. His slick performance has made many teams want to get his services. If we see now that there are lots of teams that are more interested in young players, this is a good step because that way they are investing in their future. Indeed, from what I see, a team that has succeeded in producing young players is more promising than a team that only collects old players.

I was thinking barcelona won't make any signing because of the financial state they are, I was thinking they will only play with the players they have. If Barcelona is capable of still buying new players then it is a good development because it will help the team to achieve their targets.

It will be hard to get Osimhen for united. He is in a champions league team and has the opportunity of moving to real Madrid in the summer so I see it has a move that won't materialises. Moreover Ten Hag loves Dutch players, so Gakpo is might be the easier deal for united considering he also has low transfer fee compare to Osimhen

You mean so early in his career, Messi is already 35 mate. And him wanting to move to inter Miami is due to some circumstances. PSG truly wanted to renew his contract but Messi doesn't want a renewal. According to some reports Messi is interested in buy some shares from inter Miami, same team David Beckham is a share holder in. Him moving there could generate massive revenue for the team and might also attract new stars.
Bleacher Reports also reports that Sergio Busquet is close to moving there too. So it's all business I don't see anything wrong with it.

[TopT3ns]

Just see the latest news about him and it seems like there was a report about ac milan may try to give chelsea an offer for him again https://football-italia.net/milan-preparing-offer-for-chelsea-winger-ziyech/

I don't know whether that news can be trusted or not but im sure that makes sense to see that milan amazed with ziyech's performance during world cup. He deserves more time to play. He has potential for sure

The existence of this World Cup gave Ziyech the opportunity to show his skills and finally made AC Milan even more interested in buying Ziyech on the transfer market at the beginning of the year, even though he is not young, Ziyech's stamina and ball control are very good and should be considered.

I know that Lionel Messi is already 35. But is his career over?

He is still a very influential player for PSG. And he is also performing really well at PSG. It's not like he is not being able to perform well and sitting on the bench most of the time. He is a very active player on the field. Of course, his work rate has decreased with his age. But he is still a highly talented player and there is no reason why he should move to somewhere like MLS. And let's just be honest, no one is going to care how he performs if he actually joins on a team, a lot of people around the world probably have not even heard the name.

Currently there are some rumors about them approaching Gakpo again after last season they let it go because their focus shifted to Antony and it seems now there is interest again from Manchester United for this young player especially his good performances with the netherlands in this world cup made it clear to be one of the good targets even though this means that there will be an additional price in the clause later.

In this case it is true but it focuses back on Ten Hag and of course he still has a dream team plus he has been in the Eredivisie for a long time so surely his interest is not far away.
On the other hand, talking about Osimhen, it seems that they are aware that even though their money can still compete, forcing Osimhen is clearly difficult, especially since there are also several big clubs who want him.

I think Hakim Ziyech will still be considering a move away for better opportunities and playing time because it looks like he has fallen out of favour with the new manager talking about Erik Ten Hag. At this point I doubt if he will be granted an extension for further years. I still wonder why a player like Ziyech is not getting playing times at Chelsea. He needs a chance to show how much he can help the team.

If he show a good result during training or match, of course Graham Potter will let him to play. Ziyech has been played for 3 times when Tuchel still become Chelsea's manager, it's a match between Southampton, Leeds and Dinamo Zagreb, but as you can see Ziyech doesn't score any goal, moreover his shoots is really bad. I'd say Ziyech is only lucky during world cup match, we don't know how stable his performance.

I believe Ziyech is trying to prove his worth with the ongoing World Cup in Qatar especially with his assist for the second goal scored by Aboukhlal for Morocco, it's a pity he had not been given enough playing time in star-studded Chelsea by the duo of Tuchel and Graham Potter and with January transfer window coming up it's very obvious he will sign for another club in Europe were a regular playing time is guaranteed, there was a speculation that AC Milan wanted to sign before the beginning of this summer, Ziyech is good player and had been having an positive impact for Morocco.

It's a shame that he did not get the playtime that he wanted. I think he could have done much better if he was given some proper chances. He was not given enough chances to prove what he was worth.

In 2020, he signed a contract with Chelsea, but since then, he hasn't received enough playing time at the club. It feels like a waste of talent. Chelsea would have done much better with him regularly playing. But it is also true that Chelsea has a lot of star players in the team. So basically they find it really difficult to rotate the players. So, obviously there is no point for him to staying in Chelsea anymore. And he will also be able to perform well in other teams where he is given enough playtime. At this point, if Manchester United wants him in the team, he should actually be there because he will at least be able to play regularly.

[FanEagle]

I know that Ronaldo is a rich person, and he probably has a lot of money so he doesn't "need" more money but to refuse that kind of money never made any sense to me. First of all he is no longer the type of guy that can lead a UCL level team, I mean Sherrif was in UCL last year, I do not mean that, I mean a team that is looking to win the whole thing, he won't be there.

So, if there is really an offer for 220 million to him, he should take it and then he could maybe have a chance to buy a whole team in the future. This dude could potentially have 400-500 million in the bank from what we understood on that interview, get another 220 on there and we are talking about at least 700 million, he could make some more deals and get another 300 from ads and sponsorships and promotions, and for 1 billion dollars you may not get City or Liverpool, but you could definitely buy some club.

Really the money is big even he has money and a rich player in this generation he would have accepted the money because we have seen rich players like him became poor because probably after retired from football they have nothing in doing so they spend from the football savings and after when everything has been exhausted they became poor. Now my question bis that, after when has left Manchester United where will he go ?

[izsara]

It's the end for Uruguay in this game. VAR decided on a late penalty and now it's extra time and Bruno has done well.
Portugal is the third team confirmed to qualify now for the next round of the world cup.
Bruno brace in this game of course it's very good for him and I'm happy with the result now.

[Distraction]

Money just doesn't seem to be Ronaldo's priority at least for now. Because he is still passionate about playing for teams that is a participant in the Champions League. He has achieved so many titles and awards in his career so far. He doesn't need to prove anything to himself or anyone actually. It is just about his nature that he is an ambitious person in every condition. Maybe he is this much eager to do this but we don't know how many of this kind of teams will be interested in him in January transfer window.

We have seen rumours about Chelsea maybe but they are focused on finishing the Nkunku deal for now. If they do this then they might not be eager to make another striker signing. I don't believe the rumours about PSG and Bayern Munich also.
