German side Leipzig rejected him after a medical with Manchester United star Marcus Rashford.

Marcus' torn ligament is still a problem for him, missing the last four games, as well as his transfer contracts are now on hold, especially since Leipzig have now given up hope of signing him as the player is not able to play shortly after joining the team.

Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund are among the clubs who are interested in Rashford, but go in for lesser amounts which should regret the latter in the future.

Leipzig wants a player who will join the team and play directly. If Rashford is injured right now, teams that have the money to evaluate him in the future and can take risks will transfer him.
He is not considered young in terms of age, he is now 27 years old and he is not a player with great features.
If he had contributed to the team well, would Manu sell him? I don't think so. Because Manu is in a bad situation as a team right now.
Leipzig made the right decision by giving up.
I think he is a player they can easily sell to Turkish teams. Turkish clubs will transfer him if he is old, injured or not, if he has a name and is popular.

Chelsea is looking for signing Bayern Munich's young talent Mathys Tel.

They want to swap with Nkunku, I think it's a worthy deal even though Tel hasn't prove anything, but he's still 19 years old, he should able to improve and become better. While Nkunku is already 27 years old and his appearance in Chelsea not looking good.

The problem is whether Bayern want to exchange their young assets for Nkunku? Although in terms of popularity we know what Nkunku is like and for the Bundesliga of course it is not a new place but currently Nkunku is very prone to injuries that make his performance decline.

Even seeing what happened at Chelsea since 2023 he has been injured even with a duration of more than 8 months if everything is totaled starting from knee injuries, Hip even Hamstring so that in the end this can be a condition that is indeed difficult if a player whose legs are fragile is exchanged with a young player whose potential is actually still quite good if it is well honed.

This is a consideration because after all, apart from the current value, of course we must be aware that long-term progress must also be considered so in the end I think Bayern if they agree to a swap then it could be a slightly ridiculous situation.

Kyle Walker was left out of the Manchester City squad that thrashed Salford City 8:0 tonight and just immediately after the match, journalists asked Pep Guardiola why he decided to not include him in his squad and the Spanish manager responded by saying that Walker asked the club to allow him explore the options to play abroad. If truly Walker was the one who asked to be allowed to leave Manchester City, do you think it's right for him to leave the club in the middle of the season? And if Manchester City management has deemed it necessary to get rid of Walker from the club, do you think it's a good move? Let me read your thoughts

Kyle Walker has been a crucial player for Manchester City for many years now, giving everything for the club and fighting for trophies which he successfully achieved much with the club so I think it is normal for every player at some point in their career to make this hard decisions so if the news is true it is absolutely normal and understandable and I think granting his wish will be good also for the club.

I think right now is beyond what the media is portraying at the moment, Pep Guardiola wouldn't be so inconsiderate to let go of his best option at right full back that has the çapacity to support the attacking line especially now that the club is going through hard times, Kyle Walker is probably the most prolific right full back in the whole of the English premier League, he is second to none and Manchester City probably do not have a perfect replacement for Walker yet so why the hurry.
At least they could have talked him into staying till the summer rather than letting him go so soon, I believe there's something they aren't telling us, and I feel they would end up tell us when time comes because it's looking like part of the restructuring plan of Pep Guardiola.

There are still 18 months left on this player's contract and he has been very useful and effective for the team's defense. Now, news has come from the club that out of respect for Walker, they want to let him move to another team for free, and it seems that it will be Milan, of his own free will. If they wanted to show respect for this player, why didn't they use him in the last game? Why wasn't a replacement introduced for him? That is, he played such an insignificant role or was not effective that he doesn't need a replacement? Why is everything so ambiguous?

Kyle Walker has been a crucial player for Manchester City for many years now, giving everything for the club and fighting for trophies which he successfully achieved much with the club so I think it is normal for every player at some point in their career to make this hard decisions so if the news is true it is absolutely normal and understandable and I think granting his wish will be good also for the club.

Walker has given his loyalty to Manchester City, he is a player who has high dedication to the club and his colleagues. Last season Walker was about to decide to leave the Etihad Stadium, but because of Pep Guardiola's persuasion, this player remained. Entering the 2024/25 season, Manchester City's performance has decreased quite drastically, and it has affected the players as a whole. Quoted from Romano's report, Kyle Walker plans to leave this month with AC Milan in active talks after there was interest from the Saudi team and negotiations were ongoing. Maybe this is the best decision for Walker to leave, especially if Milan is really interested in bringing him in. It's just that this player has entered an age that is no longer young, how long will Milan use his services if he joins the San Siro. Today City will travel to Brentford's home, it is likely that Kyle Walker is not included in the list of players brought by Pep Guardiola. In addition, it is likely that Manchester City or Pep Guardiola will approve Kyle Walker's move, so we'll just have to see what happens next.

Walker's love for the club led him to consider leaving Manchester City last season but he later stayed at Manchester City, but he is unlikely to be at Manchester City at the end of this season. From the beginning of the season we can see that Manchester City's condition is not very good as they have lost most of the matches in the Premier League whereas in other seasons they have won all these matches regularly. After so many failures of the team, if one of the most reliable defenders of the team leaves for another club, it will not be a good thing for Manchester City. Many would say that if this defender leaves, Manchester City will hire another defender for their club, but I don't think any other defender will be as successful in this position as Walker was as Manchester City's defender.

Maybe moving to Turkish teams would be good for those teams, but it is not suitable for Rashford because these teams will not pay enough money for him and his future, and their level of football is not at all comparable to a league like the English league, which will ruin Marcus' future. i think that he should go to a team that will buy him for a slightly lower price and also give him enough time to play and adapt to the team, which will be beneficial for his future. If he takes advantage of this opportunity, it will be good for his future and will increase his price and move to better teams.

Kvarat finally goes to the PSG!!!! He received quite a lot of salary from PSG, which is worthy enough. He has made the right choice instead of staying far longer there. His departure has forced Napoli to search a new LW.

Stupid decision by Kvaratskhelia, it's true he will able to play at UCL regularly, but he sacrifice his career.

He should able to move to other top teams like Manchester United or Liverpool because they both really need new players.

He made the right decision to move to PSG. They offered an amount that Manchester United might not give. The current Red Devils are struggling to even get to the top ten in the EPL. For now, Kvaratskhelia has a brighter future in PSG than in Man United. There are possibilities that he would still play in the next Champions League since PSG is the dominant force in League One even if they are knocked out in this current campaign.

PSG might be struggling to make a mark in the UCL but that doesn't make them mediocre in European football. Great players like Kylian Mbappe, Lionel Messi, Di Maria and Neymar have also played in this club. He could contribute to the improved performance of the club which can give them UCL glory. I think he made the right decision.

Yes I think the management should let him leave. I also believe that this is something that the management of Manchester city wants. This is the last season on Kyle Walker's contract. If he doesn't leave this January, Manchester city will lose him for free in the summer transfer window. Walker on the other hand is no longer as sharp as he used to be, so he is finding it difficult to play under the intensity that Manchester city are known for.

Walker knowing fully well that he is not contributing much to the club anymore and he not playing much as he used to in the past, knows that playing abroad will be the best option left for him. This decision is best for the club and Kyle Walker. Pep left him out of the squad because he don't know how the fans will react after hearing the news that Walker wants to leave the club. Some fans will try to be hostile towards him. So it was best to leave him out of the squad to avoid any unnecessary dramas.

guys, I don't know where the source you made reference to your post, because basically rashford was never interested by Leipzig this season, because the only club that was interested in him was Milan, so indeed rashford never did a medical at leipzig, so how do you say if they has rejected him?.

It seems that you have misinformed in terms of the current transfer of Rashford, Milan has so far been very interested in signing Rashford from Manchester United, but Milan desire could be cancelled, if they fail to loan Noah Okafor to Leipzig, whoreportedly failed a medical test at Leipzig.

I guess he will be disappointed how he is leaving now after being persuaded to remain at the club, either way I still think he will still get a club in Europe and that likely would be Ac Milan who are showing interest on him rather than moving outside to Saudi Arabia.

I think if he is dropped also in their coming match then maybe before next week ending when will have a more concrete news on the club he is likely moving to.

Based on a report from Fabrizio Romano, that Kyle Walker will not be part of the Manchester City squad against Brentford. in the same post Walker plans to leave the club soon, while Milan continues to hold talks with Walker's camp. however, it seems that an official agreement has not been made, or is still in process. talking about Kyle Walker, he is a tough player and has high discipline. although Walker's age is no longer young, but his stamina is still very well maintained. if Walker confirms joining AC Milan, I am quite sure he will contribute with his new team. it's just that my question is, how long will AC Milan use his services while he is currently 34. my guess is that Walker's departure to San Siro will likely happen soon, while Saudi Arabia seems unlikely to be his next career place. well, let's just wait for the final decision for this English player.

Rashford's ligament condition may be doubting other clubs to sign him as well. The only possible thing is that there may be an agreement for the club wanted to loan him to share his salary. I've heard that if Barcelona, Totenham or even Westham are interesting to take him.

It most probably he moved to the his club's rival, but i prefer to see him plays for Barcelona. His story line is exciting me.

Hopefully, he plays better on his new team.

Where did you get the information that Rashford failed his medical in Leipzig, I have never seen anyone else interested in him except Milan and Barcelona, ​​but in this case it was about leasing the player. And at the same time, Amorim says that Rashford himself must decide where he wants to continue his career, and that he still does not know whether Rashford will stay at Manchester United or not. It seems to me that their relationship did not work out from the very beginning, so Rashford simply has no desire to continue working with Amorim.

I think he made the right decision.

Of course, who are we to say if he made the right choice or not. Kvaratskhelia is happy moving to PSG. At least, he is sure of winning their domestic league and also play in UCL regularly. He is the player to decide where he likes to go, because he would be held responsible for his actions. However, he might not want to struggle with United in transformation of the team.

Then it is time for Ansu Fati to leave...    He came to Barcelona with big hopes undoubtedly. I don't doubt the team also believed in him for a long time. But after those serious injuries and his loan, things started not to work out for both sides. Now he had better start looking for a decent team for himself at which he can do his best. If he selects the right team for himself, I believe he can still show nice performances. But his injury-prone nature will always bring about a question mark as well.

Barcelona really likes to make investments into talented youngsters normally. They are building a new squad with many young talents now you know. But they wouldn't like to waste their time with players like him I'm afraid.

Yes, I think it's time for Ansu Fati to leave Barcelona and look for a team where he can continue to develop and maximize his potentials it's disappointing to see that a once promising like ansu fati has now been left out of the squad for the second time in a roll. The lack of consistent game time at Barcelona is not only affecting his confidence but also reducing his progress as a player.

Andy Fati's early career was filled with immense promise with many viewing him as the future of the club. However injuries and limited opportunities have hindered his progress at this phase of his career he needs a club that will be able to guarantee him regular playing time to rebuild his form and confidence. A fresh start could reignite his career and allow him to showcase his talent.

Barcelona President understand all things around club so now they are deciding few things for improving their finances and also having some space for new players which are currently important for them just because of this most chances we will be having Ansu Fati on loan for two clubs in negotiating with most chances Sevilla could be favourite for having him.

This will bring some good things around dressing room as well because right now media reports are clearing saying things are not good while they are also having problems for not registering their few new players Super Cup win is overshadowed by many on and off the field issues.

As situation is going now this winter transfer window is surly going to be important for them, and they are also now looking for bounce back into La Liga after having many poor results which bring them to third spot in league table.

It seems United have to accept their failure to sign Kvaratskhelia from PSG. I am sure he has considered the situation of the team he will choose, and he prefers PSG, of course not a bad choice. He must see a better opportunity to play there. Get a long contract and of course with a higher salary. PSG is a club that dominates the League, he will get attention there. At the same time, United needs him for a process that may not be realized quickly. At this time he may ignore how competitive the situation of Ligue 1 and the Premier League.

I saw in a news by a reputable football journalist (Ben Jacobs) that AC Milan are interested in both him and Marcus Rashford but would have to pick either of the players due to a new Brexit Serie A rule that hinders them from signing two Premier League player in this transfer window but i think they'll choose Kyle Walker over Rashford with reasons that Rashford wage would be an issue for them and they can't loan him with an obligation to buy, AC Milan would likely demand that Manchester United pay majority of the wages and i don't think Manchester United would agree to that terms but on a second thought, Walker is 34 years old so i wonder why Milan would be much interested in him instead of going for a younger talent. I saw in another news that Walker has made it clear that he'll rather remain in Europe than move over to the Saudi Pro League, maybe a deal with AC Milan is likely to happen this January and with Kyle telling Pep Guardiola that he's willing to explore other options, it means that he's ready to leave Manchester City if an opportunity comes knocking.

Ligue 1 is not too competitive compared to Premier league so i am not sure moved to PSG could be good for Kvaratskhelia career especially for long term because if Kvaratskhelia want to develop his skill i think Premier league is the right place for him but unfortunately Kvaratskhelia has been choose PSG as his next club and indeed huge amount of salary could be his main consideration why thinking moved to PSG especially at this team Kvaratskhelia will received 5 years contract duration which this could not be obtained by him if he moved to Manchester United and Liverpool

Well PSG are a sports washing project, they have sovereign wealth, Liverpool and Man Utd don’t.

It's probably as simple as PSG are willing to offer him and his agent a better financial package than anybody else.

Beşiktaş, who are looking for a striker, are interested in Sandro Kulenovic. The striker, who has a very good goal scoring record at Dinamo Zagreb, is exactly the type of player Beşiktaş are looking for. Traditionally always this type of players have played for Beşiktaş. There is no striker coming after Immobile this season. Semih Kılıçsoy and Mustafa Hekimoğlu are still very inadequate. Players coming out of the youth system need to be more experienced. It's difficult to play directly for Beşiktaş. I was very excited when I first heard about the Kulenovic transfer. If we can get him, it will be a great transfer success. It's not easy to find a striker who scores goals so consistently.

I understand that PSG is not a club for ambitious players, but I doubt many players currently will pick Manchester United over PSG if they both offered the same contract. Man United is not what it used to be and the sooner yall realise that the better.
At PSG he is guaranteed Champions league football and a chance to wi trophie, I cant say the same about Manchester United. We understand that the premier league is a bigger and better league than the ligue 1 but Manchester United is currently not a club that has so much appeal on players currently.

Also, It seems PSG has started that deal underground before the news broke and by the time the news broke, the deal was already in its final stages so the only way Manchester United could hyjack the deal was by offering both the club (Napoli) and player more money which is not a reasonable thing to do.
At the end of the day, i will not choose Man United over PSG currently, competitive league or not.
