If Newcastle are right and serious about getting Joan Garcia, then The Magpies squad will have 6 goalkeepers. Indeed, Newcastle's main goalkeeper position is now occupied by Pope with an age that is over 30 years old. Making him as Newcastle's future goalkeeper is not a bad choice considering Joan Garcia is still 24 years old and an original Espanyol product.

Joan Garcia's release clause which reaches € 25 million for the statistics he has and his age is not classified as expensive.

This may not be something to expect by everyone, but what if GOAT backs to the european club again? I will be happy to see him play in the europe, in a big club. The only question is that will there be a team that sign 40 years old guy to play?
Ronaldo is a very good player even when he's at his age, but paying big wages for 40 years old is kinda unaccetapble. If he will accept to reduce his salary, there may be a club that will be interesting enough to sign him.

It seems he's being obsessed to play in the club world cup, and still try to find a way about how to play in that competition.

Moving to the club that qualify for club world club is one of ways.

It will be interesting to see Ronaldo return to Europe, I must admit that I have missed watching Ronaldo play in Europe. It's a good thing that even in Saudi Arabia he has managed to put himself in spotlight even outside of Europe. Concerning his rumored move away from Al Nassr, it is still not clear whether or not he will leave but we will see if he will make it to the FIFA club world cup with a different team.

Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the players who should be considering retirement, not the next club to move to. He is of age and has nothing else to prove in football, hence my reason. I don't think it is a plan for Ronaldo to play again in Saudi; maybe a move elsewhere will interest him.

I wouldn't say stuffs like that. Cristiano Ronaldo might be 40 but it still feels like a young lad in his late 20's. I still feel he has a lot to compete for. One more time for the FIFA World Cup and also more 63 goals to wrap up his 1000 career goals. Just like he said, he'll be the first to retire when his body says so. Finally,  there's a strong chance of Bruno Fernandez leaving Manchester United. Well, I have no regrets,  he gave Manchester United badge his all. Thoughts?

All the goalkeepers they have are old, the youngest is Vlachodimos, 31 years old. I think Newcastle will trying to kick their current goalkeepers either by selling or loan it, another option they will wait until their contract ends.

25 Million Euros is worth for his value, we should know he played for Espanyol aka a mediocre Spanish team. They conceded 51 goals in this season, which is big. But, if they got conceded with many goals and their goalkeeper has the highest ratings, that show if he's really great.

Liverpool have their new right back for €35m.

Arsenal is not making the move for Joan Garcia for now, they are focused on getting a better striker and a winger. However a need for a substitute goalkeeper is essential and Joan Garcia is the number 1 on the list.

We all know how Chelsea have been run so fast when it comes to the transfer window, they will make sure to get every player that does well and since they finally made history by winning the conference league and other trophies which I congratulate them but is it wise for them to continue signing more players without discarding some of the players when they hardly give the ones that are there the chance to play? I'm asking because they are going for Delap the former Man City player and currently Ipswich player, can he have a more playing time if he joins Chelsea?

Luckily, the board still believes in Amorim and has given him a chance for next year as well. But if he doesn't achieve anything significant, it'll be easy for them to replace him. Personally, i think that if they make the right transfers, they can easily bounce back and start winning, but the whole team needs to be changed...

Ruben Amorim is a very young coach. So he still needs more time and opportunities to be able to build a big team like Man United so that it can bounce back. So it's actually quite good when Amorim is still given the opportunity to coach Manchester United next season. because I think Amorim still deserves the opportunity and time. And I hope that the club will also give Amorim the freedom to completely overhaul this team. because I think Man United really needs a big change in their squad. Even though there are many good players on this team, I still see that this team's cooperation is quite poor. And that's been happening since several seasons ago. So this team really needs a breath of fresh air.

Indeed, Manchester United management should give full support to Ruben Amorim to build the team for next season because from what happened this season, Ruben Amorim cannot be blamed because he came in the middle of the season when the team was already very depressed in the hands of Ten Hag.
But now the problem is that Ruben Amorim also cannot be fully trusted because he is not an experienced coach so if Manchester United management again overhauls the squad on a large scale it will spend a lot of money and that is quite risky for the stability of the team, especially since Ruben Amorim cannot promise anything, this is a difficult situation for management, maybe what can be done is to see the progress with changes slowly.

Maybe it will go step by step, maybe a large amount will be allocated for transfers, and maybe the transfers will finally pay off. We’ll see  I’m neutral, but i think Amorim could lift United and bring back its former glory. It will be difficult, but we have to believe.

Allegri will be the new coach of AC Milan.
Allegri bis, good coach for a good team.

They should get him the past year. better later than never

Sarri close to Lazio.

Yeah, Allgeri finally agreed to return to AC Milan as their new coach after AC Milan officially fired Sergio Conceicao. This is a 3-year deal contract signed. And with him, Marco Landucci will become assistant coach of Massimilano Allegri.

Oh yeah there is 1 more interesting thing if Christian Pulisic, their 26-year-old Winger is staying closer to be at AC Milan, with Allegri. He is in the top 2 assists in Serie A with 9 assists, below Lukaku. With 11 goals during the 2024-2025 Serie.

Source: Christian Pulisic is now closer to staying at #ACMilan

It's great to see Massimiliano Allegri back at Milan, and hopefully, he can win the scudetto with Milan like he did in the 2010/11 season. That certainly won't be an easy task, given that Napoli is pushing hard for Conte to stay with them next season, and if that works out, then Napoli will be a strong competitor for AC Milan. Milan may be lucky to keep Christian Pulisic, but not with Tijjani Reijnders as Man City look set to chase the Dutch midfielder. AC Milan actually has a good opportunity to steal De Bruyne (who is currently being targeted by Napoli), where they can make De Bruyne part of Tijjani's sale clause.

Welcome TAA, now you are part of the biggest club and probably the club with the highest demands. Therefore I hope that the golden age of TAA is still there, a brilliant career journey is in sight and now we just have to see how the adaptation process with Madrid, the time needed is enough to unite the vision and mission of a TAA with Madrid until next season begins.

[Velvet78]

Yeah, it's now official...

Did Milan make a good move? I can't say no. Because they won a Serie A title with him in the past. Maybe he could be the one to make progress with this team again. 

They should do their best to keep their biggest stars like Leao in the team this summer. And with the right signings, Allegri can carry the team back into top 4.

[aylabadia05]

The latest from the same source is that Antonio Conte has been offered a salary increase by Napoli and they will also bring in good players to fill Napoli's line-up such as Kegin De Bruyne.
Regarding Romano's tweet about Allegri who will replace Sergio Conceicao, like the direction of the dice will fall according to the desired scenario.
Sergio Conceicao is not a good coach to handle a big team. We are confused to see his strategy and tactics.

It would be great if Conte stays with Napoli. Aurelio De Laurentiis seems to realize that Conte is the right coach for Napoli, and he might regret it if he lets Conte go. Salaries have been increased, and there is a possibility that Napoli will prioritize Kevin De Bruyne, but if Aurelio De Laurentiis really wants Conte to stay, then he must give Conte the freedom to buy/sell players according to his wishes. It will be interesting to see whether this offer will change Conte's stance.

Yes, it would be great if Antonio Conte stayed at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium because Napoli realized that Antonio Conte was the right strategic architect to handle Napoli.
Giving freedom to a coach must indeed be given because those who know squad problems are coaches not club owners. The club owner should not get into the realm of which players to buy.
If that is given and Napoli become a team that subscribes to champions at the end of the season, which benefits the club owners as well.
Back to Allegri and AC Milan, Sergio Conceicao is not the right coach for Milan.

We can congratulate Real and Real fans with this transfer. Cause Trent is a one of the strongest attacking defenders in the world right now and Real got Trent almost for free. Just need to pay 10 million payoff for participation in the club championship Liverpool will not get anything.
The contract is for 6 years, so I think that the next club that wants to buy such a player will pay a lot for his transfer.

Although Trent is often used as a midfielder, but his main role still is right-back defender, which means that while Real got a good replacement for Dani Carvajal on the right wing.

[SatoPrincess]

I saw this meme on social media :p .It seems a bit realistic to me. I don't know why Leverkusen is doing this. Maybe Leverkusen doesn't have any good options. Since the club is not very rich. That's why Leverkusen management is interested in signing Ten Hag.

Xabi Alonso was a great coach. Leverkusen dominated the Bundesliga with a mediocre squad because of Alonso's mastermind. The team broke Bayern Munich's dominance. But now that Alonso has signed with Madrid, Leverkusen definitely had to find a talented coach. But we didn't think it would be Ten Hag.

Ten Hag was a complete failure with Manchester United. Will we see a repeat of the same thing? I wouldn't be surprised if we see Leverkusen's performance decline next season.

I won't blame Leverkusen for appointing Erik Ten Hag as their new manager because it isn't so easy finding a reputable coach this days it seems to be easier when a particular coach has an old time natural love for that particular club. Erik Ten Hag is an experience coach better still has more experience than Xabi Alonso before he took over as Leverkusen manager so I feel Bayer Leverkusen are in safe hands.

The news I read even stated that Man City was also in the race for Espanyol's goalkeeper, Joan Garcia. And I think this is really the golden age of Joan Garcia who really seems to be getting attention from a lot of big clubs at the moment. In fact, other reports say that Man United also seems interested in Joan Garcia's services. But in my opinion, it is very natural that Joan Garcia is a hot topic for many big clubs because Joan Garcia is a goalkeeper who can even help build attacks from behind. So Man City also seems to think Joan Garcia is quite suitable to be in their team.

As per Romano's report, Liverpool is now in talk to sign Kerkez from Bournemouth. This is pretty interesting rumor, right? i meant it seems Arne Slot seems not feel good enough with his available LB. He has Tsimikas and Roberson for such position, but wanted Kerkez.
I must say how Kerkez is also a quality LB, and may be the main reason why Arne Slot wanted him now. It seems Arne is serious to build a quality squad for sure.
He seems aware some of his position need more depth.

It is scary seeing the significant signing Liverpool are bringing in despite winning the league trophy this season. They are looking to dominate the Premier League and win the title again next season. If they succeed in signing Kerkez, Wirtz and Frimpong Liverpool will be a force to battle with next season.

Liverpool are brilliant with their signing, they don't relent to sign players without much deliberations, they pick a perfect fit for the position and in no time sign the players to settle and get on for the next. It is easier for them defending the title by purchasing players at this early stage than going next season having serious gap to fill in, next season won't be easy against Liverpool, the title may end up in their cabin once again if Arsenal or Manchester City don't do anything to stop them.

All this players signed under Liverpool are really good players, they are not seeking for experience or game time, they are master in their respective positions. Liverpool making great advances as the winners of next season Premier League.

Actually his age is not a problem because he still has very good abilities on the field, it's just that his expensive salary is a barrier for clubs that want to recruit him, if his salary is not big I'm sure he is still being fought over by many big clubs and maybe he can still play in Europe again and have no difficulty going anywhere at this time he still wants to continue playing football but unfortunately many clubs object.
I thought after his contract at Al Nassr was over he would decide to retire but it turns out he has not thought about retiring.

He still has a strong physical and still enough to play in Europe, only his salary is quite problematic for the team who wants to recruit him. Now Ronaldo's target is to reach 1000 goals and maybe that's the reason not to decide to retire and still wish to play in Europe. No one knows for sure how his career is now because there might be a surprise that will happen and I just hope he can return to Europe because sometimes his presence in a crucial match can provide more interesting matches.

Sarri close to Lazio.

I think AC Milan has indeed taken the right step by bringing Allegri back to this team to revive this team for next season. because in the first season when Allegri arrived at AC Milan, we immediately saw AC Milan rise and become champions in Serie A. I forget whether it was 2011 or when. However, I am sure that at that time Allegri succeeded in bringing AC Milan to become champions. And now when Allegri is brought back, I hope he can repeat his glory like in the past with AC Milan. And well, better late than never. I like this expression.

The right move from Real Madrid to bring in a defender to strengthen the defense line which is also considered as the main loophole for their failure in several competitions, regeneration plans were heard towards the end of the season, especially for the midfield and defense. I wonder why Liverpool let him go? Alexander-Arnold played for Liverpool for 9 years it is clear that Liverpool's success cannot be separated from his contribution, is it possible that salary is the main reason?

Another interesting thing is Real Madrid is willing to pay a transfer fee for 10 million even though we know next month this player will have free transfer status meaning Madrid could bring him in for free, what speculation is going on here? Real Madrid afraid Alexander-Arnold will be hunted by other teams?

[Adbitco]

Real Madrid football club welcomes Trent Alexander-Arnold to the club. It's understood that Real will pay €10 to Liverpool for Trent services as the deal is complete like this, he will be available for Real Madrid as they will embark for the Club World Cup games. It's still understood that Real Madrid reached a 6 six years deal with Arnold and a release clause of €1B. This is definitely a big and a good signing for the club.
