Hearing Manchester City are interested in bringing Gvardiol and Kovasic triggers my curiosity to ask what Guardiola is planning for the coming season. Manchester City are in good shape at the moment and still have enough firepower in their reserves, if they successfully add both players to the squad they will be a team to be feared in the league next season.

Manchester City is targeting to spend 120 million euros to get new players in preparation for next season. Josko Gvardiol and Mateo Kovacic two are good Croatia international players that can add to the quality of City. The RB Leipzig defender will be a great plus to the defensive line up and Kovacic have been one of the best players in Chelsea. And the failure to qualify for the Champions League will be one of the motivating factors that is pushing the Chelsea midfielder to depart from Stamford Bridge.

But we have to wait for the clubs involved to announce the deal because the news is that the players and City have made a verbal agreement. Chelsea wants to extend the contract of the Croatian international but the club will have to let him leave if he insists. Chelsea will not make much money from his deal because he is in the final year of his contract. RB Leipzig will make money from the sale of Josko because his exit clause in RB Leipzig's contract for 2024 is worth about €110 million. Will City be willing to make him the most expensive central defender in the world?

If there is something that we all know, it is that Pep always has ways of surprising us, as far as I am concerned, Guardioola is one of those players who always has an Ace up his sleeve, perhaps Pep knows that any movement can give him a victory without so many suffer us and he wants to cover those gaps that he can see or the vulnerability in the team that he can heal, however if Pep gave him that possibility it is obvious that he will take it to take advantage of buying the players that he sees that he will have complementing well his team, it is known that the PL will be tougher now more than ever, he only makes the pertinent movements.

No one can doubt that Mbappe is a good player and he'd improve the squad of the Gunners but I don't think Arsenal needs such a player RN. He's got a self-centered mentality and I doubt he'd be able to fit in the team. What Arsenal needs is not just any kind of forward, but one who would be willing to share chances when he's not in a position to score, not a childish player who stops putting effort the moment he does not see the ball.

Apart from that, I also don't see rumors about Mbappe going to Arsenal from PSG and I also think that Mbappe is really not suitable for Arsenal. Because Arsenal need more players who can work together and don't blame each other and give vent to their selfishness on the field so that a typical player like Mbappe is slightly less suited to the character of the Arsenal team and for now I actually have more confidence in Mbappe who will stay at PSG rather than leave to another team.

No, Mbappé in the best of cases would like to go to Real Madrid, but he knows that he himself did it all wrong when he said no to Madrid once, so the yellow press says that Madrid is not going to give all the money that PSG asked for him, and we all know that is a vile and vulgar lie, Madrid has everything so that they can buy Madrid when they can and want, the amount doesn't matter, we all know that when Madrid wants something they get it, and they have no financial problems.

Mbappé will not go to Arsenal either, the truth is I don't see him there, he will stay at PSG, he has no other better option, also the years go by and he is no longer as coveted as before, and apart from this we know that Madrid will He likes to sign very young players and who want promise, I think that Madrid will not have an option for him but for another.

Exclusive: Fabrizio Romano clarifies Kylian Mbappe Arsenal and Real Madrid transfer situation

Quote

The Paris Saint-Germain and France superstar has been linked with a host of big names in recent times, and Romano has specifically moved to address surprise links with Arsenal that have emerged in the last couple of days.

It’s hard to imagine a signing like Mbappe for Arsenal, and it seems that the stories may well be too good to be true.

Romano isn’t one for baseless speculation, reporting only on the most reliable transfer news, and it seems he’s not heard anything about the Gunners holding any concrete talks over signing Mbappe.

They can say a lot, but for me it won't go away.

Sunday's gossip:

Al-Nassr are considering bringing goalkeeper David de Gea, 32, to Saudi Arabia after the goalkeeper's Manchester United contract expired. Just a few days ago, it seemed that David de Gea would stay at Manchester United. Has something changed?
Real Madrid hope to rival Barcelona in the bid to sign Fenerbahce's highly rated attacking midfielder Arda Guler. The Turkish 18-year-old has a reported £15m release clause in his contract, which runs out in 2025. An interesting race between Real and Barcelona for a relatively unknown footballer. Who will bring him? Grin

Arsenal are keen to complete four deals in a week - the signings of Timber and Rice, and new contracts for defender William Saliba, 22, and winger Reiss Nelson, 23. Arsenal's very ambitious plan, will they be able to achieve it?
Germany forward Kai Havertz, 24, has become Arsenal's highest-paid player on £17m a year after joining from London rivals Chelsea. Will Havertz justify such a high salary?

I love Daniel91's gossip, very accurate, in fact I thought De Gea was going to stay at Manchester, I've seen a lot of gossip that he was going to another team in Europe, but wow Arabia? It's not bad for the player to have a large inflow of money, I think he would put everything on a scale and say that the best thing is a good slice of money, with the option of continuing to grow in football and not choosing to go to a league like the MLS where everyone gets ready to retire, with respect to Arda Guler I think that here the one who offers the most money for him will win, and if so obviously Madrid will win, there is no doubt about it, also He has the profile that this White team likes, a new player, promise and really a new discovery, here everything depends on Arda Guler where he wants to go, but he doesn't make the same mistake as Mbappé, saying no to Madrid in a moment , is to say no forever.

Regarding Arsenal, I hope that everything that is in their demands materializes, this team is very valuable, they need to get ahead with everything, for me it is a great promise, as it happens to me with Newcastle, and the salaries are justified for when the performance of each player makes them Champions , if not you have to ask the Dortmund team that they almost made it, and it is a team that forms stars and always has them ready to sell, it is their business model , but since they They came so close to victory, because we will see how they will be this time in a new season in the great Bundesliga that many considered boring due to the hegemony of a Bayern.

We must know the main problem, Mbappe wants to stay with PSG for one more season because he has a bonus if playing one more season based on the contract agreement, but he did not want to extend the contract here we can assume that he pursues a bonus. While PSG doesn't want to be like that because next season he can go and PSG doesn't get anything as free transfer so PSG must get a new contract at least until 2025 in this situation, of course PSG is uncomfortable and they can just release mbappe in this transfer window or in the middle of the season what is clear before the contract ended in June 2024.

I don't really know if that bonus that Mbappe would receive is really that big of a problem for Paris Saint Germain. In the end they are owned by a sheikh and everything gets paid by him anyway so that bonus payment should not be that big of a problem. I also don't think that Mbappe's main reason why he wants to stay another year at PSG is that bonus. As far as i know he is earning 72 Million € per season at PSG at the moment which makes him the best paid footballer in Europe by far. So he does not really need that additional money i would guess.
I think that Mbappe will stay another year because his primary target, Real Madrid can not buy him in this summer because they have already bought Bellingham and Real has pretty high debts already. So they need to wait until the end of the coming season to sign Mbappe.

The truth is I don't see a Mbappé at Real Madrid and for obvious reasons, as far as I'm concerned, another season Madrid will be interested in another player, time passes and Madrid knows that and Florentino Pérez doesn't like players that they are over 22 years old, so Mbappé I already think he may be at an age where his competition starting with Haaland who for me is much better than Mbappé, so I would not say nor would I want Mbappé to go to Madrid, I think At PSG he would do very well.

Perhaps an Mbappé who likes being where the sheikhs are so much because he is obviously much more interested in money, I don't blame him, I think we all work for money, but here the opportunities are unique, I would dare to say that Mbappé in a In the future he will go to one of the teams in Saudi Arabia, who will offer him much more money there than before.
