The competition is different now, so Kylian Mbappe must be able to make a decision before it's too late because he also still has plenty of time to make his career grow and be more famous in a better team. And I would also be very happy if Kylian Mbappe could be in the Real Madrid team next season.
Mbappe is a great young player with a million talents he has.
He managed to win several titles at the 2018 World Cup at a very, very young age.
From these titles we can see what Mbappe's career and success will be like in the world of football.
If he is successfully owned by Real Madrid, it will also make him have a brighter future because Real Madrid is a big team and is loved by so many fanatical fans.
With Mbappe playing for Real Madrid there is a big chance they could have a chance for the Champions League next season.
There is no doubt that Mbappe achievements are great at a young age, if he is in the right club then he will have many achievements. Maybe will same with Haaland which is currently at Manchester City. Also Mbappe performance will improving every season too, but unfortunately he still insists on staying at PSG. Real Madrid also have interest in him and every season there will be rumors linking Mbappe and Real Madrid, last rumors Mbappe said had no intention of extending his contract at PSG, but maybe he will stay at PSG and extend his contract like last season.
Personally, I would like Mbappé to go to a team other than MADRID, in fact if he goes to Madrid I would be disappointed in Florentino Pérez because it would be the first time that he would accept a player who previously said no to Madrid, and I would start to question the presidency of Florentino Pérez, that's why I don't like these things at all for them to happen, Mbappé is an incredible player, but he already said no once, that they say yes and accept it, it would be a lot of despair that this club has, it would not be right, because you should always advance what is preached, and you would be failing under all circumstances if they sign you.

Xavi arrived at a time when Barcelona really needed a coach who knew the team's needs and he was the right person. Xavi even volunteered to manage this team so that it grew to be normal for 1 full season. As a result, they managed to win back the La Liga trophy and secure Champions League tickets. This means that under Xavi leadership it has shown changes in the right direction. With so many financial problems, player salaries being cut, and many people's doubts about Xavi, he has proven that finances are not the main thing, but player loyalty to the team has made all of Barcelona's journeys find their way again. Every journey taken has not always been smooth, Barcelona was knocked out of the Europa League but that did not make them return there next season and rise to the Champions League as in their previous footsteps.

You could say that Xavi has succeeded in bringing Barcelona back to win La Liga, but there is a lot that Xavi has to correct, whether it's the system, players, rotation, and every policy he carries out with his team. especially if Barcelona wants to be more competitive next season, especially in the Champions League competition. I am well aware, Xavi has come to bring big changes. But that doesn't mean we can't criticize it. As a supporter, I am happy to see my favorite team win the League trophy, an achievement that I must appreciate.

But to be honest, sometimes I don't enjoy when they go game by game. I mean, there are several matches that are played with bad games. although in the end, they won the game. and hopefully, next season Xavi will be able to improve the mentality and performance of his team and at the same time fix the system he applies to his squad. at least in the 2023/2024 season, Barcelona must be stronger than the previous season. even with limited funds, Xavi's approach to bringing in newcomers deserves a thumbs up. now, Barca has brought in Gundohan. rumors, there are several other newcomers who will soon join Barcelona. at least, they need a second tier player who is not much different from the starting eleven players. thus, hopefully Barcelona will be much more competitive.

Yes, I totally agree with what you're saying, personally I think Xavi has to change his entire context, that includes his strategy, his game system, it's a game system that's very easy for many other teams to read, It is well known that things could be better here, that is why they won the League, if I grant that they have won something but we all know that this League win was what Xavi needed to have won his position and they would not have fired, but they gained something else? a respectable competition during that period? they had everything to win the Europa League, they didn't, they fell in the Europa League and even though they had a tough player like Lewa, I don't want to say that the others are bad, but Lewa would have achieved more with his previous team in Bayern than with the Barcelona.

I don't think Barcelona needs new players, the ones they have are enough to do a good job, the one who has to change the way they play or do and direct is Xavi, because if he continues to apply the same strategies, this time he won't win not a single league more.

Barcelona are considering the sale of talented youngster Angel Alarcon, according to a report emanating from Catalonia.

Alarcon, 19, made five appearances for Barcelona’s senior side last season, sharing game time between the under-19s, Barca Atletic, and Xavi Hernandez’s squad.

As per La Portera de Nunez, Barcelona will try to sell him this summer, but include a buyback option. Reports recently emerged that Udinese were interested in loaning Alarcon, and the information goes on to claim that his agent is keen to see Alarcon move to Italy.

Barcelona would rather a move within Spain, but this is clearly dependent on what offers arrive for him.

We have to wait and see how everything he wants or what Xavi has in mind performs, renewing his squad? It may be, but I think the main idea here is to change and do things completely differently, starting again with Pep Guardiola's tiki taka=? I don't think so, that tiki taka only works with Messi and with Xavi and Iniesta playing on the field, otherwise I don't think it works for them, maybe with a Lewa, but it doesn't guarantee that they will make a big profit, seeing a Barcelona like that Currently, I see it as impossible.

I don't believe in that statement, if Real Madrid want to be even better next season then they have to bring in more players because this season they were left behind by some of their main players, and even now there are many old players at Real Madrid whose quality has decreased.
The position of attacker and defender is Real Madrid's weak point next season and if the current transfer market does not buy the players needed in these positions, then Real Madrid's strength will not be much different from the previous season. For the midfield position they have Bellingham as a new force that can help Real Madrid and I think that position is safe for them next season.
The positions of attackers and defenders at Real Madrid have been weak for the past two seasons and last season Madrid also did not fix the weaknesses in that position, making it easy for them to get knocked out when playing in the Champions League.
For La Liga itself, Madrid is strong enough and able to compete with all the teams there, but Madrid's goal is not only La Liga but also other truly prestigious leagues such as the Champions League.
The transfer season is not far away and the games will start at the start of the summer so if Madrid doesn't make a move soon I'm sure they will stay the same in that they will only win the Domestic League.
A defensive line that contains Vinicius Jnr, Karim Benzema and Rodri, Ascensio, and many more, is a good one. These guys are not an easy side to defend against.  Last season was very tough, many against clubs experienced the same. Barcelona's squad ain't as strong as Real Madrid's. Other factors warranted the exit of Madrid from the Champions League. I will opinion that Midfield is the weak part of the team as it is Madrid up of old stars who have already played out their strength. Among these are Kroose and Modric who is still much in love with football, there should be a strong option that can feel In that position for them in some matches.

It is a fact, Real Madrid needs a restructuring, in general there is a lot of speculation that Mbappé can go to Madrid, neither now nor in any other season, as I have said before, the tabloid press says that the value of Mbappé is that it asks to sell it is very expensive, and that is not why, Real Madrid has that money and much more, another dare is that they do not want it, and that Madrid has a great diplomacy to say no in a subtle way, making it appear that other players need, so for those who believe that they are going to go to Madrid, it will not be like that, and I justify the usual, those players who say No to Madrid will not be able to enter anymore.

With respect to the veteran players in Madrid, yes, the fact is that there are many, but they are conceited, can't we leave a whole squad of promising players, young and without any kind of experience, to get a replacement for Benzema? They say that no one is indispensable, or let's ask Bayern if they have been able to replace Lewa, in this order of ideas, I don't think he will have a replacement for now, but this is a team, everyone's strength is needed so that they can cover that big hole left by the kitten Benzema.
