EPL Transfer News : Messi To Chelsea
It seems that Lionel Messi's time at PSG is done. He was recently given a two-week suspension by the team for skipping practice to travel to Saudi Arabia, and there have been rumors that he won't sign a new contract with the Ligue 1 team.
The Argentine has been connected to a move to Al-Hilal, a return to Barcelona, and Inter Miami in the MLS. Many believed that he would stop playing for his country in international soccer after the World Cup and aim to finish his career in the Major League Soccer or the Saudi Professional League. He has, however, remained dedicated to Argentina's national team, leading to rumors that he would like to stay in Europe.
Given the Spanish club's current financial situation, returning to Barcelona would be challenging; nevertheless, a move to the Premier League would be an option. According to a source from Football London, "Chelsea is among the clubs thought to be keen on signing him."
Cristiano Ronaldo is superior to Lionel Messi in the Premier League, which is one of the reasons for this, since the Portuguese star established himself there. He may contribute to Mauricio Pochettino's rebuilding of Chelsea and establish himself in what many supporters consider to be the world's best league there.
EPL Transfer News : Harry Kane To Real Madrid
Another challenging season for Harry Kane at Tottenham Hotspur. The club has dropped to sixth position in the division and is now nine points behind Manchester United, who currently hold the final Champions League spot, despite his 25 goals in 34 Premier League games this season.
A few years back, the England captain attempted to force a transfer to Manchester City. Daniel Levy, the chairman of Tottenham, turned out to be too stern of a negotiator to permit the deal, though. When Kane's contract expires at the end of the upcoming season, the club runs the risk of losing him for free. So it might be time for Spurs to make a profit off of their lucky charm.
Given that he is not far off the Premier League's all-time goalscoring record, Kane is rumored to favor a transfer to another club in the league. With 208 goals, he is second on the list after Alan Shearer, who leads with 260 goals.
Kane's only choice may be to transfer abroad because Levy won't want to allow him to join a rival club. Bayern Munich has been mentioned in connection with him, but Real Madrid is also reportedly interested, according to the Spanish website Diario AS. Kane, who has not yet won a title in his professional career, would undoubtedly find a move to Los Blancos alluring.
La Liga News : Hazard Break his silence
Eden Hazard has stated that he plans to stay at Real Madrid until the rest of his contract, shutting out a summer transfer. With his contract set to expire at the conclusion of the upcoming season, the 32-year-old forward's future at the Santiago Bernabeu is becoming more and more questionable.
The Belgian discussed his preparations for the upcoming campaign with Cadena Cope following Los Blancos' 2-1 victory over Osasuna in the Copa del Rey final over the weekend. "I hope to play," stated Hazard. Although it has been a challenging year, it has a very large club.
"I get along well with the players and the coach. I want to play, but I am aware of how challenging that is. All I can do is work and cross my fingers.
EPL Transfer News : Alexis Mac Allister To Liverpool
Brighton had a very promising season, and it was unfortunate that they were unable to defeat Manchester United in the FA Cup semifinals. The Seagulls, who are now seventh in the Premier League, can still make the playoffs in Europe the following year.
World Cup champion Alexis Mac Allister, who has eight league goals this season from midfield, has been one of Brighton's greatest players. Like many of Brighton's most skilled players in recent years, they are frequently traded to stronger clubs in the division.
Liverpool reportedly presented Alexis Mac Allister with their project and a funding proposal, according to Fabrizio Romano. While negotiations are progressing and the agreement is not yet finalized, the club will persist in the upcoming weeks. It is still believed that Alexis will depart Brighton early, in May or June.
If Mac Allister wants to play at the highest level, he needs to leave Brighton. Liverpool, which is fifth in the division right now, has a chance to make the Champions League.
Transfer News : Ilkay Gundongan Move
Ilkay Gundogan's captain, according to Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola, wants to remain at the Etihad Stadium.
"That is a project of the club. When questioned about the German's current contract, Guardiola responded, "The club knows my opinion, but the club is above me.
"We'll complete it jointly. No matter how wise or foolish, we always make decisions together.
"Gundo scored twice, what a great player he was today, reading the spaces... He is quite intelligent and has an unbelievable run in the final third.
It wasn't essential for me to play so well and score two goals today in order to express how much I value this player, how much I have liked working with him, and how much I hope to do so in the future.
EPL Transfer News : Wilfried Zaha to Chelsea
With 456 appearances for Crystal Palace, Wilfried Zaha has been a stalwart for the team. There have been rumors that he might leave Selhurst Park. He has stayed at Palace despite his desire to play elsewhere.
Early in his career, Zaha had an opportunity to play for Manchester United, but it did not work out, so he went back to Palace. He is already 30 years old, yet the Daily Mail said that "Chelsea are interested in a summer swoop for Crystal Palace forward Wilfried Zaha." This suggests that he may have another chance to go.
EPL Transfer News : David de Gea Move
There are mounting concerns at Manchester United about David de Gea's future as the team's starting goalkeeper, according to the Manchester Evening News. Although Erik ten Hag openly defended the Spaniard following his gaffe in the Red Devils' loss to West Ham, it's been reported that certain higher-ups are hesitant to extend his contract.
De Gea, 32, is in his 12th season at United and is approaching the end of his current contract, although he has still not signed a new one.
EPL Transfer News : Neymar To Newscastle
Recently, several PSG supporters chanted for Neymar to quit the team and demanded that Messi leave the organization. With Newcastle United a potential destination, a transfer to the Premier League might be an option.
The majority owners of Newcastle United, PIF, are reportedly interested in transferring Neymar from Paris Saint-Germain to the Premier League, according to 90min.
Since Eddie Howe's team is third in the Premier League right now, they have a solid chance of making the Champions League for the next year. They will be able to draw players of a greater standard because they are in the top division of European soccer.
Neymar, like Messi, has not yet appeared in the Premier League, therefore a move to Newcastle would provide the Brazilian the chance to do so.
Aston Villa are planning a big double swoop for Dusan Vlahovic and Ferran Torres.
According to Telegraph Sport, Aston Villa is mulling a bold summer signing involving Barcelona winger Ferran Torres and Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic.
Villa has been in incredible form under Unai Emery, and the club is eager to support the Spaniard going into the upcoming campaign.
As Villa works to complete a deal with Mateu Alemany, Barcelona's departing director of football, to join in a senior role, two players of Torres and Vlahovic's caliber are being targeted.
As Kieran Tierney, an Arsenal left back, is anticipated to leave the Emirates Stadium this summer, it is understood that Villa is also seeking to compete with Newcastle United for his services.
The most likely destination for Tierney is thought to be Newcastle, but Villa is also considering a move for the 25-year-old Scotland international, who has dropped behind Oleksandr Zinchenko at Arsenal.
Torres is said to be content to compete for a spot at Barcelona, so it is unclear whether he or Vlahovic would be willing to join the Midlands club.
The Spanish international paid close to £50 million to move from Manchester City to Barcelona in December 2021, and he might demand a similar price this summer.
Vlahovic only joined Juventus in the 2022 winter transfer window after a £58 million initial transfer fee was agreed upon with Fiorentina, but he has had trouble maintaining consistency with the Italian powerhouses.
The Serbian striker had gone nine club games without scoring before scoring in a 2-1 victory over Lecce on Wednesday night. This season, the 23-year-old has made 37 club appearances and scored 12 goals.
Since the beginning of the year, Tierney has started just one Premier League game for Arsenal because Mikel Arteta has decided to partner Zinchenko as an inverted left-back.
