Barcelona boss Xavi says he is in talks with 35-year-old Argentina and Paris St-Germain forward Lionel Messi over a sensational summer return to the Camp Nou. (Standard)

But Messi's father and agent Jorge has agreed a two-year deal with Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal worth 1.2bn euros (£1.1bn)

Messi has to sign on the dotted line though and he’s hardly chasing the £€$ ..

He’s available on a free transfer in a week or so I expect him to sign for Barca again unless that crazy La Liga president scuppers the deal ..

As for Chelsea I think one of the most important jobs for Poch is getting rid of a lot of the current squad, not signing new players

Yeah and Poch needs time. Though we gave Potter a decent amount of time and that went nowhere.

But yes, a clear out is needed for sure. Though i think we're in desperate need of a striker. I think it was the lowest goal scoring tally for Chelsea this season in almost 100 years.

Havertz is good on his day, but seriously lacks any kind of consistency. He was a 1 in 5, at best, good game player before this season. This season i've not seen him have more than one or two good games.

Sterling on the other hand, he needs to go. I've never rated him. I know he's had a decent career, but i was in the half of Chelsea fans very much "meh" when we signed him.

who gets wonderkid Fabio Silva from Wolves next season

will he stay with PSV for another season or will Ajax sign him?

[Nicky91]

Ajax looking at Ivorian duo in sweden, Benié Traore and Amane Romeo
--------------


and in eindhoven the search for a new coach has started

rumoured are

Peter Bosz

Adil Ramzi

Pascal Jansen

but it isn't clear yet who they will go for

--
i personally hope for former Man United assistent Rene Meulensteen as our new manager, he is good (learned a lot too from the likes of Sir Alex, Hiddink)

[Denver]

Mac Allister for £60m is a steal

[Denver]

Looks like Thuram will be joining Alexis soon

[Nicky91]

Brentford signs dutch goalkeeper Mark Flekken from SC Freiburg for 13 million


--
amazing transfer for him, after few stunning seasons over in Freiburg, where he helped them this season secure group stage EL for next season :D

[Nicky91]

it's no longer the question if, but to which club Milos Kerkez will go to this summer

the hungarian has had a superb season at AZ, possibly even the best left back on dutch fields

----
main candidate who might sign him is Benfica of former PSV coach Roger Schmidt, and that might mean Champions League for him as they secured the league title last weekend

[Nicky91]

well let some Chelsea b team players come to eindhoven pls, preferably some central defenders, we are in desperate need of something talented for once


hope we can keep Xavi Simons, extend Fabio Silva for one more season, keep Patrick van Aanholt


few new goalkeepers as Benitez, Drommel can go if you ask me

Waterman although has to make a promotion to 2nd choice for the cup matches where we can need his experience most


ditch Jordan Teze asap and sign a proper and actual right back for **** sake


backstabber Veerman can go if you ask me, the one whom was main cause for Van Nistelrooy's departure



the transfer window certainly will be interesting this summer


-------
Ajax too, Van der Sar has left board of directors too there, sooo Sven Mislintat will begin his term as sports director with a whole board, coaching staff, new manager

--------
Fortuna Sittard might make another move on PEC Zwolle coach Dick Schreuder whom they wanted to sign last summer


---------
Vitesse their coach Cocu has upped the main mission for the club, be more ambitious for left side of the leaderboard and he wants to sign Jeroen Zoet as a replacement for the loaned Kjell Scherpen from Brighton, he knows Zoet well from his PSV days

AZ has signed Ruben van Bommel, son of former international Mark van Bommel, from MVV where the midfielder had a expiring contract

[Nicky91]

Arsenal have declared interest in Xavi Simons


idk if he should do that, with already many players departing PSV (and his main reason for possibly staying was CL football, that 2nd place goal was a success, fellow topscorer here next to Utrecht's Douvikas with 30 goals) for his development i'd say stay one more year in eindhoven


he already earned lots of money from his years at PSG, Barcelona anyway so

[Nicky91]

am curious what we're gonna do on the market


first a coach, might be Dick Schreuder i guess, but secretly hoping Bert van Marwijk comeback


we need a forward, not a big name ala yilmaz but lesser ego, more quality teamplayer pls, surprise me i'd say

i hope Siovas, Embalo, Cordoba, Ferati, and also might be unrealistic but Cox too i hope, he is our very solid left back, am happy we extended contracts of Pandur, are negotiating with Bistrovic, i do hope Erdogan stays, although first half of season i disliked him, he is getting better and better

You wont miss any of those players tbh. Only one i'd possibly keep as a bit part player is McTominay.

Havertz looks set for Real Madrid, Spanish media reporting it's a much more likely move than Harry Kane, though Real want both.

£35m for Mac Allister is day light robbery

[bots]

Real Madrid have agreed a deal with Borussia Dortmund to sign England midfielder Jude Bellingham for 103m euros (£88.5m).

The 19-year-old, who joined Dortmund from Birmingham City in July 2020, was one of England's top performers at last year's World Cup.

Bellingham wants the move and will have a medical in the next few days.

The midfielder, who has been linked with some of Europe's top sides, will sign a six-year deal.

Dortmund have confirmed in a statement that the Spanish side have agreed to pay 103m euros, with various potential add-ons on top of that.

If those add-ons are achieved, the deal could reach 133.9m euros (£115m).

Manchester City and Liverpool were two of the sides keen on Bellingham, who is set to become the world's third-most expensive teenager.

No Bellingham is the real deal, I don't normally hype up Blues players in recent years or English players up very often, but Bellingham is the second best English talent around at the moment imo.

Given Kane was forced to stay there a couple of years ago, the same applies, they cant force him to go to another club, he is under contract and paid by spurs until next year.

Maguire is basically able to do the same at Man U and there will be about a dozen players at Chelsea, happy to see out their lucrative contracts

The reality is that from the next January window, Kane can enter into a pre-contract agreement with his next team, and that could easily be Man U for zero transfer fee

not for me personally and neither is Haaland, both whom are too much of ego's for my liking

the likes of Totti, Del Piero, Raul also scored plenty of goals back in their day but were also great team players

he can score lots of goals yes but he needs to have a good supply line of assists, he is likely to have that more at RM than at Man U, especially with ''Mr 100 million'' ego Antony always going for own successes from the right wing position (and Antony is ETH's pet what we all know, he already favoured him a lot at ajax)

West Ham have rejected Arsenal's first bid for England midfielder Declan Rice.

Gunners boss Mikel Arteta has made Rice one of his main transfer targets, with suggestions that a deal was close.

However, it is understood the initial offer for the 24-year-old has left the Hammers unimpressed as it contains a number of clauses.

Sources at West Ham do expect further communication from Arsenal, although they are also anticipating an offer from Manchester City.

managers who return never do as well and he will be playing against a very different Rangers team than the one he did in his first spell!

Well, i dunno, the FFP is so shady, so many loopholes. As for Chelsea buying players, if we can offload Lukaku and Koulibaly to Inter that'll be a good thing. What we desperately need is a striker that can perform on a relatively consistent basis.

It's all such a mess, i dunno what the answer is tbh. We have so many average players that had way too much hype behind them. Hopefully Poch can get them playing. But our main concern is goals.

Brendan Rodgers has agreed terms on a long-term deal to return to Celtic as manager.

It is understood the paperwork is being finalised and an announcement is expected this week.

The 50-year-old won seven trophies during his first spell in Glasgow, including back-to-back domestic trebles, but left for Leicester City midway through the 2018/19 season - much to the frustration of many Celtic fans.

Rodgers is understood to have agreed a deal in excess of his previous Celtic contract, which will make him the highest-paid manager in the club's history again.

Wales captain Aaron Ramsey says he would be open to rejoining Cardiff City "one day" amid uncertainty over his club future.

Ramsey is due to become a free agent at the end of this month having failed to agree a new deal at Ligue 1 club Nice.

The 32-year-old has been linked with a return to Cardiff, where he started his career.

Speaking at an event in his hometown of Caerphilly, Ramsey was asked if he would like to play for Cardiff again.

The 32-year-old said: "That's where I grew up so having that opportunity, and them giving me that opportunity and giving me that platform to go on to what I have achieved so far in my career, I will forever be grateful for [that].

"So for sure one day I would love to go back there, but who knows when that time might be. We'll see.

"There are a few things that need sorting out now over the next few weeks for me.

"The most important thing for me is to enjoy my time off now with my family and to make the right decision going forward for us."

Cardiff are under an EFL transfer embargo - and are currently only able to sign free agents - because they defaulted on payment of the transfer fee for the late Emiliano Sala.

But the Daily Mail claim the Hammers want the guaranteed portion of the fee paid by the start of 2025, preferably in two instalments, with Arsenal wanting to pay the fee over a five-year period.

It is understood Arsenal will continue negotiations with the Irons today over the structure of the deal for Rice

I don't think it was that we couldn't afford him bit was unwilling to do so, FSG don't like spending huge amounts unless they bring in huge amounts

Hopefully they are loaning him back to my beloved Barca for 12 months
