Rumours Center

Anyone with a release clause probably has it set pretty low too.

£20m is the rumour, lots of clubs I'm sure will be happy to pay that so really it's up to the player

Apparantly Gokhan Inler won't even qualify for a winners medal and may be left out of the Swiss national team for first time in ten years - he must be PISSED

Ben Arfa --> Barça

Bad move if he does. His playing style clashes with messi and Neymar and he wont play much. Leicester City should pick him up he's free.

That would be awesome and he would play more than enough.

I don't think he could mentally cope with that or adapt with Barcelona culture. He is too much of a maverick. Could work though.

Barcelona should sign Ayoze Perez, sign a high profile striker past his prime like RVP but well experienced at big clubs and tournaments, loan out Munir and keep Halilovic. Focus mostly on defensive and midfield recruitment in terms of big money signings. Marquinhos, Wendell, Fabinho and Saul/Koke/Pogba.

Barça only have a 60m budget and the main target is a CB... Ben Arfa for free is a very good signing IMO. He just played the best season of his career.

60 million budget? Barcelona? wow.

Well could he repeat that under more pressure and where he would be the lesser player of the three including having to sit on the bench? At Nice he has a free reign to do whatever he pleases. Watch the highlights of his goals and there is no sign of him bothering about what is happening around him. I feel he'll get frustrated and angry at Barcelona but obviously, it could work out, too.

I dont know about his mentality, he looks like another Nasri in this aspect but i think he is a mature player now and if he acepts what playing in the same team as MSN means, he is welcome.

Despite big revenues, Bayern and Barca are run sensibly, or at least somewhat in Barca's case. Bayern generally alternates big spending summers, and Barca are trying to manage debt. Plus, everyone knows that it makes more sense to keep as much of a team together from season to season.

Barça doesnt have much money because its not cheap to keept MSN

So he will assist Messi in the UCL semifinal next season. Not bad.


Marquinhos and Ben Arfa (for free) are very close. That would be amazing.

Apparantly fresh Gundogan injury means city move is off

Sturridge -> Arsenal

Also some writer wrote an article about how Chelsea should resign him but he's too injury prone for my liking (will fit in great at Arsenal)

Edinson Cavani > Juventus/ Atletico

Can anyone explain why cavani doesn't start key games at PSG?

Because Zlatan

Couldn't they both start? Cavani used to play with Lavezzi fine at Napoli

Lavezzi is much more a dynamic and team player (and worse). You can feed Zlatan but its tough to associate with him... also PSG play most of the games 4-3-3 so Cavani is moved to the wing which it isnt his best position.

A better example would be with Suarez in NT but Cavani has similar problems there because doesnt play as CF.
