Summer Mercato - 2025
I forgot where I read this, but someone praises Emerson Royal's agent who must be unbelievably good otherwise how can he ever play for teams like Tottenham, Barcelona and AC Milan? Crazy indeed.
With James McAtee joining Nottingham, we’ll move forward with Musah. That wraps up our midfield roster, now complete with six players.

Some pundits believe we'll target both a center forward and a center back, hinting at deepening the squad for 3 FWs or 3 CBs formation. However, it seems all eyes are on Højlund right now, especially since there's been no concrete move for a center back after De Winter.

Interested in: Rasmus Højlund
Be interested: Bennacer, Adli, Musah, Okafor

Newcomers (7): Ricci, Modric, P. Terraciano, Estupiñán, Jashari, De Winter, Athekame
Gone (20): F. Terraciano, Lazetic, Thiaw, Liberali, Colombo, Royal, Vasquez, Pobega, Sportiello, Theo, Reijnders, Kalulu, Pellegrino, Jovic, Abraham, Walker, Felix, Sottil, Florenzi, Morata
Studying abroad (5): Camarda, Zeroli, Comotto, Bondo, Magni

GK (3): Maignan, P. Terraciano, Torriani
Defender (8): Gabbia, Tomori, Pavlovic, De Winter, Bartesaghi, Estupiñán, Athekame, Saelemaekers
Midfielder (6): Ricci, Jashari, Modric, Fofana, Cheek, Musah
Attacker (6): Leao, Pulisic, Gimenez, Jimenez, Chukwueze, Okafor
Also Chiesa scored a goal and suddenly the rumours started again.

Even 10 matches for the Brazilian national team. At some point in his career he must have played one good match? I didn't see it though and I've never heard of anyone else seeing it either.
Brazilian head coaches are often known for selecting and showcasing as many players as possible, partly to boost their market value.  Idea

This strategy benefits the country's football exports, enhancing visibility and transfer opportunities abroad.


Emerson Royal could be considered the biggest beneficiary.  Exclamation

Ironically, one of the country's biggest clubs has now become its greatest casualty.  Icon_lol2

If so I'd say the Brazilian NT has become it's own casualty. They're not what they used to be.
Reijnders MoM in PL debut. Rating 9/10. Guardiola heaps praise on him calling him one of the best signings in Man City club history.
The clash between Man Utd and Arsenal is playing without 2 players registered: Hojlund and Kiwior.

Højlund will probably come to Milan. New rumour is that Kiwior could be used in swap deal with Eze from Crystal Palace.
Laporte looks set to terminate his contract with Al Nassr. Como looking to sign him. If he’s free, maybe we can try to grab him. Has a ton of experience, won the PL several times and also the champions league with City.
