As his friend Lothar Matthäus confided, relayed by the Mundo Deportivo, Flick really appreciates Florian Wirtz and Jamal Musiala, the two stars of world football. Unfortunately for him, this will only remain at the dream stage since their prices are too high for Barca.

Naples has madness of grandeur

With the rebuild underway, president Aurelio de Laurentiis is set to offer a contract never before seen in the club’s history. We are talking about a gross contract of €60M, with the salaries of Conte’s staff included. The Italian coach would also have control over the transfer window. With Osimhen’s desire to leave, Conte could trust his long-time striker, Romelu Lukaku, and bring him back to the south of Italy. Napoli and Conte want to agree quickly to start planning as soon as possible. The next few days will be decisive, as the president of Napoli recalled.
