The future of three Bavarians in suspense
In Germany, Bayern is now tackling three big issues. On the one hand, negotiations are progressing positively for Harry Kane and the Englishman is expected to extend until 2029, with a signing expected in the coming days. On the other hand, Alphonso Davies could be allowed to leave if there is a big enough offer. Finally, another defender could leave Bavaria: Kim Min-jae. Indeed, Arsenal is keeping an eye on him, especially after the injury to Piero Hincapié, and could draw out an offer this winter.
Manchester United has become a “circus”
Manchester United continues to be talked about for the wrong reasons. “Circus Act”title it Daily Express. And the formula comes directly from Roy Keane, who believes that Manchester United currently looks like a real circus. The latest controversy concerns Lisandro Martínez. The Argentinian publicly attacked management after the defeat against Atlético, criticizing the club in particular for not having sufficiently strengthened the squad. He has since apologized and been fined, but the footage still illustrates internal tensions. Above all, Keane believes that players should start by looking at their own performances before attacking the club. And the timing is bad for Martínez, whose contract ends in June and whose extension is very far from guaranteed.
Arda Güler, the essential
At Real Madrid, one player is becoming increasingly difficult to leave on the bench: Arda Güler. Against Roma, the Turk completely changed the face of Real after his entry. Two assists, an involvement in the third goal, but also an immediate influence in the game. Daily life A.S. now believes that Mourinho can no longer do without him. Especially since Güler is also at the heart of a new Madrid weapon: set pieces. In Rome, three set pieces from the Turk led to the three goals of the comeback. Real have already scored seven goals from set-pieces this season, proof of the hard work carried out by Mourinho’s staff. But this rise in power necessarily raises the question of hierarchy. The media Sport believes that Mourinho is underutilizing his squad, by remaining too attached to the status of certain executives while Güler, Endrick or Carlos Espí are demanding more minutes on the pitch.
