Tottenham opened talks days ago for Lautaro Martinez offering €70m, also Atletico asked for Lautaro. He’s a real target for Spurs - Inter now say they’ve no intention to sell him this summer.

#THFC After selling Lukaku to Chelsea, Inter plan is to keep Lautaro Martinez.

PSG did not make any offer for Paul Pogba and never negotiated directly with #mufc. PSG will remain attentive to the situation and will return in 2022 if he hasn't extended his United contract #mulive [@le_Parisien via @MUnitedFR]

The 10 players PSG are looking to offload now can join the dozen Barca have on the market, eight or so Madrid would like to sell, similar number Man City want to move on, etc.

Edin Dzeko agreement on personal terms with Inter is confirmed [contract until 2023] but not to replace Lautaro Martinez. Inter want to sign two strikers to replace Lukaku. #Inter Inter want to keep Lautaro despite Tottenham bid. Dzeko could join once Roma find a replacement.

Arsenal are still keeping an eye on Martin Ødegaard. He’s always been the main target as number 10 - if he decides to leave Real and Real decides to sell him, Arsenal will bid for Ødegaard.

#AFC Arsenal would be ready to try also for a permanent move... but it’s up to Real.

Would of liked to have seen Messi play in the PL while he still has some legs but not City. As an American I have barely seen him play. Just the occasional el clasico, Champions League, or Argentina match that gets broadcast here. I guess he will be playing for Atlanta or Miami in a few years just going through the motions to collect a paycheck.

I dont see him going to the states. What paycheck he needs that he has not recieved or will not in the future? Think he will give some more seasons at high level in Europe and then announce retirment.

 

[Theatre of Dreams83]

Messi will defo play and retire in the states I reckon.
