This winter transfer window, Manchester City quickly secured the signings of two promising young defenders, Huseynov and Res, and also prepared a five-year contract worth 30 million euros for Juventus' full-back Cambiasso. In no time, Manchester City's defense completed its generational transition. On the front line, Coach Guardiola has set his sights on Marmoush from Bundesliga's Eintracht Frankfurt, but the two clubs have not been able to agree on the transfer fee. Besides Marmoush, Spanish media fichajes revealed that Manchester City hopes to bring in Rafinha from Barcelona during the summer window. Manchester City's rebuilding work is swift and decisive because they are not short of funds and are willing to invest in the transfer market. According to Spanish media reports, Manchester City is willing to pay 84 million pounds to bring in Rafinha from FC Barcelona this summer. Manchester City has long been interested in Rafinha, hoping to strengthen their attack with a player who has performed outstandingly in La Liga. This season, Manchester City once faced a problem of lacking firepower up front. On the forward line, apart from Haaland, the other two wingers hardly score goals. The four major wingers, Nunes, Savigno, Doku, and Grealish, have only scored four goals in the Premier League. On the contrary, the 28-year-old Rafinha is very good at scoring goals. He shone in his third season at Barcelona, scoring 22 goals and providing 9 assists in 29 games, forming a top attacking trio in European football with Lewandowski and Yamar. Rafinha's fiery performance successfully caught the attention of Guardiola. If two…

AC Milan, a Serie A powerhouse, has not had a satisfactory season so far, currently ranking only 8th in the league. Although they changed their head coach before the winter transfer window, with Portuguese manager Conceicao taking over, after some observation, it became clear that some players in the Milan squad did not meet his requirements. As a result, Milan has been very active in this year's winter transfer window, having already secured Manchester City defender Walker and now seeking another forward. According to "La Gazzetta dello Sport," Milan plans to sell two defenders, Emerson and Pavlovic, to raise funds for Feyenoord's striker Santiago Simón. Feyenoord is asking for a fee of 40 million euros for the efficient goalscorer. Mexican forward Simón was born on April 18, 2001, starting his career at Cruz Azul in Mexico before transferring to Feyenoord in the summer of 2022 for 6 million euros. Standing at 1.83 meters tall and weighing 73 kilograms, Simón may not be particularly fast, but he is physically strong, good at positioning, possesses decent technique and goal-scoring awareness, and finishes decisively. Primarily a center-forward, Simón can also play as a second striker. Since joining Feyenoord, Simón quickly became the team's main center-forward, scoring 62 goals and providing 14 assists in 103 appearances. This season, despite an injury, he returned in November and his form remained unaffected. In 17 matches across various competitions, he scored 13 goals and provided 3 assists, contributing to 16 goals in total, remaining the team's most reliable source of firepower. Simón's contract expires in June 2027,…

In this year's winter transfer window, the biggest transfer so far is probably Malmush's move to Manchester City. According to media reports, the transfer fee is a fixed 75 million euros plus 5 million euros in variables, potentially reaching a maximum of 80 million euros. Eintracht Frankfurt has made significant profits in recent seasons through player sales. Just from the sales of free signings like Mouani and Malmush, they have achieved a net income of 170 million euros. It must be said that Frankfurt's scouting system is indeed impressive, always managing to find cost-effective forwards. Now that Malmush has left, Frankfurt is once again on the hunt for their next star striker, with their main target currently being Marseille's forward Wahid. Wahid was born on January 2, 2003, holding dual French and Ivorian nationalities. He started his career at Montpellier's training camp in Ligue 1 and joined the first team in the 2020-21 season. The young Wahid quickly became Montpellier's starting forward. In the 2022-23 season, at less than 20 years old, he had an outstanding season, starting 28 times in 32 Ligue 1 matches, scoring 19 goals and providing 5 assists, performing exceptionally well. Wahid was also the starting forward for various levels of the French youth teams, scoring 2 goals in the U19 European Championship in 2022. His outstanding performances at both the club and national youth levels made Wahid a rising star in French football. In the summer of 2023, Lens signed Wahid for 30 million euros, at which point his market value reached a high of…

Before the game, Guangdong Men's Basketball Team made a major announcement that set off a storm in the basketball world - they have re-signed Bazley!

However, Guangdong Men's Basketball Team made a confusing decision in the second stage - to cut Bazley. This move raised widespread doubts at the time, after all, how could such an all-round foreign aid be easily let go? However, reality has proven that Guangdong Men's Basketball Team's "new aid" Armes failed to deliver a satisfactory performance, not even reaching one-third of Bazley's level. This "mistake" prompted Zhu Fangyu to make a wise decision again - to re-sign Bazley, and upgrade the contract to a permanent contract! This move is undoubtedly to protect the team's championship dream. Liaoning Men's Basketball Team suffers another defeat, Yang Ming faces immense pressure!

On the training roster, although due to incomplete naturalization procedures, Xiao Oscar and Sergi Sergio have not yet been able to join as hoped, their names have already stirred up waves of excitement among fans. The anticipation of these two players joining has undoubtedly added endless possibilities to the future of the national team.

On January 12th at 19:44, Beijing time, the third round of the FA Cup continued with a match between Manchester City, ranked sixth in the Premier League, hosting Salford City, who are second in League Two. Salford City's total team value is only 3.38 million euros, which cannot be compared to the 1.25 billion euro powerhouse that is Manchester City. However, Salford City has been in excellent form recently, securing six consecutive victories in the league. In their last nine games, Salford City won eight and also advanced smoothly in the FA Cup. Manchester City finally broke out of their slump of one win in 12 matches, achieving consecutive victories over Leicester City and West Ham United, welcoming a long-awaited winning streak for the "Blue Moon." Without suspense, Pep Guardiola made significant changes to the starting lineup, giving players like Grealish and McTominay the opportunity to start. After the opening whistle, Doku was extremely active. In the 8th minute, Nunes intercepted the ball in the backfield, dribbled more than 20 meters before passing it, and Grealish quickly distributed the ball to the left flank. Doku took a shot without stopping the ball, aiming for the far corner. The ball hit the post and bounced into the net. In the 12th minute, Doku attempted a shot after simple dribbling outside the penalty area, but the ball went wide. Manchester City's attacks were relentless, leaving Salford City struggling to cope, becoming increasingly passive. Meanwhile, Manchester City displayed their rich array of offensive tactics. In the 16th minute, Manchester City's cross created a…

In the first game of the new year, Real Madrid won cleanly against Valencia, securing the top spot on the leaderboard with a comeback victory. This is undoubtedly a cause for celebration, as who wouldn't enjoy seeing their team at the top of the standings? However, a closer look reveals that this victory was not as glorious as the score suggests. Vinicius Junior (referred to as Vinicius) was sent off with a red card due to an impulsive act, shifting the focus from the win to an "incident," and even sparking internal strife in the locker room after the match. Behind this, the role of Kylian Mbappé is particularly intriguing. Vinicius' red card, Mbappé's "advice," and the potential major cleanup at Real Madrid have all come together to create a "palace drama" within the football world. During the match, Mbappé repeatedly tried to dissuade Vinicius from losing control of his emotions. Many see this behavior as a display of leadership, as it takes courage to step up and prevent a teammate from acting impulsively in such tense moments. However, there seems to be more to his actions and subsequent statements. According to reports, Mbappé publicly stated after the game that he hopes the club will sell Vinicius. His reasoning sounds reasonable – the team needs more stable and reliable players. However, external interpretations are not so simple. Some analysts believe that this is Mbappé taking the opportunity to push out Vinicius and consolidate his position as the core of Real Madrid. After all, since joining Real Madrid, Mbappé has been…

‌£80 Million! Manchester United's Desired Striker Priced at a Hefty Tag; A Major Squad Overhaul Needed to Sign Him On January 4th, Beijing time, British media iNews' famous journalist Peter Hall updated the latest transfer situation between Sporting Portugal striker Zekai Rais and Manchester United. According to his report, Manchester United manager Amorim sees Zekai Rais as an ideal center forward and is eager to reunite with his former disciple. However, Sporting Portugal has set a price tag of £80 million, which means that if Manchester United wants to successfully acquire this tough player, they must first clean up their existing squad to raise funds. After taking over Manchester United midway through the season, the ambitious Amorim led the team in 11 matches across various competitions, winning only 4 but losing a full 6, with a win rate of just 36.3%. Especially in the last 4 games, Manchester United suffered 4 consecutive defeats, putting Amorim on the hot seat. And it doesn't end there, because in the upcoming Premier League and FA Cup matches, Manchester United will face two strong opponents, Liverpool and Arsenal, and a six-game losing streak may just be a matter of time. Currently, Manchester United's biggest problem is their lackluster offensive methods, with several frontline players' states failing to satisfy. In the last round of the Premier League, they suffered a humiliating 0-3 home defeat to Bournemouth, with forward Zirkze being substituted after only 33 minutes, but despite Manchester United's adjustments, they ultimately failed to score even a single goal. In this situation, despite facing financial…
