MU is about to have Mata and Herrera; Liverpool breaks the transfer record for Barca's "flop"?

Liverpool ready to break transfer record for Barca's "flop"

According to British media, coach Klopp wants to recruit Barca striker, Dembele. The 21-year-old French player has had many difficulties in integrating with the Nou Camp team since joining in August 2017 with a fee of 135.5 million pounds from Dortmund.

To convince Barca to sell Dembele in the upcoming winter transfer window, Klopp plans to make an offer of up to £85 million. If successful, the 2018 World Cup champion will break the transfer record of the Anfield team. Virgil van Dijk is currently the most expensive player in Liverpool's history, having joined from Southampton for a fee of £75 million in January 2017.

Last weekend, Dembele was dropped by coach Ernesto Valverde from the squad for the 3-4 loss to Real Betis at the Nou Camp. The former Dortmund player received an internal penalty for violating time discipline, often arriving late to training. Even in the match against Betis, Dembele arrived late and had to watch the match from the stands.

Solari signs contract to coach Real until 2021

Real Madrid have officially appointed Santiago Solari as the team's permanent coach. The two sides have signed a contract that runs until the summer of 2021. Real decided to put their trust in Solari after witnessing his achievements as interim coach, replacing the fired Julen Lopetegui.

In the four matches under Solari's guidance, Real won all of them, scoring 15 goals and conceding only 2. Solari thus entered Real Madrid history as the coach with the best start since 1957.

Zidane was invited by MU, PSG and Bayern at the same time

According to journalist Eduardo Inda's revelation in the Spanish TV program El Chiringuito, Zinedine Zidane received 3 attractive offers to return to coaching at the same time, including MU, PSG and Bayern Munich.

Zidane is currently the favorite candidate to replace Mourinho at MU. However, the Red Devils will not easily get the French football legend because the rich team PSG is willing to spend a lot of money to get the nod of the 46-year-old coach.

Not only that, Bayern Munich also relied on Zidane to replace Niko Kovac, who had a disappointing start at Allianz Arena.

Interestingly, Zidane has a very good relationship with Bayern sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic.

"Zidane has had two offers in the past few days, from Manchester United and PSG. Most recently, Bayern Munich also made an offer. They want Zidane to sit in the "hot seat" next season."

Man Utd about to tie down Mata and Herrera

Sky Sportssaid that the contract negotiation process between Man Utd and the Spanish duo is going smoothly. Both are in the final year of their contracts at Old Trafford, and both want to continue contributing to the red shirt.

Joe Cole retires

The English midfielder retired at the age of 37. The last club Joe Cole played for was Tampa Bay Rowdies. Before that, Joe Cole was a top star in the Premier League as well as the England team. He played for Chelsea for seven years, and for England for nine years.

Lindelof won the Swedish Golden Ball

On the night of November 12, the Swedish Football Association held a gala to award the Golden Ball 2018. Manchester United midfielder Victor Lindelof beat a number of candidates to be honored. Last year, Lindelof did not play very well at MU, but in terms of the national team, he was a safe choice in the center of defense. At the 2018 World Cup, Lindelof played quite impressively.

Lindelof is the next player to receive the most prestigious award in Swedish football. In 2017, the Golden Ball went to Andreas Granqvist (Krasnodar Club). Before that, former MU striker, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, won the Swedish Golden Ball for 10 consecutive years (2007-2016).
