Football gossip: Rashford, Alonso, Upamecano, Akliouche, Malacia

[Comfort]

Rashford, Alonso, Upamecano, Akliouche, and Malacia are all in the news when it comes to football gossip. Marcus Rashford is reportedly keen on making a permanent switch to Barcelona from Manchester United. The England striker has been at the club on loan since 2022, but he's now prepared to take a pay cut to make the move permanent.

Former Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso is in contention for Pep Guardiola's managerial future at Manchester City. There are growing rumors that Alonso will be one of three men considered for the job when Guardiola retires.

Bayern Munich center-back Dayot Upamecano has signed a new contract with the German club. The 27-year-old France international was linked to several clubs before committing to stay in Munich.

Tyrell Malacia, Manchester United's Dutch defender, is still fuming after his deadline-day move away from Old Trafford was blocked by director of football Jason Wilcox.

The England forward Raheem Sterling, on the other hand, has been turned down by Bundesliga club Union Berlin for a summer transfer.

I'm literally shook about Rashford wanting to leave Man Utd, i mean I get it, he's talented and all but what about his mates? Like, doesn't he owe them some loyalty after all the times they've carried him on loan? And now he's gonna take a pay cut just to join Barca? It feels like he's only thinking of himself... I hope City or another big club comes in and gives him a better offer tho

so rashford wants to go to barca now? i'm not buying it he's always saying one thing and doing another... first it was mancity then liverpool then barcelona? what's his real move? also, what's with these rumors about Alonso for man city? didn't he used to play for them already? seems like a pretty convenient power move... meanwhile, upamecano is staying put at bayern and malacia's still fuming about not getting sold lol... lastly, sterling got turned down by union berlin? that's just embarrassing

I'm not sure why all these big name players are making such huge moves. Rashford wants to go to Barcelona and be willing to take a pay cut? That's crazy! I get that he's only 24, but his skills aren't going to decline anytime soon. And what about the rest of Manchester United - who's gonna pick up where he leaves off?

I'm not sure if Alonso is ready for that kind of responsibility at City. He's a legend on the pitch, but management is such a different beast. I hope whoever takes over does a good job because it'll be huge for the club.

What about Malacia? Blocking his deadline-day move from United was a big decision. Is Wilcox just trying to keep him at home or what? And Sterling being turned down by Union Berlin is surprising. Maybe City should've tried harder to sign him...

I'm not surprised Rashford's making a permanent move to Barcelona . He's shown his quality, but at 23, he's still got big decisions to make about his career. Manchester United might've missed out on some good years with him staying 󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁯.

I'm a bit worried about Malacia tho , the way Wilcox handled that transfer was shady, and now he's still fuming? I think the club needs to sort that out ASAP. Maybe some fresh blood in the management could help resolve things?

On a separate note, who'd have thought Xabi Alonso would be in contention for City's managerial job? He's got some impressive credentials, so you never know what might happen when Guardiola retires.

Anyway, it's all just part of the game, and I'm sure there'll be plenty more twists and turns before the summer window closes .

I'm loving this Rashford to Barcelona talk! I think he's got some decent goals for the Barca fans to sink their teeth into And who knows, maybe he'll bring that Manchester United magic to the Camp Nou... but, on a more serious note, have you seen Upamecano's skills? The guy's a beast Bayern Munich definitely made the right call by keeping him in! Malacia's drama is just wild though – I mean, Jason Wilcox's got some 'splainin' to do

I'm reading this news and I'm like "okay, let's break it down" . Rashford wanting to go to Barcelona? I get why he'd want to try something new, but taking a pay cut is a big ask. I think he should at least negotiate a better deal before making the move permanent .

On the other hand, Xabi Alonso being in the running for Manchester City's job? That's some interesting stuff . I'm not sure if he'd be a good fit for Pep's style, but you never know what might happen when he takes on a new challenge .

Upamecano signing that new contract with Bayern sounds like good news for the club . Malacia still fuming after being blocked from leaving United? That's no way to treat a player . And Sterling getting turned down by Union Berlin? I feel bad for the guy, but at least he'll have other options now .

Anyway, it's all just part of the game, right? Players moving around, managers coming and going... it's like a big puzzle . Let's see how it all plays out!

omg did u know that avocados are like 10 bucks in california rn i just had the best avocado toast at this tiny cafe downtown and it was literally life changing anyway back to football news... i mean if rashford is gonna leave man united, maybe they should just sell all their players and start from scratch lol wouldn't that be crazy also upamecano signed a new contract but like when is he actually gonna move? his last season with bayern was pretty decent

Just had to follow the football gossip ... seems like there's always drama brewing in the world of sports! Anyway, I'm curious about Marcus Rashford and his potential move to Barcelona. 20 million a year is a decent chunk of change, but if he wants to make a permanent switch, it must mean something more for him.
