The big sale in the summer window of the five major leagues: Manchester United and Chelsea have become a "supermarket", and where Neymar goes has become a mystery!

As soon as Alonso announced his resignation, Leverkusen hung up the "supermarket" sign. This operation seems a bit like a bridge breaking through the river, but if you think about it carefully, you can understand it - after all, the player's value is like the stock market, and it rises faster and falls faster. You said that you don’t take advantage of the high position to cash out now, will you wait until the new coach comes and kicks it before selling?

The most interesting thing is that Leverkusen's operation is quite a bit like "precisely cutting leeks". For example, a midfielder, who had just made a name for himself last season, immediately priced three times; the veteran in the defense line clearly had only half a year left in the contract, and he was using the name of "rich experience" to pay a high price. The fans joked: "Alonso didn't take away a cloud when he left, but he left a book called "Player Cashback Guide" for the team."

But then again, this "supermarket model" may be a way to survive for small teams. After all, it is not like the Premier League giants who are rich and powerful. If Leverkusen doesn’t make a big profit in the window period, what will he buy next season? It was just that those players who had just made a name for themselves thought they could make a career with the new coach, but suddenly they became "commodities" on the shelves.

Manchester United: It would be fine if you don’t have the European game, why did you turn the locker room into a "palace drama"?

Manchester United has been in a mess this season. First, they didn't get the qualification for the European war, but now they have to make drastic layoffs - 13 people sell it when they say it, which is even more ruthless than clearing up the stock in supermarkets. The most sad thing is Garnacho's incident: The young man obviously played well, with 11 goals and 10 assists in 58 games. Which team is not the future star? As a result, the coach was notified to "find his next home" in public, which was like bullying in the workplace.

I heard that he said in an interview that "I want to be the next Ronaldo", but his teammates secretly complained that it was "too inflated". This is a bit strange: What's wrong with young people having a little ambition? Besides, when Ronaldo was at Manchester United, wasn’t it because of “Little Ronaldo”? Now, the coach doesn’t like it, and the teammates don’t like it. Garnacho is a perfect “Growth of a Genius Boy” and “Supporting role in a Palace Fighting Drama”.

and Rashford played well in Villa, but was sold at a price of 40 million when he returned to Manchester United. It's sarcastic to think about it: You said he was in a bad state, he scored goals in other teams; you said he was in a good state, Manchester United was determined to sell it. What's even more funny is that Riyadh has spent 80 million on the New Moon, and his team is still hesitating - go to Saudi Arabia, the money is much, but his career is basically explained; if you don't go, Manchester United is in a hurry to exchange him for Osmayen. This is not a transfer, it is clearly a "human test" of clearly marked prices.

Chelsea: Get the qualification for the Champions League, but it turns itself into a "player recycling bin".

The most magical thing about Chelsea is that others clean up players because of poor results. It is better. If you get the qualification for the Champions League, you will sell 14 people. You said the lineup is bloated. It is true that everyone has a headache when they look at the 34-person roster. But the question is, who bought so many people at the beginning? Now, the value of the out-of-the-billion players has plummeted, their youth training has no place, and the newly bought Essugo has occupied the quota, which is simply "digging your own pit and jumping by yourself."

Sterling's most typical case: a weekly salary of 325,000 pounds, and he played like a sleepwalking on loan at Arsenal. Now no one takes over, so he can only lose his hands. There is also Nkunku, who bought it back with £52.7 million and scored 3 goals in the league. Now if you want to go back to the Bundesliga, you have to sell it at a discount. The fans complained: "Chelsea is not a buyer, it is clearly doing charity - taking over at a high price, selling at a low price, and helping other teams digest the burden of high salary."

But the most incomprehensible thing is that they are busy selling people here, and they are talking about Gittens with Dortmund and Drapp with Ipswich. Co-author: This is not cleaning, but "emptying the cage and replacing the bird"? I just don’t know if the new young people can find their place in this messy lineup.

Nemar: I am 33 years old and am still betting on fate. This matter of Neymar is like a bloody drama no matter how you look at it. Back then, he went to Paris with a transfer fee of 220 million euros and said he wanted to "break the monopoly of Mero Ronaldo." As a result, he kept getting injured and had more private life than the news of the stadium. Now he is 33 years old. He has been back to Santos for 5 months, with a monthly salary of 636,000 euros, plus a sponsorship fee of 13 million yuan - this is not a football player, it is clearly a way to make money by spending money in retirement.

But what's interesting is that he still has the dream of the World Cup in his heart. Ancelotti said, "As long as you are healthy, you can stay in a place." This sounds like politeness and temptation. Think about it, Neymar is 35 years old in the 2026 US, Canada and Mexico World Cup. No matter how good the condition is, Brazil really needs a "glass man" forward? The more realistic question is whether Santos wants to renew his contract - high salary is one aspect, the key is his current competitive state, is it really worth the price?

To put it seriously, Neymar's career has long passed the stage of "pursuing honor", and now every step is racing against time. Return to the top five leagues? The possibility is not without it, but which wealthy family dares to bet on his injuries? Stay in Santos? Maybe one day I will be squeezed down by the young player. The most helpless thing is that he accumulated a transfer fee of 400 million euros, which now looks like a string of ironic numbers - how glorious he was back then, how confused he is now.

When football becomes a business, how much emotion is left?

The transfer market of the five major leagues in recent years has become more and more like a large vegetable market: players clearly mark prices, clubs are very particular about it, and even the words "loyalty" and "feeling" have become luxury goods. Leverkusen's "cash-out logic", Manchester United's "palace fighting drama", Chelsea's "buying black hole", and Neymar's "oldering dilemma", are essentially the same problem: when football is swept by capital, the relationship between players and clubs is only left to exchange interests.

Some people say that this is the essence of professional football, and it is understandable; others say that when we cannot see the persistence of "one person, one city" and the passion for "turning up against adversity", football loses its most moving background. What do you think? Should we follow market rules or should we keep some idealism? Perhaps, this is the most interesting thing about football - there is always controversy and there is never an answer.
