Benatia for help Bayern – Sports.fr

The Bayern Munich has found a hidden gem. Daniel Van Buyten orphan, left free in the offseason, and private Javi Martinez, who suffers cruciate ligaments in his left knee, the Bavarian club has strengthened in this transfer window with the recruitment of Moroccan international Mehdi Benatia. Against 26 million euros paid to Roma, the German champions in 2014 obtained for the next 5 years the services of former player formed OM.

In the genre replacing luxury hard to beat. Tuesday, Bayern Munich made official the arrival of the ancient Roman Mehdi Benatia for the next five years. If the Bavarian club had to spend some 26 million euros, plus € 4 million of bonus, Pep Guardiola must now feel a little better in his shoes coach of German champion 2014

This is the FC Barcelona former technician, who had made up his mind to move to three central defense during the offseason, found himself a little short on solutions in Bavaria. Already forced to deal with the departure of Daniel Van Buyten, free party at the end of his contract, the Catalan had only Dante, Boateng or Badstuber, at the extreme limit, as axial defenders business after the Supercup of Germany. Beaten 2-0 by Borussia Dortmund at Signal Iduna Park on August 13, Bayern had indeed had to undergo a second blow with the loss of Javi Martinez, unavailable until the end of 2014.

This is the side of the Serie A as “FC Hollywood” turned to get the backing of the 33 Moroccan international caps for the Atlas Lions. Flushed out by Rudi Garcia when he exploded in the colors of Udinese after spells in France in less flashy colors Om or Clermont, back past the INF Clairefontaine he had proclaimed his desire joining the European Champion 2013 and the club Wolf, who had come from Friuli, not too mourn his absence by selling it for a little more than double what he had bought just a year ago (13.5 million euros for Udinese.)

A masterpiece of defense with Giallorossi on which it has changed 33 times in Serie A (5 goals), Mehdi Benatia should logically be replaced by the Greek Konstantinos Manolas in the Eternal City. Again, the club from the Italian capital will not disburse more than 15 million. With the same success as last season with Benatia?

PSG will regret … – Sports.fr

Long coveted by PSG, Angel Di Maria eventually evolve next season at Manchester United. Result in sanctions under the financial fair play and some precipitation PSG …

Five more days before the close of the transfer market and PSG seems to have ended with his transfer window. Parisian leaders could certainly still record the expected Ervin Ongenda and Adrien Rabiot starts, the first on loan at Bastia and Lens, the second for 12 million euros to England (Arsenal, Tottenham) and Italy (AS Roma, AC Milan, Juventus) but arrivals radius champions France will therefore remain in the signatures of David Luiz and Serge Aurier. In addition to the return of loan Clement Chantome and Jean-Christophe Bahebeck, the latter to even extend his contract in the next few days.

What still leave a sense of unfinished business when it is remembered that a priority recruitment Parisian concerned the right lane. And not just in defense, where replacing Christophe Jallet by Serge Aurier is certainly promising, but also in attack, where Cavani, Lucas, Pastore and Lavezzi are slow to give satisfaction.

therefore determined to leave Real Madrid following the arrival of James Rodriguez, Angel Di Maria had the profile shown to prevail in the capital. But if Argentina had convinced himself, moreover with an annual salary of 8 million euros, Real was not willing to accept a loan with option to buy, the only way to PSG circumvent sanctions by UEFA against him under the financial fair play. What seems logical in view of the 75 million on the table by Manchester United to secure the services of the former player of Benfica. Without even mentioning the 15 million bonus …

But if early August, Nasser al-Khelaïfi Angel Di Maria was assured “ too expensive” for PSG, it does not because of the amount claimed by the Real, but rather because the leaders in Paris had burned their joker against UEFA by paying 50 million for David Luiz. “I do not think that David very expensive. many other big clubs wanted him, “ had also had to specify the Parisian president at the time of presentation of the Brazilian.

But more than its price, ie, is the utility of his arrival raises questions, PSG have indeed already spent 31 million last year for the transfer of promising Marquinhos while Alex, arguably one of the best Parisian players last season, n ‘waiting for a sign of its leaders to sign a new lease in the capital. In which case, the champions of France would have the latitude to recruit Angel Di Maria …

Solidarity, dedication and speed are the weapons of Atletico this season. The Colchoneros have shown in their success over Real in the Spanish Super Cup last week (1-1, 1-0). But these intrinsic qualities to the team of Diego Simeone is not always enough. Atletico, who still lost this summer Luis Felipe, Thibaut Courtois and Diego Costa (Chelsea), had neither the physical nor the talent to take more than a point on the side of Rayo Vallecano (0-0 ) on Monday. And coach of the Madrid club has not been able to change, who had settled in the press room at Vallecas because of a suspension dating back to last season (fifth yellow card given at the 38th day Liga at Camp Nou).
El Cholo will at least have to get used to no longer follow his team from the sidelines, who was suspended this Monday afternoon eight games for giving a slap on the back of the skull of the fourth official at the return of the Supercup. Mario Mandzukic could facilitate the game of his team in the first period, but the Croatian narrowly missed twice before Alvarez (25th and 27th). In the second act, it’s Rayo who gained the upper hand as the Colchoneros seemed to falter. But neither the French Kakuta, very active (68th) nor Manucho (71st and 78th), before Moya, only managed to bend the defending champion. However Atlético already has two points behind rivals Barcelona and Real. Merengue, also blunt, have provided most face Cordova (2-0).
