"Transfer on 19/02: Chelsea shock with Harry Kane; How did M.U - PSG perform?"

Chelsea is considering a backup plan regarding the Osimhen transfer saga. According to information from The Standard, Chelsea is devising a replacement plan for their top transfer target, Victor Osimhen of Napoli, after Paris Saint-Germain entered the race. With Kylian Mbappe departing, PSG could save around £200 million per season, allowing the Ligue 1 champions to splash out for Osimhen. Consequently, Chelsea is eyeing a Premier League striker duo as replacements, namely Evan Ferguson from Brighton & Hove Albion and Ivan Toney from Brentford.
As for the shock move involving Harry Kane, along with the aforementioned contingency plans, Football Insider reports that Chelsea, under former manager Mauricio Pochettino, is closely monitoring Harry Kane's situation at Bayern Munich, a team that has suffered three consecutive defeats recently. Pochettino shares a good relationship with Kane, who holds him in high regard, making it potentially easy to persuade the England captain to return to the Premier League. If Bayern experiences significant disappointment and ends the season empty-handed, The Blues could certainly come into play.After 7 months of unemployment, De Gea has made a decision about his future. Specifically, the 33-year-old goalkeeper is focusing on staying in Spain, thereby ending his adventure abroad. "Sources close to the Spanish player believe that he is ready to wait for an opportunity to play in La Liga. That means joining his former club Atletico Madrid or even their rivals Real Madrid," The Sun reported. There is information indicating that the Spanish player has turned down a return to the Premier League during the winter transfer window.
The timing of the big bombshell. According to Foot Mercato, Kylian Mbappe and PSG are planning to make a joint announcement about the striker's departure. However, Cadena SER asserts that everything will only happen after PSG or Real Madrid concludes their journey in the Champions League this season. This move aims to help Mbappe avoid distractions in his performance. Mbappe is focused on giving his all for PSG with a high level of performance in the final months, with the ambition of achieving the treble (Champions League, Ligue 1, and the French Cup).The future of Tuchel remains uncertain. According to Bild, Bayern Munich is losing patience with coach Thomas Tuchel after their 2-3 defeat to Bochum in the 22nd round of the Bundesliga. They are considering all possibilities before making a decision regarding Tuchel's future. However, journalist Fabrizio Romano asserts that the Bavarian club is not rushing to terminate their contract with the former Chelsea manager. Instead, Tuchel might still be given a final chance. If the situation does not improve, the German coach will have to depart.
PSG targets Manchester United's top star as a replacement for Mbappe. According to reliable sources from The Times, the Parc des Princes-based team is interested in acquiring Marcus Rashford's services. PSG is looking to bring in a player capable of playing from the left-wing, and Rashford fits the bill. The 26-year-old has been on PSG's radar for several years, and they attempted to lure him to Parc des Princes at the end of 2022, albeit unsuccessfully. PSG might revisit the idea of signing Rashford and view him as a perfect complement to their other target, Osimhen.
