Clubs have already begun to study possible signings for next season. Likewise, transfer markets have completely changed. Few soccer teams spend a large sum of money to sign a player, now it has become common to sign players who are free agents or when their contracts are about to expire.

The quick answer to this is that the clubs will no longer benefit from each other. But waiting until the player’s contract is up can bring complications, as happened to Real Madrid with Kylian Mbappe.

In this context, according to reports, Chelsea, Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Bayern Munich are interested in signing a player who will become a free agent in a few months.
