Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[zuzie]

I hope have great competitive for next season after not really bad performance from Napoli by finish on 3rd position standing, almost success made Milan and Inter difficult to get scudetto although have drop to 3rd position standing at the end of Serie A.

Napoli's success this season cannot be separated from its young players, Victor Osimhen. Since officially joining Napoli in the 2020 transfer market, Osimhen has contributed 24 goals for Napoli from 51 meetings in Serie A. Napoli continues to improve from year to year, Luciano Spalletti works very well in managing the Napoli team formation. I'm curious about the transfer market this season. Who will Luciano Spalletti be targeting to complete Napoli's formation to face the UCL next season.

Lukaku doesn't look to me like a striker that Bayern would fancy that much, i am not saying it is a completely impossible move, but it is close to that, Lukaku is more about his strength than his clinicality and precision, and Bayern is more of a technical team, and i think Lukaku would be unsuitable for them.

Having said that, a return to the Italian Seria A looks like the best option, but Chelsea would be sweating currently, they spent quite a lot of money on this player less than a year or so ago, and now he wants to leave, and that is not just the problem, if the blues are to sell him, they are going to run at a huge loss, cause i do not think any club would take Lukaku close to the amount Chelsea spent on him, not to even talk of footing his wages. I think the way out for Lukaku at this point in time would be via loan, but whichever it is, Chelsea are the real losers in all of these.

No one can be insured against losing trades, sometimes this happens. Lukaku is still young and a very promising striker, but it takes a lot of work to be the best. To the level of Bayern, he still needs to work a lot and grow. Lukaku has made no secret of his desire to return to Serie A, while Chelsea want £20m for the Belgian's one-year loan. There are also rumors that Conte wants to intercept Lukaku at Inter, and invite him to Tottenham. But as I understand it, we are not talking about buying, in all cases it is a lease with a subsequent possibility of redemption.

I think Real Madrid should have paid for Mbappe. After Ronaldo, they could have recaptured the fast football they wanted. Real Madrid's midfielders are getting old now and I don't think they can handle this pace next year. It was already a miracle that they won the champions league this year and it happened. I really wonder which team Pogba will go to. I don't think he will go to the Italian league.

You are right. Despite Real Madrid's weak defense this season, they have won the Champions League and La Liga titles. The main reason is that their midfield is very strong. At the same time, Benzema was playing well entire the season. Modrich may not be with Madrid anymore, Real Madrid needs new talented players in forward, midfield and defense everywhere this season. Let's see which player Ancelotti deems fit for his team.

This is obviously quite difficult to happen even for a big club like Inter but indeed they themselves are currently still struggling with their finances and that amount for a release is definitely something big.
But indeed, in this case, when Inter really wants it, we really can't do much, even though I don't think it's worth it.

After this season Inter failed to win the Serie A trophy, it seems Inter are quite active in the transfer market to strengthen their squad.
The problem is Inter which is experiencing a financial crisis, must take smart steps in recruiting players. Inter will focus more on bringing in
players whose contracts run out, so that Inter don't have to pay transfer fees. Therefore, Tuttosport reports that Inter are more focused
on signing Paulo Dybala on a free transfer, instead of sending Romelu Lukaku back to Inter. Because it is very clear that Inter may not be able
to redeem Lukaku from Chelsea.  Moreover, Chelsea reportedly asked for a fee of 25 million euros for the loan and obliged Inter to redeem Lukaku
for 75 million euros after the loan period ended. Which surely Inter will find it difficult to meet Chelsea's request. Even though Inter really want
to get Lukaku back, but Inter do have to be realistic that it is difficult to make that happen.

I think it will be a really smart decision if they actually decide to bring in Dybala instead of Lukaku because you know, they will be able to bring Dybala without any transfer fee.

If they want to bring in Romelu Lukaku they will have to spend a lot of money. And that release clause of Lukaku is also probably €85 million. I'm sure they obviously will not be able to afford that.

Lukaku is only 29 years old. Although he is not a young player, he is not very old. But Inter Milan would not be interested in spending too much money on Lukaku. On the other hand, Bayern Munich may be interested in signing Lukaku as Lewandowski's replacement. And that might be a good choice. With Bayern Munich's gameplay, Lukaku will be able to adapt easily. And Bayern Munshiha may be ready to pay Chelsea a good amount for Lukaku.

Inter Milan are still interested in Lukaku despite knowing his performance this season at Chelsea has not been good. Compared to Bayern Munchen, I think Lukaku is better at Inter because that's the team that has made him great so far. He is a top player there, so of course he will be guaranteed a safe position in the squad.

Inter Milan and Bayern Munich both play attacking tactics. I think Lukaku can adapt well to attacking tactics. If Lukaku is hardworking then Bayern Munshiha and Inter Milan will be suitable for any team. He will be able to adapt well to the squad.

I might be interested to know if Inter can afford Lukaku's release clause to Chelsea which is currently around 85 million. Lukaku is still under contract with Chelsea until 2026, so it will be interesting to know his current situation.

This is a very important issue. 85 million is a huge amount. Lukaku is a talented player, but is Inter Milan ready to spend such a large amount for Lukaku? That is the reason think maybe Bayern Munich will be interested in bringing Lukaku to the team. Bayern Munich is a rich club. The Munich club will have a chance to make a lot of money by selling Lewandowski at the same time.

Real Madrid is not unwilling to pay Mbappe, but Mbappe himself prefers to stay at Paris Saint Germain with a higher offer.
If you look at Real Madrid's defense I think they just need to improve because I think this season has been good enough. Yes, if you look at their midfielders, it's time to start regenerating.

I'm afraid Pogba forgot how to play top football in the last 3 years and Juventus might still be a great team but it's not what it was 3 or 4 years ago when they had a lot of great players that reached 2 UCL finals. Also , if Pogba will fail at Juventus , I'm afraid that he will not bounce back on top and might end up with an early retirement but I hope it will not be the case.
...

I think we don't have to be so harsh on pogba. I know that he has not been performing well in Manchester United but in that team, there was a lot of other players including pogba who were bigger superstars and they could not perform also.

So, I think a change in everything is going to be really good for him and even if he takes a little time to get settled I think he will be able to perform better.

...
Napoli ...there are strong rumors that a another cycle of reconstruction of the team will being this year and a lot of key players are starting to age in that team ...so , I won't expect great things for them this year as they had another great chance to win Serie A and they ruined it (.

Napoli does this quite often. They raise hopes of winning the league title but in the end, they cannot deliver. I really don't think they will be able to do anything better in the next season also. Unless of course, they make some big changes.

Who will Luciano Spalletti be targeting to complete Napoli's formation to face the UCL next season.

According to news sources Napoli are in negotiations for Udinese winger Gerard Deulofeu, but it looks like the negotiations will go smoothly. If this is true then I think Napoli's attacking line will remain fine next season, because this season Gerard Deulofeu with Udinese has a pretty good record. From 34 matches Gerard Deulofeu can make 13 goals and 5 assists, it can be said that this transfer is a good step to prepare for Napoli to play in the Champions League. Also, for the competition in Serie A Gerard Deulofeu did not take long to adapt, because he was already used to Serie A gameplay.

Luciano Spalletti is a great manager for the Serie A, but not for UCL. So, my bet is that Napoli will do its 2nd 3rd place in serie A the next year, about UCL we'll to see if we'll see naples between the first 16. Naples is not a team that is born for win, but only for let his president have his earnings.

I don't like so much Gerard Delofeu, it isn't a good player for a soccer team like Naples, we need a substitute like Lorenzo Insigne, and Gerard Delofeu isn't so good. Maybe a player like  Barak or Giovanni Simeone from Verona would be good. Verona has done so great things in this season, and hope that he can repeat it the next year.

It won't be easy, Verona are still dependent on Giovanni Simeone so I'm sure they will try to keep Simeone. But indeed his performance this season is quite good and suitable for Napoli, just look at his first year with Verona Giovanni Simeone has contributed 17 goals, 5 assists, 35 matches. One side regret for Caligari, after they loaned Simeone to Verona, Giovanni Simeone developed well.

Napoli inactivity in the transfer market may be one of the causes of Napoli's inability to compete with other clubs, at the start of this season Napoli performance was quite convincing but when other teams strengthened their squad in the transfer market last winter, Napoli were not active at all and as a result Napoli performance instead it decreased due to fatigue from the players, if Napoli continued to be passive in the transfer market later of course they would not be able to compete in the race for the Scudetto next season.

If you look at Real Madrid's defense I think they just need to improve because I think this season has been good enough. Yes, if you look at their midfielders, it's time to start regenerating.

Yes Mbape got a lot of money and special rights at PSG. If we talk this on, it looks like we're going to get off topic.
Milan will reportedly add new players, seeing the television news they are interested in Eljif Elmas and Gleison Bremer. They are Napoli midfielders and Torino defenders. Of course Spalleti doesn't want to fail again in Europe. In addition, they also want to defend the Scudeto title this season. In addition, Zlatan Ibrahimovic's contract is also still unclear because he is also old, there is no way he will be in Milan as a player.

[1kodumtek7]

Maybe looking for a replacement for ibrahimovic. The team needs to prepare talented players to back Rafael Leao and Olivier Giroud up front. Marko Lazetic and junior I think the team need more than that to keep the position of milan next season, because I believe inter and juventus will make changes for next season, this will be a threat to milan, they have to maintain the team's performance and I think Milan need support up front.

It would be really good to see them strengthening their attacking line indeed. Actually their main striker has been Oliver Giroud so far. Zlatan Ibrahimovic played in 27 games in total too but he wasn't very effective on the final weeks of the season as much as he was at the beginning of it. Giroud had a quite good season actually as he made important contributions when the team needed him the most. However I still don't see any striker who scores so many goals in a season for them. Hence maybe they would like to bring a striker like that.

what for now? to let everyone know that Madrid can buy anything even with an unreasonable offer?
or to make it seem as if they only need this player to be able to navigate next season?
this is too naive, even though Madrid really want Mbappe and he is the wonderkid who shines the most at the moment with his performances in recent years, but I see they still make sense when big offers are ignored so there really is no other reason than to switch to look elsewhere

As for Pogba I still have my doubts but I don't rule out this could also happen because so far he's only been close to Juventus

AC Milan is probably the champion after 10 long years. And so next season they will want to increase their strength and win the title again. AC Milan has not had a regular scorer this season. Giroud and Ibra are certainly good players, but now Milan needs young talent. Inter Milan and Juventus continue their efforts to increase their strength. If AC Milan can't bring in new talented players, they will be left behind in next season's title fight.

Real Madrid Football Club is a business and has limitations due to the fact that it spends what it earns. PSG is the plaything of the sheiks, behind which the state stands, so Real cannot compete with PSG for Mbappe. The fact that Real did not spend unreasonable money on Mbappe is in my opinion more of a success than a failure.

It seems that Juventus and Pogba have finally reached an agreement and Pogba's salary will be 8 million a year without bonuses.

Reportedly Pogba is very close to Juventus some local media reported this although Pogba has not officially confirmed it but observers believe he will go to Juventus
For 2 seasons Juventus cannot compete at the top of the standings so that Pogba is considered capable of helping Juventus compete with Inter or Milan
Previously Madrid was interested in buying Pogba but the news had been denied Madrid already has another target.

If it's true and he makes a deal with Juventus I think that's pretty good, because now Juventus need a typical player like him. Of course there will still be a process in implementing the scheme that is really desired. If you look at his time at Manchester United I think it will be a long time for him to get back to his best.

PSG has a lot of money. And they do not hesitate to spend a lot of money on the team of their choice. But Real Madrid does not spend money unnecessarily. They consider the future of each player before taking them into the team. And they don't cost extra for any player. Mbappe may not be in the team now. But Real's forward cannot be called weak as long as Benzema is in the squad.

It seems that Juventus and Pogba have finally reached an agreement and Pogba's salary will be 8 million a year without bonuses.

I have doubts about how much Juventus will benefit from Pogba. Juventus needed a regular scorer. But Pogba is a midfielder. Juventus need an experienced striker to win the title
