Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[hahay]

Next season I see that Inter Milan is a strong candidate to win the Scudetto because their squad has seen good perfection this season.  Maybe Lukaku will return to play from the start of the season next season because last season he was hit by an injury which prevented him from playing fully in every game.  Martinez and Lukaku are the stickers that are very feared in the next season. Dzeko is gone and he has made a big contribution to Inter this season.

Romelu Lukaku's loan contract is about to end by the end of this month. Inter don't seem like they are very interested in extending this contract or signing him permanently. Because Lukaku is far away from his old look now. He is playing really inconsistently and you know how he played a serious role in Inter's not being able to resist Manchester City more by playing extra time.

Therefore his recent performance isn't convincing enough for Inter to fight for him. They were really keen on signing him on a loan deal before because they were hoping to see the same effort from him. As you know they were a great duo with Martinez. But now there is nothing left of it.

Correct, Lukaku loan contract is about to end at the end of June, yes this month. As you said Lukaku last played with Inter is against Manchester City in final UCL and it was very disappointing, and I also think that Inter may not want to extend his contract. Although at the moment there is no official news regarding Inter and Lukaku, but I think Inter have a firm stance, the failures of this season will not be repeated in the next season.

Even though Romelu Lukaku played badly in his last match in the Champions League final, but Romelu Lukaku has a total of 10 goals in Serie A. That way, Romelu Lukaku is the second highest scorer at Inter under Martinez and yes, I think Romelu Lukaku's record is like that doesn't seem like a bad note either. But indeed, most people will only think about the poor results in their last match, even though in reality Romelu Lukaku still has a pretty good record in Serie A too.

The problem is I think for this season Milan are still not able to do that.
They may look fine but we realise that they're not completely fine because their finances are still being eroded at the moment and they still haven't been able to make their financial situation change.
With the reshuffle of the players might be able to make Milan different, it's just that this requires a large capital and Milan will not be able to afford it.
Now there is new capital with Tonali's transfer to Newcastle (If it happens) then around 70 million they can get and that can make them breathe a little but of course losing Tonali and even before that losing Brahim Diaz who returned to Madrid this will certainly provide a big gap for Milan.
70 million from the sale of Tonali can handle that but on the other hand of course not everything can be fixed for next season.

I hope that the problems for Milan end quickly , it is not possible for a team of this level to see itself in such financial problems, it is known that Milan is a high-level team, it has always managed a great story, and apart from everything You can expect a lot from your players, they have to do a better job, the financial problems are something that are difficult to overcome at times , but this team always knows how to get Ahead , for me they can do it this season in Serie A Better.

Newcastle seal agreement with AC Milan for Sandro Tonali

Snip~

The hope is like that but indeed for now Serie A clubs seem to be still with the same problem and not only Milan have problems like this considering several other big clubs are also feeling the same impact for now.

Talking again about Tonali it seems like it's just a matter of time for him to leave Milan because with the current conditions especially with the news you have given now it's just a matter of time.
Now that Tonali has gone to Newcastle they seem to be moving quickly. There is the name Davide Frattesi which is possible to fill Tonali's empty place. On the other hand there is the name of Tijjani Reijnders from AZ Alkmar who is included in Milan's current rumours.
With the sale of Tonali now then indeed they will definitely overhaul some positions that are currently a lot of gaps.

Even though Romelu Lukaku played badly in his last match in the Champions League final, but Romelu Lukaku has a total of 10 goals in Serie A. That way, Romelu Lukaku is the second highest scorer at Inter under Martinez and yes, I think Romelu Lukaku's record is like that doesn't seem like a bad note either. But indeed, most people will only think about the poor results in their last match, even though in reality Romelu Lukaku still has a pretty good record in Serie A too.

In the end he may return to Chelsea even though his goal tally this season is not bad for Inter but of course we also feel that his performance has decreased compared to before so the possibility of him returning to Chelsea because of Inter's dissatisfaction is clearly very large.
There were some rumours that he was linked with Milan but this was immediately denied by the agent of Lukaku himself so with this it is certain that he goes again to Chelsea.

Napoli is not a favorite at all for the next season. They had a good performance this season and they won the title but since their coach and some players are losing this team I think they don't have too much chance for the next season.

This is not a certainty. They might still do well.
Players and coaches leave club all the time, that doesn't mean that club has to be miserable. It all depends on how they handle their affairs. Napoli will lose a few important players, but Im not sure it would be more than 3 or 4. They can easily buy some replacement. Buying players should not even be a debate for Napoli. Whether their players leave or not, they have to strengthen their squad.
Osimhen might not leave. Napoli placed a 180 million price tag on him.

If we pin that Napoli's best game happened to their coach this season, then maybe they won't be better than the season they managed to conquer by winning the Scudetto title. But football is not like that, meaning anything can happen, even if they are still with the same coach next season.
This depends on themselves and their own performance, Napoli's solidity this season is not luck, or in other words they really prepared everything so that they managed to be a differentiator in Serie A this season. They should have known what they had to do with a lot of studying in the previous season.

Napoli are required to maintain consistency and also the Scudetto title they won last season. I think this will be a challenge or even a failure for Napoli because we know very well that maintaining everything that is there is very difficult, especially when Napoli lost the captain of his ship, namely Spalleti, who chose to leave after the season ended.

Maybe we won't be able to see Napoli as strong as last season but we also can't fully see that their performance will drop drastically, of course there will always be improvements to have a better run in the Serie A competition. I think the chemistry between the players must be maintained so that the rhythm of the game they usually display can be the key to further success.

Now is the time for adjustments for the new coach and players to be made and the time is still quite long so with this, as I said before, it depends on how Napoli maintain their condition.
Indeed, for now it seems that the level of pessimism is much greater than optimism for Napoli but of course this also cannot be used as a benchmark if indeed they are still not playing so indeed we still only have to wait for what steps they will take to make it next season and they must prepare for it from now on, especially in terms of the chemistry between the coach and the players, they must be trained from now on so that communication goes well.

If he really returns to Chelsea, I don't think he will be good or he can perform the way he did in inter Milan.
There are numerous players who are older than him and are still performing; Inter shouldn't assume that he can't perform next season either.

Inter Milan have done their best in the Champions League this season, I even predicted they would lose with a 2 goal difference, but in reality they only conceded one goal. And even in the final minutes especially, they got a lot of chances, but unfortunately the opportunities they got couldn't be converted into goals. I don't think the Goddess of luck is on their side in this match.

Yes, Inter weren't too bad in the UCL final, even they also can do a lot of effort in that match, there are two best golden opportunities for them, but sadly they weren't so lucky to scored.
By the way, on the other side. Hellas Verona success to get a winning against Spezia today, and they Verona will still in Serie A next season, congrats ! This match really impressive 4 goals were created in the first half, it was a hot match.

That is what many have been saying. Inter Milan won't get many chances during that final game and if they get chances, they have to convert them into goals. Now we have seen the result what happens when you don't take the opportunities and score especially when it is unlikely that you will have a lot of them.

But Inter Milan's season has still been quite ok. They have done the work to qualify for the Champions League again and they won a title in the Coppa Italia. The disappointment will outweigh the positive feelings for a couple of days because they know that they had a chance to beat the best team in Europe. But as it gets closer to the start of the new season they will also reflect a bit more positively on what they have achieved this season.

As for me, I think that Inter is one of the teams that have done their job the best, in UCL for me they were the champions, but I don't know, but Lukaku I think he was the one who had the most influence in looking for that victory that he never could materialize, and it is somewhat sad, because they deserved to have at least tied that game, and to be honest, City's goal was more of a rebound than if it had been planned, something that came out fortuitously, but that's fútbol, it always happens that The one who deserves does not win, but the one who scores the goals, it does not matter how well they have played, what matters is who scored and who won, that is what always determines a good game of fútbol.

Inter transfers: Six players set to leave after Dzeko, Lukaku infuriates Chelsea

The Nerazzurri have practically no transfer budget so they must sell some of their players before making new purchases.

André Onana’s agents are in talks with Manchester United and the Red Devils are ready to place an opening offer for the Nerazzurri who want at least €50m for the Cameroon international.

Edin Dzeko has already joined Fenerbahce as a free agent and three more players’ won’t extend their expiring contracts with the Nerazzurri. Friday’s printed edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport (page 5) claims Samir Handanovic, Danilo D’Ambrosio and Roberto Gagliardini will leave on June 30. Chelsea’s Cesar Azpilicueta could replace D’Ambrosio, as per Sky Sport Italia.

Marcelo Brozovic and Robin Gosens are also expected to leave. The pink paper confirms Union Berlin have reached a principle of agreement with the German left-back, but Inter want at least €15m.

But indeed, most people will only think about the poor results in their last match, even though in reality Romelu Lukaku still has a pretty good record in Serie A too.

In fact, I don’t consider Lukaku’s last match in the Champions League final to be bad, as when he entered the field, Inter’s attacks became much more dangerous. But he couldn't convert the chances he had, which happens sometimes, especially when you have very limited time on the field.

Now is the time for adjustments for the new coach and players to be made and the time is still quite long so with this, as I said before, it depends on how Napoli maintain their condition.
Indeed, for now it seems that the level of pessimism is much greater than optimism for Napoli but of course this also cannot be used as a benchmark if indeed they are still not playing so indeed we still only have to wait for what steps they will take to make it next season and they must prepare for it from now on, especially in terms of the chemistry between the coach and the players, they must be trained from now on so that communication goes well.

Spalletti was a special coach for Napoli, whether anyone can repeat the results of the team, that wasin the last season, I doubt it. De Laurentiis, out of his arrogance, lost a very good coach and possibly lost Napoli, who were able to win Serie A and played quite well in the Champions League. Let's see how Napoli will start the new season, but I'm almost sure that the departure of Spalletti will not affect the team in the best way.

I am a big Manchester City fan because I like their style, the patience in the game and the high quality in essentially all aspects of their game.

I agree with every word you said. Actually, in the final you could feel that Manchester City was kind of anxious. They weren't as free and agile as they usually are because they didn't want to lose this again. They were more focused on not making mistakes than taking the lead and Inter Milan did amazing and was so compact and yes, it was this kind of goal that I would also call a rebound or something, but not the typical genius move Manchester City is known for. Nobody would have complained a bout a draw after 90 minutes because it would have been a fair end result after regular time. But talking about individual players or also the team performances and who deserved it more, in my opinion both deserved it. Inter worked they way up to the top of European soccer, taking step by step and proving the critics wrong whereas Manchester City played an amazing season as well.

Regarding next season, if Inter can maintain most of their learnings and improvements from last season, they will be hard to beat and definitely one of the fiercest competitors for the Serie A title. I was happy to see that they are not only this typical Italian team trying to destroy the flow of the game. They also attacked and paired their offensive game with very high defensive discipline.

Even at the beginning of the year nobody thought that Napoli could do something, in my opinion they have a plan
Clearly, knowing nothing, we launch ourselves into speculations and are horrified by the decision to change coaches
but we don't know everything..

If there are some people who don't trust Napoli but I still believe that Napoli will still be the favorite club next season.
Many rumors are spread about the badness of Napoli but look they still have their reliable players who can dominate this club.
I think Napoli's finances are also not too bad to bring in reliable players to be able to provide good performance for Napoli.

[Awaklara]

Lukaku is one of the players who improves inter Milan's performance this season. Although inter Milan is also good, this season he is one of the players who helped the team reach the final zone of the Champions League, so it will be good if inter Milan signs him or extends his contract. If he really returns to Chelsea, I don't think he will be good or he can perform the way he did in inter Milan.
There are numerous players who are older than him and are still performing; Inter shouldn't assume that he can't perform next season either.

although Lukaku did quite well at Inter, he didn't stand out. last season he played 25 times in Serie A and made 10 goals and assists. after the loan contract is finished, it will be up to Chelsea. but the strongest news is that Inter wants to keep it by negotiating. As for the news from Milan, it has been denied by every agent. as well as news from the Saudi club, because Lukaku still wants a career in Europe.

Romelu Lukaku made 37 appearances in all competitions last season with Inter. Lukaku managed 14 goals and 6 assists in all his appearances for Inter in one season and I don't think his stats are too bad. Inter may need to consider signing Romelu Lukaku permanently for the next few seasons, but if indeed Inter feel that Lukaku's performance is no longer the same, then they are entitled to whatever the decision is.

Indeed, there is a decrease in statistics from Lukaku, especially when compared to his statistics in the 2 seasons between 2019 and 2021, but I think Lukaku is still quite reliable as an alternative for Martinez.

Napoli is a strong team. Of course, there will be those who leave the team and those who are new to the team. Just because they were very successful one season doesn't mean they will be successful the next season. But there is a fact that the teams in the Italian League are not very strong and Napoli can become the champion without difficulty among these teams.
The money they want for Osimhen is too much, I don't think the big clubs will look hot for such a transfer. Whether he is such a valuable player or not is a debatable issue

Lukaku doesn't always start so his performances don't really stand out but once in a while it's very lucky because several times with goals from that as the winner.
I don't know about the rumors about Lukaku but after returning to Chelsea Lukaku was on the sale list to the Saudi League and indeed Lukaku refused even though the offer was very high, in fact he still wants a career among other European teams, but I think the Chelsea coach now it looks like Lukaku will not be included in his new squad.

[beerlover]

They've recently increased Victor Osimhen's purchasing price to €180M which is to discourage top bidders.

The real value is € 120M, so there is a figure more than € 60M which is quite high and can be used to get other players, so actually Napoli is wanting to say to the clubs who are still after their main striker, that they will not sell this star, and the amount pegged by Napoli is equal to the real value of Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland. Maybe the clubs will be reluctant to get him and this season Victor Osimhen will stay with Napoli and that's what they have to do if they want to keep the title and can do better in the champions league next season. Unless Napoli make selling their stars one of their businesses to make money like the teams from the Bundesliga do.
Although a change in manager will also be a question, how will Napoli continue to perform an impressive appearance in the next competition?

I think nobody would be able to pay him 180 million, that just doesn't feel like it will happen. The best thing to do in this case would be making sure that you are handling all the contract talks with the manager, that way you can get him after the contract is up. Thinking that people would be willing to spend 180 million to get him is just a dream, not reality and won't be happening.

Mbappe worths that much if you ask me, only like maybe Mbappe and Haaland, nobody else really feels like they would worth that much. Osimhen had a great season that's true, and he is a great player all that's true, but 120 is the max teams would pay, anything more than that is beyond bonkers and doesn't feel like they are going to actually get that offer.

A little surprised by rumors Romelu Lukaku is the target of AC Milan. Because Lukaku himself is comfortable with Inter because he was part of Inter Milan when they won the Scudetto for the 2020/2021 season. and obviously it will also be very hot later due to move to rival Klup. It is true that Lukaku has ended his loan period at Inter Milan and will soon be returned to Chelsea, but of course Chelsea will not use his services.

However, if you look at why Ac Milan really wants Lukaku's services, this is very reasonable. Because Milan reportedly has money, after they released player Sandro Tonali to Newcastle United. Apart from that, Ac Milan has also recently lost Ibrahimovic, who has decided to retire. So it's only natural that Ac Milan needs a striker who is tall and tall.

I don't think Lukaku is suitable for Serie A or the Premier League. Lukaku's performances are not regular. He cannot play well consistently. It would be a good decision for Lukaku to join a SuperLig team. Even if he joins a team in Saudi Arabia, he will get a lot of wages. However, Lukaku is only 30 years old. I think he would want to stay with any Premier League team. It is more of an honor for him.

Lukaku, who is already comfortable playing at Inter Milan, certainly wants to stay at Inter Milan longer. And currently the negotiation process between Inter Milan and Chelsea is still going on quite complicated. because Chelsea wanted to sell Lukaku but it turned out that Inter Milan only wanted to maintain Lukaku's status as a loan player. And Lukaku, who has indeed rejected an offer from an Arab club that offers a large salary, deserves a thumbs up because he is not tempted by money but he prefers to build a reputation by continuing to play in European football. And currently there are 2 Chelsea players who have rejected offers from Arab clubs.

Also, Milan don't have the strongest mid line, so they have some work to do, but I don't see any significant activity in the transfer market yet.

When it comes to their midfield Milan will really need to concern themselves with keeping their midfield strong next season. Because they played with so many loaned midfielders this season. Actually not all of them played in so many matches but they were at least alternatives to the main players. Bakayoko, Brahim Diaz and Vranckx all are about to return to their teams as their loan spell is ending soon.

Apart from that Tonali who is one of the most important members in their midfield is also chased by some teams. Newcastle is the most rumoured team with him currently. Losing so many midfielders at the same time could create some crisis for Milan so they should start looking for midfielders as Plan B.

Charles De Ketelaere was signed by Milan also and he is actually a really talented attacking midfielder. He couldn't contribute with goals and assists much this season but he is still very young. Hopefully he can start doing better in time.

The type of performance that Lukaku has been giving recently is probably not needed by anyone. Every club is in a position where it would be better if they could get rid of him totally. But that is not possible. Chelsea was too much excited while signing him. Now they cannot get rid of him probably before 2026. Till that time he is just going to take away of money from Chelsea as a salary. Chelsea is trying to give him a loan offer end, just trying to make him and his salary officially the problem of another club. But the player also realized that he can actually leverage the situation in favour of him. That’s why he is not leaving unless he is getting it a really big deal from another club.

I would actually say that if you can win with having loaned players in the squad, it is actually not bad. But the problem is that stability is not going to be there. Playing with loaned players means that the players are probably not going to be the same every season. Which means the performance is also not going to be the same.

At the same time, the quality of the squad is also going to vary. I don’t know what the financial situation of Milan is right now. I hope they will be able to make some transfers, which will make the squad stronger. But it is going to take a lot of money to successfully make the midfield and attack strong.
