Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

Inter Milan deserves to negotiate with Chelsea for players who have been used by Inter Milan. And in this case the player is Lukaku, who in general is still very suitable for Inter Milan to use if Chelsea allow him. But if Chelsea no longer lends Inter Milan to Lukaku's player, I think Inter Milan will need to offer the player to Chelsea at a fairly appropriate price, of course. But on the other hand, Chelsea are also looking for new players besides having to retain their old players to restore their previous poor performance next season.

I do not understand what you mean. Why should inter milan offer Lukaku to Chelsea, while Lukaku is a Chelsea player and he loaned to Inter milan last season. I don't think Inter milan has enough money to buy Lukaku from Chelsea. Lukaku is indeed very integrated into the Inter Milan game, even at Inter Milan, Lukaku was able to show his best quality compared to his performance at Chelsea. Speculation over his future is still a question mark and today maybe his loan spell with inter milan is over and he has to return to Chelsea again. We'll see how Chelsea reacts to Lukaku, whether they will sell Lukaku at a lower price. But so far Inter milan could very much count on Lukaku for next season if Inter milan moves to progress in a deal with chelsea to make Lukaku permanent in this transfer window. Let's wait and see what steps Inter Milan will take to not lose Lukaku this season, will they sell other players to get funds to buy Lukaku. Previously, Inter Milan had sold Brozovic to the Saudi Arabian league team, where Inter Milan could use the money from selling Brozovic to buy Lukaku.

Clarity about this player is still a question mark, I see that the 2 teams that are in touch with Lukaku at the moment don't really want Lukaku. They can use it, but when it comes to spending money they seem to prefer other players. On the one hand, Chelsea also didn't want their losses to continue, because they brought in Lukaku not at a small cost, but he couldn't make a good contribution. On the other hand, Inter Milan may only want him as a player on loan, because it costs more to make him their permanent player.

The issue with Lukaku is that he is not a bad player, we have seen him be a great player for so long, and yet he got injured and haven't gotten back all that much yet. I am not saying he is bad currently, all I am saying is that we haven't had that many games to see him healthy so far. That is why I believe that it is going to be a trouble for anyone to sign him as well.

I do not expect him to be all that different and weird, he is going to be someone who will be a bit hard to recover with his size as well. This is why I believe that it is not going to be that much of a big deal when it comes down to getting a good contract for him, he could leave or stay or whatever but first we need to see him play before we can judge him and how he is.

Lukaku is a great player and I don’t think he has lost the touch of greatness. I believe he will be able to perform well. But that’s just something that I only believe. Nothing is certain with him. And it is going to be a little bit of trouble for the club who is going to sign him now.

We have seen him making and showing a lot of promises with his performance. But in the end, he was not able to deliver. He is a big guy. So sometimes it can be a curse as it is a blessing as well. He will always be physically stronger than most other players and at the same time. He is also going to be prone to injury, especially at this age.

You are right, Inter is the most serious team to bring Lukaku they make every effort to get this player we don't know what the reason but maybe because Inter has no other choice and Lukaku is considered cheap and can be relied on. The rumors are Inter ready to release 6 players in order to secure Lukaku so we can imagine how important Lukaku for Inter even though the performance wasn't very good last season.

inter gets new competitor. Juventus is now seeing lukaku as best replacement for vlahovic. Juventus is ready on sending bid to the chelsea. Chelsea has not yet put lukaku on the transfer market.
I hope that there will be strict competitions between juventus and intermilan to get lukaku. He is worthy enough even though his performance is not stable at this moment.
Lukaku was always going up and down. He may also become the luckiest or unluckiest player in the club.

I don't think Inter strongly doubts Lukaku's usefulness for the team, I think Inter doubts the expediency of paying such a sum for a player. Also, we do not forget about the injury of the player and not always a useful game for the team, so I am not surprised that Inter is trying to bring down the price of the player or rent him again. However, there is a difficulty here that Chelsea urgently needs to sell unnecessary players, and Lukaku is not needed for Chelsea, and also that sworn friends from Milan seem to be ready to pay the required amount for the player, at least in order to tease and weaken their eternal competitor

inter milan has martinez who performed well last season but inter milan must also form the right duel for martinez next season. One of them is to buy Lukaku from Chelsea after the season's loan ends today. I think if inter milan loses Lukaku maybe they will be a little dull up front next season.

Next season the competition in Serie A will be stronger than this season, so Inter Milan must act quickly so as not to lose their best bomber for next season. Last season Inter Milan relied on Dzeko and Lukaku on the front lines as well as Martinez but if without them next season I think Inter Milan will find it difficult to compete in the race for the Scudetto trophy.

It feels like that if acmilan is always targeting chelsea's player. Some players that have been bought by acmilan from chelsea are Giroud, Tomori, RLC and I've heard that if acmilan wanna add more players from chelsea to its squad.
He is pulisic. Ac milan and chelsea are negotiating his transfer. Ac milan consistently buys chelsea's players.
I remember that acmilan has been also asking lukaku but chelsea refuses it. Chelsea asked for a higher fee than what Milan was willing to pay. has acmilan motivated by successful of intermilan by taking players from chelsea?
Azpilicueta was also going to the intermilan.  

It seems that there is an inner bond between AC Milan and Chelsea so AC Milan often brings in players from Chelsea. And now it seems that it will happen again when they are now in the negotiation process because it seems that the process is quite serious that AC Milan is doing now.
Chelsea itself is now shaky because they released several players, yes it happened when there will be a new coaching era that will start this coming season.
AC Milan itself now seems to be holding back their transfer fees a little so they don't spend too much money to bring in new players.

@JeffBrad12, Azpilicueta is actually going to Atletico Madrid.
Actually, he was a free agent. Otherwise, I think there might be another club trying to get him.

There is obviously some good transfer going on between AC Milan and Chelsea.
 But obviously, both of the clubs are thinking about which is going to bring the most of the money.

Competition might occur in buying Lukaku because their rival Ac Milan is trying to take advantage of this opportunity to tempt Chelsea to buy Lukaku. I think one form of Lukaku loyalty to Inter Milan is to refuse Al Hilal offer because he wants to stay at Inter Milan next season but if you look at the salary received from Al Hilal it is far greater than what he received from Inter Milan but he refused it. Indeed, at the start of the season Lukaku suffered an injury and that was what prevented Lukaku from appearing more perfect for Inter Milan last season. Meanwhile, Inter Milan option for Lukaku is to borrow Lukaku again from Chelsea for next season.

Ac Milan is currently moving in the transfer window this season where their first signing of the season was Loftus-Cheek who was brought in from Chelsea. Ac Milan must pay 16 million euros to Chelsea. From his qualities i think he is a great signing which Moncada is doing to strengthen the Ac Milan squad next season.

Last season Inter Milan relied on Dzeko and Lukaku on the front lines as well as Martinez but if without them next season I think Inter Milan will find it difficult to compete in the race for the Scudetto trophy.

Inter Milan made significant investments in its frontlines, but only Lautaro Martinez is the prominent attacker who receives particularly strongly support from fans and teammates. Inter's chances of winning the Scudetto faded the moment these frontlines were injured, their inability to score goals, particularly after Romelu Lukaku was ill, was very tiny. Lautaro Martinez is a crucial project for Inter boss Simeon Inzaghi and a key attacker for Inter. The Argentina international cannot go since his presence is essential to the club and he is always in front of goal. I still hope they tried everything they could to keep Lukaku on loan for next season's Seria A campaign.

Pogba still has a contract with Juventus until 2026. There are still a long time to stay with Juventus. I think Juventus won't let him to leave, Pogba must recover from its injury. Although he can't play at many matches in the last season, doesn't mean he will experience the same in the next season. I'm sure Juventus will do their best to recover Pogba as quick as possible. We just need to be patient to wait for his return.

Moving to Saudi won't be a good idea if he still can't play due to injury problem. The best decision is to stay in Juventus and focus on the recovery. I believe Juventus will keep Pogba for a more season.

Pogba is the best midfielder with his creativities from holding, attacking and how beautiful assists contribution for the teams, but in this season he most spent with injured and looks difficult for him back to the top perform. Right now, Pogba is not valuable for Saudi Pro League teams and not interested yet for sign him actually with duration contract left with Juventus and for signing him need to pay transfer fees.
Juventus fans need patience and waiting for recovery and Pogba will back to the top performance, Serie A start one month later and seems Pogba has enough time recovery and give contribution for Juventus next season and winning domestic league tittle. But Pogba need time to recovery and Allegri can push him have to play without 100% fit and worry he will get injury again.

Chelsea wants other club to buy him as permanent transfer. Juventus has been also announcing club's interest in buying lukaku while vlahovic has become one of target from chelsea. It has been officiall reported.

https://twitter.com/CFCPys/status/1673363978045595648

Ac milan and intermilan are still also interesting to sign him as permanent transfer but still waiting for the decision by chelsea regarding his price.
Chelsea has not yet put him in the transfer market. That's why inter's president has been commenting if chelsea wants high price for him. Im very happy all of big clubs in serie a targeting him as main transfer.

Juventus can get lukaku by including vlahovic in the deal. Inter still wants lukaku too.

Lukaku's performance for Inter Milan has helped him return to a normal path in his career, and now that Juventus are interested as well, I think Inter will be more serious than before about signing him directly to the team. This is because of his impressive play throughout the 2022–2023 season, when he scored goals and provided assists, which leads me to believe that Lukaku's performance for Inter Milan is superior to Chelsea's, should Inter Milan decide to acquire him from the Blues.
Likewise for Juventus. I don't see any issues with the team that would make them need Lukaku because everything is going well for Juventus and the team is still capable of doing admirably next season. Therefore, in my opinion, Inter Milan deserves Lukaku more than Juventus.

[bering]

Nicolo Barella will refuse the offers from premier league teams that he has decide to staying much longer at Inter or at least until his contract expired on 2026 because he feel comfortable to playing at this team and indeed recently Barella has been linked to Liverpool and Newcastle and reported Liverpool are dare to bid 80 millions for Barella this because Klopp has been impress to his performance during last season especially when he can able to bringing Inter to advances to the final match of champion league and this is good news for Inter because at least they wouldn't lost their important player because last season Inzaghi always be played him for almost each matches in all competitions and this proves how important he is to Inter

[rendravolt]

Summer is still quite a long way away but it looks like Paul Pogba is not going anywhere this season and he will be staying with Juventus for next season. As we know, Pogba hasn't done much since last season and had to spend his time due to a severe injury that forced him to step aside early last season.

Even so, of course there are still offers from other teams or even from the Saudi league to sign him, but Pogba still seems excited enough to play in Europe, especially in Serie A. I think Pogba should have given his quality to Juventus because the transfer fee was quite expensive when he was brought in from Manchester United since the beginning of last season, his contribution has not been seen until now.

Pogba has not shown much contribution to Juventus. In fact, he only has a total record of playing officially in the match with Juventus, which is only 172 minutes. Bad luck indeed befell Pogba. So he spends more time in treatment and recovery from his injury. But I'm pretty sure when he comes back fit a lot of clubs will want him.

But I heard news that Juventus are ready to let Pogba go if someone wants to buy him at a price that Juventus wants. Because Juventus are currently short on money to buy the players they need in the transfer market like Sergej Milinkovic-Savic. And Man United actually still needs a midfielder like Pogba. but of course everyone has to wait for the player to be fit again.

In my opinion, even if Juventus needs to be sold, it should be done immediately and if there is an offer close to the transfer fee at Juventus, I think Juventus should let him go immediately because this player is like a burden on the club and has made no contribution at all since his arrival last season. But as a player, of course, Pogba is quite annoyed with the injury he experienced because it made him miss almost a full season.

At the moment Juventus have to put more importance on the players the club needs and I think bringing in Sergej Milinkovic-Savic from Lazio is the right choice. Juventus still lacks midfielders who have creativity or who can provide gaps for other players to carry out attacks.

[Jatiluhung]

But Lukaku would have to agree. I don't know any details about his contract, but Chelsea want to have a player in their team that is not willing to play the best he can and Lukuku can be a moody guy, which also reflects upon his efforts in a game.

Lukaku still really wants to be at Inter. And even he also rejected the very high salary offer from the Arab League in favor of Lukaku. Yes, it's true, Chelsea doesn't seem to suit him very well and indeed, the competence of the players is not only in their skills but also in their mood and attitude. Apart from that, it seems that Lukaku is quite suitable for Inter's style of play.

He had a good season at Inter Milan and he could have a good performance there, especially in the last weeks when Inte Milan was playing in the champions league Lukaku also helped them in Serie A however he is under contract with Chelsea and Inter Milan should have some negotiations with Chelsea about this player for the next season.

Every player definitely wants to play for a club that gives them comfort. And it seems that Inter Milan can become a club that can make Lukaku comfortable playing for Inter Milan. We know Lukaku has had a lot of injuries. But Inter Milan doesn't seem to mind this and can appreciate Lukaku. So surely Lukaku feels comfortable there.

And every player will be more able to show his best game if he is treated well by the club. And Inter Milan have done just that for Lukaku. But I think Inter Milan probably won't be able to buy Lukaku at the price offered by Chelsea at the moment. Because Inter Milan currently seems only able to hope that Chelsea will continue to loan these players.

[Pandu Geddon]

Nicolo Barella will refuse the offers from premier league teams that he has decide to staying much longer at Inter or at least until his contract expired on 2026 because he feel comfortable to playing at this team and indeed recently Barella has been linked to Liverpool and Newcastle and reported Liverpool are dare to bid 80 millions for Barella this because Klopp has been impress to his performance during last season especially when he can able to bringing Inter to advances to the final match of champion league and this is good news for Inter because at least they wouldn't lost their important player because last season Inzaghi always be played him for almost each matches in all competitions and this proves how important he is to Inter

the inter midfielder is doing well in Serie A as well as in the Champions League. No wonder Klopp was impressed and wanted to pay quite a fortune to get him. In Serie A Nicolo Barella played 35 times and that means he is always an option in the main squad. he managed to make 6 goals and 6 assists, plus 3 goals that helped Inter to the Champions League Final.
United are reportedly also interested in the Inter midfielder. but with the rejection made to the Premier League club, I think Inter Milan feels quite safe for their squad next season.

Juventus and acmilan interested in signing lukaku as new striker. That depends on lukaku's choice and how intermilan can afford to rebuy him from chelsea as permanent transfer again. Lukaku wants intermilan but it's all depends on chelsea.
Lukaku wanna play in a team that can put him as regular starter. That means intermilan is only team that can make it happen. Lukaku will put intermilan on its priority.
The decision for ac milan and juventus have not been made. Even though chelsea rejected ac milan but the club can change its imnd to sell lukaku to the juventus or ac milan.
Juventus and acmilan really wants him to join in the club. Let's see how this will be going on.

[Strongkored]

You are right that Nicolò Barella played quite a lot at Inter Milan with 35 appearances and produced 6 goals and 6 assists, so it is understandable when he prefers to stay at Inter because it is more fun to be a main player because when he moves to another club he will need time to adapt and sometimes not a few players fail at their new club.
What Inter Milan will be concentrating on right now is their striker who is still on loan, because there is no certainty about Lukaku, if Inter Milan still insists on getting the player then they must be prepared with the funds requested by Chelsea, if I'm not mistaken, it's around €40.00m, Inter Milan might get funding if Marcelo Brozovic goes to Al Nassr but the offer sent down by the Arab club makes Inter reluctant to let go of this defender, so Inter had to find a way to get funds to be able to make Lukaku permanent.

[JeffBrad12]

@JeffBrad12, Azpilicueta is actually going to Atletico Madrid.
Actually, he was a free agent. Otherwise, I think there might be another club trying to get him.

There is obviously some good transfer going on between AC Milan and Chelsea.
 But obviously, both of the clubs are thinking about which is going to bring the most of the money.

Atletico was coming to get azpilicueta after chelsea and azpi have been agreed to let azpi go out from the club as free agent. The different thing if chelsea was not let him going out with free agent and i don't think atletico madrid gonna try to compete with intermilan. I see that if this is the main point why atletico is now become the most favorite club to get azpilicueta after his contract terminated by chelsea.
Chelsea gives him a chance to get a new club for him. Chelsea respects him so much. Azpi has been giving so many trophies for chelsea. He deserves it. Im thinking intermilan gonna miss him.
It's caused by atletico madrid has bigger chance to get him now.

[Pulsar77]

It looks like Napoli are likely to keep many of their talented important players in the team this summer. There is still no offer for Kvaratskhelia and Osimhen as far as I have seen. Kvaratskhelia's market value is much lower than Osimhen but it is still 85 million euros. Not many teams would be keen on signing him both players right away. Especially Osimhen's departure is much less likely because the teams interested have to pay at least 130 million euros for his fee.

Kvaratskhelia's contract is until 2027 so there is no problem about keeping him for a long time. But Osimhen's is ending in 2 years. He might leave for free if Napoli wait for that long. I assume he wouldn't like to end his career at Napoli.

The amount for Osimhen to be paid for a potential transfer is also going up and down in the media. Sometimes it says 180 million and sometimes it says 130 million. I think that Napoli won't be able to sell him for 180 million as that is too much for him. If he scored close to 40 goals in the season in Serie A alone then maybe it could be closer to the 180 million, but for a strong striker with good scoring statistics, 180 million is too much. Kane's numbers in the Premier League are then better because the Premier League is the more difficult competition I would say also for a striker. But Osimhen to stay in Napoli is also not very likely unless they raise his salary and he has no reason to leave.

That is one way to maintain their form and form this season for the next season.
We know that right now Napoli is in trouble when there is no Spalleti as a coach this will make them have a different scheme with a new coach so with something like this of course they have to find another way and keep the same players to maintain performance and teamwork, at least that is one they will do.
At the moment their condition is actually quite unstable because Spalleti's departure will obviously change the scheme and strategy that they will implement next season, but with so many core players staying at the club, at least there are some conditions they can still maintain. their existing form and the new coach just needs to adjust. with the existing scheme and improve little by little so that their performance this season does not drop for the following season.
