Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Lillominato89]

Of course he would be loved by the fans after he leaves but the amount of money Napoli wants for him is way too much for the time being and there is a possibility that he may not end up with a good return neither. I think it's quite important to remember that he is not that good for too long now, he hasn't been a star for 5 years or something, and I think he may stay because of this.

Nobody would want to spend 180 million for him, and even 150 million would be a question mark, somewhere close to 100 million would be more than enough, that's it, nothing more and Napoli doesn't accept that. If they keep on rejecting that then it means they are not going to end up with anything decent and we are going to see them do a lot worse next season.

No elite club is prepared to pay a premium price for Victor for the reason that according to his statistics, he is not consistent in league performance; he may have been in the spotlight this season, but next season he will not be among the league's best players. Although I am still keeping track of him closely, I believe he would perform better in the Seria A division, but moving to the EPL would highlight his flopping era in football. Victor Osimhen is an overhyped market player, with a market value of more than €180 million. He would be retained by Napoli for another season. The crowd laud the Nigerian striker's outstanding performance.

180 million for Osimhen are disproportionate, he had an excellent season with Napoli but a single good season is not enough to give such a high value to victor! Haaland according to this criterion should be worth 500 million minimum! I think Napoli don't want to deprive themselves of their best striker also because they wouldn't find a valid alternative on the market, but if they don't sell for 180 million they will most likely never be offered this amount again to Napoli

It will certainly be tough for them. Some players are also going to leave the team. That is going to disrupt the chemistry of the team as well. It is certainly going to be hard for them. I am also hearing that there is going to be a big offer for Victor Osimhen to stay on the team. I don’t know if he's actually going to stay or not. But I think Napoli is doing the right thing by trying to keep him in the team. I don’t know if there will actually be successful to do that. But it’s good that they are at least trying.

Today, information has already appeared on the pages of the Football-Italia publication that Osimhen can extend the contract with Naloli, he will receive a salary increase, and besides, he initially wanted to continue his career in Napoli. I saw the news that Chelsea are interested in him, but perhaps 100mn is not the amount for which Napoli are ready to let go of such a talented striker.

The value that Napoli wants for Victor Osimhen seems too crazy, but I think that's how Napoli want to keep their best striker at the moment. Victor Osimhen has stats worth paying a hefty price for when a team is interested in him, but for his current value, that's just too crazy in my opinion. Even if Napoli manage to sell Osimhen for that price then I think they could get Mbappe for the same or maybe two other top strikers for half that.

These are just Osimhen's stats in the last 3 seasons for Napoli in Serie A. Over hype? That sounds possible.

That's the way all clubs should work. Put big price at best players you don't need to sell them and if someone wants to buy they need to put big money. Good Job Napoli.

Yes, I agree with you, that is Napoli's way of keeping Osimhen from the temptation of other clubs who want his services. Setting a high price will make interested clubs think twice about recruiting him. Becoming the Top Scorer and winning the Scudetto with Napoli in Serie A made Osimhen's price on the market soar, but Napoli seem reluctant to let their players go to other clubs because it is very difficult to find replacements at the same level as Osimhen.

Next season Napoli will compete in the Champions League, and they want to defend the Serie A title. Automatically they need a solid squad to be able to reach their targets, I think that is the reason Napoli don't want to let go of their striker. After releasing Kim Min Jae to Bayern Munich, Rudi Garcia will do everything possible to keep the star players in his squad from leaving.

But still Osimhen knows that he can earn more money if he goes to another club and he is probably going to be more successful as well. Napoli is a good team, but I don't think that they will perform like that in the Serie A on a regular basis. They will be one of the strongest competitors, but I think it is still a big difference to play for a club like Real Madrid or for one of the strongest teams in the Premier League. I don't expect him to stay, but who knows maybe he knows what he has got in Italy.

Napoli slapped that price tag on Osimhen because they are not willing to let go of him. They know nobody would but him for 150 million, talk more of 180 million. But if any club is ready to pay that much to buy him for that amount, Napoli has nothing to lose. 180 million euros can be used to strengthen that Napoli squad so well.

If Osimhen is to leave Napoli his should go to Liverpool. He will definitely play well in Liverpool. Liverpool will create chances from the midfield and wing next season and that is a strikers delight. As a goo striker once chances come from different part of the pitch you will definitely excel.
Bayern Munich too is another club that Osimhen will fit in so well. They also create chances for their strikers. I would not want him to go to Manchester United or Chelsea.

[Sterbens]

I actually felt when I saw the price that they wanted Napoli to be free from many offers so they set a big price for Osimhen.
Seeing from the conditions if there is a club that really intends then they will profit but if there is no club that dares at that price then they will not be harmed either because in the end Osimhen remains for them.
But this kind of scheme will be different if in the end PSG and Mbappe really part with a big price there because with that there will be a domino effect where there are rumors that say that if in the end Mbappe leaves with 250 million more to another club then PSG is ready to bring Osimhen at a price of 150 million.

[emrecemsan]

There is a significant level of decrease in Milan's performance compared to the previous season. They have dropped down to the 4th place in the standings from being the champions. They still managed to make it to the Champions League which was important for them. But for example they couldn't have even made it to top 4 if it weren't for Juventus' 10-point deduction by federation decision. This isn't a successful year for Milan as a result and they need to prepare for next one by considering that.

They have just sold Tonali who was really important in the defensive midfield position. They will surely need to fill his place. They should make some moves for the defense area as well because they conceded so many goals this season. Lastly they need a proper striker rather than Origi and Giroud now.

I don't expect him to stay, but who knows maybe he knows what he has got in Italy.

I don't also expect him to stay if a strong club is ready to pay the amount Napoli placed on him which is very high. Osinmeh is a good and flexible striker that will perform very well if he sees people that supplies him with passes for him to do the finishing. Napoli wouldn't bring out the best in him and with Napoli he wouldn't win a lot of trophy.

Osinmeh is a man that will love to exploit in football and will prefer playing in a different club rather than playing in Napoli for long. He will fit into Real Madrid if they are ready to sign him. If he leaves Napoli,I don't think that Naopli will be able to win Serial A again.

Napoli will really be bad enough if they let Oshimen go. Because he contributed very well last season and scored a lot of scores, and became one of Napoli's key players in the Serie A victory.

Certainly it will have a certain impact, moreover they also have a new coach which of course will require more adaptation. However, with a coaching style that is quite similar to Spaletti's, I'm sure that Oshimen and the other players will find it easier to adapt and do their best like last season.

 There are still a few more rumors of players who will be brought in by Napoli such as Max Kilman and others. So indeed Napoli certainly wants to defend the next Serie A title even though it feels a bit difficult.

180 million for Osimhen are disproportionate, he had an excellent season with Napoli but a single good season is not enough to give such a high value to victor! Haaland according to this criterion should be worth 500 million minimum! I think Napoli don't want to deprive themselves of their best striker also because they wouldn't find a valid alternative on the market, but if they don't sell for 180 million they will most likely never be offered this amount again to Napoli

I don't think there are any big teams from the EPL who are really serious about Osimhen, because he sided a lot in several offers that came to him so that his interested team withdrew from recruiting Osimhen. Napoli are still adamant they will accept the highest bid or close to their desired price. Apart from that, Manchester United will not be in a hurry to make this transfer, especially since they are in the process of acquiring the club to a new owner.

Apart from that, maybe Osimhen will stay more with Napoli if no team is really serious about getting him. Real madrid doesn't seem to be bothered to spend a lot of money on this signing but they didn't do it for osimhen even though osimhen has expressed his intention to join real madrid.

[Ndabagi01]

I don't think, Napoli will be able to win this Italian league title next season because one of their potential striker is willing to join premier league team next season to showcase more skills in a way he will have a good record from the team like the way he got a good record from Napoli by helping the team to lifted Italian league title this season. I believe, Napoli management will do something fast that will make the team stronger even though they will not achieve next season title, they can take second or third position from the tournament. Next season will going to be a tough season for Napoli, because it will be difficult for the manager to get a young talented striker like victor Osimhen in this summer.

There is always a plan B underneath every move a team makes to cover up if plan A fails in the long term. That is why they are substitutions in football. Since Napoli has recently been connected to other teams who are interested in him, the scouting department would be preparing for that, or perhaps a replacement is already in place. Victor Osimhen's departure will be a significant loss for Napoli in terms of striking and finishing the game on the first touch. Whatever Osimhen's decision is, it’s fine with me because he has done well to catch the attention of several big clubs.

CEO of intermilan has been confirming that if lukaku has become its priotity before the transfer season gonna end.
https://sempreinter.com/2023/07/03/alessandro-antonello-signing-romelu-lukaku-chelsea-priority-inter-milan/

It's clearly a good news for chelsea caused by club doesn't want to keep lukaku even longer in the club. Chelsea needs only to decrease his price and i think that intermilan gonna buy him again as soon as possible.
So many interest came for lukaku but it's still uncertain which club that will able to get him from chelsea.

Juventus, milan and inter have become teams that have interest in signing lukaku.

From what I saw on TV in my country and on YouTube channels in Portuguese, Inter does not want to pay 40 million for Lukaku, that is, for Inter, Lukaku is not worth that price and they also want to pay 30 million and loans, and even so for for inter to carry out this transaction, inter would have to sell certain players, there are some that I saw that they are wanting to sell, but even with that sale, inter would not pay 40 million for lukaku, so I see that inter will choose the path of keeping the lukako on loan, that way if chelsea accepts then lukako will stay at inter. definitely an uncomfortable situation for lukako because in the last games of last season

he saved inter from almost certain defeats by scoring goals that gave inter victories, so in my opinion it would be worth it if inter paid the 40 million, but from what i see inter has focus on other players, which means that even if lukako remains the risk for him to continue sitting on the bench and not in the starting eleven is still a very high risk, the best option for lukako would be to start looking for another club, I heard that he doesn't want to go to arabia, but honestly he is 30 years old and if he got a 3-year contract in saudi arabia then he would have done a good deal, because he would be 33 years old, because if now at 30 years old few teams in europe want him and for the low price, so at 33 no one in europe will want him

I saw the news that Chelsea are interested in him, but perhaps 100mn is not the amount for which Napoli are ready to let go of such a talented striker.

€100m is very logical in my opinion for a player like Osimhen. While he should be the target for all top teams, Napoli aren't willing to let him go like that! For example, Kolo Muani is being targeted by PSG and although there isn't any agreement yet, but signing him will reduce the chances of getting Osimhen.
Now hearing that the player himself want to stay in Napoli then I assume it will be a waste of money to not get that big amount of money from selling him but the positive side, Napoli could be the favorite candidate for the scudetto next season with him in the attack line.

[AndySt]

Real madrid doesn't seem to be bothered to spend a lot of money on this signing but they didn't do it for osimhen even though osimhen has expressed his intention to join real madrid.

As far as I know, Viktor Osimhen is close to extending his contract and the problem with increasing the player's salary will be solved to the mutual satisfaction of the player and Napoli. Another question is that if Osimhen manages to have the same powerful next season, even if Napoli cannot repeat the success with Scudetto, I think it will be very difficult for Napoli to keep the player for another season. Yes, and I hope that the club will not cause obstacles by deliberately wringing too huge a price for a football player.

[Uruhara]

I think Napoli don't want to deprive themselves of their best striker also because they wouldn't find a valid alternative on the market, but if they don't sell for 180 million they will most likely never be offered this amount again to Napoli

I think Napoli is deliberately setting a higher rate than the normal price. because they really don't want to lose Victor Osimhen from their squad. and yeah it's true they'd even be hard pressed to find a replacement Osimhen if their Osimhen were to let loose. so by setting a high transfer price is for the big teams to give up on the hunt for Osimhen. And so that Osimhen stays in Napoli longer. But if there is a club that wants to redeem 180 million euros for Osimhen. then Napoli will clearly benefit financially but will be disadvantaged in terms of club performance in the future. because they will lose their flagship player and I don't think they will find a replacement anytime soon.

Whatever Osimhen's decision is, it’s fine with me because he has done well to catch the attention of several big clubs.

Osimhen was one of the best strikers last season so it's only natural that many big teams want to buy him from Napoli. I think the Napoli management will already have another striker if Osimhen does leave in this transfer window. Even though the team wants to keep Osimhen for next season, if there is a tempting enough offer, Napoli management will be ready to release Osimhen to another team. Even Osimhen duel partner on the kvaratskhelia front line is also very much related with a number of big teams in Europe.

So it's not at all surprising that if a team really wants to improve their finances then the option of letting go of a star player would be their solution just like Dortmund did. But still there is a significant setback in their depth of strength for next season. For this reason, Napoli management is expected to decide everything that is best for the progress of the club for next season so that it can compete more strongly at the top of Serie A.

[asriloni]

Napoli doesn't wanna let him to go the another club. that's why the club was putting such a big wall for him. he looks so expensive but people must understand if it's a part of napoli's strategy to defend him from another club.
If napoli was putting €100 mllions as his release clause and there would be many clubs already triggered it. That decision was coming from napoli as the club is a party that can determine the price for osimhen's release clause.
I think that napoli can find osimhen's replacement easily with that amounts of money. It's likely osimhen will not be leaving from the club in summer.
he will stay at napoli for one more season. It will be also decreasing his release clause as his contract becomes even shorter compared with this time. No guarantee if osimhen gonna win scudetto again with napoli.

[TelolettOm]

Vlahovic is a 23-year-old player who plays as a striker for Juventus and also for the Serbian national team.
He is also quite a talented player in my opinion to make Chelsea interested in making an offer to Juventus for Vlahovic.
The offer submitted by Chelsea was still not commensurate with the performance provided by Vlahovic for Juventus, so it was only natural that Juventus rejected the offer.
Instead of accepting the offer, I'm sure Juventus will keep Vlahovic as one of their core players considering that Juventus really need great players this summer.

True. The offer isn't enough for Juventus. They must reject the offer below the market value. They know Vlahovic is a potential striker and can be better in the future. Vlahovic is still 23 years old, there is still a long time for him to grow his ability. I'm sure Juventus wants him as their future asset, so Juventus prefer to keep him. But if there is an interesting offer, Juventus may change their mind.

I do not understand
In my opinion, Juventus is not in a position to refuse
true potentially it's worth 70, but if they give you 60 and since you're in a bit of a bad way with the money, take it and that's good
there's no point in throwing money with a player who doesn't want to play with you (among other things)

It is not too complicated, you should understand it. Vlahovic is still young, has a good performance, and worth €70 million. If you are Juventus management, you must reject Chelsea offer because it's not worth the Vlahovic's value. Moreover, Vlahovic has stated that he wants to stay with Juventus for a more season. So, Juventus has no reason to sell him at under market value.
