Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Zaguru12]

Speculation is still circulating regarding these 2 players but so far there is no accurate information does this mean that both players are staying with their clubs? Now Lukaku is back in the Premier League and he is 31 years old, if Chelsea don't let him go to Napoli or another team then they will lose value/money. I personally still support the first option Chelsea and Napoli swap players I mean Osimhen moved to Chelsea and Lukaku moved to Napoli of course Napoli get +money as compensation because Osimhen's market value is higher than Lukaku.

The two players have just been unlucky not to be at peace with their respective clubs and now the dilemma of a separation i what we are in. I see you made a suggestion of a direct swap which would have been straight up but the problem lies that Chelsea do not want Osimhen and that’s why the swap wouldn’t work. The only club genuinely in Europe set to sign Osihmen is PSG who again needs to let go of one of their current strikers are looking at the high price set by Napoli it will be hard to meet and they need to reduce it to allow Osimhen leave.

As for Lukaku he already had a personal term agreed with Napoli and is ready to take half of what he currently earns at Chelsea. The only thing is Napoli do not want to pay the 27M that Chelsea is demanding and are suggesting a fee around 15M to get the deal through

But about Morata of course this is the right transfer or purchase because after all, Morata also has a lot of experience in winning many trophies with the Spanish national team, and then won trophies when playing at Real Madrid, Juventus and Chelsea. Of course, with the great experience that Morata has, it will make Milan's attack line better later.

Yes, most recently, Morata was part of the players of the Spanish National Team which won Euro 2024. He has a lot of experience in several top clubs and also the national team. Actually, he is a potential player. And AC Milan signed him, even with a contract until 2028, right? This is enough proof that AC Milan believes that the 31 year old center forward can still be more productive and optimize their performance. only perhaps one of the highest risks is the possibility of injury which is quite high. However, with a release clause of €15 million (£12.64m/$16.3 million), it is quite worth it for AC Milan. Now, he will wear jersey number 7

Source: Alvaro Morata will pair up with Christian Pulisic

His career started in 2010 at Real Madrid B and then went to several clubs both with transfer purchases and on loans. And at AC Milan, Morata will be paired with Christian Pulisic, who is actually a Right Winger, right?

Talking about Milan, today they played a friendly game against SK Rapid which is a very weak team, I honestly thought that Milan would be able to win even playing with players who are not the best in their squad. But Milan still drew and what surprises me most about all this is that Milan's coach is playing a friendly game and not putting his best players to play, this can affect the performance of each player and can greatly affect the team's performance. because the coach is new, he should use this opportunity he has in friendly games and get all the players to play to learn how to create a good formation for the team



Milan's former coach also had this problem of not taking himself seriously in friendly games and putting players on who didn't even play in the team and as a result Milan was a disaster, I hope Morata wasn't unlucky enough to play in a team that didn't play in the team. won't achieve anything, because honestly if he was lucky enough to have gone to Inter, then he could win the title, because Milan doesn't seem to be a consistent team and I see that even with a new coach some things won't change

........... But precisely at this time the clause and the high price are a barrier for Osimhen to leave and when Napoli needs money to recruit Lukaku from Chelsea, if Osimhen leaves automatically Lukaku will be the main target to replace him, but I think it will be a big gamble for Napoli later, indeed so far Lukaku has performed quite well if he plays in Serie A but we cannot be sure if he will be very effective to replace Osimhen role at Napoli Later, besides that Lukaku old age, of course, it is only possible if Napoli signs him in the short term..

It is actually depending on the board of Napoli itself. If they want to lower the transfer fees of Osimhen, it won't be so difficult to sell Osimhen. PSG agrees to sign Osimhen at €120 million, it is a huge money. If Napoli is serious to sell Osimhen, they must agree with €120 million. Unfortunately, it is rumored that Aurelio De Laurentiis wants Osimhen to stay in team, that's why he set huge transfer fees. As far as I know, he wants €150 million if PSG wants to get Osimhen.

If Napoli is serious to sign Lukaku, they won't pay for a very expensive price. Chelsea only sets a minimum price at €29m - €30m. I think Napoli has the money, I don't know why they must sell Osimhen to sign Lukaku. If they want to sell the current players, they can sell other players. There are Giacomo Raspadori and Giovanni Simeone who can be the options to put on the transfer list. If Napoli succeed to sell these players, it is enough to pay the minimum price of Lukaku.

It is quite strange indeed with the attitude of Napoli management to complete Osimhen's transfer because it is clear that they no longer want Osimhen because they are already targeting Lukaku and also with all the problems that existed last season between Napoli management and Osimhen, it is appropriate for Napoli management to immediately sell Osimhen in the transfer market this season, if not, it is very likely that next season Osimhen's market price will fall much further.

Napoli are quite serious about bringing in Lukaku because that is the wish of their new coach Antono Conte, so regardless of the Osimhen transfer drama, I am sure this transfer will be realized, Lukak will come to Napoli and Osimhen will leave.

Napoli are quite serious about bringing in Lukaku because that is the wish of their new coach Antono Conte, so regardless of the Osimhen transfer drama, I am sure this transfer will be realized, Lukak will come to Napoli and Osimhen will leave.

It is very difficult to understand that Conte really wants to bring in Lukaku even though Lukaku is in decline and Chelsea does not want to give Lukaku a loan they want a permanent purchase of this player of Belgian descent, and it is possible that Chelsea is asking a high price to let him go to Napoli even though this player is already 31 and It would be better for Conte to want a younger person to invest in the long term, even though they have worked together, Lukaku is really not a player who is ready to score goals like he used to be.
Osimhen really wants to leave Napoli but until now no one has been serious about signing him, so in my personal opinion it is better for Conte to try to calm Osimhen first and convince him to become an important project in his team next season, because Conte is one of the coaches who has experience so with him staying there is a possibility that Osimhen will return to his form and next season it would be better for him to leave Napoli because currently many teams are hesitant to sign him because last season was a decline for him, so I want him to stay at least one more season to restore his performance.

Throughout his career, Alvaro Morata has only played for big clubs and in my opinion he is an underrated player who is rarely discussed. He is always successful with the team he plays for and is always a mainstay. He has won quite a few titles with top teams, but at Atletico he never won anything.

A contract until 2028 sounds quite excessive and it seems like Milan wants to make him like Giroud who stayed at the club until his old age. The cost is also not that expensive considering what he has won and the most important thing of all is his experience and maturity in the opponent's defense area. It looks like Alvaro Morata's position will still be a striker but will be accompanied by Pulisic and Leao as wingers so this is a trio to be reckoned with.

Ac Milan apart from looking at Alvaro Morata's abilities, they also look at this player's experience. Yes, his experience as a player is beyond doubt, he plays regularly for the club and he always gets the opportunity to play for the Spanish national team and most recently he was successful in becoming one of the players who helped Spain win Euro 2024 in Germany.
He is 31 years old now and AC Milan gave Alvaro Morata a fairly long contract, so it is clear that AC Milan wants to maximize this player's abilities and experience to help AC Milan achieve achievements. However, I hope AC Milan doesn't forget that they also need regeneration, which means they have to use the time available to look for young players, at least to act as cover and slowly provide playing time.

It seems like you have too much expectations in pre-season matches and the results will always be surprising. Of course these two teams just want to try various strategies and if possible they will play their main players. But what we saw was not as expected, instead Milan played their young players and we should have been careful before placing a bet if we knew there would be a possibility like this.

A draw is not a bad result, but for a club as big as Milan it is certainly still a negative value and even if they use young players they should be able to win quite easily. The difference in level between the two teams is very large, but again there are things that cannot be explained and as a bettor you have to be prepared for the risk of losing your bet, friend.

That's not the case, AC Milan recruits older players because the AC Milan team doesn't have a lot of money to buy potential young players, that's the reality and this has been happening for a long time.
However, for Alvaro Morata this is an advantage for AC MIlan because Alvaro Morata still has very good quality, making it possible for Alvaro Morata to make a big contribution to the team in the next few seasons.
There is no good regeneration from AC Milan, they will not spend money to buy potential young players except players who shine at the academy or players who shine when they are already at AC MIlan, apart from that, it must also be admitted that AC Milan's management is quite good. It's good to build this team to stay at the top despite this method, it should be appreciated.

[Velvet78]

Milan has signed Morata maybe but they are likely to lose Luka Jovic at the same time. Fenerbahçe is said to be interested in him. But it is just a rumour for now. They are actually close to signing En-Nesyri. If it happens I don't think they would sign another CF while there are many of them.

I assume Milan wouldn't be upset too much by Jovic's possible departure. Because he wasn't already playing properly. But in case he leaves they would absolutely find a replacement. There are other CFs too like Colombo and Nasti as well but they prefer to loan them just as they did previously.  

Samardzic is said to be on Milan's radar by the way.



There are so many CMs in the squad though. But I think it is absolutely worth signing him and getting rid of one of those players. He is really talented.

For your information, Chelsea rejected the first 15 million euro offer by Napoli. Again, Chelsea never requested 27 million euros for Lukaku. This is far from what they desired, which is 40 million euros. A Chelsea representative stated that they would never accept any offer far from what they asked for. The best way for Napoli is to sell him to PSG. They will receive 100 million euros as a return. Then, they  use the 38 million euro profit from selling Osimhen to buy Lukaku from Chelsea.

I think Conte is still trying to push Lukaku's transfer. Yet again, many rumours have said that Osimhen is also getting closer to joining PSG. I strongly support this decision. Napoli shall not always stick to Osimhen as their main attacker. Selling a player at their peak is the best

This does seem strange, so some people can't understand the thinking of the management of the Napoli club, even though players who are still interested in other teams will be much more expensive than selling players who are no longer interested in other teams in the coming season. And this could happen to Osimhen if Napoli continues to postpone the transfer or agreement about releasing Osimhen to another team at this time. However, if we look at the considerations themselves, it is possible that Napoli still haven't found a player who is more suitable for them at this time so they are still reluctant to let Osimhen go by making a decision straight away.

There are Giacomo Raspadori and Giovanni Simeone who can be the options to put on the transfer list. If Napoli succeed to sell these players, it is enough to pay the minimum price of Lukaku.

I doubt if Aurelio De Laurentiis doesn't want Osimhen to leave Napoli. The club doesn't want to sell Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and they made it clear that they wouldn't entertain any bid from any club. But they have made it clear that Osimhen is for sale. The club's target is to raise money from his transfer that will enable them to fund their transfer plans. They already know that the Nigerian striker is no longer comfortable paying in Napoli and wants to leave at every good opportunity.

Napoli doesn't want it reduce the asking price for Osimhen but they want Chelsea to sell Lukaku at a discounted price. Lukaku cannot replace Osimhen because both of them are not in the same class. Lukaku has passed the prime of his football career while Victor is in top form and still can improve more if he plays under the right coach. Napoli will still need a younger striker that will serve as a backup to the Belgian international. Osimhen will be glad to leave Napoli because he has had a sweet and bitter experience.

lukaku will never be able to replace Osimhen for the simple fact that to score all those goals you simply have to do them and lukaku has been a static player for too long and is not capable of scoring all those goals now if Conte likes them they will surely take him but they won't take him I see myself capable of such an adventure

Inter Milan had a perfect performance during the last two years but they are trying to keep themselves up and be stable and that's why Inter Milan hired some players during the summer and spent too much money for these players to get the team improved.
After hiring some players like Taremi from Porto, now they are close to hiring Pau Torres from Aston Villa however this won't be cheap for Inter Milan at all because the contract of Pau Torres will expire after four years.

Yes, Inter Milan has so far recruited many new players to navigate the new season in Serie A, so that they can continue to appear stable and consistent in the fight for the title. and it looks like Inter Milan won't be chasing Pau Torres from Aston Villa too much, because the main focus of Inter's recruitment in the transfer market this time is Robert Renan, Jakub Kiwior and Johan Vazquez, and the recruitment budget for the defense line is limited by Inter Milan, we'll see who among them, the inter milan can get

Inter Milan is trying to make their squad even more solid, one of which is by wanting to bring in a central defender from Spain, Pau Torres. Aston Villa has only worked with this player for one season and is now interested in Italian clubs. He has a fairly long contract with Aston Villa which will end in 2028, of course Inter Milan have to dig deep into their pockets to get this player's signature.

Aston Villa themselves have not provided an answer to the rumors circulating, but what is clear is that if they were to let one of their players go, they would not just let them go or in other words they would ask for a fairly high fee to take advantage. The reason is that this player was a mainstay with Aston Villa in the previous season and his performance was quite good in protecting the defensive area. So Aston Villa will have to find a replacement if they let him go and that will definitely cost money, so there has to be a commensurate return they can get.

Intermilan have spent almost 56 million euros to sign 5 new players namely Carlos Augusto, Davide Frattesi, Josep Martines, while Piotr Ziellinski and Mehdi Taremi  their  get with free at the moment, Intermilan who last season won the Scudetto seem eager to be able to defend their Scudetto title next season and are currently trying to bring in some new players.
Previously I thought that Intermilan would be difficult financially after they were acquired by the new owner now, but in fact the new owner Intermilan is quite enthusiastic and provides great budget support for Inzaghi to continue to strengthen his squad, last season Intermilan became a team that only conceded very few goals but they are currently still trying to make their defense better that's why Intermilan is very interested in bringing in Pau Torres from Aston Villa, Pau Torres still has a 4-year contract left with Aston Villa but the opportunity to get Pau Torres is still wide open if Intermilan offers a high price for Aston Villa, currently Aston Villa has poor finances so any offer that comes to them will definitely be considered.

Inter Milan which is already having good squad because they won title without any problem due to their solid performance and having things well under control, but they are keep bringing few skilled players which can give them strength for the next season which is going to be challenging because few clubs are already doing good changes, and we can expect better results from them.

Pau Torres is important for the Aston Villa which is also having Champions League connection but if Inter Milan will insist about this transfer then surely we will have around €30 Million transfer fees for this player because he is 27 years old and have 4 years contract which mean Aston Villa still need him with their next season challenges now in next few days we are going to have the good number of transfers which will make things interesting for few clubs because we are heading for the start of the season in few 4 weeks.

Every player on the front line, especially a striker, must always receive good passes from his teammates in order to score more goals against his opponent. But if a striker doesn't get this, of course anyone in front will always find it difficult to score goals, including players like Lukaku. And from the matches that Lukaku has played previously, including the Euro match, of course everyone can judge what Lukaku's condition is currently. So it is very possible to say that Lukaku will find it difficult to replace Osimhen if Osimhen is really released by Napoli at this time.

Napoli isn't just trying to get every penny from PSG or anyone else by charging €150 million. A power move, pure and simple. Napoli knows they have leverage with Osimhen's goal-scoring ability. It's about telling the world they won't be intimidated in the transfer market, not simply the money

Now, Lukaku. His beastness is undeniable. He differs from Osimhen. He will secure the ball, make room, and provide a lot of expertise. This doesn't replace Osimhen; it expands Napoli's offensive. The tactical shift is smart, in my opinion. And if they can shed some dead weight, even better. It frees up cash for talent acquisition and provides Conte greater freedom to create his team. Never believe anyone who says Napoli's going crazy
