Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[klidex]

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.
......

I don't think Napoli are ready to lose their keyman to any elite club this summer, they've solid plans for the Nigeria international and keeping him would be their absolute decision. On the other end, Paris Saint-Germain are very persuasive in this case, since losing one of their keyman in the frontline, which will definitely affects them in all angles next season. It's up for Les Parisiens president, Nasser Al-Khelaifi to play his role and also involved the current coach, Luis Enrique to cooperate and tangled good signings.

Napoli is actually ready to lose Victor Oshimen if there is a club that is willing to accept the price set by Napoli. As we know, Napoli prices Oshimen quite high because this player is very valuable to Napoli and he also has the highest salary among the others. Napoli seems reluctant to cut him. The price of the player is that if no one buys him then Napoli won't lose, they will still use him for next season so they don't need to look for a new striker to replace this player.
Even though, if PSG signs this player, Napoli will buy Lukaku from Chelsea to replace Oshimen, but I feel that if this is just a drama about players and clubs, I'm also quite bored of discussing it many times.

I don't think Napoli is planning on keeping their striker Victor osimhen next season because from the rumors that are circulating here and there n the media it is is very certain that they want to take a good profit before letting him leave to PSG which I think he will become a good replacement for Mbappe who is now a player of Real Madrid.

The deal has not been sealed yet but with the current coach of Napoli becoming very interested in bringing in Lukaku to the team, I think there is a plot to use him as a replacement for Victor osimhen when he leaves for PSG.

Osimhen really wants to leave Napoli and he has said this to Napoli management and until now there is no certainty about where Osimhen will go, indeed PSG have held talks with him and Osimhen is ready to go there but it seems that an agreement will not be found because Napoli is the one who put him in Osimhen's price is very high which makes PSG have to think again, indeed PSG has financial strength but this transfer looks like they are not in a rush to buy players and I think this is Enrique's factor which makes PSG management have to make the right decision in spending money, especially to find a replacement for Mbappe.

Conte himself really wants to meet again and work with Lukaku again, but they will do it if Osimhen really leaves, but I think if Napoli don't lower the price, maybe Osimhen won't leave this season because the price that Napoli management is asking him for is very large and to bring in Lukaku it could have failed because Osimhen wasn't sold.

Although the player transfer market actually still has quite a lot of time because the Serie A transfer market is still open until the end of August. But if Napoli do not lower Osimhen's price then any team will still think twice about bringing in this player. PSG have made an offer that is actually quite high. But yeah everything doesn't seem to be going smoothly. Because Napoli has no intention of lowering Osimhen's price. So it is very likely that Osimhen's transfer to PSG will be cancelled. Because Napoli even asked for additional player Lee Kang-in as an additional fee, which player was not included in the list of players PSG would release. And clearly this will definitely make PSG think again about bringing in Osimhen. Because everything is not progressing at all. Even Osimhen's agent, who had flown to Paris, failed to make a deal.¹

I don't think Napoli are ready to lose their keyman to any elite club this summer, they've solid plans for the Nigeria international and keeping him would be their absolute decision.

You may be right because we have not really heard anything in regards to that case about the Nigerian player in Napoli, perhaps it could be that Napoli has realized that the player still have a lot of things to offer them if they decide to keep him, well considering the condition of the transfer market were every club is currently trying every means possible to make there club strong no club will like to sell there player that's still very active on there front line, so I agree with you because with the look of things I don't think he will be leaving Napoli this season maybe if they are to sell him it will be after this upcoming season because the competition is too much on this season.

I don't think Napoli are ready to lose their keyman to any elite club this summer, they've solid plans for the Nigeria international and keeping him would be their absolute decision.

I don't agree with what you say, because reportedly Osimhen is not included in Conte plans and even Conte has previously said that he wants to see Lukaku in the Napoli squad next season, from what is happening now we can conclude that next season if Osimhen still in the Napoli squad, it is none other than because Napoli failed to sell him at the moment, in the last few weeks and even Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Napoli is currently in negotiations with PSG regarding the possibility of selling Osimhen at this time, so I think that Napoli never had the intention to retain Osimhen next season if there is a team that can meet Napoli current price request.

Osimhen has actually received a lot of interest from PSG and also English league teams, but the high asking price from Napoli is an obstacle for Osimhen to leave at this time, PSG and Napoli have had several talks, but so far they have not received a final decision regarding the price of Osimhen and according to fabrizio romano latest tweet currently PSG have also withdrawn from their interest in osimhen.

Victor Osimhen should make a decision that would make him continue to shine or he regret it later, I don't seem to understand why he hadn't made up his mind on where he would like to play next season. Winning the league for Napoli is something I don't think will happen again even if he stays and this is the only chance he has to start up something new and I'd like if he either choose to play for PSG or any club in the EPL, fine the new coach Conte is a good manager that can turn things around for the club to bounce back to that glorious days but I don't think Osimhen should continue with the club after all they did to him on that video where they made a joke of him, that should be a lesson to look for a way and leave the club.
 For now the deal with PSG is not that clear if they are still interested and Victor on the other hand I'd still say he wants to stay at the club, which are we to believe because I don't believe much on what paper has to say in any transfer news until it's done, it could be that Napoli are trying to keep him by increasing his wage or something but I have that feeling that the player is a bit confused about his decision, weather to go or not.

In some rumors it is said that Osimhen has agreed to a personal cooperation with PSG and now it is just a matter of waiting whether PSG can conquer Napoli or not with the money they have because for now where Osimhen has agreed to move then I think only Napoli must be taken care of by PSG, especially about negotiating the release clause issue.

Seeing Fabrizio's tweet, it is actually said that in these weeks PSG will directly meet with Napoli to discuss a move from Osimhen so I feel that sooner or later PSG will definitely be able to bring Osimhen.

Napoli are still not budging by wanting to keep trying to sell Osimhen for more than 100 million but that is not a big problem for PSG because when talking about money it seems like it is not a difficult thing for PSG especially if they are serious about bringing in then sooner or later with the power of money they have, they will definitely get the target player.

PSG need this player and they are willing to go all out to get him and I can't say Osimhen doesn't want to go to the France giant, Napoli are ready to part ways with the striker in other to bring in Lukaku but the agreement is just the thing so let's not mind what the papers are saying. As it is PSG don't have a backup striker just Ramos and having Victor Osimhen is going to be a great addition to the team but can they be among the top 3 favorite to win the champions league next season? That's the important question they haven't answered even when they have Messi Neymar and Mbappe in one team.
 Napoli are not sure of the price tag on Osimhen and to me they don't know if they made a mistake by reducing it or not, but like you said PSG have all the money to get any player they want and a 100m is nothing to them and I think this isn't suppose to take long before pouring out all the cash on Osimhen.

Inter Milan have to be one of the most consistent teams in Europe in the last two seasons thanks to the managerial exploits of their manager Simone Inzhaghi. Last two seasons in the Italian Serie A, Inter Milan weren't that impressive as Napoli was flying high in the league that very season but Inter Milan still managed to reach the final of the UEFA Champions League competition which they narrowly lost to eventual winners Manchester City. Last season, they managed to up their game in the league which resulted to winning the scudetto.
As the defending champions if the Italian Serie A, I strongly believe that Inter Milan is still the favorite team to win the league title come next season because they still have over 85% of the players that helped them win the Italian Serie A last season as well as Simone Inzhaghi who has mastered the Italian league.

I don't think it has competitors at the moment, in Italy obviously.
The other teams are looking for their own identity and have neither strength nor consistency.
Milan is also going through a reconstruction and the friendly match certainly didn't go as well as expected.

I know that Inter Milan is the team dominating the Serie A tournament. Last season, they finished early and left the other teams by quite a distance in points. From smart shopping, and playing hard to not having any really strong competitors, Simone Inzaghi's mark helped Inter Milan win the Serie A championship for the 20th time in history.

But I still have a question: Was Inter's success last season a case of other teams falling behind and Simone Inzaghi's team taking advantage of that? Perhaps this is the reason why Inter Milan has no competitors right now. Either way, this seems like the ideal time for Inter Milan to shop for stars and build a team that can dominate Italian football for the rest of the decade.

I personally believe, this problem is because Conte does not want Osimhen and then, Osimhen is available for sale but at the same time Napoli still want Osimhen to stay. Because anyway, with the Napoli factor extending Osimhen's contract last season is also at least proof that Napoli want Osimhen to stay at Napoli longer. And also, last season also at the time of the contract extension, that Osimhen did prefer to stay at Napoli rather than leave.

Because anyway, last season also the fact that several elite teams have been interested in buying Osimhen but anyway, because Osimhen and Napoli have agreed to continue to cooperate, and then the contract extension also occurred. But unfortunately, Napoli's performance also declined and Napoli appointed Conte as Napoli's new manager as well as the fact that Conte preferred to buy Lukaku rather than keep Osimhen. Thus, I believe that if Conte had not made such a statement, then maybe Osimhen would still be fine to be at Napoli.

And also, last season also at the time of the contract extension, that Osimhen did prefer to stay at Napoli rather than leave.

Osimhen is important with Napoli and Conte actually likes traditional strikers in his previous clubs. He probably likes Osimhen too and the problem is that Osimhen no longer wants to play for Napoli and waste his time here. Perhaps Conte understands it and knows that he won't be able to convince Osimhen to stay. Perhaps he already tried to convince the player but fail so he and the club agreed to put Osimhen for sales on player transfer market.

Because anyway, last season also the fact that several elite teams have been interested in buying Osimhen but anyway, because Osimhen and Napoli have agreed to continue to cooperate, and then the contract extension also occurred.

Thus, I believe that if Conte had not made such a statement, then maybe Osimhen would still be fine to be at Napoli.

Lukaku and Osimhen are very similar strikers so if Conte like Lukaku, he does like Osimhen. Selling Osimhen and buying Lukaku will help Napoli and Conte have a good extra money to buy one or two more players. It is helpful budget for them to improve their squad before a new season.

[RaltcoinsB]

Now this has become like a riddle. People want this transfer to end now. Regardless of which team Osimhen goes to, the transfer should be finalized now. Napoli will sell him, we know that now. With this transfer, a certain fund will be created. They will transfer other players with this fund. They want to be champions once again next year and that's why funds are needed.

[giammangiato]

Yes, the only reason is because Napoli still hope that the price for Osimhen can really match their expectations, but in fact, both Chelsea and PSG have not yet negotiated according to Osimhen's lowest price target. Because this is also related to the calculation of the fee they will receive, Napoli don't want to suffer losses, but on the other hand, Osimhen is no longer like he was in the transfer market last season, who in fact used to be very popular and that's the term hype. This season, his performance is not as optimal as before, so, it is not easy for other clubs to want to negotiate Osimhen according to Napoli's request, it is still too high.

We all think that the price asked by Napoli is too high, I trust in Antonio Conte, a professional like that cannot be bossed around.
I am sure that he will lay down the law and will make sure to sell Victor Osimhen and take Romero Lukaku as part of his plans.
The market is still open, so it's not over yet.

If the player you mean is Victor Osimhen, then I think Napoli still really deserves to keep him in the squad next season.
Osimhen is the center forward most targeted in this transfer market because basically Osimhen is a quite productive striker. He is good to play as a target man in the game schemes of many coaches, including Luis Enrique. But I agree that it seems Napoli are not ready to let him go.

Napoli could certainly sell him if they found a worthy replacement, but this is a challenge. It is difficult to find a player with the same goal productivity as Osimhen, even if there is, Napoli must be prepared to pay a high price for that player because other teams also expect big profits. Not sure if Osimhen will go to PSG next season, but maybe it will be good for the player's career.

[Velvet78]

People must be tired of seeing Osimhen discussions. Because it is still an unresolved situation.    Napoli is actually okay with bringing Lukaku in his place. However Osimhen needs to leave first to make it possible. It is sad to see that even Saudi Arabia seems like an option for Osimhen. I mean of course he can make tons of money. However he will waste some of his most productive years in that case.

If Napoli isn't pushing Osimhen to leave then maybe he might stay instead of taking Saudi Arabia option. Because PSG also doesn't seem keen on buying out his release clause. They don't even want to pay more than around 100 million euros if I'm not wrong.

The sooner the better, so that other plans are not delayed, as you said Napoli are relying on the benefits of Osimhen transfer to build squad depth. Apart from that, the benefits will be many, including Antonio Conte having more time to prepare the team. If Osimhen transfer continues to drag on, we might all get bored too, so it's better for De Laurentiis to stop dragging his feet in the negotiations. Rumors are growing that PSG has reached a verbal agreement with Osimhen, but an agreement with Napoli has not yet occurred because PSG refused to include Le Kang In as a trade-in for Osimhen transfer. It seems like this is a sign that Napoli will have difficulty competing for the Scudetto next season.

Developments regarding Osimhen's transfer have not progressed at all. And it always ends in a deadlock due to the club not wanting to lower Osimhen's price. Last month Arsenal withdrew from the hunt because of this. And now PSG could withdraw from the hunt after failing to reach an agreement with Osimhen's agent and the Napoli club. But what really needs Osimhen's services right now is PSG. Because they need an attacker to fill the empty space left by Mbappe. Maybe Napoli thinks that PSG will again increase their offer price to Napoli. But I personally think that PSG might stop chasing Osimhen if Napoli don't give a discount. And yeah last season regarding Osimhen in the transfer market was also quite boring. Because last season, even though many people wanted Osimhen, no one dared to make an official offer. But the difference is that last season Osimhen himself still wanted to stay at Napoli. This is different from this time where Osimhen also wants to leave Napoli. But the club seems to still be having difficulty finding a club that is willing to pay the player's release clause because it is still too expensive.

Rumors will abound. Unless Osimhen is transferred to a full team, we may hear a new rumor every day. We can say that this is a habit of the transfer window. There are rumors like this in every transfer window. Some turn out to be right and some turn out to be wrong. Victor Osimhen is a quality player, but the economic opportunity he brings from the team will be more important for Napoli.

With the way that I see this transfer deal going forward, Napoli to me is kind of playing games and trying to make huge profits with this Osimhen's deal, and aren't in a hurry to sell him as he still has quite a number of years to play and for them to suck the young star, starting from when they make him sign a new contract in other for them to increase his transfer fees. The discussion about this Osimhen's transfer is likened to be compared with that of Kylian Mbappé that usually became the most discussed deal but ends up not happening.

Since PSG aren't agreeing terms with Napoli, then they should strike with other interested buyers like Chelsea who are willing to offer them Lukaku alongside the transfer fees.

Well, new rumors or new news will always continue to emerge. And yes it is a normal thing that there is true news and there is also fake news. But so far about Osimhen there really isn't much wrong news circulating. It's just that all the media keep repeating the narrative regarding Osimhen and several speculations about Osimhen continuously. And the news that currently continues to emerge regarding Osimhen is about PSG not intending to pay Osimhen's release clause which is worth 130 million euros. And yes, Napoli heard this and apparently did not lower Osimhen's price and would actually agree to it if PSG was willing to provide one additional player, namely Kang-in Lee. And PSG clearly immediately rejected this request. because this player, Kang-in Lee, is still an important part of PSG. And PSG suggested sending Carlos and Nordi instead of Kang-in Lee. And yes Napoli also rejected this. And in essence, Osimhen's condition has made no progress at all in the transfer market. I'm starting to feel sorry for Osimhen now, because maybe his desire to leave the club will fail this season.

Inter is on an increasingly improving chart. In recent years, they have started to move forward all the time. They also won the championship last year. The next target is the European Champions League. After the final they lost to Manchester City, they are ready for a new scenario in which they can become champions. Their squad is better than last year and gets even better with a few good transfers. The most popular team in the Italian league recently. That's why Inter is one of the strongest candidates for this year's championship.

It's very true how inter has momentarily been of a brilliant progressive improvement in the past season and it's very deserving of every commendation. One challenge they will keep facing and may not easily get over will be the champions league. I'm not saying or proposing that they will not be able to win the champions League some day but with he recent evolutions in the champions League, they will need do more than just a regular kind of work to be able to beat the norm, getting to the finals at a point in time was a clear indication that have the potential to winning the trophy but they didn't try even better on their second trial after the time they made it to.the finals.

I think they will get better this year because they are very successful as a team. They won the league title very easily and still kept some key players in the team. I can say that Inter has a high claim for the championship in this tough competition between teams. I think they will do their best in a tough tournament like the Champions League.
