⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[KTChampions]

Transfer rumours:

Manchester City are in pole position to sign Borussia Dortmund's Erling Braut Haaland - thanks to his father and former City player Alf Inge Haaland - when the Norway striker, 21, becomes available for £68m in the summer. I really didn't know about this fact. Will that decide the story of Haaland?
Real Madrid's bid to sign Haaland could be boosted by Adidas, who are looking to represent the striker following the conclusion of his contract with Nike in January. Which argument will be more important for Haaland?

Moving to City looks like an easy decision given that City can practically guarantee titles. But Real Madrid can also guarantee this now (thanks to the crisis of competitors plus the transfer of Mbappe), so there is approximate equality here. Most likely everything will be decided by money. If the rumors are true and Mbappe gets 50 million a year at Real Madrid, then Haaland could be offered a similar salary and maybe he will agree (I hope so).

Does anyone know the reliability of the source?

Bein are not a small name in terms of TV or sport but them bringing this story to the public is questionable if you ask me.

And i expect such kind of news to come from media houses closer to Manchester uniteds location, not these guys...

Anyway this rumor of pogba going to Juventus as always been there so am not sure if this is a true story.

From what they convey the interest in returning to Juventus belongs to the player Pogba himself.
A small detail... they say that the only condition of the Italian club for this return is that Pogba reduces his salary, which at first does not seem to be a problem for him.
What will be Pogba's motive for this? I do not know.
But anyway, there was already an expectation that he would go to Juventus in January, but that depended on a release from United, as his contract only expires in July.

I don't think the reliability of the source because it's just rumor at best. Pogba has been rumored and linked with about 3 clubs now - Madrid, PSG and back to Juventus. It's unclear now where he's going but one thing is obvious at this point and it's the fact that he's no longer interested in Man Utd. I won't be surprised if he leaves in the next transfer window.

That's right, Especially at this time he still hasn't made his contract clear which makes it even more widespread about the rumors of where he will be anchored.
I personally feel that Pogba will eventually leave United but of course he wants personal benefits because by leaving as a free agent I think the benefits he will receive will be much greater so he will take advantage of this later.

The Mirror reports that Real Madrid are exploring the return of defender Sergio Reguilon, who currently plays for Tottenham Hotspur.

When the Creamy released the player to Tottenham, they wrote a buy-out clause for just 27.5 million pounds, which they want to take advantage of.

Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti insists that the club return Reguilon to the ranks of his team.

Juventus has decide to sell Matthijs de Ligt this summer this because the player had decide to refused extended contract and rumors said Man Utd and Chelsea interested to bought him but the bad news from this rumours is price tag for him was so expensive approximately 80 millions euro

As far as I know I think Bayern Munich was also interested at some point? At least that was in the news a while ago, but I don't really know whether Bayern pursued that any further. However, they never confirmed that they were specifically interested in signing de Ligt.

I have not yet seen any news of interest in Bayern Munich's de Ligt from any reputed newspaper. But maybe Bayern Munich are interested since de Ligt is talented enough. But I don't think they would be interested in paying 80 million for de Ligt. This is a huge amount for players like de Ligt right now. Although Bayern Munich are rich enough clubs, they do not waste money.

It seems that Salihamidzic is a big fan of him and has been for quite some time, but then they got Hernandez I believe. The rumors came up this January, but Bayern seems to not be willing to play exorbitant amounts of money. I would say that makes it unlikely that de Ligt ends up in Bayern. Who knows maybe now that Süle is gone, Bayern must do something anyway and Upamecano has delivered some bad performances recently.

^ I just think that he is going to move to Juventus solely based on the problem that Manchester United is facing right now because Manchester United seems to be going nowhere in the current situation. Probably he is becoming homesick for this reason. I can't seem to think of any reason other than that.

Let's see if he actually leaves Manchester United and if Manchester United lets him leave.

I think that his best destination will be Real Madrid. Because, you know, there are not much competition in Spanish League nowadays.

And Kylian Mbappé moving to Real Madrid can also benefit him if they both play together they can complement each other's playstyles very well. But I am not sure what is going to happen. Money obviously is going to be a big factor here.

Price isn't a problem if they could find a way to reduce it by doing a player switch with additional fees to pay by one of them.
At least getting ride for those who don't want to extend their contract could be beneficial for the team not like ManU and PSG who risks to lose their best players for free..

It looks like Newcastle’s 92m GBP outlay during the winter transfer window is paying dividends.  They got a couple of good wins now and they’re 4 points above the relegation zone with a match to spare.  They’ve just recently won vs a tough opponent in Aston Villa.  The next match is obv vs another tough opponent, West Ham away.  Should be good imo.

But curious why Shelvey still plays the no. 10 role in a 4 - 3 - 3.  Wasn’t Guimaraes an upgrade for this role?

[Tony116]

What makes you think Dortmund would agree to sell him abroad when their business partner Bayern needs his services to replace the soon-to-be-gone Muller and Lewandoski? These guys aren't getting any younger, and the club's priority is Halland, and Dortmund has no idea when they'll come knocking. I'm not sure how business works there, but they'll get him cheap. To be honest, I'd rather see Halaand do it in another league, such as the Laliga, because the EPL is too intense for him right now.

Here I agree with your all statement most chances Haaland is going to stay in Germany because recently we have few thoughts from different ways that Lewandowski is going to leave Bayern and Muller is also having idea something like this with this all Dortmund will never take any suggestion outside Germany and surely England has never been good place for his skills and better performance if he wants to do something then surely he needs to stay in Germany or having some other place like Spain which is also unlikely because Real Madrid is having all sights on Mbappé and Haaland never like this to play with another star in team so most chances Bayern is his next destination and if we have something good news from Barcelona then this is second home for this star.

I really don't know if that's what's best for him though. I tittle think that it would have been better for him if he had just moved to real Madrid or probably any other big team where in that league the competition is really high.

That would have been the best option for his career as he could have proved himself to be one of the best in the world. But it is obviously his choice and time will tell what's gonna happen.

Back to back wins for them, glad to see Trippier scoring another set piece.
Maximiman deserves to play for a bigger team, he creates too many chances  in a single game
Shelvey still play coz the coach knows what best hecan give the team.

And Kylian Mbappé moving to Real Madrid can also benefit him if they both play together they can complement each other's playstyles very well. But I am not sure what is going to happen. Money obviously is going to be a big factor here.

Also, let's not forget the Benzema factor. Though he's aging, Benzema is still one of Real Madrid's most important player. For Haaland to move to Real Madrid, he must be ready to compete with the big man for that front spot.

While at City, he could almost become their first choice striker instant, though Pep is so unpredictable at times with his rotation policy.

Why look for a big club yet Newcastle has a potential of being a big club in a few years time with all the money they have?

It's not just about competition, I think Real Madrid + Mbappe + Haaland should beat other clubs even if they weren't in crisis. The Spanish championship is good for setting records - they love open football here and games are less tough than in the EPL, where often the emphasis is on physics. Earning the golden boot is much easier in La Liga than in the EPL.

it will most likely be like that because indeed they are mutually attracted to each other especially for Mbappe himself who has said that he wants to wear the madrid costume then this will most likely happen.
On the other hand, currently Madrid still need a striker, which is what it looks like now that when Benzema is not there, Madrid seems to have lost hope in scoring goals.
Even if there are quite a lot of strikers but there are still no good enough ones and with Mbappe I think this will be very profitable

Today I read about a rumor that Real Madrid is asking Haaland to stay one more year with Dortmund and then go to Real because they want to keep Benzema for one more year as he is still in his prime. It also would reduce the financial burden for Real, which is possibly a serious problem they will be dealing with very soon if they exaggerate. I think there is some truth to that because who in the world could sign Mbappe and Haaland in a single season. Just take into account the salaries... These guys will be 50 million + gross each plus the signing fee for Haaland.

Reading the article they quoted an Italian source called "ilbianconero".

This is a trash source so the twitted I've posted has no value at all.

Newcastle took a lot of risk in doing these transfer and i would guess that they basically need to stay in the Premier League in order to keep all those new players because i doubt that those typ of players are really willing to play in the second division for at least 1 year. With the recent performances it looks pretty good for Newcastle now and i think they will be able to stay in the league. But you never know if they get 1 or 2 unlucky losses in a row then the pressure will be instantly back and huge and this could of course lead to more losses and even more pressure with is kind of a downward spirale but it don't think that it will come to that.

Such rumors are not surprising and have already taken place before, when the conversation was about Haaland's transfer already in the winter transfer window. Another question is, I'm not sure that the footballer himself and his entourage will agree to waste the time of a precious career for another season at such a not very ambitious club as Borussia Dortmund. The potential competition between Haaland and Mbappe in the Real Madrid squad also raises questions. There is different information about this, and if in one case it was said that Haaland wants to be the most important star in the new club, then according to other information, the player is not averse to such a neighborhood.

Newcastle's performance is getting better after bringing in several new players in the January transfer market. So far Newcastle managed to get out of
the relegation zone and interestingly Newcastle managed to get 3 wins in a row. I really hope that Newcastle can stay in the Premier League, so that
it is easier for Newcastle to bring in new players at the end of this season. Because I believe in the financial strength that Newcastle has now,
if Newcastle manages to survive in the Premier League. Newcastle can definitely bring in some more players, in 2-3 years, I believe Newcastle
can compete in the top board.
