⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Mr.right85]

Chelsea need to sign at least a defender, because they lost Antonio Rudiger  to Real Madrid and Andres Christensen to Barcelona already. They need other additions too in other areas but some players needs to make way for the additions to take place. The Chelsea on loan player at Crystal Palace I believe have been brought back from loan, because they need his quality in this Chelsea midfield. Misfiring timely Lukaku needs to find his scoring ability in front of goal and win games for the London club. The German duo of Kai havertz and Timo Werner  have to produce the kind of form that made Chelsea curve out that large sum of money to acquire their services seasons ago. N'golo kantes's injury woes needs to be paid attention to in order to stand fit and pick the form that made him premier League player of the season some years ago. The new owners have a lot of work to be done in the club come next season.

It's more reasonable, instead of having to buy players at high prices, while his contract only has a year left and Lewandowski isn't young anymore. Barcelona has limited funds anyway, so if they insist on signing Lewandowski for a high price, then other players will have to be sacrificed.
~snip~

I heard that they have a debt of 1.5 billion Euros. I think the current players are already good enough for Barelona. The best thing is to relieve debt so that the team will not be destroyed in the future. I don't think Xavi is very demanding of management. If Lewandoski is expensive, maybe they can choose other players. Currently they also still have Aubameyang and Adama Traore. Last season they were pretty good. Although if De jong goes to Man United they will get money, they should have other options to be more efficient for the long term.

There is no such thing as personal problems when it comes to sportmanship because the players are paid to play and to give their best when they are on the field and the fact that he cant deliver his best performances means he isnt fit to play in EPL. Its the toughest league afterall and its definitely not for everyone to shine in the league though

A personal problem surely exists, a footballer or a sportsman is just a human, he isn't a robot. One of the problems with Lukaku is Chelsea tactics, he seems not really comfortable with the current tactics. It probably makes him hard to show his best, feeling uncomfortable or not confident can give a big impact on a player's performance. Moreover, if he can't adapt to a new strategy, supporters or fans will try to blame him once he can't make many goals as expected. So, if it looks hard to find the solution, letting him go may be a fair decision.

It ain't EPL that is not suitable for Lukaku, he is just difficult to adapt to Tuchel's tactics.

It will take a while of course for the paper work to be done, but the transfer is guaranteed and finished already, Mane is definitely leaving. I do not know why Liverpool did something like this. They have been acquiring some new players here and there, maybe they are just trying to get younger and I would understand that but Mane was just 30 years old. He could have provided great work for another 5 years at least and that would have been awesome for them.

In the end I suppose it is more about them being not compatible and Mane just wanted to leave, if the club and the player came to an agreement to not work together anymore, a sale would make sense of course.

Sadio Mane is 30 years old. And he is at the peak of his career. He's about to make perhaps the most important contract of his life. He has good reasons to leave Liverpool. And Liverpool also have principles in their transfer policies. They implement tight monetary policies on salary. This separation occurred inevitably. Both parties parted ways in a professional manner.

It looks like Ten Hag wants to increase the potential in the midfield but this is a natural thing because United's midfield has always lost this season and also not much ball supply is given to the forward players.
My back line is actually expecting a major overhaul there because the current defenders they have are just big names but not in performance.

Are you sure he's going to be signed by Manchester United? Looks like the current coach is comfortable with the current squad  
I haven't seen Man United make so many bids on different players and fans have been angry about it. I think Ten hag just loves building players from zero as he has been doing  in Ajax

It's clear the midfield will be Erik main focus this summer. several players have become the target of erik maybe one of them is De Jong. It's also possible that some ajax players are in their sights to be brought in this season, the reason is because Erik already knows the strengths of every player he has coached at ajax. if we talk about the down side, maybe there will be a new face who will enter the starting eleven next season. Harry Maguire, who did not perform at his best last season, may be replaced next season with new players Erik will bring in.

But here is the question, does Chelsea still have the market locked?

It seems like they have no problem with signing players anymore. Because I assume they aren't chasing many players to sign now for nothing. Chelsea are very determined to make their lineup solid now and they are continuing their attempts for it. Maybe they can finish the transfers they want a little late in the transfer window but they can still reach their goal. They need a defender and striker first. I'm saying striker too because Lukaku is obviously leaving soon. Lewandowski is the best candidate but Chelsea have at least one rival in this race: Barcelona.

Yep, but I can't remember anything official.
I can only remember that they had the market officially closed with the Russian war but I can't remember they unlocked it after the sale of the team.

Erik ten Haag really needs to be more serious with this team, he really needs to be careful, Manchester United recently has a  good squad but I think they are lacking mismanagement, they are all living all the work on Ronaldo they don't play as a team again, there total dependant is on Ronaldo. They lack possession and creativity in their games, he really needs to be more serious and discipline to his players, if he really want to build the team.

Although if De jong goes to Man United they will get money, they should have other options to be more efficient for the long term.

reportedly MU's offer to Barca regarding de jong is still happening (because Barca put a price of 80 million euros while MU asked for 60 million euros). Apart from that, it is reported that MU management is still unsure about De Jong, but this is Ten Hag's wish. I hope for the best that happens to Barca and their debt can be resolved.

like the news circulating at this time the manchester united envoy was in barcelona to take care of de jong's transfers. If the bid doesn't touch €80M I don't think Barcelona will want to let De Jong go. If assessing the figure of De Jong is very important for Manchester United next season, I think Manchester United should not offer a price that is far from Barcelona's target. And one more problem, Manchester United did not qualify for the Champions League next season, maybe this is also a reason for De Jong to think twice before accepting Manchester United's proposal.

I believe that Erik ten Hag will bring in new players, especially since we know that Man United have left several midfielders behind. And also
Man United's defense is very bad, so Man United really have to bring in some quality players. The problem is the way Erik ten Hag buys players is
different from the previous Man United coach, where Man United often competes on price with other teams to get the players they want.
Whereas Ten Hag didn't want to spend too much money buying players, and Ten Hag didn't want to repeat the mistake of the previous coach which
brought in players at a very high price and did not make a good contribution.

Therefore Erik ten Hag is more careful in buying new players, like the negotiation process that took a very long time to get De Jong from Barcelona.
That's because Ten Hag is trying to buy De Jong at a price that is not too expensive, so it takes patience in negotiating. So Man United supporters
don't need to be angry if until now Man United hasn't got a new player, it's better to just support Ten Hag. Because Erik ten Hag was experienced
enough to get good players at cheap prices when he was still Ajax manager, I believe Erik ten Hag can build a better Man United squad.

[herurist]

Yes, he will and Yes it was all about the money.

Honestly I respect his decision even if it was 100% about money. Whether you treat everyone the same whether you have to accept the underpaid guys to leave.
I can't work in a place where I am working hard and get paid half what the others receiving.. It is unfair.
If we take it from another perspective, AFAIK Mane is doing many charity actions in his native village, not sure how accurate that was but to say that he isn't "hungry" about the money.

Mane is not a money hungry player, he is one of the most generous football players, a lot of his money is spent on charity. The reason Mane moved from Liverpool was not because his salary was small, as long as Mane in Liverpool uniform has never been included in the list of the top three Ballon d'Or. Mane wants to find a new adventure to achieve his ambition to win the Ballon d'Or. Bayern Munich really dominates the Bundesliga, it's difficult for RB Leipzig and Dortmund to break Munich dominance, this Bundesliga giant is also successful in Europe. Mane can realize his ambition with Munich.

Agree with what you say because money is not the main goal of this player considering that he contributes a lot to social activities in his country by spending his personal money.
I think his reasons from the start were clear enough, he wanted to find new experiences with a new atmosphere in the competition. When it comes to money, it is clear that Liverpool still have a chance because if you look at them before, they have also offered an extension contract with an excessive salary.

If the asking price matched .. i think de jong will easily join manchester united , despite he is happy at barcelona , he will understand that selling him with such huge amount could help the club a lot who reported currently needed 500 million euro injection to save the club from a long long time crisis.

Manchester united are leading the race now , putting 10 million more and im pretty sure barcelona would agree.

This deal is very complicated for Manchester United board, because frank dejong is very important for Barcelona,he plays a big role to dictate Barcelona play the way Xavi Hernandez wants it, and also ten Hag wants Dejong more than anyone,he wants to pair him with Van Dan beek, and another thing Manchester United needs to try very hard to convince him to forget champions League because Barcelona can provide him with that.

[kawetsriyanto]

According to a tweet from @FabrizioRomano, Fiorentina and Real Madrid are in direct negotiations for Luka Jovic on a loan deal. It seems that the Serbian striker will have another chance to convince Real to keep him. The Italian club wants Real to pay some of Jovic's salary.

This will be the solution for Jovic and Real Madrid. He rarely played in Real Madrid, he needs to move to another club that can give him more chances. We can't claim he isn't a good striker, he only doesn't fit with Ancelloti strategy. I hope Real Madrid will consider Fiorentina offer seriously, it will be a better way to improve Jovic's performance. For Real Madrid, this is also a good one because with Jovic leaving, there is 1 spot for a new striker.

Liverpool are braced for the prospect of losing Egypt forward Mohamed Salah, 30, for free next summer after refusing to meet his £400,000-a-week contract demands. Will Liverpool really allow another big star of the club, Salah, to leave after Mane leaves?

This is quite interesting news to me because I'm still expecting to see Salah playing for Liverpool for more years. Liverpool shouldn't be like this and they should find a way to reach an agreement with him. After hearing about Barcelona's interest, Salah seemed to be leaning towards joining them next summer. A team like Barcelona is always tempting for many players so Liverpool had better extend Salah's contract as quick as possible. Salah's departure would affect them really deeply otherwise.

Barcelona no longer has a financial problem. their financial magicians have devised a plan to revitalize the club and how to make extra money. 
now the team from the area can get together and play recreational football at Camp Nou. 

FC Barcelona are now allowing weddings to be held at the Camp Nou for prices ranging from €1600 - €13,500.

They will also allow fans to play a 60-minute match at the stadium between June 6 and June 11 for a fee of €300 per person in order to pay off their debts.

It ain't EPL that is not suitable for Lukaku, he is just difficult to adapt to Tuchel's tactics.

Every coach has their own tactics and pattern of play, and players move to new clubs every now and then and fall under new management with a different coach/tactic, it is the responsibility of a good player to adapt to how his manager wants him to play, you can't make an excuse for Lukaku of not adapting to Tuchel's tactics, that is why he is a professional footballer, he needs to understand the game better, Chelsea didn't pay the huge sum they did for him to complain about struggling to adapt. Erling Haaland is coming to City next season, and he is going to play under one of the most demanding managers in Pep, with a new strategy and responsibilty, but we all expect him to shine, more of the problem is on Lukaku's technical abilities if he is leaving cause he is struggling to adapt.

Tottenham are unstoppable in the transfer window this summer after bringing in some new potential Players in the team. Spurs coach, Anthonio Conte is not holding back because he's aiming to meet up his goals and targets for next season. He's targeting to bring Lautaro Martinez from inter Milan to his present team, but Inter have turned down the offer claiming and smashing €100m on Lautaro because he's one key player in the team since the departure of Romelu Lukaku. But, it seems Inter Milan won't sell any of their Keyplayers this summer, they will only do when they either have a replacement for him or the team is probably interested in the player meets the price tag. Inter Milan also rejects Skriniar bid coming in from PSG. Conte never gives up, he would still go again for Lautaro

They allowed weddings at camp nou since 2011 though , media just exaggerrate things.

Barcelona are in big trouble with over 1 billion debt now , they can only doing business to transfer their players out and replace it with a cheaper transfer , de jong for Martín Zubimendi for instance.
Poor barcelona.
