⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[emrecemsan]

Arsenal are targeting to sign Benfica left-back Alex Grimaldo now and they have already submitted an offer worth 6.4 million pounds. He has one more year left for his contract to expire now and his current market price is 20 million euros. Considering this I find this offer quite low. Benfica might not accept this offer. Because he is a regular player for Benfica at the same time. Arsenal have Tierney and Tavares already too by the way. Having three left-backs at the same time would be quite many too.

Pogba is going to be an invaluable asset for Juventus. Juventus played it really well because they did not spend too much money and they got some promising players.

Promising huh, well in fact one of the reason that he wanted to leave Manchester United was because he was asking for higher wage but it was declined. He thought that the other club would be willing to pay him higher but he couldnt find one that is willing to pay that high therefore he went to Juventus. He has probably regretted his decision because in the end, Manchester United's offer was higher than Juventus lol

It might be a wage issue but definitely not the only reason that pushed him to run out of the sinking boat of ManU.
First, Pogba isn't at his best with ManU. Secondly, his teammates are disappointing. Third, they have management issues and the team is quite unstable, without a clear future and not playing Champions League.
There is enough reasons for him to try his best with another club and Juve welcomed him.

Arturo Vidal is one good and agressive midfielder no player in the Seria A would want to match up with. The Chilean have reach brimmed agreement with his present team, inter Milan to terminate his contract and then sealed Flamengo deal. Fans trolled the Vidal, some consider his actions as form of betrayal while others pay his tributes. Vidal can still do better in his new team, Flamengo. His contract with the team will be valid until December 2023.

Yeah signing both will really make things hard for Barcelona.

Kane replacing Lewandowski is just fake rumor. With Spurs performing great last season, Kane is really crucial for Spurs right now as they have CL and have to perform in PL as well. Kane is their main striker who is helping them in attacks so I am sure that Spurs have no plans to sell him. Besides if they were to consider selling him, a club need to make a very good bid to sign Kane.

I also predict Tottenham will not want to let Kane go in the transfer market this summer. because the contribution of kane and Son last season was extraordinary where Tottenham was able to pass arsenal at the end of the season and tottenham was able to occupy the 4th position when the competition ended. So the tottenham board members will definitely not sell their star and they will keep kane no matter what. Moreover, Conte and Kane have a pretty good harmony of course the coach will ask him to stay with Tottenham next season.

That should be their goal for the champion, but realistically speaking, even the quarter-finals can be a good goal in my opinion because their opponents are too strong in this league. As for the Premier League, I think the Spurs team has the potential to be better than teams like Chelsea and Arsenal this season. Spursta, as there will be important player changes in the new season. Tottenham did not include Tanguy Ndombele in the camp because he did not think about it in the new season. The team is basically strong, they can push their targets with a few improvements.

I honestly think that Tottenham is going to be much stronger than Chelsea and Arsenal in the upcoming season. They have made some pretty big changes in the team. I really like that change, and many others do as well. It appears that the team is really balanced going into the next season. It is my prediction that they will at least reach the semi-finals of the Champions League and do decently in the English Premier League as well.

I'm quite optimistic to see the significant changes shown by the Spurs at this time, judging from the hunt for players they really really use it quite perfectly. So at least occupying one seat for the Champions League is quite wide open than Manchester United and Arsenal. Spurs are very enthusiastic and the compatibility between players and coaches is now starting to look more intimate.

You know what? I think this will probably be the time when Harry Kane will finally be able to win something with Tottenham. An authority is looking for a flawless team. I am not willing to say that they have succeeded 100% in that mission but they have certainly done well enough to raise big hopes. Next season, Manchester City should be the champion again and Liverpool and Tottenham should be fighting it out for the second place.

That would be utmost great! Conte has done an amazing job throughout the year, Tottenham has stepped up it's game. Can't wait to see what can be done next season, hopefully with more players to come, especially increasing quality on the back/wingers position.

Arsenal submitting 6.4million pounds could be an opening bid and if Benfica rejects the bid they will have to submit an improved bid and if they succeed in getting Alex Grimaldo, Tavares will have to leave on loan for further development. Tierney seems to be injury-prone and Tavares isn't reliable and inconsistent, it will be good getting someone else as a  backup for Tierney.

[Pulsar77]

Ousmane Dembele deal is done! Barcelona have offered a contract to him and it seems like there is an agreement between two sides now. His contract is expected to be until 2024 and he is said to have accepted even a 40% pay cut too. This is a really big self sacrifice. He was already wishing to continue playing for Barcelona therefore he must be contented with being back here. In this case I wonder if Barcelona will give up on signing Raphinha after this deal. I don't think there is a need of transferring a second right winger to the team.

I hope his second spell in Juventus wouldn't be anything like his time in United, even though his failure in Manchester United was partly his fault; i can understand why Juve fans are excited by this move, Paul was quite good when he played for them in his first spell, so they are expecting the same, the fan base i'm quite sure wouldn't admire Pogba even the slightest bit would be United fans, they expected so much from the French man, but he was nothing close to their expectations. Having said that, for the sake of Pogba's career, i do hope he rediscovers his form and commitment to football, he definitely has the talent, but that sometimes isn't enough, he needs to add hardwork, discipline, desire, etc to his game in order to take his career to the next level.

Juventus fans understand that Paul Pogba has many advantages so that the return of Paul Pogba to Juventus is like a longing that is fulfilled. Pogba will feel different when playing in Turin because under pressure at Manchester United he was the most expensive when recruited from Juventus.
In 2017, Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard once praised the extraordinary figure of Pogba who was able to develop well even under pressure as MU's most expensive player at that time. According to Gerrard, Pogba has a good pass. Pogba's strength can help United defend and threaten through free-kick techniques.
Along with his later journey at Juventus, he must change the habits that are often done at Manchester United, don't go forward too often because it will make it difficult for his teammates in midfield.

Pogba is going to be an invaluable asset for Juventus. Juventus played it really well because they did not spend too much money and they got some promising players. They acquired two excellent free transfer players, Paul Pogba and Angel Di Maria. I am actually looking a lot more balanced than I did last season. And the fans being excited about the next season is very much justifiable. I am expecting a good performance from them in the next season. It's just a matter of hoping that all the players find their form quickly and that Juventus also starts the next season much better than last time.

Yeah with the new additions of good players like Paul Pogba and Angel Di Maria, there is going to be a big change in their performance. The midfield looks much balanced and I am also expecting a better performance from Juventus next season. They really played it well this time, getting two top players for free is a really good one. The fans will be so excited and hope these players find their form also.

will Harry Kane be Robert Lewandowski's successor at bayern munich?!
this was reported today by the german sports magazine kicker. the 28-year-old striker still has a contract with tottenham hotspurs until summer 2024.

Tottenham management won't allow him to move to any club now, I believe it. They are trying their best to build their squad, Harry Kane is clearly an important player for the club. So, how can they allow him to leave? Although they have Richarlison, it doesn't mean they are ready to lose Harry Kane. Richarlison is a player to support Harry Kane, not to replace him. In my opinion, Antonio Conte plans to set Son-Kane-Richarlison as Tottenham main attackers on the line ups for the next season. Even if Bayern wants to sign him, I assume Tottenham management won't let him go.

Yes, Harry Kane has an important role for the Tottenham Hotspur squad, it is difficult for other teams to try to talk to Tottenham so that Kane is released. Especially now that they don't have a replacement and even I see they are not yet interested in signing a replacement and moving in the transfer market this time. He's already had his game melt down with his Tottenham team-mates.

Harry Kane is a really good player but I don’t think he’s a player who can be compared at the same level as Robert Lewandowski. I think it is going to be a rumor and nothing else is going to come out from this. I don’t see Robert Lewandowski leaving Bayern Minich right now but even after that I don’t think this is going to happen.

I think Munich is just forcing Chelsea to spend more money, but I think Chelsea have thought about this and seems they're let Munich to succumb and lowering the transfer fee. I guess it's fine to sign Lewandowski in the next year, so Chelsea had nothing to lose.

They have bought sterling, although a little different position I think with sterling they are already very good. As for Lewandoski, I don't think he needs to be the main target. They should have chosen to buy a Defender, because they had lost two defenders. In addition, some of their defensive players have also entered old age. I think Tuchel should rethink, if he makes lewandoski just a reserve player.

You are right, these two players cannot be compared because these two players play in different leagues and as we know the Premier League is more difficult than the Bundesliga. maybe if Lewandowski goes to the premier league this summer he will surely find it difficult to score a lot of goals because the defense and playing patterns of the premier league team are very different from the teams in the bundesliga.

Regarding Kane from some of the posts above I read that he wants to leave, is this rumor true or is it just being exaggerated by the media because so far there is no strong rumor that Kane will leave Tottenham.

Yeah I really agree with you on this, for now Chelsea should be focusing on replacing their defends line, they really need to work on their defends if they really want to look stronger next season. with the addition of Raheem sterling, the teams Frontline is actually looking stronger, perhaps I also think bringing in lewandowski is necessary but the club really needs to focus more on the defends line, cause that's the most important thing.

[harapan]

Imagine can at Bayern Munich and he will score countless goals. Lately it is all about football stats now and no longer individual performance and contribution in the field.
Lewandoski has scored few goals from outside the penalty box, all the goals he had all came from tap in into the the net.
Lewandoski also would not have done the way Kane has done , the premier league are for hustler. Both players are good but I go for Kane.

christensen had previously stated that the chelsea defense line was very fragile and must be repaired immediately and the chelsea management realized this as well

chelsea are not only focused on sharpening their attack line, they are also hunting for defenders. Reportedly, chelsea is after nathan ake and laporte but to get laporte it looks like chelsea will find it difficult because the fee requested by man city is very large and also laporte prefers to stay in man city, he doesn't want to move to chelsea

Actually Chelsea have also realized they need to buy defenders to fill the position left by Rudiger and Christensen. Therefore Chelsea are trying
to bring in Matthijs de Light, Jules Kounde and Nathan Ake. But so far only Nathan Ake Chelsea will soon get, Nathan Ake will follow his teammate
Raheem Sterling, who will soon become a Chelsea player. Although many doubt that Ake will be successful with Chelsea, but because Chelsea's need
to bring in defenders is quite urgent, so it looks like it will soon become a reality that Ake will be joining Chelsea soon.

Moreover, according to the news that Nathan Ake has agreed to the contract offered by Chelsea, now Chelsea only need to negotiate a transfer fee
with Man City. Reportedly Man City asked for a fee of 45 million pounds if Chelsea really wanted to buy Ake, which I think is too expensive for Ake
who rarely gets the chance to play at Man City. So Chelsea will definitely negotiate with Man City to get a much cheaper price to be able to buy Ake.

Manchester United are doing all they can to finalize the Frenkie de Jong deal for themselves. They agreed upon the transfer fee as far as I know and they were discussing the add-ons after that. They might really be close to happy ending now. Laporta said before that Frenkie de Jong was still happy to be part of the team. However he doesn't seem like he is opposing to this transfer too. Barcelona are going to have much work to do in case they sell him. On the other hand this transfer is going to help them raise funds significantly too of course.

Besides if they were to consider selling him, a club need to make a very good bid to sign Kane.

I believe if Raphinha should complete a move to Barcelona (which is said to be now closer than before¹) then, there's every likelihood of Lewandowski not joining Barcelona can't afford it, especially if they're forced to pay outrightly, and that also means Frenkie De Jong will almost certainly move to Man Utd as well due if not Barcelona would be in more awful shape financially, Ousmane Dembele had to accept a massive 40% pay cut in order for his contract to be renewed ², so I'm wondering where the huge wages that Lewandowski and Raphinha will get would have to come from.
Personally, I would have preferred Barcelona hold on to De Jong and let go of the Lewandowski idea as he's going to be a free agent next summer, and with Sergio Busquets contract also ending next summer and Barcelona have no intention of making a renewal, or at most an extra year, it would literally be better off for the club to retain De Jong.

Barcelona will surely not be able to get both Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha together right now because they certainly don't have the money to get them together. And I really don't understand what Barcelona is trying to do right now because they don't have the money to make this type of transfer. And yet they are going for players who cost more than 50 million.

I really don't know how Barcelona is going to manage their money going forward, I really hope that they don't have to sell any more players to manage money just like Lionel Messi.

1st june are the last report i heard about de jong having a direct talk with the player and fc barcelona , it's been a month now and there is no update i can found through the trusted source. It could be the deal stalling ... as fabrizio romano  usually bring this thing to the table but yeah so far not much progress he could deliver to us , he is an amazing trusted source that sometimes the players wife didn't know his husband next move but fabrizio know it all lol.

De jong seems wanted to stay but the club need a splash of money .

Lewandoski also would not have done the way Kane has done , the premier league are for hustler. Both players are good but I go for Kane.

I think this is still a consideration by Bayern Munich to attract Kane to their club because until now, if you look at Lewandoski and Kane, the most goals scored last season were with Lewandoski, so it is very clear that he can play very professionally and can work. similar to several teams that can finally score a very large number of goals, if Lewandoski is released from bayern munich it will be advantageous for clubs who want to add attacking players with the best predicate who can make a very high contribution.

And I really don't understand what Barcelona is trying to do right now because they don't have the money to make this type of transfer. And yet they are going for players who cost more than 50 million.

I also don't know why Barcelona really wants both Lewandowski and Raphinha. They are in financial crisis, but they are linked with many players. Lewandowski isn't needed actually, they already have Aubameyang as a strong CF. But for Raphinha, I can understand that they are trying to sign him since they have no a quality player in the right-winger position. They didn't extend Dembele contract, so they lose their main right-winger.
