⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Tumanggor]

Well i didnt expect Dani Alves to stay for such a little time in Barcelona. I dont know why Barcelona even signed him again it was just a waste of money and now he moves to Mexico to play football and most of us never heard about this club before

I think he himself didn't thought that he will be staying for a little time there. Dani Alves signed a contract till the summer and Barca didn't provided him contract extension when it reached its end. It was clear that he will leave. Maybe Barca thought they didn't need him anymore.

what else can Barca expect from a 39-year-old player? for barca, it was a wise decision

from the news circulating, Dani Alves officially plays for the Mexican club (Pumas) he does not want to retire because he still wants to maintain his fitness and is also still one of Brazil's mainstays in the 2022 world cup

Each manager have special relationship with his player and I saw between Frankie de Jong and Erik Tan Hag as Manchester United manager both them have know each other. Tan Hag know how talented have by de Jong and he want his guide player when playing on Ajax Amsterdam move to Manchester United. But still can't reach with agreement transfer values make de Jong can't move to Manchester United or he keeps try stay with Narcelona for next season. Erik Tan Hag never give up how trying to get de Jong from Barcelona and he still find with midfielder player for Manchester United.

I think the only reason why a transfer off Frenkie De Jong to from Barcelona to Manchester United was ever treated as a real possibility was only because of the fact that Erik Ten Hag is now the coach of Manchester United. Everyone knows that Ten Hag and Frenkie De Jong had an incredible and very successful time together at Ajax Amsterdam and as far as i know they both really like each other. The fact that De Jong does not really want to come to Manchester United even though the new trainer is a huge fan of him and probably would do everything to sign him say all about the current state of Manchester United in my opinion.

It is recorded that Manchester City have already made an offer worth 30 million pounds for Cucurella. However Brighton have rejected it and their demand from Manchester City is 50 million pounds now. There is a really huge interval between these values but of course Manchester City don't have any issue with money at the moment. They would just like to sign him for as favorable price as possible. Cucurella is one of the best left backs in the Premier League now by the way. After Zinchenko's departure this transfer would be awesome for them.

He will definitely be a terrific addition for Manchester City and the player they may need, as well as competition for Cancelo, who has excelled at left-back throughout his career. Since Pep was there, Manchester City hasn't had a standout left-back, and Oleksandr Zinchenko has gone to Arsenal. Manchester City have usually spent £40m to £50m on a full back since Pep arrived.

Cucurella is indeed very interested in joining Man City and it is reported that Guardiola has admired Cucurella for a long time. The problem is that
Brighton know that Man City desperately need a left-back position, especially after the departure of Zinchenko. So Brighton deliberately set a very high
price and it becomes a transfer constraint, not because Man City don't have the money to pay the transfer fee that Brighton wanted. However,
we know that Guardiola does not want to buy a player who is considered too expensive.

We will see if Man City will make a second offer, after the first offer of 30 million euros was rejected by Brighton. Even Premier League analyst and
former Liverpool player Jamie Carragher said buying Cucurella would be the right decision, and can cover Man City's weakness in the left-back
position. Moreover, Cucurella is also considered to have a style of play that fits perfectly with Man City's style of football. So if Man City can get
Cucurella, then Cucurella will likely adapt quickly. I believe Man City will continue to negotiate with Brighton to get Cucurella, besides Cucurella has
actually been the target of Man City for quite a while, Man City also desperately needs Cucurella to strengthen the left-back position, 
where the left back position for Man City is quite weak compared to other positions.

Yes obviously, Manchester City have declared their interest in the player from the start of the transfer window but had to wait for departures before going for replacements. With Zinchenko joining Arsenal it will give space in the left back wing for Cucurella to immediately fill in. It will be easier for Cucurella to settle in quickly as he is the kind of player to suits their kind of football at City, Manchester City  will have to go all in for this one if they really want him as Brighton are being reluctant to reduce the value placed on the player.

João Cancelo have acquire a new number in the club due to the departure of Raheem Sterling. The team jersey 7 now belongs to the Portuguese as his performance have really helped the team forward line and his crosses and straight outside long shots have all contributed to Manchester city winning games. Also, there's this special thing about the player which can play both right and left basically have accurate tackles in games and have confidence when ever he's with the ball in action.

He is going to be an extremely valuable player for Manchester City in the defensive line. It is also true that defenders are not very confident when they have the ball at their feet. They have to take one on one challenges. But João Cancelo is someone who drives in this situation. Likewise, the defense's one-on-one skills are outstanding. The presence of someone with this level of versatility is always useful for any team. And if Manchester United actually wants to win the Champions League this time, they will have to utilize this player properly.

Nottingham Forest are getting stronger with their transfers indeed. Their biggest transfer has been Awoniyi for 20.5 million euros. He is a skilled 24-year-old centre-forward now. His performance in the Bundesliga last season was satisfying too. I think that the Lingard transfer is another important one for them. Because Lingard has already proven that he can be much more productive when he plays for a different team. The scenario was like this while he was playing for West Ham.

Totthenham and Arsenal have really done some reasonable piece of business this summer in the transfer window,and I believe this happens because they are fierce rivals to each other,they will be looking forward to fighting for the top four next season.Totthenham have gotten Perisic,Recharlison and Bissouma.Those three signings are signings that can improve a team,while Arsenal have gotten Gabriel Jesus,Vierra,Zinchenko, Marquinos,,and Saliba arrived from loan.These signings will really add quality and debth to the team,and we'll look forward to seeing a fierce competition between the two London teams.

Although have good memorize between De Jong and Erik Tan Hag with successful time on Ajax Amsterdam still not enough for Manchester United get him. Bad finish out from champion league spot I think reason why transfer de Jong from Barcelona until nowadays not success. Maybe de Jong not happy have to miss champion league next season if leaving Barcelona and play for Manchester United. I tjink if can't deal with de Jong better for Erik Tan Hag forget him and looking for other midfielder than have waste time without good achievement.

Dortmund have an interest in Luis Suarez after learning about Haller's medical condition. I hope that Haller can recover in as short time as possible also. Luis Suarez has been free agent for some time and he has been rumoured with some MLS and Argentina league teams also. If Dortmund make an official offer to him I think that his choice can be them. We haven't ever seen him playing in the Bundesliga so far therefore I'm curious how good he would play there.

Former Salzburg striker Karim Adeyemi could be an alternative if Haller is not fully ready for the Bundesliga match, and there are names like Moukoko and Reus. I don't think Suarez will be introduced as a new Dortmund player because I see the deals with Adeyemi and Haller recently quite appropriate as a form of change after official releasing Erling Haaland to Man City.
By the way I just see Matthijs de Ligt join Bayern Munich, the right choice to replace Niklas Sule

I don’t think Luis Suarez can be a viable alternative for Haller.

Of course, he can be a replacement for a short period of time. However, he is obviously not expecting to be able to continue his service for a longer time. Suarez is obviously not planning to mind playing in dark mode, but that is definitely not ideal for Dortmund.

de Ligt has moved to Bayern Munich for a £68 million transfer. This would be perfect for Bayern Munich. It is a relief to see that they finally finalized the deal.

Both of these teams have come a long way so far with their transfers indeed. Because of these moves my expectations from these teams have gone up already. Both of them should be able to become very effective in terms of scoring. Especially Arsenal were having serious problems about this but the Gabriel Jesus transfer should be able to be the solution for it. However there is still a long time ahead for the end of the transfer window. Therefore we might still see new transfers from both teams.

Maybe because Ramsey's contribution is not worth the salary he receives every year. Last season he only played 5 times during the "Serie A and Champions League" season and that's the reason why Juventus started considering sending him out.

I wouldn't be surprised about that because there are a lot of players who just earn a salary in a team without getting many opportunities to play regardless of their health issues. Aaron Ramsey is one of them, so removing him from the team by terminating his contract will see Juventus reduce the burden on the player's salary.

I was surprised to hear this news because he was one of the best midfielders when he was at Arsenal but his career really took a turn after he joined Juventus. On the one hand, this contract termination is also a good choice for both parties because Juventus can indirectly cut their expenses and also for Aaron Ramsey be able to find another club to get more playing minutes.

Moreover, Juventus currently has stock of players for the midfield position who have performed quite well compared to Aaron Ramsey.
recently juventus also managed to bring in Gleison Bremer from torino. he was a pretty good signing for massimiliano Allegri because after De ligt left they immediately found a suitable replacement.

PSG don't have interest in Wijnaldum. The Parisians are looking for a loan deal for the player has he becomes a flop in the team and the new boss don't seems to include Gini in his project for next season games. Gini Wijnaldum was a key player when he was in Liverpool but his sudden move to PSG was thought to be a good deal at first, not when Mauricio Pochettino took over and got many keyplayers in the team which makes it difficult for him to manage and know who to start games and who to keep on the bench. Perhaps AS Roma are interested in the player but are yet to make a bid for him.

Dani Alves, a former fullback for Barcelona, will continue his playing career in Mexico by joining Pumas.
Alves returned to Barcelona last year and played 14 LaLiga games for Xavi's team after joining the club in January. Alves is currently returning to North America to join Pumas of Liga MX. On Thursday, Pumas teased the signing on their official Twitter account.

Well i didnt expect Dani Alves to stay for such a little time in Barcelona. I dont know why Barcelona even signed him again it was just a waste of money and now he moves to Mexico to play football and most of us never heard about this club before

Dani Alves only came to help out the club in times of trouble despite treating him like before leaving the first time, he came to the club to help as player and backroom staff for Xavi, and he did pretty well if you ask me in the games he played and was not convinced that the current Barcelona board are any different from the old one when it comes to players the feel aren't needed any more regardless of how influential they were during their prime for the club, which is often why I'm very happy that Messi left as a legend.

[el kaka22]

Alves played because he "knew" what should be done and he is friends with Xavi. Basically what Xavi wanted was a player who knew what needs to be done on the pitch. Players like Busquets, Pique, Alves, these may or may not be great players right now, you would need to make sure that they could physically be fit enough to play, but at the very least, they are players who know 100% very well what the manger wants from the team and that is important.

This is why I believe that they played. This year, the players have seen those things for half a season, and they could teach it to newer ones they got during the summer and that would be fine for all and no longer need Alves for it.

[bekti3]

Well i didnt expect Dani Alves to stay for such a little time in Barcelona. I dont know why Barcelona even signed him again it was just a waste of money and now he moves to Mexico to play football and most of us never heard about this club before

He left knowing he would not be able to be competitive at his age but came back just to help them out of their slump, and now they are slowly recovering so there is no reason for him to stay because he is aware that the age factor is not in his favor at Barcelona.
It wouldn't be too bad of a choice for him to leave and continue with a lesser known club because at least there he still gets tremendous admiration.

[JeromeTash]

Well i didnt expect Dani Alves to stay for such a little time in Barcelona. I dont know why Barcelona even signed him again it was just a waste of money and now he moves to Mexico to play football and most of us never heard about this club before

The contract was clear. It was a short term deal. It was one of the few cheap choices Barcelona had at that time, given that they were going through financial difficulties. Barcelona did not spend a single cent in signing him except maybe the wages, so how did Barcelona waste money?

[SatoPrincess]

Liverpool is not inclined to be very enthusiastic about bringing Wijnaldum back, I guess. So right now it looks like Roma has the highest chance of getting this player. Additionally, English Premier League club Wolves are interested in this player. But if Roma is serious about him, I don’t think it is going to be easy for the Wolves to get this player. And I said that Liverpool is not expecting to be interested in this player because of the way they are setting up the team. Therefore, I don’t think Wijnaldum is in line to be a suitable fit for Liverpool.


Thank You

I don't think Liverpool will want to bring Wijnaldum back to the team as they have moved on after his departure, it is true that Roma are interested in the player and wolves also are interested in the player although I don't think wolves will stand a chance against Roma for Wijnaldum because he will want to join a more influential club and Mourinho will also have an upper hand in convincing the player to join.

[MCobian]

PSG don't have interest in Wijnaldum. The Parisians are looking for a loan deal for the player has he becomes a flop in the team and the new boss don't seems to include Gini in his project for next season games. Gini Wijnaldum was a key player when he was in Liverpool but his sudden move to PSG was thought to be a good deal at first, not when Mauricio Pochettino took over and got many keyplayers in the team which makes it difficult for him to manage and know who to start games and who to keep on the bench. Perhaps AS Roma are interested in the player but are yet to make a bid for him.

After Luis Campos became the new PSG sporting director and Christophe Galtier took over as the new PSG coach. It seems that Georginio Wijnaldum,
who was disappointing in his first season with PSG, was not given a second chance to play for PSG again. So PSG offered Wijnaldum to several big
European clubs and so far only Roma are the most serious about getting Wijnaldum. Mourinho reportedly contacted Wijnaldum directly by telephone
to convince Wijnaldum to want to join Roma.

Roma plans to loan Wijnaldum with a purchase option of 20 million euros, and it looks like PSG have agreed to this. Perhaps the problem is that
Wijnaldum's salary of 9 million euros per season is very heavy for Roma to pay. Therefore PSG are willing to pay half of Wijnaldum's salary,
so that Wijnaldum can immediately move to Roma. If Roma manages to bring in Wijnaldum, the Roma squad will be much stronger and it is likely
that next season Roma can enter the top 4. Because previously Roma managed to bring in several quality players like Dybala and Nemanja Matic.

Inter Milan might seems to get hold on tightly on Skriniar after PSG open talks with the player. Although, Inter Milan might find it really difficult to let him go, not now that they have missed out of Gleison Bremer to Juventus. Nevertheless, The Parisians are offering €50m for Skriniar but Inter Milan probably wants more compared to what the Parisians can offer. However, the market window is currently full with competition and only the serious and fastest clubs sign players.

I am quite sure that Inter Milan is planning to ask for a lot more money for this player. As you know, Milan Škriniaris a player who gives a substantial amount of defensive stability to the team. And I also agree that it will be tough for Inter Milan to let this player depart. He is a really talented center-back player.

I thought PSG had some excellent center-backs on the team. But to be quite honest they are getting quite old. I don't believe Ramos is also capable of performing at his peak after this year. So I think they are trying to take precautions. It is likely that this precaution will cost them a lot more than 50 million dollars, however.

It is a wise move for PSG getting a young and talented centre back because depending so much on their aged centre backs might be detrimental in the end and it is good to have other good options in case of injuries or under performance by these aged centre backs. Skriniar is a good player who still has some glory years under his sleeves and will be fantastic for PSG in that position.

I also learnt he was taking a paycut while playing for Barcelona. Dani had no intentions to sign for Barcelona, it was Xavi that persuaded him to come help groom the club again and he came as a legend to give his help and now Barcelona is able to sign new good players, he can leave and Barcelona and Barcelona fans are suppose to be grateful to him for agreeing to serve Barcelona at that critical time. Barcelona didn't actually waste any money on him.

I think Ronaldo is in a somewhat lesser period of his career at the moment. Then you have a very good coach with Ten Hag, who knows exactly what added value you can expect from Ronaldo. I assume that Ronaldo will make an important contribution to Man United again and that he will flourish again. He can really rise to great heights with United, and United have even more reinforcements in mind. Especially the players with whom Ten Hag has worked together at Ajax.

Every time the word "strengthening" is heard, but in the end what comes out? MU find themselves in fifth, sixth position in the standings and the reinforcements don't work, or the team just doesn't want to play. When Ronaldo came in, everyone thought that Manchester United would now be at least in the top 4, top 3, the result we see is that Ronaldo played well, but the result is not better.

Because to make a team strong and win lots of trophies it's not enough just to have a lot of star players. Although the previous season Man United
spent a large budget to bring in several star players, including one of them Ronaldo, it turned out that Man United's performance was
unexpectedly disappointing. Even Man United failed to enter the top 4, it was because Man United did not  have a competent coach. Therefore,
it is very appropriate what Man United did by bringing in Erik ten Hag, because Ten Hag proved to be able to make Ajax perform very well,
although almost every year Ajax always sells its star players, but Ten Hag is able to make Ajax appear consistent.

So Erik ten Hag is expected to get Man United back to their best form, so far from the few friendly matches that Man United has played,
Man United's performance has begun to show positive progress. So I believe Erik ten Hag can get Man United back in the top 4 next season.
I really believe Erik ten Hag is able to get Man United back into the top 4 even without Ronaldo. So if Ronaldo really wants to go, I think just
let Ronaldo go. After all, there's no point in keeping players who don't want to stay anymore.

I don't know I just don't believe anyone can bring MU back to the top positions anymore, although top 4 sounds realistic. In that case, they need to do a complete reorganisation, selling off star players and recruiting new ones, and then build the team from there. There is a lot of money spent on star players, just crazy numbers, obviously some of them play for money and not for trophies
