⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[gabbie2010]

 Arsenal Left back Tavares had secured a loan move to Marseille for the new season, Its obvious he will not have a regular playing time with the arrival and signing of Zinchenko from Man City who is a midfielder but could also play as a left back thus deputize Tierney who plays that role in case if he is injured, Tavares is 21 years and very young he will gain more experience in French Ligue-1 he was expected to sign for Atalanta on a permanent deal but couldn't seal through thus opted for the loan deal.

Sebastian Haller's state of health deteriorated. According to the doctors' new statement, his tumor was malignant. Sebastian Haller will undergo chemotherapy treatment. He will be out of the field for a few months. He had just transferred to Borussia Dortmund, but he is now going through an unfortunate period. I hope he recovers soon and returns to the field.

That was expected since the announcement of the disease.. He will not be available in the fields for a couple of months, I assume from 3 to 6 months until he finishes the treatment and be assured that he is cured and no longer need additional chemotherapy or another surgery then we should add the time to recover from the weakness and resume training.. I hope he will be fine first and will recover fast from that and to resume games as fast as possible (2023 in best cases tho).

sad news mate, even though Haller is a very good striker, almost like Halland, but indeed something like this is unpredictable,
and there are rumors that Dortmund will also try to sign Ronaldo, I got info from social media, very interesting if indeed Ronaldo left Manchester United

Endless rumors about the transfer of Ronaldo are already tiring, journalists need screaming headlines and they will constantly invent something new. Ronaldo getting old, the club is no longer chasing him, let him stay in Manchester United and finish his career, this is a good club, he need to stop rushing about in search of something better, and create this best together with the team. It seems that the chances of Haller's recovery are high, as the sporting director of the Dortmund team Sebastian Kehl said, but the situation is certainly unpleasant, this is at least the absence of a player for several months, with the most positive forecasts.

[SatoPrincess]

Depay himself admitted that he did not want to leave Barcelona. maybe he still wants to play for Xavi's plans.
but it looks like Barcelona offered the player to Juventus. and I think Juve is a good place for Depay.
Barcelona still has serious problems at the club, although improvements are being made. I'm afraid it will take quite a while. Depay may have to find a good club for his future.

Currently Juve are eyeing a striker after losing Morata and it looks like Memphis Depay is one of the most suitable players to replace Morata, currently Juve's negotiations with Barcelona are ongoing so we will have to wait whether negotiations have reached an agreement between the two parties, although now many rumors are circulating that Memphis Depay doesn't want to leave Barcaleno but I think it's very likely that Depay will leave Barcelona.

Depay to Juventus won't be bad at all but according to reports and rumours saying he wants to remain with Barcelona, it seems to me that Memphis Depay is enjoying his stay at Barcelona and therefore he is willing to fight for the starting spot in the first team so it is unlikely that he will be leaving Barcelona this summer except probably a big money transfer could lure him to want to change his mind.

My take on Memphis is that, he doesn't suit Barcelona any bit, he was lucky cause of his Ronald Koeman who made the switch possible, he should move to Juventus.

Depay has been already linked with Juventus for 3 years now and... he will never be here in Italy.

Juventus really have only 1 target player for that position and it is Zaniolo, they already have the deal with the player they now need to find the deal with As Roma.

Losing Haaland was a blow for dortmund but now they have experienced a deeper disappointment after haller had to be absent due to his illness, losing Haller off course was beyond dortmund expectations but however dortmund now have to find another capable striker, one option maybe ronaldo can be a good alternative because Ronaldo also wants to move from manchester United, so far Ronaldo has asked manchester united to terminate his contract but manchester seems reluctant to lose ronaldo, but if later manchester united wants to release ronaldo then dortmund chance to get him is large because Ronaldo has not got or has a next club target after a number of other big European clubs openly refused to sign Ronaldo.

With the presence of Zaniolo in the Juventus squad, maybe Depay indirectly will not be ogled, I think.
At the moment there are some rumors about Zaniolo and Juventus having reached an agreement even if only personally but this is clearly a very good prospect because it is possible that a loan deal with Roma regarding Zaniolo could be realized very well in the near future.

I have absolutely zero faith in Dortmund to get Ronaldo. Don't get me wrong, not that it wouldn't be a perfect fit because if they just sold a great big striker and got another one in return that would be great for them, even if for just 2-3 years until Moukoko gets of an age where he would be a perfect fit, dude is just 17 right now, and by the time they get Ronaldo and play him for 2-3 more years, he would be 19-20 by that time and would be getting more and more minutes every single year, this kid has been playing at a high level since he was 15, dude is the real deal. Between him and Bellingham, they will either have a great core, or they will have another two they can flip for a lot of money. But Ronaldo won't come, Dortmund can't afford him, not even jersey sales would allow for such a thing to happen for sure.

Between selling 25% of their tv rights for the next 25 years, and selling their merchandise company BLM's half, and getting a spotify stadium naming rights, they made close to a billion dollars if you include the loan they got.

Definitely this means that they are dead out of water if they do not find a way to make extra money, but between 600 million loan over 10 years, a tv rights deal that only see them parting with 25% of it, and sponsorship, they are actually doing fine. This allowed them to spend this much, and they also did it all at once because they needed new players and since the past few years have been hard, they couldn't get the players they wanted.

[SatoPrincess]

Joan Laporta as President of Barcelona has confirmed that Barcelona's player salary bill has increased by more than 40%. This means that
there must be some Barcelona players who are sold to be able to ease the burden of wages that must be paid by Barcelona. One of them is
by selling Memphis Depay this year, but Depay doesn't seem to want to leave Barcelona. It was reported by Diario Sport that Depay had told
his Barcelona teammates he would stay at Barcelona, despite the arrival of Lewandowski. This of course in addition to harming Barcelona,
​​Depay will also spend a lot of time on the bench. Depay should be wise, Depay should move to another club that can offer more playing time.
Even though it was reported that Juventus were interested in signing Depay, after Juventus lost Dybala and Morata,  it was reported that Juventus
were looking for a striker. And it looks like Depay is in the striker criteria that Juventus wants, I think it would be better if Depay moved to Juventus.

If this news is actually true then it is a good development because owing player's salaries is the least I expect from a prestigious club like Barcelona that has been known for it's glory years and lasted Domination in Europe and in the world of football. If it means they have to cut down the squad number by selling out unwanted and surplus players then they should but Depay going to Juventus is same thing as staying .

Yeah, definitely. Zaniolo has been impressive over the past few seasons, and adding him alongside Dusan Vlahovic, and Federico Chiesa, Juve could have a great front-three.

I have absolutely zero faith in Dortmund to get Ronaldo. Don't get me wrong, not that it wouldn't be a perfect fit because if they just sold a great big striker and got another one in return that would be great for them,~

I also think Ronaldo has no chance to join Dortmund since they already have some center-forwards. They also have signed Haller although he is injured right now. But Dortmund has Adayemi, Malen, and Moukoko, they are more than enough as the substitution for Haller if He is injured. They only waste money if they sign Ronaldo, Dortmund is not urgent to sign a new striker, especially signing a striker with a big salary. Ronaldo's salary probably becomes the problem for Dortmund.

[D-law]

Erik ten Hag is still eager to keep Anthony Martial in the team even though there is a high interest by Juventus these days. I don't think that Erik ten Hag is planning to give him too many chances in the starting eleven but if he leaves they aren't going to have any substitute player left for Ronaldo in the team. Maybe he is thinking of benefiting from him as a winger too but I don't know. Juventus might go for Werner and Morata after hearing about this.

They should get Timo Werner they can not out hopes on Martial.
Is Ronaldo really back at Manchester United as the news days ?
Liverpool won Manchester City today. Kloops has now won it all.

[SatoPrincess]

I think Depay is a little surplus in the Barcelona squad as their are other options is the same position. Lewandowski can play as centre forward same as Aubameyang, so he will only be playing from the bench that's if he eventually plays. The best option for him now is a move away and it that happens it will be a win win for both parties as Barcelona will be freed of his wage load. Juventus will be a good destination for him though but I hear Juventus are setting attention on Firminho to boost their attack.

He should at least move to a club that plays Champions League football.
Settling for Barcelona is a no as he won't get the attention he deserves
How far with another team in the Spanish League. Barcelona has some good players in the attacking options.

But do you think it's worth it, I don't see Barcelona winning the La Liga title neither are they winning the champions league this season and by the time the season ends then they'll realized they have made bad investment with the money they raised. It was no secret that Barcelona was broke and then unwise to spend as they have with the money they raised. They are the club with the highest spending so far I'm the transfer window and their squad aren't that strong.

Well lets just give them few months into the season and they'll start to owe their players as they're currently doing as I see no reason why you'll be owing a players his wages and still be signing players with high fees and asking players you owe to take a pay cut.

Your thinking is quite reasonable, very far from the fact that Ronaldo will move to Dortmund. Apart from Dortmund already having quite a number of
strikers in their squad, signing Ronaldo is like going against their philosophy which prioritizes bringing in young players to develop. While buying Ronaldo is
not a good investment for Dortmund, after all, winning trophies is not Dortmund's top priority. So Dortmund does not need a player like Ronaldo,
let alone Ronaldo's salary is very high, this is something that will burden Dortmund. Instead of signing Ronaldo, Dortmund will look for young players
they can develop and resell at a high price. It is reported that Dortmund are looking for a replacement for Haller, which is certain that Ronaldo is not
the target player for Dortmund. After all, Ronaldo has started training with Man United, which means that it is likely that Ronaldo will stay at Man United.

It is not a must to join a club qualified for UCL. The priority is joining a club where he can play as the main striker. I think it is better to join a club that plays in Europa league but he can play as the main player there. But I don't know how many clubs that already make an offer for him right now. Let's hope there are many clubs that want to hire him, so Depay has some options to move. Sure, he must think to leave Barcelona because he has no longer future there, he can't compete for the striker position with Lewandowski and Aubameyang.

[Velvet78]

The number of contenders to sign Werner is rising now. After Leipzig and Juventus, Newcastle are also willing to sign him now. However they want to make a loan move for him which Chelsea would still find appropriate for themselves. On the other hand I wonder what Werner is thinking about all of these teams. Newcastle seem like the weakest team among them of course so they are disadvantageous in terms of that. But they can be the team he can play in the starting eleven the most at the same time.

After seeing the money they injected into the team and the more than €150m they have already spent on new players, it is clear that De jong does not want to accept a pay cut or leave the team. It is disrespectful to not honor the agreements of the old players; you can't just wake up and ask a player to accept a pay cut so that you can sign new players. As long as he is covered by a contract, you cannot force him to quit or accept a pay cut, and this has never happened anywhere else.

Real Madrid, Bayern, Manchester City, and Liverpool are examples of serious teams that know the value of money and don't sign more than three players per season. Barcelona is continuing the same strategy that caused the team's financial collapse. You will always be forced into the transfer window each season if you have more than three or four players who are over 30s. They have now engaged in this activity for three seasons now.
