⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Razmirraz]

There is nothing wrong with clubs rejecting Ronaldo because sometimes the club also does not want to have a heavier burden in terms of salary and contract fees for Ronaldo because star players like Ronaldo still have a high market value even though he is not young anymore. So it is a very wise and correct option if Ronaldo stays at Manchester United until his contract expires without having to think about moving to another club.

The age factor, high salary and expensive contract value made other clubs discouraged from signing Ronaldo. I think if Ronaldo status is free transfer, there are many clubs who want to sign Ronaldo because they don't have to spend a lot of money to get the services of the Portuguese star.
Now Ronaldo is starting to not get the trust of Ten Hag, Ronaldo is seen sitting on the bench more often than being a starter. Ronaldo must again show his quality to the Coach in order to play Regularly, he needs to maintain his performance before helping his country in the world cup.

I still feel that he's in on Ten Hag's plans. But in this case there are some things that can't be avoided such as at this time his performance is still a bit wavering due to his desire to move, on the other hand as you said when the coach has decided he is still a player who must accept all forms of decisions and until now he is still play even from the bench and as a substitute.

And why is that a bad thing? It only hurts Ronaldo's own ego, but it's not a bad option for a coach when he can use some good links, changing players right during the game. Ronaldo should understand that his time is gradually coming to an end, so don't be perplexed and resentful, it would have happened sooner or later (besides, I don't think his time has come to an end).

Actually, regardless of hurting or not in his ego, Ronaldo still can't do much, all he has to do is accept this moment. The transfer closure this time will end in a few days and until now no one really wants to take him away and all he has to do is accept and play as usual.
As for the team problem I think when he gets into good form again and plays without any restraints then I think it will be different and maybe he can get something good back for his ambitions.

Fabrizio Romano is saying that the deal for Antony is done - the fee is 100 million euros.
I still can't understand why United overpaid so much, I don't feel he's such a good player to command one of the highest transfer fees ever paid.

Fantastic business from Ajax though, they brought him in 2 years ago for 15 million euros.

Breaking news

If you follow fabrizio Romano on YouTube or in other social media handles, you will hear a great news that he announced few minutes ago.

The news is Anthony is finally a Manchester United player. He has agreed a deal of 100 million euros. Ths is a good news for Manchester United, it can also be a sad news for Cristiano Ronaldo and some other of Manchester united players because there will be a great shift in place of people playing. We know that Antonio plays with high energy and he likes pressing football and that is what Eric Ten Hag likes.

If Anthony is the perfect signing that will strengthen the club attacking-wise it's a welcome development irrespective of whether his arrival will lead to the departure of some old players, what matter most is for Erik Ten Hag to deploy his tactics and formations to win matches for Man Utd, I read so much hype about Anthony in Ajax, I hope he live up to expectations because of the his huge sign-on fee, which I believe is overpriced even more expensive than Halaand who is more experience as well as a very good striker, I think Man Utd is synonymous with overpricing new players which isn't fair, they could have bought Aleksandar Mitrovic with a less fee.

They should have paid lesser honestly but Sao Paulo share of the fee will be sent across, When I say Sao Paulo I meant the club Antony represented before Ajax bought him for a small fee.
Edwin Van Daser also help Man United in getting the deal sealed. This window Manchester United has really spent big on both Lisandro Martinez and  Antony from Ajax.
If you are a good watcher of football and also player @gabbie2010 you don't need anymore article's telling you Antony is hyped that guy is just good technically. He is a must watch Brazilian especially for the world Cup. There are some name's over priced in England and non has said any about it, as I will leave that argument for another day. Fantastic Deal, Ten Hag reunites with his Son.

Man United agree €95m deal for Ajax winger

I think signing Antony for 95 million is a waste of money. It is a huge amount. It's not even that Antony is an important player for Ajax or that he's scoring goals regularly. In the 2021–22 season, Ajax managed to score just 8 goals in 23 appearances in the Eredivisie League. I'm not saying that Antony is a bad player. He is a player with considerable potential, and if Manchester United were able to sign Antony for £40m I would say it would be a good deal.

The Ten Hag are probably not interested in keeping Ronaldo in their squad. Antony's inclusion in the squad will further reduce Ronaldo's chances of being in the starting XI. We don't understand why Ten Hag keeps a talented player like Ronaldo on the bench.

He is a potential young player, regardless of the price given, it is clear that Ten Hag knows the capacity of this player.
He was one of Ten Hag's trusted players when he coached at Ajax. On the other hand, he played an important role in Ajax's performance last season.
On the other hand, it seems that Ten Hag feels that instead of looking for chemistry with other players, it is only his foster children who have been caught like Martinez and Antony who were brought to MU.

Fenerbahce are close to signing maxi gomez from Valencia. Valencia will send maxi gomez to Fenerbahce after the transfer of edinson cavani. I think this transfer will be announced by Fenerbahce in a short time. There is news on social media that everything is up to the signature.

Yea is not worth the money but it doesn't mean he is a bad player, why Manchester United are bringing him in is because the coach Erik Ten Hag request for his transfer, he is a player that already knows what the coach wants from his attackers, with him in the dressing room, training ground the other attackers like Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial, Anthony Elenga, Jordan Sancho can learn fast what the coach wants because he ( Anthony) have work for the coach for up to three seasons now so he can be a reference point to his attacking teammates.

I really don't think he's worth nearly as half much of that fee, and It might be another decision Man Utd will leave to regret, what I quite don't understand yet is that did Ajax really plan to keep after those £75million bid ? Or did they plan to play along to the long game with Man Utd desperation, knowing fully well that they can still expect one last huge bid yet again from them ?

Ajax claim they don't have enough time to replace Anthony, but with such a cheque, I guess we'll find out how many squad from the Eredivisie they can afford now right ?

Manchester United will carry out a medical on Ajax forward Antony and that will take place on Monday after the Red Devils completed an Eredivisie record deal after agreeing to pay €100m (£85m) for Antony on Saturday. The specifics were worked on by both parties for the rest of the weekend.

United have made three previous offers for Antony, the last of which was €90m (£76.7m), but Ajax have rejected United's submission as they want to set a club record.

100 M Euros? Are you serious? Is Anthony really that valuable? I agree that he is a good player, but 100 M Euros? I don't think he will be that valuable. It doesn't make sense for Manchester United to pay that much. They could have bought some good players with that money instead of Anthony.

Indeed it is a price that we think is too fantastic to buy Antony. But the fact is that Manchester United dared to spend that much to bring him to Old Trafford. They must have had another view when they agreed on the price that Ajax wanted. I will not regret Manchester United what they have spent, because a lot of players who dropped at Manchester United. We'll see if he's worth it or not for that price.

[naira]

The arrival of Antony became a hot topic on Twitter and well he would soon make Man United's front line quite cruel. An overhaul in the last session of the transfer season with a surprising nominal. Now Manchester United has many options. Sancho and Rashford in various places. How surprised it was when it was predicted that he would not succeed in bringing Antony in because Ajax repeatedly refused him, but money spoke everything. Moreover, what will be done by Erik Ten Hag after the formation of Manchester United is quite ideal to secure the position.

Ten Hag understands Antony game very well and continues to force management to recruit Antony in the transfer market this summer, the unclear future of Ronaldo at Manchester United is forcing Manchester United to make panic purchases at this time, I agree with you that Antony is a good player but i think the urgency of the need for a striker by manchester united forced them to make a panic buy so they agreed to the price fixed by ajax for antony, all deals are now over and according to Fabrizio Romano, antony will be in manchester next week for complete all the requirements to become a manchester united player .

Now that Manchester United and ajax have decided to sign Antony, it is no longer news because it has been widely reported on Twitter. He has quality, yes, but they overpaid for him. Someone transitioning from such a league to the Premier league might end up like Ziyech. I believe that United is simply desperate and will spend anything to acquire him.

Go check players like Grealish are they worth the big money move and decision I don't know why when it's not English the media criticize them for such big fee's. Wesley Fofana is another one, Maguire of Manchester United rather they protect this players at all cost because they own the Media. Last game against Southampton, Rashford was more like a ghost no where to be found he is only found against big clubs like Liverpool and Chelsea, since the start of the season how many successfully dribbles and chances created has he had ?
Let the young player be, Antony is not over hyped and priced for me, he just have to come and prove a lotta people in the premier league..

[Masplanc]

That would better for him to play for MU rather than think about move to the another club. MU is still performing so good. I think that there will be very hard match against some big clubs. The performance of MU is not yet consistent. Sometime it was giving good performance but in another time it was giving bad performance as well. Ronaldo must not always think to move from MU to the new club. So many clubs have been rejecting him as well.

There is nothing wrong with clubs rejecting Ronaldo because sometimes the club also does not want to have a heavier burden in terms of salary and contract fees for Ronaldo because star players like Ronaldo still have a high market value even though he is not young anymore. So it is a very wise and correct option if Ronaldo stays at Manchester United until his contract expires without having to think about moving to another club.

The reason why most club reject christiano Ronaldo I think they can not afford the money to sign him, and most clubs are looking for younger players but christiano Ronaldo age is telling on him and he is close to his retirement,  not every club would like to sign advance players which age can influence performance.

It wasn't a panic buy in my opinion, because Ten Hag knew that Manchester United were in need of more good players like Antony so there was no need to make an offer to an amount lower than the price set by Ajax. So it's more about necessity and not about the panic that Manchester United caused when they accepted the price set by Ajax for Antony.

Abundant profits were obtained by Ajax Amsterdam in the transfer of Anthony. They took advantage of Manchester United's strong desire to sign the 22-year-old Brazilian.
I admit that Anthony was a talented player who was in the Ajax squad with good statistics last season. While with Ajax, Anthony's minutes per goal reached 180 and his passes were 72/78% accurate.

Characteristics of Manchester United it has always been famous for attacks through the wings such as Giggs, Beckham, Park Ji Sung to Ronaldo. Whether that's one of the reasons Manchester United were willing to pay €95m plus €5m in add-ons for Anthony, I don't know. Because through Fabrizio Romano's Twitter I have read on several occasions that Anthony is eager to become a Manchester United player who was coached by his former coach at Ajax, Erik ten Hag.
