⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[ILuckyGuyI]

Rafael Leao has started this season very superbly. He has 4 goals and 7 assists in 12 games in total so far. Milan are preparing a new contract to extend with him and they are targeting to finish the agreement before the World Cup begins. I think that Leao must be happy with being a part of Milan now. But I wonder if he would like to join a team that are more successful in the Champions League in the recent years.

Chelsea have been the most interested team to sign him for a long time. They are monitoring this process from a distance now. If Milan don't manage to convince Leao for a new contract then they might be in trouble. Chelsea might even try their luck in January transfer window. Depending on the conditions of these teams at that time, Leao might make his decision to leave or stay. But I feel like he wouldn't leave Milan in the middle of the season. He would be more likely to do so in the summer in that case.

I don't think this player would fit in Bayern's squad, he is more suited to the English style of play and Bayern are currently tossing from side to side due to problems with the lack of a good striker. And besides as you said it will be difficult to convince him to move and most likely money won't influence the deal, Kane is a man of principle

Bayern Munich should need experienced strikers so when they play they will use these players to contribute in order to get a large number of goals as was the case in the past, if they add inexperienced strikers it will keep Bayern Munich hard to win. Hopefully in the transfer market at the beginning of the year Bayern Munich will get very good players and are ready to be attacking players so that Bayern Munich can get another win.

Bayern can get so many options other than harry kane. harry kane is still wanna playing for totenham. Im not sure if he wants move to the another league as he was still playing at the top league. It seems like that bayern is trying so hard to get a good replacement for lewandowski.
bayern has not yet got the same typical striker like him from another team.

Barcelona president has stated that in the coming transfer window they will be aiming to recruit more free players to the team  to strengthen the squad and spend less. The possibility of Tielemans going to Arsenal seems unlikely now after the gunners opted out of the deal in August. I don't think Barcelona will be open to signing these players because because of the amount to be spent on them. Tielemans will even prefer a move to an English club than moving to spain.

I have little idea how Barcelona will pay the players they already have in their squad, given the fact that Barcelona is almost guaranteed to leave the Champions League after the group stage. As for the new "free" players, this is naivete - firstly, cool players want a signing bonus, so they are not free at all, and secondly, who wants to go to Barcelona where salaries are always being cut and the club is in crisis in general?

[cygan]

after Christopher Nkunku and Josko Gvardiol (both rb leipzig), fc chelsea is also said to be interested in Konrad Laimer. the austrian midfielder KL could leave rb leipzig next summer on a free transfer.
interestingly, leipzig's sacked squad planner Christopher Vivell, who recently negotiated with chelsea for the position of chief scout, could provide additional persuasion here...

Yeah it is a good question and remains a doubt to many. Who knows maybe they want to be part of a big club with history. Some have their dreams of playing for Barca like Raphinha. So there are players who still want to play for that club despite their poor financial condition but honestly they should put other interested clubs as prior to Barca as Barca achieving things in future remains a doubt.

It makes sense, Even with their current condition it still seems very naive for the higher-ups to admit that they are in another dying phase after last season.
Are they not aware at this time that their players need payment due to their mounting arrears.
Actually bringing in players actually makes it more difficult for them in the end.

The source underlines that Harry Kane is focused on his game at Tottenham now.

As you know, Bayern Munich have been in need of a solid striker since they sold Lewandowski to Barcelona. Harry Kane has been in the center of speculations to sign for Bayern Munich. However it doesn't seem like Kane is interested in leaving the team for them now. But I think that his decision might still change depending on how much successful they will be in this season. Tottenham are doing very good in the Premier League and they have improved their performance in the Champions League as well. If they keep this up until the end of the season then they would be in a strong position to convince Kane to stay.

https://www.skysports.com/football/live-blog/11095/12476234/transfer-centre-live?postid=4637175#liveblog-body:~:text=16%3A36-,Kane%20on%20Bayern%20interest%3A%20I%27m%20only%20focused%20on%20Tottenham,-Harry%20Kane%20insists

I can't really tell how serious Bayern Munich are concerning this deal, for now they are just speculations which seem unlikely to me. Harry Kane has always been a die-hard Tottenham player it will take a mind blowing offer to convince him to switch sides and join Bayern Munich. Bayern Munich are in need of a striker but I think Tottenham also need his services and might not be open to letting him go this January.

I don't think this player would fit in Bayern's squad, he is more suited to the English style of play and Bayern are currently tossing from side to side due to problems with the lack of a good striker. And besides as you said it will be difficult to convince him to move and most likely money won't influence the deal, Kane is a man of principle

A typical lazy striker like kane will not suitable on bayern. This striker is too lazy to help his teammates to get the ball. As a pure striker and that's he was doing but it's too lazy for him. I didn't like his play style. Just let him to play in totenham even longer.
Totenham was also rarely getting trophy. Buying him may become a big mistake from bayern. Please bayern don't do it

Hmmm, well he may be lazy, but scoring a goal is a team effort, not solely a matter for the striker. For his partners to get the ball first, Kane has to get the ball himself and try to do it. Yes, he doesn't always get those attempts, but that's fine. There's no striker who passes the whole defence 100% of the time

[bitgolden]

I think that if Tottenham isnt in a good position in the premier league and the champions league that he might leave for sure for Bayern Munich. If the transfer dosent happen in the winter transfer window it will happen for sure in the summer window. Kane would be a great addition to the Bayern Munich team and would win a couple of titles finally.

Bayern munich will try hard to get harry kane in the transfer window next year, no doubt because his slick performance with tottenham makes bayern munich is expected to make a fantastic offer to get kane. Kane has just recorded a sweet streak where his duet with Son has so far managed to score 50 goals in all competitions and that is a very good achievement. with a flashy performance and Tottenham's performance is also very good so far I think harry kane is still very comfortable with tottenham and I hope he can stay at Tottenham for the next season.

I am not sure if Bayern would ever offer a fantastic amount of money for any player. They are known to be cheap and still get players they want, so there is really no reason for them to pay a huge amount of money to get anyone. But if Kane wants to leave, and if Bayern is willing to offer "something", then he could definitely transfer here.

However, Bayern needs to figure out a way to be good in the league as well, they are great at UCL so they should be good in the league. Get to like quarter finals of UCL at least and get the title is the usual way and that should be fine for them, after that they can consider about next year, but they need the league title first.

Bayern is one of the big teams in Europe with good financial strength and also a good reputation, so it shouldn't be too difficult for Bayern to find
a replacement for Lewandowski. But for now there are many rumors linking Kane to Bayern, although I believe Bayern actually have other options
if it fails to get Kane. Because it must be admitted that it is not easy to get Harry Kane, which previously the Man City also failed to get Harry Kane.
Especially with Tottenham's performance getting better after Conte's arrival, I'm also not sure if Harry Kane still wants to leave Tottenham or not.
But if it turns out that Bayern can get Kane, it would be a very good buy in my opinion, because Bayern do need a striker who is experienced and
has the ability to score goals. And Harry Kane has it all, but maybe the problem is whether Kane can adapt to playing in the Bundesliga. Because it is
very rare for me to find English players who can be successful if they play outside the Premier League.

Why do you think he is a lazy striker?
You know that he is a pure CF, he should spend more time in the opponent's area. Getting the balls is not his main duty, his duty is to score as many as possible. As long as Kane can score many goals, nothing wrong with his behavior on the field. Regarding the transfer issue of Kane to Bayern, I think it is a good idea. Bayern needs a pure CF now, they miss a machine goal. Kane is a pure CF and looks good to play with Bayern Munich. Why do you doubt it, dude?

Not any excited playing for Barcelona if not qualify at Champion League, depending with financial right now have been better and not bad issues with salary player cut off and still not paying bonuses for Frankie De Jong. I think issues about financial crisis faced by  Barcelona have ended and they are on the freedom financial era although have possibility later face again with rumor back salary player cut off almost 50% and difficult paying add on bonuses sign in for several player.

Have an option only for Barcelona recruitment new player on next window transfer open if player not playing at champion league, free transfer and player not played at champion league this season because naivete have to leave their previous team playing at champion league and joining with Barcelona have chance playing on Europe League.

How come Kane is a lazy striker?

He is one of the best complete centre-forwards I've seen in the recent years. This is the reason why Bayern Munich have been targeting him first to fill Lewandowski's place in the team. Because Lewandowski was also that kind of a striker and they don't want to change their tactics by signing a completely different striker. Kane has made so many assists so far beside scoring so many goals. I remember very classy assists of him. He isn't a striker who just waits in the attacking line for the ball to come to him and tries to finish it up with a goal by as less touch as possible.

Although Bayern Munich is a big team, doesn't mean they can sign any striker they want. If they have the ability to sign any player, Haaland should be a part of Bayern Munich squad right now. But in reality, Haaland prefers to move to Man City. It can be the same in the current issue that they are trying to sign Kane. Bayern Munich may fail to sign Kane because Kane is the main player in Tottenham, Antonio Conte (coach) and the club management must try their best to keep Kane. Another problem, if there are other top clubs that also want to sign Kane. Top clubs like Real Madrid, Chelsea, Man United, or others may have the intention to sign Kane. It is because of not many options for top CF right now.

If only money were enough to decide Kane's fate, he would already be at Bayern, as he wants to pay an astronomical sum of 100 million euros, and yet they are worried that they won't be able to sign the dreamed player yet in 2023.
But Bayern are really missing a number 9 to replace Robert Lewandowski's departure to Barcelona... they even signed 17-year-old Mathys Tel, but the youngster needs time to adapt and find his space amidst a team that is already saturated with good players.

[kro55]

What I read in the news is not the main problem but there is political pressure and also some unfulfilled promises to Mbappe so it might feel uncomfortable for Mbappe to continue to be at PSG if the situation is still like this, and also an option for Mbappe. Real Madrid has been rejected outright, it's not PSG's desire but only Liverpool who are the leading club for Mbappe if it's true that he will be sold in July, but what's surprising is that Mbappe's price tag by PSG is 400 million euros whether this will be able to Liverpoo and of course with a large salary for a purchase of that size, I'm not sure Liverpool will be able to make this offer too big even though Liverpool are a big team.

It will be a dilemma of course for Mbappe but I think he will make the right decision for himself with a more comfortable club.

400 million euros is such a huge amount no club will be willing to spend on one player, I don't know what the problem is, after accepting a huge deal to remain at the club he wants to leave with just a month after the deal. If the reason you say is the case then it doesn't make sense to make promises and fail to fulfil this promises. I will really love to see him make a move to Real Madrid in January.

First of all, I think it will probably be very difficult for him to settle into any other team. He has had a taste of power at PSG. In PSG he is obviously above the players. It is not going to be easy for him to let go of this kind of power.

And I think he is the only player in history who is entitled to complain because of having Neymar and Lionel Messi in the team. He should understand that PSG has given him too much power and authority which he shouldn't have.

Also, I do not believe that whichever team he moves to is planning to pay him such a huge salary when he joins them. And obviously, he is not going to be able to settle in Real Madrid. In my opinion, he will not have much trouble playing for Liverpool since the team actually needs strikers to make up the main squad, and I don't think there will be too much competition for him to get a place in the main squad.

[hashrateproducts]

All the saga surrounding the Frenchman in the club backing up his desire to leave the club have been the major trend of PSG recently. Kylian Mbappe have a bright future ahead of him in his football career with coming fully into limelight. He's the only player that have won what Leo Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are still craving to add to their achive of trophies which is the World Cup. You see why he's much confident in PSG and both the fans and the president like him more. I blame the president for all the trauma going on in the team presu because I could remember fully well that last season, when the Los Blancos were so close to signing Mbappe, the Parisians president Nasser al-Khelaifi offered him one of the biggest contract in football history which sealed back Mbappe to the team and made him the top earned in Ligue 1 generally.

This club is still in the crisis. The debt has not yet paid and it's still owe salary from some of its players. barcelona has no choice other than using the free transfer as a way to get a new player. Selling more shares means barcelona will not be owned by its supporters again.
It's better barcelona to be sold for billionaires that have bunch of money.

[LUCKMCFLY]

The only advantage of Bayern Munich signing Ronaldo is that they will generate more money from the sale of jerseys. Signing Ronaldo will also require lots of money for Bayern Munich.

I don't think Bayern Munich need that, Bayern prefer to strengthen the line-up, they don't look like they are short on funds. Bayern need players who can make the difference and cover the gap left by Lewandowski, and Cristiano Ronaldo is still less effective for Bayern's needs.
I'm pretty sure of the signing of Sadio Mane but to maximize their desire, Bayern need more than what they have at the moment to partner Sadio Mane up front.
Bayern's achievements in the Bundesliga further reinforce the notion that they need new players up front

I am not entirely sure if all will be ok if they just say no to money. I mean think about it, Ronaldo has a big follower base all around the world, which would be a huge amount of money for them, sure he sold a lot in United as well but that was a special case, we should look at Juventus to see something a bit more realistic.

Bayern could have some money, but saying no to even more money while having a good player would be idiotic. I feel like they would say no, not because of any money deal, but because they need someone that could play with them a long time and that’s a bit more realistic approach for sure, someone who is maybe at max 28 years old, probably younger would be better.

Well I have seen that in Europe as such they do not value a player who has given so much to football and I think that is a bad thing, because then football is a very ungrateful profession, what is the use of being a superstar? I'm sure that in South America they would take CR7 from anyone's hands so that he could be in their teams, will it be that when Messi also starts asking for another team they will also rally him from here to there and from there to here? It's a sad thing and that speaks very badly of the teams, I know that obviously there are many young players who can run faster, but I think it is not the right treatment for those legends.

Bayern is one of the big teams in Europe with good financial strength and also a good reputation, so it shouldn't be too difficult for Bayern to find

But Bayern are really missing a number 9 to replace Robert Lewandowski's departure to Barcelona... they even signed 17-year-old Mathys Tel, but the youngster needs time to adapt and find his space amidst a team that is already saturated with good players.

For me, the truth is that it is very difficult to replace a player like Lewa, it is not impossible, but getting one with his quality is quite difficult, I think I could think of Kane, or Mbappé, who has said so much that he can leave in January because possibly he would leave and that CR7 would enter, then possibly Mbappé would not resist it because apparently the Sheik is in talks with the representative of CR7, there is a lot of speculation about it, obviously not only Mbappé would leave here, Neymar would also leave, since Neymar He has some dislike for CR7, and this could start a great cycle at PSG, although I would like neither Mbappé nor Ney to leave.

What I read in the news is not the main problem but there is political pressure and also some unfulfilled promises to Mbappe so it might feel uncomfortable for Mbappe to continue to be at PSG if the situation is still like this, and also an option for Mbappe.

I think that a player cannot be above a team and unfortunately that was what the PSG team made Mbappé believe, about the list that he made so that not only a few players (including Ney) were removed it seems that it is something so bad and that it has no name, for me it is an act of not having any ethics or professionalism, it is an act in addition to being very selfish and self-centered, too inflatnile, I think it is not childish, because not even a child would be capable to leave someone else without a job, I think that Mbappé needs to mature a lot, besides time passes, and that is something that does not suit him, that is his main enemy.


In another order of ideas, here is one of the conversations for the possible transfer of a very emblematic player:

Man Utd urged to sign ‘De Gea replacement’ after Champions League heroics

Manchester United scouts were reportedly in the stands during Porto’s Champions League win over Leverkusen, with one player in particular impressing spectators with a historic performance.

The Portuguese side ran out 3-0 winners largely thanks to their goalkeeper Diogo Costa, who stole the show with an all-round performance that showcased why United have allegedly eyed up the 23-year-old as a potential long-term replacement for David de Gea.

Well, we have to wait and see how things develop, there are already rumors that are being put together, but I would say that the biggest rumors will come after the Qatar World Cup.

Barcelona has sold to much shares for tv broadcast it will be getting less income than before. that means if barcelona will not able to use so much money again to buy player with crazy price like the last transfer season. This club is still in the crisis. The debt has not yet paid and it's still owe salary from some of its players. barcelona has no choice other than using the free transfer as a way to get a new player. Selling more shares means barcelona will not be owned by its supporters again.
It's better barcelona to be sold for billionaires that have bunch of money.

Barca is still in a tremendous financial crisis. this season they spent quite a lot of money to bring in new players. there's nothing wrong if they save for the transfer market mid-season.
Barca will get some players, even if they are players on a free transfer. if it were needed in Xavi's plans, it would be more profitable than wasting money on a player who would not suit Barca's current game.

By selling some of his players and some broadcasting rights owned by Barcelona should have earned a lot of money and should now be recovering his financial condition even though it is still a process and needs a lot of time to enjoy a stable financial condition, Xavi must find a smart person to manage finance in Barcelona.
