⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[AndySt]

At this stage of Ronaldo career I don't think he will prefer to be in small club, what Ronaldo needs right now is a big team or average team that is in the Champions league that can an advantage to his career.  I know if it was possible for Ronaldo to go Chelsea he would have done that before now, Chelsea will be a good club for Ronaldo to be.

Actually, I am still inclined to trust the rumors that Ronaldo had excellent chances to move to Chelsea already in the summer transfer window and the co-owner of the club sincerely wanted this, but this did not happen solely because of the reluctance of Thomas Tuchel, who was the head coach of the team at that time and whose opinion for Todd Boeli at that time it became decisive. Of course, Ronaldo will not go to a small club in the near future and then it is preferable for him to stay at Manchester United. Another question is that the style of play that Ten Hag instills in the team does not yet suit Cristiano's style of play, and constantly staying on the bench and waiting for his chance is not Ronaldo's most cherished desire, given his ambitions and the clock that counts down the time until the end of his professional career as a football player. Now the most important thing for a football player is to successfully prove himself at the fifth FIFA World Cup and return the fart and self-confidence.

At this point Liverpool really need to strengthen their squad by recruiting fresh legs and young talented players who will fit into the style of play and help the team. Enzo Fernandez is a good player who can actually add experience and talent in the squad, and 35millon Euros isn't too much for a player of his calibre so in my opinion it is a fair deal for both teams of they can get the deal in the January transfer window.

Maybe Liverpool already has a target to buy players next season and maybe not only Enzo Fernandez but also many other players who have better skills, what is clear is Liverpool must buy players at a young age because at a young age they will have incredible strength and stamina. Meanwhile, if you buy players who are over the age of 30 then it will make Liverpool again experience the same problem and will lose money.

Most chances they will not do too much buying in coming transfer window because they already have good squad and their issue is few injuries and few players are not able to perform good which can settle with last few wins give them good confidence and now this break is surely going to be positive for them Mohammad Salah is also now back in good touch which is also good, but we can expect good changes after end of this season because they have few targets and these can achieve after end of this season which will be good for them because right now in this season they are poor and now most chances they could be not able to spotted in top three positions which is surely big setback for the team and fans.

In fact, and Jurgen Klopp, I think it's very likely that Liverpool will be able to finance the purchase of bigger players if the club gets new owners or investors in order to get a feeling that it can spend a lot and take some risks on new signings.
One of these partners is Fenway Sports Group, current owner of Liverpool, which has already said it is fully committed to Liverpool, but is investigating the possibility of selling part to investment banks such as Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley in order to find new buyers or shareholders.
Like any team, Liverpool are also quite difficult to compete in such a fierce transfer market, especially when some of these competitors seem to have all the money in the world to spend.

Rumours surrounding the reds that they might attract foreign investors who are capable of spending gigantic in the transfer window. Liverpool needs more new players like never before because their team have really suffered defeats from their opponents due to injuries, the key players are the ones that's badly affected by the injury. Jurgen Klopp will definitely scout out the perfect match for his strategy and he should not depend on one player, but he can sign as many talented ranks as possible.

Bring in as many players as possible can cause problems in the future, both financial and excess player which can have a bad impact on team performance. There needs to be adjustments between the arrival and departure of players to maintain the stability of the squad. Indeed, this season Liverpool only spent €95 million to bring in a few players, and get €80 million from the sale of players this season. Liverpool need to consider more in expenditure and income before acting on upcoming transfer market activity

Barcelona seem very likely to let Memphis Depay go in January. His contract is already expiring this summer so he can be transferred without paying any transfer fee in January. He has had thigh injury since late September. He couldn't even play properly in the La Liga or Champions League. He is just no use for Barcelona now. Because it's not even clear when his injury will be gone.

In fact, Barcelona thought of selling Depay last summer but preferred to do so for Aubameyang. They must have hoped for him to be a good backup player for Lewandowski. But now he will most probably be useless for them after returning from a long-term injury in the future. I wonder whether there will be any team interested in him in January.

Memphis playing days with Barcelona are simply over he is not well suited Into the Barcelona kind of game. So I expect him to leave, it's already obvious now, he has less game time to even show himself up. I expect Barcelona tobe hotter than they are currently immediately after the world cup. Same reason why Auba left, Depay almost did but reached no agreements with Juventus .

Memphis Depay is no longer included in Xavi's project. It has been seen from the start of the season that Depay is no longer being treated because several other quality attackers have arrived to make Memphis Depay sidelined.
now Memphis Depay must immediately look for another team for his critical development and currently there are several rumors linked to him even his old team Manchester United are also rumored to be bringing Memphis Depay back.
this is still confusing considering that Memphis Depay's performance has increasingly made it difficult for him to get a place in the top teams.

Man United you say? Complete Jest to make.
Manchester has no plans for him and has no plans of him returning to the premier league had a bad spell and was sold back by Jose Mourinho due to lack of game time

The problem is not where he will go in the summer transfer window, but which club wants to sign him with underperforming plus he is 37 years old, a big salary, and he only wants a team that enters the champions league.
Regarding Chelsea, he has been rumored since the transfer window last season. however, until now no one team is really willing to bring him from Old Trafford.
I've read on several occasions while Potter was being interviewed, so far he isn't thinking about bringing in a newcomer in the January transfer window. however, the opportunity exists and Chelsea are more interested in targeting Victor Osimhen.

Ronaldo is a great star, but his performance is very much declining. and for now, ai has to prove it first with a very impressive performance, he has to show it at the world cup event in Qatar later.

Ronaldo is just setting big confusion among football fans and the football entirely. What Ronaldo needs to do now is to retire or remain in any club he is. Ronaldo should not expect to remain at the stage of football for more than 15 years it is very unfair.
I don't know why he is stressing himself for nothing. He has gotten so many titles and individual awards so what is he killing himself again for.  He should play the role of role model instead of being aggressive in every match.

They had no money left to speculate on new players?

Or simply they had some but decided to keep it like that and seeing their club drowning... that is just complicated and no sense decision , they cannot compete with the other big clubs if they did not invest on new players to keep the club in shape , not stuck in like what we witnessed now.

Oshinmen to Madrid will be a great deal with Madrid feeling the impact of Benzema's absence then will need a strong centre forward that can bang in goals or assist for them. His presence will even challenge Madrid teammates to improve. It can also give Ancelotti the ability to try out more formations. I think he will be a good signing for Madrid.

Benzema was absent many games with Real Madrid at domestic league and Champion League due injured and other technical reason, seems Madrid not get good result when Benzema absent, I think enough reason for Real Madrid try to sign Oshinmen on next window transfer or waiting until June 2023. Despite with Benzema have 34 years old actually he can't play on the top level right now and little I am Real Madrid fans little disappointed with many crucial games Benzema absent without any reason, when Madrid beaten by Vallecano Benzema not in line up without any updated injured or not.

Osimhen is most talented player and have scored 8 goals for Napoli in Serie A, he still 23 years old and worth investment for Real Madrid until six years later if want to sign Osimhen.

I hope they are not wrong in recruiting players to increase their ammunition. Because previously they brought in Nunez and in his game he was not satisfactory, although at the beginning he was believed to be playing well and competing with Erling Haaland who is a successful signing for Manchester City now. Indeed they need to add players in the winter to be able to improve team performance. I hope Jurgen Klopp can be more selective in submitting the players he is after, because he buys a lot of players but in the end only decorates the bench.

I think so too. Thanks to his historical achievements, he always has the option to either go to the MLS or another money league to make huge money. But that's not the main option because of his ambition, I'm sure he'll only go for that option if he can't find a big club that allows him to play in the Champions League. I hope that in the winter we will get an answer to the question about the future of Ronaldo.

Agree. If Real Madrid can sign Victor Osimhen, it will be a big addition to Real Madrid squad.
Considering the current performance of this player, he has the ability to replace Benzema's role. Even, this player seems to be a better striker for Real Madrid because he is still young, skillful, aggressive, and fast. Benzema isn't as fast as previously now, he is easier to get injured as well. Ancelotti is very expected to sign a young striker like Victor Osimhen.

Since joining Napoli from Lille Osimhen has showed stable performance and for each seasons he can able to scoring more than 10 goals and this season Osimhen has reach to his top performance and his contribution for Napoli was quite big so i am not too surprised if there were big clubs who interested want to bought him this January but Real Madrid still have Benzema and Vinícius Júnior so i was wondering why Ancelotti want him because so far Benzema and Vinícius Júnior performance on Real Madrid were impressive
Besides Real Madrid other teams such as Manchester United and Chelsea also interested to him and most of these teams had strong financial so they are willing to pay with huge money to get him as long as Osimhen can considering their offers but this is interesting to see which teams will be his destination later

[TheGreatPython]

Sporting lisbon is a club that has been Ronaldo goal when he retires later, but I don't think that will happen in the near future because after all ronaldo still has the desire to play in a big team that can compete in the champions league, now is ronaldo future still an unsolved puzzle but I believe for next season he will no longer be in manchester and maybe his next career adventure in germany or france, while to return to sporting lisbon of course maybe 2 or 3 years from now will happen.

At this stage of Ronaldo career I don't think he will prefer to be in small club, what Ronaldo needs right now is a big team or average team that is in the Champions league that can an advantage to his career.  I know if it was possible for Ronaldo to go Chelsea he would have done that before now, Chelsea will be a good club for Ronaldo to be.

As we have recent development between Ronaldo and Manchester United coach most chances he will stay here and try to do his best for this club because no other club is going to accept him which is surely a concern for him but with the world cup is also going to play after few days in this event his performance can also do good role for his career if he is able to do something positive for his team then surely he could be in good position but with his salary and bonuses package it's surely not for any club to give him any chances as we have in last transfer window when clubs like Napoli and Atlético Madrid fail to agree on salary terms and not go ahead with this deal while there was rumour Chelsea is also interested but now things looking not good.

Benzema is not an injury player, he is having this consistency problem because of world cup. It has been long he played in world cup and this might be his last. He doesn't want what happened to Mane to happen to him. After world cup Benzema will return to frequent playing of football and by then Osimen will no longer see playing time, which will be so bad for the career of the young man. He needs to go where he will play frequently.

He wanna try to give the best in the world cup but i do know what he feels about that. the same time was also happening with player from another club. He must give the best during his last performance in the world cup.
Real madrid was always facing tough game without him. The young talented player likerodrygo can't adapt with the club. Mostly goals happened from another player than striker.
that's it. Osimhen potentially to be the main striker for real madrid

Most chances Karim Benzema is going to stay here at Real Madrid until end of 2024 and with the end of this contract most chances he is going to retire from soccer because next month he is going to turn 35 and then after end of his contract he will be 37 which mean no more soccer with this all now Real Madrid having one full season and one half for having his replacement which is mostly like Jesus or Osimhen because currently these both are under Carlos Ancelotti radar with who could be lucky it's not clear.

But, good thing happening they are doing good with few youngsters as well which are right now serving with Benzema and having good start of their career even they are still in hunt and mostly likely things could be clear in coming days.

Real Madrid will be willing to give Benzema contract upto his 37th year but he will need a good backup which Osimen can handle very well. But if Osimen goes to Real Madrid, he must be very patient in the next two seasons before he will become the first choice. Ancelotti is a good coach who will help Osimen to develop into a world class striker.

There are no rumours it is already happening as current owners hold this club on sell with mostly likely we are going to have another Arab Sheikh is going to own club in England with good amount is also going to spend for the development of the club and competition could be increase because right now this new trend is working in Arab Gulf region, and they are buying UEFA clubs very frequently which is increasing funding and quality because with this we have many players are coming from CONMEBOL and AFC which is good for the game and UEFA is surely enjoying this all.

Mostly likely Liverpool is going to have new management soon, so this could be surely big challenge for many clubs in coming season because with this they could be able to have tough competitors for all.

With the recent Ronaldo form this season and based on statistics I don't think Chelsea will still be interested in signing Ronaldo. There were many rumours that the new hierarchy will want to bring Ronaldo to chelsea but as things stands now that move seems unlike and unrealistic in the January transfer window. It will only depend on Graham Potter if he wants Ronaldo at the club.

Graham Potter will surely take Ronaldo considering how poor his attack is. You can't just rule out Ronaldo and I will say it just like Ferdenarnd said. Ronaldo is having a bad season because of lack of proper Pre season and if he can get in more minutes at the world Cup then we will be having a reshaped Ronaldo. Another reason I feel Chelsea board wants hims is the marketing view. With Ronaldo Chelsea would sale both Jersey and stadium tickets more.

i don't think so since so many rumours about chelsea is always related with young talented player like nkuku or osimhen. there's no reason for chelsea to buy ronaldo. His age is too old. He may still have a few years to play in the competitive league like EPL. The time is always moving forward. Chelsea must also think for long term not for short term. The different case if ronaldo will be priced only 10 millions USD. Chelsea might be interested with him.
Even his agent was complaining about how difficult to get a new team for ronaldo as so many offer already made to the various teams but still none of them interested with him.
Ronaldo must also aware if he was become even older and he must also think for the future career once he will not become a player again in the football

[Oluwa-btc]

Currently I'm Speechless over Cristiano Ronaldo as a player and his form on the pitch, I feel like he is completely focused on the Fifa World Cup for now talks bout leaving Manchester United are nothing but Bullshit, asides that, from what i read that he had a crunch talk with Manchester United hierarchies and he had no plans to leave now not even after the FIFA World Cup.

Moving to Chelsea. ? Nah! He'll make a great signing but to be frank here, Victor Oshime from Napoli will be the best thing that will happen to Chelsea for thr next ten years in the Champions League and Premier League. I think he is Physically fit/ ready and Mentally likewise.

Liverpool having a new Management would see them bringing a new coach of they don't have same visions with Jurgen Klopp. They would also be on the same track if they can just fund Jurgen Klopp with enough money for rebuilding. Henderson, Thiago Alcantara and James Milner needs to leave, also they haven't gotten a replacement for Sadio Mane yet, Luiz Diaz people say.. Bullshit! A good player but doesn't match up with Sadio's work rate.
