⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[snipie]

Southgate might still continue to do his job even if England are eliminated by France in this round of the World Cup. There are some news like he is wanted by The Football Association to stay until EURO 2024 at least. But I wonder what he is thinking about this now. Of course he would like to focused on their France match at the moment. Even if they don't get past France this is still not a bad run for them actually. Because they are facing one of the biggest contenders of the title already in the quarter finals.

But the last time England became the champions in the World Cup was in 1966. The supporters are believing in them to make it this time as they have a great momentum and a squad full of talented footballers. I think Southgate won't leave the team unless they find a better alternative.

Well, they might accept him to stay if England will be defeated by a goal difference or by penalties. In case of a humiliating defeat by 3 goals difference or more then it will be the end for his experience with the team since he will resign, forced to, or being kicked.
I don't want to talk much about Saturday's game since it is quite challenging and I can't support any one although I tend to think that France is a little bit favorite. Otherwise even if England will progress, it might be stopped by Portugal or Brazil or Argentina later. World Cup in Qatar came with a lot of surprises. I can't imagine Argentina being the champions and Saudis talking about how they won vs the world champions lol

Currently there are several rumors that say that Barcelona is ready to auction off some of its players because some of them don't want to extend their contracts and some don't satisfy Xavi.
There are the names Alba and Busquets who are not going to renew their contracts with Barcelona and it is reported that Busquets will go to MLS to make new experiences while filling his old days.
On the other hand, there is also the name Depay and Kessie, who are not developing well, who are ready to be released by Barcelona in this transfer.

I know a man like Xavi knows what he wants,he knows exactly the type of players he wants in his team and there are some expectations he expects of them,therefore anything that makes him not to see those things from any of his player,he has the right to put them on sale.
Alba and Busquet are old names in the Barcelona starting line,and maybe Xavi  has a particular tactics in mind that does not suit the line of play of those two mentioned players.Jordi Alba and bosquets are two experienced players that has helped others players adapt to the new blend well in the team.

I don't blame Arsenal if they lose Martinelli, because players sometimes are hard to convince when renewing contract. And clubs like Barcelona are hard to turn down. I still think they need a winger. If you look at Barcelona their wingers always prefer to play from the right wing. The only player that plays from there is Ansu Fati who is always injured. And with Lewa almost looking to leave possible next season then it is a right move for Barca.

On their transfer issues it is still ridiculous how they sign players and still say there having financial issues. I just think laliga officials are turning a blind eye to there financial dealings

Martinelli have mentioned on different occasions that he is bent on extending his contract with the club and wants to stay so I don't understand where this news of a possible move is coming from. Barcelona have many wingers in their squad, I'm quite confident that Martinelli will stay and extend his contract with Arsenal for more years to come.

Martinelli for me is the future of Arsenal and is showing great potencial. Arsenal needs to start making a team for the upcoming years. They are on a good way with how good they are playing and it looks like Arteta knows his job. Barcelona wont buy Martinelli they already have too many attackers

[makishart]

Endrick is not the replacement of Benzema. Dude is like 16 or something, do you really think that Real would hire a player at 16 or 17 and then put him at the front and let him play there? Obviously not, they could get him, put him on youth team for a season, then loan him out to another team at 18 or so, and then get him at 19 and ask him to be bench and play in cup games and when others are injured or booked. After that by 20-21 they will make him the starter if he kept on showing promising future for them.

The most sense scenario to be happened with him. I don't even think with his current experience and he would be able to become a replacement for benzema. Im thinking about real madrid will buy him as the future asset that will be developed slowly. He has potential as he was making palmeiras able to win the cup. That proves endrick has quality but his experience was not enough to be used as starting line up in the real madrid. At least madrid needs to think about the future of him too then he will not disappointed after joined in the madrid.

[abhiseshakana]

it's a mega deal that highlights the potential of brazilian striker Endrick!!!
real madrid will pay €60 million plus taxes which will see the transfer grow to €72m to brazilian club palmeiras.

I'm a bit surprised to know Real Madrid wants to pay €60+ million. As far as I know, his current market price is only around €20 million.
We know Endrick isn't a top striker, he is still an average striker even if he is still 16 years old. I think Real Madrid can't expect him to replace Benzema's role in the near future. We even don't know if this youngster can have a bright future or not in Real Madrid. I agree that Real Madrid pays too expensive for a youngster.

https://www.transfermarkt.com/endrick/profil/spieler/971570

He is still too young to replace Benzema, so I think this is pure speculation made by Real Madrid. 60 Million Euros is a fantastic contract value for a player at such a young age, and I think that price was even slightly too much for the young player because Endrick Felipe is not yet a world-class player and not many people know about him. However, taking a risk is not doing something thoughtlessly and without reckoning, and I think Real Madrid has thought of all the consequences because sometimes, risk-taking can be a start to getting satisfactory results.

[Velvet78]

Of course it isn't easy for Endrick to replace Benzema even if he is transferred when he is 18 years old. He is just going to be an investment for the future. Of course he would find chances in the lineup but he wouldn't be the first choice unless he shows an extraordinary performance regularly. He needs to be like Haaland for that I mean.

Most of us must be hearing about Endrick for the first time. But I trust Real Madrid's scouts anyway of course. Brazil already are full of this kind of talented young players. With the right scouting they can be discovered really easily. Real Madrid are one of the teams that like to find this kind of players.

Endrick Felipe is projected not to replace Karim Benzema in the near future, Real Madrid requires Endrick Felipe's contribution to long -term projects, so it takes adaptation to develop players in the Real Madrid squad, although Endrick Felipe has proven its quality in Palmeiras, so that the big European club starts to speak and interested to recruit him. Besides being relatively young, the players have the potential to become a frightening attacker on the frontline of Real Madrid for the future.

Unikannya Endrick Felipe can play in several positions, the front-line or middle attacker, Ancelotti often places Karim Benzema in the position, so that it has the opportunity to be rotated, if Karim Benzema suffers injuries or fatigue.

If I were to be Martineli I will not consider going to Barcelona an option. He is a starter in Arsenal and the Arsenal of today has direction. Arsenal is seriously contesting for English Premier league title and they are in the race for Europa League also. Apart from these, in the next 3 to 4 seasons, Arsenal will continue to be in the top 4 of the English Premier League, unless they change management. This means Martineli will continue to be in Champions league after this season.

[rendravolt]

There are such rumours these days. Aston Villa are looking for being very active in this transfer window. Abraham and Felix are already in their target list. Only their market values are already getting near 100 million euros. Roma and Atletico Madrid both wouldn't demand an amount less than their market values I assume.

Both of these players haven't been very productive until this moment in this season. But they are quality players for sure. Abraham is already familiar with the EPL so he wouldn't have any problem with adaptation. I don't know about Felix. He might not want to join an average team instead of a bigger one. He is still a talented youngster who deserves to play in the Champions League.

Maybe if you see the difference in these players, it is true that Abraham is more worthy of playing in the English league, he has to increase his flying hours at other clubs. But if Joao Felix goes to Aston Villa it will be a downturn in his career in football, moreover he played very well in the world cup with Portugal. Indeed, it must be admitted that at Atletico Madrid he played less effectively, maybe he was not suitable for how to train Diego Simeone, so it was only natural that later he would leave to seek new challenges at a new club, but seeing that Joao Felix is a talented player he should have joined a club that has big name too.

If Barcelona were the elite and attractive club of some years ago, then i'd say Martinelli can't refuse them if they come for him, but they are not that anymore, they have fallen from the top, and are still struggling to get back there, so even if it is true that Barcelona want Martinelli, i don't believe that he will leave Arsenal to go there.

Having said that, i don't even believe the news to be true, Barcelona have financial problems and they have to be careful how they make signings from now on, especially with the amount they spent on players during the last summer transfer window. Martinelli is having the time of his life in Arsenal, thus i have to agree with you that he will extend his contract and remain in Arsenal.

La liga was actually different compared with the brazilian league. That means if endrick needs to adapt with the new environment for sure. He was not even enough to compete with another striker in la liga.
I think that it's too early for him to play in the main squad of madrid. He has proven he was good in palmeiras didn't mean he will be good to play in the real madrid as well.

Real madrid was looking for the young talented player that can still be developed for the long term plan. Benzema itself has become a successful long term plan by madrid and so madrid was doing the same to the endrick as this wonderkid can become the next benzema with the goes of time. That's why madrid wanna pay lots of money to get him from palmeiras. Madrid already analyzed him about his potential for the club.

The problem is that when he said he could be at Barcelona, would there be guarantees for Martineli? He is currently one of the mainstays of Arsenal and looking at the current density of Barcelona players, I personally find it difficult for Martineli because he has to compete again.
I prefer him to remain at Arsenal rather than have to adapt again and fail to compete at Barcelona. Currently Barcelona's position also has Ansu and Ferran in the same position as Martineli and these two players are also still quite good in terms of performance.

transfermarkt.co.uk reports that both premiere league clubs fc liverpool and tottenham hotspurs are very interested in the eintracht frankfurt striker Randal Kolo Muani and would like to sign the french national for next summer

[cryptofrka]

It's that time of the season to start speculating again, and the biggest rumor is about Liverpool going all in for Bellingham.
Their season has gone wrong and if they wait for the summer, they might be out of the CL spots which would make this transfer a lot harder.

I would not be surprised to see a huge offer in the winter window, and it is said that it could reach 150 million euros.

I'm usually against such huge transfers - but Bellingham does look like a complete midfielder and he's only 20 years old.

Bayer-Insider is reporting that the club would like to keep Benjamin Pavard as he's showing strong performances. However, if he's not happy Bayern will be forced to sell him in the summer.

Bayern want to keep Benjamin Pavard, but if he doesn't give any signals that he's happy and wants to stay, they will have to sell him in the summer. At the moment, the Frenchman has no intention to talk about a new contract in Munich [Bayern-Insider, @cfbayern @altobelli13]

Source: https://twitter.com/iMiaSanMia/status/1601135970195509250

Too bad, but expected. I really doubt he will stay at the club, tbh. He has been a valuable player for the club in recent and has shown his quality on the pitch plenty of times already. It would be a shame to see him leave. Nevertheless, I am sure that FC Bayern can handle this transfer as well. Nobody is bigger than the club, you know.

Galatasaray are heavily rumored to be interested in signing Giroud this winter window. Giroud, who is old but able to perform beautifully with France at the world cup, has made his name again a byword in the transfers window. his contract with ac milan will end next season and it is even reported that ac milan wants to extend giroud contract period after the world cup is over. ac milan still needs giroud for this season because he has been a savior for ac milan several times in matches this season
Apart from that, AC Milan also really wants to keep their star, Leao, in the January window because the AC Milan front-line player is the target of big European teams like Chelsea and Manchester United. leao and giroud are the two players who will be the main focus Ac milan in extending the contract period after the world cup is over.

I don't think Galatasaray are in need of another striker now. They have already signed Icardi for the starting eleven after seeing horrible performances by Seferovic and Gomis. Icardi has adapted to the game plan very quickly as well. He has been making a really good level of score contribution so far.
Therefore adding Giroud to the team as well would just make one of these players unhappy as one of them will have to be in the subs. Besides Milan must still be happy with his performance. I think they will extend with him soon for one more year.

Olivier Giroud has earned a name for himself in this World Cup with France. If I'm not wrong so far he has scored three goals which is quite a big thing in a tournament like the World Cup. Even top players like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are hardly able to do so.

Therefore, I think AC Milan is trying to extend his contract, and he has also earned himself a rumor that Galatasaray is also interested in him, as a result of this. In my opinion, he has done quite well in the Italian league so far, and I think he will still be able to play for AC Milan for another two seasons if he is in peak condition.

I'm usually against such huge transfers - but Bellingham does look like a complete midfielder and he's only 20 years old.

Bellingham is one of the very young Midfielders in this world cup that has impressed, his value will go up more If England somehow find themselves in the finals. Before England's last game I told a friend how good this young boy was, he said it was just a media hype, the regular hype that English Players get, but beyond doubts, he was convinced after seeing the amount of influence he had for England in that game against Senegal. For me the only other young player that would have had his value go up if his country remained in the competition is Musiala. IMO, Gavi is good, but Musiala and Bellingham are better.

Not only Liverpool because reportedly Jude Bellingham is also the target of 2 other big teams such as Real Madrid and Manchester City. In my opinion, if you look at the potential of these 3 teams, it is Liverpool who can give him opportunities in terms of playing minutes, because if we look at Manchester City, they have many players who are ready to compete in the main squad. Real Madrid is the same way, their young players are competing quite fiercely, at Liverpool it's not that there is no competition, but if you look at the current conditions he can be a differentiator that will help Liverpool.

Due to his stunning appearance at the World Cup, Jude Bellingham is being targeted by a number of big clubs now, one of the most frequently linked is The Reds, Jude Bellingham made a good record against Iran, he became the second youngest goalscorer for The Three Lions at the age of 19 years and equaled Michael Owen's record.

The market price for Jude Bellingham currently ranges from 100 to 150 million Euros, although it could be increased or decreased, so far there are several clubs that are monitoring Jude Bellingham, not only Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea and Real Madrid also have high hopes of bringing the player. But Real Madrid seems to mind paying the player at that price, because the player is still relatively young and has not shown stable consistency, so the opportunities for Liverpool and Manchester City are quite open.
