⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Leviathan.007]

Romelu Lukaku doesn't seem like he has got what he wanted at Inter again. His performance level is not very satisfying these days.

Because of that we might see him back at Chelsea after his loan ends. Lukaku really hoped to show better performances after returning to Inter. But things didn't go in the calculated way for him I'm afraid. Especially that long-running injury made things worse for him. His World Cup performance was horrible and it was a sign of something for Inter also. Now he is still wasting many goal chances for Inter. I don't think Inter really need him now so they might not even try to extend his loan.

Difficult with my current Lukaku. Inter conditions were also different when the era of Conte and Inzaghi now that made Lukaku still haven't found his rhythm back and it seems he will fail to make his name soared again at Inter.
His hope was clearly improving performance but when he failed he had to prepare with the worst possibility I think because his performance is now very much down.

Lukaku couldn't prove himself very well during this season and Inter Milan is played well and without problems in attacking lines without him so far their Argentinian forward Lautaro Martínez, scored 13 goals during this season in Serie A and Simone Inzaghi won't risk using any other player instead of their current players they got in their system that' why there is a high chance to say Lukaku should leave Inter Milan and try to prove himself in another team.

Another interesting news was coming again from chelsea. Chelsea may make another stupid decision again despite signing the experienced coach to solve the problems that happened with the club and chelsea was aiming another garbage coach.

It's thomas frank, brentford's coach that already linked to the chelsea. This stupid todd boehly was able spending a few hundred millions to buy players but unable to spend at least two digits to take a good coach for its club.

I don't know why chelsea is always taking such horrible decision like that. chelsea has been even closer with the relegation zone. Will chelsea be relegated this season? that's interesting thing to bet on it

This is the importance of having a football adviser in a club and it seems that they have very bad advisors regarding the selection of a coach or even if it is the management that is in trouble. Todd Boehly was able to bring top European players to Chelsea, but why couldn't he bring in a top coach who is more experienced and has won a lot of titles? that's what really surprised me. Apart from that, Thomas Frank is the same as Graham Potter, he is not a credible coach, I hope Chelsea can be more careful regarding the selection of their new coach later.

To me it looks like Chelsea got lots of money and they have no idea what to do and how to spend the money, we know they have to use another coach and Potter should get fired but someone like Thomas frank who got no honor and no experience and never coached a great team time Chlesae will never help this team unless a miracle happens for this team.

With a growing collection of magnificent trophies, Chelsea is the pride of London. Graham Potter is a mediocre coach who has no idea how to run the operations of a top-tier team, therefore it is evident that he doesn't fit with the blues' style. Todd Boehly did his part by acquiring great players and bringing them to the team in an effort to produce winning outcomes in league games, but it ended up going the other way; they suffered a string of losses. Graham Potter has had plenty of opportunity to make changes to his team, but nothing has been done, and things are really growing worse with each game. The fans are demanding change because they are unhappy with the club's current situation.

[rdluffy]

I am seeing everywhere that Chelsea fans don't want coach Potter anymore, and he will probably leave within a few days, as the situation is not good at all with him at the club.
I remember in 2012 when in the middle of the Champions League, the team fired André Villas-Boas, and brought in Roberto Di Matteo who was the assistant. Needless to say, that year the team won the league, so changing coaches can be a good thing, even in the middle of a competition.

I don't know if you have thought about it, but Zidane has no contract with any team, wouldn't it be a good challenge for the Frenchman, and a good solution for Chelsea?
There is no lack of players, since the team has hired many youngsters and there is no lack of money. Besides, the English championship is the most competitive one nowadays, where everyone has more interest, and Chelsea is a team capable of win UCL again.

What do you think, are there any possibilities?

I was quite surprised by Mbappe's statement, that he is an AC Milan fan, and if he moves to Serie A, he will only accept AC Milan. Maybe this is not the right time for AC Milan to get superstar fans who are in their best performance. Because AC Milan doesn't have enough money to bring him in. Even though he expressed his love for Milan, Di Marzio said, there were no negotiations whatsoever between Milan and Mbappe. Of course, I am aware that Milan cannot sign Mbappe with the remainder of his contract. PSG will not just let Mbappe go.

I don't even understand how Barcelona manages their debth with Fifa  to avoid sanctions. Everytime it would be said that they are in financial troubles and yet they make signings more than people that doesn't have financial issues.
About signing new players and especially Messi I read where he said that he will only make such transfer moves if fifa rule permits them.

Seriously there factors or factions behind this strange businesses from Barcelona, they tend to get overlooked by their financial crises and even compete with top teams for players. Imagine a team in such debt signing the likes of Lewandowski, even Bayern coach Julien Neglesmann has cried out that he still wonder how they do these businesses. Should they bring Messi back on such a huge wage then I will confirm that FIFA is truly biased in their way. Even Laliga has overlooked some irregularities maybe because they don’t want to lose Barca because of it pedegree in the league.

That is why they have been selling rights over the years for some parts of their brand and I think even some tv or marketing infrastructure? I don't remember exactly, but Barcelona is a club that has strong ties with large investors as well. Even though we as outsiders think that they must collapse soon, I already thought it so often but then somehow they were saved in a last moment attempt anyway. Who knows what kind of cash flows are happening behind the scenes. To me it is as if these clubs can never go bankrupt although any other normal business would have long been gone. If Barcelona needs more credit line they could go to some investor from abroad and ask for them to secure the loan in exchange for whatever. If Messi really left the club because of financial reasons that is the first time it really happened. I thought Messi left because the offer from PSG was too good and he wanted to try something else in his career.

Barcelona really does not think too much about spending money even when they do not have so much money. If anyone thinks that Barcelona does not have a financial crisis right now, they are wrong. Barcelona is still in an unfavorable financial situation. I believe they are having a profit of 275 million per season right now. That is not going to be enough for Barcelona to overcome the financial problems that they are in at the moment.

Of course, La Liga is inclined to overlook some irregularities from Barcelona. After all, Barcelona is one of the premier teams that they have got. If they just take Barcelona out of the equation, Real Madrid are going to be champions of La Liga almost every time.

I think it's normal that Mbappe or any star player often mentions his favorite club. But as you said that PSG will be the place for him to continue to advance in his career. Then AC Milan had minimal finances, and there was no response from their side regarding Mbappe.

I am seeing everywhere that Chelsea fans don't want coach Potter anymore, and he will probably leave within a few days, as the situation is not good at all with him at the club.

Chelsea looked unlucky when the support fans were getting fed up with the decision to keep Potter. Since Chelsea's slump, I don't think Chelsea's owners either care or run out of money to find another coach.

I don't believe with several player announcement about their favorite club, seems don't surprise with Mbappe statement he is AC Milan fans because ever said with the same statement about he is Cristiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid fans but reject offering for joining with Madrid last season.

AC Milan have not good financial for signing star player and most transfer activities with player have been free agent, I think Milan should looking new investor and bring back the glory with the best achievement winning Champion League tittle and I am remember with their player from Kaka, Seedorf, Pirlo and Sevchenko.

@Oneandpure I don’t think that he’ll ever move to Serie A, because he’s young and he can join Real Madrid now or any of the Manchester clubs and then move on to Serie A later. Also while AC Milan is a good club, but I just can’t see him joining there now and I sincerely hope that he moves to Premiere League or La Liga only.

Marcel Sabitzer, who is currently on loan from FC Bayern to Manchester United, can well imagine continuing to play for ManU after his loan ends in the summer. However, no decision has been made yet and FC Bayern will probably have to agree with ManU on a suitable transfer fee. Sabitzer's market value is currently around €20 and his contract at FC Bayern runs until summer 2025.

Marcel Sabitzer would love to stay at Manchester United and United are happy with him, but a decision won't be made until around April/May [@FabrizioRomano]

I mean with two years left on his contract, I can hardly imagine FC Bayern letting Sabitzer go for some cheap price (I guess it will be somewhere between €20-€30 million). Even though I would like to see Sabitzer become an established player in the Premier League. He really deserves that.

Their debt is extremely high, but they also understand that their brand has a certain value. I don't know how much of their tangible and intangible assets they have sold or rented out or used to secure a loan, but I think a collapse is not very likely for those huge soccer clubs. If anything, they would probably decide to sell equity or assets in order to avoid the collapse. But from there on it could be shifting into a downward spiral as the club could become less valuable in total very quickly. I am not able to give an estimate where Barcelona exactly stands. But I know that the media is talking about a collapse for some clubs for over a decade I think and it never happened.

Sabitzer's role so far with Manchester United has been very important, since Eriksen was injured he has often filled that position. Therefore, Erik ten hag is also very happy with the performance provided by Sabitzer and makes it possible to buy him at the end of the season from Bayern Munich if the agreement meets a bright spot for the two clubs. But indeed, Sabitzer's current price is still quite cheap, he deserves a price of around 40 to 50 million euros if his performance continues to be as consistent as it is now.

Mbappe has ever stated it last year, some people may unaware about this. Mbappe was a loyal supporter for ac milan. Basically, he had made such claim since last year.

Kylian mbappe has claimed that he was an acmilan fan when he was young and stressed that he had promised he would never play for any other team should he ever move to italy

Mbappe was also fully explaining the reason why he has become ac milan fan since he was young

My connection with AC Milan is special," Mbappe told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

"As a child I had an Italian nanny and spent a lot of time with her family, who were all AC Milan fans. So, thanks to them, I also cheered for the Rossoneri and watched a lot of AC Milan games.

It's clear that if mbappe will have only one team that may have a chance to sign him as a new player and that's ac milan. I think that some day mbappe will be playing for milan.

There are a lot of EPL clubs that are also interested in Thuram. But it seems Thuram has long been a major target for Inter Milan, having looked close to joining in the summer of 2021 before a knee injury which made Inter Milan turned their attention to Joaquin Correa. But at it seems, the fact that he is set to leave on a free transfer in the summer when his deal with Borussia Monchengladbach expires has meant that they have seriously reignited their interest. And Inter would particularly be keen on signing Thuram in the event that Romelu Lukaku’s loan from Chelsea is not extended.

A few days ago I read from several news sources, Marcus Thuram was not willing to extend his contract with Gladbach. however, I cannot confirm the legitimacy of this news. however, referring to several rumors circulating, it is reported that Inter's hopes of bringing in Marcus Thuram in the transfer market seem to be fading. because, the striker reportedly prefers Barcelona as his career destination. according to Gazzetta dello Sport, the 25-year-old striker's agent has offered his client to Spanish club Barcelona amid interest from other teams.

Apart from that, his father, Lilian Thuram, also said that he wanted his son to join Barcelona in the summer transfer even though the Blaugrana are experiencing financial problems. so it will be interesting for us to wait, which club will be the place for Marcus Thuram to continue his career.

His ability has been tested with Monchengladbach so far by being a mainstay on the front lines, this season Thuram managed to score 11 goals and 3 assists for Monchengladbach from 21 appearances in the league, and his scintillating performances of course attracted many clubs to bring him in addition to being able to get it for free, Thuram also of course very interested in playing in a big team , ​​currently several teams have tried to hold talks with Thuram but it seems that no team has reached a personal agreement with thuram, I think even though now barcelona is still in a slump but this does not mean that barcelona is no longer have interest from world football players.

This is the importance of having a football adviser in a club and it seems that they have very bad advisors regarding the selection of a coach or even if it is the management that is in trouble. Todd Boehly was able to bring top European players to Chelsea, but why couldn't he bring in a top coach who is more experienced and has won a lot of titles? that's what really surprised me. Apart from that, Thomas Frank is the same as Graham Potter, he is not a credible coach, I hope Chelsea can be more careful regarding the selection of their new coach later.

The price from one of the new players owned by chelsea will be enough to contract bunch of professional coaches at the same time. It sounds non sense thing if todd was aiming for another mediocre coach. A bit surprised to see that if the problem was also in the chelsea management especially todd boehly and why? As far as i know that if potter has not agreed with all of transfers that happened during january but that transfer was coming from todd itself. It's giving an example about how bad the club when the owner was trying to intervere the club. Potter was also giving a club about he was not feeling happy with bunch of stars that came to the chelsea.

I just found this

Graham Potter blames Todd Boehly’s reckless spending for ‘undermining’ Chelsea training

https://metro.co.uk/2023/02/27/chelsea-news-graham-potter-blames-todd-boehlys-spending-for-undermining-him-in-training-18354971/

I think that if todd has no clue about how to run football business. Todd didn't know about what exactly football is.

To me it looks like Chelsea got lots of money and they have no idea what to do and how to spend the money, we know they have to use another coach and Potter should get fired but someone like Thomas frank who got no honor and no experience and never coached a great team time Chlesae will never help this team unless a miracle happens for this team.

Yeah, I do agree with it. The problem was not in the potter but todd as chelsea owner is also the big problem. Todd was always taking deicision without even consider effectiveness of his decision for the club.

[Avirunes]

Apart from that, his father, Lilian Thuram, also said that he wanted his son to join Barcelona in the summer transfer even though the Blaugrana are experiencing financial problems. so it will be interesting for us to wait, which club will be the place for Marcus Thuram to continue his career.

Yeah his father played for Barcelona and also mentioned that it would be a dream come true for him if Thuram plays for Barcelona. So its likely that he will move to Barcelona and other clubs won't have a chance until they are in race. But if Barca are out of race and have other players to go after before Thuram then I think other clubs might have a chance to go after him.

I was quite surprised by Mbappe's statement, that he is an AC Milan fan, and if he moves to Serie A, he will only accept AC Milan. Maybe this is not the right time for AC Milan to get superstar fans who are in their best performance. Because AC Milan doesn't have enough money to bring him in. Even though he expressed his love for Milan, Di Marzio said, there were no negotiations whatsoever between Milan and Mbappe. Of course, I am aware that Milan cannot sign Mbappe with the remainder of his contract. PSG will not just let Mbappe go.

I haven't checked that, but if Mbappe's statements are true then I'm honestly shocked to hear that. I agree with you that it will be very difficult for AC milan to sign this player of his current form and for a very high price. Moreover, many other teams also want this player, which financially I think they are more prepared than AC Milan. But if AC Milan can really get his signature, it will be a big transfer and also I think he will contribute a lot to one of the big teams in Serie A.

[posi]

Chelsea are looking for a chance to bring back Tammy Abraham to the team. But I'm not sure if they would be the only team to make an offer for him in the summer. I have heard about Manchester United to be interested in him as well. Considering the current conditions of both teams Manchester United seem more advantageous of course. Because they are likely to join the Champions League while Chelsea don't seem so.

Believe me. If chelsea will bring back tammy and then he will become another useless player that will always sit on the bench. The problem was not in the player but it must be in the chelsea's coach itself. The players were getting motivated by the coach. Bringing new player as a way to fix the problem is the worst decision that can be made by chelsea. The way of this club was thinking about that is actually unpredictable as always. That's shit if tammy goes to the stamford bridge

Bringing Tammy Abraham wouldn't make any difference provided that Graham Potter is still their manager in fact Lukaku is coming from his loan spell, meanwhile the club is blessed with lot of talented players yet the club hasn't make any progress in all competitions this season, while  some soccer analysts attributed there poor performance to due to lack of quality strikers, as it is now the club has Havertz, Abumeyang and Fofana as their main striker unfortunately the team isn't been scoring goals, now that the club has conditioned Graham Potter to either produce good results or get sacked I hope the club will return to their winning ways.

The coach needs to be changed. It's as simple as that. Otherwise the team is not improving. This club was doing well when Thomas Tuchel was the coach. But they wanted to improve and also wanted to bring better results.

I seriously think they could bring in Zidane as the coach. But I don't know what was going on in their mind when they brought in Potter has the new coach. Now the results are in front of everyone. They are the 10th team on the English premier League table. I think it is just a matter of time before Potter gets sacked.
