⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

I absolutely second this, and i think he would leave at the end of this season when his contract runs out, with the way Spurs have been playing and their inability to win any trophy yet again this season, i don't think the management at Spurs can give Conte a contract extension. Having said that, i know how important it is to finish in the top four and qualify for the CL, but Spurs cannot always take that as their achievement every season, they never even go far in the CL as we saw this season, the fans want a trophy, and it seems clear that Conte isn't the man to guide them to it. I am pretty sure the board would be in search of a manager, but tbh, in the last couple of years they've had good managers, like Mou, who couldn't guide them to a trophy, so you begin to wonder which manager the club is targeting right now to achieve their goal.

Conte was signed to manage Tottenham and at least win them a trophy due to his managerial successes but he’s failed to do so and Conte is widely expected to leave when his contract ends this season, although the club do have an option to extend it by 12 months. The UCL that I expected them to climb to the semifinals considering their opponents form but Conte failed. There have been some suggestions that if results continue to spiral and a top four spot looks in doubt then his exit could come sooner.

I don't think Conte was completely wrong in managing his team. He has given his best even though the results are always unsatisfactory. But that doesn't mean Conte has failed, because if Spurs want something more then why not support what Conte wants? added top and aggressive players in the player transfer market? just look at the condition of the Spurs, where the composition of the players has not changed too much, the front line is still the same, and the defense and midfield have not changed much either.

Therefore, if indeed the ambition to win a trophy is the target you want to achieve, why miss the main thing in the transfer market?

After big purchases and huge amounts of money spent by Chelsea, it is now time to sell some players.
This is the list of players that will be for sale and should leave in the next transfer window:

Pulisic
Sterling
Kovacic
Chilwell
Mason Mount
Havertz

I think it's big a joke if these players will leave Chelsea because they're mostly play as the starting line up for play for complete 90 minutes, it's a huge lose if Chelsea let these players out. Yeah many of them not showing a good performance in this season, but their performance on the previous and few years ago are good enough. At least they can become a substitute player, rather than these players will play on the other club and then humiliating Chelsea.

Mason Mount and Kai Havertz are the most known as Chelsea players.

Players who are too qualified to accept being substitutes.  For Chelsea, it will be a more attractive change to change a manager rather than changing players.  I think Graham Potter has exceeded the time and opportunity afforded to him now.  At the end of the year, I am sure that by keeping these players in the team, they will achieve success again with a good coach and a few reinforcements.

I highly doubt that Osimhen worths 120 million even right now. I am not saying that he doesn't worth anything or something like that, of course he worths a lot of money but not 120, that's just way too much. I understand that we can't expect him to go for 40-50 million neither, that would be too low, but I think somewhere between 80 to 90 million would be the realistic amount for him. Of course some team could go crazy and offer him that much, after all there are plenty of rich clubs in the world, but that would be a mistake if you ask me and that team would have made some big mistake overspending that much.

For what it is and for the current inflation in the transfer market, I think Victor Osimhen is worth the price tag. If Enzo Fernandez, Jude Bellingham are valued for a hundred plus why on Earth will Victor Osimhen who is proven to be a top scorer in the whole of Europe be valued for less.

CHELSEA is one of the clubs that is serious about signing Neymar at this time and also several other clubs in the Premier League. REAL MADRID is at the forefront as one of the clubs intending to sign Kylian Mbappe, even though Kylian Mbappe refused to move to Real Madrid last season. BARCELONA has the opportunity to bring Lionel Messi to Camp Nou, but there is still no certainty about the future of the three players.

Unless Fabrizio Romano has released all three players on his official media page, as most of the news coming from him is more accurate and has some degree of truth to the final result.

I think Neymar would be a good addition for Chelsea who happen to be lacking in some areas of the team and Neymar could offer so much in attack from the left flank, create chances and contribute immensely to the team.

Chelsea got enough money to sign a contract with Neymar for the next season, currently, he is injured and lost the whole season so I don't think Chslea will take a risk and hire a player in this situation even if that player is a superstar player, also Neymar's playing style is a bit different than what's see in Chelsea, I think he even has the chance to return Barcelona for the next season.

The process was quite long and there was not a bit of doubt about Graham Potter. It's just that the last few wins that Chelsea have given Potter the chance to last longer. Chelsea owners don't want to spend money because their share is big enough. As a result, for now there is no information that Graham Potter will really be replaced.

But at the end of the season everything can change and unexpected decisions we may see. By looking at Chelsea's achievements in the Champions League, it will be the result of whether or not the British coach left England.

Every problem that Chelsea is facing today should not be attributed to Graham Potter.
He is not the problem of Chelsea Football Club. And even the Chelsea management knows about this.
Graham Porter was not given the opportunity to have the preseason with the Chelsea team. So it will be so difficult for him to adapt with the current Chelsea squad even when the league was ongoing.
With this new signings of Chelsea I believe that Graham Potter will do even better from next season.

It looks like Lukaku's future isn't bright at all. Because he wants to stay at Inter but it looks like Inter can't afford his current terms again. This means his loan will end and he will go back to Chelsea. However he doesn't seem to be a part of Potter's plans either. In this situation I don't know what he can do. His end at Chelsea wouldn't be different from Aubameyang as he would also wait among the substitutes.

Who knows maybe another decent European team would like to have a deal with him this summer. But I still have doubts about this situation as he isn't able to play like in the past.

Lukaku has 1 year loan contract with Inter and there is no other agreement which mean this is just a one season deal so possibly Inter don't want to bought him this summer and if he return to Chelsea i am sure Lukaku will spend his time on the bench because this is Potter era and there were plenty of players who can played in his position and i am sure he will not into long term plan for Potter and indeed Inter did not refuse the possibility that they would buy Lukaku but he had to prove it to Inter that he deserved to be at Inter and if Lukaku can showing impressive until end of season then Inter might be considering to permanent him

Hiring an injury-prone player is certainly a risky task. Neymar is a superstar player, definitely Chelsea have to pay him heavy wages. After all, a decision that appears promising on paper may not necessarily lead to success on the field. But, I highly doubt Neymar would leave psg until his contract expires. Even if Chelsea would make an offer, they would never be able to match the salary he's currently earning with PSG.

You may have a point, but demands are still demands that Conte has to fulfill as a responsibility of the leadership of the club and if he is not able to give the club what he wants he must be aware of his limits. Tottenham is looking for ways to continue to exist and be in the ideal position to have a ticket for next season. Whereas now Conte is often criticized by his own players, I watched Richalison interview and told the media that he is dissatisfied with Conte and has never given much time to play as a squad.

This season is coming to an end, according to some news sources i read. Rumors say that Inter are not interested in making Lukaku permanent until his loan contract expires. meaning, Lukaku will return to his home club Chelsea. as we know, that Chelsea has several players who have the same position as Lukaku. So, it looks like Chelsea won't include Lukaku in their project next season. but if in the end Lukaku is not included in Chelsea's or Inter's plans, in fact Lukaku will have no trouble finding a new club that is interested in using his services. because, Newcastle and Tottenham are rumored to have an interest in using his services.

However, if, Lukaku can prove his worth for the rest of the season. Several sources reported that there were reports that Inter wanted to keep Lukaku after the end of this season, and Chelsea were willing to accept it. Anyway, so far there has been no official confirmation from Inter or Chelsea. So, Lukaku's future is still an enigma.

You can spend that money to buy another better player like osimhen or gvardiol. Gvardiol has been rumored to be linked with several elite clubs in EPL including chelsea. I think that will better if gvardiol will try to join chelsea. Buying neymar will be adding more problems for the chelsea.
Neymar has passed his prime. No reason to buy him.

The financial problem that has not yet been solved by barcelona has been forcing the club to sell some players including raphinha. Since raphinha will not be included in the starting lineup in the future and his rumor is appearing again. Raphinha is already rumored to be sold by barcelona. Chelsea is still trying to monitor raphinha's situation in barcelona right now.

While Lionel Messi's contract is due to expire in 2023 and PSG are trying to negotiate a contract extension, there are many rumors circulating that Lionel Messi will return to Barcelona. I think there is still the possibility of negotiating a contract extension or going to another club for Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and Neymar.

I don't know if the news is real but regarding Messi, there are two different possibilities for the next season since he rejected to extend his offer for another season with PSG according to some news he is going to return to Barcelona since Barcelona is where he started to shine: https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/lionel-messi-return-barcelona-gerard-pique-incredible-free-transfer/blt987178864af17d1e
But also according to some other news just like Ronaldo, he wants to end his career in Arabian teams to earn more: https://www.albawaba.com/sport/messi-asks-%E2%82%AC600m-accept-move-saudi-arabia-1512026

if Tottenham this year will stop again in 4th place in the Premier League standings, that means they have no progress. It is only natural that Conte is under pressure from fans and also players who are dissatisfied with the results they have had this season.
especially if later Tottenham's position could be taken over by Newcastle or Liverpool. it will be a heavy blow to Tottenham and also to Conte's future there. if they don't progress, some of the previously rumored players might also leave the squad.

Chelsea have never stopped targeting new players and now they are reportedly eyeing Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel in the transfer market next summer. This Swiss goalkeeper has joined Dortmund since the summer of 2021 and the duration of his contract is still long enough until 2026. It seems that coach Graham Potter is not quite satisfied with their current goalkeeper and it is possible that one of these goalkeepers will be sold next summer.

His end at Chelsea wouldn't be different from Aubameyang as he would also wait among the substitutes.

Auba and lukaku gonna be the victims from the scheme that used by potter. Is not it intermilan already clarrified if the club is not willing to extend lukaku's loan? I just read that before in some media.

Even morrathi has been also giving very harsh statement for lukaku

Massimo Moratti had harsh words for his beloved Inter, believing the team are ‘in crisis’ and that Romelu Lukaku is still disappointing on the pitch.

Who knows maybe another decent European team would like to have a deal with him this summer. But I still have doubts about this situation as he isn't able to play like in the past.

Lukaku's future is still uncertain at this moment. Chelsea has been trying to buy a new striker from napoli and that's osimhen. This gonna be another bad news for lukaku. Lukaku is still having a chance to proves his quality during the match against porto

Seems no matter with Real Madrid how much money spent for signing Erling Haaland, maybe still memorize when Real Madrid give offering above 200 million euro for singing Mbappe but not reach agreement after this player extended contract. Due Erling Haaland contract expiry until June 2027 seems not have chance for Real Madrid signing him and Manchester City still not have back up for Erling Haaland position.

I sure Haaland will respect his contract with Manchester City, too early with one years his contract and try to leave team although Real Madrid will give fantastic offering for Haaland. I don't expected with Haaland move to Madrid but more priority want to get another deal with Mbappe and bring him to Bernabeu.

In fact, maybe City will be interested in selling Haaland. It seems to me that he falls out of the City game, although he scores a lot of goals. If you remember, Guardiola kicked Ibrahimovic out of Barcelona (even though he had great stats) simply because Ibrahimovic didn't fit into his concept of the game. Is there any reason why this story cannot repeat itself?

I don't think there is any concrete reason Guardiola asked the club to sell Haaland immediately, he has had a perfect first season off with lots of goals already scored for Manchester City. Haaland goals helped Manchester City win a lot, his playing style almost blends with Guardiola's concept. I don't think cases like Ibrahimovic at Barcelona will be repeated, Haaland has become one of Guardiola mainstay players in the Manchester City squad.

this argument doesn't hold water, its blind to me.  this situation that led to Guardiola selling Ibrahimovic from Barcelona if differ from Haaland model of playing under him. Ibrahimovic was not sold because he was playing out of  Guardiola's concept. it was because of messi they sold Ibrahimovic. Guardiola wanted Messi to be his key striker anf having his good playing time. so he had to chose betwwen them. that is way he sold him and kept Messi. But Haaland situation is no close to the story above. Haaland is in no competition with any striker under pep. and he is performing beyond expectations and i do not think manchester city management will allow Haaland to go. he is complete striker, and fit to any style of play.

Conte is a great manager and if any team thinks that he is the reason why they are bad, doesn't matter which team, then they are making a mistake. There are very few great managers in the world, and if you are lucky to get one of them then you should be happy to keep them.

Spurs doesn't have a great roster these days and that is why I highly doubt that they would be able to actually win anything in the end. Sure Son and Kane are good, they have always been good, but they need something more and bigger than that in order to make a big difference. I personally believe that they will do a lot better in the long run but I do not think that it would be anytime soon.

It seems Conte's tenure is coming to an end I can sense it from the mood and atmosphere at the club. Coming from Inter Milan and seeing how much he achieved there, much is being expected from him at Tottenham but Spurs are still struggling to even stay consistent in the premier league, now this is raising brows and doubts about his capabilities at the club and it seems like he might be opting for a move away.

[emrecemsan]

Real Madrid are increasing their attempts for Jude Bellingham day by day. For now Bellingham is their top transfer target obviously and they are ready to pay whatever amount is needed to sign him in the summer. The speculated amount is 100 million euros plus 40 million euros for bonuses. This would be one of the biggest deals in football history as a result. But it isn't much difficult for Real Madrid to meet this demand as well. They didn't make this kind of a transfer for a long time.

They are already trying to make the midfield as young as possible and they are targeting skilled youngsters. Bellingham might be even the best midfielder in his position comparing to the others at the same age.
