⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

For next season, Chelsea will likely direct Frank Lampard to lead this club. Actually, Lampard has a difficult task to finish this season in the Champions League and Premier League. Regardless of whether he will be a permanent coach or just for one season, the club still holds meetings with several other coaches as a long-term option. That is, the task that is carried out by Lampard is very difficult and this is a challenge for him. If successful, he will get the potential to be extended.

Call me a dreamer but I see this going well for Frank Lampard, I love his new mentality, he wants to win something or get Chelsea to a position that whoever takes over will be in a good position to carry the club forward. Lampard qualifying Chelsea for the 2021 champions league season and assembling all the players that played as a team to win us that title under a new manager was the best gift he gave to Chelsea and I see him doing it again. The last time he took the managerial job, he was too young and inexperienced but now he has matured as a coach and if he was to get us into the top 4 or even 5th and also win us the champions league, I won't mind giving him another shot.

Frank Lampard has a mentality of a winner and he can transfer that to the team. Also we might be seeing the best of Mason Mount and then maybe he finally signs the contract and give Chelsea his best years as a footballer. We all know Mason Mount respect Frank Lampard and if he gets an assurance of Frank Lampard getting the managerial job, maybe he'll change his mind of not living the club knowing he has assurance of if starting under Frank Lampard. Also maybe this is just a perfect way to finally say goodbye to Frank Lampard since he didn't get a befitting fair well as a player or manager.

Mourinho was just offered 120 million Euro from Saudi Arabia and yes, I am saying Saudi Arabia because he himself can choose whether he wants to coach a club from the Saudi Professional League or whether he wants to coach the national team. The contract is going to pay him 60 million per season and he is free to cancel the contract anytime or to extend it. He is also free to take the national team to the World Cup 2026. It's absurd how the Saudis can throw around with their money. These sums are insane. I am not very interested to see how Mourinho will react. He has a contract until 2024 with Roma, but guess what, I am sure that if they don't want to let him go, the Saudis are simply going to pay for Mourinho to get the go from the Roma bosses. 

What type of league is this that Mourinho can be offered "manage any team he wants"? Like don't they have team owners or club presidents etc that can decide for these type of stuff. Who pays for Mourinho to be in charge of "any team he wants"? Shouldn't the team that gets him end up paying him, how could they just offer like a blank check to these players and managers, that doesn't make sense at all.

I knew that it was a terrible league, when you watch the games you see that even the stadiums are not that great, and even the jerseys look like a terrible amateur level, they really need to improve a lot on quality. But to the point "you can manage anyone you want"? That's just too much.

I caught some of the news on Youtube and they absolutely want to bring him to Saudi soccer. They discussed all the choices and options that he was presented with from the Saudis. To be honest nothing surprises me anymore. When Messi is supposed to get 400 million after Ronaldo signed for 200 million per year, are you shocked when Mourinho is offered 125 million and gets all kinds of options like becoming the national coach whenever he wants? I believe that is true. They are trying everything to put their puzzle together. They need top players, but now they also need top coaches. From their perspective it makes sense. Money is a great tool as you can see. Imagine you would have asked Ronaldo ten years ago whether he sees himself playing in Saudi Arabia!

Rabiot is rumored to leave Juventus for free if the coach will be someone else than Allegri.
Otherwise, he will stay as a free agent.

Di Maria should extend his contract by 1 year.

[Ryu_Ar1]

Sometimes I feel Todd Boellhy doesn't look into past records before deciding on people to take over Chelsea's managerial affairs. I think he wants to pay more money on terminated contracts. I know vividly well that he's the significant brain behind Frank Lampard's new contract as chelsea supervisory coach.  Lampard may do well during these few periods but his success story may not last in the next season if peradventure his performance in this short period is convincing enough to give him a permanent contract. Chelsea as an elite club needs experienced coaches not the likes of Frank Lampard.

In this case there has been a statement from Chelsea regarding Lampard who will only be an interim coach until the end of the season. this means only to secure how their position is now in the remaining matches until the end of the season.
But even so, this is clearly a job that is actually quite difficult and now the heavy burden is clearly on Lampard's shoulders, because it is not only about the Champions League which they will now face the defending champions but see from their current schedule in the remaining EPL matches that will be passed,


Here there are still several clubs that are very likely Chelsea difficult to win points because the 4 clubs that are now in the top 4 positions they have to face in their remaining 9 matches at the end of this season and this is clear if Lampard fails again then the decision to bring him will also be hated again by the fans like when Todd brought Potter.

[rendravolt]

I have heard some news about Messi that he hasn't decided to renew the enrolment of his children in Paris. This is one of the biggest signs that he doesn't think of staying at PSG anymore I think.

He hasn't been thinking of extending his contract with the team anyway for a long time. His priority still seems to be Barcelona from now on. But in case they don't make an offer to sign him back then I wonder what Messi will think of doing. Would he choose to continue with PSG at least one more year? I don't feel like he would leave Europe soon. Inter Miami are making some attempts to convince him but I don't think such thing will happen yet. I see two options for him which are Barcelona and PSG.

It seems like the biggest chance for Messi's future is to return to Barcelona, only with current finances can Barcelona pay Messi's salary? I think even if the legend comes back it won't necessarily make things easier for the club. Even so, offers such as from Inter Miami or Al-Hilal might be another option that Messi is thinking about in the near future.

Indeed you have bigger dreaming with new Chelsea manager Frank Lampard but we have saw his contribution and experienced before failure not only with Chelsea but also he almost dropped Everton to relegation position before sacking. I doubt with his capacity as Chelsea tactician will be success exactly bring back Chelsea move up to the top fourth position and winning in Champion League match against Real Madrid.

Actually he not as permanent manager for Chelsea because his contribution until at the end this season, Frank Lampard have several games to show about his capacity as good or bad manager for Chelsea. Will have magician with Chelsea performance with several matches left in Primer League and success in Champion League or not any change with Chelsea performance.

[Franctoshi]

That's the problem with Chelsea's Todd boellhy, if he had check out Potter well to know if he is well good for the job, the club would not have been in this struggling till this time. Their are good coaches out there that are good for the job to build the team. I just hope Frank Lampard will do as coach of Chelsea, I see him as a man that has so much love for Chelsea,  with this I'm sure he will be able to serve the club well and give his best.

Calling Frank Lampard back to be in charge of the club until Chelsea have come into taking a clearer decision upon whom they will appoint to manage the club is a good one for the club and for Lampard, and it will also serve as a second opportunity for Lampard to correct some of his mistake which led to his then sacking when he was first appointed Chelsea manager. I believe his passion for Chelsea could take him to a new highs in his managerial role at Chelsea if he lives up to expectation.

Lampard was appointed interims coach because Chelsea have yet to find an ideal coach for a long-term contract.
I agree Lampard deserves a second chance, but he has to repay the team's faith by making the team perform better than the previous coach. Chelsea are good team based on the individual qualities of their players but so far they lack direction mainly because Graham Potter has fallen short of expectations.

So I'm really curious about Chelsea's performance under Lampard this week. Chelsea will travel to Wolves, this will prove to Lampard that he is the right coach for Chelsea right now.

Messi's contract with PSG will expire at the end of this season. I think Messi would have extended his contract by now if he wanted to stay at PSG. Also, he won every trophy he could win. I don't think he should have too many career goals anymore. Maybe he can respond positively to the Arab interest in him to earn a little more money. On the other hand, Barcelona fans cheered in favor of Messi in yesterday's Copa del Rey semi-final. If he goes to Barcelona, he will meet again with thousands of football fans ready to adore him. Messi has two choices, money or loyalty.

Messi hampered in accepting a new offer from PSG is none other than because PSG has lowered the salary for his new contract. Of the other options, maybe Messi is more interested in seeking a challenge at his new club in the next summer transfer window. Even returning to Barcelona could become a reality because Barcelona is very focused on returning the star when Messi is on a free transfer. Moreover, Messi has given a signal that he wants to remain in Europe even until the end of his career in football.

But it is a little surprising that messi refused quite a lot of money from Al-Hilal offer because if he reaches an agreement with Al-Hilal then he will again break the record as the highest paid footballer.

A temporary solution is better than none or some for which you then have to pay a lot of money (termination of the contract).
There are rumors that Nagelsmann will lead the team in the summer, and now he wants to rest until the end of the season (or just does not want to get under the Real Madrid ice rink). But there are also rumors that PSG also want to sign Nagelsmann. Will he, like Mbappe, negotiate for himself the best conditions from two rich clubs? Cunningly!

It's crystal clear that Chelsea needs a manager that can turn the fortunes of the club around, wether temporary or permanent but I don't think that Frank Lampard is the best available man for the job. Julian Nagelsmann would've been a better option or they would've gone for Zinedine Zidane or any other high profile Manager that's available but they went for Lampard that was easy to approach and negotiate with. Todd Boehly got it wrong by sacking Thomas Tuchel last year and he'll always regret that decision till when he get a better replacement

Let's see how it all ends up in the end. Maybe City will go to the Championship, Guardiola will be sacked and Chelsea will intercept him  Or Chelsea can somehow convince Zidane to move to the Premier League (no less fantastic). At the moment we don't know Chelsea's goals so we can't fully assess their actions.
As for Tuchel, I think Boehly will never remember him - for him it's just business. If the employees do not give results, he changes them. Someday the kaleidoscope will form into the correct picture.

Guardiola knows his way to winning the Champions League but this time they are going to face Bayern Munich and there is Tuchel coaching that team who is experienced in the champions league hiring Tuchle was a wise move for Bayern Mucnich to play against Manchester City with better shape than before. However, this can be very hard to predict for anyone.

[kawetsriyanto]

Franck Lampard is a legend in Chelsea and even during the time when he was a player in this team he had a good performance also as a coach is suitable for his team because they can't have enough time to hire another coach, however, it was a big risk for Lampard to work in Chelsea because they don't have a good situation there is a possibility for them to even fail with their coach, Frank Lampard.

Frank Lampard is a Chelsea legend as a player but it doesn't mean he will automatically be a good manager. Not every player can be a good manager when they retired from a professional career as a football career. There were many good players who failed to be good manager because being good managers require a lot of time and experience. That's why I have a bit doubtful about Lampard, not sure how well he can manage Chelsea in the current situation. I just hope that Lampard can improve Chelsea position at the top 8 at least.

 I think he will stay until summer when they will get a proper replacement. Lampard already had an episode in Chelsea but it didnt end well but i think now they cannot do worse. The season is already over for them they just need to play it off until the end and make plans for next season

If I still recall very well, you were very positive about him managing Chelsea when he was first appointed. Let's hope he doesn't disappoint you. As for me, All coaches originating from England are pretty bang average, and I see things not going well with Chelsea in the long run.

Lamps was a good player, but I don't think he will achieve a lot in his managerial career. Let wait and see how the next few games will go for him and Chelsea.

With Messi coming to the Arab League, this is very interesting, many are looking forward to them, Ronaldo vs Messi will compete again.

https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1643325640727310338?cxt=HHwWhMC9ndX9oc4tAAAA

I did saw this transfer update from Fabrizio Romano and I must say a $400M/year deal is quite a tempting offer from Al Hilal. When Al Nassr came for Ronaldo, I was among those that never thought he would accept the offer because his quality hasn't declined, but he did. With this kind of offer on the table for Messi, he might want to consider it, considering the fact that PSG is not interested in renewing his contract or what they are offering is not appealing to him. Though, Barca is still in the picture but I doubt if they are ready to offer close what Al Hilal is offering.

[X-ray]

Guardiola knows his way to winning the Champions League but this time they are going to face Bayern Munich and there is Tuchel coaching that team who is experienced in the champions league hiring Tuchle was a wise move for Bayern Mucnich to play against Manchester City with better shape than before. However, this can be very hard to predict for anyone.

It will always become so difficult for Guardiola to win UCL. The way for guardiola to win UCL is pretty small right now compared with italian clubs caused by guardiola was in a group of strong teams. Im still seeing chelsea as a strong team caused by this team was also winning UCL two times.
Chelsea can't be underrated as well. Tuchel is managing manchester city now and there was also cancelo on the bayern. that will help bayern to know what kind of playstyle was very often bring brought by pep with his team. There is also a weakness spot that is owned by manchester city.

I think that tuchel has a way to stop haaland's movement. Bayern munchen is also having good records against haaland. As bavarian and I think that there's no thing that needs to be worried. Manchester city may not able to go to the next stage after the match against bayern. Haaland was just recovering from his injury. he may not able to fully perform for city against bayern. I don't even think pep wanna try to take the risk by using experiment match like the previous match against leipzig.

We did see how pep was making an experiment by keeping using the same players instead of changing some for full time. Bayern is very strong.

[herurist]

It's really quite crazy for the Arab league right now, if this works then it's another burn of money for them but indeed in this case there are other advantages of course so indeed they won't regret offering that price. Now it remains to see whether PSG and Messi will budge at this price or not.

This is a piece of fantastic news from the old player, we know since Ronaldo goes to Arab, many speculation news about the old player who will follow him. And Messi is one because when we compared him with Ronaldo, Messi is a player who is suitable for him. If this happens, Messi is one player who has the highest salary in the world, I heard an Issue, al Hilal will pay him 2x from Ronaldo's salary. So, Messi hasn't thought more, let's sign the contract ASAP before too late.

He would even go back to being the highest paid player of course if this were to happen. But on the other hand, we still cannot confirm this and indeed we still have to wait for the continuation of this matter.
But on the other hand, after Ronaldo and now Messi, it is quite clear that the Arab League will be increasingly eyed if the two goats return to compete there for different clubs.

[Asiska02]

Even if Lampard doesn't make it, this means he'll only get that short-term termination, but I think he'll stay until the end of the season. There is a chance that Lampard will stay if in fact Chelsea can get in good form for the rest of the season.

That should be the only reason for him to stay and make his appointment permanent if he is given that offer at all. Some opportunities come only once, but others return even when you least expect it. Frank should show that he can do it better than Graham, even if he failed the first time. Fans and team managers alike will be hoping for a prosperous period with Frank Lampard until the end of the season.

But it is a little surprising that messi refused quite a lot of money from Al-Hilal offer because if he reaches an agreement with Al-Hilal then he will again break the record as the highest paid footballer.

since messi left barcelona for PSG he realized that he was not the same at PSG, on vacation he was going to spend in the city of barcelona, so this clearly showed that he only went to PSG because he had to continue playing and earn money but being in europe is in a good team, but he is still interested in being at barcelona and that is understandable because he played at barcelona for many years, it is difficult for a player who stays in a team for more than 10 years to leave and get used to another team, messi he is argentinian, in barcelona he speaks spanish and has almost the same customs as in argentina, messi being there in barcelona did not have much difference with being in argentina

now in france the situation is quite different, in france it is another language and customs not to mention that it is a totally different league in the sense that PSG doesn't even have a rival and has no opponent like in spain where they have real madrid and barcelona that are rivals and fight for the title, in france there is only PSG to fight for the title, as for saudi arabia, honestly i believe that greed is a big bad thing, the most important thing is not to earn a lot of money in saudi arabia, the most important thing is to play in the good club that the player loves and being in a competitive league that when he retires will be well remembered, messi should retire at barcelona

Rabiot is rumored to leave Juventus for free if the coach will be someone else than Allegri.
Otherwise, he will stay as a free agent.

Di Maria should extend his contract by 1 year.

He is Allegri mainstay in every game, so it is no stranger to Rabiot wanting to leave if Allegri is not the Juventus coach next season. But as a matter of fact we see that Allegri has brought big changes to the progress of Juventus, I'm sure he will stay at Juventus next season, I even think he will succeed in persuading Rabiot to stay at Juventus. Allegri doesn't have big problems with his players so he deserves the chance to stay with Juventus even there are no rumors he will be sacked.

Di maria deserves a contract extension for next season because this season he has managed to show a big contribution to juventus at a time when juventus was in a downturn but di maria presence was able to give positive nuances in every game they played, especially in the europa league.
