⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

And the more important problem is that you need to find an outstanding coach who is willing to manage a team that does not play Champions League. That is a huge issue for Chelsea. I read that Nagelsmann was already there, but in Nagelsmann's case it makes more sense to wait and see if another Champions League club wants him. It could be Real Madrid, it could be Barcelona, the incentive to sign a contract with Chelsea right now is not that high unless the salary is unprecedented.

Chelsea Job needs a Manager who does not believe or depends on their past history, or be treathened by their current poor situation, or reject it because they didn't qualify for next season's Uefa champions / Europa League. All they need is a Manager who will focus on the club goals, that will try his possible best to bring back the club to its position, although it looks difficult on this time because many managers will be scared of their club and fans high expectations. Looking at the club current situation, it need both players and other technical coaches to sit up and put in their best in the coming season to enable the team meet their goals.

This is easier said than done. When you have a squad full of superstars, you can't just sign "any" manager who wants to achieve the club's goals. They did that with Graham Potter and PSG did that with Gaultier. But these guys are not qualified to lead a squad with such big names on the team, you need someone who has experience working with stars and who has won something before. Otherwise it is difficult for the coach to get the respect he might deserve and that is where everything falls apart when the team starts badly into a season.

PSG doing extremely spectacular in their domestic league, the only problem they're facing is they can't record good performance in other top Competitive league like UCL. Chelsea is terrible at the moment, it's very sad to see an elite club. Crumbled in league games both in EPL and UCL. Graham Potter took the whole team backwards and Todd Boehly always have fate that the mediocre coach will turn the team around, but that was on his wrong watch. Chelsea needs an experience coach, and also good chemistry with the players, only then they can perform highly in league.

In fact, the bad phase that Chelsea faces this season seems to have no end, the defeat to Brighton by 2 to 1 proves that the team is digging its hole more and more, where it should be buried soon.
Chelsea are in a difficult situation in the UEFA Champions League, they needed to reverse a two-goal deficit to advance Real Madrid, but it was predictable that this would not happen.

Now, there are only a few weeks left until the end of the season, although it is not one of the best for Real Madrid either, it could be much worse. It is now necessary to urgently resolve the renewal of some players like Benzema, Modrid and Kroos.

I just watched an interview with Thiago Silva that was made after their loss against Real Madrid yesterday in the Champions League. In that interview he said that the current direction and strategy of FC Chelsea to just keep on buying new player is completely wrong and that they are now having 30+ players in the squad and therefore a lot of players are very unhappy with their current role in the team. I totally agree with his statement and with his opinion. I think that everyone should know by now that just buying good and expensive players will not guarantee success. This is also pretty obvious if you look at Paris Saint Germain and what they have spent for players without winning the Champions League even once.

Thiago has been saying right point about chelsea. That’s why management already planned to sell so many players in upcoming season. Some players that may be leaving from the club in summer.
1. Ziyech
2. Mount
3. Pulisic
4. Kovacic
5. Havertz


I think that more players will be added. So many players were just making the club become even more difficult when determining ths starting line up. I have ever heard that potter was also making the same complain as well. It’s the time for chelsea to let so many players going out from the club in summer. Chelsea may also get sanctions when the club refuses to sell so many players due to the ffp rules.

As reported by Fichajes, the four Chelsea players that Real Madrid are interested in signing are Reece James, Mason Mount, Mateo Kovacic and Ruben Loftus-Cheek.

https://therealchamps.com/2023/04/19/real-madrid-four-chelsea-players/amp/

There will be massive paycuts to happen with chelsea’s players. This will be also increasing the interest to leave from the club. Todd boehly as owner from chelsea being so mad.

[CryptocurencyKing]

It looks like there is a possibility for Jose Mourinho to become PSG's next manager in the summer. It is a speculation for now of course but I wouldn't be surprised if it happens as well. Galtier is most likely to get sacked by the end of the season before anything else. This would be the right thing to do for PSG as well of course. Because it must be obvious that he doesn't have a good chemistry with this team. This led them to be eliminated in the Champions League quite early at the same time.

In addition to that I've been hearing about news like Galtier might get prison sentence due to using bad language to the Muslim players in the squad. This can even affect his general career really badly. We would find out the result about this situation soon I guess.

The search for Christophe Galtier’s replacement on the Paris Saint-Germain bench appears to be underway already. However, I have a strong feeling that Mourinho would be ready to leave AS Roma to pursue another challenge at the highest European level. Recently he’s been linked to Chelsea, Al-Nassr and PSG but only certain clubs would get him to move on from As Roma, with whom he is under contract until 2024. PSG won’t be a good move, considering the demanding nature of the club and how they don’t have a good football model.

[GiftedMAN]

Rumors spread that Vincent Kompany is on the list wanted by Chelsea to be the next manager at this club besides names that have already been linked with Chelsea such as the former Bayern Munich coach and former Tottenham Hotspurs coach Pochettino. It seems that Boehly was impressed with Kompany after what he did for Burnley who will return to playing in the English Premier League next season, but it is possible that Kompany will not be interested in Chelsea because even though Chelsea already have a lot of good player material, uniting them into a strong team will be more difficult.
https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/22061762/chelsea-vincent-kompany-burnley-new-manager/

I don't think Boehly has learnt Andy lesson from his time at Chelsea. As a club, Chelsea shouldn't even be looking at the likes of Pochettino and Kompany. Kompany has done well with Burnley, but so did Potter with Brighton. Pochettino is a manager that has not really achieved anything significant in football. He was good at Tottenham but couldn't give them any trophy. He got to PSG and his team was awful. Why will Chelsea be looking for a manager with such a bad CV?
At this point Chelsea should be looking for a manager that can bring results by winning trophies or a manager that can rebuild a team and play good football even  if they don't win trophies next season and neither Kompany nor Pochettino is any of those.

I guess Boehly isn't going to think of bringing the the players turned coaches that is listed here because if he does then they should consider losing all he has spent to purchase the close because they valve of Chelsea will be so down. What Chelsea need now is a manager with good CV not just CV but a manager that has proven record of number of trophies won. I don't think the former Manchester City player now coach Vincent kompany can bring back the old days of Chelsea because he got Burnley promoted to the premier League with in a season. Getting pochettino as a manager too is not necessary because he spent years in England without achieving any trophy Chelsea need now is a coach like the Manchester United coach that is doing a great work and the club already or they should just go and bring back Thomas tuchel to the club. The club needs to rebuild the team and thst will only be possible with a good manager that will change the mind set of the players and coaches that can do that is well known not the names that has been rumoured here as a possible replacement for Lampard.

1. Ziyech
2. Mount
3. Pulisic
4. Kovacic
5. Havertz

Mount, Pulisic and Kovacic are good players, they can still play for Chelsea. Potter and Lampard were just focus to use new players they currently have, they not believe with the players of Tuchel's pick when he was still manage Chelsea.

Ziyech never play anymore and he's not that good, Havertz doesn't have a stable performance.

[tusandii]

-snip-

I don't think Chelsea has any problems with the players they currently have, I mean they can hire better superstar players and there are some players linked to this team like Barella, Páez, and Matos but I don't think even if all these three players will help this team because Chslea needs better coach than Lampard and then they new coach should start seeking for better players.

Yes, that's why I said that Chelsea don't really need players at this time. What Chelsea needs more is a coach who can use Chelsea players to bring Chelsea to become a strong team like a few years ago.
In these 2 seasons Chelsea has had problems in having a coach so management must prioritize finding a better coach instead of recruiting new players.
I agree with you that when Chelsea will have a better coach then they can recruit some star players to strengthen their team.

Seeing Kovacic on the list of players to be sold would make Thomas Tuchel finally smile, he's already on the list of players Bayern Munich wants next season. As for Mason Mount, I still feel like he has unfinished business with the club. He won't be going anywhere.

A good coach would play Kai Harvetz behind the striker, from day one that has got to be his best position, not as a striker or false nine, besides,he's too dull for that position, he's also no fighter. ( Ohh, I miss the General! Diego Costa )
Ziyech wanted the exit during the transfer window but Chelsea signed those papers to clear him off late. As for Pulisic, he can still do some decent attacking job for Manchester United he's such a brave player who needs a good coach backing him up.

As long as PSG will be agreed to sign him and i think that mourinho will be flying to the paris to sign a contract with PSG. Galtier is not giving good result.

The latest news said that if galtier is being investigated by police.

Sir Dave Brailsford is expected to be interviewed as a witness by French police investigating allegations that the Paris Saint-Germain head coach, Christophe Galtier, made racist comments while manager of Nice.

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/apr/19/police-investigating-psg-christophe-galtier-alleged-racism-expected-to-interview-sir-dave-brailsford

It seems like for me mourinho has biggest chance to become the next coach for PSG.

According to RMC Sport, Paris Saint-Germain have set their sights on Jose Mourinho and want to tempt him away from Roma.

https://football-italia.net/psg-reportedly-courting-roma-coach-mourinho/

The special one is the most suitable coach for PSG right now. I think that he will be doing an overhaul to the club. The special one will be facing sergio ramos as well. It will be so good for the special one to become PSG's new coach.
It's caused by he has good credibility as football manager. Mou has been known as world-class manager too.

I don't know how Kovacic in the name list player for selling upcoming season because he always get regular position exactly with new scheme under Frank Lampard, for Ziyech, Mount, Pulisic seems has chance for selling because they are unhappy with situation right now without get regular position exactly with Mount have announced about he will extended contract with Chelsea.

Graham Potter ex Chelsea manager seems problem why many player list for Chelsea right now, substitute rooms seems not happy because many player not get regular position but management keep extended him without give chance for getting minutes playing. Right now waiting with new manager and which one player will sack or extended for upcoming season.

[Strongkored]

As for Mason Mount, I still feel like he has unfinished business with the club. He won't be going anywhere.

Liverpool are reportedly one step away from getting this attacking midfielder, and it has been in negotiations for a long time after Mason Mount has not yet extended his contract at Chelsea because he wants the club to provide a higher salary than before, moreover Liverpool have said they will bring at least 2/3 of the players the middle of their squad for next season, especially with Chelsea's condition which is worse than Liverpool it is very likely that he will choose to leave to get more playing portions that he does not get at his current club.

A good coach would play Kai Harvetz behind the striker, from day one that has got to be his best position, not as a striker or false nine, besides,he's too dull for that position, he's also no fighter. ( Ohh, I miss the General! Diego Costa )
Ziyech wanted the exit during the transfer window but Chelsea signed those papers to clear him off late. As for Pulisic, he can still do some decent attacking job for Manchester United he's such a brave player who needs a good coach backing him up.

Constantly changing strategies make many players who were previously performing well look bad as they are often left out of the main roster due to these changes. What Chelsea needs now is an experienced manager who can repair all the damage that has occurred at least this season.

[masulum]

If i am not mistaken this summer his loan contract will be ended but Milan want to hold and permanent him because during this 3 years he has giving good contribution for Milan and actually Madrid were don't mind to release him even the latest news is Madrid already provide price tag for him approximately 25 millions but with the current financial of Milan i think it's very difficult to buy him but luckly Brahim Diaz has confirmed to considering the offers from Milan as his high priority because apparently he felt to comfortable to playing at this team

But i think Milan should be immediately to permanently him because if Milan doesn't looks too serious for this transfer then i am sure Arsenal or other teams possibly can hijack Diaz especially with his quality Diaz has cheap price

Yup, this season the loan contract for Diaz will end, but there is no action from Milan to extend his contract so far. Maybe Milan will start making offers when the transfer market started. If Pioli stays at AC Milan to coaching rossoneri next season, it is likely a permanent extension or loan extended will be made by Milan. However, in other news, Madrid will include Diaz in the Jude Bellingham transfer process.

@CryptocurencyKing I don’t think PSG is a project that Mourinho will like because the league is too easy, and secondly he likes to dictate his player’s but at PSG the coach will have to consider all demands of Mbappe hence he definitely won’t come to PSG. Lastly I feel that Carlo maybe available, because he’s already lost the league title and if Real don’t win the champions league then he’ll definitely be sacked at the end of the season and he would be an excellent appointment in my personal opinion.

Rumors of Messi return to Barcelona have become even louder, reported by several media after the player was not willing to extend his contract with PSG. Messi is reportedly close to reaching an agreement with Barcelona, so far Barcelona has done everything possible to realize their dream of bringing Messi back to Camp Nou.

Barcelona has prepared a salary and contract duration for Messi. The presence of Messi in the Barcelona squad will further add to the banging power on the front lines. Even though he is 35 years old, he can still be relied upon on the front lines because apart from being good at scoring goals, he is also very active in contributing assists to his teammates.

Even though rumors of Messi's return to Barcelona are getting louder, Barcelona still have to improve their financial condition which is still unstable. Barcelona must immediately move quickly to improve financial conditions to realize Messi's return to Camp Nou.

Messi's situation with PSG is increasingly making him feel uncomfortable with the Paris city club and indeed these rumors appear almost every day on social media. But I think the decision is still in Messi's hands whether he is willing to return to Barcelona or not, even though I also heard that Barcelona will look for additional costs to take care of Messi's salary every week.

On the other hand, if Barcelona are still constrained by financial matters, then their only way is to harm other Barcelona players by cutting wages to be given to Messi later. Of course, we have often seen this in the Barcelona chart and it seems that they don't care about the fate of other players.

In football Jose Mourinho is known to be a lover of new challenges and he loves to break dreadlocks of any club he's managing and his past records clearly states that he succeeds wherever he goes. Jose Mourinho is a UEFAChampions League winner and he's well experienced manager when it comes to the competition.
Paris Saint Germain has spent so much on players acquisition over the years in their search to lift club football's most prestigious trophy and since Zinedine Zidane isn't showing signs of signing for the club as their new manager, Jose Mourinho I think will be a perfect match to actualize the club's biggest dream

[Bananington]

1. Ziyech
2. Mount
3. Pulisic
4. Kovacic
5. Havertz

These players need to leave for the new players that Chelsea has spent a lot of money to get have the opportunity and chance to grow into their responsibility in the club. Next season will be a big test for Chelsea to try and finish in first four especially as top four fight has increased with teams like Newcastle predicted to do even better next season with some few key signings. Chelsea will need to ensure they get their coaching option right and get the team together. Since they will not be playing in any other competition next season, they are in a position to focus all their energy on wining the premier league.

[shogun47]

Newcastle already have some targets in their list now as it seems. In addition to Declan Rice they have other targets like James Maddison and Ivan Toney also.

It doesn't look like their job will be easy with signing Rice according to my thinking. Because he is monitored by Arsenal also. If they also make an offer to sign Rice then I think they would be one step ahead of Newcastle. I know Newcastle are richer than them now. But as long as they don't spend much more money I don't expect Rice to sign for Newcastle instead. As for Maddison he can also be targeted by some other big teams also. But maybe Newcastle would have the biggest chance for Toney.

This is Eddie Howie plan for next season that he want Newcastle filled with world class players more than now and that's why he was targetting these players for this summer especially if Newcastle can able to managed their performance until end of this season and playing at champion league i am sure they will be required more players into their squad

Maddison is their previous target because last summer Newcastle has been bid this player 50 millions and Leicester has been refused that offers and Maddison stayed at Leicester but the current situation will be different because reported Maddison has refuse contract extension which is offering by Leicester so this summer he more likely will leave Leicester especially if Leicester to be relegated i am sure he doesn't want to playing at championship division

And for Ivan Toney he actually Newcastle former player but indeed since joining with Brentford Toney has reach to his top performance with scores 18 goals in premier league until week 31 but the speculation about his future still uncertain and probably Bentfrod won't let him easily to leave and Declan Rice could be Newcastle the most expensive recruitment this summer because his price not less than 100 millions but it's hard to gets him because he is into radar to several big teams

For real, Eddie Howe's plan for next season is spot on. If Newcastle wants to make waves in the Premier League, they gotta have a crew filled with elite players. And when it comes to elite players, Neymar would be a game-changer for the team. I know it's gonna cost a pretty penny to snatch him up, but if they can afford it, why not go for it?

Plus, if Neymar does end up wearing the black and white, that's gonna draw in a ton of other players too. I mean, who wouldn't want to ball out with one of the top dogs in the game? And like you said, cash ain't an issue for these players if they see the chance to link up with Neymar.

But obviously, they can't just put all their eggs in the Neymar basket. They need a dope crew with cats like Maddison, Toney, and Rice. Those homies would be a huge get for the squad and could help Newcastle contend with the best of the best

Hmmm.... this one is a bit more difficult. As much as I like Neymar's outstanding dribbling qualities, as much do I hate his mentality and susceptibility for injuries. Also his arrogant attitude that he can't manage to back up with constant performances like Ronaldo used to. He is permanently injured, frequently takes a dive and doesn't like full contact sports (which Premier League soccer is). Additionally, I have always had the feeling that once Neymar was able to sign these huge contracts with PSG, he lost his drive that he used to have as a younger player. He could still be a great addition, but I have my doubts that when a player has trouble establishing himself in Ligue 1 and is nonstop crying about players attacking him so hard in that league, how is he going to handle the heat in the Premier League? He is used to Spanish and French soccer, this is a different category and I am sure that PL defenders are only waiting for him!

Ziyech never play anymore and he's not that good, Havertz doesn't have a stable performance.

Mount is not a good player. He's an overrated English player. If we are been honest he should be playing for a team like Everton or West Ham.
Pulisic is good but is injury prone and he can very inconsistent. He will explode in a match today and hide in the next game. Chelsea don't need a player like that. They need a world class, fit and consistent player in that position. Even Sterling should be sold. Kovacic is another player that is similar to Pulisic. Inconsistency and injuries are his major problems but he's good and in my opinion should remain in Chelsea for another season.
Ziyech and Havertz can be sold.
