⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Rockstarguy]

Harry Kane is still on Manchester United's radar right now and they seem very serious to make an offer in this summer. It looks like Kane is prioritizing to stay in England right now. This means a lot for Manchester United. Because if he was open to leave the country more than staying then Manchester United would have been in some big trouble. Because Bayern Munich and PSG seem like the other candidates to have plans to sign him. Manchester United would really make use of a top striker like him. Weghorst is a temporary striker for the team now and this would be a big step forward considering the Champions League as well.

Kane's statistics so far with Tottenham have been incredible. Even though Tottenham aren't able to meet the expectations by team effort, Kane is still continuing to score so many goals. He is the most impressive player of his team now.

I think if Manchester United can successfully sign in Harry kane into the club it will be great one for Manchester United for next season, kane is a talented player and have really assisted Tottenham,  kane coming to team like Manchester united will really increase the strength of Manchester United . Presently Harry Kane is top scorer of goals in Tottenham,  Manchester United needs a player like him.  This is will be one of the best signing for Manchester united in the new season.

It's high time that Chelsea must avoid engaging further in trial and error at this time. Premier League is a highly competitive arena, and having a veteran like Pochettino on club would be of great advantage. It's important that Boehly doesn't intervene at every stage of the process, particularly when it comes to player signings. Ideally, a coach should be able to choose players who fit their style of play. Let's hope that Chelsea owner Boehly will refrain from interfering too much with the club's affairs once a new manager takes the jobs.

Chelsea wants to hire Pochettino and you think it's a good idea?
Pochettino is still like a trial-and-error signing. He has a very poor record in all the clubs he has managed. He coached Tottenham and all he could achieve was the top 4. His biggest achievement at Tottenham was getting to the champions league final.
Okay, let's assume it's because Spurs don't have enough good players, he was at PSG and he was very awful there. His PSG team played really bad football. His style made the players all look average, Messi included.
Chelsea should better look for a good manager. They should forget about this premier league experience that they are looking for.

Chelsea has become the one that leads the way to get him. If you were watching any news related to him and you will know if neymar is very close to the chelsea. His agent has been in talks with told boehly directly.

I bring some news

I had mentioned a few months ago about the possibility of Chelsea signing Neymar, and it seems that talks are still going on.
But the newest news, is that Manchester United has been following Neymar's situation and would be interested in the player. It is nothing concrete and there is still no conversation with PSG, but Manchester United should reformulate the attack for next season and some players should leave, having space and money for the signing of Neymar
Chelsea now looks to me like a team with a lot of players and can no longer spend as much as they have already spent

Sources HERE and HERE

So there is a big doubt, and surely other teams must show interest in Neymar.
Which one do you guys bet on for Neymar's next season?

After Casemiro, Harry Kane's joining Manchester United as well can make them be one of the championship candidates next year. Many news I have also read are telling that the Red Devils will try to build a very assertive squad next year. Still it would be a little funny that Kane signs for Manchester United because of complaining about not being able to win a cup.

Maybe we have previously heard about rumors that Barcelona are interested in bringing Aubameyang back to Camp Nou this summer. But it's not just Aubameyang who is being targeted by Barcelona, but there are two other players from Chelsea who are now starting to be eyed by Barcelona, namely Kante and also César Azpilicueta. Actually, from the age of these two players, they are not young anymore, but it seems that Barcelona is more interested in experience and also a fairly cheap transfer fee. Do you think Barcelona will be able to bring in 1 or 2 players from Chelsea this summer?

I just can't understand how Barcelona is going to hire these two players if they have an unstable financial situation and they cannot afford the salary they have to pay for some players like Gavi. I mean the first priority for the team should be keeping the players they have, on the other hand, if they want to hire Messi they will have an even harder financial situation.

I mean the first priority for the team should be keeping the players they have, on the other hand, if they want to hire Messi they will have an even harder financial situation.

With the current conditions, I am actually quite doubtful about the future of Gavi, who is indeed like being tossed around at this time, especially it can be said that his current contract is almost exhausted because their conditions in the previous contract extension were considered canceled and indeed Gavi's current contract is only until June.

As for the purchase of more players, this is clearly becoming a bit troublesome I think because of course with that in their current condition which needs fresh funds around 200 million to balance their books there must obviously be some players released. Even though there are already a few on the list such as Busquet and Alba who don't want to extend their contracts but obviously there must be a few more players sacrificed. But currently there are already some big names that they will bring in without thinking about the current financial condition.

[Captain Corporate]

I guess that having current players sold and new players hired are different finances somehow. I have absolutely zero idea how that works, but if you sell a player for like 80 million, but then hire players for 10-10 each for 20 million, that is somehow better than having 20 million paid to a single guy? After all you are making a bank on the transfer, so you should be just negative 20 million if you keep gavi, but you would be profiting 60 million if you sell him for 80 and get 2 other players for 10 each. That math checks out but to be fair that is not going to really change anything financially all that much since it will most likely not be a front up payment. But in the end, if this works for them, then it works for them, older players but at the end of the day its not going to cause too much improvement long term, Gavi could have been good long term, so this is saving short term for a worse long term yet again.

I bet some players might be willing to take some pay cut if they can play for Barcelona and also considering that both of those two are currently having hard time to start as regular lineup then I dont think this is an impossible move to happen

on the other hand, if they want to hire Messi they will have an even harder financial situation.

Do you honestly think Messi will go back to Barcelona to play for them and reduce his pay cut by tons of it if he can continue to play in PSG? Thats not happening especiall when Messi has nothing more to prove to the world after he won the world cup

They will probably try to make a new contract when the current contract is finished but as you said, it is a little difficult with the conditions they need big funds.
Not to mention that currently there is some news about Messi which is sure to more or less disrupt their financial condition if this really happens in the end.
The best thing is indeed to add a few players but on the other hand we also have to be aware of their current condition which still doesn't allow for that.

[Igebotz]

Whatever happened to Aubameyang, I think he needs a club that will appreciate his services, and this shouldn't be any top tier club as their demands will be so high for him to meet them ,maybe a club like Leicester if they survive the cut will be the perfect fit anything else will just draw him closer to retirement.

I still have faith in Aubu; he was performing admirably under Tuchel before his dismissal caused the entire team to fall apart. Letting Aubu go would be another terrible decision given that the team currently lacks a natural striker. Aubu is a good finisher with pace; what he needs is a coach who has plans for him and who can make the midfield work. I just hope that whoever the new manager is includes Aubu in their plans for the coming season. He can still play top football for two years,  Xavi wants him back, but the decision will be made by the new manager. The only good successor if they decide to let him go would be Osimehn, but I doubt he would leave Napoli for a team without a UEFA competition next season.

Chelsea wants to hire Pochettino and you think it's a good idea?

I don't know what the owners are doing right now, but he seems to be the only viable option at the moment. He is not a serial winner, but he does know how to manage a young team and play good attacking football. At PSG, he struggled to handle the team's bigger players, but no coach has ever succeeded there. He is not my choice, but he is more capable and English league-tested than all the other options right now.

[Pokapoka124]

Messi is an amazing player and he proved it in Argentina and Barcelona but recently he cannot have a good performance in PSG and that's all because of not having to focus and not having a good atmosphere in the team, I think Messi will have a much better performance after the returns to Barcelona where the fans love him and he will have the respect he couldn't have in PSG.

I have to admit that I also doubted his abilities at this stage of his career but he has proved me wrong in the just concluded world cup where he led his team to a successful outing with the right players and the right mentality something that PSG are lacking, the right mentality, I don’t think it’s not fair to put all the blame on Messi for the poor performances of the team. I don't even know why they are putting the blame on Messi like he is the only player on the pitch just the same way Ronaldo was carrying the cross for Manchester United's failure do well in the early parts of the season. I think Messi is doing well at PSG even if he is not at his best but his contributions show that he is crucial to the team's successes.

Am in doubt if Messi will return to BARCELONA. PSG fans may not like him that much which will somehow  affects his performances in PSG, not felling loved by PSG fans can make him leave the club. And his performances will never be the same as when he was in Barca. He was so much loved and his performances were excellent.
But PSG fans are suppose to understand that he ia not getting younger anymore, the strength he had while in Barcelona has reduced to some point so they should just accept it the way it is. His presence alone is a huge positive different in the team

It's possible that the rumors of Ngolo Kante moving to Barcelona are purely speculative, driven by the desire of Barcelona fans. Kante has not yet presented a new contract to Chelsea. However, if Barcelona were to acquire Kante, it would be one of the biggest transfer in the upcoming window because Kante has spent a long time in England and may be ready to explore the possibility of winning titles in other leagues, such as Spain, especially since Chelsea has struggled to secure trophies in recent seasons.

Regarding Messi's potential return to Barcelona, I think the team may be using emotional manipulation on the public. Messi left the team for financial reasons, Barcelona should not try to bring him back to the same problems he faced before, unless they are willing to clearly outline and agree upon contractual terms. This will prevent them from later blaming Messi for not caring about the club, because historically, he has already done his part for Barcelona.

Yes, I think Messi will return to Barcelona because for a player like Messi with the personality he got, that's important to play in a team where he can get the respect he can't get in PSG, sometimes there are many other things more important than the salary he can get, also I think he can get retired like a legend for this team instead of playing in Asian or American teams.

I don't feel that in this case PSG doesn't respect Messi because regardless of any condition he is indeed one of the players who is made like a golden boy there too.
His performance is also still quite decent, it's just that there are still many people who expect too much about better conditions even though it is certain that with this age condition it is a bit difficult to do and the current top assists are actually proof that Messi's performance is very good there.

On the other hand, for Barcelona, they need to make some moves by releasing lots of players to bring in Messi.
It doesn't really matter, it's just that it's a shame if they want Messi, whose time will soon be over at the expense of several young players whose time is just about to grow.

It may be true but Barcelona already has many good players, Barcelona shouldn't rely on Messi again. Barcelona is better to focus on young players. Young players will have a longer future, so it can guarantee for club future. While Messi is already 35 years old, he won't have a long time to play as a professional player. Also, Barcelona still has a financial problem, they may not be in an ideal condition to pay Messi's salary. Another consideration is no guarantee that Messi will play as expected when he returns to Barcelona. He may fail as C. Ronaldo for his return to Man United, I hope Messi better won't do the same thing.

This allows him to become a replacement for Busquets as he is likely to be away from Barcelona for a long time and Kante could be a good option for that position.
But their problem may still be in inadequate financial conditions. the presence of Kante will indeed be a good injection for them in this case but there must be a risk that they have to accept from their current financial condition.

PSG surely have a big respect to Messi. They were on the line right away to sign Messi after seeing him as free agent. Maybe he needed some time to adapt to a completely new team and strategies but PSG officials didn't see it as a problem at all. We have all witnessed how big effort Messi has made so far after starting to adapt to the style of his new team. His contribution level in this season has also been very big honestly.

Xavi says that he would like to have a reunion with Messi if possible but I don't know if this transfer would really happen this summer. Above all else their financial situation will be really important before going for him. Because maybe they can have difficulties again to meet his demands after spending a lot of money on new transfers and salaries. I think it is better to invest into young and talented players for Barcelona.

I mean the first priority for the team should be keeping the players they have, on the other hand, if they want to hire Messi they will have an even harder financial situation.

I think barcelona main option in the next window of the transfer season will let go of some of their players to balance their expenses in paying players wages. Like Franck Kessie and there are several more names that will be released by Barcelona in the upcoming transfer window. I think barcelona is 100% focused on bringing Messi back to Camp Nou and of course this is the main target that Xavi has prioritized.

So, about Kante and Azpilicueta, it is still just a rumor that is not certain to become a reality, but there are many rumours that are developing out there, where the two of them are very much associated with Barcelona. kante and Azpilicueta I think they will be second priority for barcelona in the next transfer window. Indeed, both of them have quite good quality, especially Kante, who can play strongly in building attacks which is very Xavi will really need.

This will prevent them from later blaming Messi for not caring about the club, because historically, he has already done his part for Barcelona.

I assume any new contract with Barcelona will be lower in value comparing to the previous season. Even if they get Messi back, his salary will be way lower than his previous one with the club and lower than the one that he actually receives from PSG. If only money matters for him then PSG is the solution. For Chelsea's players, I think getting them for a low price might be interesting to diversify the team. Barcelona will be forced to reduce the wages of its players or find another way for sponsoring..
