⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Liliana1304]

It looks like Sadio Mane may not play for Bayern this season if Al Ahli's bid for him is accepted. Along with Firmino, the Saudi side is looking to strengthen their side with the likes of the dynamic duo and it would be like a reunion of sorts for the two, also it's looking like Bayern is even looking to offload the Senegalese player who has been regarded as the biggest Bundesliga flop.

I think European football clubs needs to be wary of the way Saudi Arabia is coming for their good players and despite this rapid movement of players, will it be a guarantee that the Saudi league will be as interesting as the European ones?

Sadio still believes he can do better if given the chance but since Bayern has set their sights on Harry Kane, I doubt he'd be given a chance and Al Ahli has offered him a three year deal, same as the y gave to Firmino but the question remains if he will accept.

Al-Nassr has reportedly started making formal bids for Moussa Diaby from Leverkusen and the cost will be around 43 million euros plus add ons. I think he's a talented young player and has a lot of potential to become a great player. I never thought that a young player would also be interested in playing in the Saudi league team. On the other hand, he has also received an offer from Aston Villa and now it looks like Diaby is considering where his future will take him.

Even though Aston Villa started to rise last season in the EPL and it is very likely that they will continue to improve significantly in terms of performance, after that it could become a springboard for Diaby to continue his career at Europe's top clubs. But if he is really interested in making money then at the same time he will end his football career in Europe.

No its not, Arab League will not be the same as the leagues in Europe, even the Asian champions league will not be like the European champions league. I think the Arab League will only be like MLS which is known also buying players from the European leagues. However, MLS still can't seem special even got several star players.

It seems that now the Harry Kane rumors are dragging on,

We've been hearing more and more rumors lately. Because Bayern Munich are slow to sign Harry Kane. There was a lot of talk in the press that Bayern Munich made an 80 million euro offer to Tottenham for Kane. In my opinion, there is not much difference between the transfer fee requested by Tottenham and the transfer fee offered by Bayern Munich. This transfer should be completed under normal conditions. But Bayern Munich are wasting their time bargaining. First, after Lewandowski left the team, they couldn't make a good striker transfer. Harry Kane would be a good striker for them. Secondly, if Bayern Munich continue to waste time in the transfer process, Paris Saint-Germain or Real Madrid can make a sudden move and sign Kane. I think Bayern Munich should be more determined about Harry Kane.

I think the Arab League will only be like MLS which is known also buying players from the European leagues. However, MLS still can't seem special even got several star players.

Of course it will be interesting, but it will not be as prestigious as the Europa League. ideally, the Saudi professional league will be higher than the leagues in Asia with the new arrivals of top European players. the point is, what is Saudi doing in the framework of investment projects and the privatization of sports clubs. from a football point of view, the kingdom wants to promote the development of football in the country. and from the PIF, the point is that the four clubs' acquisitions will open up various commercial opportunities, including investments, partnerships and sponsorships in various sports. to achieve what they planned in the project, they are aware that this project will take time.

but at least, the Saudi Pro League is now known to the world. although not yet on par with the European leagues. IMO, I think what they're doing is just the beginning. maybe, they will do something bigger than that. So, in any case the Saudi League will not be as attractive as the European leagues. in the next 5-10 seasons, this League will further develop. or,..the project they planned failed. to be honest, we don't know for sure. however, it is clear that Saudi trends are currently in full swing.

Well FC Chelsea was buying players like crazy during the winter transfer period of the last season. After that crazy shopping trip they had way to much players in their squad and it was obvious that they had to sell a few of their players in order to get the head count of their players back to a reasonable amount. I think it really is sad for the fans of FC Chelsea that they are not selling players that did not play that big of a role anyway but instead they are selling very crucial players like Havertz and Mason Mount. So looking at the huge transfer activity of FC Chelsea in the last 8 months or so i have to say that i don't really see the squad stronger now than before.

When something changes in a team of about 25 people, the stability is not the same. It is not like there are 10,000 players where someone new has to be intigrated, this change would be easy. But at Chelsea, over 20 new players were brought in the last season, so they changed the whole team. This must be understood that such a team must play a time together to win against the best teams in the world. That they now sell so many players again, I think they will not help. It will take time for the team to form and win many games.

Troubled times for Chelsea. They sold many of their important players to various countries. They sold Kai Havertz to their rivals. It will take time for these players to fill their place. Many players will come and it will take time for the harmony between these players to settle. There was bad management last year, I hope it will be better this year.

Bayern has been increasing mane's price. He was worth €20 million but bayern was increasing his price to be around €32 million. There's no concrete talk was happening between mane and another team. It has been reported by some reliable source if as roma may try to join in competition to get him from bayern. Im thinking about mane gonna have so many offers from the various clubs. That depends on him whether he wants to leave or stay even longer in bayern. I think that mane potentially to go to the al nasser as long as the club gonna try to increase its bid.

There's no concrete news regarding the further development from mane's transfer. Al nassr was trying to talk with him directly but it seems like that mane doesn't give a good signal for al nassr.

The athletic has been also publishing the news regarding him. https://theathletic.com/4706311/2023/07/20/sadio-mane-al-nassr-saudi-transfer/ I think that may gonna stay but that depends on his choice. It seems like that bayern wanna sell him.

Many players will come and it will take time for the harmony between these players to settle. There was bad management last year, I hope it will be better this year.

It's like starting from scratch again, Chelsea have released all their important players and are now filled with new players, new coaches and new team management, of course to achieve success they have to be patient and go through a long process.
Regarding the transfers made by Chelsea it is a bit strange in my opinion, they sold their star players and replaced them with players who in my opinion were not worth it, maybe that's what their new coach wants and we'll have to wait and see what they can do for next season, and I also hope it will be much better than last season even though I'm a little pessimistic.

I'm just curious about Aubameyang's goal if it's just about career or what.
Because if I should be Aubameyang at an old age and choose the last club before retiring I would prefer to go to MLS in the US which can provide more money to be with my family when I retire even though Saudi Arabia also offers a big offer but it looks like Saudi Arabia not a choice.
But I don't know what Aubameyang is thinking instead preferring to go to a French club which may not necessarily be able to provide a bigger salary.
Aubameyang himself is quite old and I don't think Marseille will pay too much because of course after an old age this player's performance will decrease and his contribution will not be too big.
However, it was Aubameyang  decision to go to France for the last time of his career.

The productivity at Chelsea indeed didn't sparkle much; whether it's a matter of squad composition or the English league not being a perfect fit for Aubameyang remains uncertain. Spending three years before retirement, around the age of 37, seems fitting. When one hits 37, contemplating a move to Saudi Arabia becomes more sensible, akin to what CR7 did.

May his performance at Arsenal rekindle the same passion he had while playing in the French league.

Barca are always interested in quality players even when they know it will be impossible for them to get. They want to try every possible to uplift them team back to the way it used to be but to do that you need finance to add high quality players to the team. They should rest for now and focus on building their current players and their academy players instead of trying to acquire players they can’t afford and in the end it may result to salary cut of some players in order to pay the wages of these players.

I agree more with the mindset as you said because at the moment Barcelona finances are really bad and maybe the best way is to improve by recruiting academy players and educating these young players so they can have strong new talents and if that works Barcelona can sell those player and recover their finances for the next few seasons.

Even though in the midst of Barcelona's poor finances, they can still get high-quality players and that proves how serious Barcelona is in preparing a better future. However, the question is are the players brought in ready to survive in the midst of Barcelona's finances like this? they also need to be paid and compensated accordingly.

Depend on how far these players influence the team's performance in various competitions, if they manage to make changes and lead Barcelona to win various competitions then there is no doubt that they can survive and Barcelona have sufficient funds to pay them after winning competitions. But if the opposite happens, agree or not they still have to be prepare to accept the consequences of Barcelona

Diaby is 24 years old and has successful career matches in the Bundesliga. I think he will not go to Saudi Arabia from Leverkusen at a young age. Of course, if the salary attracts him and his thoughts change, it should be mentioned that there is a possibility. My guess is that Diaby will sign with Aston Villa. A football player who can prove his difference in the Premier League.

It looks like your feelings were conveyed quickly and well Moussa Diaby has reached an agreement with Aston Villa as reported by Fabrizio Romano. It seems that he wants to continue his career in European competition and especially in the English Premier League, his performance will often be seen by everyone. Diaby has turned down a huge offer from Al-Nassr and at 50 million euros I think it's a fair price for a player as talented as he is. Slowly but surely he will become a great player someday and maybe if his first season with Aston Villa is so good it can attract interest from some of Europe's top teams.

I don't think I've ever seen a very good transfer from Chelsea either. You have to be pessimistic, of course, look at the transfers of the teams in the league. On the other hand, they will send almost all the players they have from the team. I cannot understand why a team that has been in the championship race for years goes through such a transfer period. I think some things need to be more careful at Chelsea.

Every coach has different tactics as well as the selection of players, of course the coach knows better which players are suitable to be able to apply tactics properly, so far Pochettino has built Chelsea according to his wishes, but from the current list of Chelsea players, many people doubt that Pochettino is able to meet expectations Chelsea fans are returning to their best performance like a few seasons ago, of course for me it is difficult and even in my opinion impossible, everything needs a process and now Pochettino is in the process of being able to bring Chelsea back to where it deserves.

Now Pochettino is in the process of selecting and formulating his strategy to run next season, because he himself knows that his work for the Chelsea team is very difficult because last season Chelsea slumped a lot. And his task for now is to find a more suitable strategy for next season so he can return Chelsea's performance to a better place even though it is not easy for him. So let's see how Chelsea improve next season under Pochettino.

Well, it’s not like the team that they already had was very good and they were getting a good performance from the players. Of course selling the players is not the best move that they probably could have made. The team that they had was really good and incredible. But they were not able to perform well enough. So I don’t think Chelsea actually had any other options that could be better for them. This is obviously not good. What is happening to them but I think this is the move they should make.

Making a team with new players is actually going to be the best decision. Because the players that are already in the club are low on confidence. They are probably not going to be able to provide the performance that Chelsea wants from them. Of course management is also a big issue for Chelsea. They will have to fix that quickly.

Of course, if the salary attracts him and his thoughts change, it should be mentioned that there is a possibility. My guess is that Diaby will sign with Aston Villa. A football player who can prove his difference in the Premier League.

Diaby is one of the best players that Leverkusen has and at the moment there are many rumors that are spreading associated with other clubs such as Aston Villa and even from other leagues in Saudi Arabia.
I consider this news to be unreal because what I know is Diaby has a tough character when he has goals that have not been achieved he will stay so it is not only a matter of money but a career responsibility being a talented young player.
If Diaby only thought about money he would have gone to Saudi Arabia without thinking about Leverkusen but in fact he is still in the bundesliga to this day.
I predict that Diaby will later extend his contract with Leverkusen for the next few seasons and after that will go to the premier league.
By the way if you read the news that is being talked about in some media Aston Villa first bid with €35m after that Villa increased their offer to €50m is it true?
If true, I don't think Villa will let Diaby go now but maybe in the next two seasons.

Good deal for Manchester United, It has been a long time since they had a goalkeeper and Andre Onana is a Goalkeeper who has always loved Manchester United and will do his best to ensure that he wins the competition with Manchester United that Inter Milan failed to win last season despite getting to the finals, which is the champions league. Onana is very composed on the ball and will help Erik Ten Hag achieve his goal of being able to work the ball from the Manchester United goal, to midfield and then to attack.

in this transfer window we saw many players going to saudi arabia, so we can conclude that ronaldo was one of the reasons that made these players more confident to go and play in the saudi arabia league, yesterday Riyad Mahrez signed an agreement to leave manchester city and go to Al Ahli, Manchester City will receive €35m and the contract is until 2027, in my opinion it was a good deal for Riyad Mahrez who has 32 years old and with the end of his contract in 2027 he would have already guaranteed a good retirement

manchester united managed to extend Marcus Rashford's contract to 2028, no doubt that with this move manchester united intends to ensure that Marcus Rashford does not leave the club and manchester united is losing something financially, they know that Marcus Rashford is a very young player, he is 25 years old, maybe they want to make him the next beckham and or rooney who will become legends in manchester united, of course they had some other players, but few players played for manchester united for many years and became undisputed legends and I see Marcus Rashford following this path

Graham potter had the chance and opportunity to reshape Chelsea but failed to deliver ordinary top 6 to Chelsea despite with funds that was made available for him to buy good players, he actually splash money on 5 good players such as Enzo, Mudryk, Madueke and finaly Malo and what did he do with them for all his months of stay in Chelsea, there was nothing to show to the club after emptying the pocket funds that was given to him by the club.

Pochettinno is kind but I'm not too confident in his ability to transform Chelsea but just maybe he is right about sending off all those players that left the club and the ones left will be in good form to pressurise other teams to climb up the table as fast as they can to bring worthy to Chelsea ones again.
