⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

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.

Graham Potter possessed everything he needed to address the club's developmental difficulties; he had both experienced and young players, none of whom added significant value to the team. Graham Potter was one of the most awful tragedies that has happened to Chelsea, bringing the club to its knees in every aspect throughout his tenure. Todd Boehly gave Graham Potter adequate time to develop and rebuild the club into a strong one, but Potter exploited that time to make the club appear average, vulnerable to both top and mediocre clubs. Chelsea fans were heartbroken last season, with no possibility of competing in any tournament other than the Premier League next season. However the new boss is around, Mauricio Pochettino, an eye on him after he won his first game 5 nil in charge as headcoach, more to come.

Barcelona former Jordi Alba have reached done deal for joining with Inter Miami and good reunion because Sergio Busquest and Lionel Messi have been there early. Too early for Jordi Alba ended his career with top Europe teams because Atletico Madrid rumor interest for signing him but his decision for leaving Europe teams due his age still 34 years old. It is possible that there was Messi's influence that made Jordi Alba prefer to join Inter Miami instead of staying in La Liga with Atletico Madrid.

Could be Barcelona mini due starting line up in Inter Miami, there are still has rumor with several barcelona former will join Inter Miami from Iniesta and Luis Suarez. What do you think about Jordi Alba final decision for playing with MLS League? its right choose or not due he has capacity for playing with top European team.

What actually makes you think he will sign with Atletico then have no shot of winning the league as well as UCL ?  Instead of playing in 'top' laliga team like Atletico ( I probably wouldnt say top at all ), his decision on moving to Inter Miami is way better and with Messi around, alot more pair of eyes are going to watch Inter Miami compared to Atletico Madrid so that means more exposure and more money obviously

It was great that they had to let him off his duty before the end of the season, if he still remained til end of the season, we never can tell what number on the standings Chelsea will end up in, they might as well be battling for relegation at the end of the season. Too many expectations from Graham Potter and he failed to deliver and was bringing the club down. I wish they never sacked Tuchel, things wouldn’t have being this worse if he was still Chelsea’s manager.

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.

When building a new team and a competitive one, you don’t need to force anyone to stay with you. Those that want to stay should be allowed and those that want to leave should not be stopped. It was great that he let go off all those players that didn’t wanted to stay back, this will make him have time to settle down and add in more players he feel can be suitable for his strategy.

As far as I know, Barcelona is already interested in him since the last season. But Man City keeps Bernardo Silva, he is an important player for the squad. He still performed well in the last season, no reason to let him leaving. Besides Barcelona may have no money to sign him, Man City seems refuse any offer for Bernardo Silva because he is still a part of Man City plan for the next season.

I don't know what's going on with the player's contract and when it expires, but there were rumours that he might go to Saudi Arabia, he's negotiating and so on. I don't really believe it, of course, because at Manchester City he shows himself very well, but I have a feeling that the right to choose is left to the player himself. Moreover, the reason why the club is not interested in selling the player is that they don't need money, they are doing well, their "business" is perfect

I think Alba could play a few more years in Europe. It was an early US adventure for him. Still, it will be fun for him to play alongside Messi and Busquets. I think his salary will be good enough as well. The USA is already one of the most beautiful places to live, especially Miami. I think they're trying to build an ambitious roster for the MLS title.
Not sure about Iniesta and Suarez. Iniesta was playing in Japan, I follow him occasionally. He's old enough to retire. Maybe he can play one more season. Suarez could play 2-3 more seasons at MLS level. They make a very good squad. People will definitely watch their matches.

“Rasmus is one of the best — if not the best — emerging talent in Europe as a striker”, he told Sky.

Over the years, Joldi Alba has given out his best for Barcelona and has been one of the most consistent full backs in Europe and now that he's moved to the Major League Soccer, I think he better knows his reasons.
Alba is 34 years of age already and definitely wouldn't produce the kind of performances he was known for at Barcelona which is why I think it is a good decision to leave with his head held high

Manchester United management were able to finally secure the goalkeeper that they have had as their choice for a long time now (André Onana) on a long term deal, maybe shortly now it will become the time to shift focus to getting more new players including Ramus. He is a very good striker that has often been compared to Harry Kane at a young age, Manchester United really need a striker and in the next few days should be able to negotiate a very good deal to him bring him to old Trafford, what the club wants.

It's becoming more crazy every day. Here are now rumors that the Emir of Qatar has already given his approval for PSG to make Mbappe an offer of over 1,000,000,000 Euro if he decides to end his career at the club, which would mean he would sign for the next 10 or 11 years as the article says. But to be honest I think that is not even enough money for Mbappe to waste his career at PSG. If they offered Messi 500 million per year in Saudi Arabia, he could also go to Saudi Arabia at the end of his career and probably has more money than signing that contract with PSG now. Billionaires are in the making!

A very strange rumor. Mbappe already earns over 100 million a year, which means that in order to interest him, you need to offer an amount significantly higher than this earnings and which would be able to compensate for the loss of a career/titles in Europe. I would believe it if it was a proposal for a couple of years, but even in this case, Mbappe would hardly have agreed.

Maybe we see Leonardo Bonucci playing for Roma soon After Juvetos said they don't need Leonardo Bonucci anymore and Alegri doesn't want to keep working with his old and experienced defender, Bonucci got many offers, especially from Galatasaray and Fenerbahce. But this 36y old defender wants to stay in Italy and maybe he will join Roma and he can become their next captain and wear the captain armband.

I can't believe it when Juventus and Allegri stated they don't want Bonucci. This is a very bad attitude to show to a player who already played for many years in Juventus. Bonucci is still one of the best defender in Juventus, Allegri must understand about this. Sure, he is already 36 years old, but I think he still deserves to play in Juventus for 1-2 years more.

Well, if there is an offer from Roma, Bonucci is better to move. If I were him, I will have no interest anymore to play in a club that doesn't want me anymore. I support his decision to stay in Italy, he may plan to retire in one of the clubs of Serie A. Roma is a good choice, it is also a popular club and can offer him main position as center-back. Roma has no strong center-back, Bonucci can be a solution for this problem.

So far Chelsea have made good moves in the transfer market. They have sold the players that need to be sold and kept the ones they need. They still have to sell a lot of players though but I believe they will do that before the transfer window closes

I also don't feel confident in Pochettino. I have always had my doubt about him. He was at Tottenham for about 6 years and couldn't deliver a single trophy. A manager with the kind of CV should be very questionable. Although he managed to make Tottenham into a top 4 club, but that was all they managed to be, a top 4 club.
If you argue that Spurs didn't have deep pockets that's why he couldn't succeed, he was also at PSG and even though he managed to win the league there, PSG played the worst football under Pochettino. They lacked rythem and they were painful to watch.
I believe Chelsea will be way better that they were last season but I think they won't make it to the top 4. The top 6 is what I believe they can achieve.

Newcastle United are really surprising me these days, looking back from three seasons ago. Who would have pictured Newcastle United playing innthe champions league but since the takeover by the Arabs, they are not just playing the champions league but they can now attract top names around Europe to join them. This is a good signing for Newcastle and I can’t wait to see the impact he will make this coming season.

Eddie Howe deserves an awful lot of credit for what he has done in Newcastle, i know the club now has a very wealthy hierarchy, but last season they didn't even spend so much but yet they qualfied for the CL, it is signs of good things to come for Newcastle and their fans, and they wouldn't find it too difficult to attract quality players this summer. Tonali is a very good signing for the club and i'm pretty sure there are more players to come, though it would be unwise if they change too much from the team that achieved so much last season, a few additions is enough to complement their success and achieve more.

Honestly looking at how this Newcastle side have been over the years, Newcastle have improved faster than anyone expected under their new ownership and have qualified for the UCL. I have been confident that Newcastle will continue to get stronger and stronger after last season's fourth-placed finish. Now they’re moving like a big club that can attract any type of player and so Howe will be desperate to add as much  as possible depth to his side ahead of their return to the Champions League next season.

That has only happened in the last 2 seasons, it can even be said that 1 full season now and half a season in 2021/2022 but indeed the movement is quite extraordinary for what Newcastle is doing.
But it can also be said that it is natural when a club with large funds, the pressure given to management to make the team's condition better is also getting higher because of course the reason for spending money is also an investment for them to get more things and currently Newcastle is really doing that.
At the moment there are still some gaps that they have to cover to improve the club to be better but I like the strategy that is not in a hurry from them and they start gradually especially for some big players and of course this is a very good thing for the stability of their team.

Newcastle's growth is something that cannot be put aside, yes, I think I'm not the only one who thinks of this, when I was in the U, I don't know if you remember a football movie called "goal "and it appeared and everything was in Newcastle, and they focused on a story similar to what happened at Real Madrid but with Newcastle, from that moment on, although it sounds a bit silly, I started looking for everything about Newcastle, I became enormously interested in everything from that club, but at that time Newcastle did not have the growth that it has now, I don't know if it is because of the arrival of the Arab that made fútbol worthwhile, but this team currently promises , and I want it to do very well , both in the PL like in any competition.

Too early for Jordi Alba ended his career with top Europe teams because Atletico Madrid rumor interest for signing him but his decision for leaving Europe teams due his age still 34 years old. It is possible that there was Messi's influence that made Jordi Alba prefer to join Inter Miami instead of staying in La Liga with Atletico Madrid.

Well, each reason is valid, I for my part think that going to Inter Miami is not bad, what is wrong is that everyone who joins an MLS team ends up with an early retirement, so it is as if a footballer's career ended, on the other hand we can also take into consideration that in the case of Messi everything is different, because he himself said that in FRANCE he had a very bad time when he was at PSG he was not happy, if he went to Saudi football he knew very well that he had to be in constant action In other words, it is not like a retirement, it is something like continuing to build his career, in the USA he saw more peace of mind, he sees that he can have more time with his family, not only because it is the USA, but because soccer is not the same, it is not the same competitive level, it is smoother, he saw all these things, now on the other hand Jordi Alba may be looking for the same thing as Messi.

Saudi football is becoming very dynamic, high-level players are coming, in fact they made a good offer to Gigi Buffon, but he rejected it, what happens is that Gigi is a great goalkeeper, he is a legend, and everyone would like to have him in their team, and since the Saudis do not care about age but about talent and what these players contribute, it is something that they have not been able to obtain.

For me, the Chelsea thing is something very complicated, I couldn't say which is better, if Pocchetino or Potter, I don't know, but in my opinion neither of them is the right one, I think they would have to look for a much more famous coach who has had experience with star players in the same team, that they take a look at the Real Madrid coaches, because if they have a lot of experience with these players, sometimes you can have a lot of quality, but you have to know how to handle them, because They are such good players that sometimes the focus is lost, each one wants to shine in their own light, sometimes they will not adapt to a team game, and that is what the coach has to establish.

I hope Chelsea achieves its direction, because they really need to win, it is a team that last season seemed to me to have spent money in vain, because they achieved absolutely nothing and that was a waste of money, time, everything, this time they have to do things better , much more balanced if they want to get out of the competitions, or at the same time Secure 1.

I would believe it if it was a proposal for a couple of years, but even in this case, Mbappe would hardly have agreed.

Right and I think the interesting part of this article is not the rumor itself, but the fact that we here agree immediately that we have arrived in spheres where a player would immediately reject an offer because it is "only" one billion. I remember the times when I was shocked that a player earned 200,000 a week. Then it was 300,000 a week and the numbers were going up gradually, with some new superstar breaking the record from last year so to say. But now the soccer world is upside down in terms of salaries. Think about those superstars who played in the 90s and who would now agree with us that Mbappe would be stupid to accept a billion when they still played at a time when the Euro was not even existing.

Enjoy the read! It is a NYTimes article from 2001, stating that Zidane earned $5.08 million per year playing for Real Madrid. He would have been one of those guys making 200 million in Saudi Arabia per year.

[CLS63]

Mbappe shouldn't be accepting any offer from a team outside Europe at the moment. It doesn't matter how much they offer to him. He is already making an unbelievable sum of money and there is no player who gets close to him about salary in history. He must have no problem with money from now on as a result.

It would be meaningless for him to give up on all of his chances to win bigger titles and many more times as well just to make even a bigger sum of money than now. His concern should only be achieving more titles from now on. The Champions League title especially.

Real Madrid will most probably be his next team I think.

Being 34 years old and still being a wing-back is quite a difficult task because it is certain that your opponent will have an attacking player with extraordinary stamina and be a very reliable runner. Therefore,  Joldi Alba has a very important task because you have to take care of opposing players who will usually attack through the flanks.

Almost all of us believe that Mbappe will join Madrid in the near future or next season it's just about the right moment
Of course he prefers career over money because he is still young at least for the next 5 years after that career is no longer a priority
What makes us wonder is what PSG will do to overcome Mbappe moving for free of course PSG doesn't want a scenario like this
However they expect something if they really want to let Mbappe go because they also spend a lot of money on it.

We are once again in possession of news regarding Sadio Mane and his transfer to the Arabian teams, according to the report from Lequipe, there was a negotiation between Bayern Munich and Al Nasr, and after this negotiation, Sadio Mane will join Al Nasr and Ronaldo for the upcoming season.
Sadio Mane joined Bayern Munich from Liverpool for 45m and he is a 31y old player right now.

Sadio Mane joined Bayern Munich from Liverpool for 45m and he is a 31y old player right now.

I am very sorry that the situation is developing in this way, but it seems that Bayern Munich has really already given up on the prospects of a player in the team. Although I still continue to believe that it is not worth making far-reaching conclusions based on the results of the first season and Bayern Munich, on the contrary, used to be famous for not making hasty decisions. Also against Mane is the factor that the club has already parted with Julian Nagelsmann, who was the initiator of inviting the player to the club. However, I would not be surprised that the sale of the player is just an attempt to recapture some of the money that the club plans to spend on the purchase of Kane.

Al Nassr needs new players that are on the top level. Currently they are getting beaten by all european teams that arent elite. With Mane they can at least improve their attack. This is also realistic because Mane dosent want to stay in Bayern Munich so i think we might actually see this transfer go through
