⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Velvet78]

Roberto Firmino is said to have an intention to leave Al-Ahli these days. Fulham are rumoured to be interested in him as well. Other than them I have heard of some Turkish teams having an interest in signing him too. I think his first choice would be to return to the English Premier League. Because he can make more money there than he can in Turkey and he is already very familiar with the league. 

I thought he shouldn't have left Liverpool in the first place but of course he must be earning much more money there. But I mean he was doing quite okay at Liverpool and performing even better than Nunez.

Exactly why coaches sometimes have a very different position from their players now, it is much better for those coaches who have been soccer players, because they understand that they cannot teach technique to them, they only know the way to do it. They look after the players and they want to attract them so that they do their job according to their direction. In the case of Mou, he understands this very well, in fact he has always expressed what I am saying, because there are many who want it to be get in and play, for example a very clear one is ten Hag, he wants all his players to play as he says so even his technique, but this is not like that, but for me that is a failed coach, the fact that he also He got involved with a star and leaving it on the bank is something that only he would do, a star is for use, not to make her feel lesser, these are things that I will never understand, now the case is completely different CR7 is triumphing and Ten Hag is sinking more and more.

So it is very different from buying with technicians like Ancelotti, who is doing very well with Madrid, with Zidane, who was a great example winning many things, the current clear example of a Xabio Alonso who is doing wonderfully, for He is a player and an example coach, because what he is currently doing in Leverkusen gives a lot to talk about correctly, he is a coach who is very good, in fact he is winning and it is probable that he could win the Bundelsiga, that is something that speaks very highly of him and can always make a difference, now a technician who I see something wrong is Xavi in Barcelona, I was recently reading an article where they told him that if he didn't do something that could give him titles on a large scale Very good, but he was no longer going to work with them, and it is complicated, because despite the fact that he is in a very good position, he is losing a game that he should not lose.

Well coaches who’ve been soccer players still perform poorly and it’s quite worrisome but that’s a story for another day. I think our focus today’s on a coach’s philosophy and how he tries to manage his players and make sure he’s carrying everyone along knowing that we can only have 11 players on the field of play. This factor is what makes Ten Haag seems like a failed coAch because he’s had issues with most of his players and most times those rift result in them losing some matches. A big case is that of Ronaldo, I think after the whole criticism on his age and all, we can see Ronaldo flourishing in Saudi and leading on the list of go scorers and yet Manchester United struggle to get points to remain valid in the league.

 The likes of Ancelotti and Zidane are clear examples of coaches with the right philosophy and another sweet example of a good coach with right teachings is Xabi and his Leverkusen side. The fluidity in the team is top notched, he’s managed the full team for a season and half and yet no rift with a player to affect team’s performance.

Exactly, in fact I believe that when things are about Ten Hag they become an imminent problem, or that he thinks he is doing things well, but I really admire his talk to still stay on the same page, I don't know what so many things You can tell the owners of Manchester that they are still there, one thing is that they did very well in AJAX, but things in the PL are very different, and apart from this it is very different to manage a team like MU , that for so many years they have maintained an impeccable reputation, well only until he arrived, because the red sibels are no longer a bit scary and it is lazy to say something like that, before I thought of this team because it gave shit to any other team , especially the power they had in the UCL that they had participated in, but now all that was lost, it was forgotten and they see themselves differently, in fact they look very funny because even on ESPN the commentators seem to be Bullying them, Clearly the humor of some is quite peculiar.

Now, as has been stated before , if you are in a bad mood with your Football , nothing will be good for you, because obviously leaders like Ancelotti and Zidane show that they can always build good teams and champions, the case of Xabi Alonso is also getting closer to make a great history with their team in the Bundeliga, then they are people who do have a clear vision of football, who are not looking for excuses and I am sure that if they were to cause their teams to lose a lot, they would be willing to give take a step aside so that someone else can come and lift that team up, Sometimes you have to understand that if you are not well Qualified Enough for a position , it is because there are things that still need to be learned and you should not harm a team, because otherwise you will come out much better. through the back door , and it is difficult because a Coach must have his Reputation , something like this is Unfortunately Happening to Xavi in Barcelona , as a player the Best , but as a coach , there are Inconsistencies.

Luis Enrique will definitely try to defend Mbappe like last season, and of course this will be drama that repeats itself second time.
I know that Mbappe will not be able to play well if he is constantly in pressure position that makes him uncomfortable, what more, Mbappe no longer has any hopes with PSG or it could be said that the Ligue 1 title is just the best title that Mbappe can have.

Great loss when Kylian Mbappe would exits PSG, both for the board, the coach, his teammates and finally the fans would be sad, he's the only useful player in that PSG frontline and capable of winning major titles. Kylian Mbappe hesitate on leaving and few months back, the same player already find it comfortable to be putting on PSG jersey, he needs to leave and pursue whatever is available on his path.
Luis Enrique knows what his team will suffered if Kylian Mbappe leaves the club, he's the coach there and know the In and out.

Of course, Mbappe is so important to PSG that many parties want to keep him, even several times, like last season, the French president stepped in to ensure Mbappe stayed, even though Mbappe himself actually wanted to move from PSG to pursue the UCL League. the trophy he dreamed of. So it's nothing new that every time in the transfer market Mbappe's name always appears, it even makes the most news so it doesn't make us a bit confused.

However, I am confident in the steps taken by the president of Real Madrid, Florentino Perez, I do not doubt his ability to lobby for players and buy players. If you remember, he promised to buy Figo from Barcelona. At that time, many people didn't believe it was even impossible, but in Perez's hands it became a reality. Many also think that Cristiano's promise to buy was excessive, but it still happened. So, if he really wants to bring Mbappe, even Halland, to Real Madrid, I think it will happen 75% of the time, it's just a matter of time. I also think Mbappe is very suitable for Real Madrid with his Real Madrid-style counter-attacking game.

I thought he shouldn't have left Liverpool in the first place but of course he must be earning much more money there. But I mean he was doing quite okay at Liverpool and performing even better than Nunez.

His reason for leaving is known to him only and I am just surprised why he is leaving his current club so soon when all of the players that left the European clubs are still there and earning very well. Firminho till the day he left Liverpool was an exceptional player and striker playing side by side with Salah. I felt Liverpool wanted him to go to give enough playing time to Nunez who they see as a potential future striker for them that will be with them for a long time just like Firminho did. He was getting old and Liverpool needed a new young striker and hence he was sold. Coming back to the premier league is not a bad idea but if he can remain there for now, it should be the best for him because I don’t see him playing a very competitive competition for too long now considering his age.

I can't believe it how situation in the football was changing a lot, i can remember correctly that if barcelona has been strongly linked to the guimaraes but the situation is changing so fast.

https://www.goal.com/en/news/live/transfer-news-and-rumours-live/blt1ccfda38eda06d5a

According to that news if guimaraes has been targeting by PSG which was also creating a new speculation if barcelona will have no chance to get him from newcastle. It seems PSG knew that if guimaraes was good enough and this is why the club is trying to approach him to be a new striker in the club. It means PSG will have several strikers. The performance of goncalo ramos is far from good and enrique has been initiative to recruit the new striker as a part of preparation for the continuation of UCL.

It's not surprising me consider i was doubting barcelona to recruit him as a new striker due to the financial trouble faced by the club. i would trust a news that since barcelona has no money left and it will unable to pay the debt.

Guiramaes seems go to the PSG soon. He will get easy challenge in PSG caused by the competition will not be as strict as EPL. it will be a safe move for guimaraes and he can play in UCL anytime as PSG will always have guaranteed spot to play in UCL.

PSG need to think about the fact that Mbappe may soon leave them and they need to look for a replacement for him. Guimaraes is a promising player and if PSG is interested in him, then I doubt that Barcelona will be able to compete with them, the financial capabilities of these teams are too different.

PSG waited some time to see what Enrique was capable of without much funding and, most importantly, without leaders, since Messi and Neymar left the club. It seems that now the time has come when Enrique has received approval for new acquisitions and PSG will begin to strengthen the team.

[Ayers]

I don't think it's going to happen. But remember Newcastle are a rich club when he offers a higher salary who wouldn't be tempted? Doing the job is looking at the money, but I never know what will happen.

Yes I don't think it will happen in the middle of the season now if something happens it will be at the end of the season, but we will see if Girona will keep Sanchez or not? It could be that when he is brilliant he asks for a raise and Girona are not able to then there other clubs become an opportunity to recruit him.

I think so! My hunch is that he'll stay with Girona and could even bring the LaLiga title this season, it's not impossible is it?

Asides Newcastle, he's currently being linked with Bayern Munich and even if he wants the switch, I'd advice him to make the move to Bayern Munich. Moving to Bayern Munich can not be possible because they have no plans sacking Thomas Tuchel who's already won a trophy in his first season. He should put more focus towards the Champions League that's should be the aim of Bayern Munich.

The President of Girona, Pere Guardiola is ready to see him take his own decisions and if he wants to taje the move to Munich, he'll be the driver of the car as they ride him to Munich.

There's nothing impossible to achieve, 19 games out of 38 and they currently occupy second place with equal points with Real Madrid. How they play the next 19 games would determine the ending. Godspeed with whatever holds em in the future.

First of all, I don't think Bayern Munich won’t be changing their manager considering how they are performing. They are doing very well compared to previous seasons. Yes, they are currently 2nd in the Bundesliga but that is due to the extraordinary performance by Bayer Leverkusen. Bayern Munich has lost only once and Leverkusen is undefeated and that is the only difference. Tuchel is doing very well. The Bayern Board knows that as well.

As for Newcastle, I don’t think Eddie Howe needs to be changed at all. His team suffered from big injuries. Some of his key players such as Callum Wilson, Targett are injured. That definitely affected their performance. But I believe he could have performed better. Saudi Owners probably could change him. But I don't think Girona's manager is the one though. He is not that experienced compared to the others. The Premier League is the biggest league in the world and I don't think he is prepared for that.

So far, Firmino has experienced a decline in performance and is rarely seen scoring with Al-Ahli. But I think this is just a rumor and it doesn't look like he will leave Al-Ahli before his contract ends. In fact, he is still suitable to return to one of the EPL teams and if it is true that Fulham are interested then they will get one of the experienced strikers from Brazil.

It was not Firminho's wish to leave Liverpool but his management was reluctant to give him a contract extension so he had to leave Anfield. Moreover, Jurgen Kloop wants a younger striker for this season so he cannot keep Firmino in Liverpool's attack line. So, I think his business with Liverpool is finished and if he intends to return to the EPL of course it will be to another team.

I so much loved Firminho while he was at Liverpool because he was that player that will always deliver when you need him to,they formed a partnership that no defend could stand in premier league.They were three,Salah,Mane and Firminho,and there partnership was so strong,but when Liverpool decided not to give Firminho contract again,they decided to sell Mane as well,and chose to stig to only Salah, Liverpool started dropping in performances.I know I don't watch him that much in his new team,but I still so much believe in what he can bring to the team as a player.

[hyudien]

If we look at @FabrizioRomano tweet today there are a lot of transfer rumors which are quite surprising, the names of the players are quite familiar. So far no player has linked him with Man United (or I missed it) because after receiving additional funds from Sir Jim, Man United should immediately actively select and sort out the players they really want to recruit  this January before they are overtaken by other clubs.

Jumping to the Blaugrana, in fact according to  the Barca Director this January there were no players leaving. that way apart from not having additional sources  of funds Barca will also remain with the existing composition of players. If you look at the results of Barca last match it  doesn't show a promising game. They can sell at least 1 or 2 players to use the proceeds to strengthen the depth of the squad.

Robert Firmino still active but he's not enjoying his moment in Saudi Arabia, normally he's not acquainted with the football style of his new club and he's trying to fit in. I missed this trio, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane and Mohammed Salah, they were the perfect trio in the EPL and every coach would really want them to be in his squad, that's to show how competitive and strong they were. Jurgen Klopp made good use of them, he won the UEFA Champions League with this trio and also the English Premier League, Klopp achieved targets he thought he would never accomplished in his managerial race at Anfield.

He has already won enough silverwares with Liverpool and it was time to see him leave, meanwhile he dropped a huge form and was out Injured fir months last season. It was a good decision for himself and the Brazilian.

He's made a public complain about life as a Saudi Arabian Player which I believe must be the main reason why he's wanting to return back to the Premier League. He was formerly linked with Nothing Forest, I know nothing about Fulham, besides they have Raul Jimenez the former Central Forward for Wolverampton.

Nunuz will score goals, all you have to do is give him time to showcase himself for the reds. I believe whenever Mo Salah leaves he'll have and take full responsibility.

It seems the negotiations between Olivier Giroud and AC Milan were not successful and they are about to lose their player because he is not going to accept the AC Milan offer to extend his contract for a longer, maybe because of financial issues.
Olivier Giroud is now about to leave AC Milan for another team and it seems this player is also linked to MLS teams.
Recently many players they joined Inter Maimi and now Olivier Giroud is about to join this league.

Yes, maybe it's a financial problem, but there are other incentives, such as old age, maybe AC Milan won't want to give a bigger salary to a player who is quite old and maybe MLS will make a much higher offer than Milan and I think It's time for Giroud to think about retirement with a big salary like Messi and Ronaldo, even like Benzema, who left a European club to join another league to get a bigger salary to enjoy after retirement.
It seems that if this news comes true, Milan will feel sad about losing Giroud because he is one of the players they rely on and it is difficult to find a replacement for a player whose skills are equivalent to Giroud.

The French striker has said that he is not in a rush to make any transfer decision. He still has till the end of the season to decide on his next line of action. The 37-year-old striker has scored 41 goals in 106 appearances making him an asset regardless of his age. Olivier Giroud has not hidden his intentions to take up a coaching job after he retires from active football and the US MLS looks more attractive for him. He will want to follow the footsteps of Giorgio Chiellini who is having a splendid career with Los Angeles FC. Except Rossoneri gives him a lucrative contract, we might see him move to a big spending club in the United States because he has no intention of moving to Saudi Arabia. For now, I think the Frenchman is more concerned about helping the Stefano Pioli side to compete for the Italian league title.

I think close problem with financial issues AC Milan won't extend Oliver Giroud contract one year later, actually not really expensive with Oliver Giroud salary around 3.5 million euro per season as playing with bigger team AC Milan. Current bad financial faced by Milan they want get top players with lower payment salary and sign as free transfers.

Regarding from Goal.com, Oliver Giroud linked with MLS League teams but its not problem for him because his opportunity keep play with France national team almost close after losing regular position in Milan.
Difficult keep playing with top european team want to pay him around 3.5 million per season although he will be free agent next season, likely interested if any Saudi Pro League teams want to sign him and looking his performance will be success there for stopping Cristiano Ronaldo top scorer dominance?

It's a big lose if Giroud joining Inter Miami because this team only for ex-Messi's teammates, while Giroud haven't joined a team where Messi was playing. He will get discriminated by many players if he join this team.

He has many choices, he can join Ligue 2 or Saudi Pro League, don't join MLS where the league is small and no one watch it.

I think Roberto Firmino's situation is complicated. He's clearly not at his best at Al-Ahli, which may fuel suspicions that he wants to leave. Fulham is a good option for him to return to the EPL. An experienced, league-savvy striker would be acquired. Plus, his Liverpool days make me nostalgic. Liverpool strategically wanted to add younger players like Nunez to their attacking line, not his choice. Quite sad, actually. Firmino was crucial to Liverpool, and he may have had more to contribute.

I think the change is more about finding the proper match than money. Though the EPL is more lucrative than Turkey, Firmino may be seeking a team where he can make an impact at this juncture of his career. Fulham may provide him that platform. He may be a large fish in a small pond on this team, not simply another star. Whatever he decides, I hope he finds a club that uses his talents well.

I think it's time because Olivier Giroud is 37 years old and of course his quality will decline.
In football, age is very influential and AC MIlan should look for a suitable replacement in midfield because it is impossible for them to continue to rely on an old player like Olivier Giroud.

MLS and the Saudi Arabian league are currently destinations for players who are no longer young and are no longer able to compete in competitive leagues in Europe, and with the quality of Olivier Giroud still remaining, I'm sure many teams from MLS or Saudi Arabia are still interested to bring it in.

It could be because of Milan's finances and it could also be because there is Luka Jovic at Milan who has just shown his performance. although Giroud will still be an option for now.
Milan itself is still looking for a striker to replace Giroud, which is definitely a sign that he will not get a contract extension. or maybe there will be another agreement such as a salary reduction, but if Giroud's performance gets better with more goals until the end of the season. It doesn't seem appropriate for Milan to reduce his salary for a contract extension.
