⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[bering]

Savio to City makes a lot of sense. He has played wonderful at Girona this year, and City has the rights to get him after all, there is a reason why Girona got this good, City is pumping up great players to other clubs, sort of like loan but also not loan, like affiliate basically.

All in all I think Savio will shine a lot at City, and not like Pep is a coach that benches someone and doesn't make them play, he likes to switch up the players time to time, so we are going to see some changes. They just bought Greaish for 100 recently a few years ago, and Doku is there too ,he likes to put competition into places so that everyone would put their best to get playing time and prove they are the better player and this might help for Savio.

Savio is young talented player for Girona but if i am not mistaken Savio was loaned from Troyes which mean his status still not permanent at Girona and indeed during this season Girona know very well how to utilized Savio talent because Savio performance was very impressive at that team and he is one of the important player who bringing Girona to performing well and became an strong contender for Real Madrid for race title so i am not surprised if some of big teams were showing their interest to Savio however previously Barcelona also want to bought Savio from Troyes and they were very serious want him but apparently Manchester City is the winner because rumour is Savio and Manchester City have already reach to verbal agreement and this summer Savio will moved to Manchester City and reported Manchester City only spend approximately 10 millions to bought him which this is cheap price if we see from his talent

Savio to City makes a lot of sense. He has played wonderful at Girona this year, and City has the rights to get him after all, there is a reason why Girona got this good, City is pumping up great players to other clubs, sort of like loan but also not loan, like affiliate basically.

Savio needs to imrprove his career and there was no other choice. Savio can improve himself a lot in the manchester city and he can get a lot of experience from some best players in the world like haaland or even de bruyne. I think that this is not a good decision from him. It's not even a loan caused by girona was still owning by the owner of manchester city.
It's just a transfer between two entities under the same company. I see no problem with it caused by city used girona as a way to develop the players too. It can be seen by so many attackers owner by girona. I think that this is giving him a lot of motivation.

All in all I think Savio will shine a lot at City, and not like Pep is a coach that benches someone and doesn't make them play, he likes to switch up the players time to time, so we are going to see some changes. They just bought Greaish for 100 recently a few years ago, and Doku is there too ,he likes to put competition into places so that everyone would put their best to get playing time and prove they are the better player and this might help for Savio.

He needs time to develop himself before he will compete for the prime spot in the premier league. Savio will come as a new player and he will lack of experience and i think that savio needs to be coached by pep guardiola and he will be ready once he will have got a lot of experience from pep.
That's why i don't have a lot of expectation for him right now. The competition go enter into the main squad was really strict. Even laporte and cancelo were not able doing it.

[JariKriting]

Well, I do not personally believe that there is someone in life (not the highest paid player in the world) who will have made enough money that he don't need more and so do I believe in regards to Mbappé. Because he's earning a lot already from PSG doesn't mean that he wouldn't prefer to go to a team that will give him even more money, especially anything that is going to give his tax cuts e.t.c, would be a good place to go to.

But, I understand the perspective you're coming from which is to say that he is more concerned about his future in his football career right now, rather than any other thing. For instance, he would like to get more Ballon d'Or and trophies in his name than he already have. He may also want to achieve more success than the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have achieved in football, today.

Realistically, being in clubs like Real Madrid will give him more opportunity to be more popular and closer to those trophies.

It is one thing to be a great player but another thing to work with a great team of players that can support you to achieve your dream. So, coming into an already coordinated team like Real Madrid with manager like Ancelotti makes his dreams come true for him and I see no reason why he wouldn't accept Real Madrid if he had opportunity for one second.

Well Mbappe is not doing very badly at Psg and the pay he’s receiving is quite good. Yes we have to talk about his pay because for every mans labour, he needs to receive a reward or incentive and that he’s receiving at PSG. And I think one major criteria for him to want to leAve the club is still going to be the pay but that alone isn’t his major concern. Mbappe is still young and want individual awards to his name especially as the Ronaldo and Messi era have gradually reached end point. Now it’s time for him to step on the limelight and for that to happen, he’ll need to be in a club like Real Madrid.

 Yea Real Madrid are a better organized club and they’ve a team that’s ready to support you and see your dreams come true. Mbappe will really fit into this team and that will get him his individual accolades. For this reason I still believe Mbappe could still go to Santiago when the opportunity comes knocking for him.

At PSG, the salary received by mbappe is already very high. if I'm not mistaken, the value of mbappe's current contract until 2025 is 72 million euros in salary every year. if looking for a higher salary if play in Europe, it is very difficult even Real Madrid or English league clubs which are known to be very rich and their owners are also rich.
Maybe the main thing is to pursue the championship league that mbappe wants rather than just a salary.

[wakier]

The media say that he wants to leave PSG, but what if they offer him 500 million?

Its not happening and even if PSG somehow have all the money in the world, it would be stupid to offer him that much. The only reason PSG kept on offering him new contract is to keep him from leaving for free. Its pretty clear that PSG is trying to milk him by keeping him with a new contract so that they would get benefit from the transfer fees. So they are never going to offer him that insane amount just to keep him for couple of months before selling him off to another club

Not only that, PSG is also trying to retain Mbappe because Mbappe plays a big role for the team so Mbappe's departure will certainly be detrimental to PSG, not only financial losses but also losses to their assets so far because Mbappe is their valuable player. Therefore, they are trying to keep Mbappe at any cost by continuing to persuade Mbappe to renew his contract and then the team that wants to get him will inevitably have to buy Mbappe at the price that the PSG owner hopes for.
Instead of losing Mbappe on a free transfer, PSG might offer Mbappe a large amount of money so that Mbappe stays not just for a few months but for a long period of time.

[SeriouslyGiveaway]

Going to Real is clearly a great opportunity for Mbappe to win titles. But in return, he had to sacrifice many things, especially his own ego. At PSG, he was considered a king, an untouchable forbidden zone, but at Real, he had to lower his ego to integrate with other stars. I think that's also the reason Mbappe is considering, Mbappe is not the type of player who can easily integrate into any team like Ronaldo.

Right now I quite doubtful about that, I think there will be drama like last season because there is no clear and truly official certainty about the move for this star player from France.
He and PSG were indeed considered kings and he was made into truly important player and was even willing to be defended in various ways by PSG.
It just that for career and to achieve championship title, Mbappe must be willing to lower his ego and he must accept that there is some pressure placed on him by Ancelotti, but I don't think Ancelotti will do anything that crosses the line or makes his players feel excessive pressure.

Yes, of course Ancelotti is one of the coaches who is said to be very flexible with his players. He knows how to make players with big egos integrate, and handle them wisely in the dressing room. But what I'm worried about and talking about here is the behavior between star players. We still remember the departure of Neymar and Messi when standing on the same front line with Mbappe, if he goes to Real, I believe there will be small disturbances among Real's stars.

I think that both Mbappe and Vinicius will probably play together and one of them will swap positions between wing striker and center forward, both of them can do this role well. And of course, if one of the two is injured, the other will return to his strong position as wing striker. The addition of Mbappe can bring a more varied playing style to Real and is also a backup plan for the wing striker position.

Well Vinicius is one of the core players for Real Madrid and with Mbappe move this could make Real Madrid front line truly perfect, plus there is the young midfielder Bellingham who is able to make lot of contributions to the front line.
Hopefully this will become reality and there will be no drama or problems like last season, because if something like last season happens, I sure that in the future Real Madrid will cross Mbappe from the list of players they are targeting.

I also believe that Ancelotti and the Real management board have carefully calculated Real's playing style with Mbappe. It will be difficult for either of them to sit on the bench, so Ancelotti must prepare many scenarios for both Vinicius and Mbappe. For example, the position rotation plan I mentioned is similar to when Mbappe played with Neymar at PSG like the 4-2-2-2 strategy. Second, Mbappe will play center forward, Vinicius will still play on the left wing next to Rodrygo on the right wing, one of the two will have to accept change by diversifying their playing style.

Maybe the main thing is to pursue the championship league that mbappe wants rather than just a salary.

we'll see how Mbappe determines his future because Mbappe is still a mystery that is difficult to predict and if Mbappe is thinking about his career, he will definitely leave PSG and join a team that can provide more guarantees for winning the UCL title in the future, but if in the future Mbappe If he has to stay at PSG, I'm very sure that he doesn't think about his career but only thinks about a big salary.
but for a player who has high quality talent, he should not only think about a big salary when he young, he should choose to get a career and be able to get a prestigious title to increase his market value in the future, except when he a little older, Mbappe can think about a big salary, but for now I prefer if he goes to Real Madrid or an EPL team.

what I am currently thinking whether there will be new problems or drama like last season when Real Madrid tried to get Mbappe and I think PSG has great wealth and could keep Mbappe with a bigger salary offer but as long as his contract up Mbappe has the power to deciding where he will go and staying at PSG the same as throwing away his youth career without any development and will not have more experience in the future.

[FanEagle]

I'm happy and at the same time disappointed for the player, his management and Girona. Even if they're both both clubs are from same parent group. Girona right now has more pressing matters to attend too in the hunt and chase of the La Liga Competition ( Tittle ) and this i believe is the best and fastest way to distract a player from his goals at hand.

Great deal I'll say, he'll and everyother person would want to work with Josep Pep Guardiola but, this shouldn't have been done now, I'm disappointed with the agents most importantly.
But as much as that's what the player wants, Good for him then. Godspeed in the next phase of his life!

This is not happening now, this transfer is only to secure Savio to Manchester City and he will go to the Etihad Stadium at the end of the season. So, Savio will still be under the tutelage of coach Michel at Girona until this season ends. It seems that any player certainly wants to get a career advancement and when there is a big team that wants to take his talent, this should be a brilliant career and that is what Savio will feel later.

Moreover, Savio will be in the most competitive league, namely the EPL and of course he will gain more experience facing players and teams that are almost as strong each season. Moreover, the guarantee of a title with Manchester City is also in the palm of his hand when he joins Manchester City next season. Girona can't do anything about losing him and they must immediately look for a replacement in the next summer transfer window.

I mean why wouldn't you want to play for more money, that alone should be good enough that we are going to end up thinking about. I think the more money part is enough for him to make an easy choice, but also the fact that he would be moving to one of the biggest clubs in the world right now is also a great thing and people should consider that as a possible reason.

Girona is great and yes he got famous there and he should be always grateful for the chance that he played this well there and given the chance. However, that doesn't mean that he is going to end up staying there until the retirement, that is why it is quite good obvious situation that we are going to end up with players always picking up the better situation.

I read some news related to this transfer and I believe most criticism comes from the fact that there is a possibility that City will use their group to make the transfer easier, essentially giving an unfair advantage over other clubs that are also interested in him. We also don't know what kind of talks are happening behind the scenes, so it is difficult to judge whether the player really wants to move there or if there are any other incentives involved. Some people also feel like City Group is trying to use a club like Girona as a filter to see which player they can use on their biggest club, which means the chance for them to compete at a competitive level fluctuates heavily and fans don't like that.

As a football fan, I'd love it if we see less transfer like this since we can never verify anything. Who is to say that the narrative itself is created by another group that compete with City.

Not all players will really care about money when they still have the goal of expanding their career and name, maybe with big team they will be able to get large amounts of money and career that is easier to get.
But you still have to consider where the team competes and whether the supporting players can really make balanced contribution or not, as is the case with Manchester City, which is big English team and competes in the Premier League.
The Premier League is competition that is quite difficult to master and Manchester City has great players overall so if they cannot compete and perform well or have balance then they will clearly be left behind by other players and will fail to develop into great players.

Well Girona is great and he became famous there but that applies to this season, no one knows if next season will be the same where Girona is able to have the strength that can make them contenders for the title.
But each player will have their own best decision in determining the future and the good or bad achievements that will be achieved still all depend on each player.

I wonder if Dovbyk and Yan Couto will follow in Savio's footsteps by joining Manchester City? considering that Girona and Manchester City are in the same parent company and if that happens again, Manchester City will be the team that will benefit the most. We know that currently the roles of Dovbyk and Yan Couto are very important for Girona and not only this season but in next season both of them will still be needed as starters.

Currently Dovbyk is the club's top scorer with 14 goals and is competing with Jude Bellingham on the La Liga top scorer board and Yan Couto is a right wing defender who also often contributes with his assists. If Girona loses several more important players then they will become a mediocre team next season and will not be able to continue what they have achieved this season. Actually, I'm quite worried if there are advantages like this and Manchester City are already quite happy with their current squad and Savio's presence should be felt to be enough to strengthen the depth of their squad.

I don't think so because if Girona loses many important players then it will really affect Girona's performance so far, because so far Girona has performed amazingly in La Liga and they want to fight hard so they can get the La Liga title they really dream of, if If they sell their players, it's the same as selling their prices to another club where Girona might have difficulty stabilizing their performance. They currently still have a lot of matches and they have to focus on the matches, not just think about the profits from selling players, because these 2 players play a very important role. for Girona at the moment.

Moreover, Manchester City already has a lot of squads that have the same potential, if they buy a lot of players it will only lead them into violations where Manchester City has already committed several violations regarding their spending on buying players. Savio's presence should be enough for Manchester City and It's not certain that this striker will be a regular player for Manchester City, but at least Savio can be a good backup option considering his young age. Pep Guardiola can still hone Savio's abilities to become a better striker in the future.

Wrong decision if leaves Girona and join with Manchester City, there are not guarantee to get more minutes playing if three of them reach agreement for joining Manchester City has many top potential there. Actually for Dovbyk how difficult get regular position behind Manchester City has Erling Haaland as center forward.

Artem Dovbyk is very important player for Girona in this season and managed La Liga top scorer awhile after scoring 14 goals of 21 matches, I don't sure he will get more minutes playing if moving to Manchester City next season. Had other rumor with Barcelona interested for signing Artem Dovbyk but I doubt has enough money around 50 million euro for fees transfer or not? But difference opportunity if Artem Dovbyk joining with Barcelona he will get regular position than Manchester City.

[Velvet78]

I wonder if Dovbyk and Yan Couto will follow in Savio's footsteps by joining Manchester City?

Yan Couto is already a Manchester City player. He is just playing for Girona on loan. 

When it comes to Dovbyk I don't feel like so at least for now. Because Manchester City have Haaland and Alvarez already. I know Alvarez's main position is second striker but it doesn't matter for him much when he plays in Haaland's position as well. But Dovbyk would definitely be on the radar of some big teams after having a really solid season so far. Girona bought them for 7.75 million euros and now his market value is even seen as 28 million.

Both Girona and Manchester City are rarely sell their players, instead they only loan it to other clubs. Manchester City is a greedy club, if Girona has a good player and Manchester City needs a new player, they will took Girona's players.

If Couto and Dovbyk can be consistent for two seasons, I think Manchester City will want to sign them.

But each player will have their own best decision in determining the future and the good or bad achievements that will be achieved still all depend on each player.

With the current situation, there is great hope for Girona to be able to improve again in the coming seasons even though it is as you say because in the end we know that this season was a surprise but it is not wrong to expect the best again next season.

But in this case I think it will be a little complicated. To get the same consistency as today then it's important for Girona to keep the teamwork going but the problem is that next season they will definitely lose some of their players considering we must be aware that some players like Savio are now confirmed to join Manchester City next season. In addition, there will certainly be several other players who will eventually be ogled by big clubs due to the performance displayed this season so that it becomes one of the difficult conditions for Girona to anticipate next season even though the hope is that they remain consistent but do not rule out the possibility that differences in performance will occur later.

Well, Manchester city and Girona are being owned by same owners and it makes sense if the loan transfer between both clubs is seamless and smooth.
Couto and Dovbyk may even not want to return to their parent club after having more play time at a top tier club like Manchester city. The hope is that Manchester city qualifies ahead of Girona to return to the UCL, else, Girona may be the option to go the UCL next season with the kind of performance they have put in this season and according to the rules of the game.

It's a player's decision if he wants to stay in a club or leave, also it depends on his contract signed with the team as well as the teams decision to either keep him or let him go. In PSG, Mbappe is one key man that they don't want to give off yet. Even though his contract is set to expire by summer, they still know he's advantageous and would want to keep him.

 For Mbappe, his stay in the team beyond and after the expiration of the contract seems to be dependent on his intentions as well as the teams performance in the long run. Good thing for him that Madrid may not really be interested in him yet until summer so he's got to be a bit patient till then, then maybe, he'd be willing to join the Spanish side. Even though Liverpool were questing for him as well, i didn't think they were set to afford that amount for him during the January transfer window. Let's just anticipate summer break whilst watching his movement decision unfold.

I have a feeling (that is echoed by many other random internet strangers and publications) that if both of these clubs end up inside the Champions League next season, that there would be, first of all, a total transfer ban between them. And that is just the minimum, as UEFA will probably also force these clubs to make organizational changes to separate the two clubs from each other.

That's what happened with the Red Bull clubs a few years back.

Serhou Guirassy is reportedly being targeted by several teams in the EPL and considering that his release clause is still at 17.5 million euros, I think the striker from Guinea is still underrated. This season at Stuttgart he has put in incredible performances for a striker and he has scored 17 goals in the Bundesliga so far. It is possible that the number of goals will continue to increase considering that Stuttgart is also still holding out for a place in the Champions League.

If we could guess which EPL teams would be interested in him? could it be Chelsea, Liverpool or Arsenal? because Manchester United is impossible because they already have Rasmus Hojlund. It will make you curious about where your career will go next and the EPL will be even busier if the arrival of a striker like him who is ready to compete on the top scorer's board next season.

[Minecache]

From my point of view, it is likely that these players will leave next season because they will definitely be the target of many big European clubs. We know interest and offers will always come when a player can show good statistics in one season and currently either Dovbyk or Yan Couto have the quality to fulfill that. Previously there were rumors that Yan Couto was linked with Real Madrid and he would be Dani Carvajal's successor as right wing-back.

On the other hand, I haven't heard of any team being interested in bringing Dovbyk but what is clear is that the Ukrainian striker will get his turn. Girona may be grateful to have these great players and it is possible that their current coach, Michel, will also look for a new challenge at a bigger club considering that his achievements this season have also been very good in building Girona.

Yes, that is also possible. The coach might also think that he has achieved great things so far. Actually, he is now ready to move to a bigger club and have some bigger challenges to face. That is not entirely impossible, to be honest. I am pretty sure that the players are going to leave. You know if the coach also leaves, Girona will honestly not have much to replicate the same type of performance, to be honest. But at the same time, the club cannot do anything if they want to leave also. Actually, this is also the price that you have to pay if you are not financially blessed.

[bitLeap]

Girona is great and yes he got famous there and he should be always grateful for the chance that he played this well there and given the chance.

As a football fan, I'd love it if we see less transfer like this since we can never verify anything. Who is to say that the narrative itself is created by another group that compete with City.

When it comes to player transfers, Man City has always been the best at arranging strategies, including avoiding FFP, and this has been proven several times since Man City has escaped sanctions. Regarding Savio's transfer to Man City, it has become an open secret, at Troyes he has never played at all since being loaned to Eindhoven. We also know that Troyes and Girona are part of the City Football Group and that means Man City has been planning this for a long time. So we are no longer surprised when Man City plays a role in player transfers, especially when the players they take are from CFB itself.
