⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[cygan]

since after this season Achraf Hakimi will leave borussia dortmund back to real madrid, Thomas Meunier will most likely change from psg to bvb for free
a perfect replacement for the very strong A. Hakimi on this position

Some news from Onefootball:

Milik is the 1st choice if they can sell Higuain 
Romagnoli can go to Liverpool.
Kalidou Koulibaly will leave Napoli only for a big offer, this can be one of the latest years when Napoli can ask a big money, he is going for 30years.

Sources: https://onefootball.com/it/notizie/milik-kk-e-romagnoli-le-notizie-di-mercato-di-oggi-30215042

Koulibaly is a player that is not for sale for Napoli.
I remember that Chelsea was asking for Him and offering a lot of money but still they didn't give them to the blues. He is now old to go to another club - in my opinion he should end his career at Napoli.

Koulibaly is really, really highly rated, I think he’s probably world class, if he was tor sale I think a lot of big coubs would be interested. He just turned 29 the other day, he’s probably got another 3-4 years left at the top.

Liverpool have made a £54m bid for Kalidou Koulibaly.

Gomez, Matip, Lovren and Virgil, I don't know how many teams in Europe have players as good as them as center backs. Koulibali is also one of the best defenders in the world right now and will improve Liverpool's defense, but imo Liverpool do not have to spend money on a center back so soon again after buying Van djik, as we all know Napoli won't accept £54m.

I cannot find the article again, but I read somewhere that City and pep are also interested in buying Koulibali, they are prolly the team for me in real need of his services. John stones may probably leave at the end of this season, so Koulibali and Laporte will be a dream partnership for City in defense.

Lucas Hernández might be leaving Bayern after just one season. It seems the 24 year-old defender is currently in talks with FC Paris Saint-Germain. Personally I doubt, that these rumors are true, but if they are, Bayern is at least asking €80m. I guess no one expected David Alaba and Alphonso Davies playing delivering such strong performances. What do you guys think about this topic?

Lucas Hernández is close to agreeing personal terms with PSG and has asked Bayern to let him join the French club. Bayern remain firm on their €80m asking price for the world cup winner [@footmercato]

Didn't already Napoli reject the offer? Koulibaly would love to join them I think.

I disagree about Lovren Matip I think Gomez and Virgil are good together but Gomez as you can see has to play LB if Robertson is unavailable and Milner look like he will be out for a long time, Matip is still only a deputy and Lovren is a long term liability Klopp wants to replace.

Liverpool is trying to buy one of the Dortmund players, Jordan Sancho, with the arrival of new players the club might consider an incoming offer for Sancho. If Liverpool wants him, they must willing to pay Sancho worth £100m, so the question is whether this player is really needed by Liverpool? Because they have some players that can fill Sancho positions already.

Both teams will be happy. Barca for the money.
Juventus for selling 30yo Pjanic at 70m.

Let's see if it will happen.

A lot of teams including Manchester United, Liverpool, as well as Real Madrid whom are setting their eyes on Jadon Sancho are saying that Borussia is overvaluing the wonderkid that's why you'll only see news about them monitoring the situation and waiting for that asking price to drop, basically no team thinks that 100 million pounds is worth it for Jadon Sancho and I think about it similarly. With 100 million pounds they can basically buy 2 good stars in top 5 leagues which will help them more compared to a wonderkid.

This is a hell of a money.
I don't think that Arthur is worth and Pjanic 70m (!)
They are just exchanging players for other reasons maybe that we cannot see and they are below the table.
I haven't seen any other player getting such a huge transfer when he has reached 30 yo.

[Captain Corporate]

 From what I understand, Barcelona will be getting money in return as well and it will not be a straight up transfer.  So what happens will be they will decide a worth for Arthur and they will decide a worth for Pjanic and in the end whatever is the difference Juventus will pay that to Barcelona. It is certainly a horrible horrible deal for Barcelona, not even close to being a semi-decent one, the worst I have ever seen. Pjanic worths nothing at this point, sure you can get maybe 2-3 good years out of him but we are talking about a 23 year old Arthur that is better than Pjanic even right now and Arthur could play for another 10 years at least. At the end of the day instead of getting pjanic and 10-15 million, Barcelona could have gotten 50-60 million straight up for Arthur and I would take that over this deal any day of the week.

William Carvalho and leicester city - almost everything done

William Carvalho agrees terms with Leicester - Real Betis want significant deal

You might think that Liverpool has amazing center backs but I would rahter have one more super star defender than have gomez+matip+lovren all three, if this was NBA I would offer a team three of them together for one good superstar. Look at VVD for example that dude is a super star defender and miles ahead of rest of the defense if you ask me, and look at Robertson and look at Alexander-Arnold, those are some amazing backs as well.

I am not saying any of those three defenders has to change, they are all great, but if they are looking for someone even better I wouldn't blame them because that looks like the only place in starting eleven that could change. However I do not think Koulibaly is the guy for that, I am talking about levels of Varane to change that place up and have a bigger impact, Koulibaly is not that better than the three they have.

It seems Juventus to have given up on Pogba?
I haven't seen speculation in a long time about Pogba's move to Juventus ^{or Real Madrid}

IDK, here is something happened on Twitter and Jadon Sancho. He liked very interesting tweet about his status in BVB and MU

This is a hell of a money.

Ofcourse not, they are both over evaluating players so they can sign a bigger "+" for the financial fair play.
A new rumor from different sources here in Italy.

Sarri if he will not win the league he will leave.

Not sure, Arthur-Pjanic is an economical operation nothing more.

According to media.

Juventus need 40m for financial fair play before 30/06/2020
Barca need 70m for financial fair play before 30/06/2020

(Barca will need to sell 1 more player before 30/06)

I think it will not be fair if clubs need to harmonized financial income/outcome to be eligible for FFP. COVID crisis has seriously undermined revenues, will clubs be forced to sell players to cover that shortfall? Some of the big clubs have the capacity to exist even if they have lower income due to Corona pandemic.

If I remember correctly, didn't the LA League announce that Barca, Real Madrid and Atletico M. will have a ban on spending money on the transfer. I think only a 1/4 of the budget from sold players. League and government help them with covering some of the percent players salaries, so they do not want to tolerate excessive spending of money. or has given up on it?

I think it is very obvious to see what the deal is alot about between barcelona and juventus. Barcelona has interest in Pjanic, and with Juventus not willing to lose him to nothing decided to get a very good player in Arthur.

So this is the deal, Barcelona gets an experienced, elite midfield maestro in pjanic, while juventus gets a hungry talented footballer in Arthur. To be realistic, chances are of arthur and juventus getting the best from the deal.

Gomez and Lovren are no where near the standard of Van Dijk.  Lovren especially has been lacking at the back for majority of the matches he played. I wouldn't blame Gomez much. He was really solid at the back before his injury. Since he returned, He has been a shadow of his former self. Talking about Koulibaly, I'm not even sure the deal will pull through. Napoli's asking price is on the high side.  Also, I think Klopp should consider getting a reliable second choice keeper. The likes of Adrian leaves much to be desired when they're called upon to fill in big boots.

In March this year, Kane briefly heated up the situation by saying he would leave if indeed the Spurs could not meet their targets. Despite having received such a warning, Mourinho remains optimistic that Spurs can meet the player's target.

During playing at Spurs, Harry Kane did not win a prestigious title at all. By far the most highlighted achievement was his success in bringing Spurs to the 2018-2019 Champions League final. The difficulty in winning the trophy was allegedly the reason for going to another club.
