⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Palakka]

While there are rumors that Guardiola wants to sign Donnaruma and if he succeeds, it will be a great move, because from the confident game of the goalkeeper many depends, and Donnaruma essentially took the Italian national team out of the group, his confident game at Euro 2024.

Yes this will be so good for Manchester City to bring the Italian spider Gianluigi Donnarumma to the club. Because currently he is too young his performance is just absolutely superb. Gianluigi Donnarumma is 25 years old and their current contract will be expire in 2026. So it would be a nice move if they had done it successfully. Earlier, Manchester City had an opportunity to sign Gianluigi Donnarumma, but the club rejected it. In the previous deal, PSG wanted to do a swap deal in which they offered Gianluigi Donnarumma and Marco Verratti to sign Bernardo Silva in 2023. But Manchester City rejected it. So now it is the best opportunity to sign Gianluigi Donnarumma because the current goalkeeper of Manchester City has more chances to move to Saudi Arabia because many clubs are interested in the Saudi Arabia leagues.

Ederson is reportedly currently being targeted by Al Ittihad and several Saudi Arabian teams at the moment so it is very likely that he will leave the Etihad Stadium in the near time, Al Nassr and Al Ittihad have made an offer to Manchester City but so far Manchester City will only sell Ederson if there is a team that dares to pay 50 million pounds sterling, Al Nassr, who just lost Ospina, has brought Bento from the Brazilian team, but it looks like they still need another goalkepeer who is more experienced and that is why Al Nassr has made an offer of 25 million pounds sterling previosly and has been rejected by Manchester City, the potential for Ederson departure is currently very large and Manchester City must immediately anticipate it if there is a team that dares to pay 50 million euros for Ederson later, it seems that Donnarumma will not be Guardiola target because as @fabrizio Romano said if there are no talks and there is no possibility of recruiting Donnarumma at this time.

Honestly, I was already warming up to the fact that Manchester City will be slightly weaker next season after hearing of his departure. Kevin Debruyne was already becoming a peripheral figure in that Manchester City team, they may actually be stronger without him provided that his replacement is fit & at least 70% as talented. He didn’t feature in quite an amount of games last season and even days he featured and wasn’t playing well city still coped.
They always have something up their sleeves. So expecting them to be weak at any time is like expecting a mountain to suddenly become a valley. I already foresaw Foden taking up the mantle from him & becoming more central to their plans. Let's see how the transfer window goes for every team.

IMO, Pep Guardiola actually has a choice of other players, for example Phil Foden who plays the role of replacing De Byurne. It is not uncommon for Foden to play impressively when De Byurne is still injured. Apart from that, Phil Foden is a player who is capable of playing wherever Pep rotates him, it's just that Kevin De Byurne's role is still very much needed even though he is no longer young. Plus, Pep has confirmed that Kevin De Bruyne will not leave the Etihad this summer, quoted by Fabrizio Ramano. Can't rule out the possibility that if De Byurne leaves, City could weaken as you say. However, the fact is that the City players were able to do their job very well when KDB was suffering from a long injury. Pep Guardiola's rotation for several of his players is working as it should. Even if one of the City players leaves, for example the player we are discussing. City will find the ideal replacement, or he will play with the available players. After all, City has very capable players in every line. I will quote another report from Fabrizio Romano, Pep said, we have the opportunity to change the squad, I do not rule out the option of choosing new players, but if someone leaves, Pep said that he still has the same squad. I tried to interpret it, if one of the City players left. Pep still has a strong squad, he can even bring in new arrivals.

It seems like it's just a rumor circulating that Kevin De Bruyne will be proposed to by a Saudi Arabian club, because Manchester City hasn't really responded to the oblique news circulating and Manchester City hasn't responded to the rumor, and looking at the remaining contract which will end in 2025 together. Kevin De Bruyne I think Kevin will stay at the Etihad Stadium, and Manchester City is optimistic that Kevin De Bruyne will still stay at Manchester City. And if Al Ittihad really wants to propose to Kevin De Bruyne, City doesn't mind, it's just that Manchester City is charging a fairly high price, and that doesn't make sense considering that Kevin De Bruyne is already 33 years old and has already entered retirement.

Actually, I still want to see Kevin De Bruyne still at the Etihad in the next season because I think he still has good performance to play with Manchester City.
Last season we didn't see Kevin De Bruyne from the start of the season because he had a long injury so I was also dissatisfied with not seeing his performance from the start, but if you look at the current situation I think Man City should consider selling this player this year because otherwise they will lose Kevin De Bruyne next season for free, I know Kevin De Bruyne is a very important player for Man City but his contract at the club only has the remaining season for next season and of course Man City doesn't want to suffer a loss but if they want to keep Kevin de Bruyne has one more season left, at least the club can extend his contract until 2026 and then next season he will be sold to a club that is interested in him.


Seeing the latest news on Twitter, Pep Guardiola stated that Kevin De Bruyne will not leave Man City this summer, so it is clear that Kevin De Bruyne's arrival in Saudi Arabia is just a rumor. But we don't know if he spend next season, it might be his last season at Man City.

Kevin has fulfilled his duty perfectly so far. However, there is a cruel concept and that is time. Now he has reached a certain age and contributes less to the team. Guardiola noticed this and approved his departure from the team. It was disappointing for me because I thought he was a symbol for the team. I would like him to retire at Manchester City. Of course, we want these things, but our wanting does not change anything. Let's see which team he will go to. I'm sure he will play his best in the team he goes to. He is a complete professional, a great player in every aspect.

Manchester City will grow far and stronger than we could ever imagine, Pep Guardiola will ensure that happens during his era as manager,  Going for the best tender players with tighten scouting sector active. How on earth will one of the strongest club in the European world of football grows to become weak simply because one of their keyman, Kelvin De Bruyne keen on leaving? Pep Guardiola is the main pillar of the club and he will not relent in his duties, always doing his best to ensure he grabbed significant opportunities and making potential signings that would enchanced the team's performance and stats.

While I admire what Romano does for the transfer window period, and how he has cultivated this iconic influence and every agent in the world keeps on telling him what they want to be known, I also think that he may not have "every" information at all times. Maybe he is wrong on this one?

I do not know but there are way too many places reporting that KDB is going to Saudi Arabia, and all-ittihad has already made a deal with City, only thing left is to convince KDB at this point according to many sources. Doesn't mean it is a done deal, it just means that City has a price for KDB and ittihad probably found how much that is and willing to pay if they want to. They could still try to convince KDB and fail, that part is still true, nobody is saying it is a done deal, it is just that city agreed, and I think that could be right.

Obviously KDB always said he is open to it as well, so that part means that if ittihad willing to pay a good amount, then they could get KDB, all depends on the money as well. I believe that this is going to take a while, I am not expecting this deal to be over right away, even if it happens it may take some time and could be this whole news cycle for weeks.

De Bruyne remains in City as it has been confirmed today. It is a big relief for City for them to keep De Bruyne back in the club because he is a key player and like the engine room to City. If his presence is not in the field, it use to be a problem for City because his role is a very important one. I could remember last season that he went on injury, the club couldn't be in their best performance and Haaland hardly score during De Bruyne absence.
