⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Ryu_Ar1]

Good news guys, Andriy Lunin will extend his contract with Madrid. Ancelotti team is increasingly seen to be very consistent in maintaining quality players and maintaining them. This is one of the things I like about Madrid, a very precise management that is able to manage players very well. Andriy Lunin is one of the best goalkeepers Madrid has and he is very reliable in domestic league competition and in the UCL. The reason Madrid maintains the goalkeeper is because Madrid still really wants to win the UCL title again this season.

He deserved to do so and Madrid deserved to extend Lunin's contract in their current situation.

Indeed, his position will still be a little difficult this season especially even though he was very instrumental last season but when Courtouis recovers it is certain that he will be the main goalkeeper.

But by looking at Courtouis' current age and with sometimes long injury problems, this could actually be another opportunity for Lunin because sooner or later when his consistency is still very much maintained in terms of performance then indeed when Courtouis leaves or experiences a decline then he will definitely be a strong candidate for the main goalkeeper.
He's still very young and it's a good part of the process for Lunin to extend his contract in Madrid.

Chelsea spent so much, and yet look at how terrible they are, they are in a chaos and keep getting more players, they have to sell like half the squad, which is why it's a proof that spending money doesn't guarantee anything at all. We need to remember that the best thing to do in this case would be just getting one big name, if you spend 100 and get one star and do that every year, eventually you will have a superb team, instead of bunch of 40 million small players.

40 million on a player that isn't proven is a waste of money but Chelsea don't want to hear that because they got lot of money to throwaway. A lot of the players they have been signing are turning into flops. The person incharge of recruitment at Chelsea has to be sacked because most of their signings for the past few seasons has been trashed and they'll have to sell them all to bring in new players that can uplift the club from the slum that they're at. David Fofana going to the Turkish Super League is a prime example of what happens when you don't have a plan but just want to spend money and think, money is going to solve all your problems.

He is also one of the names Chelsea has signed but hasn't given much chance. I know he is still young (21) but let's see. Not every young player being loaned to other teams turn into better players. I hope he improves his skills more in time. Maybe it is better for him to leave Chelsea for now though. Because you know how many players they have signed recently.    It is really not easy to prove yourself among too many players...

For Chelsea to have signed him, they must have definitely a great potential in him that when groomed for some years, he’ll become one of the most sought out players in football. He’s still young and agile, his best is still yet to come but with a lot of experience and hardwork, he’ll become successful in his career. Chelsea has too many players, so the best thing for him now is to go on a loan on some mediocre teams, that will help give him more playing time and make him to excel more and recognized by other big teams. If by the time he’s successful as a player, he can now decide the team to move to from there, whether to move back to Chelsea or get a new club and move there for those that showed interest in him.

Barcelona Boss Hansi Flick wants to sign the the Bayern Munich midfielder Jamal Musiala for Barcelona:
 
Here, Guys, I saw a fresh news on Twitter in which it was said that Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick is willing to sign one of the best young talent Jamal Musiala. Hansi Flick used Jamal Musiala before at Bayern Munich. Jamal Musiala was 17 years old when Hansi Flick gave him the opportunity to play the game in 2020, which has made him a world class player. And now from the interesting things that the same Bayern Munich ex coach Hansi Flick wants Jamal Musiala to move to Barcelona. And become a vital player for the club. In this regard, Johan Laporta is also willing to offer over $110 million to Bayern Munich for signing the young talent Jamal Musiala.

This is a good news for Barcelona fans, they will be happy if this deal happens but what is the possibility of it happening?

Barcelona made an attempt to sign Niko Williams from Athletic Club Bilbao during the summer transfer period, they failed due to financial instability, and they let some players go just to ease their financial pressure, do you think they can make it to sign Jamal Musiala?

Jamal Musiala is a player that is very good and creative, his hardworking is one of his key assets because his work rate is very good and he is a starter in both his national team Germany and his club side Bayern Munich. I don’t think Bayern will let him go, and even if they will let him go, there are several teams that will be bidding for him and I am sure Barcelona will find it hard to get him.

Andriy Lunin is one of the best goalkeepers Madrid has and he is very reliable in domestic league competition and in the UCL. The reason Madrid maintains the goalkeeper is because Madrid still really wants to win the UCL title again this season.

This is good news for me, Lunin is a goalkeeper who has good potential as a replacement for Thibaut Courtois under the crossbar, he has shown it in the UCL competition last season and has an important role in bringing Madrid to the top match.
Madrid knows that their players are developing and do not want other clubs to take him, new contacts and new deals will keep him at the Bernabeu.
With this news, Lunin's chances as the main goalkeeper will clearly be wider, and I will wait for the right time for him as a core player.

It wouldn't be wrong to say that Lunin carried Real Madrid last year in the absence of Courtois. Many teams' reserve goalkeepers are not as good as him. The Ukrainian goalkeeper is talented enough to be the main goalkeeper of any team in the world right now. Real Madrid is aware of this and Ancelotti must have felt the need to extend his contract for this. Also, why shouldn't he be the main goalkeeper in the future? This is a very good player and he showed the world how good he is last year. He deserves this contract to the fullest

I agree with you, but I think he needs more game practice. While Courtois was away he performed really well, but now he's back to being a backup goalkeeper and it's not known when he'll be back in the main squad. As I see it he is as good as Courtois and maybe it was better to let him go to another club where he would play in the main squad and improve all the time. Now he's just waiting for his time, which we don't know when it will come

The situation is still very favorable for Lunin although surely for this season it will be different from flying hours unlike before when Courtois was injured but indeed he is still very worthy to be in Madrid even as a second goalkeeper.

He is still very young and he just needs to familiarize himself with playing well at every opportunity given by Ancelotti later although we know sometimes Madrid is sometimes always unpredictable in buying players or removing players but with Lunin extending his contract now then of course this is a good choice.

But in this case I think Ancelotti must also provide more flight hours this season for Lunin when extending the contract especially the tight competition where Madrid's schedule this season is doing several competitions of course there must be rotation and this is the right time for Lunin to prove himself.

Napoli, Victor Osimhen and his agents made some mistakes that would have been avoided. Napoli decided to increase their demand after they had settled with the Saudi side. The Italian side wanted to exploit  Al-Ahli when they demanded an extra €5m after agreeing to collect €80m, that's greed.

His agent, Roberto Calenda, showed great incompetence by not pushing negotiations for the benefit of his principal. I read that Victor had to negotiate the Galastataray deal without him. He had to seek a middleman from Turkey, George Gardi, to help him facilitate the deal.

People are blaming Victor for not accepting the Chelsea deal by reducing his salary. Chelsea's offer was too small and I wouldn't support him to accept it. After all, Chelsea is not a fantastic side and doesn't look like a team that will qualify for the Champions League next season.

I think at Galatasaray, it will be different judging from the welcoming reception the fans gave to him, they have already made chants and songs for him even when he has not been on the pitch for once but they already love him and welcome him. At Chelsea it would have been like every other transfer and new player coming in so I am in support of his move to Galatasaray.

Good news guys, Andriy Lunin will extend his contract with Madrid. Ancelotti team is increasingly seen to be very consistent in maintaining quality players and maintaining them.

Real Madrid have decided to finally settle with Andriy Lunin after reports of being interested in Mike Maignan. This is good news for Real Madrid fans I’m sure they love Lunin for his heroics last season in Courtois absence, taking them to the champions league final with his resounding saves in the quarter and semi finals.

If we check the teams that spent the most money, teams like Brighton and Ipswhich spent more than United or PSG, but many people keep looking at the big clubs and think that they are big because they spent a lot and that's why they are good, when in reality a team isn't always good just because they spent money, not that you can be good without spending money, you do have to spend a lot, but it doesn't guarantee success.

Like Ipswich spent so much, you think they will be any good? Of course not, they will probably be battling relegation, but they are spending like they are chasing title. So it's not about the money, it's not about who has deeper pockets, it's about who uses the money for the best possible improvement.

According to the transfermarkt Ipswich Town has spend approximately 120 million to bought total 12 players this season and i have to says this is large funds considering they are not a rich team just like Chelsea or Manchester City but i can understand why Ipswich Town was very active this summer because after 22 year finally they can playing again at Premier League so i am sure they want to survive in this league and i have no wonder if the owner has spend a lot of money to reach their target

I have seen the lists of players who bought from Ipswich Town this summer and i have to says they are only mediocre players which mostly some of those players is came from Championship Clubs such as West Brom or Hull City and indeed there is a name which familiar into their squad Kalvin Phillips and he actually good player but after got the injured Kalvin Phillips was never able to in form again and in Ipswich Town too he hasn't bringing positive impact

I don’t think Bayern will let him go, and even if they will let him go, there are several teams that will be bidding for him and I am sure Barcelona will find it hard to get him.

This is definitely a rumour and the rumor doesn’t carry any weight, Jamal Musial is currently in his last year at Bayern Munich and they are working to actually get him on a new contract as the Bayern Munich director of Football said that Jamal Musiala is a player they want him to have longevity in the club with him just like the likes of Muller. This rumor came by because of this news of his contract expiring, but even if the player In question is up for sale I don’t think Barcelona will be able to sign him.

The player in question will be 100m player on the market today, with Barcelona almost not been able to buy even $50 million players then Musiala will be a very difficult signing for them as the transfer fees will be a barrier and also the wages of the player. So this is a transfer that is dead on arrival self.

Coach Arteta has signed a new contract with Arsenal, the deal will be announced soon by the "Gunners". The Spanish coach has contributed greatly to Arsenal's dramatic change since replacing Unai Emery at the end of 2019. Mikel has been a key figure in returning Arsenal to the top echelons of English and European football while creating a new bond between the team, the club, and the supporters.

With the new contract, Arteta can get closer to the salary Pep Guardiola is receiving. Arteta's agreement to stay at the Emirates Stadium, ending speculation about his future, will help Arsenal be more confident before conquering the Premier League title, as well as the Champions League.

This is good news for the Arsenal team players and fans worldwide. No doubt ever since Arteta has been in Arsenal there has been nothing but steady improvement in the performance of the team. Not only that, his ability to sign good players in the team as well is a plus to his coaching skills. There is hope for Arsenal to break the yoke of several years of not being able to win the premier league.

With Mikel Arteta as coach, Arsenal will go far this season and we understand the pattern of the coach, aiming for goals and winning major titles with Arsenal but I do think it's not yet time. Mikel Arteta have core duties to carry out this season, we totally know the potential development of Gunners this season and exceptionally stunning. Mikel Arteta extends his contract with Arsenal and that simply means good news for the coach and the club. They're in full agreement and we'll watching the competitive season for Gunners. Since Mikel Arteta was handed the position of a coach, he's been working extremely hard enough to enact tactics that would be beneficial for the club and his player's development.

Arteta started from scratch, even I felt doubtful when 2 years went on there was no good development with Arsenal. But I was wrong, Arteta was finally able to prove himself and be trusted again. Arteta was then given the trust and facilities to make several transfers. Although in the end they have not been able to become EPL champions. But if you look at the moment Arsenal is very good. I think Arsenal's target this year is to win the EPL.

I'm very disappointed with the way Chelsea treated Datro. He’s too talented to be treated like 19 years old player who has never played senior football before. This is really hurting his sale value. It's crazy to make this decision given his levels above Guiu. I would have loaned out Guiu instead of him.

The better for Chelsea to recall Datro at mid-season and give him a proper loan rather than turkish club. His club has let him down in terms of finding him a good loan to develop his performance. He had a good enough loan at Burnley. And i can't believe it how it's not enough to warrant him not ending up at Turkish team.

We have heard lot of talk about Moh Salah publicly and many assume that Moh Salah will leave Liverpool to play with another team and there are also those who assume that Moh Salah is considering his future but has the potential to re-sign new contract with Liverpool.
But from some rumors that I have heard, it seems that Liverpool are indeed preparing for Moh Salah new contract and they still want their main players to stay and strengthen the team for longer time in the future.
What is clear is that Moh Salah and Virgil Van Dijk are very important players for Liverpool, both of them have brought Liverpool to have good performance and several great achievements so far, it is not easy for Liverpool to lose these two players in the near future because finding replacement will definitely be difficult.

Yes, I also think Liverpool definitely don't want to lose Moh. Salah for free, especially since he is a very important player and many clubs are interested in him, including PSG, who are currently watching Moh Salah and are ready to make a fantastic offer if he does not extend his contract at Liverpool. Previously, Liverpool had hesitated to extend Moh Salah's contract because his age was getting older and his abilities would definitely decline, but because of the many pressures from various parties and Moh Salah also still wants to stay longer at the club, it is likely that Liverpool is preparing a new contract in the near future, but it seems that his contract is not long, it is likely that he will soon be sold to another club, maybe Saudi Arabia has a chance to get him next season.

Source: Mohammed Salah

Moh Salah for free when his contract expires will be loss for Liverpool because besides they will not get money in the sale they also have to spend more money to be able to bring in other players as replacement.
I think the new contract extension can only reach two seasons and for the last season when Moh Salah performance starts to decline to compete with players in the Premier League where the majority of each team has young players will make Liverpool be able to release Moh Salah.
Their target this season is to compete for the championship title because of their failure last season, I quite curious about Liverpool development in the future, maybe in the upcoming transfer market they have also prepared transfer plan to get some more players and make it easier to improve the quality of play.
For his performance at the beginning of this season it was still quite good and hopefully they are able to maintain that performance for longer.

You are right that Arteta started from the bottom, he struggled hard to be able to give a better performance with Arsenal, at the beginning many people even doubted and even demanded him to resign from the Arsenal coaching chair because he was considered unable to give his best with Arsenal. However, the management's patience to keep Arteta is now starting to pay off with Arsenal's performance which is getting better from season to season, even in the last 2 seasons they were able to occupy the runner-up position under Manchester City. This season many expect them to be able to break the dominance of Manchester City who have retained the title for 4 consecutive seasons, currently they are a team that I think is also very capable of doing so. As long as they can be consistent and can be better than the previous season.

I can even guarantee that Jamal Musiala is much more important than Harry Kane, last season before Kane, Jamal Musiala role managed to contribute 12 goals and 10 assists so it makes sense for Bayern Munich to keep him longer. If they don't act soon, there will be many clubs who intend to bring him in at any price. He is still young but his maturity level on the field is unquestionable.

In my opinion, Jamal Musiala cannot be compared to Harry Kane because both of these players are important players for Bayern Munich at this time and the club will definitely continue to use these 2 players in every match, Harry Kane is a senior player and his experience in the Europa League is undoubtedly the club still needs him in the team no matter even though he is 31 years old he can still stay in the team maybe until he is 35 years old, while for Jamal Musiala the club will try to maintain him as much as they can but also not too pushy if there is a club that is interested and willing to pay a high price maybe Bayern Munich will release him by setting a high price because he is a valuable asset.

I also don't mind if Arteta and Arsenal have not been able to realize their dream of lifting the trophy, but at least we can clearly see that the Gunners squad is one of the clubs that is able to challenge Man City directly for 3 consecutive seasons. So, when Man City is a little careless, Arsenal will be ready to take advantage of the opportunity. In my opinion, this requires Man City as the defending champion to always try to be aware of Arteta aggressiveness with Arsenal in the Premier League.

Musiala and Harry Kane are of course two mainstay players whose positions are difficult to replace at the moment, so Bayern Munich will of course not try to let thir go easily , I  think Kane can't be compared with Musiala considering the position and role of both of them is also very different now, but in terms of sharpness and contribution of course both of them have made a big contribution to Bayern Munich's game so far, I think Kane is a player who is currently very safe both in terms of contract and position at Bayern Munich, but Musiala actually has to be Munich is the main focus for them to pay attention to considering the situation of Musiala who is currently being targeted by many teams, Musiala is still very young and he is a very valuable asset in the future, so it is very appropriate for Bayern Munich to retain him at this time.

He had a good enough loan at Burnley. And i can't believe it how it's not enough to warrant him not ending up at Turkish team.

David Datro Fofana career in Chelsea is not run well because since bought from FC Molde on 2022 David Datro Fofana was never gets the opportunity to playing regular with this team although Chelsea was changing the manager several times since he was arrived but his condition is always be uncertain and during with Chelsea David Datro Fofana only loaned to the several clubs and the latest is Burnley and in this team David Datro Fofana performance is not impressive because from 15 matches he only scores 4 goals

I think David Datro Fofana has just make good decision by loan to FC Goztepe because if he stayed in Chelsea i think he has small chances to playing regularly because at Chelsea current squad there are some of forward players such as Palmer, Joao Felix or Sancho and he will be hard to compete against these players to gets one place on Chelsea starting lineup
