⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[SquallLeonhart]

I am sure Salah will be fine, he will either stay at Liverpool, do great success there for some more seasons, and have some fun and make a decent amount of money, or even if he is out, then he will go to Saudi league and make 100 million a year or something. It's not really that much of a troubled situation he is in, because either case makes him be happy or at least he should be happy.

I have seen him be unprofessional before, we have all seen him during covid time with him attending wedding and all that, none of that was stopping Liverpool from giving him more and more, maybe it's time Salah gives them some time this way they could make a better decision. He deserves a contract, but what kind of contract is questionable at the moment.

He deserves a contract, but what kind of contract is questionable at the moment.

Salah has said in previous interviews that he does not want to retire yet and that is why he has no thoughts of Saudi Arabia. When we look at his statistics, we see that he is still one of the best in the world, he is at the top of the league. He also said that he wanted to be successful in the Champions League. So no matter how much money they offer, I think Salah will want to play in a team where he can become a champion right now. Maybe in a few years we can see him in Saudi Arabia to make money, but for now I don't think that will happen at all

This is the reason why Mbappe not as successful as when he was in PSG, Mbappe approaching Bellingham, but Bellingham choose to talk with Rudiger.

The players don't have a good chemistry, Ancelotti should being assertive and make the players to respect each other, make Mbappe to feel Real Madrid is his home.

If Mbappe still can't perform, I think we already know who was the one make Mbappe can be like this.

Are you joking? Mbappe was successful in PSG caused by any players should have feed him with the ball. He had Messi and Neymar helped him, yet no UCL trophy for him. You call Mbappe successful at PSG, but he never won UCL, weird. 

I'm sorry, but Mbappe has decided to choose Hazard's path, he's gonna be a flop. People were very weird to labelled him as the next Ronaldo. Mbappe is finished, and i hope they put him off the pitch. Real Madrid better without him.

What I don't fully understand about the financial fair play rules is what would happen if they did indeed get relegated because of legal trouble and then the Manchester City sheikhs would be willing to continue paying all the players those high salaries, would that be allowed or would they break any financial fair play rules if they had to go down in the Championship? I wonder what the baseline is there to determine how much it is allowed to be paid in salaries to all the players.

They will not be able to pay those players from their own pocket, players salaries are paid from revenue generated and they are not going to generate anything  near half of what they're currently generating. It's against FFP.

I think Man City is still able to pay salaries to its players even though they are relegated they still have enough finances to pay those salaries, City will also not last long in the Championship I think in just one season they will return to the EPL and become a strong club there again after that they can generate income as usual.

Saudi ìs wants to sign Mohamed Salah for the next season.

after they allowed MANE to leave the club and go to Al Nasir, refusing to initiate another contract with Muhamed salah will only suggest that they don't want to enjoy this era that is gradually getting to them now that they have a great chance of winning both the premier league and the champions league with the help of Muhamed salah considering that both man city and Liverpool are both struggling in both tournament. how can you let go of your highest goal scorer at a time when you need him the most? at the time he had some fracas with Jürgen Klopp, it was getting clear that he isn't in the best of relationship with the club but that should not be enough reason to allow him to go out from the club at this important period.

even though salah is already 32 and will be 33 by June next year, going to the Saudi league at a time he is still firing will not be the best of decision. his openness to the media regarding Liverpool's refusal the extend his contract is an indication that he is willing to stay as long as the club wants him to stay. it's now left for the club to release a statement about the fate of the Egyptian Stricker but regardless of the decision, salah is not something that another club wouldn't rush at if Liverpool are not interested in him again

That seems to be a problem for the club.  Ancelotti will have to be clever with the substitutes so as not to be too shaky but believe the substitutes will not be as optimal as the main players then this will certainly be more of a headache for Ancelotti.
Don't know if the list of injured players will be out for long? Given that the UCL match is still very important to win if some of them don't recover this will be a mess again.

Its big problem for Carlo Ancelotti have many player out due injury and most of them take around three until four weeks later for recovery, Real Madrid have two matches every week until play at FIFA Club World Cup at the next month and Carlo Ancelotti must be smart how to make rotation avoid get other players have been injury. I think Real Madrid president Florentino Perez must prepare much money for signing new players when January window transfer opening or Madrid will get difficult keep in La Liga or UEFA Champion League tittle race in this season.

For Champion League match, have many days take recovery after around three weeks but Madrid get busy schedule matches in domestic league match and will play at FIFA World Club match before facing Atalanta, however when January window transfer opening Madrid must sign new player at the early window transfer opening or difficult keep in the tittle race.

[Alpha Marine]

It will be a tough job for Real Madrid, too many key players are injured, but strangely Florentino Perez still shows no interest in recruiting new players. I mean Madrid is financially stable and what's wrong with a little extravagance in buying players for the good of the club. Don't be surprised if Real Madrid in the Champions League suffers bad luck after losing badly at Anfield. Being in 24th place in the standings is enough to give the coach a red light.

They just got Mbappe who they gave a signing bonus and receives a high salary. Vinicius also receives a high salary, so it's not easy to get another expensive player that will get a high salary. If you notice, Madrid is eyeing a lot of free players next summer like Arnold, Davis and a few more. They want to use that strategy to balance the books. The media not focusing on it doesn't mean they have the luxury to sign whoever they want, they're just in a better place than Barcelona.

Madrid has a lot to do if they want to have a very good team again. The midfield they have is not good enough. They have ball winners in the midfield, but they're not creative enough and they're not press resistance enough so when they get the ball, if the opponent presses them, they'll either lose it or not do anything meaningful with it. They need a defensive midfielder like Rodri and a CM like Kroos, but I wouldn't mind if they go for a more creative attacking midfielder like Wirtz and join him with Camavinga and a DM in midfield. Even their defence needs a lot f work. They need another CB, they need a RB and  a LB. Mendy is not good enough and Cavajal is old and injury prone. Its achievable if they put their mind to it.
Right now, what could have saved Madrid is if the front 3 of Vini, Mbappe and Rodrygo clicked well and all on top form, but unfortunately, only Vini has shown that he's ready to carry the weight of Real Madrid.

It seems like the news about Mbappe is getting hotter after making a mistake and I think isn't it too early to say Mbappe failed?
I know how we feel as bettors or maybe as Madrid fans, but I prefer to think logically that there will be nothing easy to fight with a big team with several other players.
I also always say and repeatedly say that Mbappe is likely to experience a decline in mentality and must adapt longer because he previously competed in a league that was not too big and now has to compete strongly in a bigger league.
We have to be patient to see how far Mbappe will end this season. Will he end up successful or will he continue to perform badly.

[Palakka]

Ooops! Camavinga is out, the list has increased and Real Madrid is in more troubles.
Alaba out;
Cavajah out;
Militao out;
Rodrygo out;
Tchouameni out;
Vini Junior out;
Now Camavinga out;
I am very sorry Ancelotti, it seems you are going to struggle longer with Pep.

This season their hopes of being able to become a contender for the UCL title with the current unequal squad condition very small, the number of injured players, the lack of team cohesion and also the poor performance shown by Madrid at this time actually shows the need for significant changes in their squad, with the current condition of course Ancelotti needs some new players, especially in their defensive line which is too fragile at the moment,  But I think with Perez previous statement that he does not want to enter the transfer market in January later, of course it hints for us not to expect too much from Madrid this season, because it will be difficult for Ancelotti to return to their form later.

So no matter how much money they offer, I think Salah will want to play in a team where he can become a champion right now. Maybe in a few years we can see him in Saudi Arabia to make money, but for now I don't think that will happen at all

Salah's future is now on Liverpool's hand. He has said it louder his team has not yet handed him a new contract extension. I was seeing it as a signal form him if he wants stay much longer in his current club. Many fans are also chanting the club to extend his contract as soon as possible.

Salah has a half of season remaining at his current club, and i hope Slot will help him on this. It will really disappoint us if he leaves at the end of season.

[Velvet78]

Saudi ìs wants to sign Mohamed Salah for the next season.

Yeah this is no surprise to me honestly. Because if I'm not wrong Al-Ittihad was the Saudi team making an offer to sign him before. But as it was out of transfer window in Europe, Liverpool didn't want to consider it much.

But now I think the probability of seeing him leaving is higher than ever. Salah actually seems open for new contract offer by Liverpool. But there is no such negotiation yet.

Arsenal need a new striker and the target is Viktor Gyokeres, also Alexander Isak is on the list.

They have been after Gyökeres for quite a long time. At first Sporting wanted too much for him. It must be around 100 million euros which was his release clause. By the way rather than Isak I would push for Osimhen as he is going to be available for 75 million euros.

It's strange to see Florentino Perez, who is usually very active when the transfer window is available, but now making a statement that he will be on hiatus in the January transfer window, even though his team is facing an injury crisis and there should be a new face to fill the hole.

But I think that might just be his strategy, so he can close the deal quietly without worrying the other teams who might also be eyeing their targets. Let's just see if all his words will be true or again he will make a surprise.

That is quite a shortening of the facts because there are two parties to the dance. Yes he has said it, but he knows that bringing this up among the fans forces Liverpool into acting in his best interest. While there is nothing wrong about it, saying that it is all in Liverpool's hand is still wrong. Usually it is the players who are trying to squeeze the lemon until the last drop has dropped, but now Liverpool takes some time to prepare for unreal expectation from Mo Salah. I believe they are scouting the marketing for alternatives and if Salah demands too much because he can as a contract-free player, I think the right move would be to let him go. Players should do their part and clubs should do their part, so in my opinion it is in the hands of both. If Salah really wants it, he could say that the club has the right to take time as much as he has the right to take time for a decision.

For real? You want Ancelotti to be given a red light(sacked), after knowing that Real Madrid's poor performance is all caused by the key players of Real Madrid's been on injury. However, there's nothing Ancelotti would do in this situation Real Madrid finds themselves in, than to make use of the few second-eleven players of Real Madrid to fill in the gap of the injured players of Real Madrid, to play them in the Champions League and LaLiga matches. By the January transfer window, Real Madrid will be looking into signing other quality players to fill in the gap of the injured players for their LaLiga and Champions League matches, if they should remain in the Champions League till that time

I think that’s what we call determination. Ancelotti does not look like he’s threatened of his work that he won’t be able to deliver well the team even though much of the players are out injured. Recruiting more players may be an escape route for us if we are viewing it but he may not see it as a viable way out of this situation they’re into now. Bringing more players will just make the squad to be filled more and will reduce the chances of some players as their playing time may become more limited. They may be in the 24th position now on the standings, but I won’t be surprised if they end this round as a qualifying team and not even going for the playoffs. I need to check their opponents to play in the remaining three matches to know their chances of getting through easily or with some more hardwork.

You can't be playing in so many competition and keep managing players. I think Real Madrid needs to bring in more players to cover up for those whose injuries are long term. If the reserved players are not impressive, Carlo Ancelotti will have to get new players in this January transfer window. He might not necessarily need to get players that needs long term contract, loaning some good players is not a bad idea. They did it in the case of Joselu and he was outstanding. The Italian tactician might still have enjoy the support of the club management but he is under pressure to perform. Real Madrid is the defending Champions and having these poor results is humiliating. H

Saudi ìs wants to sign Mohamed Salah for the next season.

Mo Salah is on the form of his life and i don't know why Liverpool are yet to give him a new contract, at least a one year extension with an option of a further year. If Liverpool do not give him a new contract, it is possible that a top club in Europe might offer him a contract, Mo Salah still has the strength and quality to play at the very top level, so i don't think now is the right time for him to move to Saudi Arabia or any less competitive league.

[KTChampions]

These are good examples. I would also recall how Bayern did not want to extend Lewandowski's contract for more than a year (even though Lewandowski was in great shape) and in the end they parted ways. Yes, apparently Liverpool management believes that Salah is already a spent force and is looking for promising options that will definitely not require replacement in the next year or two. It's a tough business.

Bayern’s case with Lewandowski was definitely way different. Lewandowski didn’t want to renew not because of the wages but wanted to move because Bayern Munich had actually increased his wages, his refusal made Bayern to cash in on to Barcelona so they don’t lose him for free, Salah wants a new contract but the club isn’t looking to pay him that much

Hmmm... Friend, why are you arguing about something that happened quite recently and is quite well documented (news/web pages etc.)? Bayern offered Lewandowski +1 year of contract and he wanted a long-term one (3+ years of contract). A simple game when a seller tries to sell a perishable product wholesale, and the buyer is ready to pay only for retail and with a quality guarantee.
It ended in scandal and a scandalous split (Bayern forced Lewandowski to attend the first training session of the season even though his sale was a done deal).
The Bayern-Lewandowski case fits the discussion very well.

I know that Mohammed Salah still has the strength to remain in Liverpool and make more positive impact to the team but i see him as someone who will later consider to move to the Saudi league because he is not gaining much attention in Liverpool as he used to get before. The Saudi league has been offering to sign him since last season, perhaps he may finally make up his mind to move since they would offer him mouthwatering pay. I don't even think Liverpool wants to retain him either, if not they would have been making plans to renew his contract but yet they haven't made any comment concerning his future in the club. Considering the age of the Egyptian International Striker, it won't be bad if he decides to move to the Saudi league after this season especially if he is able to get at least one more trophy with Liverpool this season.

[bering]

There was a rumour that Manchester United this January want to buy 1 new striker and some of the players currently into their radar and one of them is Wolves player Matheus Cunha and this season although Wolves condition is not really good but Matheus Cunha was performing well this because from 12 matches he can scores 7 goals and i think this is impressive considering Matheus Cunha playing at weak team Wolves and actually Wolves representative has make a statement regarding this rumour and although Matheus Cunha is important for Wolves but if Manchester United can bought with decent price then Wolves are willing to sell him this January
