⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Arsenal is trying to sign Nico Williams by triggering his release clause which is 58 million euros.



I assume they are going to try their luck in January already. But I think it won't be easy to convince him. Because if you remember Barcelona also wanted him and the money was also ready. But as far as I know, his big brother Iñaki Williams asked him to stay for another season. This resulted in his staying at Athletic Bilbao. I would really like to watch him play for a top team honestly.    He has a big talent and shouldn't waste it there. Arsenal would be a really good choice for his style as well. I think he will adapt to Premier League football too.

In as much as Arsenal might be interested in signing Spanish winger Nico Williams, I don't think he will be willing to move to Arsenal instead he will favour a move to Barcelona instead. I think Barcelona is the favourite destination for Nico Williams and I don't think no matter of pressure Arsenal applies I am not sure Nico Williams will want to leave Atletico Bilbao so soon since he's just signed a contract extension with the club.

Considering how talented he is and the great potentials he possesses, signing Nico Williams for £48 million I think will be a huge bargain for Arsenal. After William's unbelievable performances in UEFA Euros last summer, was when I came to conclusion that he deserves to be playing for a better club than the Athletic Bilbao. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is very good at helping young talents achieve their full potentials and I don't think Williams will be an exception

Jose Mourinho wants to hire some more players and that why he is about to hire another player from the top European teams. Fenerbahçe hired Jose Mourinho to get the team to improve because the other teams in this country have players like Osimhen and that's why hiring Jose Mourinho was a great help for them.
Now it seems Jose Mourinho asked the team to get improve and hire some players, this time he asked for Son Heung-min the superstar player of Tottenham who playing there for years. We all know Son Heung-min is one of the most effective players in this team and especially after Harry Kane left Tottenham he was the most important player for them.
That's why I think Tottenham will try hard to keep Son Heung-min for a longer time.
Son Heung-min scored seven goals in the 23 games he had so far for his team and even missed a penalty kick recently.


 

Even though Jose Mourinho wants to hire some more quality players that will be able to add good depth to Fenerbaçhe and also rival opposition teams in the league, going for Tottenham's captain Son Heung Min might be a difficult one because I believe that Son will want to remain in a more competitive league and also Tottenham might demand a hefty fee for his service which will make it difficult for Galatasaray to be able to sign him.

As long as the money offered for the release clause can be quite in accordance with what Bilbao expects, it seems that this can still be possible, especially I think this could be a good step for Nico Williams so that he can further hone himself to be better and can compete in better competitions and clubs.

But indeed all decisions return to Nico actually in this case because of course to start at a new club clearly needs a more adaptation especially the intended club is the EPL where the tension is much higher than La Liga so maybe this should be of more concern to be seen by Nico.
It's just that if in the end Nico succeeds Arsenal, the competition for the position of winger or attacking midfielder in the line up will look interesting in the end because for now Arsenal still have players like Martineli and Trosard who do have the same position as Nico even though Nico's role can still be more flexible later.

So it's true that this will be Mohamed Salah's last season at Liverpool, this has been in the news after Salah's interview and Skysport.

He said this is his last year at Liverpool and will give everything including wanting to win the Premier League and Chamion League trophies.

So far is this Salah's own decision to leave or is it from Liverpool's own negotiations that there is no progress?
I think Real Madrid will be ready to sign Salah in the summer transfer including TAA too.

I don't think Salah will be able to stay at Liverpool till the end of the season. It's so mean for Liverpool to not wanting to offer one of their outstanding players a contract extension at the club after all he has done and given for the club. PSG, Saudi teams are going to come for his signature and tithe Saudis will surely be able to offer him a contract that will be enticing to him.

Indeed, until now there has been no clear news about Moh Salah's contract extension at Liverpool or not. even, like: no progress about the contract extension. However, he still said that this is his last year in Liverpool. So sad to know this.

Could there still be some experts that they are considering. when we see the progress of Moh Salah's development so far this season, it is truly incredible. even he was able to finally surpass top scorer Haaland in first place with 17 goals, 3 goals above Haaland, as well as assists and other contributions to Liverpool. This will be a turning point if they release Salah.

Barcelona have finally returned to 1:1 Fair Play after receiving a cash injection from the sale of VIP Boxes and have also received approval from the league to register Olmo and Pau Victor. This is an important step for Barcelona as they can recruit players normally including bringing in Nico Williams. Barcelona could raise some funds in the January transfer window by selling some of the players who are unused in Hansi Flick scheme, while they are also considering Rashford as a potential addition to their attacking line.

It's a shame if Liverpool has to let him go to another club. he played well at the end, and playing impressive on every match. I don't know why they let him go on just like that, the management should hold him at least 2 years from now. But, this is football, we live on industry where all around with money. Liverpool have thinking it and they need a fresh money to build and regeneration team should be better in future. So, if I were him, I will go to league where you will be welcomed. Yes, Salah still have power to realize being the world's best player. Move to La liga is the best choice if he has the opportunity to choose.

Liverpool have not released Mo Salah, they are trying to keep him at Anfield longer with a new contract offer. Arne Slot certainly does not want one of his mainstay players to just leave for another club, Mo Salah always contributes to the team with goals and assists in almost every match. Letting him go would be Liverpool biggest mistake and he doesn't need long to find a new club because with his current ability, top European clubs will compete to get him, especially if his status is a free agent.

It will be good to see Nico Williams in the Premier League, teams like Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United will be praying the player should accept to leave Atletic Club so that they can sign him, going to the Premier League will make  Nico Williams shine and become a star player, Coming to Manchester United or Arsenal will be the best place for Nico Williams.

Coming to Manchester United doesn't seem good for Nico Williams' career who wants to taste success in the Premier League because Manchester United is now experiencing its worst season so it's better to come to Arsenal or Chelsea I think these two clubs are better because they are progressing and if Nico William comes it will add strength to this team yes although it can't be guaranteed but as far as I observe Nico William has the potential to be a good player so he must be able to develop his career in the Premier League.

[shinratensei_]

If Arsenal are able to pull the deal this January it would be one of the best signing, he's young, talented, skillfull, got speed and a proven player based on his performance in the last Euro's tournament. After the tournament I felt that he would be joining Barcelona last summer based on the good relationship with Yamal but Barcelona were not really financially capable of pulling the deal but managed to sign his Country man Dani Olmo who on the verge of leaving Barcelona as a free agent. Well I see this as a big opportunity for both sides cause he'll be a good addition to Arsenal based on their race for the title and Arteta is known for building players to be in their best form and performan well, I don't think Nico Williams would have a tough time blending in at England, though it an entirely different league and environment but he'll settle down well, it's not left for Arsenal to find a way and convince the player then trigger his release clause, they can't afford to miss out on such opportunity cause it a big boost to their squad and extra leg in times of fatigue based on the tough schedules ahead.

Nico Williams transfer is indeed wanted by Arteta. This move will help him to overcome injured players. Saka is also reported to be injured, so Arteta needs to get a player with speed like Nico Williams.
Arsenal will definitely need some players with good skills to rotate. You are right, that is because the match schedule is quite tight and to maintain player fitness, Arteta must think of several players who can share positions to minimize the risk of injury.

hmmmmm... interesting. They try to bring Nico to increase the depth on their RW positions. Meanwhile, they have Sterling and Marquinhos available for that position.

I'd rather see sign Nico is Arteta's effort to balance Arsenal's wingers. They're too often flanked from the right side and rarely did it through the left side. I also rarely saw Nico played as RW as well, and i'm wonder how well when he play on such position.

I wonder if Liverpool want to rely less on some great players who are getting older like Salah or if they want to immediately overhaul the players by filling more young players to make it long-term investment and can create more productive squad.
There are more than one or two senior Liverpool players who will run out of contract without any official renewal regarding contract extensions, this makes everyone confused because all the players are the main squad members and at the same time make Liverpool look so strong in the Premier League and UCL this season, they are really unpredictable and difficult to understand about how the next steps are to be able to maintain consistency and improve performance more strongly.

Since Mikel Arteta has identified Nico Williams as a potential player for the club, I think he will be able to fit in perfectly at Arsenal. Nico Williams is a fast, tricky winger which fit perfectly into Arteta’s style of play. I believe Arteta should be able to convince Nico Williams to sign for Arsenal because Arsenal are a bigger club than Atletico Bilbao.

[joniboini]

they are really unpredictable and difficult to understand about how the next steps are to be able to maintain consistency and improve performance more strongly.

Hiring Arne Slot probably means they still want to compete at the top while maximizing every player they have. I'd not be surprised if they're looking for another Robertson or debut academy player to find the next Trent. At the very least I don't think their spending habit will change much. They won't overspend unless they can sell players, they'll also prefer players with cheap prices if the risk is worth it, like buying Chiesa for example. I mean the squad isn't that bad, other than a lack of replacement for Salah, another CB, and probably a left-back. They can probably go another window without buying anyone, whether that's the right decision or not is up for debate.

Another rejection came for Barcelona from La Liga. It has been three times La Liga rejected Barcelona's request to register Olmo and Pau Victor. The better for Barcelona to release their players for free. I hope Olmo moves to the Premier League instead stayed in a broken club. 

Hopefully, La liga keeps reject Barcelona's request to register them. 

Olmo must realize if this is not a good club for him, and shall move forward.

Has this been confirmed because as far as I know now Dani Olmo is still unable to be registered even in some current news reports La Liga has deleted the names of Dani Olmo and Pau Victor at this time.

Official staff of the FC Barcelona 2024/25

So in the end, if this site is true, it means that Dani Olmo is still not registered and Barcelona's steps including the sale of VIP boxes as you said also still cannot stabilize Barcelona's finances at this time.

So in this case instead of focusing on other players who cannot even be bought at this time their focus should remain on Dani Olmo and Pau Victor who are still not registered and it is more likely for Barcelona now that they are more introspective about their financial situation so as not to take financial problems too lightly because in the end this is like a time bomb for them where buying players by force like this time of course the same situation can also be repeated in future seasons if they continue like this.

But you can see that even Amorim made a mistake and thought he would go there and lead Manchester United to the top of the table in no time, but everyone could see that this is not going to happen.

It's really a sad thing because this team is a testament to what good football has been throughout its history. The Premier League at the moment is largely dominated by Leverpool, under Rud Van Nistelroy it was something else, they won as if they were champions. I think the bad thing here is still the coach, Amorim hasn't hit the nail on the head of what he can do good for the team, not just Antony, all the players look bad, for me from Bruno to the goalkeeper they don't show any spirit, they don't show any life there, something is happening for me at the club.

Blaming the coach would be too short-sighted. Amorim has made a mistake that I think can be excused because of the money. He was a coach for Sporting, probably at 3-4 million a year, then Manchester United asked for him and offered him 10 million a year. From a human being perspective, honestly I would have done the same.

Bit in retrospect I think one day he might think that it would have been more exciting to push through with Sporting than to get destroyed with Manchester United. But in the moment money is king and he went for it.

Honestly speaking, if arsenal can pull this deal off, by signing Nico Williams, it's actually going to be a major burst for their title aspiration because he is a top quality players that will certainly improve their team, but the major problem here is that it would be very difficult for them to acquire this players because his mind is already set on a move to Barcelona just as you have rightfully said, but the only good news about this is that, due to the ability of Barcelona not being able to register player they bought, with that in mind, they wouldn't be able to sign Nico Williams, and I think that  would be the opening for arsenal, but as for now, let them just hope that Barcelona wouldn't be able to pursue this particular deal because he can't be registered if he is signed.

Barcelona will try to re-register the two players through other channels Barcelona do not want to suffer losses for this refusal of registration even though they do not realize that they do not have financial stability.

Dani Olmo's heart still wants to be at Barcelona, but this way makes it more difficult for him in a lot of hassle, I don't know where he will go after several rejections.
Maybe Barcelona will have to let him go? And his agent will have to find an alternative?

He is still young and his future is still very long, so he must immediately find a new club for his future. I wonder how Real Madrid will take over this player?
It will definitely be very painful for Barcelona, ​​but is there a possibility that Real Madrid will be interested and bring in this player? I hope they will be interested in this and make Barcelona angry.
But is this player also interested in joining Barcelona's rivals? I hope he doesn't think about that, because the most important thing is that he has a career for his future, yes even though there is a risk that he will be hated by Barcelona.
