⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

According to an ESPN report, it says that Liverpool are interested in landing the Brazilian from Real Madrid since they've noticed that he might be available for transfer. But it's understood that no official bid has been placed yet for him as at the time of the report. Personally, i would love for Rodrygo to leave and go play elsewhere, at least he will be having playing time. If possible let him just go to Saudi where his guaranteed a starting eleven and a huge pay to accompany that alongside.

I'm hoping the same like you to see Rodrygo leaves from his comfort zone. However, Liverpool doesn't put his as their priority transfer as they're focusing on Ekitike. I guess they will consider whether to send Madrid a bid for him after they have done with Ekitike. I don't wanna see him to always warming the bench. It's wise for him to go to Liverpool.

Rodrygo is full of talent and it would be a shame to see him place at this stage in the Saudi league although if it's money wise then thats probably the best option for him but not all players love taking the bold movement of playing there. For me I think Liverpool is not a bad option for him and likewise arsenal too since they have already secured goykerez, it would be an explicit combo seeing them play together.

Age is no longer a major issue in football. Even at 40, you can still play for Italy's top teams. Players used to retire at 32 or 33. Now, age has advanced in football. Players like these can make significant contributions to their teams, thanks to their experience. They become like player-coaches, capable of making significant contributions on the pitch. That's why the signings of Dzeko and Modric aren't surprising. They're still players of sufficient quality to contribute to their teams.

When it comes to experience, there's no doubt that Modric and Dzeko have it in spades. Age may not be an obstacle for these two veteran players, but this might also be their final year. Fiorentina needs an experienced striker like Dzeko, who can consistently score goals and improve their chances of finishing in the Champions League zone next season. Meanwhile, AC Milan hopes to find balance in their midfield with Modric experience. I think both of these veterans will be able to make a positive contribution to their respective teams.

Of course, expectations won't be too high considering both are nearing 40, but at the very least, these veterans can be role models in the locker room and alternative options for rotation. I didn't expect Dzeko to return to Serie A after spending two seasons with Fenerbahce, and the same goes for Modric, I thought he would leave Europe to continue his career in Saudi or the MLS.

What Liverpool needs is a top 9 to replace their late player Jota and not a winger, they already have sharp wingers that are more hard working in both flanks, Daiz and Salah so I wonder why they'll be going for Rodrygo instead of using that money to sign a top 9 which is more important, expect they want to add more to their depth but Rodrygo can't be bought to be on the bench, he's a first team player.

 Instead of Signing Rodrygo I believe that Liverpool would focus on finalising the deal for Hugo with Frankfurt maybe after the they could consider Rodrygo if need be. It would be sad to see a talent like Rodrygo move over to the Saudi League at that young age but then he'll need playing time and that won't be guaranteed in Real Madrid with their current coach.

He could certainly go to Saudi Arabia, but I think what he wants is to play more in Europe. He'll go to Saudi Arabia anyway, so he needs to be over 30, or even 35, to go there. I don't think it makes sense for a young player of his quality to go to Saudi Arabia at his age. He could show more of himself in the Champions League and other competitions. If Liverpool are interested in him, I think he could leave Real Madrid and take his chances there.

Do what you want in life, but never be overzealous, or you'll struggle greatly.
This is my biggest philosophy in life.

I think Galatasaray is currently falling victim to this overzealousness.

Napoli is constantly making new demands because they want Osimhen so badly.

Their latest demand is a cut of the sale if Galatasaray sells Osimhen. I don't know if it's true or not, but I've heard something similar.

The Napoli president seems very stubborn. He's the one who previously rejected PSG's €200 million offer for Kvara and sold him to PSG for a lower price.

Galatasaray should be off the table; no other club would come in and buy Osimhen with a single €75 million offer.

I also think Napoli are being a bit greedy with Osimhen’s sale this summer. It is obvious that the player has no intention to continue with the club so why trying to hold him down by demanding a fee more than the normal, I think this type of decisions annoy players and cause them to act in a rebellious way just like Gyokeres has done with Sporting. Galatasaray have offered a fee that I feel is good for a deal to happen and Napoli should accept it and move on.

[bangjoe]

Napoli is in a dilemma about whether to sell him or not, as they currently have a striker in their lineup. However, Osimhen has great potential and has performed well with them. Therefore, I think they are still hesitant to let him leave Napoli and are considering loaning him out as an alternative, allowing them to see his progress as he gains playing time at Galatasaray.

Of course, if they continue like this until the summer, they will lose money, and Osimhen has considerable freedom if his contract with Napoli expires without Napoli receiving payment.

There was a report that Napoli was considering keeping Osimhen until his contract finishes.  But this report looks untrue because coach Antonio Conte didn't want the Nigerian from the beginning. The delay the club is experiencing now is due to the price tag placed on Victor.  Clubs are not willing to give out €75 million. Even if the club has the intention to keep him, I doubt that the players want to remain in the club.  He had a frosty relationship with the club management, and I don't think he would like to work with Conte.

If this rumor is true, it makes more sense. A poor relationship with management will result in a loss of playing comfort. It's safe to say that, to this day, there's no compromise between Osimhen and management, especially Conte.

This could be due to player selfishness, which is completely unprofessional. After all, he's contracted and paid to play. We just don't know what made Osimhen selfish and unwilling to work with Conte. This requires a compromise between the player and the coach.

Everton have submitted a bid  Douglas Luiz from Juventus but Aston Villa and West Ham can join the race.
Arsenal is very close to Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting, medical could be in days.
Arsenal is also going for Joao Palhinha.

Some news from BBBC

[SatoPrincess]

I have heard rumors of Newcastle’s interest in Ekitike from Eintracht but the info uploaded on Fabrizio Romano’s facebook page says Ekitike has informed Eintracht that he wants Liverpool move as top priority this summer. This will really hurt Newcastle fans to hear about this development. Who will win this race?

[GiftedMAN]

Wow what an incredible baller one of my favorite after christiano Ronaldo, a player like no other in his prime this most decorated real Madrid player, wow it's time to say goodbye from real Madrid I wish you the best of luck, and I still hope you deliver because I can always count on you, your body movement is second to none the passes, well I just hope you have a great experience at AC Milan in as much as age has cougth up to you I still believe in your experience, it is hard to say goodbye but we just have to.

Don't doubt that he will also make history at Milan, for me he is a very complete player, to hell with age, it's just a number and it's been proven that people like him and CR7 are in much better shape than many of the younger players, I hope that this belief about age starts to fade away around the world and they see that quality has no age.

If you guys are referring to Modric then yes age is just a number to that dude, he might not be very active in terms of strength and speed but he's still a baller with lots of experience and he'll definitely be excellent at Milan, they have younger talents what they need is a little experience like Modric to help revive the team and i trust he'll add to their success with his experience this season.

Mosquera's contract was set to run until June 30 next year (2026). So yeah, the contract has not expired but the options that was giving to Valencia was either keeping him till next year and let him leave as a free agent or sell him this summer and make some money out of him. You know which option is the best.

Gyokeres deal is still pending. Today you here they are close to completing the deal another day you hear Sporting is asking for a new fee around 80 million. Confusion between the two teams still persist.

I think Valencia made the right choice to sell and avoid losing him next summer for free because the player has already made it clear that he wants a move. In regards to the Gyokeres deal I think Sporting CP are the ones making things difficult, they are trying to frustrate both Arsenal and Gyokeres, I don’t know if this deal will ever happen.

Finally Manchester United have gotten their man and it seems many clubs  who have been pushing hard to get the players they wanted might happen for them today and tomorrow or maybe next.
Can Mbuemo play much better than he was with Brentford? Is he the missing piece?
He's a good player but the way things have been going on with new players going to Man UTD is something to worry about, with them losing their good form completely is what we have to look out for when they get new players. I wouldn't want to see Mbuemo struggling like Anthony did... Just like Bill Goldberg always ask, "who's next"?
What's your take on this player and his new club?

Mbeumo is a good signing, but I feel like United overpaid for him. If not for the fact that they're prioritizing premier league players this transfer window over players from other leagues, I believe they would have looked elsewhere. I quite understand Ademola Lookman wasn't on United's radar, but paying €50 million euros for him would have been a lot better than splashing £70 million pounds on Mbeumo.

I don't think the player was overpaid because he's worth that amount and you can testify that he played very well last season with a club as Brentford not the likes of City, Liverpool, Arsenal or Chelsea, he did all he did with a small club now imagine if he was playing for one of those clubs I mentioned do you think the amount would have been £70m? No, so he deserves that amount.
If you talk about Ademola Lookman's case, I feel he's the one to say the amount to get him is too small because how can a team pay for someone who broke the record of scoring 3 goals a hat-trick in the Europa League Final and he's the current African Best Player with that amount? Thats an insult to the player and Africa as a whole, at least the amount should have been more reasonable, well it has happened so no need to complain about tge money, let's see how the player contribute to the club.

Modric can still be a legend at Ac Milan looking at Thiago Silva at Chelsea and then Pirlo at Juventus. Although they were both younger when they moved to their respective club, especially Pirlo at 32 but they made a significant impact at the club.

I think Modric still has something to give Ac Milan pretty much. With his experience, he can find a way to control the midfield and avoid stressing his body. I watched Silva play at Chelsea. There were times where all he could used against more energetic players was his experience, thereby avoiding costly errors. I don't think the Serie A has much stress for Modric. I wish him success by the way.

This will really hurt Newcastle fans to hear about this development. Who will win this race?

Arsenal was also looking to get him before we saw Newcastle as the serious team to sign him (we know how unserious Arsenal is), later Liverpool saw a chance of getting Isak but they that's Newcastle said no to Liverpool's offer then the Reds moved on to get Hugo. It has been a very busy day that's yesterday in the transfer market now the player wants Liverpool and this was the same deal that made Manchester United to pay up every penny to get Mbeumo. Every player would want a club that will give you a trophy in a season, who wouldn't want that as a player? I don't think Newcastle can give him a gold medal that's why he choose Liverpool over Newcastle.

Finally, according to Goal.com in their statement, Napoli and Galatassry has finally come to a conclusion and reached an agreement for the transfer of Victor Osimhen. The transfer fee is €75 million to be paid across two year. €40 million to be paid upfront and the remaining €35 million to be paid in 2026, along this deal, Napoli added a clause for Osimhen never to return to any Serie A team untill 2027.  With this, after his now a Galatassry player, it simply means that Osimhen cannot play for any other Serie A within this time frame be it loan or as a permanent player.

Inter are strongly interested in Ademola Lookman and have officially presented an initial purchase proposal for the player.Loan with an obligation to buy for the modest sum of €40 million. Atalanta doesn't like the method of purchase nor the price offered because they're asking for 50 million!
From what we've heard, Inter have already received the player's approval to move to Milan! Negotiations between Inter and Atalanta have officially begun.
We expect news in the next few days

If you were a Liverpool fan who would you prefer - Isak or  Ekitike

Isak for 2025 has always been a campaign for most football fans wish for their club but Newcastle United are not interested to sell the player. He is the best striker in the Premier League so far.

Isak will be leaving for €120m if Newcastle agrees for Liverpool. While a bid for Ekitike has been sent valued around €80m

I would definitely prefer Isak because he ticks more boxes for me than Ekitike. It’s a no-brainer for me because Isak has already proved himself in the Premier League while Ekitike has not and for the sum of money being mentioned for both players I will rather cash in on a sure win with Isak rather than gamble on Ekitike.

I have never see a club that is bitter and hating like Napoli but I'm not in the right position to point fingers, we only see the things that are been posted on the internet and you can't really know who are really pushing agenda here but it look to me that Napoli is a very bitter club that one has to be very afraid if you are a player with a big ambition. Why are they trying to pin down Osimhen to Galatasaray else they are going to pay a fine if Osimhen left the club under 2 years.

Who knows maybe they think that after 2 years, that means he is going to 26 years old and he wouldn't be able that active and score goals like the way he is now but it's absolutely pointless because if it's Osimhen that we all know, he wouldn't rest until he get what he want and it's going to be profitable for Galatasaray. This Napoli really don't want Osimhen to be sold expensive but we are all here when it's happening, that guy will run back to another club.

Ademola Lookman is already interested in joining Inter Milan, i believe the negotiation will go smoothly. Ademola Lookman will help Inter Milan to revamp their attacks since we have seen him perform wonderfully at Atalanta, he is a very coordinated and focused player, he won't find it difficult to adapt to Inter Milan's pattern of play. He is a goal scorer and has already assisted many goals, Inter Milan will really have a good experience with the Nigerian striker. The deal might not be finalized at the €50 million that Atalanta wants but it will surely be higher than the €40 million and i believe that Inter Milan knows the quality of the striker, so they won't hesitate further to sign him to the squad so it's almost a done deal.
