⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[jostorres]

Borussia Dortmund's Erling Braut Haaland, says he has respect for his contract in an apparent hint the Norway striker will not be moving this summer. After all the stories, who really believes in such a scenario?
Barcelona are confident of completing the signings of Manchester City's Argentina forward Sergio Aguero, and Liverpool's Netherlands midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum, on free transfers within the next week. Both players are out of contract this summer. It seems that Barcelona, a club that is in big financial trouble, will get 2 very good players for free, which is great news for them.
Manchester United and France midfielder Paul Pogba, is seen as a "dream signing" for Juventus. This continuous saga about Pogba is already getting a bit ridiculous because it lasts too long and there are so many conflicting news and rumors.

Juventus signing pogba looks to be a bit more possible after the very disappointing europa cup finals, Pogba is known to be a reactionary person and could react by just going there or forcing his way there, when a player wants to force his way out, there is not much you can do about it.

The two players Barcelona will get is really something special, we are talking about something that would be insanely good for Barcelona but once again it is not helping the teams age average neither, it is not going to be a young team once again, sure get the players you can and get them for free if you can so that you could be alright next season, plus these two would take the team up a notch and that would be good. However this is a short term help, maybe one or two seasons, they should realize that Messi is retiring eventually, maybe in a few season or maybe 5 who knows but they need a replacement right now for sure, it is getting terrible how old the average becomes.

Wow. Alaba to Real for 5 years is a magnificent deal, if we can tie down a similar age player at Barca I'd be happy. That's literally the best years of a pro footballer's life all in for a good deal at Real.

Anyone think Atletico going to break a record bank to further strengthen their squad or are they going to keep same level of strength and experience there?

I think that it is really difficult to see him at Dortmund in the next season. He will most probably go to a really big club in another league and prove himself there also. He actually doesn't need to prove anything anymore but still I wonder whether he will adapt to a different big league. Werner is still having problems in the Premier League for example.

Hakimi is really close to joining PSG for an amount near 60m €.

He will be a huge gain for Inter but they need to sell 2 more players, they need near +100m € from the sells.

I would really love if Liverpool can bring in Patson Dakafrom Salzburg. His records this season are super impressive and he's just the right guy we need at the helm of Liverpool's attack - Sharp and dangerous. With Salah getting his contract renewed and Liverpool obtaining other key players, he would be a superb addition to our squad. This way, Klopp would have more options to chose from in the attack department when things doesn't go our way. One of our biggest hurdles in 2020/2021 season wasn't just defense but also our attacks. The trio of Mane, Firmino and Salah became ineffective in several matches, not scoring enough goals to win match. I really hope we can land this guy, his statistics speaks for him and he's very young too.

It is a really nice amount for only Hakimi. Then I assume that they won't even think of selling Lukaku or Martinez. It wouldn't be wise thing to do for Inter also. Because their effort was just priceless when it comes to the title.

Transfer rumours:

Manchester United are keeping tabs on Juventus and Portugal forward Cristiano Ronaldo with the Italian club open to offering the 36-year-old in exchange for France midfielder Paul Pogba. Given that due to the financial crisis clubs do not have the money for big transfers this scenario is even possible, in my opinion.
Tottenham are keen to begin official talks with Paris St-Germain on Monday in a bid to bring Mauricio Pochettino back to the club. Pochettino doesn't seem to be doing very well in Paris.
Tottenham are interested in Manchester City's Brazil striker Gabriel Jesus, 24, which could lead to a cash-plus-swap deal for England striker Harry Kane. Is this confirmation that Harry Kane is indeed leaving Tottenham?

Aston Villa's player Jack Grealish will sell by club after not play at the end match of primer league, I think he has many favorite club to get his sign and Tottenham is the best team to get many minutes play than looking for with bigger club like Manchester United or City. I think primer league still the best team for Jack Grealish to play next season.

Er what? Grealish is club captain, plays every minute of football with Villa when he's not injured, and already stayed after many tempting offers last season (as pointed out). How is he going to get MORE minutes at Spurs, who's got Kane as the captain and others guaranteed starting places?

the Manchester United coach has received funds of £ 150 million to bring in players in the summer transfer market, in my opinion the Manchester United squad right now needs a lot of changes to compete in the EPL and champion league  a next season, but of course £ 150 million is not a large enough amount for a a team that plays in the domestic league and is also a champion league next season, in your opinion, with this £ 150 million fund, which sector should Solksjaer really prioritize in order to strengthen his team next season?

Bloody hell that's a lot of money for a league experiencing supposedly pandemic-stricken finances. It's large enough, trust me, when you consider last season's outlay already, the fact that they might also boost that to 200M if they offload one or two expensive signings (Pogba, cough).

Transfer rumours:

Manchester United are keeping tabs on Juventus and Portugal forward Cristiano Ronaldo with the Italian club open to offering the 36-year-old in exchange for France midfielder Paul Pogba. Given that due to the financial crisis clubs do not have the money for big transfers this scenario is even possible, in my opinion.

I'm sure that Manchester United will try everything they can to bring Ronaldo to his home. I say it as "home" because I think his real home is really there. I would really like to see Ronaldo retiring in this club also.

I also think he will stay at Villa. He also signed a contract last year and a long one(4-5years) when there was heavy rumour of him being second target of United if they are unable to get Sancho. He is being heavily linked with City but I don't see him leaving him for a club who have a good density in squad and won't get much playing time there.

And as like buwaytress earlier said, he is not gonna settle unless he becomes like an Villain legend. He has good years, good squad now, crucial key player now and I think it is lining up perfect for him.

After Pirlo got sacked, Massimiliano Allegri has become the new manager. If Zidane was brought, then maybe Ronaldo would think of staying for more time. But I think he will leave the team definitely. I also hope that his new team become Man Utd. It would be great to see him playing there after years.

[buwaytress]

Ronaldo back at United? That would be 3 steps back for the club, but hey, I hope they splurge out to do just that and have an ageing forward line heh.

Yeah, for all these reasons and more... the intangible reasons you have to also take into account how well-loved he is at his club. I see something similar for Salah at Liverpool, who could have his picks of clubs at his peak age now, but he knows just how much he is loved there at Anfield and Liverpool, he knows how it was at other clubs, and he probably knows he won't find it elsewhere. Grealish has plenty of time and age is on his side for now. He'll stay.

This would be for the benefit of Manchester City if this deal happens. Harry Kane is way better than Gabriel Jesus. And who knows, maybe Gabriel Jesus starts performing much better at Tottenham in that case.

This deal will be great for both parties, it's obvious that City will go in search of a world class striker before next season, it could very well be Harry kane or someone else, and if Tottenham are interested in Jesus, then it's good for City as it would reduce the transfer fee to be paid for Harry. Jesus isn't good enough to lead the line for City, if he stays at the club, he'll more or less be a makeshift striker, thus he should start seeking regular playing time somewhere else. City have a fantastic team, they are just a bit short when it comes to the number 9 position, thus if they can acquire Harry, it'll be a big win for them.

Well the only attractive transfer for me was the rumor that Zidane will go to Juventus but once again Juventus board gave us the same coach who already had 2 chances with Juventus so I don't get it ...why bring Allegri back ? He can't win UCL so I think important players will leave including Ronaldo and DyBala. There was a serious hype among the fans and some players that Zidane will come and coach his favorite club... .

Also with Conte gone from Inter ...I can see Mourinho with Roma catching top 3 easily.

[DIA7]

According to MARCA, Antonio Conte is the favorite to train # Real Madrid next season.
After the exclusion of Alonso and Raul . Pochettino is still in link with the Parisian club .Lov's lack of intention to take on a new experience next season, makes the doors open for the Italian to be the new coach .
The spreading news says that Conte has requested names to be signed like Hakimi, Andre Silva.
In principle, this is nice talk, but we must first know the departures and know Conte’s ability to integrate and adapt to Perez and perhaps a new football manager after news of the imminent agreement with Luis Campos.
A very hot and very turbulent summer awaits the royal club and its fans, let's wait for how the end will be!

In my opinion, Swapping Pogba with Ronaldo is not a good choice for Man United because what Man United needs at the moment is to strengthen their defense and their midfield. But if Ronaldo really returns to Old Trafford then this is something good for Man United's business, because after all Ronaldo is a star player, and of course, Man United's merchandise revenue will increase.

^  As a pure fan, I’d loooove to see Ronaldo at the EPL again and at United.  I don’t care how old he is.  He’s good for the league.  I kinda want City to pursue a Messi acquisition now.    Should be interesting if it happens.  And Pep is prolly thinking he needs him to win the CL.  He could play him as a false 9.

Edit:  Ask your favorite bookies to open betting markets for player transfers.  I’ve been asking FJ and a couple of books but they ignore me.  If we all ask them, maybe they’ll see there’s demand and open those markets.

It seems that it doesn't take long time for Pirlo to find a new club. Successfully bringing Juventus to get Coppa Italia trophy is not a bad thing for a coach who has just started his coaching career. Rumor has it that Pirlo has received an offer from Sassuolo with an initial contract duration of 2 seasons. We'll see, whether he will accept Sassuolo's offer or not.

If Pirlo decides to take charge of Sassuolo's team, I think it will be a good decision for him. Sassuolo is not a bad team. If Pirolo can transform this team into a first-class team, it will be a testament to his worthiness. I look forward to seeing Pirlo's decision.
