⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Juggy777]

I think if Real Madrid were to break the bank and poach another star player from the Premier league as Ronaldo's replacement that would be Eden Hazard. He is really worth his price tag whereas Kane and Eriksen might not adapt very well in Spain and possibly end up as very expensive substitutes warming the bench throughout the season. I reckon Real might make a move again for Hazard when next transfer window opens.

If Real Madrid do decide to break the bank it'll easily be more than 200 million bid, but I would yet call it affordable considering it's an inflated transfer market thanks to Neymar. Though it's a worthy investment, I wonder why not take Salah, with the speed he has, he'll tear teams apart in La Liga. Indeed you got it right, no team would buy Kane except in Premier League, he'll not settle well in Spain. I doubt January a transfer will happen, next summer looks more logical.

It seems like Real Madrid are preparing to make a huge signing before the transfer windows closes. According to some rumours from Spain, Radamel Falcao (Monaco) has been offered to RM, the player is willing to play for the merengues as he's looking for a new challenge in his career.

And according to Mirror, RM are ready to make a final offer for Eden Hazard who is very close to signing a new contract with Chelsea.

I wonder why would they even need Falcao , basically that player is already close to his retirement and It is not really worth to sign him unless it is free transfer. They surely needs Eden hazard or else there wont be anyone that could match up with Messi, they lost Ronaldo and now it is time for them to sign another potential " Ronaldo "

Some interesting news about Hazard refusing to sign a new contract at Chelsea and that's why:

CHELSEA star Eden Hazard wants the club to qualify for the Champions League before he agrees to sign a new contract.

But it now looks as though the Belgian will not move to Real Madrid before the Spanish transfer deadline on August 31.
Chelsea will instead move to offer Hazard a new deal at the club, improving his weekly wage from £220,000 to £300,000.

However, according to the Times, the forward is unwilling to commit his future to the club until they have regained their place in the Champions League.

So if Hazard stays for the moment at Chelsea but they fail to position in top 4 at the end of the season Hazard might want out in the summer of next year. Looks like Hazard's future with Chelsea depends on how the team will perform this season.

Hazard is acting a little much now. He got all his fame because of Chelsea, if he wants to stay ,he can, otherwise he can  just leave.

Real have got around 8-9 days to finalize the contract with Hazard, and the likeliness of them signing him is going down by the minute, Chelsea have declined past offers, but if Hazard starts acting like Courtois, then he will eventually move to another club, which may or may not be Real Madrid.

it will be very difficult for Hazard to leave Chelsea this season because of the transfer window in England closed and Chelsea will not be able to replace him. Chelsea allowed Courtois to leave because he had only one year remaining in his contract also he had his family back in Madrid and he pushed hard to move out also Chelsea managed to get Keppa before the window closed for Hazard he still has two years left so he is not yet to being his final year andhehave not many reasons to leave only if he wants a new challenge but Chelsea will definitely hold him back for one more year before selling him and with Sarri things could change and maybe Hazard likes to stay with the new manager.

I didn't really think of this, but if Hazard leaves, they don't have a good enough replacement for him. Hazard has had amazing seasons with Chelsea, except for one season, where he had like 5 goals. 

I don't know how Sarri has been handling, I am clueless on whatever is going in the PL. But I heard this, Arsenal are still losing ,even with the new manager.

Surely Chelsea won’t let Hazard go now will they? Would derail their season to sell him when they’re unable to bring in a replacement.

[tokeweed]

^  That used to be what I was thinking.  But now, seeing that Chelsea is rebuilding under their new manager, it's better to sell Hazard now to get as much value they can now cos they are gonna lose him in the future  anyway (and for less)...  

Hazard could be thinking how wrong he was in choosing Chelsea over City when he came to the EPL from Ligue 1.  Lol.

This was even what I was thinking with Arsene Wenger. As in, not to sell him but how could Arsenal ever let him go? But that kind of thinking clouds judgment and if they had let him go a season earlier it could have been much better.

But sorry back to topic, what I'm saying is that Hazard appears to be their best player on paper. But if everything is constantly built around him, then rebuilding Chelsea might not work. And look already at how Sarri is giving players fresh leases on their playing careers.

So I agree. Sell Hazard now and get value for money. He's not someone who'll stay if Chelsea still can't compete.

I'll agree times have changed drastically we're the generation witnessing abnormal inflated transfers, and Hazard transfer should not come as a surprise to me if it happens. I believe Chelsea shall be a complete winner, not only can they get 180 million plus for him, also they'll be able to pick one star at loan from Madrid. That cash could be used to restructure their team for future seasons.

@tokeweed interesting and some crazy Manchester United fan theory doing round is Mourinho is going to be replaced by Conte, although Zidane is also in the fray, but imagine if Conte is the man to replace him I guess it'll be Karma for the way he ousted Van Gull.

The odds on Mourinho getting the sack are just increasing, with his third season syndrome kicking in as bad it may sound but my money is on him getting sacked, he's doing everything to get sacked, what do you'll think.

if Mourinho gets Sacked i rather see Ryan Giggs as a manager instead of either Zidane or Conte, no one knows what the club needs more then him since he was the one that played the most under SAF and knows how to bring back the way SAF was managing the team that is playing the offensive way that United used to do, it was a terrible summer for united, and it looks like its gonna continue through the year especialy after last Sunday Mourinho lost the confidance from the fans that were not sure if it was great idea to keep him butin my opinion United needs no stop rotating managers after a year or two and have some stability before intering and era when every new manager get's sacked in his second season for not achieving the fans objectives in the first one.

Zidane is and always has been one of my favorite people as a player, but I'm not sure I ever thought he was a great manager. Sure, Real did well, but how much of that was down to Zidane we can never really know.

I would also see Ryan Giggs as the spiritual successor, there is no one else right now more United than Giggs. But then again, is he the right guy to take the club and put it back on track? The fans aren't really disunited yet, just unhappy. They aren't on the verge of collapse or crisis either, just losing the way in football. Giggs would be perfect if United were in total disarray, but they're not. They just need a steady hand, a experience manager but also one who is young enough to want to try adapt to the modern football of Manchester City and Liverpool.

I have been reading that M'bape transfer to Real is still possible .He is still in PSG on loan
Now everything depends on UEFA and his decision regarding financial  Fair Play if decision will be negative for PSG Real is ready to spend 150 mln euro

Yeah, there are some people saying that PSG won't trigger the purchase clause, which is €180m, due to some regulations from the FFP (Financial Fair Play Regulations), one of them being that PSG buying Mbappe would brake the salary limits of the squad.

I think PSG will figure out a way to hold Mpabbe, I doubt they'll sell one of their key players to Real Madrid and strengthen their squad, after all, RM is a potential rival in the main objective for PSG: the Champions League.

Latest rumours/deals:

• Yannick Bolasie (Everton) to Aston Villa done deal.
• Galatasaray interested in Gary Cahill (Chelsea)
  
• Paco Alcacer (Barcelona) very close to joining Dortmund on loan.
• Karius (Liverpool) will joing Beşiktaş on loan (two years).
• Liverpool keen on Pavard (Stuttgart).

[slaman29]

Karius going to Besiktas is probably the best deal he can ever hope for. There was no way he would ever play for Liverpool again despite all the support and backing even from Klopp, and it's hard to ignore when Becker has given them 3 clean sheets so far. First time I ever heard of a 2 year loan deal! Did they lose their keeper and want to have Karius as backup while they look for someone permanent?

Anyway, none of the rumors now are very interesting. All the big deals are done, and I don't think Mbappe will want to move now.

[tokeweed]

No way Mou is gonna be replaced by Conte or Zidane.  I think Poch is the perfect replacement.  Sure he hasn't won anything major (yet).  But he's as close as you can get to Fergie.  He encourages youth talent and his quick passing/high pressing/attacking style would suit the 'United way'.

it's not a great idea to put faith in FFP to allow you to sign a player, I'm sure that PSG have weaseled their way out of this situation somehow because if they didn't found a way to fix this problem they would have tried to sell players that not very necessary to them like Rabiot Jese Draxler and other more so I'm sure that PSG will not be selling Mbappe or Neymar any time soon. And for Hazard it's rumored that he will not be joining RM as he wanted to play under Zidane in Madrid but the Frenchman left that means he will stay one more season with Chelsea until he figures out his next move.

EPL clubs can’t register players for this season but the European market is still open. EPL sides can sell to European teams, their market closes 31 August.
