⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[coinlocket$]

You may be right, but Barca is terrible at such business. They rarely sell players for more than they bought them. Player just can't gain value when siting on bench, or not evfn being in squad list. When I saw this transfer, some worst Barca transfers instantly came to my head, like Douglas or Keirrison.

Yeah here in Italy is a common thing,  a big team can manage like 20+ of these operations year to earn much money possible.
For the only factor to be on a big, the player earn value.

[DeathAngel]

As expected there weren’t too many major deals in January, it’s not a good time to buy players. Teams don’t want to sell players mid season.

Just heard Juve wants Van Dijk from Liverpool this summer.  But it's hard to take that seriously knowing that they want Pogba too for big money.

This is fake news 99%, Juventus don't have all of that money.

They can have the money only if they can sell DeLigt (clause 150m €) but if they sell him I doubt the will spend so much for a 28yo boy.

Is a "Messi's" cases happening?

Remember the care CR7?

Messi can leave Barcelona for free. Where he can go? Probably not in Spain/France/Germany.

Italy or England my guesses, Juve with CR7?

Probably back to home, Argentina  or Chinese league just like his former colleague Andres Iniesta. After achieving all with Barcelona i don't think Messi will be looking for new challenges like Ronaldo did... I just can't help but think that he will just go back to Argentina otherwise if he was to move to another of those top 5 leagues in Europe, he would have done it already. Honestly, He has nothing else new to prove or win in Barcelona.

It's not very nice things, especially when it goes out in public. But I don't think that such little drama can force Messi to leave. Barca would rather sack Abidal to satisfy Messi.
And I just don't see Messi playing in other European club. Maybe it's possible that he can go to Argentina before retirement. Asia is also possible. But Juve with CR7, how you can imagine this ?
@JeromeTash, just small correction, Iniesta playing in Japan, not China .

Just heard Juve wants Van Dijk from Liverpool this summer.  But it's hard to take that seriously knowing that they want Pogba too for big money.

If Liverpool are going to sell Van Djik, then the team wishing to buy him should be ready to bring over five hundred million pounds , I think that's the only sort of amount that they'll pay attention to. With how good Van Djik has been since he came to Liverpool and how good Liverpool have been since then, I don't see him leaving any time soon, neither do i see any team affording him, except they are ready to pay something crazy.

Did Chelsea sign anyone? I thought they were going to be really busy with signings this January.

[Pmalek]

Matuidi can now sign for a new team for free.

I doubt that will happen. I have read reports saying talks will soon start for a contract extension 
Some media report that a summer move of Mbappe to Real Madrid is long done. The teams are not going to comment on that during this season.

Thoughts anyone?

He will not come to Juventus for that price.
Juventus have not the money they reported, 170m €.

The Sun is a shitty paper for market info.
Van Dijk is too old for that money.

The max price that any team will pay for him will be max 100m€ but again he will stay in Liverpool.

Is easier to get Messi now at Juventus with Ronaldo than Van Djik

Ighalo has always put in his best irrespective of the club he players at. Hoping Manchester United toxicity doesn't affect him and he can shine as his counterparts Ndidi (Leicester) and Iheanacho (Leicester) are currently performing in the premier league. This deal just made him the first Nigeria to play for Manchester United. Can't wait for his debut.

The surprise of all the surprises indeed. Usually once you go to China, that is the end of your professional career. Maybe now this can signal a return of guys like Ibrahimovic from MLS and Ighalo from China League, who come back to play for legendary clubs. Maybe David Villa from Japan can make a surprise return to La Liga for a smaller club?

Anyway, I still hope my Spurs can land someone new in end of season. I am glad they waited and Mourinho did not go for rushed buys.

Transfer negotiations between FC Bayern and Leroy Sané are on hold due to a 3-month notice period with the player's former agents. Sané's new agency Lian Sports can only officially negotiate on behalf of the player starting from April 1st [@cfbayern, SportBild]

Bayern bosses are not very enthusiastic about the change of agents, but are not nervous because Sané informed them that he wants to move to Munich. Sané can imagine playing under Hansi Flick. What’s important to him is his wages and a squad that can win the Champions League.

Man City are slowly coming to terms with the idea that Sané will not extend his contract. Pep Guardiola has internally suggested the idea of a swap with Kingsley Coman, which is not an option for Bayern. City's asking price could amount to €95m [SportBild]

€95m sound like a fair price for Leroy Sané. At least noone talks about the crazy €150m price tag anymore.

[bering]

Kylian Mbappe looks not comfortable anymore in PSG that on the latest match against Montpellier he was looks angry after being replaced and the rumour was appears since yesterday that in this summer Real Madrid will attempts to get him and the price for Mbappe is worth more than 250 million euro if agreement happened

[LFC_Bitcoin]

In the end, the Emre Can operation turned out to be a €1 Million loan deal + a €25 Million obligatory purchase at the end of the loan contract if certain results are achieved by Borussia. The official announcement doesn't mention what those results are and what exactly was agreed.
https://www.juventus.com/media/native/investor-relations-docs/comunicato%2031012020%20can%20eng.pdf

Another Juventus player left the club. Marko Pjaca has been transferred on loan to Anderlecht.   

I think that deal works out best for both parties. Juventus & Can will be happy with the outcome. He should have just stayed at Liverpool.

95m is not a fair price for Leroy sane, he is now a prospect because he has been injured for close to a year.

Has only 1 beautiful performances laden year in the epl with city after poor performances , and gets hyped by the english and German press.

Shouldn't cost more than 20 in reality

Not sure about his valutation but his contract will expire in 26 months.

Again Real Madrid for sure have a lot of money but for the Fair Play Agreement they can't spend that amount without any sell, who will they sell? I think they can close the session with a -150m€ but more should be a problem even for them.

[DeathAngel]

I think if Mbappe is to leave PSG it’ll be to Real Madrid. I saw some rumours LFC like him & the feeling is mutual with Mbappe but they don’t usually sign players like that, they develop them & make them stars. Mbappe is an amazing player so whoever gets him is very lucky.

[Captain Corporate]

 The greatest option here is that, Real Madrid needs to get rid of Gareth Bale which probably will worth a lot of money as well so they would literally both go into the Fair play thing and also get Mbappe as well, that would be really the ideal situation. What would be even more ideal would probably be an exchange between Madrid and PSG with some money involved as well. Bale hasn't played a decent football for a long time and he is older whereas Mbappe is one of the most promising stars in the world so it is normaly normal that Madrid would have to pay an extra amount (whatever they have left on fair play). In the end maybe they will do totally different things but if I was part of the clubs front offices, I would try to get a talk in about this if possible, would benefit both teams honestly.

Oh come on, you know every noname player gets transferred for €20m+ nowadays and you're telling me Leroy Sane, one of the best players (if not the best!) in his generation should be only worth that price tag? In 17/18 & 18/19 he scored more than 15 goals in the PL/CL/Cup and got awarded best young player in 17/18.  So when exactly was your so-called "only 1 beautiful performance"?

[Pmalek]

Leroy Sane is worth a lot more than €20 Million. He has been sidelined for a long time with a serious ligament injury and many players have come back not looking like themselves in the past after difficult ligament injuries. We need to see in what shape he will be once he comes back. Not just physically but also mentally. You can recover your physical strength but the fear of contact and pain is a whole different story. He is young and physically he will be back. Lets see how he handles it mentally.
