⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Koal-84]

I'm already curious when Messi's deal will be fixed. Allegedly he has very high salary demands and Barcelona has problems with the financial fair rules.

There has not been an exception for Barcelona, so some players will still have to go, there are still some problems for Barcelona. I am curious how long it will take until Messi signs the contract, supposedly a 5 year contract.

Maybe Messi will give priority to his passion, Barcelona will not be able to pay Messi as high as before. However, I think Messi will decide to stay in Barcelona next season. Because he loves the Barcelona club. Last season he decided to leave Barcelona because of his conflict with President Bartomeu.

Brahim Díaz remains at ac milan for another 2 years/seasons - in addition milan has secured a purchase option after the expiration of the loan

Díaz contributed seven goals and four assists in 39 games for Milan last season. The Serie A side will play €3 million to renew the loan agreement. The option to buy will be €22 million. Real Madrid then have a buy-back option worth €27 million.

I still do not get why Dortmund is not selling Haaland, I mean I get that they have a price in mind but what are they thinking? Like 250 million? The biggest offer so far was 150 million and that is a whooooole lot of money, if they could make it public I am sure someone will offer them the amount they want as long as it is understandable.

The most likely reason in my opinion is, Dortmund may still want to keep the team stable with a player like Haaland and want to win the title at the end of the season. So far Haaland is an important player for Dortmund and it is natural to keep him in the next few season despite the huge offers that have come in for him. We might think that Dortmund could buy a lot of other players with the money from the sale of Haaland, but I don't think Dortmund will take this step any time soon. Haaland can still be sold, but at least he will still play 1-2 more season at Dortmund.

LOL Liverpool are struggling to resign Jordan Henderson their captain on a new contract and there is rumors that Athletico and PSG are both interested in signing him. Liverpool will not be able to compete with PSG wages that they will offer to Jordan Henderson so it is likely that Liverpool will lose their captain. They lost one of their best midfielders recently on a free and I do not see Liverpool challenging for the title without Jordan Henderson and a broken midfield.

Henderson has another two years in his contract with Liverpool which is afraid to not found later a good deal for him or to lose him for free like Wijnaldum so they might consider selling him for PSG and find a suitable younger player to replace him. The problem is LFC will lose a captain and not a normal player so it is quite complicated.
In the other side, PSG has a gold mine in Parc des Princes?

No other club would want to offer anything higher than that for a 20 years old player. He scored 41 goals last season which is alot for a 20 years old and it was super impressive but unless he could get anywhere close to this number next season, other club wont be offering anything as high as 150 million again.

28 out of 41 goals was scored in Bundesliga which is not the toughest league out there because Lewandowski scored 41out 48 goals in Bundesliga last season. We are talking about a 32 years old striker but still being able to score 41 goals in that league and thats basically show how Bundesliga is not on par with Premier League

arsenal london has signed a new player from rsc anderlecht - the central midfielder Albert Sambi Lokonga

RSC Anderlecht are set to receive a transfer fee of €17.5 million plus bonuses of up to €4 million for the central midfielder. In addition, the Belgians reportedly secured themselves a sell-on clause.

https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/news/view?id=389562

Belgian player Lokonga is still very young. He's 21 and I see little chance of playing Arsenal midfield. He can play for another team on loan for a season. He had 3 goals and 2 assists in 33 games with Anderlecht last year. After improving his football a little more, maybe he can play for the Arsenal team.

Another Arsenal signing whose existence I have just got to know about today.

The days when Arsenal would groom young players and nurture their talent into world-class beaters are now in the past. I am not trying to prophesy doom, but he's probably going to be bang average, just like the so many signings Arsenal has made in the past decade.

It's like they completely left even trying to sign good players or competing with other top clubs. A huge pain to their fans.

And I have the impression that Borussia Dortmund is just stuffing the player's price and trying to get as much money as possible. Because knowing the current philosophy of the club's existence and reading the news about the sale of Jaydon Sancho to Manchester United, the willingness to reduce the price of Julian Brandt from 30 to 20 million for Roman Lazio, as well as the latest news about the willingness to sell Markus Thuram for 25 million, it is difficult to expect that an exception will suddenly be made for Haaland and an attempt will be made around him to make a new club the hegemon of the Bundesliga, which would become a competitor to Bayern Munich.

We hope to see this player do well at Arsenal.Arteta have made about three signings so far this transfer market,but the players he has signed so far are people that you cannot totally rely on to deliver.Although from what I have heard ,Lokonga is a very good player who will complement Xhaka  in that midfield.Lets wait to see what he can bring to Arsenal team next season.

Looks like Chelsea maybe has stopped about fighting for Haaland in some way as they now offer 58 million for Lewandowski according to the latest German news !
If that offer is true Bayern Munich has to make the next step to offer more for that Lewandowski will be stay . But there is already the Contract til 2023.

Robin Gosens maybe also comes back into the German League if all things going good.
Leverkusen and Hertha BSC showed some interest , Juventus Turin also have an eye on him.

James Maddison has reportedly agreed to personal terms on a contract with Arsenal, while a formal offer to Leicester City could soon be on the cards.
According to Gary Stephenson on Twitter, Arsenal could be pressing ahead with a move for James Maddison after agreeing on personal terms with the playmaker. The Gunners are now expected to make a formal offer for the Leicester City star, which would potentially make him the North London side’s marquee signing this summer.

Could this be because of the arrival of Patson Daka the ex RedBull Salzburg striker??

I am not a Liverpool fan but this is quite absurd. Henderson is a team and club player,,, he knows the club values him and is responsible for everything he still wants to win more trophies with the club he is captain of and has plenty of years. PSG or Atletico? You cannot be serious and these rumors just show how crazy and speculative the transfer market can be.

Henderson out of Liverpool, this would be a bizarre decision. I can't see Henderson in any other club than Liverpool, belong to each other.
it seems to me that it will pass the same as Coutinho, and wherever he goes it will be a step backwards for him.

to be clear, I am not a fan of Liverpool. Even on the contrary.

i also think that Jordan Henderson will not leave his club...
he has so much experience, knows the club completely and is also a very respected personality and captain.
fc liverpool will not sell such a player who can pass on his experience to the younger players. many other clubs would be happy to have such a player in their squad.

Nobody submitted any bets yet, some clubs were willing to pay ~100 mil. Borussia is waiting for that ~150 mil offer and the general consensus is that they would accept such an offer.

Chelsea turning to Lewandovski might be a tactic to put a bit of pressure on Dortmund to sell, but Lewandovski would be a terrific signing for them as well. He will be 33 years old in August though and the fee mentioned is around 50 mil euros. Way too much - especially in current market conditions.

These things all boil down to one thing.  Money.  Henderson prolly feels like he is underpaid and he’s going to retire in 5 years or so...  Maybe less.  Anyway, he’s an LFC guy thru and thru but then he sees the likes of new guys Naby Keita getting paid higher wages than him...  So yeah, I’ll prolly want a new contract too.

Edit:  I’m not sure if Keita is being paid higher than Henderson tho.  Lol.  Too lazy to look it up.

Lewandovski is a good player. He is old enough but still performs well enough. He will be able to play effortlessly for at least the next two seasons. Chelsea have offered 100m for Haaland. I think that’s enough. Moreover, Chelsea is not a very rich club that will cost 150m for Haaland. They spend less money and build a stable team and perform exceptionally well throughout the season.

Moreover, Chelsea is not a very rich club that will cost 150m for Haaland. They spend less money and build a stable team and perform exceptionally well throughout the season.

Chelsea is a very rich club, and Abramovich has a lot of money, and after Chelsea's victory in the Champions League, he will want to win the Premier League and possibly compete for the Champions League Cup again. Therefore, after such results, he is ready to spend very many money, especially since he has already received a result from Tuchel, not only promises.
