⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[coinlocket$]

The Parisian club renews confidence in its Argentine coach, "Pochettino" until 2023.

They are going for Pogba to according to rumors now.
It is so easy to play without rules for them.

They had -200m€ for Covid but they already increased salaries by 150m/200€ ish, and already spent 70/80m for Hakimi.

On these 200 for salaries, they have the renew for Neymar also with the salary+taxes of the new players.

I think it will be better if PSG lets him go to Real Madrid. What for to defend him? He has no interest anymore to play in PSG. When a player already has no interest to stay, it will be a worse decision to keep him in the club. Imagine if the player won't show his best performance in the next season? It can a big problem both for the player and the club as well. The player price may decrease quite a lot and probably Real Madrid will be no longer interested t sign him. I hope PSG management won't consider experiencing this potentially bad situation.

You have a good point, but it's not really that easy to let one of your best players go, sometimes players don't really want to leave, but they make it look like they want to, so the club can address some issues they prolly aren't comfortable with (most times it's wages). Then again it does not matter if a player wanted to leave a club or not, I believe as professional footballers they always play to the best of their ability, cause they are not just playing for the club, but for their individual accolades and development, thus even if PSG stop Mbappe from leaving, he'll still deliver his best for them next season.

Having said that, the real fear for PSG should be the rather short time he has left on his current contract, if they do not sell him now, they run the risk of him leaving the club for free if they fail to convince him to renew his contract as the season progresses; and for a player like Mbappe that'll bring the club millions of pounds if they sell him, it'll be a big loss if he goes for absolutely nothing.

According to this source, Chelsea's young striker Timo Werner is open to leaving Chelsea this summer. He would like a move to a Bundesliga club again. Maybe he would go back to Leipzig again. I don't think that Dortmund or Bayern would like to sign him unless they lose their best strikers (Haaland and Lewandowski). Maybe Chelsea can use Werner in a swap + money deal with one of these teams for one of the two players I mentioned.

That is pretty much the only source putting it this way. What I just found is that Chelsea is allegedly planning to let Werner go if they can then realize a mega deal with either Lewandowski or Haaland. Werner's advisor said a few weeks ago that there won't be any transfer for Werner right now. I also don't believe that Werner wants to leave Chelsea. He is very likely earning a shit ton of money and it doesn't that much sense to let Werner go if Lewandowski or Haaland comes since both are playing in the center, Werner isn't. I don't think there is any substance to these rumors.

Yeah, maybe it's really like you said. And Werner can play as a winger also. If Haaland or Lewandowski comes to this team, Tuchel would prefer Werner as a winger in the starting eleven. He may be better there and contribute much bigger also, who knows. But if Werner still has a bad season again, then Chelsea would have no choice rather than getting rid of him. I also think that Chelsea are actually one of the perfect clubs for Werner. But the guy still has problems on getting accustomed to it.

Juventus is really close for Locatelli,  Euro Champion.
He got offers from Arsenal too according to sky sport but he was a Juventus fan when he was younger and now he only wants Juventus.

If the deal will happen this can be the only player bought for Juventus in this session.

[AndySt]

Marca says that Kylian Mbappe has rejected PSG's last contract offer. He really wants to go to Real Madrid now. And Real Madrid also want to finish this deal without having a problem. On the other hand, PSG don't want to lose him. He has only one year left on his contract. I wonder how this will end.

I think it will be better if PSG lets him go to Real Madrid. What for to defend him? He has no interest anymore to play in PSG. When a player already has no interest to stay, it will be a worse decision to keep him in the club. Imagine if the player won't show his best performance in the next season? It can a big problem both for the player and the club as well. The player price may decrease quite a lot and probably Real Madrid will be no longer interested t sign him. I hope PSG management won't consider experiencing this potentially bad situation.

It's just that Paris Saint-Germain is probably not satisfied with the amount offered for Mbappe and the French club is ready to play a risky game, as a result of which the club may not get anything in the end and release the player as a free agent. PSG also probably believes that another year of Killian's game at the Paris club is quite commensurate with the amount that the club could have saved in the event of the sale of the player. Also, the problem is that Real Madrid is not in such a good financial condition now to pay a good price for a player. I think that the player is professional enough to work out his contract to the end if anything happens and continue to demonstrate a good game.

If the deal will happen this can be the only player bought for Juventus in this session.

If we look at the background of Locatelli who was a Juventus supporter when he was young, it is very likely Locatelli did not hesitate to choose to
move to the club he had dreamed of since he was young. Moreover, we know Arsenal's track record, which is always unable to compete with other
teams when buying players. So I believe Arsenal will have to fail again to get Locatelli. Another thing Locatelli might consider is Juventus playing
in the Champions League, while Arsenal are not in the Champions League. We know almost all Europa players want to play in the Champions League,
so there is a very big chance for Juventus to get Locatelli.

I also think that Chelsea are actually one of the perfect clubs for Werner. But the guy still has problems on getting accustomed to it.

I would always let Werner play as a winger, maybe a little bit more positioned to the center, but not middle center. Middle center players like Haaland or Lewandowksi are a completely different type of players compared to Werner. Take all those wingers who are really strong, it is all about pace and 1 vs. 1 technique and strength. Werner has that. He would be a waste if his coach puts him middle center. How would you ever use your pace to its full extent except in those lucky situations where you get the ball in a counter attack and can run across the field. Werner is a winger to me.

[Ebede]

It will be a good long race with Spurs denying bids and City trying to make something in order to get Kane. Glad after Sancho-United- Dortmund drama we have something next to enjoy and talk about. 

Oh i guess there will be coming a few more enjoyable Dramas til the transfer window will be closing.
There are so many already , Lewandowski from bayern munich , the Haaland drama from Dortmund.
Its exciting to read all the news about the big players and possible Transfers that they maybe will be doing.

Yeah, I laugh at the transfer saga of Harry Kane, Tottenham regected the last bid for Kane,the Paul Pogba deal from Manchester United to where ever..... I'm deeply pain Paul Pogba rejected the deal offered to him and wants to leave.
Kylian Mbappe rejecting a deal from Paris saint German, having just a year in he's contract left and they don't want to miss him.

[acquafredda]

I would like to focus on Cristiano Ronaldo: he is expected in Turin next Monday to start preparing for the new season. But this is decision week, the one that should lead to the choice on his future. At the moment we know there are no signals. The Portuguese star still has a year left on his contract with Juventus and has not expressed, either directly or through the mouth of Jorge Mendes, his desire to leave Italy. In any case, the discussion with Juve will inevitably have to be faced, in order to understand if there is the will to keep working together. But if it is true that Mbappé is planning to leave PSG for Real, he could certainly be the man indicated to fill the gap left by n*10 at PSG.

[ILuckyGuyI]

Its still just a conflicting news about Harry Kane's move to Manchester City.
The Sun newspaper is tge one that confirmed a deal is settled and City will pay £160 million.
On the other hand The Athletic confirmed that the London club will not sell Harry this summer at any price!!
In my opinion its true that City needs a striker this to be realistic, but the unrealistic is to sell Spurs, the best striker in the league, to a competitor with them in the league.
And personally I don't want to see Kane in Man City because they will be a perfect team and the league is going to be boring a one side dominating the whole league while other 5-6 teams battle for tge remaining UCL seats.

It's really interesting yeah. Different sources say different things about this probable transfer. But BBC Sport was also claiming it if I'm not wrong. I guess they are a more credible source than The Sun and The Athletic. Let's wait and see what the next days will bring us.

I don't hear any rumors about Cristiano Ronaldo. He will probably stay at Juventus. At least until next season. And Ronaldo will do his best to win the Champions League title. If Juventus could have formed a slightly stronger squad, perhaps winning the title would have been easier.

Ronaldo is not the kind of player Juventus need to carry the champions league it's been over 20 years since they were champions, the mistake Juventus made was letting down of their young stars, Dybala and Pogba were the only chance of Juventus making it through go the final but they decided to let go Pogba a few years ago and since then Juventus have been buying World-class players to strengthen the team but nothing is working, Ronaldo at his age is a multiple champions league winner and does not care about it anymore, the hunger is not there, he is just playing for individual awards and not what the team wants, the arrival of Ronaldo ruined the chances of Juventus building a good team around Dybala, Douglas Costa. Juventus lack team spirit, they have all the good players to conquer Europe but they are just too fragile they need to introduce young talents into the team. Take a look at the Chelsea team.

Player who has a year left in his contract and doesn’t want to stay with the club...  But still has a ton of value in the transfer window.  There’s only one move:  Sell.  By January those clubs bidding for him now would just wait for a few months to get him for free.

Every time that some big star (or not) who has one year contract, doesn't want to renew and wants to join another club, I wonder the same thing. What can you possibly get as the present club from him, if he wants to go? Simple nothing. There is no logic for PSG not to sell Mbappe and I'm a bit surprised that they didn't seal the deal already.

Some club owners don't care if they lose a good player on a free transfer or not they just want players to keep to their words and keep to the contract agreement at least if you signed 5 years they expected you to renew and if not let your 5 years be 5 years. PSG are not ready to lose their star players just yet in fact they are recruiting more in an attempt to win the champions league for the first time

For sure when you sign a 5-year contract the club owner/ management expects to have you for 5 years and basically, invest in you. That's something quite understandable. What it isn't, at least from my point of view, is what you will gain/ get from someone that doesn't want to "work" for you anymore? Are you gamble that he will turn his mind? Maybe even convince him that this will be the year by winning the CL?

Transfer rumours:

Chelsea are poised to submit a £130m bid for Borussia Dortmund's Norway striker Erling Braut Haaland, 22, after owner Roman Abramovich gave his blessing to proceed with what would be a club-record deal. Does this mean that the winner of the race for Haaland is finally known?
Inter Milan are demanding at least £102.5m from Chelsea for Belgium striker Romelu Lukaku, 28, if the Blues are unable to sign Haaland. So, Chelsea decides between Haaland and Lukaku. Which would be a better solution for them?
Manchester City say reports they have agreed a £160m deal for Tottenham striker Harry Kane are nonsense. Does that mean Kane stays at Tottenham?
Manchester United anticipate a formal approach from Paris St-Germain this summer for France midfielder Paul Pogba. Where Pogba will finally go? The saga around him really lasts too long.
France striker Kylian Mbappe, 22, has told PSG he does not intend to sign an extension to his contract, which runs to 2022, and wants to leave the club this summer or next. Is it a call from Real?

If a player refuses to renew his contract and want a new challenge, understandably, some club would cash on him while some club owners would rather see him stays on the bench till the end of his contract if he refuses to be professional and do his job. Some players pushes for a transfer request to try and force a way out while some boycott training, those who boycott training are fined by the club for breach of contract. Every top team goes into the champions league competition to win the trophy it's always unpredictable who the winners would be. PSG spend so much money on Mpabbe and Neymar to win them the champions league at least so far they've not been able to do so and there is no stable club right now ready to spend that much on Mpabbe maybe 2-3 years from now his value would decrease

Mbappe is destined for Real Madrid that is obvious but I would be shocked if Haaland picks Chelsea over a team like barcelona or Real Madrid I am sure that real madrid have enough money for him and I think we will see both Haaland and Mbappe at the club eventually maybe not in the same window but I think Haaland will stay at dortmund until next summer where he will move to real.

[Avirunes]

Manchester United anticipate a formal approach from Paris St-Germain this summer for France midfielder Paul Pogba. Where Pogba will finally go? The saga around him really lasts too long.

I also saw those reports about PSG interests on Pogba and upon watching that I was like "still doing transfers?, just stop already you got everything with recent transfers what more do you want?". He has denied new contract being offered so yeah likely that he is gonna go there in his country playing for the best club in there. Also United will also be happy offloading one of the CDM's in which they have good density. So IMO its a win for United.

In other news related, it seems PSG fans don't want him at the club: https://metro.co.uk/2021/07/24/paris-saint-german-fans-hang-anti-paul-pogba-banner-outside-parc-des-princes-14982955/
