⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[ShowOff]

I'm not really interested in discussing the salaries that Messi or other star players receive at PSG. The important thing now is how the coach can create a trio of attackers who get along well and help each other to win titles for the team. Messi, Neymar and Mbappe will be very scary for the opposing team if played together by the coach, but if these three are not connected well then it will not help the team much either.

Mmmm..  I’m not too sure about that.  You have to consider that they have other guys like Verrati and a couple of others in that midfield and a great manager in Poch.  Poch is the primary reason why Messi chose PSG.  Outside of Barca, he wanted to work with Poch.

Yeah they have a very good squad so I don't think 1-2 injuries will give them a headache or hold them down. They have good midfield with Wijnaldum, Veratti, Ander Herrea (who have been delivering some really good balls). Good defence with Marquinhos and wing backs like Hakimi who has a very great pace and now they recently brought in at loan pacy left back Nuno Mendes from Sporting. In attack, I won't say anything everyone knows what they have in there. They are right now the prefect team ready to get in some trophies.

It is said that Real Madrid are preparing to loan Dani Ceballos to a club again in January. As we know, he was loaned to Arsenal for 2 years before returning to the club. And I can't say that his performance there was really good. It seems like Real Madrid want to get rid of him as soon as possible. They signed the 25-year-old for €16.5m from Real Betis. And now, there are some speculations like he could go back to Betis again.

It's obvious they ain't got him in there plans, he may end up not playing a full season for Real Madrid.
Higher prolific players like Mordric, Kross, all lined up.
You should maybe go out and have a bit experience in La liga,this actually shaping and grooming before a possible return.
He's services will be needed two years time, because Kross and Mordric will be worned out players.

It is also true, yeah. Modric is already 36 years old that he might even retire in one or two years. Kroos is also getting old as he is 31 now. He is injured now but he will be back early October. For the central midfield position, they have Valverde (23) and the new transfer from Rennes who is Camavinga (18). Maybe Real Madrid thought already that they would give the most chances to these two players. That would be the reason why they want to send Ceballos on loan or maybe sell him if they get a reasonable offer. However, it would be good to keep him at least as a rotation player as he is not an unskilled player.

PSG is a great team now that should win the Champions League. With Messi, Ramos, Mbappe, Hakimi, Donnarumma, Di Maria, Widjalum, if they cannot win the Champions League this time then there will be a question mark afterward.

I agree 100%. After the failed transfer of Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid (probably next season!), PSG is also the crystal clear favorite to win the Champions League this season for me.

Look at their strikers, the absolute madness. How can they ever lose a game with these boys? To be honest, if you only look at the names and the market values of the players, PSG should not lose a single game. However, the beauty of soccer is that there are always surprises and even the biggest favorites have bad games.

But seriously, if they really manage not to win the Champions League again this season, they will probably never win it.

PSG are definitely the clear favourite to win the CL, even according to the bookies.

They've got all that it takes to go all the way if you look at their transfers in and the squad they've got, but the Champions League can be very tricky it's not just about being good enough, sometimes you really need to have luck on your side, It's a season long contest and there will be injuries, and tricky match ups.

Look at their strikers, the absolute madness

There will be only 11 players on the pitch maybe with 2-3 forward or attackers, the attackers will not only play the midfield or the defense, a team full of world best players do not guarantee trophy you need more than world best players to compete, you need team work and not individual play, PSG lacks team play judging from their past matches I've watched and this has been their problem the past 3 years. Messi will not perform magic if the team is not well organized.

I must agree here. Mbappe, Neymar and Messi sound frightening, but they do not help much in defence, and sometimes it takes the whole team to defend. Ramos is injured one year, the big question is when and how he will return.
At this moment, I think they can't beat Chelsea or Manchester City.

When Neymar Jr. is dispossessed with ball you hardly sees him track back to defend, he will arrogantly walk on the pitch, the guy is a very skillful player no doubt about that, however football is a team work every forward players has to assist their defenders if need be Messi too might have his own defensive limitations in falling back to defend, however I think Mbappe shouldn't have any problem of defending because of pace, he can quickly dash back to assist defensively as well as sprint forward in counterattack.

fc barcelona and fc liverpool are said to be interested in the german 19-year-old national striker Karim Adeyemi.
he currently plays for rb salzburg and immediately made his debut with a goal in the match against armenia on sunday.

ransfermarkt can confirm through multiple sources with direct knowledge of the situation that Liverpool and Barcelona are interested in signing the forward. Both clubs are now preparing an offer for the upcoming winter. Adeyemi renewed his contract until 2024 in January 2020. According to sources, Salzburg will ask in the region of €30 million for the 19-year-old striker. That fee is in the same region as what Salzburg earned for Patson Daka (to Leicester City) and Naby Keïta (to RB Leipzig now Liverpool).

Messi, Neymar and Mbappe will be very scary for the opposing team if played together by the coach, but if these three are not connected well then it will not help the team much either.

In my opinion, of course, Messi will need time to adapt to the game strategy applied by Pochettino, as was done at Tottenham, Pochettino prefers an attacking style of play with high intensity, while Messi is the type of player who often holds the ball for too long and also has skill in dribbling the ball, besides that of course it will be a difficult job for Pochettino at this time to unite messi and mbappe, because this is the first time mbappe has played with Messi, while Neymar in my opinion understands and it will be easy for Pochettino to put him together because they have played before together with Barcelona.

[Coyster]

At this moment, I think they can't beat Chelsea or Manchester City.

I think so as well, or even if they will be able to beat them, it's going to be a 50/50 chance for the both teams, what that means is the teams are going to be evenly matched and anyone could end up winning, quite a lot of people feel PSG is going to blow all the teams away in the champions league this season, but I scarcely share the same views as them, PSG is going to be a formidable team in the CL this season, but I'm not sure they are going to come out as the winners, there are other favorites like Bayern, Chelsea and City, it's going to be a 'competition' from start to finish and no team is blowing the other away.

[baeva]

I do not get these people trying act as if going to Turkish league is demanding for them. Yes, if it was Ronaldo or someone like that then I would understand but Bouna is not playing any games on Bayern unless there is a huge fatigue problem with injuries all around, even at that case they would prefer a youth player to take the ropes and get experience if they didn't have Sarr so it is nothing for Bayern. Hell Pjanic moved to Besiktas the other day, PJANIC,, if he can go to Besiktas then so can Sarr, even would be worse for Besiktas and they are lucky that Sarr declined and instead they got Pjanic.

I hope that Bayern doesn't do something stupid and try to fire the guy though, even if he doesn't worth much, he still worths some money and they could make a profit on him, they need to keep him at the team until they could simply get a decent offer.

So if no one wants to buy him, what are they going to do? How are other teams going to rate him if the guy just doesn't get on the field. From that we can conclude that he's not good enough to come out as a substitute at least. Either the coach really doesn't think he's playing at the club level, or his agent did something to raise the price of his contract to get an extension or get kickbacks. That happens too.

[terrorJR]

yes and it can still happen because indeed anything can happen and even for the current season I think PSG will not be easy to get past the champions league especially to become champions considering that from the group phase they have to meet City which incidentally is one of the British giants who Both are eyeing the Champions League, besides that, don't forget Leipzig, which was indeed able to trouble Dortmund and Bayern's dominance last season in the Bundesliga.
quite a difficult prefix for psg.
but with the current line-up I'm willing to bet bigger on psg.

In my opinion, maybe only Manchester City will be the toughest opponent for PSG in Group A, while Brugge and Leipzig I'm sure will not provide significant resistance for PSG and Manchester City later, last season Leipzig was able to trouble the two big clubs in the Bundesliga , but at the moment leipzig is not in a good condition and even they have only won 1 win in the bundesliga, it can be said that after julian nagelsman and some of leipzig main players left, leipzig had a slump this season.

their game in the group phase will be quite impressive indeed and they are very favored with man city considering it is true that now Leipzig seems to have lost their spurs in playing because considering their coach and core players there have been some who have moved to new clubs whose clubs are even bigger than them , and this is a blow for Leipzig and you could say this is like a very fatal blunder.

but this does not make the reason PSG will always be safe because in terms of football anything can happen regardless of whether the team is strong or weak. although from the statistics it is very superior in all respects.

As it stands, Kingsley Coman will not extend his contract at FC Bayern, which runs until 2023. According to sources close to him, Coman favors a move to the Premier League. Liverpool FC and Machester City are reportedly interested in signing him.

Barring a turnaround of events, Kingsley Coman will not extend his contract at FC Bayern. After PSG, Juventus and Bayern, Coman dreams of playing in the Premier League. Liverpool and Manchester City are eyeing the Frenchman [@AlexisBernard10]

FC Bayern is facing the loss of another player after David Alaba left the club after several years this summer. I'm curious to see how things develop or if Kingsley Coman will change his mind. The season has only just begun and things can change again quickly.

Chelsea failed to bring in Frenchman Jules Konde from Seville, during the summer break, the latter refused, to enter into negotiations with his English counterpart.
Despite that Chelsea signed prominent players this season, such as Romelu Lukaku and Saul Niguez, but he does not seem satisfied with these reinforcements, but rather wants to continue his quest for Conde again.
The Jounal of the Evning standard talked about the  expectance of Seville, wanting to obtain 80 million euros. On the other hand, Chelsea aspires to persuade Seville officials in the negotiations directly, to reduce the value of the deal in the winter Mercato, on Hope to win the player's signature in the first season.

Chelsea is reportedly not giving up on getting Jules Kounde from Sevilla, whereas last summer's transfer failed because Sevilla asked for a price
increase from the previous agreement. Especially after Sevilla rejected Chelsea's offer, according to some media Kounde looked annoyed and did not
enter the Sevilla squad when dealing with Elche. Seeing this situation Chelsea decided to move again to be able to get Kounde in the upcoming
transfer market. Moreover, Chelsea failed to extend Antonio Rudiger's new contract,  according to the media the contract offer from Chelsea was
far below Rudiger's expectations. This is also the reason why Chelsea again decided to try to get Jules Kounde.

The player wants the move and was very disappointed in Sevilla management for rejecting and increasing the transfer fees from the initial amount agreed, Jules Koude removed Seville from his office Instagram page and Twitter I think the deal will go through January, Chelsea are still interested in him

It was reported that PSG are willing to sign Chelsea centre-back Antonio Rudiger. And he has only one year left on his contract. It seems like he is not Chelsea's number one choice for the position considering the number of matches he played in the last season. He played for only half season. It would be a nice transfer for PSG and they wouldn't pay any transfer fee. I don't think that he would be in the starting eleven but he would be a good alternative.

Dude shut up you do not watch Chelsea games, Rudi never missed a game since Tuchel took over 6 months ago his is one of the best performing defender in Chelsea and Germany right now, Chelsea are still in discussions with his agent to find an agreement over his new deal. pSG will only make a move if the deal with Chelsea over new contracts crashes and not because of playing time. Rudi will work into any team starting 11 now

[EdenHazard]

According to the news I heard, Real Madrid are planning to offer a deal to PSG striker Kylian Mbappe which is €30m per year next summer. As PSG turned down their €220m offer, Real Madrid will be able to sign Mbappe for free at the end of the season. But I'm sure that PSG don't regret it. Because they don't need money. They just want to see Mbappe playing with Messi and Neymar for one more year. And their main goal is to win the Champions League title.

The amount placed on Kylian Mbape is simply too much,when I hear of such amount,I feel like,is he the best player in the world?he is so highly rated that one begins to think whether he is the best player in the world.No doubt about his qualities,but there are players who plays more better than he does,that are not this rated.

Real Madrid will be lucky to get him for free next summer,but for this summer,they are looking at the possibility of winning the champions league,so will not probably let their best player leave like that.

I agree that this amout of salary per year is really huge. But he is really one of the best players in today's football. And he is only 21 years old now. His current yearly salary is €28m at PSG. So, it is totally normal that he would demand more from Real Madrid. And in the coming years, this amount can be even bigger after contract renewals or maybe a transfer to a new club.

PSG , real madrid and manchester city are the only club that can afford to pay 28m euros to a 22 years old indeed , im not saying that the other clubs like barcelona , juventus, manchester united or chelsea couldnt pay such amount of money tho, their current balance sheet is just not fit to make a transfer saga.
speaking about salary ... messi currently lay at the top of highest-paid football player list with 50m euro annually before tax , insane.

Considering ESPN, Chelsea are preparing to offer a new deal to Sevilla centre-back Jules Kounde. Bu they are hoping that Sevilla decrease their asking price to €50m. I think it is already obvious that Sevilla don't want to sell him normally. They would think of selling him if he performs really bad. And a club can get him by paying the release clause also. But it must be over €70m now and it is really a huge amount of money for the player.

I agree that Mbappe's potential salary did not come from scratch and is comparable to his current salary at Paris Saint-Germain. Of course, you can call it madness, but these are the realities of the market and Real Madrid simply acts according to the laws of this market, otherwise Mbappe, for all his childhood sympathies for Real Madrid, would have chosen another club if he had been offered significantly less at the royal club. Super clubs should correspond to their status, including in terms of remuneration, but this is dangerous territory when a player does not justify the tasks assigned to him. If a player is able to give a result for the team, then you should not look at his age, because the age of the player is quite short and it is unknown how long it will last, and therefore the desire to earn as much as possible for the rest of the player's life after his career is clear.

Rudi will work into any team starting 11 now

I agree that Antonio Rudiger was the first choice after Tuchel became Chelsea coach, even in this season alone Rudiger has always been the starting
eleven. Rudiger is a defender that Tuchel wants to keep, even according to the media Tuchel has given input to the Chelsea management to extend
his contract. Unfortunately until now Rudiger has not agreed to the offer given by Chelsea, because it is still far from the expectations that Rudiger
wants. Unlike his colleague Christensen, who reportedly has his contract extension going well. I hope Rudiger and Chelsea reach an agreement,
because I think Rudiger is a good defender. If Chelsea fail to extend Rudiger's contract, it is reported that PSG and Bayern are interested in signing Rudiger.
