⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[judas]

Real Madrid still seem to be after signing Manchester United's world-star midfielder Paul Pogba at the end of this season. As he is really close to have 6-months left on his contract, he will be available for free for any clubs. Real Madrid don't want to miss a really big opportunity to sign a player like Pogba without paying a transfer fee. If Manchester United don't start playing better than this, Pogba can really think of leaving the team to join Real Madrid.

Transfer rumours:

Teenage FC Dallas striker Ricardo Pepi is attracting the interest of a number of Premier League clubs with Liverpool, Manchester United, Brentford and Brighton among those interested in the 18-year-old American. I admit, I've never heard of this player and I don't remember the last time an American player succeeded in such a strong European league, but it will be interesting to follow this player.
Argentina forward Paulo Dybala, 27, has all but reached an agreement with Juventus over a new contract. So, it seems that this football saga is finally over.
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is looking at Real Madrid's Germany midfielder Toni Kroos with the 31-year-old's current deal set to expire in 2023. How realistic is it that Kroos, after so many years at Real, decides to go to another club?
Atletico Madrid and Urguay striker Luis Suarez wants to stay at the club beyond the current season. The 34-year-old has scored five goals this term but his deal ends next summer. Suarez was probably the best free gift Atletico has received in its history.

Brendan Rodgers denied that Youri Tielemans rejected a contract renewal. Seemingly, teams like Liverpool and Manchester United are planning to sign him at the end of the season. Tielemans has a contract running until June 30, 2023 at Leicester. His market value is €55m now. And he has been one of the most impressive players of his team this season. He scored 2 goals and made 2 assists in his 8 PL matches. It's totally normal that a big team want to sign him so Leicester can have a hard time renewing his contract.

I seriously doubt that Barcelona really wants him, sure they might be in the mix in order to keep Madrid pay more, right now Barcelona got rid of griezmann and messi contracts so they could technically afford to pay Mbappe a lot, but not to get him, they can "offer" a fake deal, which Mbappe and Barcelona both would know that it will not be a real deal, but at least Mbappe will be able to tell Madrid that Barcelona is offering a lot.

In that method Madrid will be forced, if Madrid ends up offering less, then Mbappe could stay with PSG if nothing else works, and Madrid would basically make a world star guy who wants to join very unhappy by not offering more than anyone else. So, it is a tactic by Barcelona to get Madrid spend more than they have to.

I would severely doubt that Mbappe considers Barcelona as the next station of his career. Really no. Sure you know never can't tell 100%, but if you were Mbappe, would Barclona be a club right now that you would love to go to if you could choose any club you want?

[cryptofrka]

The interesting part of City's impressive goal scoring form is that for the most part of last season and thus far this season, they have been lining up without an orthodox striker, that's amazing and I'd not be surprised if they do not go after any striker in the January transfer window.

The interesting part will be if they get a striker like Kane or Haaland - a multi-dimensional player they can also build their attacks around. Guardiola is smart enough to know his playing style is not suited for most attackers that only attack space or play direct football, but if he manages to buy one that can also help them switch play, hold up the ball and build attacks with positional play, it will bring their game to yet another level higher. Scary to imagine.

They will have to get rid of a few good players though to make it financially possible - but Sterling has been free to leave for a while though.

^ I don't think Kroos is going anywhere. He has already said several times that he loves the club and wants to finish his career over here. Moreover, he's happy in Madrid. And Dybala renewing is good news for Juventus as he's been an integral and also an important part of the team after Ronaldo left. Luis Suarez still has at least 2 seasons at peak form after which he will start decaying his form. So he can serve the next 2 or 3 seasons for Atletico and then maybe play somewhere like MLS where he can play pressure-free.

So far Youri Tielemans has played a fairly important role for Leicester United and if they lose Youri Tielemans it will certainly disturb the balance of their midfield, especially so far Youri Tielemans performances have been quite consistent in assisting the Leicester City attack and he often scores important goals for  leicester city victory  so far. Although now his contract with Leicester still has 2 seasons left, but Leicester must continue to maintain it with a new contract  if they don't want to lose Youri Tielemans, especially since Manchester United, Real Madrid and Barcelona really want to sign Youri Tielemans in the transfer market later.

AC Milan is reportedly currently eyeing two players from Latin America to strengthen their defense this season, although currently AC Milan are quite consistent in winning in the league and they are unbeaten but it seems that defense is still a priority for them to improve the this season,  and one of them is By bringing in Gleison Bremer (Torino) and also Yerry Mina (Everton), it looks like the two defenders will be good replacements for Alessio Romagnoli who also doesn't want to extend his contract at AC Milan.

Youri Tielemans seems to be on-demand right now. Every big team like Liverpool, Manchester United, Chelsea, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Athletico Madrid seems to be interested in this 24 year old Belgium international. But we can say that Barcelona might not buy him considering the financial crisis they are in. But the other teams seem to be really interested and I think real Madrid and Chelsea will surely approach him.

West Ham United manager David Moyes believes any club showing an interest in midfield ace Declan Rice missed out on a "bargain" by not snapping him up in a £100million deal.

The England international, who helped the Hammers register a fifth win in their last six matches in all competitions with a 3-0 win over Belgian outfit Genk in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday evening, has been heavily linked with an exit from the London Stadium for more than a year, including a switch to Manchester United.
United were keen to add a new defensive-midfielder to their ranks during the summer and Rice was on their list of targets, but financial constraints brought an end to any aspirations they had of securing his signature, following the arrivals of Raphael Varane, Jadon Sancho and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Newcastle to become a strong team does need a lot of changes in all sectors, in addition to the coach and players that must be improved, Newcastle must fix other sectors including management and directors. Marc Overmars is a strong candidate for director of football, and Paulo Fonseca as strong candidates to fill the coach. If these two great men succeed in bringing in Newcastle, I think it will make a big difference for Newcastle. We know how Ajax's performance is currently so extraordinary, it is not only the contribution of Erik ten Hag as a coach, but also the role of Marc Overmars as director of football for Ajax is quite large. Then many people doubt the ability of Paulo Fonseca, even though if we look at his overall track record as a coach is quite good. Indeed, when he became coach of Roma did not give any trophy, but when he was coach of Shakhtar Donetsk for three seasons he managed to give 7 trophies for Shakhtar Donetsk. So if Fonseca becomes Newcastle coach that's a good thing, I believe Fonseca can get Newcastle out of the relegation zone.

I am sure after being owned by a huge billionaire, richest football club owner as far as we know, I am sure they could do even a full on new stadium and training facilities and youth setup as well. Look at City, they are a great team that spent money, but now they have a great youth system that promotes players like Foden, all thanks to spending money on youth setup.

I believe Newcastle will definitely want to win something right away, even if not a cup, at least be at the top or around so that they would look different. This means they will need to spend a lot of money on manager, players, staff all around and so forth but that doesn't mean that they won't plan for future, they will try to spend money on those stuff as well which will be a lot of money but they will be able to do it for sure, I believe they can spend that much money on it if they want to.

Who tells you Real Madrid will have to pay more, yet he's contract is ending this coming summer. I mean, once Mbappe refuses to extend the contract, of which he has so far rejected a couple of times, them it's game over for PSG.

He will be a free agent by next summer transfer window and from how things look so far, he's focused on going to Real Madrid.

[Rengga Jati]

Yep that's not going to happen at all and Mbappe's desire is to go to Real Madrid for a fantastic salary so there's a strong chance he'll definitely go there if PSG keep him.
.....

Yeah, there will be always rumoured that will make this situation hotter and hotter and this will be continuing until the day exactly happens.
Let's see what will Mbappe choose for the next season.

What's these rumours am hearing about mbappe bitterness in mind about the g.o.a.t joining them in thier team?
I don't really know how true it is though but that's it.!

Since the incident, there are always rumours about Mbappe who are rumoured to want to move the club. And some large clubs are rumoured to be Mbappe's goal. The most often is Real Madrid.
But lately, there are rumours that Barcelona also wants Mbappe. But we know how the problems faced by Barcelona are currently related to Financial.
So, we just wait for the continuation.

If the information is correct, then Barcelona wants to offer Mbappe a signing bonus of 90 million euros, unlike Real Madrid, which seems to want to offer 50 million euros. Barcelona also seems to want to offer a large amount of salary. Paris Saint-Germain also continues to cherish hopes of keeping Mbappe, which after the crazy events in the summer transfer window no longer looks like such an incredible event. Also, the option of a winter transfer is not excluded, when Paris Saint-Germain can agree to a transfer, and Real Madrid will try to close this issue as soon as possible, which also implies more spending by Real Madrid. Mbappe can focus on Real Madrid as much as he likes, but the financial interests of the footballer's family also play a big role in this world.

Everyone can say whatever number they want, anyone can throw anything out into the air.

Fact. Barca have over 1 billion in debt. FFP will not let this extend further.
Fact. We have signed long term contracts to our youth. We already want to focus on the future. This is a rebuild, not something Mbappe wants to join.
Fact. Real have more money than us. And are there for the short term. Fits Mbappe perfectly.

Agreed with all the mentioned points. I don't know where the Mbappe to Barcelona rumors are coming from but there is simply no chance of that happening.
With all that was written - Mbappe is also a huge Madrid fan. Even if Barcelona had all the money they are supposedly offering, Real would still be able to match it to get Mbappe and he would go there - because he's a fan and also because Real is currently a much more stable team.

We have seen some crazy stuff in football but this isn't one of them.

^^ I don't think Mbappe will sign for Barcelona. And another thing is that we all know that Barca is very broke in terms of financial situation, won't this transfer make the situation worse for them? Mbappe has said several times that he wants to play for Madrid so I don't think even though Barca is offering a huge amount of money, he will sign for them.

Milan's management has been identified with one of the main goals of the club. Journalist Nicolo Schira reports that the "red-blacks" are going to renew the contract with defender Theo Hernandez.

According to the source, the Rossoneri are ready to offer the 24-year-old player a contract until 2026 and a salary of 3.5 million euros.

Recall that the current football player's contract until June 2024 and Hernandez receives 1.5 million euros per year.

Laporta already said that they have a debt of about €1 bn. So there is no way they can sign Mbappe that too with this huge money after that. Even if they do so, their situation will get worse. And Mbappe has said a lot of times that he loves Madrid. Even his mother said that they wanted to leave the last window so that PSG could get some money from the transfer fee. So it is highly unlikely that Barca will sign him.

He will be a free agent by next summer transfer window and from how things look so far, he's focused on going to Real Madrid.

It is not about transfer fee, if Barceloan offers 50 million euro per year, and Real offers 40, then Mbappe could go to Madrid and say "Barcelona is offering me 10 million more, so you have to offer me 10 million more or I will not sign with you" and that is how Barcelona is helping Mbappe to get more money from Madrid to make Madrid a little bit poorer as well. Since there is a salary cap in La Liga as well, that means Madrid would have to cover most of their salary cap with just one player, just like Barcelona did with messi for so many years.

All in all it is clear to me that Barcelona is not trying to get Mbappe, they do not have the funds for it, they need to rebuild, but they are definitely trying to help Mbappe get a lot and ruin Madrid along the way.
