⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Rengga Jati]

According to rumors, Haaland refuses the 1st offer from Manchester City.
The offer is rumored to be 25m/y plus taxes for a total of 50m€/year

Now, we can speculate that Haaland may prefer to move to Real Madrid.
Since Real Madrid failed to sign Mbappe, I am sure they will do everything to secure Haaland's signature. Now, it is the chance for Real Madrid to ensure Haaland and Dortmund management, they should plan to offer a higher price + bigger salary. It won't be a problem as long as Haaland wants to move to Real Madrid. Real Madrid management often spends extraordinary money to recruit any player they want.

What did you say right before the coronavirus when the finances of all clubs are very good now it's so different Madrid's finances could be disrupted if they force themselves to sign Haaland. We can see Madrid's activity in the last transfer market they sell some important players and buy less new players this is an indication that their finances are disrupted.

Seems pretty low balling for a 21 years old that probably hasnt even reach his peak yet, dude could have been way better in 5 years from now if he play in either spanish league or premier league. Thats pretty much the same as what Neymar gets on PSG but it seems Haaland wants more than just numbers so he is either waiting for some interesting offers or he could already have some clubs on his mind to sign with
Anyway, imagine if Haaland sign with Barcelona and Mbappe sign with Real Madrid. This would have been epic though

I am not sure that it is Haaland himself who refuses this offer from Manchester City, most likely it comes from his agent Mino Raiola. In any case, I don't think Barcelona can offer more, given its difficult financial situation, and also don't forget about the agent's remuneration and the compensation of Borussia Dortmund. By the way, the president of La Liga, Javier Tebas, a man with much more experience in such things and much more awareness, is even more categorical, saying now that Haaland's transfer to Barcelona is impossible. Although, of course, if this is true, then the financial appetites of Haaland's entourage are impressive, given that the player has shown himself only in the Bundesliga, having not yet shown himself in more competitive leagues.

I wouldn't want Haaland to move to Spain,I would have liked it if he moves to England and test himself.If he is a better striker,he will definitely Excell,but if he's not too good,England defenders will show him why they call England the toughest league in the world.
Most strikers fear making move to England because they are scared of loosing their name and fame.So moving to England is what he should have tried to see if he's very good.

Pogba is an exceptional but he have  underperforming for United over 5 years but for his national team, he is a beast. So, I guess some coaches will take the risk that maybe United is the problem not Pogba because obviously, he is always great for France and before coming to United, he was the best player at Juventus too.

It is very visible that there is a big difference when Pogba plays in Juventus and France with in Manchester United, when Pogba plays for France so far it seems he has managed to bring out his best ability 100% and that is why his position as a creator of attacks in the French midfield is very difficult to replace even though he is played badly at manchester, as well as when he played at juventus a few seasons ago, his performance was consistent and impressive enough that it was able to make juventus championship, with a fairly consistent appearance at juventus, made manchester united dare to pay a high price for pogba and made him a player with a transfer record that is quite fantastic, but I don't know what is the cause if Pogba appearance is actually very bad and beyond the expectations that Manchester expected when them bought him from Juventus.
I think for the good of both parties it seems that splitting up at the end of this season is the best way for both of them.

Ronaldo cares about competing in the Champions League a lot even now too. And it looks like Manchester United are going to have some trouble about finishing the season in top 4. If they don't make it, I think that he will think of leaving the team seriously. And at that point, maybe PSG would like to intervene and sign him. And Ronaldo wouldn't say no to that I guess. But I don't know how good it can be to have Messi and Ronaldo at the same team. It is doubtful if they can play good together.

In this situation, a lot depends on which person will lead Manchester United as head coach at the end of the season, as well as who will be the head coach at Paris Saint-Germain. Undoubtedly, participation in the Champions League is a priority for Ronaldo and therefore I can hardly imagine that the player will stay at the club if Manchester United cannot get into the Champions League for next season. Another question is that this does not mean a move to Paris Saint-Germain at all, although I think the club bosses also keep this option in mind, given Mbappe's likely departure from the club. As a result, my attitude to this option is such that I am not completely sure of the viability of the duo of Ronaldo and Messi, but I would still really like to see it

The truth is I don't know what I want to happen, on the one hand I would like to see CR7 succeed alongside Manchester United and on the other I would like to see CR7 and Messi playing fairly, it doesn't matter if Mbappé leaves, even if Neymar Jr himself leaves, I want to see those two playing and having a coach like Zinedine Zidane would be something from another world, I know that many also want to see them both playing and to achieve it I think that the scenario can happen even if with Man United it can be achieved and finish Within the first 3 positions, it must be emphasized that a team does not make it just 1 player or 2 or 3, it is a whole team, there are 11 who must make the difference.

Marco Asensio contract will ended at 2023 but until now he still not interested to extended new contract offered by Madrid although Madrid offering 5 millions euro plus bonus per year but he hasn't yet respond those offers and in the other hand Asensio agent confirmed some of big clubs such as Milan and Arsenal interested to bought Asensio and speculation appears regarding his future that basically he want to see the progress for Mbappe transfer to Madrid and if Mbappe transfer happened then he will decide to leave

[Oneandpure]

Pogba was indeed bought by Man United at a very high price from Juventus, unfortunately Pogba's performance while playing for Man United was
inconsistent. After all, Pogba has been at Man United for a long time, and Pogba has only won two trophies when he played for Man United.
Meanwhile, when he played for Juventus, Pogba got more trophies. So it is very natural that Pogba decided not to renew his contract with
Man United. Indeed, Pogba should move to another team that can promise to get a trophy, Real Madrid is a good choice, because Real Madrid
really need regeneration in their midfield. But it is reported that PSG are also interested in signing Pogba. If Pogba want to get a high salary,
Pogba can choose to move to PSG. But I think Pogba is more suitable to return to Juventus, because it has been proven that Pogba can bring out
his best game when playing with Juventus.

I don't think about how much price pay by Manchester United to get Pogba from Juventus but he not get good tandem on Manchester United like on Juventus, his position when arriving on Manchester United as holding midfielder different when have impressive performance with Juventus where Paul Pogba as attacking midfielder and always have contribution on created assist or scoring goals. When arriving on Manchester United Pogba always play as defensive midfielder and less contributing how to give assist and creating goal, I think next season he will try new challenge with other club.

Paul Pogba is an excellent box to box midfielder, who needs an Ngolo Kante behind him in the midfield, did y'all get to watch the 2018 FIFA World Cup ? Then I'll advise you go take a good look at how Paul Pogba performed although  having issues with Jose Mourinho at that time.
The problem with Paul Pogba is that he is not good defensively, the main reason why Deschamps France national Coach always plays two aggressive and offensive player's behind him, having a good box to box and attacking midfielder in a single player, you can all see he's a utility player.
The thing about Manchester United is that they don't have a defensive midfielder and that has contributed to both Paul Pogba's bashing and Harry Maguire included.
But I don't expect Manchester United offering any further contract extension to Paul Pogba. If he really wants to win likes he's said, two clubs for him are both Paris saint Germany and Real Madrid , he won't thrive for game's and under-performing at these clubs.

I agree with your thoughts. Pogba is a very valuable player, but he is not given enough attention in the team he plays for now. We know that he wants to be the champion and PSG will be the best option for this, he is getting older now and if he plays for a team like PSG, he can both become the champion and regain his old form.
They say that he is considering returning to Juventus, maybe he can go to his old team, but I think PSG is a better option

[Oluwa-btc]

Not Just to be a champion, he has won the World Cup, I think what's next for him to win is the Champions League, he came so close at achieving that in the year 2013 when Juventus lost to  Barcelona in the Champions League with the help of NSM ( Neymar Jr, Suarez and Messi)
He should make the best decision for himself, heading to PSG for me I guess, they'll have a good chance to win the Champions next season.
If they can attract Zidane to handle Paris saint Germany, they'll indeed go a long way.
To make a final conclusion for him is to head to PSG. Going back to Juventus is almost like staying at Manchester United, he should make a move to Real Madrid which he said is a dream or Paris he's Country.

When you watch him play for France, he's a completely different player with everything, his vision, his control of the game is there every game for France. Pogba's abilities are not in doubt and on his day, he is inarguably one of the best midfielders in the world. But he needs a sitter, a devoted and standby defensive midfielder for him to perform because he likes a fairly free role. In France, the key of their succes is N’golo Kante and Paul Pogba. They help each other. N’golo Kante helps Paul Pogba to just focus on attack. While Paul Pogba helps N’golo kante to just focus on the defense and win the ball back. He is not limited on the offensive aspect, his position can change and this depends on the placement and movement of other players around him. Manchester United haven’t addressed this position over the years. When they needed to sign a defensive midfielder, the club went for Jordan Sancho.

I’ll add one more point to this discussion Pogba felt loved while playing for France, and at Manchester United he felt left out because neither of the managers at Manchester United have know how to use him properly. Furthermore I feel that it’s best for him and the club if he leaves, as the club can get new player’s and he can revive his career elsewhere.

It is not like Pogba willingly doesn't want to give his best in Manchester United. It is just how things are. No one can give his best under the present Manchester United. If you were Pogba and by this time you don't know your permanent wing in the pitch will you be happy? Manchester United's problem more from the players.

You are absolutely right that Man United's problems are too many and may not be solved next season. So it's a good move if Pogba finally decides
to leave. Because Pogba feels he will find it difficult to develop if he extends his contract at Man United. After all, Pogba, like other star players,
wants to play in the Champions League. If we look at the current situation, it seems very unlikely that Man United will be in the top 4 this season.
So if Pogba decides to stay he may not play in the Champions League next season, therefore I quite understand why Pogba wants to leave Man United.

When arriving on Manchester United Pogba always play as defensive midfielder and less contributing how to give assist and creating goal, I think next season he will try new challenge with other club.

When it comes to Pogba's playing position at Juventus, it's different from when Pogba played at Man United. You are absolutely right Pogba at
Juventus plays more as an attacking midfielder, and it is proven that Pogba's performance is better if given the opportunity to help attack.
Meanwhile at Man United, Pogba mostly plays as a defensive midfielder and it seems that Pogba is difficult to play well in that position.
Therefore, while playing for Man United, Pogba had difficulty playing consistently, and Pogba's performance was not as good as when he played
for Juventus. Sometimes good players, if placed in an inappropriate playing position, will play badly. So the coach's job should be to know where
to put his players.

Going back wouldn't be a good idea, he's play mate then Paulo Dybala has set he's eyes on the move for a new club already.
Imagine this move and you expect him to make a move back to juve ?
This i don't think coming through.

I also think that Paul Pogba is a player who shines when he plays aggressively. But in Manchester United, he is not often given the luxury of playing hyper-aggressive. That's what is holding him back in my opinion. 

Also, Paul Pogba has one of the best ball controls I have ever seen in football. When he is in form, it seems like the ball is doing exactly what he wants to do. And when he is playing for France, it seems like he is in sync with every player. but it is quite the opposite in Manchester United .

United working on Kalvin Phillips transfer
Manchester United are working on a deal to sign Leeds United midfielder Kalvin Phillips.

United have prioritised a defensive midfielder in the summer market after deciding against signing one last year and Phillips has impressed since Leeds were promoted to the Premier League in 2020.

Although United are interested in Phillips's England teammates Declan Rice and Jude Bellingham, West Ham have publicly valued Rice at an exorbitant £150million while Borussia Dortmund want to keep Bellingham for one more year as they are resigned to losing Erling Haaland this summer.
https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/man-united-transfer-news-live-23616998

Do players of today still get the same feeling as before when they get a calling to play for United...i don't think so,  from how these transfers are made to sound as if United is begging for these players services. Hope United gets through with this rough patch.

I remember Jose Mourinho in his last season with Manchester United labelled Paul Pogba as a virus. But many fans came for him and even the team players seemed to took Pogba's side. Over the years, he has been nothing less than toxic, his attitude, ego and always quick to drop negative comments to media when away from  Manchester United.

You do not call a player toxic though, I mean sure he is, but him calling pogba a virus is not really a professional thing to do. If you do not like that player, you bench him, and even take him out of the 18, and then keep him there until he starts to act better.

Even though he was right, because he reacted wrongly, people came in to defend him, I never liked him, I believe he could have gone the Balotelli route and be in worse and worse teams, but Pogba was defended just because he was talked about badly. Instead of talking badly, you just need to bench him and that would have made all the difference. This move could literally might have saved Pogbas life, so he owes it all to Mourinho.

^ I know when we talk about Manchester United and Cristiano Ronaldo, there is a certain emotion working. 

But, I think Ronaldo has to move on and play for other teams because I don't think with Manchester United he is going to achieve any great things.
At least not now, because there has a lot of great players but still the team is not doing great at all. 

And it is surely going to be something to watch Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi play alongside each other. 
The greatest rivalries of all time might just turn into the greatest duo of all time. In PSG, at least they are winning the league title. 
Well, obviously the competition is not so great but still, they are achieving something.
