⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Slow death]

In my opinion, Ronaldo deserves to be captain of Man United.

Ronaldo is unarguably one of the best players of all time, and only a few footballers are worthy to tie his laces, but i'm afraid i do not consider Ronaldo to be a captain "material", let us be honest, Ronaldo somewhat plays for his individual accolades, he is less of a team player than what a captain should be, there are numerous times that the team have won, but Ronaldo was unhappy just cause he did not get on the scoresheet, now can we also talk about his discouraging body movements when the team is losing or when the game isn't going his way, that is not how you want your captain to behave, and if i were to be manager of Manchester United, i would definitely not be happy if Ronaldo is my skipper.

In my opinion cristiano ronaldo would be a good captain, he is a player who strives above average and that is why he is very demanding with his teammates, he has won many trophies and he scores many goals. a player capable of playing in any team and having good results like cristiano ronaldo is the type of player that should be captain of a team. cristiano ronaldo's teammates need to listen to what he says, they need to listen and follow what he is saying because he knows well how to achieve good results, he in himself is living proof that his methods achieve good results so the other players have to let go stubbornness aside and listen to what cristiano ronaldo is saying if he were captain

Another reason Manchester United are looking for a top midfielder is because they are in crisis in midfield, Manchester United have lost four players who have been in and out of the first team. Lingard, Juan Mata, Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba will certainly not appear with Manchester United again because their contracts have expired. So, Manchester United really have to prioritize strengthening the midfield in the transfer market by bringing in some new players.

This means Manchester United must look for four other talented players to replace Lingard, Juan Mata, Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba who will not strengthen the Manchester United team again next season, because if only De Jong to replace the four players whose contracts have expired will also not enough for Manchester United. And it looks like Manchester United should focus more on finding some new players to strengthen their midfield in the current transfer market.

Why it changed to be Chelsea that are leading the race for Rafinha is what I don't know because it was Arsenal that was pushing forward for his signature,and have had about two bids refected by Leeds United,but the moment Chelsea came in and offered more money,they were in pole position to land the Brazilian.Rafinha is a nice dribbler and a good player that has that ability to score goals. Arsenal would have been the best club for him.

well i hope he can play well at chelsea, because tuchel has some game methods that few players can get used to and have good results and there are few players who leave chelsea and manage to do well in other clubs immediately, they take time to go back to being the same star they were before joining chelsea, I knew that Raphinha wanted to be at barcelona, I saw it on a website in portuguese

ARTURO VIDAL ----------------- BOCA JUNIORS

LUIS SUAREZ ------------------- RIVER PLATE (sign the monday).

Mega transfers to the south american.

Argentine and Brazilian leagues have been improving their quality in recent years. In fact, these two leagues export football players to the whole world. Normally they should always be of better quality. These two transfers may be a good reason to watch the Argentine league. If the quality of the league increases, they will attract more viewers. Because Artur Vidal and Luis Suarez are a little old but they are the main actors. They will be stars of the Argentine league.

[MinoRaiola]

Yeah actually Chelsea also were targeting Richarlison to sign for some time but they didn't even try to intervene the deal. Lukaku has left the club to join Inter on loan so they need a striker to fill his place in the team in the end. I really wonder what the reason could be for Chelsea about not going for Richarlison. I think their hand would be stronger than Tottenham too. Anyway, I hope Chelsea can find a good centre-forward for themselves before the new season starts.

Chelsea will catch a striker before the start of the new season. It will be a star… i don't think so. Look at Timo Werner, Christian Pulisic, Batshuayi and Hudson-Odoi they are young and strong players. I think it's going to be a very young player who also plays in the second team. Like Armando Broja, he comes from the U23 to the first team.

Even if it doesn't become a star transfer I think they should still sign a solid one. Because Batshuayi isn't a reliable striker and they are just loaning him to different teams when they have the opportunity. Timo Werner started to be more effective last season but his performance is still not good enough for Chelsea. Because they need a consistent striker too to be able to become successful in the Premier League and the Champions League both. However they can go for the formula you mentioned if they somehow fail in finding the one I described.

The decision is there: Tottenham gets Everton's "Richarlison" with contract until 2027. He costs a transfer fee of 50 million pounds, that is about 58 million euros. With Bonus can increase it to 70 million euros. Worldwide the 4 most expensive transfer.

Barcelona just sold their 10% tv right against next season to raise €200 million to be alone to register the free players they got and also make some transfer moves as they are still trying to get Lewandoski and Raphinha.

It seems that there is a possibility that Raphinha will join Barcelona even though Chelsea have made an official offer for the player and his agent. I think it was Raphinha's own wish that actually wanted to play for Barcelona, ​​but I don't know if it will happen in the end. I believe Barcelona's main target is Lewandowski, but Raphinha will be an alternative if Barcelona and Lewandowski don't reach an agreement.

According to @FabrizioRomano, Serge Aurier is now a free agent after Villarreal decided not to take up the option in his contract to renew it by a further 12 months. Former Tottenham fullback had a one-year contract with Villarreal after leaving Spurs on a free transfer last year.

I don't see any transfer rumour about Serge Aurier on Transfermarkt which I find it interesting. Because I don't think he is bad now and he is still 29 too. He has been a decent player who played for teams like PSG and Tottenham as well. It isn't easy to find good backs in today's football so I don't think that he will be without a club before the start of next season.

By the way Dembele's contract has officially expired now. Bayern Munich, Chelsea and PSG might be interested in him according to the news on the link below. There is even a possibility for continuing at Barcelona too but I don't think so for now.

Ohh Shit! How's it gonna be now ? I fancied him a lot during he's good and great old days at Paris Saint Germany, He has been a top lad defends very well, joins attacking players and also a good crosser of the ball into the eighteen yard box.
One big problem I had with him was discipline as he'll always be carded which has a tendency of reducing he's marking and defending.
Asides that, before joining Tottenham Hotspur, he has been a great player no doubts.
Still wondering where he'll end up now, probably one of the underdogs in the premier league, I see Antonio Conte has no plans for him returning into the squad.
The transfer window will still be wide open until September 1, I'll be patient enough to see where he does ends finally.

Rapinha drama seems to be continuing even though Chelsea are actually closer to getting him, I think the competition between chelsea and barcelona to get Rapinha will actually confuse Deco who is a former barcelona and chelsea player who is also Rapinha agent right now   , now it seems like it will be difficult to predict where Rapinha is going will continue his career because in terms of money it is clear that Chelsea are more able to buy Rapinha from Leeds united while for interest in playing it seems that Rapinha really prefers Barcelona as his team next season, so for now we can only see how the drama will end later.

If you want to sign a player, then do it quickly, offer a bit more fee, a bit more wages, whatever it takes. Because you just know that if you take too long, another team (or teams) will get involved, and you may end up not being able to get your man.
There's a lot to be said for the Aston Villa approach, they made a couple of great signings right at the start of the summer, before any other club had even woken up. There was no media speculation or anything, just sudden news that they'd signed. You just know if they were trying to sign Kamara and Diego Carlos now they'd have no chance, both players would get picked up by bigger clubs.

Same thing with Raphinha. It was obvious that quite a few teams would be interested. So come April/May, if you want him, go for him, get it done early. Don't be still in negotiations in July.

[ILuckyGuyI]

Good deal for Tottenham because they have signed Richarlison easily even though for a pretty hefty price, I also think that Richarlison can be a wing striker with Son and Kane remaining in midfield maybe Conte will use a 3 stirker strategy up front to sharpen but Richarlison can be wherever Conte needs in my opinion.
Tottenham's front line will be stronger, Conte feels that he already knows his talent at Spurs, so he chose Richarlison to be brought in this season.

You might turn out to be right about a system with three strikers (for example 4-3-3 seems one of the bests for that). However I checked out Inter's 2020/21 season with Conte in which they were the champions. I saw that he used only two formations: 3-4-1-2, 3-5-2 flat. He actually mostly used 3-5-2 flat except seven games in the Serie A. Maybe he would like to try a system with two strikers here also. He didn't prefer it much last season but with Richarlison's arrival maybe things might change.

rumors regarding the transfer process for Raphinha finally answered.Chelsea managed to become the winner in the hunt for the 25-year-old player, where according to several sources Chelsea paid 65 million euros to Leeds united, and both parties have agreed on the price and the possibility of soon Raphinha will be introduced to the public at Stamford bridge, where Raphinha will be listed by Tuchel to take part in the UEFA Champions League competition in the coming months.where Raphinha himself confirmed that he wants to go to a club that plays in the blue continent competition

Djej Spence is an almost done signing too. Personal terms seem to have been agreed between the player and Spurs. Now negotiating with Middlesbrough is whats left for Spurs to secure the signing.

Wherever he plays, they'll fit him in somewhere. Spurs are looking quite scary for next season, if you imagine that Son and Kane will be getting improved service and so will be likely to score even more goals.
Arsenal look better too with Gabriel Jesus, plus they have a Vieira back in midfield again for the first time in a long time... you can imagine Spurs and Arsenal will start to pull away from Man U a bit, and leave Man U really struggling to try to get a Champions League place.

[Distraction]

Alvaro Morata also has been linked with Arsenal recently but I don't think Arsenal will go for him after signing Gabriel Jesus. The Gabriel Jesus deal hasn't been completed officially yet but it is going to happen soon seemingly. But maybe Arsenal would try a loan move for Morata also. Juventus didn't want to extend his loan so he is back at Atletico Madrid. I'm not very sure about if Atletico Madrid are thinking him in the starting eleven regularly. If he isn't in their plans then Arsenal might have a chance.

[cygan]

as of today, Ousmane Dembélé is without a club, which means that many top clubs would be able to get him for free.
according to transfermarkt.co.uk, clubs like fc chelsea, bayern munich or even the french serial champion psg are interested in the french right winger.

French forward Ousmane Dembélé has officially left Barcelona, following the player’s contract at the Spanish club expiring. That now means that the 25-year-old winger is technically a free agent and will be able to join any club in the world for free, assuming he and his future side can agree terms on a new contract.

if Arsenal had any intentions for Morata I think negotiations would be imminent. but regarding Gabriel Jesus, I think everything is clear. a few days ago he came to Arsenal for a medical.
Arsenal this season will appear more fierce with Gabriel Jesus up front. teams like Man City and Liverpool have to prepare their teams to compete with Arsenal.

Very likely a fake rumour. Arsenal in no way is gonna sign Morata. They wanted a striker and they got that. Now next in their list is midfielders. Raphinha and Tielemans were their priority but Raphinha deal seems kinda off with Chelsea progressing there and with Tielemans it also didn't progressed further. Raphinha is still doable but very unlikely that it will happen.

Alvaro Morata will prefer to return to Atletico Madrid rather than to secure a move to play for Arsenal in England, recall he had previously played for Chelsea and performed brilliantly however the former Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri preferred striker was Hazard thus limited Alvaro Morata playing time that forced him to secure a loan move to Atletico Madrid thereafter he was permanently signed of course with the departure of Luiz Suarez from Atletico, Diego Simeon will give him regular playing time being a very experienced striker.

[lulumiya]

I don't expect such move from Alvaro Morata to Arsenal either. If Arsenal didn't get this much close to completing the Gabriel Jesus agreement with Manchester City, things might have been different maybe. It is good for Arsenal not to try to sign Morata also because I think he is no more than an overrated striker. I have watched him with my own eyes for a long time and he has been a disappointment in the centre-forward position most of the time. Juventus didn't even want to continue with him more.
