⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Kessie to Barcelona - it's official. I really, really do not understand that club.
He is so average - probably not even that. I cannot understand why a club on a strict budget would waste a big chunk of it on the first free transfer they see.

They will probably lose De Jong - which was a strategic decision. But if they replace him with Kessie and Lewandovski and spend all that money on them - well, it will be another horrible decision from their board.

That's because he is a free transfer and Barcelona is getting him for free. So I don't see any problem getting this player for Barcelona.

The contract is going to be valid till 2026. In my opinion, this is a good move made by Barcelona. But if Barcelona had to spend money to get this player then they might have had other thoughts. And as far as I am concerned about getting Lewandowski I still don't think they should spend so much money getting a player who is older.

In your own opinion, do you believe that Cristiano Ronaldo will leave Manchester United?

Actually Ronaldo really still has to make his contribution at Man United. But the issues circulating now cannot be stopped anymore, news of his departure is sticking out and the results have yet to be confirmed. Even if Ronaldo really leaves Man United, there must be something that makes him uncomfortable. Like young players who are difficult to direct or are indeed incompatible with Erik ten Hag. Or is it because the issue of support for Erik is minimal. Building Man United who are in this kind of condition makes Ronaldo a dilemma.

Of course it would be great if Cristiano Ronaldo stayed and played a role that could bring Manchester United back into the Champions League. He will be a player who will be known as the most meritorious player for Manchester United.
For some time to come, I still believe that CR7 will continue to be rumored to leave Old Trafford. My assumption is that Ronaldo will work with Erik ten Hag next season.

It is expected that Ronaldo remain in Manchester United and rebuild it. I don't see any justifiable reasons for Ronaldo to leave this time that the club wants him most. This should be the time that Ronaldo will give back to the club that made him. He shouldn't have any problems with Erik and also with the young boys. He will be a rile model for them and bring back Manchester United to glory.
But it is a pity that the pursuit of individual glory is gradually pushing Ronaldo away from Manchester United. I wonder what else he wants to achieve in football if not to lift world cup.

At the end of the season Ronaldo stated he was willing to continue at the club but on the condition that the club will make good signings that will help improve the squad. The problem he has with Manchester z United is not just that they failed to make the champions league but also the kind of signings they are or rather are not making, that is why Ronaldo wants to leave. For Ronaldo to remain at the club he needs assurance that signings will come in to improve the team. If Manchester United want him to stay they have to make signings.

I don't think that Ronaldo would like to return to Sporting for now. He wants to play in the Champions League maybe but this doesn't mean that he would be eager to join any team that have qualified for it. He would prefer playing for a bigger team than Sporting. There are a couple of teams on the line for him and we will see what happens in the coming days. Ronaldo must be still thinking about leaving the team as he didn't join the first pre-season training for Manchester United.

I think he will return to sport but not for now, he still has ambitions to play in competitive leagues. Maybe he will return to Sporting a season before he retires, because I heard that he wants to end his career at the club where he started. And that is supported by Sporting themselves who open the door for Ronaldo whenever he wants to play there.

On the one hand Ronaldo asked to be sold because he wanted to play in the UCL at the end of his career, on the other hand Manchester United was reluctant to let Ronaldo go, because they still wanted Ronaldo in their squad for next season. This drama is very interesting to follow, until now Ronaldo has not had an agreement with another club. Despite being linked with Chelsea, Bayern Munich and Napoli, but until now there has been no confirmation from any of these clubs about the arrival of Ronaldo to their club. The complexity of the transfer process for Ronaldo is because he is almost retired, and his salary is very high.

For information, Ronaldo is currently the player who has the highest salary among other Manchester United players.

And as far as I am concerned about getting Lewandowski I still don't think they should spend so much money getting a player who is older.

They actually do. So far Xavi has actually done so well for the team including having all those midfielders that play well and all they are lacking right now is a striker that will actually score therefore they need to get a proper striker for that and Lewandowski is currently their top option. That being said, the only way for them to acquire Lewandowski is to sell De jong but it seems they are pretty reluctant to sell him

[posi]

Serge Gnabry had uncertain situation after the negotiation between him and Bayern deadlocked for extended contract so probably he will be sell this summer because Bayern don't want to losing him for free and rumours is Man City and Man Utd interested to bought him especially Man City that they probably will lost Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus so Man City needed new player for winger position and Gnabry seems is the right player and price tag for him is 35 millions pounds

Arsenal and Chelsea are really interested in this player. These two are going to offer a lot of money and I think finally the club which offers a better and bigger amount of money is going to get the player. Arsenal has made a good amount of transfers in this recent transfer market but they are still really trying hard to get Serge Gnabry as well. Don't know if they will be able to beat Chelsea. Personally, I want to see Serge Gnabry in Arsenal because probably after that Arsenal will be able to perform like a team that can actually e give a good fight to the top tier teams.

Manchester united are in the market to recruit and strengthen their squad as well as getting replacements for outgoing players. For a while, speculations have been on about Manchester United wanting to sign Frankie de Jong and at the moment Barcelona and Manchester United are close to agreeing a fee for the player. Though it looks difficult getting players to join Manchester United now especially now the news of Ronaldo leaving the club is out but I believe before the end of the transfer window they will get signings.

[püsür]

I cannot believe the Ronaldo transfer to Bayern is even mentioned. I would never guessed that in million years. Ronaldo and Bayern Munich are just totally different things to me. But, then again, Ronaldo likes to surprise people. In these types of situations, one word from a certain someone might ignite so many news. In this case, Brazzo denied Bayern Munich’s rumored interest in Cristiano Ronaldo, but Lothar Matthäus says it would be sexy. Then I saw so many news. I really wish sometimes in the summers, there would be something that media can focus, other than these kinds of news. Nevertheless, anybody can believe these rumours? I still can't wrap my head around this idea.

[alpamar99]

Didn't Bayern withdraw from Ronaldo and I think the Bayern officials were quite clear at that time saying they would not bring Ronaldo to the Alianz Arena for next season.
I think regardless of Lewandowski whether or not he leaves Bayern, Ronaldo still won't be there as a replacement unless they have an agreement behind it and a statement from the top brass is just a transfer.

Bayern Munich has official bring Sadio Mane as a form of preparation if Lewandowski leaves. I agree with you bayern munchen will not waste money to bring cr7 to Allianz Arena
Many reports say that Cristiano Ronaldo will leave Manchester United, even though he hasn't even played one season for Manchester United. I really can't believe it and see no reason cr7 would leave the red devils, speaking of ucl he could still try it in the coming season

Bayern have said that their first priority is still keeping Lewandowski there while they have prepared Mane at the moment so there is no reason for them to bring in Ronaldo.
Ronaldo's decision seems to be gray now because there is still no offer that can be taken seriously at this time, although there are rumors that have surfaced, but still this cannot be fully confirmed.

[Pulsar77]

According to some rumours there are already three contenders to sign Paulo Dybala now. Manchester United and Arsenal seem to be the most serious ones and it is stated that Napoli have also started to be interested in him now. Napoli's entering this race can change something actually. Because they might have an advantage as they are in the Serie A. Dybala has been used to playing in this league for many years therefore he might have this league as his first choice again too.

If the transfer happened then we all would agree that it is the most random transfer ever in history , given the fact that bayern munich never been linked to cristiano ... calling that transfer a sexy one , i would also agree though. He never speak a single word regarding this possibility.

Not sure where that kind rumor come from, it's just too boombastic.

Misery brings pleasure, this is what I saw in Barcelona. When their finances are in crisis, they can bring in players who are still relatively young for football players on a free transfer. His stats when he was with Milan were quite good, he played every game and thanks to his impressive performances he was able to improve his stats in terms of goals and passes. Apart from Franck Kessie, Barcelona have also officially announced the signing of Andreas Christensen on a free transfer. In addition to these two players, Barcelona is also trying to sign Bernardo Silva from Man City, he has also informed Pep Guardiola and Man City officials of his desire to join Barcelona.

In last two seasons Barcelona facing some serious financial problems but right now they are still having few good players in their squad and mostly are coming as free agents which is big advantage for them but still they are going to give them salaries which are also having some good amount misery is still around them for some time but with this all they are trying their best for having a strong squad for next season and giving tough competition to their competitors in La Liga and Champions League which is key for their solution of financial problems.

These both exciting players are going to have some good impact on their strength, and now they are also looking for Bernardo Silva which is their target, hopefully this all will not increase their burden of loan and financial issues.

Manchester United and Arsenal seem to be the most serious ones and it is stated that Napoli have also started to be interested in him now. Napoli's entering this race can change something actually. Because they might have an advantage as they are in the Serie A. Dybala has been used to playing in this league for many years therefore he might have this league as his first choice again too.

It's too risky for Dybala to move to the Premier League regardless of whether it's Arsenal or Manchester United. Dybala may be good for Serie A because he has played there for a long time, but anything can change even though the player was on the bench too many times last season through injury. Inter and Roma may still have an interest in this player but it is true that Arsenal appear to be making an approach as they may be expecting something from Dybala this season especially since he is a free agent.

Meanwhile, Manchester City have completed another transfer for the defensive midfielder following the departure of Fernandinho at the end of last season who moved to another team for free. Yes, it was Calvin Phillips who was sign in from Leeds for €48.75m.

[CryptoPanda]

If I'm not mistaken, neither can PSG because they just completed a new deal with Kylan Mbappe with a big salary. If PSG increase the amount of money that will be issued to Cristiano Ronaldo for the salary that will be obtained, then they have the opportunity to be subject to financial sanctions. That's why there is an issue that PSG officials will sell Neymar. But to be sure, let's look at the rules again.

Ronaldo is aging and at the moment has become injury prone. PSG will be gambling if they decide to sign Ronaldo now. They may also not be willing to sign Ronaldo because of his high wages and therefore will go for a lesser option that would fit in their style of play. Bringing Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar together in one team will be interesting but the wages for both players will be much and the fact that both players have big ego. I don't think  PSG will be willing to splash that kind of money.

[emrecemsan]

Look at this news. Arsenal are trying to sign their old player Serge Gnabry this summer.    However they don't seem to be alone about this transfer wish too. Gnabry still seems like he is likely to stay where he is for one more season though. Maybe he wouldn't extend his contract with Bayern Munich anymore and this would be a nice opportunity for the teams interested to sign him on a free transfer. I think the scenario will be like this rather than a transfer now.

You don't even mention Ac Milan name, though Ac Milan are at the forefront of the hunt for the signature of Paulo Dybala who is now a free agent. even maldini has given a signal that they are very interested in getting his services. but there are some conditions that will be made to paulo dybala where if he accepts AC Milan offer he must be willing to accept a lower salary than his previous salary at Juventus. On the one hand, if you look at his performances last season, Paulo Dybala often suffers from injuries that made him not perform optimally last season.

based on information too, that the team that is most serious in contacting Dybala's agents is Arsenal

Arteta is really trying to make Arsenal's front line more sharp and dangerous, he said that Dybala would be very suitable if paired with Gabriel Jesus

but i'm not really sure if dybala is willing to go to arsenal because he had said he was not interested in playing in a premier league club

[herurist]

fc barcelona announced the transfer of Franck Kessié, according to which the ivorian midfielder has signed a contract until summer 2026 including an exit clause in the amount of €500 million
FK arrives on a free transfer from italian champions ac milan

The exit clause is quite high again from a young player. But if you look at the club that is doing it now then this is not a strange thing because there are already several names that have actually been pegged with high release clauses such as Gavi, Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres.

It seems they want to continue to keep their players from being glimpsed by any club.

ManU is looking for Dybala to replace CR7 who mentioned that he wants to leave the club this season. Apart Inter which has advanced negotiations with him, there is Milan which is interested too.
Playing in Serie A is better for him imo, not sure if he can fit to EPL, it might turn to a disaster for him with ManU.

[Captain Corporate]

I don't know, Dybala instead of Ronaldo? Really? Don't get me wrong Dybala is younger and I understand that, but the fact is that Ronaldo is far superior in talent, even today. With this type of deal what they would get is the fact that they could get a younger but a bit worse player. This would allow them to instead of getting 2-3 great years from Ronaldo, they would get maybe like 8 years of goodness out of Dybala. Is it smart? I do not think so, but it is not horrible neither. I would consider it very well, and if not then just try to get Ronaldo to stay and have a longer contract and try to keep him happy there.

[1kodumtek7]

Cristiano indeed rumored had a transfer request and those clubs above are the one that watching the situation thoroughly , he could simply join chelsea but it would hurt the manchester united fans so yeah for me it's unlikely for cristiano to join rivals like chelsea.

PSG might be more reasonable as they are trying to build a dream team where cristiano and messi can play side by side.

I've heard about Ronaldo's talks with Chelsea too. I must admit that I'm a little bit surprised about that at the same time. Because for now I can't imagine Ronaldo at Chelsea for some reason. It feels like his style doesn't match Chelsea's in my opinion but maybe I'll be wrong about this in case this deal is completed successfully. Ronaldo is like he could join any decent team in the Champions League now. But being transferred by a rival club in the same league would be really disappointing for the fans as you said.
