⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[salad daging]

So, Barcelona decided to go with the Raphinha deal after all. I think he's a really good player - but they are paying a top price for him.
It is a 5-year contract and the transfer is worth around 65 million Euros.

That also means that they did not manage to reach an agreement with Dembele who will leave on a free transfer.

It makes sense with Raphinha's €65m price tag for the next 5 years contract he is indeed a talented player and Barcelona still have to be willing to pay big money for this transfer.
Ousmane Dembélé is also waiting for a decision from Barcelona and it will be signed soon but I don't know if it will fail or continue but Barcelona are trying to keep it.
Lewandowski also still has not made the right decision but news rumors still he will join in the near future.

After all, Barcelona has finally completed a great deal by signing Raphinha to a 5-year contract. Many teams wanted to sign Raphinha, including Chelsea and Arsenal, but Barcelona was fortunate to land him. He will undergo medicals soon and will be officially a Barcelona player. Raphinha is a great player, and as a young player, he has a lot of potential and will be able to improve his game in Barcelona.

rumor from italy/england
the italian international striker Gianluca Scamacca, who plays for sassuolo calcio, is not only on paris st. germain's list but also, according to english media reports, west ham united. GS attracted attention last season with 16 goals in 36 serie a games - and could also become really expensive in view of a contract that is still valid until summer 2026. 'the guardian' for example, has put a possible transfer fee of €50 million into play

There are reports that Koulibaly has agreed personal terms with Chelsea. I must must say it’s a really good one for Chelsea. They are in urgent need of defensive reinforcements following the departures of centre backs Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen and have been linked to a host of names this summer, including De Ligt. But I think Koulibaly is a pure professional and also a fighter. He is 31 and very tough but not slow. I think he will be very beneficial alongside Thiago Silva and contribute to the development of the likes of Malang Sarr and Chalabah. Solid for Chelsea. Good replacement for Rudiger. Arguably one of the best and strong defenders. It’s a great signing should it go to fruition.

This season's transfer market is full of surprises, many big teams have had problems with deals, both bringing in new players and keeping existing players, only a few clubs have managed to make purchases that are quite easy, such as Manchester City, Liverpool and Bayern Munich, the rest are many big clubs who have experienced problems and the complexity of player transfers this season, Barcelona is not only in trouble, there are even rumors that are currently developing, they are currently in financial trouble.

Dembele is currently a free agent, but I think Barcelona will eventually renew his contract, he is a talented players, and was able to assist 14 goals from 38 appearances last season. Although, Barcelona haven't so far talked about extending his contract. However, they made a great decision by bring Raphinha in the club. Nevertheless, Barcelona still have some players in the club, who probably don't have intentions of being in the club anymore. Players such as Samuel Umtiti and Oscar Mingueza.

I suppose with Barca and their financial situation it will be a struggle and is all about balancing the books. That's why I'm quite surprised at the big transfer outlay on Raphinha. A lot of it is also about wages for big players though, which is probably how they're doing it... for example, they off-loaded Coutinho to Aston Villa for a reduced transfer fee, but at the same time managed to remove his huge wage burden, and so free up funds for incoming transfers. Dembele is another one, it sounds like they want to keep him and he wants to stay, and if they can agree reduced wages then everyone's happy(ish). IIRC they almost managed to keep Messi with a 50% wage cut, but there was a legal obstacle that prevented such a huge % cut, even if the actual wage was still high, so he had to be sold.

Well, i reckon that Barcelona still has problems with there financial salary cap, limited and restricted by the Liga itself.

It will be great to see Fati, Dembele, Lewandoski, and Raphinha play in one match. Althoug,my problem with Dembele is his injury  that makes him quite inconsistent. But now they have Raphinha who is another option incase of his injuries and then vice-versa. I hope Dembele will get more play time. I am concerned that these signings is likely make Barcelona might not have enough money to sign Lewa. Maybe or maybe not. However, I like what they are doing, trying to build back up a very competitive team like they used to have.

raphinha is a star from brazil i'm sure he will shine in barcelona under xavi tutelage. indeed he dreamed of playing in barcelona and his dream has now come true in this summer window. raphinha is a very good buy that barcelona made at this transfer window. barcelona have now signed two players in this summer window franck kessie and raphinha. I'd like to hear more about lewandowski.

Chelsea are being rumoured with PSG centre-back Kimpembe now. However I have heard that they have already reached an agreement with Napoli to sign Kalidou Koulibaly. If I'm not mistaken he is going to earn €10m per year. On one hand they are trying to sign another centre-back too as it seems. Their biggest interest is in Nathan Ake now. I don't think that PSG would let Kimpembe go so they had better focus on transferring Ake now. As he is a rotation player for Manchester City, I expect this transfer to happen.

So, Barcelona decided to go with the Raphinha deal after all. I think he's a really good player -

That's definitely a good deal for the Spanish side Barcelona on their efforts to make Barcelona great again by overhauling and boosting the team with players like Raphinha in order to match up with other clubs come next season, I do believe that Raphinha is going to showcase his talent and thus give them quality performance at Barcelona and he's really going to play incredibly well in my opinion.

but they are paying a top price for him.
It is a 5-year contract and the transfer is worth around 65 million Euros.

I don't think the price is high if the Raphinha can match up with the clubs expectations on him.

It seems that Lewandowski is still considered too expensive by Barcelona because Lewandowski has not been included in the free transfer category like the two new players that Barcelona have managed to get in the current transfer window. Because Xavi realizes that the Barcelona club is in need of several new players so that they can improve their performance next season and will also be taken into account in the race for the championship trophy.

Manchester United are doing all they can to finalize the Frenkie de Jong deal for themselves. They agreed upon the transfer fee as far as I know and they were discussing the add-ons after that. They might really be close to happy ending now. Laporta said before that Frenkie de Jong was still happy to be part of the team. However he doesn't seem like he is opposing to this transfer too. Barcelona are going to have much work to do in case they sell him. On the other hand this transfer is going to help them raise funds significantly too of course.

I heard MU Official was on Barcelona to make the deal. I'm not sure how much deal, I think it's still on 85 Million or maybe low than that if have any solution to arrange the rest.  but for now,  I still don't understand the position De Jong, is the same Bruno Fernandes?, if yes, so I thing MU will make a change on the front. and Bruno will be a winger or back a little bit to help the defender.

No, I don't expect Manchester United to bring Frenkie de Jong to make him play in Bruno Fernandes' position. They must be thinking of him as a defensive midfielder in the lineup. They really needed some defensive moves for getting stronger there. They conceded so many simple goals last season and they needed to make up for this. Frenkie De Jong has played as central midfielder and defensive midfielder the most so far. So he wouldn't have problem on adapting there.

I am quite surprised that Barcelona commited to extending the Dembele deal after signing Raphinha. I wrote today that buying Raphinha means that they did not manage to agree on terms with Dembele and then I see a few hours later that he will be staying.

They will have Fati, Torres, Raphinha and Dembele for 2 positions, Auba as well if they bring in Lewandovski. They still have Depay on the books, they are again like a little kid in the supermarket.

Of course, the purchase was not without reason. they must have been in Xavi's plans. having a lot of strong players in the same position is confusing to see. how the big names will get a decent share of play.
but Xavi could change the formation he will use in his main squad. we know Barcelona still has financial problems that they have not completely resolved. but the effort to improve and make the club bad for glory, I think that's Barcelona's ambition this season.

[bering]

Milan want to strengthen their midfield and now they were looking for new players in that position and after failed to get Renato Sanches from Lille because Sanches aren't willing to leave Lille then Milan reported linked to PSG player Georginio Wijnaldum and Milan had good opportunity to get Wijnaldum because seems after PSG changed new manager he is not included to Galtier plan so Wijnaldum probably will leave PSG but the price tag hasn't published yet

[KTChampions]

United have already agreed to this amount (and I can't say that it is any particularly large - if you pay attention, a lot of promising players now worth about 100 million) it's all up to De Jong now, but leaks say he's changed his mind about leaving. An extremely strange decision, Barcelona cannot even pay him the salary that he has already worked ... why stay in a crisis club?

In my opinion, there is no benefit for De Jong to accept an offer from United. he will only waste the opportunity to play in the UCL with Barcelona. After all, Xavi was quite successful with Barcelona in his first season as Barcelona coach, if he stays with Barcelona, he has a chance to make history for the Catalan legend by winning the La Liga title. With MU, what can be expected? just a chance to Play with Ronaldo. LOL
If he really wants to leave, I believe he will choose other club.

  yeah, a chance to become champions of the galaxy. The only question is in what kind of reality?
Yes, United is in crisis, but this crisis is not comparable to the crisis that Barcelona is in - a financial collapse, managerial and ideological. I don't know why I hear this endless talk about Xavi's success (in my opinion he is pulling the team back) and about some chances for the championship - in the coming years Barcelona may forget about the title.

Too expensive because they do not have enough capital to be wasteful in this transfer market. If they push themselves to the price Bayern Munich want I don't think that's good for their future.
In my opinion, they should change course for that position. That means they have to look for young players who have the potential to make it big compared to having to go after Lewandowski, who until now there is no clarity.

Latest news that I heard Milan want the Ivory Coast midfielder Hamed Traore, their competition is only Leeds United so I believe they can do better than Leeds. And compared to Wijnaldum, maybe he still less experienced but this will also make Milan can make a good bargain on the transfer fee and the salary.

[Nasuhalugu]

Milan Škriniar chose Paris Saint-Germain over Premier League club Chelsea after hesitating between the two, and it is believed PSG and Inter may clinch a transaction worth about €60 million in the next days.

PSG has also planned a second choice. Jules Kaounde from Sevilla will be made available if negotiations with Inter for Milan Škriniar fail. The French defender has also been linked to Chelsea, who are rebuilding their back line.
