⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Newcastle are seriously interested in signing James Maddison now. Leicester have a price tag for him like at least 50 million pounds. Newcastle's last offer for him was 40 million pounds and Leicester turned it down as a result. Newcastle shouldn't give up on signing him of course as the gap is not too big for them now. They have a huge amount of money to spend and Maddison is one of the really good players who are worth it. Leicester are trying to keep him by offering a contract extension on one hand.

Arsenal boss, Mikel Arteta have been always happy and proud of his new striker, Gabriel Jesus who recorded an hattrick against Sevilla in their friendly game. Mikel building a squad full with Young players below 30 is a good one for the team. Saka, Martinelli and Jesus will impressed the club with their brilliant performance this new season and they ought to reach their ultimate target which is to qualify for top four. Mikel Arteta aiming to win trophies this new season and compete with tough teams in the Premier league.

Gabriel Jesus have impressive performance on pre season match with Arsenal and looks he not waste Arsenal money after pay higher transfer values from Manchester City, no doubt with his performance not only with Arsenal on pre season match but also Gabriel Jesus most ever scoring goals for Manchester City last several years. I think he need proof about his talented and make Manchester City disappointed have sold him to Arsenal by keep consistent scoring goals on Primer League. I think not really important with how many goals success scored by Gabriel Jesus on pre season match but we need waiting about how many goals scoring on Primer League.

Maldini is sent away from Milan by Papa (Paolo Maldini). Transfer from Milan to Spezia Calcio. Daniel Maldini changes clubs at the age of 20. His father make a loan transfer so that he could get more playing practice. This was also tried with the second son, but Christian Maldini has not yet managed to be a professional Player. Now Daniel should make it, he played 8 games in the league for Milan last season and scored 1 goal, he is always substituted, so he need to play more at Spezia Calcio.

Paolo Maldini is very understanding with his son's development, he also wants his son to be a player who always gets minutes when the time comes. Paolo Maldini decision to send Daniel Maldini to Spezia Calcio just to get more playing minutes, Maldini has also seen far ahead for his son's future. He hopes that when he returns from Spezia Calcio Daniel Maldini can be better and can fill Milan main Line Up with his experience while studying at Spezia Calcio.

The riddle about Cristiano Ronaldo I think is now in the final that he will stay at Manchester United. From Manchester United's official social media uploads, he seems to have rejoined the team. And that I think is enough to answer our curiosity about the very strong rumors about him. We will see him play for Manchester United next season.

Going back to training with the team doesn't have to mean Cristiano Ronaldo will stay at Manchester United. There can still be many negotiations behind the scenes. Of course, in my opinion, it would be best for him to stay there, but as always, the most important thing will be money, I mean whether he received any interesting offers.

Gabriel Slonina is a potential goalkeeper I think at a very young age, but in this case I actually still feel that Chelsea are just wasting their money on this transfer.
At the moment Mendy is still quite tactical in their defense even though he is 30 years old but it is quite clear that he will still be the main choice for now.

I don't think so, If you could recall last season Mendy had a stressful season he almost keep in all the Chelsea's matches both important and unimportant matches while kepa was still there, In my humble opinion Mendy need an assistant ,So they made a wise move in getting the young goal keeper to support Mendy in case of possible injury or just saving him the stress of keeping in some minor games. I really love Chelsea when it comes to signing of keepers they got the eye in selecting quality goal keeper,  still believe that this young keeper is gonna be great keeper if everything is done.

It's really hard to guess how Barcelona can sign expensive players, even though they are still facing a financial crisis, and there is still a possibility that they will encounter an issue because they still have to register these new players. I guess someone will be sacrificed here, whether it's selling some players or reducing their salary. Well even though it won't be easy (like De Jong who insisted he didn't want to be released to Man United), I think Barcelona will work on it.

Barcelona have forced themselves to spend too much in this transfer window where they spent 135 million as reported by Transfermarkt. It may not make sense to most people because at the same time they are going through a bad financial crisis. But somehow they are optimistic enough to be able to balance the situation even though they have to kick several players in order to register other players.

I watched their game against NRB, it was a good game for the Barcelona players but it's a shame Lewandowski again missed his goal opportunity. Dembele, Raphinha played well and that is the best thing this season. Dembele seems to be scoring more and more goals and he is starting to feel comfortable playing in various positions. I hope he can perform better this season especially because he is supported by other players who are also no less good.

Ronaldo didn't only return to training with Manchester United, he has also featured in Manchester United last pre season match in Spain with Roy Vallecano. Ronaldo was featured among young and second team players in the match. Which I believe that because he has been absent in other fixtures and majority of the players have passed their assessments test. Remaining Ronaldo and the new Eriksen and Martinez.
Suprsingly Ronaldo didn't get a goal in the first half, as soon as he was subbed for Diallo A who returned from loan, the young player got the first goal of the match. We are about 60mins into the match.
I will likely update what the full score will be like.

Chelsea made attempt to bring in a new centre back but RB Leipzig have not intention of letting go of the Croatian international. Todd Boehly's not giving up on this deal as binds a swap deal with Timo Werner loan deal but let's see how it goes because it all depends on the possible discussion between the two club. Chelsea are seriously in need of a centre back because their is big space at their defense line and looks like these young Players might find it difficult to fitin on time.

[Smack That Ace]

Real Madrid have enquired about the availability of Chelsea's Albania striker Armando Broja, 20, who impressed on loan at Southampton last season. Very interesting news. Is Real already preparing for the era after Benzema?
Chelsea's Germany forward Timo Werner, 26, has accepted a 50% pay cut to rejoin RB Leipzig - and a loan fee with a purchase clause is being discussed. This is also a bit of surprising news to me as it looked like he was either going to stay at Chelsea or move to another big club this summer, I think some big Spanish clubs were mentioned?
Barcelona's Memphis Depay, 28, is among Juventus' options for a new attacking option along with Werner and Atletico Madrid's Spain striker Alvaro Morata, 29, but there have been no direct talks between Tottenham and the Netherlands forward. Juve have done a very good job with transfers this summer and are clearly preparing to return to the top of Italian football.
Manchester City have denied they are willing to sell Portugal midfielder Bernardo Silva, 27, to Barcelona after reports his departure could fund a deal for Lyon's Brazil midfielder Lucas Paqueta. Does this mean that Silva is staying in Manchester or is it just a negotiating tactic?  
Barcelona president Joan Laporta says there is a "strong possibility" Manchester United target Frenkie de Jong will stay at the club and he will "do my best" to keep the Netherlands midfielder. So, in the end, Jong succeeded in his plan to stay in Barcelona?

Sooner or later, Real Madrid will have to prepare for that next era after Benzema. So I think they are already starting the process.

—— I have actually been very surprised by the news that Timo Werner is joining RB Leipzig with a 50% pay cut. This was surely a forced decision to leave Chelsea. I expected him to move to a bigger and better team, to be honest. But this is also not an entirely bad move. They finished fourth in the last season.

—— Juventus is making some wise transfers. And I really like that they are taking decisions by staying under the radar. So the players that they are targeting are not being chased by a lot of other things which can increase the value. Still no clear news. But they are obviously on a hunt.

—— It is actually quite difficult to say about Bernardo Silva because I don't believe that Barcelona is willing to spend more money this season. But at the same time, we have seen unexpected things happen. But personally, I think this player is going to stay in Manchester City.

—— So, my question is what is going to happen about the pay cut? Frankie De Jong has agreed to take the pay cut or is Barcelona not even offering him a pay cut if he stays with them?

Tottenham are still after Memphis Depay but they haven't made any offer for him officially yet. I don't expect Barcelona to make any difficulties about this deal as they are also willing to sell him immediately. They need to start from somewhere to make their finance better. They wouldn't be able to make a huge profit in this transfer of course but it would be a start. Depay has been ready for joining a strong team so I don't expect him to reject Tottenham.

Memphis doesnt want to leave barcelona , but the club would just fine if he look for somewhere else .. and now it seems makes memphis depay feel unwanted and uncomfortable , guess what? It's reported that juventus silently approaching him which it's gonna be a wild wild transfer window for barcelona and juventus this season.

I dont see tottenham are really in an intense interest .

You know, I think it's better to go to Juventus than to endure this attitude from Barcelona, the team that needs the player himself. They tell him directly that they do not need him, so if I were Memphis, I would consider a move to another club, and Juventus is a very good option, I think he would be welcome there

Barcelona plays it really dirty.

I mean how the freak they signed the likes lewy .. rapinha , kessie & kounde within a month while disrespecting players like de jong and memphis just they have a replacement already.
There is no sense in it but evil acts around barcelona management.
Leave and show barcelona completely wrong.
I wish they did it.

Don't be surprised, Timo Werner has flop at Chelsea but just because he's a lovable guy, we the Chelsea fans aren't turning against him as we did against Lukaku. Timo Werner is ready to work hard but luck hasn't just been on his side. With the new season starting soon, he's unlikely to have a shot at playing. We just bought sterling and given a shirt number to Michy Batshuayi clearly sent a message to Romo Werner that his service won't be needed this season especially as we can't risk having someone that misses clear scoring opportunity, atleast with sterling he does score.

Batshuayi and Kai havertz would probably lead the attack so Timo Werner isn't favorite at the striker position. In the wings we have Christian Pulisic, Hakim Ziyech, Callum Hudson-Odoi and other midfielder we could use in that position so he isn't favorites as well and him moving would be the best assurance of getting better play time so his move is understandable, hopefully he succeed over there

losing rudiger and christensen is the biggest loss for chelsea because last season they both performed amazingly in the chelsea defense sector. because kounde chose to go to barcelona then gvardiol is a good option that chelsea can choose, reportedly both teams (chelsea and leipzig) have almost reached a final decision.

Barcelona was selling more television broadcast rights to get more funding. I would not feeling surprised to see that if there are so many questions about the financial of barcelona. The financial of barcelona can't be called as good as it was before. It must have sold more rights to pay off the debt and buying the players.

They are actually very concentrated on the upcoming season and indeed I think this is a step that is too much because they sold almost half of their stake to get fresh funds and can bring in a few players now in the hope of returning as soon as possible for next season.
Their target does not seem grandiose for next season because with the current composition the title is the target they must get.

I hope he can perform better this season especially because he is supported by other players who are also no less good.

Even though Barcelona has made some really smart transfers this season, I am still skeptical that they will be able to do something truly incredible. To me, doing something really incredible means winning the La Liga title and the Champions League title. That is the only way they will be able to make sense of all the money that they have spent this season.

And I absolutely know that Robert Lewandowski is going to have to be the one to score the bulk of goals, the same thing he did when he played for Bayern Munich. Otherwise, Barcelona is most likely to find things really difficult for them. Barcelona had a problem regarding the defensive line. But they did make some upgrades. I just think Barcelona risked it too much.

if barcelona did not take the risk of bringing in good players, in the next seasons they would be fighting to stay in the 2, 3 and 4 position or they would be fighting not to be relegated, this cycle would not make them get out of the financial crisis, on the contrary many good players would leave the team because they see that the team is not fighting to win the league and champions league and is going through a financial crisis. In order to attract partners, investors, sponsors, the team needs to have good players who attract a lot of attention and win big things like La Liga and the Champions League. Of course they might not win this season, but next season they might be able to win

Don't be surprised, Timo Werner has flop at Chelsea...

good players when they arrive at chelsea they fail, we have an example of lukaku, but now that lukaku is back in inter he is playing well. something that makes me question what's wrong with chelsea

[snipie]

gvardiol is a good option that chelsea can choose, reportedly both teams (chelsea and leipzig) have almost reached a final decision.

Don't know where you read that or whether it was a rumour or conflicting sources reporting that but AFAIK the deal was rejected by Leipzig.
That deal included an exchange of Werner, nevertheless, Leipzig agreed with him separately to cut his wage and the only remaining thing is to see the asked price by Chelsea.
For Chelsea, they have to find an alternative, again... There is Fofana but PSG is looking for him too and there is Pavard which is available for sale once Chelsea made an interesting offer for Bayern.

Really don't know what's up with Chelsea's owner.
With how it's going I don't know how Chelsea will cope with new player's.
That team isn't looking as sharp as it should be if you ask me

I think it would be a lot more realistic if Chelsea actually sought after players who were not on very good terms with their teams. They should also look for clubs that are more willing to let their players depart.

But whatever they have to do they should do it fast. Otherwise, they are going to leak a lot of goals. Right now I am hearing that Chelsea is trying their finest to get a defender ASAP. And in the media, they are talking about Chelsea being linked with a lot of clubs. But I don’t think all of that is true.

[Coyster]

Manchester City have denied they are willing to sell Portugal midfielder Bernardo Silva, 27, to Barcelona after reports his departure could fund a deal for Lyon's Brazil midfielder Lucas Paqueta. Does this mean that Silva is staying in Manchester or is it just a negotiating tactic?  

I don't think Manchester City have any reason to sell Bernado Silva, he is a very important player for City, especially in the way Pep wants them to play, i am pretty sure Silva is staying at the Etihad, and even if City are to sell Silva, he will cost so much, and Barcelona can't afford him, they have spent so much money this summer already, but the Blaugrana club have been pulling up surprises this summer transfer window, so they could still do one more.

Having said that, i am not aware of City's interest in the player you mentioned, i doubt City are interested in any more attacking players/midfielders, for now i think they have one more deal to complete which should be the end of their summer business, and that is to get a left back, Cucurella is the selected one, but Brighton are asking for too much, City might explore other options elsewhere soon.

[Unknown01]

After Cristiano Ronaldo complained about all the rumors, the media has calmed down around him. Nowadays it's really bad how rumors develop and spread, but I also think it's okay that he stays with ManU. What happens after his contract expires will be interesting.
