⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Nasuhalugu]

Following their decision not to buy the Ecuadorian for £4.5 million 18 months ago, Manchester United has decided to once again express interest in Moises Caicedo.

Caicedo was linked with Manchester United in late December 2020 and January 2021. He was hailed as a low-cost transfer for the midfield talent who has already made his Ecuadorian debut.

Carlo Ancelottis career as a coach is coming to an end. Real Madrid will be his last team as coach. He will finish at the age of 65. Currently, his contract runs until 2024. An extension is very hopeless. Real Madrid is the best team and where better to end his career than at the best club. You can see from his statements in the TV that he has changed and become calmer like before. He is a professional and his successes are great: 4x the Champions League and 2x world club coach of the year.

Carlo Ancelotti is definitely a great coach and also one of the most successful ones of all times. For me he is the total opposite of Pep Guardiola. When Guardiola comes to a club, then he is changing up everything in order to make the team play football the way that he thinks is the best way and he is also demanding a lot from every player.
Carlo Ancelotti on the other hand is more of a good mediator that always manages to make the players totally trust him and to also give 100% for him in the important games. That is also the reason, why Ancelotti was so successful at Real madrid in the last season. He has a lot of good and experienced players there, that he only needs to keep happy.

we can compare Carlo Ancelotti with a lot of coaches and say that he’s better

for me, however, it was the Champions League trophy won by Real Madrid last year, he did not have a very strong team at all, but he pushed over the line with whatever resources he had in his repertoire, he basically didn’t have any defensive stability in the last season but he has won Real Madrid two major trophies in the last season

and that should make people understand that he is obviously one of the most talented, i am expecting a good performance from him and Real Madrid in the next season as well

Transfer deadline is August 30, that won't be long. Maybe Erik Ten Hag can also claim a transfer if he loses again at home next week? I don't think Ten Hag is a bad coach, but he has never coached big clubs. Would United have made a wrong decision by appointing him as coach. Does that also apply to trainers that there is a certain deadline that they are no longer allowed to go to another club to become a coach there? You would say no because trainers can be fired easily unlike trainers.

Chelsea are still very determined to sign Leicester defender Wesley Fofana. It is rumoured that they have already agreed with the player but they are having difficulties in making Leicester accept their offer. Because Leicester still demand at least 80 million pounds from them. Chelsea don't have money issues maybe but they might not be eager to spend that high amount of money for a centre-back on the other hand. If they are planning to make some other transfers too then this transfer might not happen that easy.

Fofana is 100% willing to join Chelsea looking at his reaction yesterday after their match with Arsenal,  him waving at the fans at the end of the match signals a possible move.While for the price Leicester keeps Fofana frankly speaking that £80 million pounds is a huge one for a defender and I think the reason is that Leicester City have seen how desperate Chelsea is in getting Fofana, therefore they want to take that advantage, though Leicester City initially did not want to sell Fofana and I guess this is why the price is high in order for them not to loose both in business side and player side because Fofana is one their most valued player.

I consider Wesley Fofana to be one of the best players in the league. He is going to be a great asset to the Chelsea squad and I believe that he will fit right in. It is not clear to me whether any kind of agreement has been reached on a deal. I have heard, however, that Chelsea is very interested in this player, and I have also heard that there is a very strong likelihood of a deal being made. Moreover, as I have heard, there will also be a record transfer in this deal. There is no doubt that the money for this player is going to be very high. Suddenly, it's no longer about what the player is worth, it's about what Chelsea needs right now, and that's all that matters. As well as having the means to spend the money, it is evident they are able to do so. It seems to me that Chelsea will be able to spend this much money on this player without any problems.

Actually, 3 weeks ago they did a mutual agreement.

The deadline has been postponed by 1 day and it will end almost in entire Europe on the 1st of September.

All coaches have their own plans and indeed there are several priorities to support the scheme that suits him so there must be some transfers of players.
Regardless of whether or not Ten Hag is satisfied with the current squad, there may be some players who are not included in his plans for this season so there need to be some changes in their squad.

The composition of Manchester United players is currently not in accordance with the scheme desired by Ten Hag, and that is the reason that Ten Hag in the first match has not been able to apply the game scheme he often uses when coaching Ajax, this season Manchester United have thrown away many of their old players but they have not found new players that are in accordance with Ten Hag wishes, but it seems that Ten Hag desire to get some players has not succeeded at this time, because management of manchester united does not seem very active in the market.

Is this one of the obstacles for Manchester United now because seeing their 2 matches not going well makes them even more difficult now with players who can be said to be above average.
Currently the transfer window is still open for them although there is still a little time left if they want to find some alternatives then it must be done now, but when they still can't find players then indeed Ten Hag can't force the composition of players and must optimize the existing squad.

I also come across such report which I doubt it's authenticity but from the reports I read this morning, Barcelona are considering to let him stay. I personally don't see him moving to Manchester united with the current situation they've having. I'm sure De Jong will not be too naive to make that wrongful decision at the moment anyway.

De Jong also knows that Barcelona is a very good place for him to stay now rather than moving to another team whose situation is very different at the moment.
Because Barcelona has also shown how the development of his team at this time and also his strength is much better this season when compared to last season. So De Jong is definitely not going to make hasty decisions for himself.

The problem is even though De Jong knows Barcelona is the best club, when he is not wanted there and indirectly feels like being kicked out of there why does he force things like that.
He was young and still had more hope. it would be better if he looked for a new club instead of being at Camp Nou as a substitute because obviously this would hinder his career as well.

Napoli has successfully hijacked Tottenham player Tanguy Ndombele and he will be in Napoli with loan for one year contract and at the end of this season Napoli had an option to permanently thevstatus of this player however Ndombele was linked to AC Milan before even since January Paulo Maldini has putting him into Milan watchlist but seems Ndombele has more interested moved to Napoli than Milan

It is a good move and good signing for Napoli, we have witnessed similar deal hijacking this summer...these teams have no chills, they are going all in for players of their choice and doing everything possible to get their targets. I'm sure Ac milan  have other alternatives to the deal. A loan and option to buy seems to be a good deal for me, his performance will have to determine if he will be signed on a permanent basis at the end of the season.

Tancredi Palmeri is reporting that Ronaldo was offered to both Inter and Milan - with both clubs rejecting the opportunity to sign him.

As expected, it will be incredibly hard to move him - he thinks he still deserves a top club but the reality is that even clubs like Milan won't risk with him, let alone clubs like Bayern or PSG.

I feel that United will be stuck with him until next summer, when he's a free player anyway.

Tancredi Palmieri is one of the worse sources in football.
Please don't read him for your sanity.




More rumors about Depay in Italy for signing his contract with Juventus in 48 hours.

[CLS63]

Chelsea are still very decisive about finishing up Frenkie de Jong signing. If you noticed Barcelona didn't prefer him in the starting eleven against Vallecano. This must be some indicator about him as there is still a possibility for him to leave the team. Xavi stated also that he could still leave even though he wants to see de Jong in the team. Barcelona are also not very likely to sell him normally but they can change their mind depending on the offer. And Chelsea are prepared to make a huge offer to complete the transfer.

I thought they said they won't be signing black players.
Ac Milan made some approach I wonder why they didn't complete the deal.
Napoli are now in a good position to grab him

[Pokapoka124]

Barcelona are still battling with financial crisis in the club, which has resulted to them selling out some of their assets to raise funds to cover expenses in the club. Good a thing they have surplus players in some positions and are opting to cashing in with those players who are surplus to required amount of players at each position. Obviously, Depay was important to the team after the January window but it is so unfortunate and necessary that someone has to be sold and it's a pity it has to be him, that is how football work you can be important today and listed to be sold in the next window.

Everyone has to move on, after all. There's just one problem: sometimes players develop a certain amount of love for the club in which they are. But I really don’t think that love can be formed in just one or two seasons. And things do change. Especially with the situation Barcelona is in right now things are going to change quite quickly. The players will have to adapt to that. Now if Memphis Depay leaves Barcelona it is going to be good for both parties. Barcelona needs money really badly and Memphis Depay will also be better off playing for another club.

The situation in Barcelona has changed, Barcelona doesn't want him anymore. Depay will spend his time sitting on the bench if he chooses to stay. It won't be good for his career if he cannot play regularly. So, it is wise if he decides to leave Barcelona, he can get a better chance to play in another club. There are some clubs interested to sign Depay, Depay must choose where he can regularly as the main player. Don't choose a team that he probably sits on the bench as well.

Tomorrow is a national holiday in Italy but the day after...


We have increasing rumors about Depay. According to them, he will be in Italy Tuesday.

Last Romano reported was that Juventus haven't made any bids yet but they are about to soon. With Depay's departure , it will mean Aubameyang to stay at Barcelona and not move to other club (Chelsea interested) as Barca intends either Depay or Aubameyang to let go and not both of them. Depay hasn't seen much game time so much likely that he will be the one to go.

I think Depay will end up being the one to depart the club as Aubameyang seems favourite to stay as he gets more game time than Depay in the team. I have seen news of a potential move for Memphis Depay to Juventus and as it stands it is more likely that the deal will pull through with the player also interested in a move to join the old ladies this summer and Juventus are hopeful the deal will be completed soon.

At the moment the possibility of him playing for Juventus is almost complete and I don't think there is a chance for him to stay because apart from him not being included in Barcelona's plans, he is also ready to leave and the Barcelona and Juventus deal doesn't have any significant obstacles there, so it really doesn't matter. there is yet another reason to stay at Camp Nou.

Fabrizio romano haven't published depay romor yet , but it's been there .. the rumor saying that juventus going to prepare for the official bid to get memphis depay service very soon , since yeah aubameyang and de jong refuses to leave camp nou on a cut-off salary ... depay had a glamour lifestyle to fill .. moving to juventus with slight higher salary will get a yes from him.

A win win solution for both , but so far .. nothing official yet.

Agree, he has no reason to stay in Barcelona squad. Xavi excludes him from his plan, and Xavi already has 2 top strikers (Aubameyang and Lewandowski). Depay simply has no space on Barcelona squad anymore, he is very expected to leave. Since Juventus seems quite serious to sign him, I think Depay will consider moving to Juventus as soon as possible. Now, it depends on Juventus that they want to give a salary for Depay as Depay expected. If they get an agreement about the amount of salary, I think Juventus will 99% get him as a new striker.

I hope de jong will change his mind and then he will take chelsea's offer again. I personally think that if he was staying in barcelona will become a very bad decision. it seems like de jong being so mad after he didn't include in the starting eleven. He must leave from barcelona. MU was not a good choice caused by such team was always loosing. It's better going to the chelsea. The chance to compete in UCL was there. He must make his decision before the transfer season end.

I agree that he does not have any space to fill in Barcelona. And Barcelona has better strikers and attackers compared to him. He also knows that he is not a part of the long-term plan for Barcelona. So obviously it will be better for him if he moves to Juventus. Juventus needs attacking players right now and obviously, he will be able to get a lot more play time compared to what he will be able to get in Barcelona.

I think his move to Juventus will also benefit Barcelona because Juventus is quite eager to bring him into the squad. As a result, Barcelona will be able to secure some much-needed funds from Juventus. At the moment everything does point toward Memphis Depay being transferred to Juventus.

if you refer to what Fabrizio Romano tweeted, it looks like Depay departure from Catalunya will happen in the near future, considering Depay is not included in the main starter in the Barcelona squad and this is not good for his career.
Some newspapers say Juventus have personally contacted Memphis Depay to conclude a deal, although the deal is not yet complete, however, according to the reporter, the I Bianconeri will make a formal offer to Memphis Depay in the next few days. 

I think that if Depay joins Juventus it is the best choice for his career and future and he can prove that he deserves to be a top class striker.
