⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Despairo]

There are crazy rumors that Galatasaray are currently negotiating with PSG to loan Icardi and even more crazy sounds to me that they also want to loan Hazard from Real?! As if the transfer from Mertens + Torreira hadn't already been strong enough for their league? 

I think they're have too much money and want to burn it all, so they're looking for many players even the price are quite higher. It's not good to loan Icardi since he's almost never played for PSG and make sense enough to sign Hazard, though he's already old.

Real madrid can win easily against celta vigo which proves that losing casemiro was nothing for real.

What you can expect a weak club when they need to face Real Madrid? They've nothing to lose. I think if Ancelotti do so much change and only let in few experienced players, it's still compete Celta Vigo. There's a lot gap between them, so Celta Vigo almost impossible to win.

PSG has all sorts of rumors of late, first it was Neymar leaving because of some bad blood in the dressing room with teammate Mbappe, and now Icardi leaving....interesting couldn't get any better.

Anybody caught wind of the potential move of Maguire the United player to Chelsea or it's just some fans trolling the lad?

Anthony absence in training on Friday and Saturday, all points and make it clear that he will not be part of Ajax XI vs Sparta Rotterdam today. He's keen on joining the premier league side, Manchester United and he fully expect Ajax to negotiate with Manchester United when the red devils place a new bid. That's his only aspiration at the moment, he liked the club and consider it as his priority to be part of Erik's project. The Brazilian have no uncertainty about his decision to exit Ajax. To my proper aspect, he's the player Erik ten Hag wants at the moment in his Frontline to reinforce both Cristiano Ronaldo and Marcus Rashford.

Anthony is reportedly not in the Ajax team against Sparta Rotterdam because he wants Ajax Amsterdam to complete the negotiation process with Manchester United regarding the new offer that Manchester United made to Ajax Amsterdam. Fabrizio Ramano said that on his twitter.

I think Anthony wish will be carried out by Ajax, because Ajax want their former winger Ziyech to return from Chelsea who did not get a main place in Thomas Tuchel squad. If Ajax releases Anthony to Manchester United and they manage to bring Ziyech home from Chelsea, then Ajax will benefit, because the cost of selling Anthony will be greater than buying Ziyech.

Maybe I am from the future, but the Casemiro deal is pretty much done and stamped.

You know what? Casemiro is officially move to manchester united , it's been announced by the club.

So I'm late for the first name, it's my fault for not seeing the announcement.

As for the other players, I'm interested to see how Manchester United build their squad in the midst of their uncertainty about keeping Ronaldo. The rumored Dest from Barcelona looks set to be a good addition to the squad this season after Casemiro was announced. But I'm also really looking forward to Antony from Ajax, it will make Manchester United even better.

[Avirunes]

if they want to play Casemiro as a defensive midfielder, is it the right decision with this lineup? Casemiro's move to Manchester United is already a controversial decision on its own, playing him as the defensive midfielder is probably more likely to cause controversy since he is an attacking player by nature, i am not sure but i think Real Madrid has used him as a defensive midfielder but i think he will be better as an attacking one, and obviously, he’s not the one to solve all the problems of Manchester United, but i expect more supply from the midfield after Casemiro joins them

I strongly disagree as in my opinion Casemiro is a defensive midfielder and not an attacking midfielder. However in couple of last year's he might have contributed in attack but don't mistake him as a attacking midfielder. His primary job is ball retention and defend against attacks which he is good at. He is a strong ball possession holder which United urgently requires right now.

Transfer rumours:

Chelsea have offered £15m plus Spanish defender Marcos Alonso, 31, for Barcelona's 33-year-old Gabonese striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Considering the financial situation of Barcelona, this deal could be realized.
Borussia Dortmund chairman Hans-Joachim Watzke has denied speculation linking the Bundesliga club with 37-year-old Portl forward Cristiano Ronaldo, he says there has been no contact with the Manchester United star. Has Ronaldo really become so desperate that he will go to any club just to leave Manchester? 
Real Madrid are considering a move for Tottenham Hotspur and Denmark midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, 27, to replace the outgoing Brazilian Casemiro, 30, who has agreed a deal with Manchester United. Hojbjerg for Casemiro? Is this a good decision by Real?
Ajax also want to bring Morocco midfielder Hakim Ziyech, 29, back from Chelsea if 22-year-old Brazilian Antony joins Manchester United. How realistic is this combination about bringing Ziyech from Chelsea?

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is still very active and can perform in the Premier League, hopefully he will put an end to their striker worries. He will be active on the left flank for the blues. £15m plus Alonso seems fair enough to me, I read personal terms have already be agreed between Aubameyang and Chelsea and we should expect an agreement soon.

manchester united is making a last-ditch effort to reorganize its squad at the end of the close of the transfer window this summer, ronaldo is still part of erik's plans, so i'm not sure if ronaldo will leave easily from old trafford.
Casemiro has been obtained from Real Madrid, currently Man United are negotiating with Barcelona for a Sergino Dest deal.
it looks like anthony will join the red devil squad, the deal to get the ajax winger no longer has any significant obstacles.

well, erik is currently rebuilding his squad in the midst of adversity and a crisis of confidence. we'll see later, if he will make it or not.

[Kayeshlyn]

On September 1, 2022, the transfer window will close at 11 p.m. The possibility of Chelsea including Marcos Alonso in the deal to sign forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Barcelona has been the subject of ongoing transfer speculations between Chelsea and Barcelona.

The projected value of the contract under discussion ranges from £15 million to £25 million. However, the ongoing discussions have not yet resulted in a compromise between the two parties.

The addition of several players is expected to make Manchester United appear better. Casemiro, Dest, Anthony will make their defense stronger and can also help creativity attack. I also have my doubts about Ronaldo, but if it's actually the addition of a few players that he's hoping for, then it's time to stay.

It's never too late to improve the quality of the team, especially when Manchester United are desperate to get a number of quality players. So there is hope to see them competitive this season even though at the moment they are doubtful for that.

Marcos Alonso to Chelsea and Aubameyang to Barcelona is a peng crazy deal. Xavi and Barcelona has  Alonso on them shortlist for some time but no agreement has been met till this  week. Chelsea as got to do everything in them power to bring in Aubameyang else they'll see some difficulties leading to scoring goals.

Manchester United has rebuffed all talks leading to Cristiano Ronaldo's sale, his agent still trying to force a move but have got no agreement with any club. ( Champions League Club ) So moving to Dortmund ? Nah!

Well we'll see how it goes down within the week, bit when Real Madrid comes knocking , one should be very wise to take good, great and fast decisions! Ancellotti said he is okay with the current squad but pretty sure they still need some replacement for Case!
  Hojbjerb is a warrior who will sure fit in any club, and he is a good passer if the ball and tackler.

Hopefully Antony from Ajax joins Manchester United, that would be one of the best deals to be secured, Manchester United has only one winger working and that's Sancho we need both wings effectively moving.

Thanks for the information! Daniel 91

Depay's move to Juve sees setback due to last moment high salary demand from the player. This transfer would have allowed Barca to register Kounde. Juve's alternatives are Arnautovic and Milik. They all don't sound to be up at Juve's level but seems like they are all linked with Juve for now.

Memphis Depay was kicked from Barcelona and his contract was not extended by Barcelona while Juventus have seen good potential so I'm sure they will still take Depay to enter the big club Juventus, when Juventus managed to bring Depay then they have 8 strikers ready to compete this season, with his experience when he was still playing in La Liga I think the management fully hopes to get the best contribution from Depay.

The projected value of the contract under discussion ranges from £15 million to £25 million. However, the ongoing discussions have not yet resulted in a compromise between the two parties.

The transfer window is only a few days away and for sure times like this will be a busy time for clubs to realize the transfers of their target players, just as chelsea are now starting to target several players to strengthen their defense as well as attack, the addition of Alonso in the transfer of Aubameyang proves if it looks like chelsea is prioritizing aubameyang to replace Lukaku as a central striker, reportedly chelsea offers 15 million pounds and also marcos alonso for barcelona for the sake of get aubameyang, chelsea desire to get aubameyang is none other than because Tuchel is very familiar with the typical aubameyang game because previously they had worked together in dortmund, besides that  Aubameyang experience playing with Arsenal certainly made him no longer need time to adapt to playing in the English league.

[gabbie2010]

Casemiro's transfer to Manchester United means he has Manchester United at heart, for a top player like him to come to manchester United this terrible time.

Lol, how does he have Manchester United at heart, yet he has never played for them?  

It was always about money. Manchester United were offering much more money for him on top of a longer deal. Real Madrid were willing to make at least 60M out of him, so it was obviously business as usual.

Of course Manchester United offered more money, so Real Madrid deal a good business in the transfer of casemiro. New agreement of casemiro contract signed with 60 millions Euro. casemiro a important part of real Madrid forward, but Real Madrid missed casemiro.

Real madrid has been getting its replacement. It's not so difficult for big team like real to get a replacement. Casemiro's motive from moving from real to MU caused by money. I didn't even see any other reason. Remember that MU was also lack of trophies and its performance was also the worst in the premier league. So, that makes sense to think that his motive caused by money and no more.
Real madrid can win easily against celta vigo which proves that losing casemiro was nothing for real.

Eduardo Camavinga and Aurelien Tchouameni played alongside Modric in Real Madrid 4-1 against Celta Vigo with a perfect combination their midfield thus Casimero position had already been filled, Casimero contract offer by Man Utd is mouthwatering, irresistible and very enticing for a 30 years old, Casimero prefers to sign for a struggling team over a standard club due to juicy offer involved, infact there are some backlashes by some section of the media criticizing Man Utd for signing Casimero who is almost at the peak  of his career, how well he is going improve the quality of his new club time will tell.

He will be active on the left flank for the blues. £15m plus Alonso seems fair enough to me, I read personal terms have already be agreed between Aubameyang and Chelsea and we should expect an agreement soon.

Rumors of Aubameyang to Chelsea are now nearing an agreement and you may remember when he left without saying goodbye because Arteta considered him an incompetent player. Now if he manages to take a contract with Chelsea then we will be very much looking forward to playing against Arsenal. Because then Aubameyang can show Arteta that what he did to him in the past was a big mistake.

[Oneandpure]

This deal is going to be really profitable for Barcelona. Barcelona needs a lot of money right now and I am not sure if Pierre Emerick Aubameyang will be part of Barcelona's long-term plans for the future. This is an excellent deal for Barcelona because they will be giving away this player and they will be getting another player for £15 million. In my opinion. Barcelona should agree to this team's request. And if they can get a little more money out of Chelsea it is going to be the cherry on top of this deal for Barcelona.

Difficult financial faced by Barcelona right now after still not registering with new recruitment like Jules Koundé I think could be priority for Barcelona selling Aubameyang to Chelsea, I think £15 million could be expensive transfer values and Barcelona not make Aubameyang as regular player position on attacking line. Trough still need to cut off several percent salary accepted by senior player I think better selling Aubameyang and make better condition with all Barcelona player. Left few days before window transfer close and Barcelona still have chance negotiating with Chelsea to give best offer values for Aubameyang. I think Chelsea urgent looking for with central forward and will pay higher price offering by Barcelona.

I just don't understand why Barcelona has bought Kounde and Lewandowski in the first place if they were not even sure if they have enough money to be able to register them. Now they desperately need to get rid of some of their players or some of their newly signed stars can't even play for them even though Barca has already sold club property worth around 500 to 600 Million € that is just absolutely crazy to me.
The way the FC Barcelona officials are dealing with money in the last years is absolutely irresponsible and if they continue to do this in that way then i think Barcelona will be completely bankrupt and out of order within the next few years, and rightly so if that will be the case.

Believe it or not, Aubameyang contribution to Barcelona is quite large. From several matches during the last half of last season, he has contributed 13 goals. The sale of Aubameyang to Chelsea at this time is indeed very unfortunate, but because Barcelona also needs money to increase the registration fee of its players in the automatic League, Aubameyang is quite close to selling.

Transfer rumours:

Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva is to be offered a massive new deal by the club in a bid to persuade the 28-year-old Portuguese to stay despite interest from Barcelona and Paris St-Germain. So it seems that Silva is staying in Manchester after all, or maybe not?  
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has been given approval by the club's owners to spend his way out of trouble - by chasing deals for Netherlands pair Frenkie de Jong, 25, of Barcelona and PSV Eindhoven winger Cody Gakpo, 23, as well as Ajax's Brazilian winger Antony, 22. Whenever they have problems with the team's results, Manchester United's answer has always been the same: spend even more money and buy more players. It hasn't worked very well so far  
Michael Knighton, who tried to buy Manchester United 30 years ago, believes the Glazer family will sell the club in the next year and backs British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe to take over.  Can the new owner change anything?  
Real Madrid will use the money from Casemiro's sale to Manchester United to pursue a deal for Borussia Dortmund and England midfielder Jude Bellingham. Bellingham instead of Casemiro, is it a good decision?

Casemiro has won every title he could with Real Madrid, so moving to another team (especially with a salary doubling) looks like an ambitious decision. As a Real Madrid fan, I'm a little worried that the best trio of recent years, Casemiro-Kroos-Modric, is not breaking up according to plan, but in an accelerated way, but I think that Ancelotti will be able to take Real Madrid through this stage without loss.

Casemiro move to Manchester United was a bit of a surprise, during his time at Real Madrid he has formed a strong midfield trio with Kroos and Modric, he has also won everything with Real Madrid including 5 Champions League titles. If someone says Casemiro's move to Manchester United in search of a new challenge, it certainly doesn't make sense, because Manchester United is in the process of reforming and it is very likely that he will find it difficult to win trophies with Manchester United.
Casemiro decision was only about money, at Manchester United he would earn a much bigger salary than Real Madrid. Casemiro departure will not weaken Real Madrid midfield, Ancelotti can form a new midfield trio filled with Tchouameni-Kroos-Modric.

Looking globally, now was almost the perfect moment for this transfer: Casemiro is in his prime and now he could get that salary (doubling) and Real get good money for the transfer - as United are willing to pay as they are shocked by their results and are frantically looking for strengthening. If the replacement of Casemiro with Tchuameni would have taken place gradually, then neither the player nor the club would have received such a profit. By the way, after yesterday's excellent game by Tchuameni, I am calm about Real Madrid - this is an equivalent replacement and Real Madrid has not become weaker.
