⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Complicated situation related to our attempt to get Jude Bellingham. Not because of rivals like Real Madrid but because Liverpool's management is a little frugal in spending big money to recruit players.
If Liverpool are willing to prepare a large fee to sign Bellingham, then there is a possibility that the Dortmund player will choose Liverpool over Real Madrid.

Yep, Liverpool isn't a typical club that wants to spend a big money to sign 1 new player. That's why they are difficult to compete with Real Madrid, Real Madrid is always ready to spend huge money on a potential player. Liverpool biggest transfer was only around €84.65m (signing Van Dijk from Southampton). While the market value of Jude Bellingham is around €90.00m, which means Liverpool must break their record in signing players if they really want to get Bellingham.

Anyway, Real Madrid already prepares an offer of about £87m to sign Bellingham, Liverpool must make a bigger offer to have a chance on signing him. To be honest, I doubt Liverpool wants to spend that huge money.

FC Bayern was interested in signing RB Leipzig's top player Christopher Nkunku. However, the €60m release clause in the contract only applies to foreign clubs and not to clubs from the Bundesliga. This makes a move to FC Bayern very unlikely that Bayern and Leipzig can''t agree on a "fair" transfer fee.

Christopher Nkunku's €60m release clause is only valid for foreign clubs. Bayern were interested and enquired to Zahavi's agency, but the fact they have to negotiate a fee with Leipzig made a deal impossible. Nkunku, meanwhile, looks set to join Chelsea [@cfbayern, @altobelli13]

Currently, a transfer of Nkunku to Chelsea FC in the Premier League seems very likely. Most likely in the next summer transfer window.

It’s a smart one from RB Leipzig to insert such conditions in Christopher Nkunku's deal to fend off bids or any form of hijacking from the league rivals lol. This certainly makes it difficult for Bayern to get the player and I also heard Chelsea already triggered this clause but I'm not so sure how true this news are but we shall find out in a short time.

Inter are considering of extending with Hakan Calhanoglu after hearing about some interest in him. Everton seem to be among the teams interested. However I don't see any reason for Calhanoglu to choose to play for them instead of continuing his career at Inter in a much better way.

When he left Milan to join their biggest rival like Inter, Milan fans were really disappointed and angry at him. He played great there and he continues to show a good level of performance at Inter as well. He scored a really nice goal against Barcelona also and it was important for the win. As a result I think Inter would reach an agreement with him for extending his contract for at least two more years. Everton had better focus on their game first because there is nothing attracting in them to convince him to come.

Bellingham and Musiala are both wonderkids playing in the same position. Their market values are very near each other also. I think that any of them would be a great choice for Liverpool. However I don't think they will be alone in these races. But Liverpool really need a solid midfielder now. They can't go on with Harvey Elliott in the whole season. Maybe these players are also very young like Elliott but I think Bellingham - Musiala duo are more talented.

I assume that it would be easier to convince Dortmund for Bellingham rather than Bayern Munich. Because Dortmund are already accustomed to selling this kind of skilled youngsters after some time passes. Bayern Munich are more like the buyer kind of a team when it comes to this kind of promising players.

Bayern munich would never sell Musiala to any club this youngster has a bright future in the colours of Bayern he would be price out by his club thus Liverpool will definitely keep off, meanwhile Bellingham will jump at any opportunity to sign for Liverpool if Dortmund and Liverpool agreed on his sign-on fee, of course Dortmund is synonymous with selling of their talented youngsters to big clubs thus recouping their investment in such players whom they signed cheaply that is indeed a massive profits, the likes of Abumeyang, Haaland, Manuel Akanji etc are products of that club, it's obvious that Bellingham will also follow suit in that order to big club.

Bellingham continue to play incredible by the way. His performance against Sevilla was really lovely. Apart from he got one goal and one assist in the match, he had really great skill moves which impressed us very much. He is such a good player on one-on-ones as well. In short, he is one of the players that every team would like to do their best to sign him.

Therefore Dortmund can have a really big difficulty in keeping him at the team even though they don't become eager to sell him. I assume that Bellingham also wouldn't like to stay anymore after this season as long as he gets a big offer from one of the best teams in Europe.

I think the last point you mentioned is the decisive one here. If Bellingham keeps playing like that and clubs like Manchester City knock on his door, I highly doubt he will stay. I am aware of the fact that he has a long-term contract without any clause to leave before it ends as far as I know, but that reminds me of Dembele. What are you going to say when a club comes and puts 150 million on the table and you are Borussia Dortmund? They aren't in the position to decline such an offer.

Right now Bellingham is an extremely interesting player because he can strongly accelerate the game and doesn't lose overview under pressure and in high speed situations. On top of that he can take any 1vs1 and has a great chance to win it. Pretty impressive player, not to mention how young he is...

There are very interesting rumours about Ronaldo recently and I don't find them much realistic to be honest.

Because he is rumoured with some Turkish teams like Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe. No matter what I can't imagine a legend like Ronaldo playing in the Turkish Super League. While he is still ambitious to play in the Champions League this would be a big mistake for him. I know that another legend like Roberto Carlos played for Fenerbahçe before. But I believe that it is different when it comes to a player like Ronaldo. I think the same for Messi also. Besides I don't think any Turkish team can afford Ronaldo's demands now.

The gossip about Ronaldo are getting wild recently because he linked with so many clubs without uncertain news and the news about this appears since last month
this because Turkish media Ajansspor that they claimed Ronaldo has personal deal with Fenerbahce manager but Ronaldo has refused this rumours because he don't have any plan to playing at Turkish league moreover Fenerbahce probably cannot pay his salary which is very high so this rumour probably will not going to happend but one is certain about him that Manchester United are willing to release him and to find new clubs in January so let see which clubs will be his destination

I am somehow okay with this recent development, I mean the decision to let Ronaldo leave in January, we know how much Ronaldo loves the game and loves to play and it wouldn't be nice to deprive him of that by keeping him on the bench. The season has reach week 8 and we have barely seen Ronaldo start a game in the league for United. Wherever his destination might be, I just want to see him playing.

[izsara]

The possibility is always there, but with the assurances he is currently in the first-team squad there might be another comparison.
We know that Rashford was also rumored to be leaving in the summer transfer window but this was muted and now there are rumors like this again.
This could be something of a long drama because still Manchester are still not budging on this and will continue to keep Rashford away.

Sancho and Antony may not be as helpful to the team as Rashford and Antony on the wings. Now that it's clear that Ronaldo is out of shape, I'd prefer to start Rashford up front. Ronaldo wasn't playing well tonight; he had a chance to score but his luck one again ran out.
Playing Rashford in the top 9 doesn't seem technical to me because I believe he was playing at his right wing position tonight. Manchester United currently needs Rashford's speed and pace. Rashford has participated in 8 games this season and scored 5 goals. I hope he maintains his form for Manchester United because that is excellent for the team.
For a stronger team, Ten Tang should play Ronaldo, Rashford, and Martial simultaneously.

Sancho and Antony's duties seem to be a little different from Rashford's because indeed these two players are more often used as wings assigned to mess up the opponent's defense but for now Rashford is more often used as a targetman to score goals.
Ten Hag clearly didn't want him to leave especially with Rashford's current state of being in pretty good shape.

Martinez have had some good seasons at Inter Milan, he is a very good player and excellent at top attacking line. I think Martinez will favour a move away at this time in search of a new challenge and new environment to develop. However the 25 year old is still in contract till 2026 and a market value estimated to be around €75m and I don’t think Bayern Munich will be willing to pay that much for him as things stand.

I guess that it's not going to be as simple as people imagine it would be. I mean he is a great player and Bayern would be lucky to have him because he would provide that goal machine they are missing so it is definitely a good idea.

But look at how many players Bayern ever paid a lot of money before, they rarely ever spend a lot on a single player, one of the reasons why they are so good right now is that financial genius moves they make, even for Mane they didn't pay that much. However, Martinez can't be bought for just a few dollars, he is the type of player you would have to pay a lot to get, and that's not going to be something Bayern feel willing to do.

This will be a close race between Liverpool and Real Madrid to get Jude Bellingham but with how bad Liverpool is playing this season i think they will give more money to sign him. Real Madrid lost the battle for Mbappe but still dont need that badly a player on that position while Liverpool does.

It seems like Kante is likely to leave Chelsea at the end of the season. Because his contract is ending on June 30, 2023 and Chelsea don't seem to be willing to offer a new contract to him.

Maybe this is related to Kante's not being able to play for a long time due to an injury and starting to get old at the same time. Personally I think that Kante is still a solid midfielder. They have Conor Gallagher now as a regular in the central midfield. It looks like they are contented with his performance now. Kante has newly returned from his injury of course so we will see how Potter's choices will be. If he starts to use him in the starting eleven often and he performs strongly then Chelsea might make an offer to extend with him.

We are gradually seeing more of very good players aging and losing their touch, it will be no surprise to see Kante making a move away from Chelsea in the January window. He has become prone to injuries and has been substituted for many weeks even last season and this season making it difficult for him to cope in the league and playing for a top team and with his contract ending in 2023 and no further plans of the club extending his contract.

Another problem for Kante now is that his injury this season is quite severe and he has to rest for 5 to 6 weeks to recover and until now he is still in the healing phase.
This is clearly an obstacle too in my opinion because indeed with this it will be very difficult for him to be able to maximize his performance like the previous seasons.

When we talk about transfers, I think that the Juventus coach is also ready for a transfer. But what will Juventus do when he is gone? Then they need a good replacement in the short term. Zidane probably won't want to do it. And how many credits does Allegri still have as a coach of Juventus? Where do you draw the line? After last season, things really had to change for Juventus to play better, but nothing has worked out, and they have also been able to attract players in the summer. I'm curious how bad Juventus will have to go before they send him away. Maybe he can go to Sevilla, they also fired their coach this week.

[Furious 7]

Really worth of money with exchange to get him as a beast striker. that thing doesn't even make sense. Haaland was also choosing his dream team. That's why he was prefer to go to the city rather than another club. Remember EPL was also the most competitive competition that will give him more adrenaline to compete with another big club in EPL as well. There are some clubs that have been offering him but he was still picking manchester city as his main choice.

Erling Haaland is at stake here and for Manchester City now he is the key to victory and of course this is used well by Erling Haaland to score a good career and Erling Haaland hopes fully with the other teams to be able to work well together so that it is easy to score goals and can bring victory to Manchester City.

Interestingly now Haaland's quality with Mbappe is a little different in my eyes because indeed when he was in the Bundesliga he was always compared to Mbappe but for now I think he is certainly better than Mbappe because regardless of the level of the league they are in it is clearly different and Haaland able to perform well in the EPL even though currently Mbappe is still in quite a good performance but still Ligue 1 is still monotonous and Mbappe's quality can still be said to be reasonable because he plays in this league.

I think it’s more of Kante not agreeing to sign than the club refusing to extend his contract. There were conversations between Chelsea and Kante since last year, but were halted as ownership switched hands. He was offered a two year deal but it seems he wanted a longer deal and that’s why the deal didn’t go through. IMO, the I’ll point at Kante's injury problems as a factor behind Chelsea’s dilemma over handing him a new contract. I’ll wait for the club to resolve this contract talk before he leaves on free next season.

Is a shame that will are not able to see Ngolo Kanye as we would have loved to because of his constant injuries,but  that doesn't mean that he is not  a top player, Chelsea are keen to renew his contract because he is the best in his position, no one better when he is fit, Paris Saint Germain are very keen but his love for Chelsea is the reason he wants to stay at London, Graham potter can't compete with Manchester city for the title with Gallagher leading the midfield, with a kante fit, Chelsea are a top team.

Since N'Golo Kante joined Chelsea in 2016, Kante's form has continued to improve and Kante has made a big contribution to Chelsea.
Even Kante helped Chelsea win several trophies, unfortunately in the last two seasons Kante was often injured. So because Kante is
injured too often, according to news Chelsea will not extend Kante's contract which will expire in 2023. Chelsea also saw the game of
Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Conor Gallagher starting to show impressive performances, especially since both of them are still young.
So Chelsea no longer need the services of Kante, then Chelsea will most likely release Kante for free next year.

After all, there are rumors that Chelsea are interested in signing Mattheu Nunes from Sporting, this is like a sign that Kante will not renew
his contract at Chelsea. But since N'Golo Kante is still happy to live in England, Kante is likely to move to Arsenal or Tottenham, who are
reportedly interested in Kante. Moreover, Kante can be obtained for free, so we'll see where Kante will move. What is certain is that Kante's
chances of staying at Chelsea are very small.

What a career that's coming to finish; Kate is one of my favorite midfielders; he has a special combination of enthusiasm and attraction. Since Potter Graham's plan does not include him and Chelsea is unwilling to extend his contract, I believe he should get ready for a new challenge. His injury and lack of playing time have had a significant impact on him. I would like to see him compete at the upcoming world cup in Qatar, but in order for France to consider him, he must stay in shape and play more games.

[alpamar99]

Jamal Musiala's impressive performance with Bayern made Liverpool interested in signing Musiala. The problem is Musiala is a long-term Bayern project,
where Jamal Musiala has been prepared since 2020 to become Bayern's main player. After all, Bayern is not like Dortmund, where Bayern will not sell
the young players they have just for money. So I think it's almost impossible for Liverpool to get Musiala, because like Bayern are not interested
in selling Musiala. Therefore Jude Bellingham is a reasonable player that Liverpool can get.

Another problem is that Musiala's role at Bayern is also very good, especially for this season for Bayern, so it is indeed difficult for Bayern to let this young player go, especially since he can be a successor to Muller who is now getting older.
He can be an ideal replacement in my opinion with his performances in the middle of the field obviously it will be difficult for any other club even if it's Liverpool to bring in this potential young player.

Well at least it's like a good news for dortmund side lol as their rising star jude bellingham might won't be in bayern scouting list with musiala shining there. Whoever had an interest to bayern youngstar players ... it's like an impossible one to realize as you might have to splash really a lot of money.

Bayern might let him go in one condition , if the offer worth 5 times than what they set. Reasonable.

But in this case Dortmund is still not safe I think, Bellingham is still very interested in some big clubs at the moment even though Bayern may not participate but there are still several other big clubs who want his services at this time.
At least before the transfer window opened, several big clubs such as Manchester United, Liverpool and Manchester City said they were interested in this young player, although this is still a rumor but obviously it is still a little difficult for Dortmund to maintain its star.
But seriously it's better to go to another club outside the Bundesliga than to be given to Bayern lol.

[Pokapoka124]

A bit difficult for him to find a new club. His agent has been giving so many offers to the various clubs in the past and these clubs have been rejecting offers from his agent. I meant his age has become the main problem for him to continue his intention to play even more in the champion league. The performance from MU is really bad at this moment. I think that ronaldo has no chance other than try to make its current club to be able enter into the top 4 and secure the champion league ticket for the next season.
This time it's playing in europe league which is not make him feeling satisfied with it

After his form dropped so much, is it possible for a big club to sign him in the next transfer window.
I hope yes, there are big clubs interested in him. maybe by leaving Old Trafford his performance will be even better, and can find his rhythm.

However, if I look at the Omonia vs United match, it seems that Ronaldo has lost his sharpness. even in that game, he forgot how to score goals.
So as you said, it looks like it will be difficult for him to find a new club, especially a big club that is competing in the champions league. like it or not, Ronaldo must improve his performance if he still wants to be the main starter in the Europa competition.

I think finding a new club shouldn't be a problem, which club in the world wouldn't want to have a player like Ronaldo in their team, Ronaldo was in top form before he came to Manchester United, Ten Hag and the United squad made Ronaldo look bad. I believe he will do well in a better team, the only hindering factor should be his wage and I believe that will be why many clubs are staying away from the deal. This is a good time to take that big money deal to the Arab league, what else is there to play for, he already has every thing he want, trophies and even legacy so he should just play for the money now.

[CryptoPanda]

It seems like Barcelona are close to happy ending about Griezmann. They have wanted to get rid of him for a long time and he has been on loan at Atletico Madrid for some time. Now it seems like he is nearly a permanent Atletico Madrid player officially.

Because it is said that Atletico Madrid have already triggered his obligatory buying option and there is no turning back from it. His permanent deal is expected be for 20 million euros + add-ons (€2m-8m). His annual salary now is €12.5m so Barcelona are going to get rid of a big load over their shoulders. It is important for them as they have spent a lot of money recently.

Antoine Griezmann have been very impressive for Atletico Madrid, even though he has been playing from the bench he still strives and puts up a good performance every time he comes up and some times score goals with just 15mins or 20 to play, Atletico Madrid are impressed with his stat and want to make the deal permanent that way all parties will be happy so I think it is a very good options and decision Atletico Madrid have made.

I think no one can imagine that Ronaldo will not be able to find a new club after leaving Manchester United. Another question is that Ronaldo's ambitions so far extend specifically to the European club and with participation in the Champions League this season or a highly potential likely participation next season. Therefore, it is almost certain that Cristiano will make all the necessary efforts to stay in Europe at least for this and next season. Another question, his summer epic with the failed transition showed that it would not be an easy process and all this was organized too abruptly and spontaneously, and this is what scared off potential clubs of the transition. As far as I know, the current Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly really wants to organize the player's transfer in the middle of the season for marketing reasons and there is no Tuchel in the team who blocked the transition, and Potter's influence on transfers is not so significant yet.

To find a Club it looks like he will still be able to but for which club it is obviously still very difficult to predict because indeed with the current performance and with Ronaldo's current salary especially with his ambition it is clear that only a few big clubs can qualify for Ronaldo but the problem is performance, Currently, Ronaldo's condition can clearly be said to be declining and different from previous seasons. It could be said that age may be right but with a performance like this there are still big clubs who dare to pay Ronaldo a big salary. this is still a puzzle and will not be answered until it happens.
