⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[LUCKMCFLY]

Atletico Madrid must be close to making the deal permanent now. Griezmann has always been showing his best performance at Atletico Madrid actually. Barcelona have made a huge mistake by signing him permanently. Now they are just trying to get rid of him as fast as possible. As they have made many transfers in the recent times, they had better raise some funds to relieve more financially.

Maybe they have made new sponsorship deals they are still not in a very bright financial condition. As they are going to pay a lot of money for salaries as well it is better for them to sell Griezmann. His salary is quite high now.

For me this thing about Griezmann is something that I don't like about the big teams, both Barcelona and Real Madrid, when the players are of a certain age they dismiss them as if they were worth nothing, this is something very bad, I see it badly and I think that it goes against the entire trajectory of the players, more so because it is when a player needs more from his club for everything it has given him, now the case of Griezmann is different because Barcelona already did it with Messi and if they did it with him, what is expected for the other players? all he does is burn them and sell them to the highest bidder, he would really like to stay at Barcelona.

Frank De Jong again? That guy had good chances of going  to England teams, especially to Manchester United but he chosed to play in Champions league because Manchester United is playing in europa league. In short time he will also see himself in the Europa League  . If he sees any good offer by January he may leave.

In the previous transfer window, he has an opportunity moving to Man United but he refused it since Barcelona still didn't pay all his salaries. As far as I know, the reason was about the salary, not about Man United not playing in UCL. Sure, he finally will play in Europa League also because Barcelona seems hard to qualify for the next stage in UCL.
Frank De Jong is no longer a key player for Barcelona, he spends much time on the bench now. No doubt that he will leave Barcelona if there is a top club makes an interesting offer. Barcelona also needs fresh money to balance the players' salaries. So, it will be good both for De Jong and for Barcelona as well.

Although I support him 100%, Under Xavi's management, Frank De Jong has lost his role as a key player for Barcelona, which is an unfortunate.
Frank De Jong was benched by Barcelona, and it didn't work out well. De Jong is extremely upset about not starting matches and may leave FC Barcelona if things do not change. Leaving would be better for him, but he refused earlier after making so much controversy. The upcoming January transfer window is a great opportunity for him to move to a better place when he gets enough playing time and he doesn't make any excuses for not moving.

Seeing De Jong warming the bench for Barcelona during this season makes me quite sad. He had the option of moving to Manchester United, but I believe that that transfer would have been very detrimental to his career. Let's just take a look at the current situation at Manchester United right now, shall we? There is no doubt that even Casemiro is not playing well with them at the moment. As such, I think if he had transferred to Manchester United, his career would have been jeopardized. In the next window, he ought to look for alternative options that might be ideally suited to his needs. His play style would be well-suited to the double pivot that Bayern plays, and that is one of the reasons why I think Bayern would make a wise option for him.

Of course, Bayern is the best option for him, I think that the problem with Manchester United is the Technical Director they have, the truth is that he seems to me to be a very stubborn person who does not take advantage of his good players and what he does is sit them on the bench , which is a total lack of respect, the truth is I don't know how they won against Tottenham, I think that Tottenham played so badly that not even Kane himself was seen in the game, I saw him very lost, so Man took advantage of this United to win, CR7 is also speculated that he will return to REAL MADRID and if so, it seems great to me, because apparently Luso wants to play in the UCL, Casemiro's case is different, but he must leave Manchester as quickly as possible.

Benching experienced players like Frenkie de Jong is disrespectful. Frenkie is being treated very badly by Xavi, he should continue starting the game, and Busquest should be benched. In the coming transfer window, he must move to a better club.

Frankie de Jong should go to a team where he would play full-time instead of sitting on the bench and watch games. It's unfair that Sergio Busquest is the one keeping one of the fantastic player barça have and Xavi don't see Frankie as a starter in his strategy. There are many team managers that could welcome him in their squad and Frankie is creative interms of key passes to Frontlines. He always have Interceptions and chances on the pitch, he's way better than Sergio, Frankie is young, have the strength and speed to make a counter attack, unlike Sergio Busquest who's getting old for the long runs. 

Well I'm not a fan of Barcelona, but I like to review the comments on social networks and they say that Xavi is the worst, that he always brings in the same players and that he doesn't take out Busquest, so this is something that intrigues me, could it be that Xavi is not the salvation of Barcelona? so now how will they do if Barcelona does not get the results, from the lens it can be seen that the one who made all the changes at their convenience was Xavi or the "Xavi Project" something that seems unusual to me but seeing the desperation of the Club they decided to trust in it, if he doesn't do anything in the UCL, then Barcelona is eliminated, and that would look very bad, and it goes without saying that they looked very bad in the classic.

It seems like Chelsea are also keen on letting Lukaku remain at Inter for a longer time by extending his loan contract there.

Even if he was going back to the chelsea and it will not be included in the starting line up and so there's no choice for him other than try to stay at intermilan. Intermilan's owned was also trying to sell its club. That means the future for this club is still remain unknown.
Lukaku has been taking a good decision by staying at inter rather than going back to the chelsea again but i don't even think inter will make him permanent caused by club was facing financial problem.
The owner of inter will be facing the dead line to pay the loan. that's also a very big loan.

It is much better that he stays at Inter, they put him there to play, if he comes back to Chelsea they may not include him from the beginning and that is usually a big problem, because I have seen every player who sometimes does not do very well well because they leave them on the bench with the excuse that they "adapt" to their game scheme, if he were at Man United with the coach they have, I'm sure they would never put him on again, then these are the things they have What to see the players when they are like that, the best thing is that they can transfer them for the good of their teams and the player, for me Lukaku is already more Inter than Chelsea.

FC Bayern is interested in signing Konrad Laimer and currently has the best chances in the race for the Leipzig central midfielder. Julian Nagelsmann is a big fan of the 25-year-old and already wanted to sign him in the past.

At the moment, Bayern are leading the race to sign Konrad Laimer. Julian Nagelsmann wanted him in 2021 and in 2022 and he’s pushing for Laimer as a priority in 2023. English clubs have been in touch with his agent but it’s still early stages.

In addition to FC Bayern, several English clubs are also interested in signing Laimer. Especially FC Chelsea. Transfermarket is showing the following probabilities:

IMHO, I don't know exactly what to make of a transfer of Laimer. FC Bayern is already extremely strong in midfield and instead of a new midfielder I would be in favor of signing another striker. What do you guys think?

the evening standard reports that eintracht frankfurt defender Evan Ndicka has emerged as a transfer option for arsenal london in their attempts to find a left-sided centre-back to provide competition for Gabriel.

If arsenal wants to stay on track to win then they must be able to add depth to the squad in January, right now arsenal is still performing quite consistently in the league but if we look at the depth of arsenal squad they are still not qualified, especially their reserve squad, apart from defenders, I think midfield should also be more attention by arteta, speaking of Ndicka, I think he can be an alternative option for arsenal after previously they failed to get martinez, but reportedly the competition for Ndicka will be very difficult because Tottenham, Juventus and even now Frankfurt are still trying to extend Ndicka contract which will expire at the end of this season.

[Oluwa-btc]

The Arsenal top management have promised to support Arteta with finances in the January window if he decides to boost the squad with new additions and at this moment I trust Arteta to be master class in Arsenal’s transfer dealings. I am definitely hopeful for new and experienced signings in January to boost the quality of the squad and improve the depth of the squad also.

Overall, Arsenal's attacking midfielders and defense were pretty good until week 12 of the EPL
Arsenal are quite firmly at the top of the standings and behind their extraordinary achievements this season, the option of adding players through the upcoming transfer window will have an impact on Arsenal. The aim is to improve performance and maintain their current position because surely Man City and Tottenham will work even harder going forward to get rid of Arsenal from the top of the table.

Yeah you know, I want to see them at the top of the standing since my favorite team to win the Baclays Premier League Tottenham Hotspur are not in a good form which I expected from the start of the season.
If Arsenal can maintain this tempo consistently from January next year to May, then, it's a clear compass that they will finally emerge winner's of the Premier League.

Yeah, Manchester City are doing absolutely stunning/ brilliant game after game, week in week out despite the loss against Liverpool over the weekend but they have been a major threat to any club at the top of the league, in th long run, I hope too many fixtures doesn't get them Fvcked especially during Europa League.

It is reported that Romelo Lukaku has returned to training after a long muscle injury but he returned to training to prepare for the start of the Champions League match against Viktoria Plzen. I hope Lukaku can appear again and play an important role for Inter Milan in the future.

But there are other rumors about Lukaku who will be terminated on loan is it possible because he is often injured so that his declining performance makes the coaches reluctant to extend his contract on loan?
But it is said Inter & Chelsea they will decide next season about Lukaku's future.

For the wages the clubs pay him, esp in the EPL, he's so overrated.  He was hyped to be 'the next Droba' when Andre Villas Boas acquired him to be the spearhead of the attack in Chelsea years ago.  He was only 19 that time but he turned out to be a flop.  He's levels lower than Drogba.  He's good if he can bully the defenders which he can mostly do outside the EPL.  But in the EPL...?  He looks heavy footed and clutsy.

I had a good time giggling here reading the last six words about Romelu Lukaku, both at Manchester United and Chelsea, he shouldn't have thought of a second return to Chelsea after a perfect stay and career turn around from all he went through at Manchester United. I hope he gets back to scoring ways for the sake of Belgium.

Returning to Chelsea not guarantee for Lukaku get regular position under scheme Graham Potter depending his performance in this season with Inter Milan not quite, absent several games with Inter Milan trough still injury I think need for Lukaku scoring goals again if want get regular position at Chelsea. However new manager at Chelsea seems the same if Lukaku can't back to top performance again and seems Graham Potter not easy to give regular place for Lukaku. Still left one half season more and I think if Lukaku can back to quite performance Inter will try several option to extended loan or permanent with Lukaku transfer from Chelsea.

Lukaku no longer wants to go to Chelsea because his condition is still not fully recovered but strangely at Inter he played great and made the Inter coach have to buy him and also Lukaku said if he did not want to linger at Chelsea and wanted to return to Inter immediately , If his desire is like that then he should consider it well because it is not easy to get into a big club like Chelsea and of course Inter have to spend quite a lot of money to buy Lukaku.

At the moment Inter's condition is different from when he was before.
He could shine that time because Conte was able to maximize his ability well but now the era of Inzaghi and Lukaku is very difficult with this.
I think it will still be difficult for him now because regardless of what if his performance is not as good as the first time he was at Inter then indeed Inter will also be reluctant to keep Lukaku.

I don't think we need anymore defenders. We have Tierney and Zinchenko on left hand and they are perfect. Furthermore, Tomiyasu is also sometimes seen playing on that position. About Gabriel, he plays as centre back and he also has signed a long term contract today so I think we are full and perfect squad. Any more signings will only go only to the bench and nothing else.

[KTChampions]

Everything you say is unprovable, it's a matter of taste. For example, who would have thought that Zidane is good enough to lead Real Madrid and win the Champions League 3 times in a row? The same goes for the Mourinho-Guardiola comparisons. For example, I don't even consider it proven that Guardiola is a better than average coach - he had prime Barcelona, prime Bayern and prime City (endless budget, most expensive club in the world). Can anyone say that he achieved something special with these clubs? Not even close.

What I should prove to you?  
Are you trying to say Guardiola never achieved something special with Barcelona, Bayern, and City because they have strong squads and big money? Dude, do you ever see PSG? They have a strong squad, they have endless money too. But why they cannot win UCL? It is because they never hired a top coach like Zidane or Guardiola. Having a strong squad and endless money will be nothing if they are managed by a bad coach. Guardiola many times proved that he is a top coach, he won many prestigious titles until the last season. I don't need to explain it a lot, just checked his records yourself: https://www.transfermarkt.com/pep-guardiola/erfolge/trainer/5672.

Lol   I'm not trying to say this because it's a fact. Guardiola does not have a single achievement with a club that would be slightly lower than the cosmic level. Barcelona of the era of the gold team of Spain, Bayern of Jupe Heikens and City with an endless budget. With all these clubs, he has mediocre records (lower records would be a complete failure). And we don't know (and obviously never will) what Guardiola could have won if he had coached some not top club.

By the way:

Dude, do you have some kind of split personality? Or you yourself don’t notice that you just put Guardiola down because he can’t win the Champions League with City (and he couldn’t with prime Bayern)

And we don't know (and obviously never will) what Guardiola could have won if he had coached some not top club.

Finally I am not the only one that doesn't rate Pep exceptional. I don't undermine what He has done but saying he his greater than Mourinho, Wenger and SAF is something I disagree with. Take a look at what Arsene did in Arsenal building his squad from academy boys. Also SAF in 1999 had a whole man utd squad that one treble with a whole academy boys except Just one single player. Then to Mourinho, he managed an unknown Porto team to UCL glory and then move to Chelsea and won the league from nowhere, also setting the tone that made Chelsea competitive up to today, should we talk about how he also faired in Inter winning treble and so winning Madrid's first league after a long time with a record 100 points.

The only exceptional thing pep has done his gather his the 2009/2010 barca squad that some even say its the greatest. But after then he has moved to clubs that are already established and did nothing. Both man City and Bayern were winning domestic titles before he came and he his yet to bring UCL to this team after spending a lot.

I think it will still be difficult for him now because regardless of what if his performance is not as good as the first time he was at Inter then indeed Inter will also be reluctant to keep Lukaku.

After from Inter to Chelsea Lukaku's performance declined and it made the Chelsea management decision to loan him to Inter Milan for one season, but after he was at Inter Milan his performance had not recovered but after he was injured it worsened his situation until now, and even now there is news about Lukaku being ready to be loaned again to Inter Milan for another season before Chelsea will sell him later despite saying they lost millions of dollars.
It looks like Chelsea don't want him to return to Stamford Bridge considering that there is already Aubameyang who is even more relevant than Lukaku, it is said in the Mirror article Inter will be ready with this agreement.

I was shocked by the news from eurosport.com about Ten Haag saying that Ronaldo's contract had to be terminated. This is not good for United, when they are not in a good position, the coach and his star players have serious problems. I do not imagine if Manchester United granted the request from Ten Haag. With MU's current position, it's very clear that MU needs Ronaldo to get at least big four positions.

https://www.eurosport.com/football/transfers/2022-2023/furious-erik-ten-hag-wants-cristiano-ronaldos-manchester-united-contract-terminated-after-old-traffo_sto9195381/story.shtml

If this news is true, it is very unfortunate. Ten Haag cannot rely on Marcus Rashford only to be the striker the whole season, he may get injured and cannot play. There should be another striker, Ronaldo should be better than Martial. At least, Ronaldo is always ready to play, while Martial often has a problem with injury. Anyway, Ten Haag may have a serious problem with Ronaldo but terminating Ronaldo's contract isn't a wise decision. This showed to the public that Ten Haag and Man United management look not professional to handle the situation.

Dude, do you have some kind of split personality? Or you yourself don’t notice that you just put Guardiola down because he can’t win the Champions League with City (and he couldn’t with prime Bayern)  

Please think first before commenting, dude.
Guardiola is still Man City coach, you can't claim he fails to win UCL with Man City. Even, this season Man City is the favorite team to win UCL.
Sure, he failed to win UCL title with Bayern but he won 2 times UCL title with Barcelona.

"You look to have a split point of view. Previously, you underestimate Guardiola. Now, you defend him"  

*By the way, this debate will be endless because it is based on a personal point of view. And you never understand others' opinions.
This is my last response related to your comment. I have no time to debate with someone like you, it only wastes my time.

Steven Gerrard has been fired from Aston Villa. In truth, Villa have been poor with no cutting edge under him since he joined the team as a rookie. This had to happen! On the bench, he watched his team crumble. The idea of clubs sacking coaches so early in a season is quite surprising to me. Scotland would have been a better place for him to gain more experience. Before taking the job, he should have spent more time with the Rangers. It was too soon for the premier league job. Should have stayed to defend their Scottish title and gain more exposure before coming to a tougher league.

Is it just me or did it seem a wee bit too early? I think they could have given him a little more time. But they probably did not want to take that chance. It is true that Aston Villa has been underperforming. They have played 11 matches and got only 2 wins out of those. That is just not good enough and they are also seriously close to the relegation zone.

I think they actually made the right decision. Otherwise, it could have been much more disastrous if it was too late. I think he needs a lot more experience. Being a successful player does not mean he is qualified to be a successful coach as well. And the English Premier League is also one of the hardest Leagues in the whole world. That is a big reason why he failed.

[emrecemsan]

Galatasaray are speculated to be interested in signing Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gündogan now. As he has one year left on his contract now Galatasaray must be looking for an opportunity to sign him without any transfer fee.

However I don't think that this transfer would be realistic now. Because I believe that he is still one of the important players for the team and he might get a contract extension offer soon. Even if he doesn't there would be some bigger European teams on the line to sign him. Hence I wouldn't expect him to go to Turkey when he has bigger opportunities in bigger leagues. Caglar Söyüncü was also rumoured with Galatasaray before but it didn't happen. This story might have the same ending also.

[Iranus]

It seems to me that the most suitable option for Lukaku would be to somehow remain at Inter. He went to Chelsea for the 2nd time and he failed to deliver for them and returned to Inter which was not taken very light-heartedly by Chelsea fans. Aside from that, I also believe that his ability to score goals has declined quite a bit in the past couple of years as a result of his age. While he was in Everton he used to score bags of goals here and there and now he just can't. Further, I do not believe that Potter is going to be able to play him regularly if he continues to play in this poor form.

Galatasaray are speculated to be interested in signing Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gündogan now. As he has one year left on his contract now Galatasaray must be looking for an opportunity to sign him without any transfer fee.

But in this case they must be ready to compete because in some other rumors it is stated that now Juventus have also made a move to bring Gundogan from City.
But indeed this is speculative because until now Manchester City have not given any statement and Gundogan's contract at City is only a short time away.
This will probably be fun in January.

After what has happened, do you think Ronaldo would be leaving? I mean he was asked to train with u-21 after what has happened in the Spurs game, I am not sure if he still has a future in United. If he was 30 years old I would say they have time to recover from this, but this dude is going into his 38 soon, and he can't just stay and wait for them to forgive him or something, or make up with the manager. He doesn't have too much time at the top, he needs to play somewhere asap before he retires or he won't be playing at all.

I assume that transfer window is closed but if he was fired and he agrees on a mutual termination, he could totally find himself a team for cheap contract and keep on scoring many goals. Maybe do not look at the big name clubs, and start looking at smaller name clubs who would be delighted to give him all the playing time he wants?

Well it's hard to say but if things stay like this then very likely that he has to move. No one likes the situation they are in. Coach has to keep his job, team has to keep on winning and player has to keep on playing and at United it is hard to keep up with all the things right now. Unless they find a strategy to find something for Ronaldo that works for them also, he (Ronaldo) is gonna move out likely.

Its complicated but Ronaldo also gotta understand in my opinion. There are some standards and it's same for everyone. I believe ten Haag are setting right examples and it has to come down at one point at United.

That's right, this will obviously be uncomfortable because indeed, with their current condition, an awkward atmosphere will definitely be felt, especially if you see that he was sent to the u21s, this is clearly not something that Ronaldo can take for granted.
Now the chance to leave is getting stronger but for January whether there is a club that still wants Ronaldo as much as before for a big team because this will also be difficult to see.

It’s been a tough year for Romelu Lukaku, there has been a lot going with him, from falling out of favour with Thomas Tuchel to having a poor form and then dropping off the first eleven and getting shipped out on a season long loan and getting injured at arrival. I feel pity for him at this moment. Inter Milan has now ruled out a possibility of terminating his loan contract and wants to keep him until the end of the season.
