⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[lixer]

Today I read some news saying that Kane is now postponing talks with Spurs regarding his contract which is running out.
Although the main reason is that he wants to focus on the world cup but there will definitely be other indications in this and this makes Bayern confident in what they are doing now.
Apart from that, apart from Kane being the top priority, they are also now looking at Marcus Thuram's progress at Monchengladbach.

If Kane is actually postponing his talk with Tottenham about his contract extension it means that he might be considering to leave Tottenham this season. My advice for Tottenham is that let him go if he wants to leave this time around, they should allow him to leave and it will give room for another good striker to come and it could be when Tottenham will be able to win some titles.

Most of the rumors about Harry Kane wants to leave Tottenham Hotspur is correct because he was looking for leave this club in last season but due to big investment and big promises he stays here for some more time but now things looking not good because there is no chance for winning any trophy or other thing which is every big players dream we will have significant changes in this squad in coming season because I am feeling Conte will also not extend his contract and Son is also now looking for another big club which is possible right now with most chances Bayern Munich is having Kane as their number one target for next transfer window this can give big financial boost to Tottenham.

There is no doubt that both Son and Kane are very capable players. It is going to sound controversial, but I believe both of these players deserve to be a part of a better team.

It has been a long time since they have been loyal to Tottenham, but I think it's time for them to move on if Tottenham doesn't take this year's English Premier League title.

Currently occupy the third position on the table. The team has a chance to win the title, but it is going to be quite a challenge to do so.
Moreover, if they want to win the title, they can't lose against Newcastle United and Manchester United if they want to achieve their goal.
If I am not mistaken, they also dropped points against West Ham. In order for them to succeed, they will need to be consistent.

That's not controversial at all, Tottenham has won nothing with them on the roster while they are at a talent level where they would actually make sense to play in a bigger club that wins something. Which means, if you look at the past UCL winners, they wouldn't really be a problem in any of those teams, they could have found a place in their club for Son and Kane if they were in their team.

This is why I believe that they are playing in a team that is lower than their talents, but since Tottenham is a team that is high up the ladder in premier league, they are getting paid good amount, and can't be bought for cheap neither, they can only leave after their contract is over.

Harry Kane is now a legend for Tottenham.  There are some players who are associated with the club, you know, like Gerrard-Liverpool, Terry-Chelsea, Giggs-ManUtd.  Harry was such a player for Tottenham.  I don't think it will transfer anymore.  He tries to achieve success for Tottenham and if he succeeds, I'm sure he will enjoy the success he will have at other big teams.

Harry Kane want to leave Tottenham, but Tottenham isn't willing to let Harry Kane leave their team. He's still young, if he only stay in Tottenham, he wouldn't become success since Tottenham is lack of quality players on midfielder and defender position. He need to leave if he want to achieve better club to lead his become a champion.
There's a news where Real Madrid want to sign Son Heung Min too, if the transfer is successful, Kane need to leave too. Son Heung Min really help Kane to score many goals, Harry Kane might not become powerful when Son Heung Min left Tottenham.

To be frank, Tottenham will remain at the same level two seasons to come, they don't have quality midfielder's and I mean the attacking aspect of the midfielder's to complement the defensive midfielders.
That alone has lead to Harry Kane and Son Heung Min dropping deep to help create chances for themselves especially in tough game's.
And it's sad that they are not ready to make plans for recruiting midfielder's. Antonio Conte is a good coach, but his chances of winning the league this way are slim.
I'm one of those championing the movement of those two players outta Tottenham Hotspur, one to Real Madrid and one to Bayern Munich, I'd lie if they don't deserve big club's, the qualities and goals are obviously embedded innit.

If I remember correctly at the start of the season Tottenham promised that they will bring in good players and they also promised Harry Kane that they are going to do anything needed to win the English Premier League title. That I really don't think that they are actually doing all they can. Some really good midfield players needed to be brought into the team. I think if these two players played for any other big team for this long they could have actually got a few trophies already.

Now there are again new rumours linking Barcelona with Lionel Messi.

It says that Barcelona president Laporta wants to see him in the team even in January. I don't see this news as realistic at all truthfully. Because there is no reason for Messi to leave in the middle of the season above all else. He must be happy at PSG for now as we can understand this from his high effort in this season until now. They have a target like winning the Champions League as well. I don't think that it would be sensible for Messi to leave PSG to join a team that aren't competing in the Champions League. I think the same even if a player has great memories with the team being linked. These rumours would drop some time later as a result.

They actually brought some good players. Its not like they haven't invested well enough. With CL qualification they needed players and so they got players in attack like Perisic (Conte however puts up as left wing back tho), Richarlison, Bissouma, Lenglet, Spence(young player with potential). Well Spence might lack the experience but rest of those players are really good ones in my opinion. They have good players in mid as well like Hojberg and Bentancaur who does as a great job in ball retention and moving around ball nicely in attack. Son and Kane are bit ineffective this season so far but if they start performing then I believe that Spurs will grab up pace in the table.

There are some new speculations about Manchester United's possible replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo. It is claimed that they might go for Joao Felix in the same month if Ronaldo leaves the team in January.

Felix hasn't scored a goal in this season yet. He made three assists in five games as a centre-forward so far. But he is still a very young player as he is 22 now. He has a bright future ahead of him but I don't know if he can reach his potential at Atletico Madrid. We should see him playing in the best European league also which is the Premier League. This is an opportunity for him also as a result. However I wonder if this is Erik ten Hag's thinking. Otherwise he can also have problems with him just as Ronaldo is having now.

I'm not sure how I feel about this rumor of Felix joining United. What United need is a lethal striker. Yes, Felix is an interesting prospect as a player, as he is young and has potential, but his recent form with Atletico says otherwise. United should opt for good goalscorers like Lautaro Martinez or players of his caliber who are consistent goal-scorers.

Moreover, Felix mostly plays as the second striker and I don't think that is what united need right now.

I think that the media now quite well how to frame and phrase certain sentences that people give in an interview for example. Maybe Laporta said that he would love to have Messi even in January, but that doesn't mean he realistically expects Messi to transfer from PSG to Barcelona. Also there is one major counter argument: Messi would never leave PSG now that they qualified for the final round in the Champions League in order to join Barcelona who were just kicked out. Messi's cock is ticking as well and if he wants to add another CL title to his total collection, then now is his best chance to go for it with PSG. There is no way he would consider leaving the club now. He'll do everything he can this season to make it a successful one. That counts for his club as well as for the national team. A transfer would make zero sense.

English players always like to play in England clubs than going outside England. That is why it is obvious that Kane will likely choose to play for Manchester United instead of Bayern Munich, only if Manchester United offers him a contract. But it is as if Conte will convince him to stay longer in Tottenham since they are playing well and are good contenders of both English Premier  League title and Champions League

Basically, this seems to be the case regarding Kane, there has already been information that he does not want to move to Germany, but everything will depend on the specific financial proposal - if it is significant from Bavaria, then why not. In the end, he already has a solid age and practically does not have any titles. Bayern can guarantee the German championship every year  + have a good chance of winning the Champions League every year.

I am also partially agreed with this statement that mostly English players don't like to leave their country but with his desire for winning trophies and having good financial package surely can change his mind with few seasons back before arrival of Haaland in Manchester City they were looking for him, but Tottenham Hotspur rejected their 100 Million USD offer as they were adding around 20 to 30 Million USD more which were not under their system to they bring two other quality players but right now situation in Tottenham is looking not good because they are not good enough for having any chance into title race so most chances he will leave for Germany and have his best time with few trophies are also possible.

About rumours related to Messi, I can say that he is going to make his decision upon his future at PSG after the World Cup ends. For now he is just avoiding to answer the questions about it.

I also don't expect him to leave in January even if he doesn't extend his contract with PSG. Maybe his future will be dependent on how successful they will be in this season. If they win the Champions League title then it might be very effective in his decision. He would prefer to stay then maybe. But if one of the amazing trio leaves the team anyway then Messi might prefer to leave as well. Especially if that player becomes Neymar I mean. Messi has a much better relationship with Neymar than Mbappe in the end.

[alpamar99]

Harry Kane is already 29, that age is no longer young for a football player. He must choose the best path to continue his career, he is unlikely to be able to lift the trophy if he continues to stay at Tottenham. Harry Kane is a talented sticker, so many clubs want to use his services. Bayern Munich had publicly expressed their interest in signing Kane in the transfer market last summer as a replacement for Roberto Lewandowski, but Tottenham are unwilling to part with Kane and are trying to apply for a new contract for him.

Speculation surrounding his next career move began to heat up again after Harry Kane postponed contract talks with Tottenham until after the World Cup. Kane must choose between loyalty to Tottenham who have made his name or moving to a club that can guarantee him to lift the trophy, Kane must choose the one that is best for him.

The decision is only in Kane's hands now, when indeed he is satisfied with the current condition then Tottenham is still quite good but if not and want to get a trophy for his achievements then Bayern is the right place at least even though it is difficult for the Champions League but for the Bundesliga this could be wrong one guarantee.
His contract is almost over and when he doesn't renew now things will be different for Tottenham who are still adamant about not selling this player.

Too early, he will tell his decision way later he still has the whole season with the champions league after the world cup.
The only way to go back to Barca is to announce a big cut in his salary or have a big part of his salary paid by the sponsor.

Also are you so sure is a good thing to have back a 35 years old player with his salary?

Yep. It seems only a rumor and has no chance to happen.
Messi focuses on his contribution to PSG and he never stated that he is unhappy there. Moreover, his performance looks very well this season and he has already adapted successfully in PSG. What is the reason to leave PSG now? As you said above, no reason to leave now. 

On the other hand, if he comes back to Barcelona, there is no guarantee of success as previously. Instead, it may be a bad dream, Ronaldo experiences it now. I am sure, Messi doesn't want to experience the same thing as Ronaldo does.

I think Messi is still very much in love with Barcelona for sure and it is possible that he still has a dream of returning to Barcelona because after all, Messi is a symbol of Barcelona's success, he started his career there and because of Barcelona, he can become one of the best players in the world. But if we look at the experience he has felt, that he had to walk away because Barcelona can't afford to pay him anymore due to the financial crisis. Then I think this will at least make Messi think further to go back there.

It seems like that media is never stop to create so many rumour like this. A day ago medie was also publishing some news about messi will not leave PSG until his contract will be end on june 2023. I think that this news was coming from barcelona itself especially from laporta, this guy is always create so many rumours but he doesn't even realize how bad the situation in the barcelona. He must paid salary for his player first rather than thinking to buy messi. Barcelona has nothing left to be sold again.
It has been loosing so many incomes from the various ways. it seems like the internal from this team is doing corrupt. The debt never got paid, the income become even smaller. Think about that.

Messi wouldn't return to Barcelona, in the past he was said he will stay in Barcelona until he retired, but what's the reality we're seeing now? He's leave Barcelona because he want to get better salary. IMO Messi doesn't really interested to get trophies and other achievement again, he already know his limit as an old player, he can't beat a young player anymore, but at least his skill still above average than most of football players.

I have heard that Manchester United is very close to signing Cody Gakpo, and that the move is very imminent. It has been reported that PSV have been offered £25 million for this player. Furthermore, I believe that none of the other competitions of Manchester United will actually be able to offer that much money for this player. In addition to this, PSV also values this player highly. Normally I think this is a good amount for him and PSV can decide whether they wish to keep him as a player or let him go.

Gakpo is one of PSV's mainstay players, in the last transfer market, MU had great interest in Gakpo but PSV did not agree to it and finally MU bought Anthony from ajax

If Gakpo is successfully bought by MU in the transfer market next year, then MU has a large stock of attackers and CR7 will get less playing time. Gakpo's contribution to PSV is very big, this is the reason why MU is interested in him

the future can't be predicted, that's why even if messi has a small chance move back to the barcelona doesn't mean if it would be impossible to happen. We must have learned from what you have mentioned above but we can use our logic to think whether it's possible or not for barcelona to bring back messi to the campnou with the current financial condition. barcelona is still owe lots of salary from its players.
Pique has not getting paid for this season, de jong is also waiting for his salary to be paid barcelona and many more. Some players have been deciding move from barcelona in the upcoming transfer season.
Barcelona needs to sell lots of its player to bring back messi or it may face financial fair play again.

I don't think Barcelona needs to do all that to bring Messi home. his arrival also does not necessarily make the squad better if they have to lose other important players.
It's not good I think to sell some players at the moment who are still helping Barca to fight. just to repatriate those one-stars who left.
I wouldn't say Messi has lost his form at the moment. but Barca should target young players who have more potential as their assets as well. rather than buying players who are quite old.

Thank you Awaklara for saying this. This is what I have been saying but Barcelona supporters refused to understand me. Barcelona fans are seeing it that if Messi returns everything will normalise. They don't mind sell De Jong and other young stars to bring back Messi. In as much as Messi is still playing well, his performance will reduce after the World Cup. All his efforts is geared at World Cup, if he crashes out whi h I know he will do, he might be demoralised.

In my opinion, given the team's financial situation, Messi joining Barcelona is unlikely. Xavi needs to pay more attention to the players at his disposal and bring in more talent in the January transfer. Messi has accomplished a lot in football, and he is no longer motivated to work toward a common goal or form a team.
