⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[arimamib]

Sergio Busquets once made a statement, he would continue to be at Barcelona until coach Xavi needed him, but in that statement, he also opened up opportunities and possibly moved to another club. Rumors are developing that Inter Miami is linked to Sergio Busquets, but until now there has been no official statement from either club management or the player.
Barcelona is preparing a long-term project by strengthening young players in the coming years, that's why Sergio Busquets has doubts about staying at Barcelona, ​​especially since the player's contract will expire in 2023.

I think it will be completely Xavi Hernandez's decision for Sergio Busquets' future at Barcelona. He will continue to be in this team if he is still needed to help Barcelona. And also I heard that Xavi Hernandez is struggling to keep him speaking specifically to the management. That means Xavi Hernandez still has high hopes for Sergio Busquets to stay at Camp Nou. This is a pros and cons among fans, because many also think that it is time for Barcelona to let go of this loyal player.

When Barcelona financial condition is in a crisis stage, retaining players who are in the main squad makes more sense than having to let them go without any income for the club. Barcelona cannot bring in players in the January 2023 transfer market due to fair play, releasing Sergio Busquets will make it difficult for Barcelona when several of the midfielders they have are injured. Barcelona must be realistic in making decisions, especially since their financial condition is not good.

Tough choice for Kane - practically both Real Madrid and Bayern can guarantee domestic titles and a high chance of going far in the Champions League. That's what he needs right now - it's sad for such a good player to have so few titles at 29. I think that even if other clubs from the Premier League make him a good offer, the right choice would be to leave for the titles.

Real madrid will be a better choice for him. As long as he can perform so well like benzema and he would able to take benzema's position. that gives more guarantee caused by benzema is old enough. I don't think benzema will stay in real madrid for long term. Benzema may retire in madrid. Kane's age was old enough too (29 years). He was rarely getting titles by playing in totenham and stay in totenham will become the most stupid choice.
I hope he doesn't even think to stay at totenham or he may not able to evolve his career in the football by getting a very prestigious trophy like UCL

Yes, given the competition in the Premier League, the chance of getting a title with Tottenham is very small. And probably Real will really be the best choice, because in the 4-5 years that he can still spend at the top level, he will definitely get several La Liga titles + golden boot + will have a good opportunity to get Balloт D'or. Perhaps Lewandowski is right that playing in Spain you have a better chance of individual awards.

No problem. Kane can compete with lewandowski. Kane never got a good trophy since his career. He never won prestigious trophy with totenham. He has no choice other than leaving from totenham or keep playing there until he retire without any prestigious achievement.
He will be getting golden chance if real madrid was offering him. he must not missed that chance. Kane shall not miss that chance like mbappe which has been regretting his decision for not moving to the real madrid

as the swiss 'blick' reports with reference to turkish media, several clubs are interested in Haris Seferovic (galatasaray istanbul). the striker, currently in qatar with the swiss national team, is said to have attracted the interest of feyenoord rotterdam, schalke 04 and servette geneva. Philippe Senderos, geneva's sports director, is said to have already traveled to turkey to consult with galatasaray officials about a transfer.

If Harry Kane joins Real Madrid then the chances of him getting something he didn't get at Tottenham would be huge. He must not miss the opportunity that comes to him if Real Madrid are really serious about bringing him to the Santiago Bernabeu. At Tottenham it was very difficult for him to get the title that is the dream of a professional player. Moreover, he has very good ability on the field. And also the team that wants it is a big team that is better than his current team. It would be the right decision if he accepted an offer from El Real.

The major reason I'd happy he's leaving is because the Barcelona would obviously be in good hands with both Gavi and Pedri playing fantastic and next to world class football, and De Jong would just need to be retained at the club and along side Franck Kessie. I'd also expect Jordi Alba to be approaching a similar decision, but he might have to stay for another year though, because he's current contract is valid until the summer of 2024

de Jong - Kessie duo would be really good for Barcelona if they keep de Jong in the team. There have been many speculations such as de Jong will leave the team. Firstly Manchester United started to be interested in him and they were so close for a deal last summer. But Barcelona were demanding more money which blocked the way for this transfer. de Jong didn't seem very eager to join them though. Some other teams like Chelsea have also been speculated with him but there is no action yet.

He is an important part of Barcelona as it can be clearly seen in his stats. He has played in every single match in various tournaments so far - he was benched only one time. His playing time has also been very satisfying for him. Therefore there is no reason for him to leave now.

His performance under Xavi has been very good and indeed we can't rule that out.

Its more realistic that Kane joins Bayern Munich and not Real Madrid. Real Madrid is looking for a second striker but as long as Benzema is in Real Madrid he will be the first striker and Kane probobly dosent want to be on the bench even tho he can finally win some trophies with Real Madrid. For him a good move would be to move to Bayern Munich.

The issue Manchester United had with Ronaldo was their unreasonable expectations of him. in his senior year. They blamed him for everything because they expected him to act like a 20-year-old boy. Ronaldo had an outstanding season last year, winning the most man UTD and EPl player of the months awards. He finished third in the league in scoring. What else did they want from him, I wonder sometimes. Was going back to his old club against the law?
Gakpo Cody is a Player man UTD should bid for immediately to replace Ronaldo. however, If the squad relies on martial this season,  Martial will hurt them.

In essence, Cristian Ronaldo was uncomfortable and had to leave due to the termination of the contract by Manchester United management, Cristian Ronaldo was one of the top scorers for Manchester United in his first season. But in the second season, Cristian Ronaldo's sharpness diminished and disappeared altogether. Rumors circulated that he often fell out of step with the coaches' thinking, not only with Erik Ten Hag but also with previous coaches. The quality of Cristiano Ronaldo is clearly different from a few years ago, besides that he is no longer young and is no longer productive.

Dutch player legend Jaap Stam also spoke about Cody Gakpo, he said that the player needed adaptation if Manchester United reached an agreement with the player, as if this was a sign that Cody Gakpo was getting closer to Manchester United.

if kane were to play for real madrid he would not be sitting on the bench, he is an excellent player who would undoubtedly be playing 90 minutes with or without karin benzema, he would be playing 90 minutes, looking at the real madrid players who are the strikers it is clear that they have difficulties in scoring goals without karin benzema, sometimes they even manage to score goals, but they suffer goals and the game ends with a defeat or a draw, so if they manage to sign kane then the real madrid team would have a lot stability in attack and they would be able to score a lot of goals, I think it would be a good thing if real madrid managed to sign kane, he is a player with a lot of potential but at tottenham he will not be able to go far, he will not gain anything in individual terms

Fofana is a good defender, there is a difference between  someone is not playing well and someone is not playing at all because of injury. By next year I believe he will be back strong to help his club fight for top 4.
You should not also say that all the Chelsea transfers were failed transfers. Sterling is helping Chelsea and no one can say that Sterling transfer was a failed one. Gallagher transfer is also not a failed one and even with time Cucurela will develop into Chelsea pattern.

There is also a difference between someone being good, and someone being good enough to pay 80 million for. I know there was a release clause and that's the reason but City paid about 70 million give or take for Haaland, whereas Fofana cost Chelsea 80 million just for his transfer and then he was also paid a salary as well.

This means that we are talking about a team that overpaid for a player. Yes Fofana is good, and yes he played badly this year and maybe will come back better next year, but in no case he deserved an 80 million transfer, he wasn't THAT good. They could have found another player that would be cheaper and as good as Fofana for sure.

[Avirunes]

Juventus are said to be interested in Gvardiol these days. But their future is still not clear at the same time after the last incidents. Chelsea have been interested in Gvardiol for a long time already. They got really close to a deal last summer as well but they didn't do it later on. They went for Fofana and spent like 80 million euros to sign him.

Fofana was a bit mistake that already made. Signing him for 80 millions euros was the biggest mistake. His contribution was not a lot. Chelsea was still using the old back like thiago and azpili as the main players to defend from attack that will come from opponent. So far all of transfers happened in chelsea can be categorized as failed transfer.

All the transfers were made as Tuchel needed. Now it is Potter and he will need new players to work along a better squad. It is hard to see the actual idea what Tuchel had in mind with the new transfers and squad then. I still wouldn't call their transfers a big mistake as they desperately needed defensive players and that is why they signed players with amount bit over the top than the actual value. Fofana is slight injury-prone is what I feel but I think he is a decent player. He will put up some better performances once he is back for sure.

As for Gvardiol, it would be interesting to see which big clubs will be trying to get hands on him. He however has indicated that he is happy at Leipzig but if even Chelsea are to pursue for Gvardiol then they are  not alone in this race for sure.

If Harry Kane's aim is to get the title then interested Real Madrid and Bayern Munich would be the right choice for him. But if his goal is his loyalty to Tottenham, then he's not going to leave even if he won't win any trophies there. Moreover, Tottenham themselves still have a great desire to keep him in the squad, and also I heard Harry Kane would be willing to sign a new contract with Tottenham.

According to AS, Atletico Madrid would be ready to sell Joao Felix for 100 million euros even though it is quite below the price they signed him for. This is pretty interesting news to me honestly because Felix is still one of the critical players of the team now. I haven't heard of any financial trouble by their side as well. Maybe it is related to the news about some teams might be interested in him these days. However the amount Atletico Madrid asks for is really huge comparing to his current market price - €50m.

I don't think there would be any team interested to pay that much for him now. He is of course still a young and talented player but this is way too above his price. Maybe Atletico Madrid must have wanted to give a signal like they won't be easily giving up on him.

I am not so surprised by the news that Felix is interested in Manutd, at this time only Manutd is watching Felix, there are several big clubs who are also doing that, including Chelsea, PSG and Bayern. even though the ATM will suffer losses, but if felix stay at the ATM for too long, his agent is afraid that Felix's potential will fade, Felix has in the last few matches not been a starter at ATM.

Busquets must be leaving from barcelona. he has no chance anymore in the club due to the his age is too old. He must think about how he can get money once his age become even older. He has no big name like ronaldo which has been signed by al nassr with a very big amounts of money. He may need to leave from barcelona as soon as possible before barcelona try to kicking him out. Barcelona already planned to buy enzo fernandez as a replacement for him.
He has no choice other than let his position to be replaced with a young talented player. He must realize his age is not young anymore and his era already ended.

Sergio Busquets contract over on June 2023 and still not reach agreement deal for extended or not with Barcelona, I don't think kick out Busquets from Barcelona team squad after his contributing with many trophies achievement although he was not young age right now. Based on appearance in this season I think appearance still important player for Barcelona actually until the end this season.

Sergio Busquets become the last Barcelona senior player right now after Gerrard Pique have announced retired and he has potential make Barcelona as the last team in his career or potential playing for MLS League team.

Cody Gakpo has scored in all matches at the World Cup so far. And he has already managed to score some nice goals. Perhaps it is good for PSV that they have not yet sold him in the summer, because now his market value will have risen considerably due to his goals scored and especially the way in which he has been scored. So big clubs can probably sign up for Gakpo after the World Cup. What do you think he could bring in the current market? I think you have to think of a price tag of around 60 million at least, and he can probably only get better and then leave for a team like Manchester City or PSG, Real Madrid.

Currently, the interest for this player is only at Manchester United and there is still no other club that intends to bring this player to my knowledge.
He is good enough but looking at it from the other side like Manchester City or PSG you would say whether he deserves the qualifications because of course there are still a lot of players who are in the same position at these two big clubs.

[baeva]

Kylian Mbappé continues to be of interest to Real Madrid and multiple reports suggest a possible signing next summer. There is no end to this drama, and I am tired of watching it. Kylian Mbappé is rumored to be hating Real Madrid for choosing PSG over his dream club. At the moment, he is one of the best, and he plays the same position as Vinícius. As far as I'm concerned Madrid don't need him at this point with Rodrygo and Vinzius around.

Mbappe only wants one thing - money, this became clear after he refused to move to Real Madrid because PSG offered fabulous money. He has effectively sold his dream... Lately you can see his attitude on the field, everyone should give him a pass and should help him, at Real it will not be like that, you either play with the team, or you do not play at all, maybe that`s why he can not play in RM

I think Mbappe closed the doors and will not move to Real Madrid at all. He promised them that he will move their and ended up tricking them and staying at PSG. He isnt happy at psg and wants to go to real madrid but that wont happen anytime soon. I think they are just dissapointed with him and probobly wont make any offers

His happiness will last as long as he gets paid huge amounts of money. PSG management have said their main aim this year is to keep Messi and sign him because they liked his performance last season and half of this season so maybe someone will have to cut his wages to keep him.

[Pulsar77]

PSG are expected to start the talks with Lionel Messi for extending his contract after the end of the World Cup.

I assume it wouldn't be any longer than a one-year extension. Because I don't think that Messi would make long-term decisions at this age. He would like to just see how things go and act according to it. He has played really good for PSG until this moment. He has improved his performance level even more by this season. It is good to see him adapting to a completely different team as well because people were highly criticizing him for not having played for any team other than Barcelona before. Now as PSG aim to win the Champions League title they don't want to lose Messi until achieving that at least.

Based on appearance in this season I think appearance still important player for Barcelona actually until the end this season.

Next year, Busquets will be 35 years old, I think Barcelona won't extend his contract because he is already at the age when a player can't play at the best level. Xavi seems to prefer looking for a younger defensive midfielder for a future squad of Barcelona. There is no big advantage to keep Busquets in the squad although Busquets has a lot of experience. Xavi should be aware to build Barcelona midfield line with young players now. It will be a better option for a Barcelona future.

Sergio Busquets become the last Barcelona senior player right now after Gerrard Pique have announced retired and he has potential make Barcelona as the last team in his career or potential playing for MLS League team.

Yep, he is the oldest Barcelona senior player. I assume Busquets already considers leaving Barcelona soon. He must know that he is no longer in the best form and it is the right time to play in a smaller league like MLS before he retires. Or he may think to play in other leagues, to have a new experience.

Hold up, Am I missing something? Did I get into some sort of comma recently, only to wake up when Jordi Alba had already left Barcelona?
He is 33, soon turning 34, Sergio is just a year older than him... Shouldn't we consider him a senior player too, or is there another criteria for determining Senior players?
