⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Sterbens]

Now it is rumoured that Ronaldo is eager to sign for Chelsea if he gets an official offer from them. He is still in the World Cup and he is fully concentrated on the championship now. I don't think that he is thinking of his future for now. But the rumours about Chelsea are not new of course. We haven't received any statement from their side yet as far as I know.

However Chelsea are about to finish up the Nkunku deal these days. They will spend a lot of money for him to solve their issues in the attacking side. Because of this I don't expect Chelsea to go for Ronaldo at the same time. There might just be a chance for them to sign a six-month deal with him maybe until Nkunku arrives here. But we will see.

The opportunity for Cristiano Ronaldo to join Chelsea is still open, although there are also rumors that they are not interested in signing the former Manchester United player, but I have not heard an official statement, so maybe it is a rumor that is not true.
Cristiano Ronaldo himself is closer to finalizing a deal with an Arab league team and will earn a huge salary there. His performance in the World Cup is still good in my opinion, even though there is a decline but that is normal because he is no longer young.

[dezoel]

A Cristiano Ronaldo is a player full of ambition and also he is a person who works very hard to make it happen. If no offers come from European clubs then the Arab league is an option for him. But we'll have to wait until the transfer window opens and he completes his mission in the World Cup.
I would also like to see him still in Europe rather than the Arab leagues but it will be an absolute decision for him. The reason is that Arab league clubs also don't play games in wanting the mega star, they have been chasing Cristiano Ronaldo from last season and offering fantastic salaries as well. If Cristiano Ronaldo prioritizes money, then this is the right time for him. But I'm sure Cristiano Ronaldo puts money as his priority.

There is no doubt he is one of the best and highly skilled footballer who is looking for best end of his career and most chances we will be able to watch him in UEFA instead of any low quality Arab League which is surely not his level but in case if he has not good contract from any good club here in Europe than most chances he will try to have his new home in MLS which is also good and better instead of going into Saudi Arab League which is not suitable because I was reading few MLS clubs are interested in signing him and in case he also can do this like we have many players which have no good contracts in Europe have option to go into MLS.

Right now, for me money is not his problem because he is already achieved good goals about money in his life, and now he just needs respectable end of his career which is possible in Europe or MLS but for all things we have to wait for his last announcement.

Liverpool, Manchester City and Tottenham are joined the race to gets Atalanta wonderkid Giorgio Scalvini reported Scalvini has into their radar for this winter and i have no wonder if big clubs want him because at his current age he made his debut with Atalanta last year and since that Scalvini was playing regularly for this team moreover he has debut match too with Italy national team on June against Germany on Nation League and Giorgio Scalvini still 18 years old so he is potential player and can be upgraded his skill if he joined big clubs so it's only a matter of time for him to left Atalanta

Based on the latest news I heard that Inter Milan is the closest club to getting Scalvini, initially it was predicted that Scalvini would land at Juventus, but because of the financial crisis that happened to Juventus, they were forced to leave the race to get Scalvini.

BTW, I can't find any news saying that Liverpool, Manchester City and Tottenham are interested in signing Scalvini, can you provide a reference?

Potential young players are sought after for the future of a team, this is a very good thing for the team, because they will become future assets. Scalvini also has a lot of trust from his current team Atalanta even though he is still very young. This proves that he is indeed a reliable player in Atalanta's defense. But in my opinion, it would be nice if he came out of Serie A to gain experience.

He is a promising talents and I will only advice him to stay put in Atlanta. A scenario where Talents go to new club and don't flourish due to lack of playing time. A clear example is Amad in Man United. His lack of game time sent him to championship club Sunderland. Scalvini should just focus on getting regular football in Atlanta and then after one more season he could move to a top team.

Cristiano Ronaldo himself is closer to finalizing a deal with an Arab league team and will earn a huge salary there. His performance in the World Cup is still good in my opinion, even though there is a decline but that is normal because he is no longer young.

does CR7 not realize that he is not young anymore? I don't know who is actually behind the scenes so that CR7 refuses to lower his salary

actually, there are still many teams who want to accept him, especially Chelsea, Napoli, and several others, it's just that the obstacle they experience is that they can't afford CR7's salary

now CR7 is almost 40 years old, he will surely retire soon following other football legends and let the young players start to shine

[Maidak]

Al Nassr, club from Arab origin have offered salaries with quite high values ​​at this time, and if Ronaldo wanted to, of course he would be the player who has the most expensive salary in the world, but I think Ronaldo will not be tempted so easily by a large salary because from several interviews Ronaldo has continues to state that if he wants to continue his career in Europe, continuing to play in the champions league is Ronaldo wish and as a world star player, of course he does not want to retire from his career without having a prestigious trophy, even though Ronaldo is now almost 37 years old, he is still has a high desire to continue to achieve in his career and that is why I think Ronaldo will still choose a club that plays in the Champions League to continue his football career.

Right now, Al Nassr offer is already in front of him on table, but he is looking for other options which give him quality game and better sporting environment here in Saudi Arab things are not favourable for him so most chances he will not join this club and wait for January transfer window which is just few days away hopefully he will be able to have some positive response from UEFA which is his dream place but if we have no positive development then second option is Inter Miami in MLS which is also looking for him, and he can join this club as David Beckham is also looking for his turns hopefully he will be in good position for having good use of his last few years into this soccer game because going to Saudi Arab is surely never been ideal place for legendary player like Cristiano Ronaldo for the end of his amazing career.

At first, I thought this was just a joke, but now I realize that this is very serious. Al Nassr actually wants Cristiano Ronaldo in the team quite badly. I also thought that this was just a rumor. However, after watching that tweet from Fabrizio Romano, I was sure that a lot of money has actually been offered to Cristiano Ronaldo.

If Cristiano Ronaldo does decide to go to Arabia, he is basically ending his career and getting a fat check at the end of his retirement. Honestly, I think at this point, Cristiano Ronaldo should take that money because he has nothing to prove anymore. And this huge amount of money is enough to make sure that he is pleased after his retirement.

[Velvet78]

Money is not a problem at all for Arabian teams in the end. Al-Nassr is just ready to give everything to Ronaldo to convince him to play for them at least for one season. But it is up to Ronaldo anyway. He doesn't have money problem of course and he is still an ambitious player to be a part of the Champions League. But we don't know if he will manage to find a team for himself in January.

I assume Ronaldo would prefer to sign for Al-Nassr rather than waiting as a free agent until the end of the season. I don't think he would want to stay away from football for that long.

[Avirunes]

Nkunku is surely one of the top quality player in UEFA and his states are also giving all review about him and his skills, hopefully his he will be joined in this winter transfer window and start his new career at Chelsea on high positive note for them.

It's been quite some time that Chelsea have made some good transfers especially the forward players. The club has seen some up and downs also so it's time to bring good strong player. Nkunku has some good stats in Bundesliga and it will be interesting to see what he brings to the team and if he can provide exactly what the club needs at this desperate time. I think Chelsea also need some strong central defenders too.

[MAAManda]

He is a promising talents and I will only advice him to stay put in Atlanta. A scenario where Talents go to new club and don't flourish due to lack of playing time. A clear example is Amad in Man United. His lack of game time sent him to championship club Sunderland. Scalvini should just focus on getting regular football in Atlanta and then after one more season he could move to a top team.

That's what any talent developer hopes for, but if the club wants the money more than the club's long-term plans, we can't do anything about it. Clubs that want Scalvini are also not lowly clubs, including Inter Milan, Juventus (before they were affected by the financial crisis), Liverpool, Manchester City and Tottenham (I don't know where someone got this information). We as observers can only see the progress that is happening to Scalvini later, hopefully he will make wise decisions for his career.

Kessie seems to be on Inter's radar these days. They are thinking of a move for making him return to the Serie A. However I don't think Barcelona would be willing to sell him already now. He is a great investment for them considering the future. He is still a young and dynamic player. He missed some matches with Barcelona at first due to some problems but he is close to being a regular for the team. He still has an injury but he is expected to recover in less than two weeks.

Barcelona can build a really good midfield with de Jong and Kessie so they wouldn't like to talk about any deal with Inter. Actually Barcelona need money due to their financial status but I wouldn't expect Kessie to be among the players who can be sold now.

Honestly, I think at this point, Cristiano Ronaldo should take that money because he has nothing to prove anymore. And this huge amount of money is enough to make sure that he is pleased after his retirement.

When Fabrizio has discussed this, it is very likely that this will really get serious and of course the fact is now he is in serious talks and is almost over.
This offer is truly enormous for a player who is 37 years old. But indeed this is quite worth it because regardless of Ronaldo's presence there, it will raise Al Nassr and of course the league there that makes Al Nassr dare to give a price like this.

[Pokapoka124]

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.

One by one the veteran players of Barcelona, ​​will soon leave Camp Nou.
yesterday it was Pique who chose to retire, now Sergio Busquets. his contract with Barcelona will expire in June 2023. So far, the club that has always been linked with him is Inter Miami. whether he will follow Pique's steps to retire in his football career, or will he choose to play at another club, and yes, the most ideal is Inter Miami. and some rumors have it, that Busquets has revealed that he always wanted to play in the American League, and is himself open to a move to MLS. so it is likely that he will end his career with the Club owned by David Beckham, Inter Miami.

As for Enzo Fernandez, Enzo played well when the Argentina national team beat the Mexican national team.
he is young and talented. however, I'm not sure Barcelona will sign him in the summer transfer window. the reason is, currently Barcelona is still constrained by financial problems, not to mention that Barcelona is reportedly interested in bringing in Endrick in this January transfer window.

On the other hand, Real Madrid is also rumored to be interested in Enzo and Endrick. if we look at financial readiness, it seems that Real Madrid is the most ideal to bring in these two players.

It's so sad that we are getting to that time when we will barely see most veterans of football  playing top flight football. The likes of Pique, Busquets, Dani Alves will be leaving top flight football for probably tge MLS, I will definitely miss them all. It's time for the new generation to take over and the future looks good in their hands already. Barcelona will be looking at add few fresh legs to the team in January probably Endrick as one of the players I'm no so sure but we shall see who joins.

Ronaldo became a free transfer player in the January window, where many teams from various leagues are rumored to want to bring in Cristiano Ronaldo in this winter window. we even know cristiano ronaldo will receive the first offer from a european team for his next career. but if a team from outside Europe comes I think it will be a second consideration for cristiano ronaldo to accept it. For now I think cristiano ronaldo is focusing his energies on qatar world cup.

but if he moves to the Arab league, of course, Ronaldo will again break the record as a player with a very large salary offered by the Al Nassr club. but i hope he stays in europe for next season with his new team be it in serie A or Laliga if he wants to leave EPL.

Sure, but he's still playing on multiple fronts to either get a place in a top European club or big money in a league like Saudi Arabia.
Knowing how ambitious he is, I don’t understand how he has enough mental energy to do all this and not burn out psychologically. It's like an endless game with maximum stakes (plus millions of haters who try to hurt you for any reason and without) and he successfully leads it. Maybe he really is a machine? 

A Cristiano Ronaldo is a player full of ambition and also he is a person who works very hard to make it happen. If no offers come from European clubs then the Arab league is an option for him. But we'll have to wait until the transfer window opens and he completes his mission in the World Cup.

The reason is that Arab league clubs also don't play games in wanting the mega star, they have been chasing Cristiano Ronaldo from last season and offering fantastic salaries as well. If Cristiano Ronaldo prioritizes money, then this is the right time for him. But I'm sure Cristiano Ronaldo puts money as his priority.

That's the problem, he puts money before other factors, and most frustratingly, before his game. I understand that he values his presence at the club dearly, but at the end of his career he could have given up the money and played for a prestigious club rather than the Arab league. If he does decide to move there it would be unfortunate

In this case there are Inter and Juventus also actually started to compete to get the signature of this 19 -year -old player but it seems that this will not succeed for Juventus and the possibility they will resign because of the big problems they face today.
This is clearly one of the good things because indeed what is interested in Giorgio Scalvini is clearly a big team. But he must think carefully in this case because if the choice is wrong then the potential is he will fade a little.

Barcelona can build a really good midfield with de Jong and Kessie so they wouldn't like to talk about any deal with Inter. Actually Barcelona need money due to their financial status but I wouldn't expect Kessie to be among the players who can be sold now.

he looks to have difficulty developing his game at barcelona. Inter Milan really wants to bring in Kessie in the January window but Xavi seems to be holding Kessie for this season. even i think kessie will not go to inter milan because he will keep the ac milan fans feeling. Kessie is a midfielder who shined quite a bit when he was at AC Milan, but after going to Barcelona, ​​he seemed to have lost his sharpness on the field. This was probably triggered by a lack of playing minutes. barcelona will indeed sell several players in the january window to balance their expenses but i hope barcelona doesn't let go of kessie.

Real madrid has also been very active during this break to get players up front because benzema has entered an old age and real madrid must move quickly to find the right replacement for their front line next season.

Chelsea are preparing to pay 70 million euros for Nkunku transfer now. This is only for the transfer fee of course and who knows how much money they will spend in total. This is still a good agreement actually when we consider that his market value is 80 million euros. I wonder how they convinced Leipzig to sell him below his value. This transfer has a big potential for Chelsea hopefully. He has been a very impressive striker for Leipzig so far. I just hope that they don't have another big disappointment just as the one they had with Werner. Chelsea will need to wait for the end of the season anyway to have Nkunku in the squad though.
These are Nkunku's stats so far in the season:

With these stats and things which are happening in Chelsea after change of management and coach look like now they are having change of mindset which is needed for the better results because with these changes they can't go high in ranks and improvement of quality, they have good luck now we are heading for the winter transfer window, and they will be able to sell few players which are not adjusting in Graham Potter strategy and bringing of players those are capable of playing good for him, and they can win games at the crucial part of this season.
Nkunku is surely one of the top quality player in UEFA and his states are also giving all review about him and his skills, hopefully his he will be joined in this winter transfer window and start his new career at Chelsea on high positive note for them.

Christopher Nkunku is a competent forward. He is playing exceptionally well for Leipzig. He has scored a significant number of goals this season.
In addition to that, he has a high potential to be a very effective striker.

If this was even one year ago, I would have said that 70 million euros were a little too much for him, but now I think this is a good price for him. If Chelsea really wants him I feel they should actually pay that type of money for him because Nkunku is someone who will be able to give Chelsea service for a longer period of time.

We heard that Chelsea were also looking into bringing in Cristiano Ronaldo. But that would be quite inefficient for them compared to Nkunku.

BTW, I can't find any news saying that Liverpool, Manchester City and Tottenham are interested in signing Scalvini, can you provide a reference?

There are several EPL clubs that now seem to want to make Giorgio Scalvini at their club and indeed for Liverpool it seems they still want to recruit this player because Giorgio Scalvini can still be positioned as a defender or defensive midfielder which incidentally they are currently having quite a hard time there.
But seeing from Giorgio Scalvini's statement it seems that he is not too bothered by this and says he still wants to focus on Atalanta.

[fuguebtc]

It's like an endless game with maximum stakes (plus millions of haters who try to hurt you for any reason and without) and he successfully leads it. Maybe he really is a machine?  

Cristiano Ronaldo still at the top level performance on World Cup Qatar and I think he still has chance or regular position in the top European team like Serie A with Napoli and back to La Liga. But Ronaldo can't missing excited offering and opportunity coming from Al-Nassr FC want to pay more highest salary as sport athlete around the world, based on rumor Ronaldo can earn more than $119 million a year.
I think due Ronaldo career with football left two or three years later is logic when accepting join with Al-Nassr FC  for two years half.

I think Cristiano Ronaldo should take it easy on him. He is already in his late 30s. He will not be able to continue for a longer period of time. If he still wants to play for a team that is playing in the Champions League, he will have to perform really well at the top level of football. That is going to be pretty challenging even for him.

We can already see him not being able to handle things properly. Just like he claimed that the cool witch, Bruno Fernandes scored in the match playing for Portugal, and slapped a fall out of the hand of a fan. These are things that he would have never done unless he was under extreme mental pressure.

But it is up to Ronaldo anyway. He doesn't have money problem of course and he is still an ambitious player to be a part of the Champions League. But we don't know if he will manage to find a team for himself in January.

Al nassr already sent a proposal for ronaldo and that team was very serious with him. The choice will be on the ronaldo itself whether he will be going there or not. Ronaldo already free transfer since his contract with MU already terminated. Ronaldo just need to say yes or no to that proposal. We know that if some big clubs in EPL have been starting to be acquired by arabian consortium which has proven that how much money they owned to make that things to happen.

I assume Ronaldo would prefer to sign for Al-Nassr rather than waiting as a free agent until the end of the season. I don't think he would want to stay away from football for that long.

Im sure if he has been deciding the best decision for his future since MU terminated his contract and he will always play football until he will be officially announcing to retire from playing football just like what pique did.

According to the French press in the last summer, PSG with Mbappè acting as mediator tried to take LEWA before Barcelona but as we can say today, they failed.

€200m a year it's like the craziest bid ever recorded in history , that's cristiano for you the record breaker .. it's the branding mission for me , they tend to use cristiano to sell things there as the proposal contains a lot of business clause, cristiano might accept it 60% now .

And the rest is after the world cup ended, 40% loading now.
