⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Will Barcelona still be able to make player transfers in January?

With the current condition from the barcelona's financial and im feeling doubt barcelona will able to buy lots of players. As far as i know that if barcelona was not only aiming for two players but six players being targeted by barcelona in january.
Barcelona was trying to get more funds by creating new sponsorship and extending the sponsorship that will expire very soon. Barcelona was always selling the players at loss. This club rarely making profit from doing activities in the transfer market.
I doubt that if all of players who targeted by barcelona will be able to be bought by the club. Barcelona has lost potential income from champion league. I remember when barcelona wants to sign free transfer players only

Barcelona can still bring in players in the transfer market with a note that they have to sell several players to balance the club's income and expenses. The arrival of new players is still needed by Barcelona, but with the financial crisis that is currently befalling the club, Barcelona must carry out its transfer policy properly.
Barcelona's main squad is already very solid, they only need one or two new players in the transfer market. In addition, Barcelona must open the exit door for several players who rarely get minutes to play to cut a number of expenses that can ease the club's burden.

Barcelona may able to sell some players but im not sure if barcelona will be getting lots of funds from selling some of its players. Barcelona has a very bad history in the football business and that's the reason why this club has so many debt compared with its competitor real madrid. Barcelona was alwasy buying new player with high price but the team will always be selling with the cheapest price. That makes me feel doubt if barcelona can get fresh fund from selling the players.
Remember that some players will be leaving the club in the free transfer status. I thought that if barcelona may not able to buy lots of players again in january

Apart from Partey, Arteta may still have Xhaka, Elneny and Sambi Lokonga in the defensive midfield position so his focus is on players in attacking positions. It is also possible that Arsenal have approached Amrabat but secretly so that the media does not publish to the public like other clubs.
If Liverpool want to get it because there are not many players in the DM position so the option when there are injured players like Henderson and Thiago then the focus is only on Fabinho.

Apart from Amrabat's ability that has been seen while defending Morocco, Liverpool's efforts to bring him to Anfield because there is not much money to be spent at a cost of around £30million. If this materializes, then the process of bringing Sofyan Amrabat is the same as when bringing Thiago from Bayern Munich.

Are you kidding me ?! LOL ..... I don't know why I find it funny that you settle for less and player's who must have lost them forms. Damnit, did I just write they must have lost them form ? They're completely dead player's and should leave Arsenal with immediate effect.
Sambi Lokonga ? Elneny ? Laughable. Of them all, Granit Chaka is the only better player amd currently plays an advance role for Arsenal.

If Arsenal eventually qualifies for the FIFA World Cup, having both Partey and Amrabat would make lots to of sense.
Liverpool already have Fabinho, someone tell me they're already planning for his exit, hmmm ?

But then, since Naby Keita and Chamberlain would be out that gives them an energetic and energized player to back Thiago Alcantara, Henderson, and Jude Bellingham just if he'll switch to the red's in the future.

I still can't believe that he is not moving to Al-Nassr, those guys offered him 500 million euro for 2.5 years, that is 200 million a year, how could anyone reject that? I get that he likes his freedom and being in Al-Nassr would mean that he would have to follow their culture or it would be a big trouble for him, all of which means even his family would be pressured into living the way they live unless they want risk, so that type of thing is a scary thing or could be at least and I understand that.

However, we are talking about FIVE HUNDRED MILLION EUROS! that is good enough to literally do whatever you are told to do, just way too much money to reject.

Cristiano just denying the rumor about he is going to sign for alnassr.

It doesnt mean he reject the offer though , just to cooling down the transfer rumor about him so he will have a lot of offers coming to him to pick , about cristiano recently at real madrid training ground ... it was cristiano asking for permission to florentino perez to use the traing facility along with his son after the worldcup , nothing agreed yet with any club he still free to sign!

the world cup is over, Ronaldo will get a club. For the moment he's training in Madrid to keep fit, and I don't think he will accept club from Arab he wants a completive club as a Goat he is. But if Madrid bid for him it's cool for him.

[rendravolt]

Every coach should have a fairly broad view like Graham Potter, he buys players who can fill in several positions and not just one position, so when the match feels difficult he can set a strategy by entering players who can fill these various positions and Nkunku is the best option so far, but I don't think chelsea will be satisfied with just one player, they will definitely buy more players in the future.

it is difficult to get players who can play in several positions at this time so when Chelsea managed to bring in Nkunku of course it was a fortune, being able to play in various positions would certainly make it very easy for the Graham Potter to formulate the right strategy for Chelsea game, the arrival of Nkunku I think will be able to replace the position who was left by Lukaku or maybe Potter will prefer to play Nkunku in a midfield position later, while playing at Leipzig Nkunku has played a very important role and I think next summer he will give the same thing to Chelsea later.

Some Chelsea players have a flexible position, such as Kai Havertz, who can play as a striker or second striker, but it seems that Nkunku here will be paired up front with Armando Broja, we know that Aubameyang's return to Chelsea will only put him on the bench. So whatever strategy graham potter will concoct, we should wait later, the opening match for Chelsea will only be presented on December 28 against Bournemouth and after that match there will be a transfer market next year, of course graham potter will be hunting for defenders this time.

I saw that Cristiano Ronaldo did not care about money, rejecting this offer. While it was almost impossible for a football player to earn that money, it was unthinkable for Cristiano, who did not accept the best deal of his career even at the end of his career. No football player could easily refuse this. An incredible offer. 500 Million Euros. I can't even imagine the size of the money. For a moment I thought I wished he had accepted.

between money and a career where if ronaldo accepts an offer from al nassr then he will be the footballer with the highest salary. For now there is no certainty about the answer from Cristiano Ronaldo whether he will reject or accept the offer from Al Nassr. If we judge Ronaldo, he is already at the end of his football career because he is old and his physique on the field is not as strong as before. So I agree with you he could take a lot of money over the next few seasons before he decides to retire. other players rarely get this fantastic offer so I think Ronaldo will consider this offer before he gives an answer.

The transfer market is getting closer, the big EPL teams are moving faster come near to the players they are targeting in January, Arsenal and Manchester United will be too busy looking for players in the transfer market this season because they need new players to strengthen team.

I think you are too exaggerated to link Ronaldo's family who must follow the custom there. After all, there are many choices for Ronaldo if you only understand the way of life and the style of the people there. Too narrow to relate trivial things, so this is Ronaldo and he is not following the amount of money or luxury things that are offered by Al-Nassr. So far what he believes is that it is still ideal to play in a European club and while that is still possible then there is no option for Al-Nassr in his mind.

[Woodie]

We can't understand Cristiano at times but if he rejected this move then probably its not about the money any more... Maybe the man still wants some silverware in his trophy room to leave his mark and is hoping for a match more competitive league than Saudi Arabia.

I get that he likes his freedom and being in Al-Nassr would mean that he would have to follow their culture or it would be a big trouble for him, all of which means even his family would be pressured into living the way they live unless they want risk, so that type of thing is a scary thing or could be at least and I understand that.

Very valid point, and having to adapt to a new culture is a big ask tbh and these guys do follow their rules to the latter and Cristiano might not want to risk his freedom.

However, we are talking about FIVE HUNDRED MILLION EUROS! that is good enough to literally do whatever you are told to do, just way too much money to reject.

His been in the business for quite a while and made his money and btw I thinking moving this side he might miss out on several sponsorship deals which might have contributed to not moving to this club... besides this 500mil isn't free money he has to put in the work.

There's no latest news whether ronaldo will get a new club or not. I meant look at how so many clubs were still rejecting him again and again. Jorge mendes as his agent was also feeling headache with his decision to leave from MU.
Mendes has been trying so hard to get a new club for him but since ronaldo was an old player and none of club interested with him. I hope that ronaldo will try to consider play for al nassr rather than he was not getting any club until the end of transfer season.
It seems like that ronaldo has been using al nassr as backup once he will not able to get a professional club until the end of january. Ronaldo was also getting so many blame from messi fan.

The customs and religious orientation of the society is very important when considering a club or country to play for. Some player become frustrated when the cannot cope with the values and beliefs of some societies. Saudi Arabia is an Islamic nation that forbids so many things that is legal in Europe and America. Most of these footballers like clubbing and other social activities that is perceived as anti-Islamic behavior.

His family might not enjoy the freedom they enjoy in other parts of the world while staying in Saudi Arabia. But he might decide to keep his family in Europe while he remains in Al-Nassr, because he can afford to fly frequently to any part of the world to visit his family anytime. I dont also think that considering his current level of performance, Ronaldo might be able to get a full and guaranteed first team football in any top flight team in Europe. He should consider moving to Al-Nassr and make more money that can enable him to own a club.

I think it is time for Arsenal to recruit some top-tier players as for the past few seasons, they have been heavily relying on medium players in my opinion.
Yes, I have to say that Granit Xhaka and Mohamed Elneny are decent players but I do not think that they are enough for Arsenal to win the league.
As a result, I think Sofyan Amrabat could be a good addition to the squad.

And if we talk about Liverpool I think they have a decent midfield but I think another addition could be great for them as squad depth is very much needed in order to do good in the league in the longer run.

Since the arrival of Antonio Conte on November 18th, Tottenham Hotspur has displayed a shocking performance this season. I think they could end up in the top four at the end of this season. But It could be difficult for the club to keep the fire burning if their key man (harry Kane) doesn't have a well-to-do backup before the remaining half of the season begins, seeing that he features in all their matches. It will be a good thing if they could confirm the signing of Zaha on a free transfer or Mac Allister, as reported by the media.

Tottenham already have Harry Kane, Richarlison and Son Heung min for forward lines so if Zaha left Crystal Palace and moved to Tottenham i don't think he will be first choice for Tottenham because Conte will more likely to playing these players as starting lineup than Zaha unless Zaha are willing to spend his time on the bench so probably he will accept Tottenham offers
And for Mac Allister because he performing well in Brighton that's why Argentina manager was decide to used him to defend Argentina and apparently Lionel Scaloni has made right decision because Mac Allister has successfully to bringing Argentina to gets world cup trophy and indeed Tottenham management was allowed Conte to bought Mac Allister from Brighton but that's won't be easy considering Tottenham have to compete with several clubs such as Inter Milan to gets him

Bayern München is looking for a new goalkeeper as Manuel Neuer is injured and is reportedly interested in Emiliano Martinez. After yesterday's magnificent performance, the number of his suitors has increased. We can say that all eyes on him.
Emiliano Martinez started playing regularly after being transferred to Aston Villa after playing for several teams on loan for years. He is 30 years old and we can say that he is currently at the peak of his career. If he's going to make a big transfer, now is the time. Considering the long contract period and the transfer fee given by Aston Villa, Bayern has to spend a serious amount of money to make such a transfer. But they were already going to spend all kinds of money to fill Neuer's place. I think this can be a very logical transfer for both parties.

I don’t think it’s about the money for Ronaldo, the most important thing to him is legacy. Ronaldo could have had a smooth transition to retirement from football if he gone to Manchester City instead he was swayed to join United. In addition to Portugal losing out of the World Cup, the year hasn’t been good for Ronaldo and knowing how competitive he is, he would want to prove to his critics that he is still the best. That’s why moving to Al-Nassr will be an impossible thing for him to do. I have heard rumors that Newcastle may be in talks with his agent for a possible transfer deal. Newcastle from last season have been picking up from a poor form to a historical form this season and in the course of their development they have recruited quite some experienced players and if Ronaldo joins will give them an extra boost going forward so I will opt for this move if it were on the table. Who knows if Newcastle could finish in top four position this season and qualify to compete in the Champions league.

Several teams are interested in signing him after yesterday's magnificent performance. In the World Cup, Emiliano Martinez was named the Best Goalkeeper. Bayern Munich might consider signing the Argentine goalkeeper during the January transfer window as a replacement for injured captain Manuel Neuer. Argentine international Emiliano Martinez from Aston Villa could be a serious option for Bayern, not only after Manuel Neuer's serious injury but also because he failed to perform well at the World Cup.

So I agree with you he could take a lot of money over the next few seasons before he decides to retire. other players rarely get this fantastic offer so I think Ronaldo will consider this offer before he gives an answer.

He is not a players just need a money, if Al-Nassr offer the amount to not ambitious players or need more money, maybe they will accept this offer. But, Ronaldo will trying to find better club to play in UCL not just a money anymore. See hor Ibrahimovic did, with lower salary, he accepted Milan offer, and he can bring a trophy for Milan. Ronaldo has a same feeling, need a trophy before he going to retired. Today I read some rumor, if maybe Ronaldo will try to talk with Madrid board, to give a chance to comeback as Madrid players. if this rumor coming true, we can see the best decision ever and maybe become a world record to reject a super expensive offer by Ronaldo.

My personal opinion is that the Saudi Arabian offer for Cristiano Ronaldo could have been a good deal for him. It seems to me that he is now approaching the age of retirement and has aged considerably. Having reached the age of almost 38, he no longer has the same pace he used to have at a time when he was younger. In addition to that, I would like to point out that his scoring abilities and positioning have also been affected.

In light of those factors, I do not believe he will be able to land a top-tier team in Europe in the near future. For instance, I think that the only options he could have are Chelsea and Bayern Munich, since both of these teams are trying to find another striker to join their squads.

I agree with you, that Cristiano Ronaldo is a player who is hungry for achievement and doesn't really prioritize money. If he is a player who only cares about money then we will see that Cristiano Ronaldo was already in the Arab League even before this season because last season he also had fantastic offers from the same team. But he chose a team that could compete in prestigious events such as the Champions League, or a very competitive league.

I don't know what I would think if in January Manchester United got Gvardiol from RB Leipzing. Of course it will be a solid wall of defense with Martinez and Varane. If this really happens, it will repeat the era of Rio Ferdinand, Nemanja Vidic and Gabriel Heinze.
His statistics are quite good as a center-back with Croatia and RB Leipzing. Likewise, from the age factor Josko Gvardiol is still 21 years old which will be his birthday on January 23, 2023. Of course it will be a long-term project for the Red Devils.

[rahmad2nd]

I think it is time for Arsenal to recruit some top-tier players as for the past few seasons, they have been heavily relying on medium players in my opinion.
Yes, I have to say that Granit Xhaka and Mohamed Elneny are decent players but I do not think that they are enough for Arsenal to win the league.
As a result, I think Sofyan Amrabat could be a good addition to the squad.

I'm sure Arsenal will recruit some newcomers in the January transfer window. Arteta already has several names on his list, for them to bring to the Emirates Stadium in the January transfer window. not only looking for a replacement for Mohamed Elneny, but Arsenal are also rumored to be bringing in several front-line players. for Sofyan Amrabat, his performance at the Qatar world cup was quite good.

however, I am not sure Arteta will be interested in him. because, Arsenal already have several names for this position, there is Danilo, he is a young potential who plays with Palmeiras and Arteta has been monitoring this player long ago. there are also other names like, Youri Tielemans who plays for Leicester City. they are predicted, as one of the replacements for Mohamed Elneny or Granit Xhaka. Another name that will be included in Arsenal's shopping list later is Mkhayko Mudryk. however, so far no official statement has been made by Arteta or Arsenal's management. however, I still hope that Arteta will continue to bring his troops to appear consistently after the league is restarted.
