⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Sirait]

It is true that Ronaldo will not be tempted by the money offered by Al Nassr. Ronaldo will not be ambitious about money. He still wants to play in European matches, especially playing in the Champions League.
Rumors about Ronaldo being in Real Madrid training have been circulating in some media this may indicate that Real Madrid is giving him a chance, although it is not clear whether he will go there or find a new club again.

I even read the news that Cristiano is in Dubai with Milan!

The news about Cristiano Ronaldo's return to the Italian Serie A League is getting stronger after the Portugal national team captain suddenly flew to Dubai, is he really going to join AC Milan?
As is well known, currently the reigning Italian Serie A champion, AC Milan is in Dubai participating in a warm-up tournament titled Dubai Super Cup 2022, and news of Cristiano Ronaldo joining the Rossoneri have been circulating before the 2022 World Cup rolls around.

the media is currently full of speculation over Cristiano's future, apart from that it is also reported that Giroud's relationship with Milan is not good, this makes me curious about what will happen next.

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.

This situation will definitely cause troubles for Aston Villa, by troubles I mean a lot of clubs will come seeking the goal keepers availability and signature. Aston Villa is still a small team and with Emiliano's performance in the world cup I think top teams will come trying to get him for a huge amount. We know how some of this top clubs like Manchester Uniter, Manchester city, Real Madrid, PSG do their business.

[Desmong]

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.

It is true that Ronaldo will not be tempted by the money offered by Al Nassr. Ronaldo will not be ambitious about money. He still wants to play in European matches, especially playing in the Champions League.
Rumors about Ronaldo being in Real Madrid training have been circulating in some media this may indicate that Real Madrid is giving him a chance, although it is not clear whether he will go there or find a new club again.

Now that Messi had take the world cup, I think Ronaldo now will see it as a challenge for him to try more so that he can win the champions league which I don't know how he will go about it. He will be more interested in his achievements than going after money. He already has the money and now he needs to prove to the world than he can do better than what he had achieved so far.

Manchester United have brought in some players based on their performance previously and that has not worked out very well for them. To date, they have brought in Harry Maguire and Romelo Lukaku, but both have been ineffective. I think Manchester United should not just look at recent performances and throw away money to get the player. They would be wise to make wise decisions about which players to invest in.

I don't think they should spend so much money on this player. If they can bring in a player who is a free agent and can play well, it is going to be more than helpful for them. But I don't think there are many free agents who will be able to play well and have smooth coordination with the other players on the team. The same is true for players because everything worthwhile is going to cost money.

Although Man utd have bought players with huge money and they end up been flop but you can't blame it on them only and ask them to go for free agents. In football some players find it hard to live up to hype when in top clubs, some turn out to be injury prones all this happens in every club. The times I blame clubs on some transfer is when it is base on nepotism just like Man utd favouring English players or because a coach is too adamant on bringing in a particular player when they are better options available. But over rall buying young talents or even Marquee signings looks like a gamble. The best is to build your own academy players which seems hard in modern football. Clubs are eager to get results and they tend not to trust there academic graduates more or even offer them time

I don’t think going for free agents is the best idea but free agents are no bad either because some free agents played out their contract and wanted a new challenge, they are not free because they weren't good enough. I only criticize Manchester United because most of their choice signings are based on hype and that is what they go for believing that the hyped players are the best.

[aylabadia05]

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.

Apart from Manchester United, Chelsea also intends to bid on the player because of the impressive performance shown in the World Cup. Manchester United assesses that Josko Gvardiol can fill the center back or left back position, so that the Red Devils' defense will be even stronger next season. Chelsea also has ambitions to bring in Josko Gvardoil, who has successfully brought Croatia to third place in the Qatar World Cup, because it is believed that Josko Gvardoil can help the Blues' defense become stronger.

Another surprise came from the Spanish League Giants, Real Madrid was one step faster to get Josko Gvardoil, they could use Luka Modric as an initial approach to seduce the player, because the midfielder is Josko Gvardoil's mentor in The Checkered Ones squad. The market price for Josko Gvardoil is believed to be around £60m and I think Real Madrid are more likely to sign the player than Manchester United or Chelsea.

Who is fast, then he will get.

Not just for next season. If Manchester United can get him then we can be sure that he will be the first choice down the line and it is likely that Erik ten Hag will implement a new formation with 3 defenders (3-4-1-2).
Naturally, Josko Gvardiol is targeted by many big clubs because he is one of the most prominent defenders during the 2022 World Cup tournament.

I'm sure Gvardiol will be tempted by many clubs interested in him although he is rumored to be in no hurry to leave the Red Bull Arena at least because Gvardiol is still under contract with RB Leipzing until 2027 since he was brought in from Dinamo Zagreb in 2021 and RB Leipzing also plans to keep Josko Gvardiol until the end of the season based on reports from several reliable sources.

[Zackgeno96]

Gvardiol does have the teams to choose after this World Cup. His performance was certainly no coincidence. He intervened excellently in several matches and partly because of him, Belgium was unable to beat Croatia in the group stage. A club in the EPL would suit him well, he has proved to be a very strong player physically despite his age. It looked like he had been playing football at the highest level for 10 years. But we have to wait until the transfer window in the winter, then we can better assess how things stand. I just think that Chelsea or United would like to have a lot of money left for him.

[Captain Corporate]

I am not sure about defense, but the fact that Livakovic became the best goalkeeper, even if he didn't get the award he got all the stats, means that he must be on the radar of some huge clubs. This guy is playing in Dinamo Zagreb, a team that would turn crazy if they sell him for 10 million euros, and that is nothing to big clubs. Like for example Neuer is injured, a 10 million euro solution to get the best world cup goalkeeper, with a chance to replace him with Neuer even in the long run because dude is 27 years old, sure sounds like great. Thats just one example, he will definitely switch teams.

[Distraction]

It is nice to see Chelsea finally finding a solution to their scoring problem by transferring Nkunku officially. They will need to be patient until seeing him in the squad though but hopefully it will be worth it.

It has been a long time since Chelsea found just the striker they needed. Things didn't work well with Lukaku. It was one of the funniest things actually. They sold him for a price around 35m euros to Everton and they had to pay more than 100m euros to sign him back from Inter. After all that impressive effort at Inter, his performance at Chelsea was a disaster again. Now he is loaned to Inter and he will be joining them permanently later on as far as I know. This is one of the most negative transfers for the team surely. Werner also changed after leaving Leipzig and didn't meet the expectations. Chelsea really need Nkunku to give the expected performance finally.

According to the news of the Spanish newspaper Sport, Barcelona are pushing all possibilities to add N'Golo Kante, whose contract with Chelsea will expire at the end of the season. If this transfer takes place, Barcelona will strengthen its power. If Barcelona wants to buy this player, they definitely will. Because a football player like Kante wants to play in a team like Barcelona.

The champions league has eluded Manchester City for long. They have won the premier league four times in just 5 years and currently the defending champions. They have pretty much dominated the epl, they have their eyes set on the champions league trophy as well as the premier league trophy this year. The only competition they have in the EPL right now is Arsenal. Arteta will have to bring in new signings to strengthen the team for them to maintain the number 1 position in the epl. I think Arsenal have been extraordinary this season and their fans will be hoping to win the premier league or the Europa league.

UCL is a bit different, it's not the same thing and it creates a bit of a trouble for them. It's chaotic to say the least and that is why they keep failing to win all this time. They got Haaland this time around and that's why they might have a better chance to win it all this year, including premier league.

If Jesus is injured for a long time, Arteta has to get someone or he has no chance at all, it would be impossible for him to make it work without Jesus while City is chasing him. Who will they get? I have no idea, but I know that it has to be someone good because they do deserve to get a great one in order to make it work for the premier league title.

According to the news of the Spanish newspaper Sport, Barcelona are pushing all possibilities to add N'Golo Kante, whose contract with Chelsea will expire at the end of the season. If this transfer takes place, Barcelona will strengthen its power. If Barcelona wants to buy this player, they definitely will. Because a football player like Kante wants to play in a team like Barcelona.

Whilst it is good for Kante if this news is true, it is almost certain that Chelsea do not want him any longer once his current contract expires (mid next year), so to move to Barcelona won't be a bad choice at all, they (Barcelona) aren't at their best just yet, but they are resurgent and the name Barcelona will always stand out.

Having said that, on the other hand, whilst i think Kante is still a very brilliant footballer, i expected Barcelona to go for someone quite younger to replace Busquets, except they see Kante as a short term option, and prolly aren't going to pay any transfer fee for him, because i guess he would be a free agent once his contract expires pretty soon, if that be the case then it might be a good short term move for Barcelona.

[baeva]

I personally feel that Ronaldo is becoming over desirous to achieve what he had already achieved. The only trophy that would have been given Ronaldo a very hard time should be the World Cup. Although he cried very well when he was eliminated from the World Cup. Apart from the World Cup what else does he need?

The debate about the ''Greatest of all time" in soccer was one of the best things in soccer for a long time now, more than a decade. I personally appreciate Ronaldo for his efforts and his achievements over the years that cannot be ignored. He didn't win the world cup to win the argument that he is the real GOAT, but it was exciting seeing him and Messi play and be compared to one another, there will never be any duo like them in soccer. Ronaldo has nothing else to prove, he should take things easy on himself and begin to come to terms with his age and fact that he will need to retire soon from playing soccer in general.

For me Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are still GOATs, regardless of Cristiano Ronaldo's failure to win a trophy at this World Cup. Indeed, many are now saying that the debate over who GOAT is actually over after Messi managed to bring Argentina to victory in Qatar.
I think it's too naive to say that just because one of them didn't get what they didn't get, the fact is that they have been football icons even for a very long time, and until now they still exist in the world of football as professional players.
Messi and Ronaldo will always be the best in their different ways of doing it.

Well if you look at it in terms of who has won more titles, Messi is indeed better, he has won absolutely everything... But in terms of their personal play on the pitch they are really equal and both are as if they are not from this planet, it's silly to compare them. I'd rather look at the legacy, who will be left after both players leave? Judging by what Mbappe is doing on the pitch, he's the first contender.

Nkunku is now officially a Chelsea new player.

If this will not change the premier league will buy players years ahead, and yes it is already happening.


they have just too much money in comparison to other leagues.

It's not the Premier League's fault that they generate money better than anyone else, it's their achievement and pride. In fact, only teams like Real Madrid, Bayern, PSG, etc. can compete with Premier League clubs, but in fact their positions are very strong, since it is important for any player to play in the Champions League, and no matter how good the Premier League is only 4 clubs from there receive tickets to the Champions League.

Premier reopening soon and we would see teams back to actions on the table. Most teams will perform poorly while some will be in a better shape. Christopher Nkunku is one of the young outstanding player in RB Leipzig and him going to Chelsea is very presentable. The frenchman missed the world cup due to injury and he's capable of leading the attacking line for the blues. He's experience, although he's still young but can position infront of goal. He got the spirit, it's just a matter of time he fitin the blues pattern of the game.

If this transfer takes place, Barcelona will strengthen its power. If Barcelona wants to buy this player, they definitely will. Because a football player like Kante wants to play in a team like Barcelona.

Barcelona bringing N'Golo Kante to the team is going to be a good deal since Chelsea is not willing to offer him a new contract when his contract expires with them and I think Kante will likely accept the offer because currently, he has been unavailable in the pitch for a long time due to injuries so Barcelona bringing him in the team at his age will be a dream come true for him and FC Barcelona will also have an edge against their opponents because Kante is a strong player that can help to strengthen and solidify the Xavi's formation.

In addition, Kante is yet to make his intention known so the news will count as a rumor for now until the deal is done but Barcelona will have no issues in bringing the French man to the team because right now Barcelona in doing well in the Spanish Laliga and as a player like Kante who's effort has helped the blues in so many ways expanding his experience with the Spanish gaint will be his greatest desire.

Well Nkunku is a good option, because Aubameyang is a very good player and he needs help, I see that Chelsea is a team that is getting very in tune with everything, Poter is undoubtedly a very good manager, some criticize him a lot, but I think Nkunku is the perfect choice, now we have to wait, I don't know if now they only have Nkunku in view, as I see it I think there may be other player options, when Aubameyang played for Barcelona he did so excellent, for me it was a mistake that he left, this is something that I don't know how Xavi thought of releasing it, but hey, everyone decides how their team will go.

Yes, Aubameyang is a good striker, he already proved it in Dortmund, in Arsenal, and in Barcelona.
Although he played for a short time in Barcelona, he can show us that he is a skilled and talented striker. He scored some goals in important matches and become a player who contributed very well. When he was in Arsenal, he becomes the club top scorer, too. No doubt that he is a great striker. Now, he only needs more time to show his contribution in Chelsea, he also needs another striker who can help him to optimize his potential. Sure, Nkunku seems fit with Aubameyang and Chelsea squad.

About Aubameyang leaving Barcelona, I don't think it is a mistake made by Xavi. Xavi knows that they have Lewandowski, it is not necessary to have Aubameyang too. Aubameyang must be unhappy sitting on the bench, he needs time to play regularly. So, to minimize the conflict, Barcelona prefers to sell Aubamayang.

Chelsea reportedly gave a very large value to buy Aubameyang and I think it was a stupid thing for Chelsea to do, Aubameyang has been on the bench for too long, that's the reason I doubt his potential in the future, especially since Chelsea is currently catching up other clubs in the EPL

the transfer market in January will be very busy and Aubameyang's transfer will be one of the most expensive later

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.

Yes, Tottenham have improved since Antonio Conte came in, a lot has changed, they have made quite a number of new signings who have improved their game and playing style. with the level at which they are performing I think they will make a good position at the end of the season by finishing within the top four zone. Antonio Conte seems to know what he is doing and have everything planned out and with the backing of the board the plan will be executed.

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.

After I watched is performance yesterday in match against france it as if I know big clubs will come after him to sign him in. If Bayern Munich succeed in signing him, it will be good for the club and it will lead to more achievement for Bayern Munich expecially in the Champions league.

[Pokapoka124]

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.

Nkunku will likely be an upgrade to Chelsea's attack when he finally joins and with the right strategies and right position he will be able to reach his full potential at Chelsea when he joins. I see how much of a plan Graham Potter and the new club owner have for the club and with time things will get a lot better than they are now. I think Graham Potter should be given more time to put this plan in place to achieve good results.
