⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[naira]

On Tuchel, great manager, ridiculous Chelsea sacked him. I’m not surprised he has ended up with Bayern. I have no idea why they sacked Nagelsmann though, he has done nothing wrong. They are doing really well in the CL, they are on of the favourites to win it. They are literally 1 point behind Dortmund in the Bundesliga and. Make Bayern favourites to overtake them and be German champions.

Sacking Nagelsmann does not make sporting sense, it must be either for personal reasons, maybe he has ill family or something. Other than that, he must have had big disagreements with the owners. 

You are right, this is also my question so far regarding Bayern's dismissal of Nagelsmann. With the results of the Bayern Munich team's performance both in the Bundesliga and bringing their squad to the Champions League, I don't think it's ideal if Nagelsmann is sacked for no apparent reason. Although in the end Tuchel was elected and was not a problem for the Bayern squad. Tuchel still fits in at any club and could even deliver a win. However, the media has not fully provided a definite reason for Nagelsmann's dismissal.

Ok now Bayern Munich will be held by Thomas Tuchel? this will only create greater aggressiveness. And prove that Chelsea was wrong to fire him. Thomas Tuchel is a coach characterized by strict discipline but he always manages to create an ideal team. Nagelsmann was actually quite good during Bayern Munich, but if the other option is Thomas Tuchel, everyone will agree that this is what Man City needs to watch out for with the strategy and initial performance later.

Now it is already officially confirmed by the club, that Julian Nagelsmann is no longer the coach of Bayern Munich and that Thomas Tuchel will be the new coach. I have to say, that i am pretty surprised that they have fired Nagelsmann so soon, because they have paid a transfer fee for him, but i also have to say that i think that Thomas Tuchel is still a better coach than Nagelsmann and therefore i was a good move by Bayern. Tuchel basically had great success at every club that he was. At Paris Saint Germain he maybe did not achieve the biggest goal, but he brought the club into the final of the Champions League which no other coach has managed to do so far.

Totally agree with you, but I have an outrage. Nagelsmann will be on the payroll at least until he finds a job, and if he doesn't find a club, he will be on the payroll until 2026. It even makes me laugh, he can not work for another three years and still earn, where has that ever happened?  He's too lucky.

I will never blame Conte if he is sacked already
Tottenham as a club are not ready for bigger success they frustrated managers before him this is not me
They have to spend big on better players if a new coach is to take the job else they will have no trophy in the next ten years.

It's not conte's fault. Conte has been trying so hard to push totenham to win at least a single good trophy but since the club didn't have good mentalities and i guess that conte could only hope that if totenham got at least a pleasant spot for the upcoming season.
Conte was just trying to realize with the fact that is still happening with the club. I meant if we are aware of how conte's so mad due to the players who didn't have a good mentality to win a trophy right now.

I remember with what o'hara said about spurs.

Former Tottenham midfielder Jamie O'Hara has unleased on the club, declaring the squad is full of "average" players who "look like a bunch of spoiled kids".

That's what conte thinks about its club. Almost all of totenham's players were just pretty much the same like bunch of kids. That's why conte was even attacking totenham.

I believe in a marketplace, money can do everything. It is not going to be impossible for Manchester City to let Haaland go if the money is really good. But I wonder if Real Madrid is going to offer that much money if they actually get Mbappé for something less than what they will need to offer for Haaland. He's in good form. And that is the only reason he might not want to make any changes right now. But who does not want to play for Real Madrid?

Quality over money, if Real Madrid wants to go after a player for the potential the player possesses, they should not put money first, otherwise they will lose the player and miss out on filling the void the player will cover that season. Whether it's Haaland or Mbappe, I believe any of them can fit in, but they should prioritize the player who truly wants to build a more prosperous career with Real Madrid over the one who needs convincing to join the team.

Mourinho has a contract lasting until the summer of 2024 with Roma now. Next season seems to be his last season with the team for now. However this depends on Roma to take some action about this of course. Maybe they are waiting for the end of the season to start the contract talks or just to wait longer to see more of what he can do with the team.

Mourinho had some intention to go back to Chelsea as well if I'm not wrong. You know Potter is likely to get sacked in the summer. Who knows maybe Mourinho could really be one of the strong candidates for the job then.

[Docnaster]

Manchester City are not going to just let Haaland go in the summer because he is in top form. Look at the top scorer and make good history with Manchester City. I just want Haaland to be kept in his team now.
Real Madrid will definitely continue to pursue him until they get to replace Benzema later. With several other player options, there is a possibility that Real Madrid will not choose Haaland, if Mancity does not let him go.
As you said, this is just a maze, the media always raises this news.

Haaland just arrived at City so not a chances is what I would say. Even if Madrid are gonna offer more than 150 m , they are gonna deny it as they have enough money. Also player is gonna deny as well as he has got a great squad and great coach and is in a very competitive league so I think he is gonna stay. Player interested for the move might have changed things but at City Haaland is very happy. He is breaking records with the best club and in the best league. What else does he needs?

And that is the only reason he might not want to make any changes right now. But who does not want to play for Real Madrid?

When it comes European big spenders over the last decade, Manchester City should be in the top four clubs and that's is why I don't think it'll be possible to price away their biggest asset at the moment and also their biggest threat to other European clubs.

Erling Haaland is without doubt the best No. 9 at the moment and he is flourishing in the sky blue jersey of Manchester City. Real Madrid for a fact knows how to spend big but the I don't think the can be able to make Haaland their player in the summer. Pep Guardiola already has a father and son relationship with Haaland which is another big factor why he won't be living the Etihad anytime soon

[el kaka22]

Tuchel will most probably get that job. First he was great with Dortmund, and then he was great with Chelsea and got the UCL with them even when they weren't that great. Now that if he comes to Bayern which everyone expects them to make a deal, then I guess he could be good enough to get them the title. I am not saying that will be this year considering he will be joining so late.

But, next season and specially after making some changes in the roster based on what he thinks he needs for his system to work, I think he can get them back to dominating everything. This league issue is a big one, they are too used to winning it and even though we all want to see someone else win it, it's not good for the team. So they needed this change without a doubt.

Real Madrid is always desperate to have every productive talented star that they see. The way I'm seeing it I'm not sure Manchester city will let haaland go.
Quadiola didn't just brought haaland for personal achievement, he wanted him to help the club win the UEFA champion league and if that isn't possible this season,  by next season he will still give a try. I don't know the amount that Madrid has to offer, but I know Haaland is not leaving Manchester city, not anytime soon.

[flipme]

Maybe it is too early to talk about it but I'm just doing it as I saw it on the news. Real Madrid might be preparing for a huge move for Haaland in 2024 already. It is said that there is a release clause of 240 million euros which can be activated by 2024. As Real Madrid are a very rich team I don't doubt them about paying this amount of money for an amazing player like Haaland.

They don't splurge on a player that easy these days. But Haaland is a completely different case really. He is a pure goal machine and I can't imagine how much stronger Real Madrid would be with him.

I think Pep might want to get rid of Haaland because he doesn't quite fit into his game system. If Gabriel Jesus had stayed at Manchester City he wouldn't have scored as much as Haaland but Pep could have run their game system more perfectly and they could have been in a better position in the league. I think Haaland is a dilemma for Pep. If Haaland is sold for a high transfer fee, I think at first he'll pretend to be a little upset about it, but then he'll secretly be happy about it.

At Paris Saint Germain he maybe did not achieve the biggest goal, but he brought the club into the final of the Champions League which no other coach has managed to do so far.

Bayern Munich has made a good decision to hire Thomas Tuchel and fired Nagelsmann. I understand that Bayern Munich fired Nagelsmann because he can't make Bayern players to perform well in Bundesliga. In the last match, they were defeated by Leverkusen and failed to maintain their position in 1st place. Now, they are in 2nd place, Dortmund overtakes the 1st place. I think this is the biggest reason to fire Nagelsmann so soon. Bayern Munich management won't see a bad result in the next big match against Dortmund (Bayern vs Dortmund on matchday 26). Also, they will have a big match on UCL, too. They signed Tuchel because Tuchel has a good experience in both competitions.

[Docnaster]

In the next transfer window, Africans will future more.im really impressed in the performance in this qualification competition. The likes of koulou, Tapsoba,  Shalulile, Marmosh, etc are players who's name has already been booked for league movement due to their commitment and effort in this qualification matches.
If only that Nigerians players have already gotten place in international clubs I will say many of them have been booked. Black players are powerful its the reason England clubs have strong affinity them. We expecting their arrival in england

PSG are seeing Rafael Leao move as an alternative to Messi. You know that there is a possibility that Messi could decide to leave the team. He isn't intending to extend his contract soon as it seems. Most probably we would see him being free agent and thinking about his future for some time. He would wait an offer by Barcelona to make a return as well.

Leao would be a really strong move for PSG honestly. He doesn't have the same playing style with Messi of course. But still Leao would keep the team very strong considering his performance so far.

[tiCeR]

Nagelsmann was just sacked at Bayern Munich and Thomas Tuchel is on his way is the rumor. Wow I must say this is definitely a huge surprise... I mean he has perfect stats in the Champions League with 8 games and 8 wins. Eliminated PSG and is in the quarter finals of the DFB Pokal with huge chances to get into the semis.

Frankly this must hurt Nagelsmann as they take away the chance from him to win the Champions League title. It's shocking... Now Tuchel can win all three titles without having played even a third of the season. That is quite unfair.

I saw this on the news and I was really surprised for the sacked of Bayern Munich coach. No doubt Thomas Tuchel is a very good coach but the question to be asked is this the right time for the coach to be sacked?. Bayern Munich are still doing well in their performance,  I got to know that the reason for the sacked of nagelsmann was because of the game Bayern Munich lose to Bayer Leverkusen.

 Sacking a coach middle of the season is risky and if maybe the players are not fast in getting use to the strategy of Tuchel quick it can change the performance of the team in the Champions League game. This action would have been more preferable in the beginning of the season , this can be distraction that can affect the team. In a case like this timing is important and considering how far the team has gone.

After all it is difficult to tell or even make some educated guesses as to why this all happened. Even if there was an argument and they agreed to not further talk about it, that could also happen. Although Nagelsmann said he didn't know anything and it went live on the news before he was informed. Nobody here can confirm that, but the whole story is tough anyway. I am a big soccer fan and have seen many coaches being sacked of course, but this is one that leaves me puzzled. This is not even comparable to Chelsea or other clubs where we would expect everyday that the coach has to leave. There are several clubs where I thought it is game over for the coach, but not for Nagelsmann.

Messi could still contribute a huge impact at psg ... if he wants he could choose to stay ... unfortunately messi has not decide yet or speak publicly about his future .. he could simply announce that he is happy at psg and willing to continue to work on the psg proggress reaching and lifing the CL trophy.

As per fabrizio romano , it's a 50:50 chance that messi going to consider to return to barcelona or staying due the nice offer from the board.

So there is a big possibilty that Messi would leave PSG but the questions is where would he go. Leao would be a good addition to the team but still more players are needed

They cannot replace Messi with any other player. If the Leao move is made, it doesn't mean that Messi will go. I haven't heard anything about Messi going. I would love to see him again in Barcelona. I don't think he will go to the USA. He should continue to play in Europe.
PSG should strengthen their midfield instead of transferring a striker. The biggest shortcomings are there. The offensive players are the best, but there are no midfielders to make the defense > attack connection.

i am not too sure real madrid will focus on a spectacular signing in next season i mean they will probably forget about haaland or mbappe and most likely their diversion will be on Osimhen as their target in next summer window.

even for bellingham it is likely that real madrid can get him to sign for next season. bellingham has long been associated with real madrid it seems this will be their main focus going forward. real madrid needs a bigger transition for next season starting from the front line or midfield.

Barcelona has become the possible club for him again soon. Messi has been linked with barcelona so many times. Messi even cared about how much he will be paid by barcelona. He was thinking about where is the right place to continue his career when he became even older but it seems like he will be re join again in Barcelona. Bacelona can also be considered as the strongest candidate to bring back him again but the problem is if barcelona didn't have money for that.
That's why barcelona must also try to sell some players before barcelona is able to bring them back again to the club. it seems like that messi is not having a lot of options about where to go. These days so many major clubs are preferring wasted their money on young talented players rather than buy the old players that have only a few years remaining to play before the player can take the decision to retire as a professional footballer.

Messi will not extend his contract with PSG unless he fails to find a better team to play with it or Saudis refused to pay a big salary more than CR7 one.
Another reason is the legal issues of Barcelona currently, they risk to get a ban from UEFA competitions next season if the team found guilty. Additionally, a potential fine might leave Barcelona budget short and they will not be able to sign new players.

More rumors about Conte out.

The (now) ex coach of Bayern is the most wanted coach for Spurs.
