⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[asriloni]

The speculations of Messi's return to Barcelona are now hitting up and it seems likely that a move can happen in the summer as Barcelona President has mentioned that the club is talking to Messi's camp and discussions taking place already. I think Barcelona is also putting in place measures to satisfy every financial fair play rules if Messi is to join eventually.

Xavi is still trying to hold himself. There are some things that must be done before barcelona will able to bring back messi to its old club again. I meant FFP is still become the main problem for barcelona right now. Messi shall wait until barcelona will able to sell some players like ansu fati which is useless for the club. The messi's transfer can't happen instantly caused by barcelona is not having a good financial condition at this moment. Barcelona has responsibility to fix its financial first.

Just because barcelona's president already contacted messi and it didn't mean if messi can come back easily to barcelona.

Barcelona’s vice-president Rafael Yuste has said the club have been in contact with Lionel Messi about a possible return.

Well, it's no longer surprising because with Messi return, will Barcelona fans accept it? Considering that he left at that time when Barcelona was in a bad condition but now that everything is starting to get better Messi has come again. In the end, he will return to the house where his name was made big. Staying at PSG will not make Messi comfortable forever, because the demands made cannot be fulfilled, especially getting PSG to reach the top of the Champions League.

hey , u talking like you blame messi for his departure , it should be noted, messi never thought of leaving barcelona, barcelona the problem, even he begging for staying and crying, but on that time LaLiga's financial regulations so strict, even with a 50% wage cut, Messi's contract could not be registered with the league, that why he must leaving.

Xavi is about to lose his young player Gavi and there is the chance for another player to have the same situation or they even have to decrease their salaries because of the situation they have in Barcelona they cannot pay the salaries to some players, and their Messi can be a life saver however Messi will surely ask for high salary depending in his quality which can be challenging for Barcelona to hire this player.

yes, it's not Messi's fault. he's been trying to stay but the reality is it's difficult for Messi. and the current moment seems right for Barcelona to bring Messi home.
with the current composition of the players, plus Messi and also precise tactics from Xavi. Barcelona will return to their former glory. and it's ready to prove itself in next season's Champions League. I'm sure the fans won't mind Messi's arrival. PSG fans are too bad for Messi.

Chelsea are hoping for an opportunity to sign Victor Osimhen this summer but I don't think it will be more than a dream for them. Because they don't have anything decent they can offer the player to choose them over the other teams. They won't even be a part of the Champions League next season most probably. Why would Osimhen like to play for them anyway?

Even if Chelsea become the only team to make an offer he would still choose to stay I think. Because Napoli are in a much better situation than Chelsea now.

Napoli has been a place where Osimen has been considered key this season. I completely disagree with any club's offers regarding Osimen. However, Napoli will try to keep this player. He contributed greatly to Napoli's achievements and became the only luckiest player at Napoli.

Apart from all that, I'm not sure when Osimen is at a club like Chelsea where the level of competition doesn't even improve Osimen reputation but instead can be drowned by other players where in the Premier League every day each player makes himself stand out.

What is it about Osimhen that makes everyone so mad? A monster when he takes the field! Because of his prowess, swiftness, and lethal instinct, defenses may crumble at his approach.

Keep in mind that he serves as Napoli's lucky charm. Even in his slumber, he was able to score goals. Is he making progress toward his objectives? They must be completely insane.

And the price tag is irrelevant. It's relevant to the game itself. Keeping Osimhen is a top priority for Napoli, and they will stop at nothing to do so. Any interested club must be willing to meet his asking price. That's just the way it is

Barcelona fans really feel quite sad about losing Messi and even Messi has tried to extend his contract but in the last seconds Barcelona actually let Messi go due to financial problems, I think Barcelona fans understand why Messi left and they don't blame Messi at all because there really is a problem with barcelona, ​​even if later messi returns to barcelona as another team player (against barcelona) but I am pretty sure that barcelona fans will still welcome him well, even though now messi is no longer playing for barcelona but because messi is still a legend who is able to give glory to barcelona previously.

McTominay seems to be another target for Newcastle as it is said that Eddie Howe wants him the most now. However Newcastle should still focus on bringing some top players to the team as well.

Of course the only way to be able to do that is to finish the season in the English Premier League in top four. As long as they secure a Champions League ticket they should be good to go. Because big players always demand more than the others. Newcastle need to have something in their hands they can offer such players. They had better do their best in the remaining time of the season.

snip

Despite showing some shocking performance in the Euros qualifiers match for Scotland, I think McTominay is still and will still be a second option for Manchester United, Casemiro will still be picked first ahead of McTominay for his consistency and reliability in games for Manchester United expected in times like this when he is facing a ban or out injured then McTominay could step in as a replacement

Right now have bigger expected for Barcelona fans after rumor Lionel Messi will return back and not reach agreement extended contract with PSG, last several season Lionel Messi leave Barcelona as free agent player after not reach agreement extended contract due salary payment but seems next window transfer if still not extended with PSG I think has fewest chance will back to Barcelona.

Financial crisis and huge salary from Lionel Messi will difficult for Barcelona how to signing back Lionel Messi, many team will give fantastic offering and salary for Lionel Messi if not agree for extended contract with PSG, however become free agent player in the next window transfer have easy for any team want to sign Messi.

The latest news about a contract extension has come from the English Premier League. Luke Shaw, who is a full back from Manchester United, has agreed to a 4-year contract extension. Surely this is good news for Red Devils supporters, because Luke Shaw's role is so important for Manchester United this season and sometimes he can also fill the position as a center back if Martinez or Varane are absent. Erik ten hag is also pleased with the presence of Luke Shaw in his main squad this season and for Luke Shaw the contract extension proves that his love for the Old Trafford public is extraordinary.

That is a good decision he deserves to stay till next season
They should be well focused on winning the Premier League next season that is for sure
Congratulations to him, the coach has him as part of his plans. He is a good player this season

Manchester United definitely have considerations for the left-back's long-term contract, meaning he deserves to be in the squad to help Manchester United. And indeed Luke Shaw has played well so far and has helped a lot for Manchester United's development this season. This is a worthy decision for Manchester United to take with the potential of this player. I want to see how Manchester United will move in the transfer market this summer.

hey , u talking like you blame messi for his departure , it should be noted, messi never thought of leaving barcelona, barcelona the problem, even he begging for staying and crying, but on that time LaLiga's financial regulations so strict, even with a 50% wage cut, Messi's contract could not be registered with the league, that why he must leaving.

Barcelona's messy financial condition at that time forced them to sell Messi to Paris Saint Germain. And it must be a tough decision for them, because indeed Messi is a very important player in the squad, even when he left slightly affecting the game from Barcelona itself. And now Barcelona sounds like they want him back, especially Xavi who seems to need his role to play the strategy he implemented. Messi will not mind returning, because Barcelona is like home for him.

He made the correct decision to stay back in his team. He his valued and respected there, and he might not get that if he joins another team. He's a crucial player who Manchester United desperately needs right now. His position as Manchester United's full back has brought the team more success; finding a replacement for him will be difficult. However, with this contract extension, Eric Ten Hag will be at ease knowing that he will not have to scout for a replacement or groom another player to fit into that position.

Xavi is about to lose his young player Gavi and there is the chance for another player to have the same situation or they even have to decrease their salaries because of the situation they have in Barcelona they cannot pay the salaries to some players, and their Messi can be a life saver however Messi will surely ask for high salary depending in his quality which can be challenging for Barcelona to hire this player.

I don't understand how anyone can still think, that there is even a minimal chance, that Lionel will come back to FC Barcelona. The only reason why he left Barca 2 years ago was the fact that Barca already was in big financial trouble back then and they simply could not afford to play the extremely high salary for him. He probably could have stayed at Barca back then if he would have been happy with a lower salary but he did not want to do that.
Now the financial situation of Barca is not better, maybe even worse than two years ago and i doubt that Messi will play for a salary that FC Barcelona could afford to pay. I think it should have the highest priority for Barca now to get rid of their huge debts even if it means that they have to sell a few good players.

[tygeade]

obviously,  Victor Osimhen really needs to join a suitable club that will help him maintain and continue being among the top ranking strikers we have in the European football, and basically where he would find such opportunity is definitely finding himself in the English premier league and in a team such as Arsenal or Manchester united team,where he would have more percentage chances of becoming the number one striker in the club.

I think PSG is interested in him a lot more than any other team. They are offering Icardi and Parades and some good amount of money for him. This would allow Napoli to not only have money which they would be happy to have but also they would have good enough players to replace Osimhen a bit as well.

Maybe Icardi is not as good as Osimhen but he is not a bad player neither and definitely deserves a look. If Napoli decides to sell, that is the type of offer they can't pass up. Real can't offer the same thing, if it is about the money, PSG can match whatever Real can afford considering how rich PSG is, and considering how they are also offering Icardi, unless Real offers Benzema, they have no better offer.

Despite showing some shocking performance in the Euros qualifiers match for Scotland, I think McTominay is still and will still be a second option for Manchester United, Casemiro will still be picked first ahead of McTominay for his consistency and reliability in games for Manchester United expected in times like this when he is facing a ban or out injured then McTominay could step in as a replacement

Scott McTominay scored a couple of times during the international break for Scotland, he is a very important player for the Scottish national team, but definitely not for Manchester United, Casemiro has made the defensive midfield role his own since joining Manchester United and thus far no one has the quality of displacing him in the team, definitely not Scott McTominay. Manchester United have been a completely different team since they signed Casemiro, he brough his elite, winning mentality from Real Madrid, and it has also influenced the other players, i think he is their most important signing this season.

I think Barcelona is also putting in place measures to satisfy every financial fair play rules if Messi is to join eventually.

The Barcelona camp actually believe they can pull this off. It will be a good deal for them if they get Messi back but its going to be a very difficult one. The good news is, Messi actually wants to go back and he's ready to make all the sacrifices for that to happen. I read at article that said Messi is ready to adjust to the financial constraints of the club.
Signing Messi would be good for Barca but only in the short run. Right now they've made quality progress in trying to rebuild their team without Messi and learn to play without relying on a single player, if Mess comes back I think they'll be taking a step backward after taking two steps forward. Don't get me wrong, Messi is an exceptional player and nobody can do what he does on the pitch even at his age but bring him back will halt their progress because the team will now be dependent on him ones again. And since he'll always deliver, it won't be felt in the short run but in the long run they'll feel it.
To avoid that, Barca need to also pay attention on other part of their squad that need strengthen.

Ronaldo in the last era of his career thought about going back to Manchester United where he feels is his home, but it actually didn't work for him so he decided to change direction. This days, players decide to end their career in a well paying club. They desire making a lot of money in the last season of their career than going for achievement. Lionel Messi return to Barca would have been an exciting thing, but I'm trying to  fathome what will be the brain behind his return. But I'm sure it will not be to win more trophy or end more personal honour, it will only be  as a way of paying last honour to FCB, and such will not amount to paying him much like u said.

I'm sure Barcelona fans will accept it. because after all, he is a Barcelona legend. it's just that, so far the rumors regarding Messi are still very confusing. several other rumors reported that PSG's management had made a second offer regarding his contract which had been canceled previously.
On the other hand, the Arab club, Al Hilal, reportedly offered a salary that exceeded that received by Ronaldo with Al Nassr. So, there are many rumors about Messi which are linked by many clubs, and not to mention the clubs from the American League. but the issue that is currently developing is related to his return to Barcelona.

Even rumors, Barcelona are reported to have held talks with the party from Messi. Despite all that, I'd be happy if Messi left PSG.  but I doubt that rumors of Messi's return to Camp Nou can materialize. because, several colleagues from the Argentine national team said that Messi would stay with PSG before he left for David Backham's club. however, because currently Messi is still under contract with PSG. at least we just enjoy the moments when he plays his matches with his team until he reaches the Ligue 1 Trophy.

I have heard that Bayern Munich are interested in Kai Havertz as a summer transfer target. Tuchel must be wishing to reunite with him and maybe Havertz would also lean towards a potential deal. Because Chelsea's condition this season is very bad. They are even likely to lose some of their good players because of this bad season in my opinion. Because they aren't going to be a part of the Champions League most probably.

However I don't know if Havertz is the right striker transfer for Bayern Munich unless they are planning to part ways with Choupo-Moting. I would expect them to sign a top striker instead first.

As reported by Transfermarkt, Karim Benzema is now starting to be eyed by one of the Saudi Arabian league teams Al-Ittihad. As we know, the Middle East League is incessantly hunting for European players who are now about to retire and if Karim Benzema accepts an offer from Al-Ittihad, of course he will receive a fantastic salary like Cristiano Ronaldo, who has now joined Al -Nassr. Karim Benzema's contract with Real Madrid will also expire in June this summer and if Real Madrid does not immediately offer a contract extension then the opportunity for Benzema to join the Middle Eastern club will be very wide open. Do you think Real Madrid will let Karim Benzema go this summer?

This is the first time I've seen it although I'm not too surprised by the offers for Benzema.
But on the other hand I still feel that Madrid will still retain this player at least for next season even though the offer is still quite large for a player of Benzema's age. Although in this case it would be quite interesting if Benzema went to Al-Ittihad because of course he would be a rival for his best friend Ronaldo who plays at Al-Nassr.

Luke Shaw is one of the Manchester United players who has developed under Erik Ten Hak, if you pay attention to the quality of his playing this season it is very different from the previous season, where in almost every game he has always been a starter and continues to be Erik Ten Hak's mainstay. There are several other players who also automatically get contract extensions apart from Luke Shaw who has been announced by Manchester United.

Luke Shaw has also proven his loyalty to Manchester United with the performances he has given this season, so there is no reason for Management not to give him a new contract, this was a great start for his career and future for the next four years.

[ILuckyGuyI]

I won't be surprised if Benzema chooses to leave Real Madrid in the summer. I know that he made a statement like he would like to finish his career at Real Madrid but we still never know what the future can bring us.

I don't know how long Real Madrid are planning to continue with him above all else. Maybe they don't have plans to sell him yet. But Benzema doesn't need to stay until the end of his career in fact. Because he must have already achieved all of his goals with this team. He had an unforgettable season last year as you know. He has collected the most reputable prize for himself also. Maybe it might be the time for him to make some changes in his life. This can really happen especially if Real Madrid find a good alternative to him meanwhile.
