⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[logfiles]

According to skysports, Chelsea appoints Lampard as an interim manager until the end of the season. So, it is clear that Lampard only manages Chelsea until this season is over. But he may be considered to continue managing Chelsea in the next season if Lampard makes Chelsea management satisfied. But I doubt that Lampard will get the chance since there are still 4 big remaining matches for Chelsea. Lampard may get losses in these matches, and Chelsea management won't consider hiring him as head coach for the next season.

The fact that they chose him as an Interim manager until the end of the season speaks volumes. Chelsea are probably seeing beyond him for the next main manager. The current problem at Chelsea I think is the lack of patience. A manager who wants to build a team with his own philosophy needs time and at Chelsea, they don't care about giving someone enough time.

Lampard is the not kind of Coach that can turn things around within the remaining months.

Congratulations to Burnley

Congratulations to Burnley and Vincent Kompany for an excellent job in the championship and he (Kompany) is coming to English Premier League for another level of challenge to his career.
The day I tried watching Kompany and Burnley was the he played against his former boss Guardiola. Honestly, I expected some wonders but I was disappointed at the end

great job and congrats to burnley on their return to the EPL.  for Vincent Kompany this is quite a touching season for his coaching career and of course bringing the team back to the EPL is an extraordinary thing that he has done. So for next season we will see Vincent face Pep which is the most beautiful encounter we will enjoy.

apart from that for sure offers will come for vincent kompany i think he should reject everything and stick to his stance to build a team to be strong next season instead of accepting offers to coach other teams.

I won't say Guardiola is not successful in champions league football because he has won the Champions league trophy but not with Manchester City and currently in the Champions league he has another chance to make history but against a very tough opponent Bayern Munich. It will be a test between Guardiola and Thomas Tuchel for who is the better coach.

Guardiola just wanna give UCL for manchester city caused by UCL never won manchester city. Pep was feeling how hard to win UCL with the current squad at this moment. The next match gonna be duel about who will be alive and dead in the UCL.
The team who will be losing the game must be back again to the domestic league. I wonder what kind of strategy that already been prepared by guardiola. will pep play the first leg as an experimental match before?
It will be very risky if pep was repeating it again as manchester city was able to be destroyed by bayern. De ligt has the main mission to prevent haaland to make the goals to the bayern's goal net.
Some interesting matches are coming together. Im also wanna watching the match between chelsea against real madrid as well. This gonna be a very interesting match to be watched.

That's why manchester city was also making an important transfer in the early the season by buying haaland from dortmund. It seems like that pep believes if haaland will become a solution for manchester city to win UCL this season. The result from the match will be determining the future of cancelo in bayern too.

Amadou Onana is a defensive player in Everton who had a good performance recently and that's why the price for this player increased recently also he is a young player and he can be a good investment for any team hiring this player even for other seasons. But I think Chelsea they won't have more chance than Arsenal for hiring this player mostly because Chslea doesn't have stability and they won't be in the champions league.

I think for both the clubs there will be lot of candidates before they consider getting Onana. There are lot of big names that both these big rivals are targetting. Of course Onana will be there but I think players like Rice, Bellingham , Estupinan, Tielemans and more are much before Onana. Whatever it will be it is sure that Chelsea will try to get what Arsenal is trying for.

There is no doubt that Amadou Onana is going to be best utilized if he is played as a CDM. It is my opinion that he will not be the best defender in the league. As a CM, he will also not be able to provide the team with too much value. It is important for whichever team tries to take him, to remember that he will be required to play as a central defender in a central midfield position. Now of course there are other options to consider other than Amadou Onana. However, if the budget is a bit tight, I think he could be a good option.

I came across this article and couldn't believe it is true about Zidane. There Zidane is quoted from an interview and he said that he won't take an offer from a Premier League club because he doesn't speak English and he doesn't intend to learn it. Firstly, I never thought that Zidane doesn't speak English, but when I thought about it it makes a little bit of sense as most time of his life he was in France, Italy and Spain. Secondly, I wouldn't have expected Zidane to not be willing to learn another language! So he would really decline when Manchester City puts 20 million on the table because of a language barrier? Generally, there are always good reasons to learn English besides taking an offer from Manchester City

Well, looks like you are a little late, but yeah, that has always been Zidane's position. I think he's looking at the France national team job or PSG. I mean if he had any desire to get to England then he would have already done it by now. So many big clubs from England would dream about having him as his European record is pretty awesome, and he has been free for a long time

I think to him, it's not all about money.

It was also said somewhere else that he gave some hints as to becoming a coach for either PSG or the French national team, but those options are pretty much gone in my opinion. Deschamps extended his contract until the World Cup 2026 and the other option, PSG, doesn't seem very likely to me. There is so much trouble going on in that club and so many uncertainties about Mbappe and Messi, that I don't think Zidane likes that very much. Another forum member and I also have said that Zidane doesn't like cubs where there is a lot of politics involved, but that is definitely what you get when you to PSG. But money might heal all wounds and Zidane could be the coach for the next season, but I guess only if Mbappe stays.

We did give Graham Potter time and look at the position it has gotten us. We trusted the process and now we won't be playing champions league football as tio 4 is now an impossible mission, we didn't win any cup competition this season and are likely to get knockout all because we trusted Graham Potter and gave him tjmi. Assuming we sacked him earlier when the signs were showing how aceragyhw was, we would had been in a better position than where we are. Chelsea isn't a patience club and that has been our strategy for years nwi and it has worked for us but the only time we decide to have patience, look at where it has left us, we aren't even in the tip 10 position.

There's rumour of another potential manager to take over from Frank Lampard; Chelsea consider return for Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti - sources

Carlo Ancelotti will be considered for a return to Chelsea for a second spell as manager at Stamford Bridge should the Real Madrid coach leave the Santiago Bernabeu at the end of the season, sources have told ESPN.
source: https://www.espn.com/soccer/chelsea-engchelsea/story/4917798/chelsea-consider-return-for-under-fire-real-madrid-boss-carlo-ancelotti-sources?platform=amp

Chelsea has been linked with so many past managers like Ancelotti, Mourinho, Conte etc but still majority of the fans like myself still would love to see Julian Nagelsmann coaching the players come next season and that's if Frank Lampard second return becomes disastrous.

PSG also seem to be interested in a move for Jude Bellingham now. Maybe it could be just a rumour as well but still this is the case now. This can make the competition to sign him quite fired up though. Because Real Madrid and Liverpool are also thinking of making an offer for him in the summer. Especially Real Madrid seem to be ahead of Liverpool now.

I wonder if PSG's entering the race would change something about Bellingham's decision. He has been eager to sign for Real Madrid so far. I think he would still go with Real Madrid.

rumors regarding Bellingham are still too vague. Liverpool are also reportedly the strongest in the race to get the player's signature. Madrid and PSG are also strong teams that can be considered, hopefully he doesn't just choose a big salary contract. he must think about the coach and the game character of the team he will defend. it is better and will make him comfortable playing with his new team.

Are you serious? Amadou Onana is still nothing for me, his performance wasn't that good, but many people are overreacts because he's tall, young and controversial. He's controversial because he tend to make fouls and get yellow cards, although he prevent the opponent player to score a goal, but I don't think keep making fouls is good. Playing in central defensive midfielder position don't need to be a young player because you're mostly making a decision than running.

Guardiola is a loser in terms of his results in the Champions League - only with the golden generation of Spain he was able to win it. After that, he failed with Bayern one of the strongest in the history (Jup Heykens) and then every year with City on an endless budget.
The fact that they got to Bayern is not surprising - the closer to the final, the higher the likelihood of such meetings and if you want the title, then you must be able to beat such teams.
Personally, I will evaluate the correctness of the decisions of the Bavarian management precisely by this result - if they beat City then OK, I will be happy and satisfied as the second money bag (first is P$G) will be knocked out of the tournament again.

I won't say Guardiola is not successful in champions league football because he has won the Champions league trophy but not with Manchester City and currently in the Champions league he has another chance to make history but against a very tough opponent in Bayern Munich. It will be a test between Guardiola and Thomas Tuchel for who is the better coach.

Two rivals from the premier league who know each other well.  I can say that it is more advantageous for Thomas Tuchel because he is a coach who knows Bayern Munich well.  Although Guardiola also has Bayern in his past, he has now become a coach that is associated with Manchester City.  Tuchel's Bayern could also take the trophy if they knock out Manchester City.

The appointment of Lampard as Chelsea interim manager is not too surprising, Lampard's relationship with Chelsea is very close and Lampard's status is still unemployed. Lampard must take advantage of the opportunities Chelsea have provided him, his performance as an interim manager could see him appointed as a permanent coach if Chelsea management are satisfied with his work.
Other top coaches have started to be linked with Chelsea, Luis Enrique, Zidane and Nagelsmann are a series of names who will become Chelsea coach candidates the following season. Lampard can put himself in the ranks of these top coaches as long as his performance exceeds the club's expectations.

The competitors for PSG to get him to look too strong for PSG. Im not calling PSG was the weak team to get him but if you are seeing from the achievements that achieved by the club real madrid is leading the competition to get him right now. Many clubs are waiting for his decision to determine which club that already been chosen by him to be his new club in the future.

I wonder if PSG's entering the race would change something about Bellingham's decision. He has been eager to sign for Real Madrid so far. I think he would still go with Real Madrid.

I don't even think PSG will able to get him. There are so many strong clubs. The most potential clubs to get him must be liverpool or real madrid. As you can see jude was liverpool fans. Real madrid has also become the best club in the world that is also interesting to sign him.
PSG was too late to attract him to join the club. I do know that if PSG is confusing to determine which player will become the next generation after messi and neymar will have gone.
Sergio ramos may also go to the arabian league too. Jude bellingham will be deciding it very soon about which club that will become his new club.

I totally agree! Guardiola is a champion, but can Man City win the Champions League? That's huge. Bayern Munich, a massive Bavarian team, is his opponent.

However, flashy cups aren't everything. Mistakes and improvement, like a team-shaped beanstalk. Man City may not win the Champions League this season, but they'll learn and realise a lot. Who knows? They may return next season stronger than a caffeinated mouse

He is not actually wrong about that. If he meant in the past or whole time and yeah pep has ever won UCL with his past club but if he means about this time and pep is a looser. This is the fact. The lost against chelsea was really hard to accept for manchester city.
If we are talking about this time he is with city and he is still a looser, so many times that pep was saying if his main target was UCL caused by this trophy is most difficult to achieve with manchester city.
If guardiola will able to make the current form of city to win UCL and that will be awesome thing. What ktc said was true. pep was able to win UCL when barcelona was in the golden era but he is so difficult to do that again after such era has gone.
Tuchel is also in the right way to win UCL for the second times.

[CryptoPanda]

Mourinho seems to have two options right now in fact. These options are a Saudia Arabia team and Chelsea as it seems.

The offer from this Saudi Arabia team seems really hard to refuse for Mourinho. But it is all about what he is planning to do anyway. Does he still have a goal to achieve in Europe? Then I think he would be closer to accepting a deal from Chelsea side. Otherwise he can just choose money to guarantee the rest of his life just as Ronaldo has done. I wouldn't judge him about his final decision if he was a fan. It is his life in the end. By the way I don't know if Chelsea are even thinking of preparing an offer for him. Because they don't seem to be rushing anything for now.

Mourinho is an experienced manager with a very good reputation in the game currently the first coach to win all three European trophies. I can't tell if he will be willing to leave Europe at this stage of his career, Saudi League has not yet earned much recognition and reputation and Mourinho is a man who loves the spotlight, I think it's hard predicting what his decision would be.

Bellingham is a young player and he can be a good option for PSG to hire this player and invest in him also he had a good performance this season and I think after he joins PSG he can help this team to have a balanced midfielder unlike their situation right, nut according to transfermarkt this player worth 120m which can be another expensive player for PSG.

Well it's not a surprise that more and more teams are joining in for Bellingham race as he has lot of potential. With PSG he can become a crucial player but with the pool of midfielders in the squad he might have less no. of opportunities initially. Therefore I don't think its wise to go into a club where there are pool of players in the same position as there is no guarantee that a player might find enough chances. It's far more better to move into a team where the club actually needs the player in that position eg. Liverpool.

Yes, I heard this rumor this morning and it's not surprising that PSG will finally enliven the hunt for Bellingham in the summer. Moreover, Real Madrid and Liverpool have made offers to Bellingham since the beginning of last year and now we will still be waiting for which club Bellingham will choose in the transfer market later. At least he's still young and I think he can further establish his future options in a fairly competitive league.

Congratulations to Burnley

Congratulations to Burnley and Vincent Kompany for an excellent job in the championship and he (Kompany) is coming to English Premier League for another level of challenge to his career.
The day I tried watching Kompany and Burnley was the he played against his former boss Guardiola. Honestly, I expected some wonders but I was disappointed at the end

Burnley blew the championship away this season,to be promoted at this stage of the season is exceptional,  they have performed so well,won their matches convincingly, and also a high scoring team. Well I won't say I feel disappointed with their performance against Manchester City because of the form city where when they met, just back from trashing liepzig in the champions league, is going to be a tough one for Burnley. I have no doubt with their style of play, they will be a big force come next season in the Premier league.

If PSG were to enter the market for Jude Belligham it would likely be a winner because PSG would certainly not hesitate to offer better than the clubs that also want him, but at PSG maybe Belligham will not get the achievements that he will be able to get at Real Madrid, so it will be a difficult choice for him, what in his youth he wants to get, a lucrative contract or a flashy achievement that he will get at Real Madrid. And Liverpool also still really want him even the rumors that he has been confirmed to Liverpool are so wildly reported in the online media.

PSG anticipated this when they failed to agree on Messi contract extension so Bellingham will be their target in the upcoming transfer market. Lionel Messi has so far not decided anything against an offer from PSG to extend his contract because Lionel Messi contract will end this season.

Apart from Bellingham, PSG are also eyeing a signature from the Napoli sticker, Osimhen even, as reported by the party, an approach has already taken place with the player's agent to smooth out their steps in the next summer transfer window.

Another news came from Lionel Messi because several big clubs will look at him when his contract ends at PSG. I think he should look for new challenges maybe the EPL is good enough for him after Laliga and Ligue 1.
