⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[doomloop]

I don't think the salary has anything to do with this Messi saga. I believe Messi wants to be assured of the project of the club before he agrees to remain there. He wants a better squad and better management. If they can promise that they will do that then I believe he will sign with PSG.
He is also accessing the same thing with Barcelona. He is waiting to see if it will be possible to join Barcelona and if they can guarantee that they have a good project and he believes in the project they're building. It's what players do when they have offers from various clubs. Some might just follow the money but most often what they do is go for the club they feel has the best project for them.

Messi is willing to go to Barcelona and receive very little compared to what he's earning at PSG, but it doesn't mean he would make the same sacrifice for PSG because PSG is not in a financial crisis like Barcelona and secondly, because he doesn't owe PSG any loyalty.

Right now, situation is not clear about Messi and for all better view about this we have to wait until end of this season with most chances he will not go to Barcelona because of their financial situation which is not good, and they have to release too many players which high salary which can create more problems for them so things looking not easy for the both parties with this all we have just PSG option for the Messi but before extended contract he needs to work on few things which will give better shape to this club right now coach and few players are creating problems which is never been ideal to win big trophies and Messi love to win trophies and now if PSG want to have Messi in their team for more time then surely they need to give better shape to their squad and also having few changes in their polices as well.

According to some news Chelsea are wishing to keep Joao Felix for a longer time after his loan ends there. He hasn't been able to show his skills very much so far though. But I don't want to put the blame on him anyway. Because Chelsea are playing poorly as a team now. This season is already wasted for them and the players don't make a huge effort from now on in the Premier League.

But Felix is still a quality player so I understand Chelsea about keeping him. But as far as I know Nkunku will also be a part of this team in this summer. There would be quite a competition between these players if Chelsea sign Felix as well. I don't even know whether Atletico Madrid have plans for Felix. They have Depay now though so maybe they would lean towards selling Felix for a reasonable price.

There are so many things that hinder Messi from extending his contract with PSG, one of which is that PSG fans demand too much from Messi. After PSG failed in the Champions League, Messi became the first party to be attacked by the fans. Another factor may be that because Argentina dramatically beat France in the world cup final, Messi was also banned from bringing the world cup trophy to PSG headquarters on the grounds of protecting the feelings of their fans.

Messi farewell to PSG was inevitable, he started to feel uncomfortable being there because the PSG fans didn't appreciate him. Barcelona are at the forefront of welcoming Messi arrival, Xavi will try to urge the club to immediately process Messi arrival to strengthen his squad for next season.

This all is correct and after having things like these I am personally feeling Messi deserve to leave this club and having new distinction for himself because PSG fans are really hurt after losing World Cup final against Argentina and Messi role for win of Argentina was vital, so this is never been easy for any team to have things like these and recently after PSG exit from Champions League fans are doing more than he deserves because alone he is not guilty in this all with this is 11 players game and all needs to be done for the win of team, but sadly defence were not working as they also need to be done against Bayern Munich.

Now Messi going to Barcelona or any other club is never been easy because we also have too many problems at Barcelona as well even now they are leading for the title win and have 100% chance for the win, but their financial situation is not allowing them for having Messi back in their team.

Well, in the current conditions, even though the previous debut match was not too memorable for Joao, but indeed this could be one of the conditions that was actually quite right for him to be at Chelsea.
But when talking about the future, I haven't found anything related to this. The last thing I know is when Koke, as captain and friend of Joao, asked him to go home and not be at Chelsea, but I haven't looked further into this news.

After the big purchase made by Chelsea last season, Todd Boehly brought big problems because in the near future, Chelsea will experience a financial crisis. This forced Chelsea to release players who have high prices. This rumor also shows the poor performance of Chelsea in the Premier League. Todd Boehly has spent a lot of money while not having as big of an impact as he could have hoped. It's no wonder that in the summer several players will be on the sale list released by Chelsea. Not only Ziyech, but Mason Mount name will also be on the list.

Maybe they have a good plan to balance their financial books, they have many players at the moment who are surplus to requirement and Chelsea will definitely be planning an overhaul in the summer to reduce the wage burden and cash in on some players. Boehly spent a lot on the team and will be so disappointed with the result this season. They would have to set their aims on the coming season because this season is already gone.

There are several clauses coming from the MLS and the Arab league for this player but indeed he flatly refused and chose to stay in Madrid. I think this can also be a good decision even though in the end it is most likely for a one-season short-term contract but of course he can still contribute in the next season, especially since Madrid still really need this player.

Benzema is unlikely to move to MLS or Saudi Pro League in the near future. He still can play quite well, he should have good motivation to stay in the top league in Europa. Although he wants to leave Real Madrid, I am sure he will move to a big team, too. He may move to another league, may be in EPL or Serie A. I guess he will move to Serie A if he wants to leave Real Madrid. He seems very appropriate to be AC Milan striker or Inter Milan striker.

Benzema has no plan since he is still having one more season with real madrid. It's always too early to say to predict the future of benzema while we know if benzema is still staying even longer in real madrid. There will be a bunch of news related to him if he will be deciding to take a step to leave real madrid. Basically, since benzema already confirmed to extend his contract in real madrid for another season and talking about his future is pointless right now.

There are some players of real madrid that are still having so many uncertainties like tchouemani and many more.

The future of Karim Benzema, one of the many loose ends that Real Madrid has this season, seems to be coming to a close. According to the French newspaper L’Equipe, the former Lyon striker has already agreed with Los Blancos to renew his contract for one more season.

His current deal is set to expire in June of this year but, with this renewal, he will add another year onto the contract, thus reaching 15 seasons with the club.

More competition will triggered in the blues squad when some signed players will arrived. João Felix is yet to do the work for the purpose he was signed. He's a fantastic player, no doubt but he needs more improvement Infront of goals, because that's the key criteria that enforced the value of players in the transaction market. Chelsea are having a terrible time winning games so Felix not been able to play according to fans expectations, it means there's more time for Chelsea to healed. João Felix was one of the key frontline in athletico madrid, but currently they can do without him in games.

Chelsea do have serious intentions to make Joao Felix permanent at Chelsea, but to do that's not easy, reportedly Chelsea have to prepare 100M Euros to get Joao Felix. We don't know what will happen in the future, but if we refer to the good relationship between Todd Boehly and Jorge Mendes who is Joao's agent, I think it is not impossible that Chelsea will get the young Portugal player for next season.

They’re rumours that Arsenal are interested in signing Ryan Gravenberch from Bayern Munich. If Arsenal can get him, it’s been be a very good business. During his time with Ajax, Gravenberch had established himself as one of the most promising young central midfielders in Europe, offering a rare blend of central progression with an intelligent reading of the game. Arsenal needs bodies in that midfield to offer competition for Xhaka and Odegaard so there is need to bolster their midfield options at the end of the current campaign.

I think it will depend on Atletico whether to let go of this player or not but for Felix being at Chelsea would be better than going back to Atletico Madrid and not getting as much playing time again, he is a player who has skills but he is also a player who can bring his team is in danger because his style of play is quite rough so it is very possible to get a card and it must be changed. Chelsea doesn't stop looking for players they think are fit to contribute next season but actually the problem is the coaches who haven't been able to build a strong team.

Liverpool have dropped off the list of clubs wanting Jude Bellingham, £130m is too much for LFC at the moment and will focus more on finding another midfielder, https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1645904330141073408
with this news Real Madrid and PSG will be the only remaining clubs still making offers for this young players.

We lasted a day in our attempt to sign Bellingham

The news broke yesterday that we're interested and that we have sent an inquiry and it was followed with 'Bellingham out of Liverpool's range' soon after.

Shame, he's one of the future stars but I never felt we really had a realistic chance there - especially without CL football next season.

LOL! 100M Euros to snag Joao Felix for Chelsea permanently? That's a mountain of cash. Now, as a true Blue, I'm aware Felix is an excellent player, but is he worth that kind of money? Chelsea's finances got me biting my nails. They've shelled out big bucks on transfers lately, and if they keep burning through cash like this, they might just go belly up.

But hey, I'm also hopeful about Chelsea's shot at signing Felix. If the buzz about their cozy relationship with Joao's agent is legit, maybe they can snatch him up at a fair price. They might just wheel and deal with Atletico Madrid and find a win-win. Though, I'm a bit skeptical about Nkunku's future at Chelsea if Felix joins the roster. Competition would be fierce, and it's anyone's guess who'd reign supreme. But, who knows? Chelsea might just pull it off.

I believe that Leicester City made as good of a move they possibly can. Dean Smith is not the greatest manager ever obviously, but he is one that could understand the league and understand the system there and could make some changes.

Even Pep had some troubles early on, because understanding premier league is a bit hard, and this way I am sure that we are going to see Leicester do as well as they possibly could on the early weeks compared to later weeks, no time lost there and while we are at this late, it should be noted that quick results are what they need. I am not saying this will change something for good and it will be huge deal, but they are Leicester, they can't simply get the greatest managers with ease.

Despite a tempting offer from PSG whose amount is unknown, Messi's agents and father have yet to give in. Various bids have been coming in from other angles, including ALhilal, but Barcelona seems determined to get Messi at all costs.

Messi endorsement and revenue to clubs is really worth it otherwise, I don't know why clubs  are willing to spend large sums of money to acquire him, just like him and Ronaldo are old but the interest to have them in their cycle is strong, there performance has been on decline and yet clubs don't look at it.

They should keep him, because to me he is one of their most influential player this season even though he has not been long with the team and with the other talents they have. And for those who think Felix is not worth that amount, they should think again. He is an excellent player that is a treasure for any team that has him, and if Chelsea want to keep him from returning back to Atletico Madrid, they should be able to pay that price. Atletico Madrid need the money too.

Messi to Barcelona is seems possible everyday, because Messi agent has not given any light to the psg offer. Personally I don't buy the ideal of re-signing Messi to Barcelona, it means they have to let some young stars go. Because of Fifa financial fair play. It will cost Barcelona a whole lot of money to bring Messi back to the club. But they will gain more. The club isn't interested in what he will win for them, but for the endorsement and sponsor his appearance will bring to the club.  Messi and Ronaldo are for business now, sign them with big amount and gain more.

Shame, he's one of the future stars but I never felt we really had a realistic chance there - especially without CL football next season.

I heard the news an hour ago and it is quite a shock that Liverpool are out of contention for Bellingham. Maybe this is more than Liverpool's insufficient funds to bring him to Anfield. On the other hand, Liverpool were also unable to compete with other rich clubs such as Manchester City, Real Madrid and PSG who offered each other fee agreements for Bellingham. This is a transfer rumor that is still quite complicated and we will still be waiting for further developments.

I never said that Lewandowski and Messi could end up having any problems with each other. On the contrary, I think Lewandowski knows about Messi's excellent skills to provide assists and every offender can only dream of playing with Messi as he developed into a real team player who is not so much after scoring himself anymore. He could be a real improvement for Barcelona's game as he adds the surprise effect because he still has the speed and the precision to create game situations like nobody else and also nobody can anticipate.

The jersey sales are one option and perhaps Barcelona sponsors would also help finance such a deal, but there will be financial limits even with sponsors involved. But maybe Messi already thinks about the time after his career and wants to make a step towards Barcelona now. But will he really forego the opportunity to make a couple of hundred of millions going abroad?

There is no doubt if we have Robert Lewandowski and Lionel Messi in Barcelona for the next season this could be deadly combo even I can say here this could be more lethal from Mbappé, Neymar and Messi in PSG because both players have amazing body language and things could be at his peak but this all need FFP approval which is surely not easy for Barcelona because they are already under huge debut and if they want to bring him back then surely need to offload few other players as well because their current salaries budget is already under problems which needs quick settlement these all issues are going against this combo.

But, if somehow Barcelona able to have them in their team at same time then we can expect amazing work and games against top team in La Liga and Champions League as well as hype is going nothing is clear because no one can predict where Messi is going to land for the next season and FFP problem allow Barcelona to have this player back into team.

If everyone were to play to the best of their abilities, Messi, Mbappe and Neymar should be more efficient than Lewandowski and Messi. Whatever the outcome may be of the next transfer window, Messi and Lewandowski could work out, but only for a year or two. You usually don't want two people approaching 40 years of age to be the pivotal point of your game.

Barcelona has to be planning for the future as well. Messi can assist and he can still decide games, but as much as I like him and I also think that Lewandowski is great, the two playing together would still be a transition period into something new. Messi could hep with building something new though.

Atletico Madrid need the money too.

Joao Felix already settled down quickly into the Chelsea squad, if not for the red card which I feel had a drop of his good start, he's really been a player of great impact to the Chelsea attacking line of players. All he needs is the right coach, just the way Erik Ten Hag has helped unlocked the potentials in Marcus Rashford. I really do hoped for a brave player like Felix, but it's all cleared we ain't getting him.
I don't think they have that funds for him to return back to Chelsea, he'll probably move back to Athletico Madrid.

I've read of Real Madrid President wanting to sign Samuel Chukwueze after the great show he had against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabue last weekend. I believe this are purely speculations.
