⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

I am happy for Karim Benzema. He has served the good world of football very well, he has been humble and dutiful in both club and nation, this is time for him to go and enjoy and also retire well.
He appeared and won almost everything possible even in the generation of Messi and Ronaldo. My love and respect for him is very high.
Also Ngolo Kante is a very down to earth footballer. Although I would have wished he remained in the Europe for sometime but since he made his choice, I respect that and love him with my heart . Congratulations to the happy dude.

Well, Benzema is on the right team to show his best in Saudi Pro League. He is lucky that Al Ittihad gave a big offer for him. Benzema also will get a big salary there. So, I am pretty sure that Benzema will experience a great season in Saudi the next season.  

Contract closed/valid for two years and option of an extension of the bond, but speaking the truth... will Benzema last that long in the "desert"?
I question why I've seen the almost regret of Cristiano Ronaldo wanting to leave there with less than 6 months, why is that?
Only the high salary (astronomical) is not enough to motivate high-level players to stay in a country with a culture so different from what they are used to in Europe.

We know that "young" athletes like them need a good night of relaxation, drinks, women and games....that is not so easily found there.

Anyway, I'm rooting for Benzema's future and I hope he plays well at Al-Ittihad, but honestly I find it difficult for him to fulfill the two-year contract.

The arabian club was never giving huge offers in the past but the things have changed once nassr was offering a very big contract to the ronaldo. Nassr was even making ronaldo as the richest footballers.

It's starting now. Even benzema is aware of how important money when he will not be playing in the football again. that's why 1 season in madrid is not important anymore since an offer was coming for him from ittihad.

If saudi clubs were offering a huge contract to the non star player and i think this player will accept it instantly. Arabian club was only picking star player from EU league to push the popularity of the competition.

You will be seeing more EU players come to the SPL soon. It's just the matter of time.

People have been interesting to become professional football caused by they could get huge salary + popularity.

I am happy Karim Benzema finally landed this deal, this is a huge deal especially coming at this stage of his career he will have the chance to play and earn a very huge amount of money in wages. It might not be one of the leagues in Europe but at this point I think it is the money that matters the most. Benzema is aged and past his prime there isn't much left to prove or show to convince anyone that he is one of the best players in the world.

Modric, who is in the last years of his career with Benzema, may make such a transfer this year. Seeing the size of the salary, I was already waiting for Benzema to accept this offer. Also, I don't think it will be too difficult since it will be in a culture close to its own. After all, he is a Muslim football player and can understand Saudi Arabian rules a little easier. Who can refuse 200 Million Euros a year?

After Cristiano Ronaldo now it’s Karim Benzema’s turn to join the Saudi Arabian professional league and he will play against Ronaldo knowing that Al-Ittihad ( Benzema ) vs Al-Nassr ( Ronaldo ) are like Real Madrid vs Barcelona. This season Al-Ittihad Won the cup after a long fight in standings between these two teams. Many people will join and watch this league because of this latest transfers.
Saudi Arabia intensions for these star players they recruit are obviously for more chances to host the World Cup of 2030. Knowing that these players won’t really provide much for the team except more challenge for other players to show better performance against them.
In my opinion Benzema will easily fullfill the contract of two years as he still has the shape and passion to play more football and score more goals.

Benzema and Ronaldo are close friends. They may be rivals on the field, but I think his friendship with Ronaldo will continue off the field. If Ronaldo does not leave Saudi Arabia, I am sure that Karim Benzema will be one of the most delighted to be transferred to this league. The Saudi Arabian league will continue to host important stars and yes they are the biggest contenders for the 2030 world cup.

The football world is making headway; we're seeing top divisions from the Saudi League, and the country's influential people and firms are strongly supporting large signings of world-class players. Saudi Arabian clubs are attempting to elevate their league to the level of major European leagues. It's conceivable since they're starting to sign great names in football and making them enticing offers. Karim Benzema has followed in the footsteps of Cristiano Ronaldo, transferring to elite teams in Saudi Arabia most likely because to the massive income he would earn.

It seems like that if kante will be going to the al ittihad. he will be playing with benzema on al ittihad which is a very great.

Two legends in the same club. Kante has been winning all of trophies along with benzema. This guys were also from france which is very good for ittihad to have this duet. I hope that more france players will be signed by ittihad soon.

That's a great deal for kante. He can enjoy his life. Kante is such a legend for chelsea. He has been contributing a lot to the club. He has won everything.

It appears that teams in the Arab League are starting to disrupt the market value of top-class players who have achieved satisfaction and now seek a more objective approach to securing their future. In this transfer window, Saudi clubs are offering high salaries to star players, which undoubtedly presents a more enticing proposition compared to European clubs.


There are rumors that Messi will join Al Hilal, but his father wants to delay it for a year so that Messi can play for Barcelona for one more season. Will Messi go straight to Saudi Arabia? Or will he make a stopover in Barcelona first?

Ronaldo, Benzema, Messi, Kante, and even other players who are highly likely are tempted by the riches of the Saudi League, such as Alexis Sanchez, Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets, and Sergio Ramos. Some Saudi clubs may have ambitious targets for the upcoming season, thus engaging in a fierce competition to acquire top European players in this transfer market.

As Mbappe mentioned, if he has a dream to play in Real Madrid, any money will not be enough. If his ideal is to become a Real Madrid legend, Mbappe will definitely go to Real. However, rumors began to be heard that Real Madrid were interested in Harry Kane. If they sign Harry Kane, I think we can say that Mbappe will stay in Paris this year.

I totally disagree and he delivered the example himself. If Real Madrid knocks on your door with a great contract and they tell you they want to turn you into the next global superstar and build the squad around you, and you know that all the fans will lie at your feet and you can play in the Bernabeu stadium in front of over 80,000 Spanish hardcore fans, why would you not accept the offer? The answer is simple, because Mbappe got a cash bonus of 200 million or so for staying in PSG and this is not included in his salary. The salary comes on top.

Do you still think that Mbappe did decide against Real Madrid because because his dream at that time was to play for PSG instead of Real Madrid?

[CryptocurencyKing]

Messi seem willing to rejoin Barcelona this summer and it us only a matter of time before Barcelona begin steps to make Messi a Barcelona player again. Talking about the money, Messi had taken a pay-cut before to remain at the club, I'm confident he can make that sacrifice again for Barcelona been fully aware of the conditions of the club.

The big question about Messi joining Barcelona again next season will be is he going to be a regular starter for the club knowing too well that age is no longer on his side or will he accept to play from the bench instead of going to Saudi Arabia where he will have a big pay and still be a regular starter and key player to the team? Well this question will be answered by the decision Messi wants to make because it is very clear that he's no longer a PSG player so it will only take some time to know his next step but going back to his child hood club Barcelona to help the team won't be a bad idea because the team contributed to the better player that he is right now.

Concerning the pay cut that Messi initially accepted before moving back to PSG, the decision is left for him and the Barcelona president to decide but there's no way he won't be paid for his services even though the club is still in financial crisis he's got some bills to pay I think he's going to work on the pay cut to help his team if really he has the mind to play for Barcelona again.

Honestly I don’t know what Messi is waiting for to give the green light for his Saudi move. I don’t think he should return to Barcelona. It won’t end well. Probably. It’s a matter of principle for me and I’ve seen it replay many times in different situations. Once you pack your bags and leave something after hitting the climax, do not go back. There is only one way things can go and that’s downwards. Circumstances induced. But all good things come to an end. What is he going to do in Barcelona that will wow anybody? He will probably take a wage cut. Is it really worth it when 400m is on the table?

Great player, he'll be a great addition to that Liverpool midfielder's, especially with the reduced performance of Thiago Alcantara. Brighton Albion dropped him on the bench immediately he was linked to Liverpool and other Premier League sides because he was unhappy.
Dreams here finally for him. Glad to see he completed the medical with Liverpool today.

Jude Bellingham should have been the best option, but he's just too good, the right decision at this period was to choose Real Madrid.

Real Madrid has also made move for Harry Kane finally, I've read the player has given the green light to move out of Tottenham Hotspur finally. He needs the switch, any player that leaves Tottenham Hotspur ends up winning a trophy.

Jude is such an expensive player that it would be great to have him but it doesn't really make sense to pay that much for him at all. I understand some other teams like Real may end up paying that much because they do have the money for it and what are they going to do if not get players with that money? I mean what's the point of being a superbly rich club if you aren't going to collect all the great players.

However, if you do not want to pay that much, then I guess Macallister is actually quite decent player, in fact I can easily say that the difference between the player is a lot less than the difference between the cost for sure, that's why I believe that there is a logical reason why they got him. It's going to be a great help, but at first it might be hard adjusting, eventually he will get better.

It seems to be an internal matter where Messi feels comfortable playing at Barcelona, which makes him think twice about the high-paying offer from the Saudi Club. He may also want to have a career closure in Europe with Barcelona, the club that has elevated his name to greatness.

Recalling Messi returning to Barcelona, it reminds me of Ronaldo returning to Man United. In the end, the world's top players will head to Saudi to enjoy football before hanging up their boots.

Kante is about to sign for one of the Saudi Arabian teams interested in him. His salary could reach 100m euros according to the source. I don't feel like Chelsea will try to extend his contract. If they had such intention I think they would have started the talks with him already. That lasting injury period must have affected Chelsea's opinion about him negatively.

There oli money doesn't affect the main sport because they can't attract younger players and they're not competing in any top European league so their oil money is only been used as a retirement pension for player that are done playing football. Let look at the players they have been able to sign so far and those they're rumour to be attracting, these are players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema and the rest. This guy's don't have anything more to prove to Europe because they have won basically everything. Now they're interested in Messi and Kante, they have already achieved everything in football too so they don't care about competing anymore.

I think Kante should take the deal and leave for Saudi Arabia. That country will suit him very well because he's a Muslim and also a very loving guy. He shouldn't think of renewing his contract at Chelsea. He's now injury prone, he couldn't play much game last season and that's all because of his injuries. Kante has won everything possible with Chelsea in regards to major trophies so if he retired now by going to play in Saudi Arabia it isn't a bad thing and Chelsea should capitalized on this offer to get a good money for him instead allowing him to run out his contract and becomes a free agent.

According to Italian SkySports reporter Di Marzio, Roma have concrete interest on Youri Tielemans ^[1] who left Leicester City as his contract expired last week. There are reports of Aston Villa also interested in the player. ^[2] I think at Roma he will find much more timing and become a crucial player as compared to Aston Villa but the player might choose to stay in PL as he might feel much more comfortable here and avoid moving to other league. Where will he go? Will there be more teams joining in for the race to sign Tielemans?

We all know that Mbappe has messed up Real Madrid once and I don't think this behavior is easy for Real Madrid fans to forgive. I guess that Real Madrid boards are also furious with Mbappe's attitude and it can be concluded that Mbappe is a fickle player who is more concerned with how much income he can get, so it's not without reason if many people think that he is a typical player who does not have high loyalty.

Mbappe is probably one of the better strikers at the moment but what Real Madrid needs is not a striker with that attitude. So I think Harry Kane and Osimhen would be more promising signings than Mbappe.

[Strongkored]

such as Alexis Sanchez

Alexis Sanchez gets an offer that isn't as big as other players get, it's understandable because he gets an offer from a club that might not be as ambitious as other Arab clubs and financial factors can be the cause, Sanchez gets an offer from Al Fateh which this season ends in position six standings and which since the Saudi Pro League took place could only win once in the 2012-2013 season. With a lot of other star players coming so, there's no harm in spending money on bringing in players who can increase the club's rating in terms of broadcasting because it will probably get a lot of viewers from the country where Sanchez is from.

I think Messi decided to rejoin Barcelona to play for few more seasons and leave the club amicably with a proper send forth unlike his last unceremoniously exist to PSG which caused some rift between the club and him, of course his entire playing career was spent in Barcelona thus should be rewarded with a club legend status when he finally quit accepting a paycut to rejoin a club that made him a star isn't a bad idea of course other players could be tempted with mouth watering contract offered by the Saudi Arabian clubs, personally I think Messi return to Barcelona wouldn't bear any consequence rather both parties will benefit.

Harry Kane is a top player, but it's unfortunate that he's currently at an average team Spurs. He can go there and achieve this goal within the next three seasons by winning some trophies.

However, despite this good news, there is possibility that his age could become a factor in the coming years. That's why some fans are suggesting that Real Madrid should start planning for the future and consider getting a young striker like Victor Osimhen or Kylian Mbappe.

Its seems still rumor and not confirmed yet from Lionel Messi have reach personal agreement with Al Hilal, but excited after Karim Benzema joining with Al Ittihad will Lionel Messi follow Benzema and play for Saudi Pro League teams? Many European players rumor will play for Saudi Pro League teams next season exactly with some player have been free agent and make it easy to signing them without have to pay transfer values.

Saudi Pro League teams will be excited competition for next season because many star players will be there, after Ronaldo, Benzema and last rumor Nkante have reach agreement with Al Ittihad then many star player linked will play there from Sergio Ramos, Jordi Alba, lexis Sanchez and Sergio Busquets. I am excited waiting with Lionel Messi decision, will accept with Al Hilal offering or keep stay with European teams and play for Barcelona next season.

If Kane is really brought in by Madrid, maybe this will add to Madrid's attack line even stronger, especially since Benzema is not playing for Madrid so with the addition of attacking players to have even better quality attack lines.
I think for next season, Madrid really needs a change of players in the attack line so that in every game they can provide more scoring opportunities.

For Victor Osimhen, it might be easy for Madrid to take him, but for Mbappe, I'm not sure that Madrid can get this great young player because of course PSG will keep him so he can play for PSG a little longer.
