⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Ondekinecakabilirim]

I think not any personal verbal agreement reached between Barcelona and İlkay Gündoğan, actually Manchester City success signing Chelsea midfielder Mateo Kovačić will replace position leaving İlkay Gündoğan but still not confirm yet which one team will play next season. Not only Barcelona but also Arsenal and PSG has announced interested for signing İlkay Gündoğan next season.

Arsenal may be the best option for İlkay at first glance. Arteta is Pep's former student. If he transfers to Arsenal, he will not have any tactical problems. But that means he was transferred from the champion team to the second team. This is a tough choice. That's why he might consider leaving the Premier League. And for that reason PSG might be a good option for him. As a result, he can play for a few more years in the top leagues in Europe. He showed everyone that he can do this with his performance in the last matches. I think Manchester City made a mistake by not offering him a 2 or 3 year contract. When they lose İlkay, they will understand his value more.

For Inter Miami, Messi became a jackpot, which they got for free. Messi hoped to the last that he would be able to return to Barcelona, but according to him, no one could guarantee that everything would be fine under the terms of the contract, since Barcelona still had financial problems. In Inter Miami, he got a contract for 3 years with a payment of 50 million a year, not bad at all.

Actually Messi really wants to return to Barcelona, the financial problems that are currently befalling Barcelona have prevented them from bringing Messi back to Camp Nou. Not being able to get Messi back was a failure for Barcelona, but on the other hand Barcelona still have luck because Ilkay Gundogan has agreed to join Barcelona. Gundogan and Barcelona have even verbally agreed to a three-year contract, according to reports from Mundo Deportivo Barcelona will announce Gundogan transfer after the Champions League final.

I really think Messi shouldn't have made a move to Inter miami,and should have moved to Premier league instead to make history in the premier league as well.Christiano Ronaldo has played in almost the three major leagues in Europe, Bundesliga,English premier league and Lalliga which he made history in almost all those leagues.Messi is a star we all know,and his coming to premier league would have been a massive boost to EPL.Neverthess,let's wait to see the kind of record he will create at his new club.

Well Messi is probobly full of playing football and just wants to have fun a little and earn a lot more money in the last years of his football career. After he won the world cup he dosent have to win anything so there isnt anymore motivation for him to play at the top quality level as before.

At his current age, maybe he can already determine which direction he should go and Messi must have a clear goal or maybe he wants to get a bigger fee to enjoy on his retirement day.
But not sure if it's true but I really believe messi will set a new record in his current team.

Well Messi is probobly full of playing football and just wants to have fun a little and earn a lot more money in the last years of his football career. After he won the world cup he dosent have to win anything so there isnt anymore motivation for him to play at the top quality level as before.

It is pretty obvious, that all those transfers that are happening in the last 2 years or so of very big and very famous players to clubs from leagues that are absolutely irrelevant in the world of football are only happening because those players can earn a ridiculous amount of money there. I mean those players have earned between 15-25 Million € per year before too at least, but now at those clubs they can get ten times of that per season which is just crazy.
A single one of those players is earning more money there in one season of playing for a club that is absolutely irrelevant than a whole village of engineers and doctors will earn in their whole life.

Zinedine Zidane has once again rejected Paris Saint-Germain's offer as the French champions look to replace Christophe Galtier at the helm.

https://www.goal.com/en/news/psg-approached-zinedine-zidane-over-replacing-christophe-galtier-but-former-real-madrid-boss-turned-french-champions-down-for-the-second-time/blt29f406b7d0e60ba6

It doesn't even matter how many times PSG tried to approach zidane to be a new coach and the result will always be the same. I see no hope for PSG to get him. PSG seems very ambitious to get him as a new coach for the club yet zidane reject it again.
It seems like that the possible thing for PSG to sign naglesman at this moment but yeah this guy is not having very good track record like zidane.

Im willing to see who will become alternative coaches to be signed by PSG in the future. We can remove zidane from the list of potential coach that will be signed by PSG.
I see no hope for PSG to sign him. Zidane was always rejecting PSG so many times.

But I would even say that this is embarrassing if you can't get Zidane as a coach for the team of the main city of his home country. Zidane probably shares the opinion that many people have. The league isn't competitive and if you won the Champions League with Real Madrid and the La Liga title against Barcelona, why would you want to find yourself coaching PSG? That team is a step back and it doesn't matter how many superstars they have. I mean I think they have already reached the maximum with Messi, Neymar and Mbappe and even Ramos. There isn't much more you can do and yet they were without a chance against Bayern Munich. Zidane knows that. If he accepts an offer he can only lose. Winning Ligue 1 and Coup de France doesn't count for PSG's management. But I would like to know which clubs Zidane would accept an offer from.

There was a new update. It seems like that PSG was not sending a negotiation to the zidane. There have been so many fake news. it's very hard to determine which was true but the thing that makes me feel curious is with the confimation that came by romano and it seems like that PSG was not even willing to sign zidane as a new coach. This becomes even more non sense since zidane has so many good achievements in the past and PSG is not willing to trust him as a new coach.
It seems like that if PSG knew zidane will not be interested on its offer or what?

PSG is seriously in talk with naglesmann to be a new coach. I don't even what's wrong with this team. It's always refusing to sign a good coach to rebuild the club.
Zidane has a lot of experience to make it happen. PSG can at least

The situation around PSG and Zidane indeed leaves one scratching their head! Zidane, with his array of accomplishments, appears to be a perfect fit for any team wishing to ascend in the football hierarchy. Yet, for reasons as clear as mud, PSG doesn't seem to be keen on bringing him aboard.

Football news can often be a mess. In this cacophony of transfer rumors and coaching news, we must learn to separate the wheat from the chaff when it comes to media outlets. It is absolutely crucial to ascertain the reliability of a source before taking the news at face value. Because, in the end, even the best of us can be led astray by fake news.

Yes Dortmund is indeed used to it and have been going through this a dozen of times by now I guess, but they have been doing an impressive job at finding replacements for these super talents. Financially this has been paying off for them for a very long time now, but I understand when they think that they are still facing a loss in terms of the quality of their team and the upcoming season. Once you see that someone has integreated perfectly into the existing team, it would be preferable to keep him if possible. But that is how the business goes. Bellingham won't be the last young super talent that they have to let go.

This trend has been something they have done from previous seasons where Dortmund always make big profits in the transfer market because they sell their star players to other teams. Even for bellingham he is a player who is quite influential for dortmund this season but Management still sells him in order to get income.

From the other side it is true that Dortmund can find the right replacement figure if one of their players goes to another team in the transfer market. For that I don't think they will be strong enough to win the Bundesliga trophy if they do the option to sell star players but that is their tradition.

The sad truth is that Dortmund has no choice but to sell those players. If they decided to not sell and instead keep the player until the contract expires, it would not be sustainable for Dortmund at all in the long run. It is almost like consolation money when they have to let their best players go but at the same time earn record breaking transfer fees in the Bundesliga. I was just going through a thought experiment and tried to remember which players they had to let go in the past that then became world class in other teams. There are quite a lot of those players and nobody can tell where Dortmund would be today if they were able to keep those players and convince them of a future with Dortmund. But the offers from abroad are often too tempting.

The news on Goal.com says that there is a chance for Real Madrid to sign Bayern Munich youngster (22) Alphonso Davies this summer. It is said that some contract talks have been held with him by Bayern Munich lately but there is still nothing certain if he will extend with them. It looks like Real Madrid look for strengthening their left-back so Davies can be a really nice improvement.

Besides Davies is quite a versatile player at the same time. In addition to his natural position he can play as left midfielder and left winger also when there is need. He is one of the important parts of Bayern Munich currently so it might not be easy for Real Madrid to convince his team. His market value is €70m while there are still 2 more years on his contract too.

Aside from that Davies seems okay to sign for Real Madrid if he gets an offer. He admires Real Madrid's big success in the Champions League. 

There must be an atom of validity in this news honestly. Personally, if I was Davis, I already won all it takes at bundesliga, give me good reasons why I shouldn't explore. Playing for Real Madrid is every players dream and he is also worth playing for the club.
The new coach Thomas Tuchel might have some changes and upgrade to, so it'll be best he makes the move now. Real Madrid shouldn't focus on that position just alone, they should take good look at the right wing honestly, Dani Cavajal does needs challenge from a much younger player.

Davies shouldn't miss out on this opportunity, he can also play both the right win. I think finally they've found a replacement for Marcelo.

[herurist]

Bellingham's deal is done?

Huge move by Real, he will be one of the best midfielders in world football for the next 10+ years.

They now have 4 midfielders with huge potential (Bellingham, Tchouameni, Camavinga and Valverde) and are ready to start replacing their senior midfielders.
I'm glad that Modrić will be staying for another year - he deserves it. Not sure they will keep Kroos now, though.

This can be a good asset especially the 2 players there too (Valverde and Camavinga) now their positions can be flexible wherever they are placed and this can be another advantage for Madrid.
Now with conditions like this they just have to do their best because with the current midfield the coach obviously has several options now in the scheme to run. Now they have to focus on strikers.

[borovichok]

Tchouameni was bought for 80 million? He only managed to score 3 goals in Monaco, and he didn't score any goals in the real world, I think? I read that Liverpool wanted to buy him, but is it crazy to buy a player who does not score for such money?

It's a very strange policy for a club. For example Asensio. Real do not want to pay 6 million salary for Asensio, but they are ready to throw away 80 million for Tchouameni, even though Asensio scores even when substituting and now Assencio has signed a contract with PSG until 2027. By the way, PSG got such a player for free.

€80 million was deemed excessive for a player who has yet to make a name for himself in the football world. Aurélien Tchouameni is a young footballer with a lengthy career ahead of him. Despite his inabilities to score goals, he served crucial purposes for the club. He's sensitive, and while he's at his best in some games, he falls short in others. Carlo Ancelotti will give him more playing time next season to be able to test him in more difficult scenarios. One thing I appreciate about the player is his ability to attack opponents and build the strength to match up one on one with players.

Davies is out of contract in 2025, and Real Madrid have been linked with a move to next summer, taking advantage of that expiring contract, if no deal gets done. Bayern Munich have signed Rafael Gurreiro on free transfer from Borussia Dortmund, so I’m thinking they’ll allow Davies leave in the summer. Also Thomas Tuchel’s future as manager is unclear, despite being in the job less than six months, and the period of potential transition could persuade Davies to push for a move to Real Madrid.

One thing I appreciate about the player is his ability to attack opponents and build the strength to match up one on one with players.

Maybe Real Madrid has another perspective on why they wanted to buy Tchouamni at that price and of course Real Madrid always looks at players from a long-term perspective and because of that they have started to regenerate since a few seasons ago from various sides. Real Madrid are well aware of what they want from Tchouameni and with the cool hands of the coach slowly this player will also be able to develop.

Tchouameni is a box to box player and although he plays as a defensive midfielder, he often helps out in attack. Next season will be the busiest part of Real Madrid and it is certain that the new arrivals will start a new era at Los Blancos.

[coinlocket$]

Serie A is so dead on market, maybe only Napoli will be able to spend some money if they will sell few players.

Otherwise we will have basically only on loan players.

Firstly, when did Ronaldo play in the Bundesliga? That never happened, lol... Secondly, Messi is well aware that his age will no longer allow him to play at the top level in the English Premier League, so he has chosen a quiet game where he will maintain his form. After all he didn't go for the money, that's really decent

Yep. Bellingham is officially a new player for Real Madrid. Dortmund agreed with the offer of 103 million euros. Now, there will be no rumor again about Bellingham moving to another team. It is clear already that Real Madrid wins the competition for signing Dortmund's young superstar.

We expect that Bellingham can be more successful in Real Madrid. Sure, there are 4 great midfielders on Real Madrid squad now and they all are young players with potential futures. I'm sure this can make Real Madrid be more confident about their future if there are many young players to sign. There are enough midfielders to replace Kroos and Modric. Now, it is time to focus on looking for new strikers to replace Benzema's position.

Carefully looking at the Real Madrid sqaud, one can say that they have team that's made up of youngster who already making names for themselves irrespective of their nationality differences.
Alphonso Davies is very good left back footballer who's got an electrifying pace when his team is attacking and defensively disciplined when his team is also defending. If Real Madrid happens to get his services on permanent basis, then Real Madrid will be very difficult to play against

[Velvet78]

Declan Rice has been a target for Arsenal mostly and Bayern Munich have also been monitoring him for some time. He has newly won the Europa Conference League title with West Ham and this must have made him really happy. But still I don't expect him to decide to stay instead of joining one of these teams of course.

Technically Bayern Munich is a much bigger team but it is all up to Rice's being okay with leaving England or not. If he decides not to leave then Arsenal will be able to sign him most probably. I mean I have heard about a rumour related to Manchester City as well but I don't know if they really think of making an offer.

Declan Rice will no stay back at West Ham united after a successful season with them. He just recently won the europa conference league and he’s one of their key playmakers in the team. It’s true that he’s linked to other teams that will love to have him play with them. One thing I’m certain on is that Declan won’t stay back at West Ham next season, even the manager said they can’t hold him back if he wants to leave.

The option between Arsenal and Bayern Munich linked to him is a matter of personal decision and choice but it’ll be better for him to join Arsenal than joining Bayern Munich. He’ll enjoy more playing time in Arsenal than Bayern Munich where the competition for starting 11 is high to some level.

This is important. Actually, when talking about the conditions of PSG and Zidane, this is indeed quite interesting and certainly there is a lot of news about this, so under these conditions it is still very possible about fake news and others.
At present the media must always fry things without caring whether it is right or wrong, the most important thing for some media is news.
So in this case, we really have to look for it and shouldn't be too influenced by news of small change like that, bearing in mind that currently there are actually many media outlets that are quite reliable as well, so in this case we have to be even more selective in viewing news, especially transfers of players or coaches.
But talking about Zidane I think it's quite possible because rather than being rejected by Zidane because Zidane wasn't too interested in PSG it would be better for them to give up from the start and look for new priorities again.

Agreed, but sometimes even a reliable source could be wrong as well. Nothing certain when we are talking about speculation caused by we are talking that something that can change anytime. The speculation was dynamic.
PSG has been in talk with naglesmann but so far nothing concrete about what's gonna be the final result between PSG and naglesmann. I hope that PSG will able to get a new coach as soon as possible.

The summer transfer season will be opened very soon, that means if PSG must have rebuilt its team again. It will be so badly if PSG doesn't have a good coach that can handle the club so well.
PSG must find a new coach as soon as possible but it must be a world class coach that will be handle PSG for next season. I don't wanna see another amateur coach to handle PSG.

[snipie]

The interesting transfers that have been done were first for Bellingham from Dortmund to Real Madrid which is the most expensive so far.
There is Messi to Inter Miami but I heard that the money that will be earned by him will be higher than the best top 10 players in USA together? Not sure how accurate this information. Benzema moved to Saudi Arabia.
Liverpool, Spurs, Juventus started recruiting players and there is Napoli that signed a second striker. Dunno if it will be a move before letting Osimhen go or not yet.

[Leviathan.007]

Serie A is so dead on market, maybe only Napoli will be able to spend some money if they will sell few players.

Otherwise we will have basically only on loan players.

Napoli is just losing players and I see much news about their superstar players or young telnets, maybe Napoli just doesn't have enough money for keeping these players and that's why you can't expect more from this team.
I see even their Asian player Min-Jae Kim is linked to Newcastle and this can't be good for Napoli next season.

[Spacewalker]

It seems that the question of cooperation between Zidane and Paris Saint Germain is now closed, at least until the winter period, and Zidane once again refused Paris Saint Germain. This time it is already becoming unclear, because Zizu has no other options planned, and the creative break is already clearly starting to drag on, because practice is useful in the coaching craft, and Zinedin has obvious problems with this practice. Unless the ubiquitous insiders missed this moment and Zidane is preparing an epochal arrival to some team right under their noses.
