⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[ancafe]

Bernardo Silva will not leave Manchester City next season, I think that's normal for him. As well as PSG, I think Bernardo Silva would also be interested in playing for Barcelona and it's true that he won't be going to the Arab Pro League anytime soon. Bernardo Silva's performance is still very much worth playing a few more seasons in Europe even though the Saudi team will make a high bid for him, but I hope he will reject it for the next 3-4 seasons.

I think Silva will only join PSG or Barcelona if he wants to leave Manchester City. Xavi and Luis Enrique about want him because of his good playing style, but I tend to think Barcelona will get him.

Bernardo Silva became one of the important players for Manchester City last season and he is also one of the best midfielders who has successfully led Manchester City to win three titles in one season. Several sources I read in the local media Bernardo Silva said he would stay at Manchester City and he refused to comment on the offers that came in for him to play in the Saudi Arabian league.

For the next few seasons Bernardo Silva still has a great chance to play in Europe, but it really depends on how next season he can keep up with other midfielders and not lose his place in the main squad. So that it doesn't affect his appearance and playing time, even if next season he wants to leave then I agree Barcelona is a suitable place for him.

PSG and Barcelona have the option to swap players for Bernardo Silva. even PSG offers 2 players that can be exchanged for Bernardo Silva. Man City offered a raise to keep him afloat. and maybe it is Bernardo Silva and Man City's best choice. although there were rumors that Bernardo Silva wanted to go to Barcelona.
Bernardo Silva's contract with Man City is still up to 2025. I'm sure Man City will not rush to sell him this season. but if the player wants, maybe Man City will prepare another offer for Bernardo Silva to stay in the team.

Chelsea continues to add ammunition to their young players and now it's Lesley Ugochukwu's turn to be brought in from Rennes. After going through quite tough negotiations, finally the cost of 27 million euros was agreed by both parties and the duration of Lesley Ugochukwu's contract will last until 2030. Pochettino really seems to want to build the Chelsea squad filled with more young players and he is very confident that Chelsea can return to the highest caste of European football with the players of his choice. I'm very curious about how these young players will be in the most competitive competition and we know all EPL teams are in a transitional period so they can consistently achieve the desired results.

It is reported that Xavi was very disappointed with Dembele decision to move, because Xavi had already told Barca management to keep him next season. because the flexibility and control of the French winger game is considered by Xavi to be able to contribute to the team. But Barcelona doesn't seem to want to take too big a risk, because Dembele only has one year left on his contract. And the performance is less consistent because it is prone to injury.

This could be part of Barcelona strategy to recruit Jao Felix or Bernardo Silva. By releasing Dembele, it will provide additional funds to recruit one of these players.

Barcelona on the verge of losing one of their outstanding player this summer, it would hugh loss for them, perhaps they've zero options to contest to hold him back, the player's mind is already made up, time to start a fresh challenge elsewhere because he's not consistent in games in La Liga due to severe recording of injuries. Xavi Hernandez would be really pained concerning the move of Ousmane Dembele, but he has no choice than to accept the fate of the Frenchman. PSG valued him and would definitely signed him over in the transfer window.

Dembele didn't make the match day squad, not even on the bench for the match against AC Milan, I guess that pretty much sums it up that his transfer is imminent and is just about a matter of time before the final details are being release, which could be a handful, given the passing of the deal for his 50m euros release clause.

If indeed Dembele was requested for by Enrique, then I have little doubts about PSG not willing to go the extra length to secure his signature.

I checked in Livescore there are has name of Ousmane Dembele in Barcelona player list but he still in the bench until 49th minutes match against  AC Milan on pre season match. But for second half have many changes but Ousmane Dembele still in the bench because Xav Hernandez not plays him yet. Based on offer bid from PSG seems not excited for Barcelona actually they have spent more than 100 million euro for sign Ousmane Dembele from Dortmund.

Actually signing Ousmane Dembele is request from Luis Henrique, he was know with Ousmane Dembele typical games play and for planning for replacing Mbappe position if done deal with Real Madrid.

Dembele is only listed because he was part of the squad that travelled for the tour, and he was also listed as being part of the substitutes by Barcelona official twitter handle pretty for the same reason, but if you watch the live game and saw the pregame lineup he wasn't listed amongst the list of substitutes by the club.

Here is a proof of the live match lineup and lists of substitutes for both teams.

The rumour is Mauricio Pochettino didn't too agree with this transfer because he want Chelsea to buy experience player although Ugochukwu have already playing with Rennes 60 times and became an Rennes key player but he still doubt about Ugochukwu quality that whether he can able to performing well with Chelsea or not and some people believe why Chelsea want to bought this player because they look for other alternative player instead of Moises Caicedo because seems Chelsea find it difficult to get Caicedo which is Brighton demanding high price and apparently Pochettino didn't have any plan to make Ugochukwu as Chelsea main squad for this season and rumour is Chelsea will loan Ugochukwu to Strasbourg for at least 1 season

The hottest news is about chelsea is strongly linked to the mbappe's transfer. PSG feels so desperate in selling mbappe as soon as possible. I do know that PSG wanna sell mbappe as soon as possible. The club is now exploring the possible way to get mbappe.
PSG has approached Chelsea to sign Mbappe from the club, but Chelsea has not disclosed the type of offer that Todd's club will present.. As far as i know if chelsea will able to offer some cash + some players owned by the club now.
I think that PSG can try to consider chelsea's offer. Chelsea wanna gives some of its players. I remember when ziyech was almost signed by PSG last season. It's now the time for PSG to think about that.
it's better to accept chelsea's offer rather than try to let mbappe leaves for free. Todd boehly already in contact with PSG's president regarding this.

90min understands Al-Khelaifi has now contacted Chelsea and their supremo Todd Boehly about the prospect of signing Mbappe in an attempt to push them towards making an offer.

Although I have some reservations, I happy with this deal. I see how fast  Chelsea because they know that if they didn't sign him, the competition from other Premier Leagues clubs will take him in a second. I haven't really watched this player in a live match but from football highlights, I would say that Ugochukwu has some very impressive skills and potential especially as a midfielder. Now the Chelsea has signed him, they have an alternative for the midfield position. He is a promising player. And to add, it is just as if Chelsea told Brighton that they're not desperate for Caicedo.

Saudis basically own all the teams, it may look like they do not actually own the teams but they do. I believe that they are trying to make a competitive league and put these players in all different teams but the money for it all comes from the same family.

I believe if they could, they could have just put all of them on just a single team and made an application to be on the UCL with these players, like an exception and if not they would win 30 out of 30 games and then win the arap champions league and just purely dominate all of that place, and if they are allowed to participate in Asian one, then win that one as well. Think about all the transfers that happened to Saudi league this season, a team made of best Saudi league players could definitely dominate Asia easily, and be fun to watch at UCL as well.

PSG seem to be getting confused now because they know that if they don't quickly get Mbappe out, the price will clearly affect especially when he can leave freely next season.
But even so it seems that the ego of PSG is still high instead of renegotiating with Madrid they actually made several talks with other clubs and even the Arab league they served.
Now will Mbappe also reject Chelsea again just like he did to the Arab club? Or maybe he will be at Chelsea and create a new rivalry with Haaland with Chelsea's ailing condition? This is worth waiting for.

Pochettino will be seeing his performance first. Chelsea bought him a long-term asset. It doesn't mean he will always be including in the main squad. Pochettino needs to monitor him before he will be able to play in the main squad.
Lesley may be loaned to another club. Chelsea's backup plan is to sign Lesley if they fail to get Caicedo or Valverde. That's the reason why the club must have also plan B caused by chelsea really needs defensive midfielder at this moment.

Sending lesley to the strabourg as loan gonna be the last option owned by chelsea but pochettino has not done yet with him. Let him prove himself in front of pochettino. Chelsea is not willing to pay 100 million to get caicedo from brighton.
The problem is chelsea sees valverde as a better option rather than caicedo if the team must pay 100 millions to get caicedo. Lesley is also still young and he needs a lot of experience.

PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi wants this situation resolved immediately, despite the fact that he is being pursued for sale since he is not on the same page as the Parisians. Kylian Mbappe is reportedly collecting a €60 million loyalty incentive for being a PSG player until this day. How does that sound? A lot of weird things are going on at Parc des Princes, notably with Kylian Mbappe. The club wants to trigger a bid to extend the contract of the club's most valued player, but he has turned down multiple bids, including an enticing massive offer from a Saudi club, which he recently rejected and remains reticent on his next phase.

I think even if there are rumors like that then you can be sure that Ugochukwu will not get a lot of playing minutes at Chelsea. I understand Chelsea are still hoping for Caceido, who is currently still in the negotiation stage and if the fee desired by Brighton is still too high, at least Chelsea can use Ugochukwu's services first. But if the deal between Chelsea and Brighton comes in at 100 million euros for Caciedo, then for sure Ugochukwu will go on loan first and I think that will make sense again. Moreover, Strasbourg is also a team that is currently held by Todd Boehly with its share ownership.

[Coyster]

Now the Chelsea has signed him, they have an alternative for the midfield position. He is a promising player. And to add, it is just as if Chelsea told Brighton that they're not desperate for Caicedo.

I wish that was true, at least for Chelsea's sake (because i think Brighton are being ridiculous with the price tag on Caicedo), but according to reliable sources, Chelsea are still in discussion with Brighton for Caicedo, so i guess they are willing to pay their asking price or at least something close to that, thus they are still indeed desperate to sign Caicedo.

Having said that, i think Caicedo is overvalued, and he isn't worth anything close to the price that Brighton are asking for, it will be in Chelsea's best interest to look away from that deal, Caicedo has only played well in the EPL for one season, thus it is not guarateed that he will continue to play well.

as I said before here when I said it looks like Chelsea wants to build a new era. I mean after the replacement of the old coach with the new one, he prefers to recruit young players and build new talent to get reliable players who are young enough to make long term player investments and hopefully Pochettino hopes and strategies will not be in vain.
even if you look at the details about Ugochukwu performance, his talent is not too good but a young player like this can become more talented if he is in the right team and a reliable coach so that Pochettino belief in signing Ugochukwu is very confident and there may be another purpose for signing this young player what is certain is that Pochettino goal is for the good of Chelsea.

I don't really know why fans are just not ok with Harry Maguire coming to their supported club. This man Maguire is a good defender but the thing there is that the atmosphere at Manchester United is not really healthy for him, I've said this before but with the likes of Chelsea and Tottenham who are are going for Maguire, if he make a move to either of those clubs I think you can do better after all he is a really good rock in the England national team and he hasn't made any crazy blunder for the 3 Lions. So I think he can do better at Chelsea if he goes there, I prefer him going to the bridge than Spurs.

For now, Dembele is still a Barcelona player. Earlier the player himself seemed to have asked Barcelona to allow him to negotiate with PSG and if Barcelona had turned him down, he could have terminated his contract and left for free, but so on Monday PSG activated Dembele's buyout for 50 million.

PSG seem to have a week to buy out Dembele and now the player is expected in Paris for a medical on Friday and if all goes well, then apparently on Friday and will officially announce the transfer.

[Pulsar77]

Bayern Munich are getting closer to finishing the signing of Harry Kane step by step. They have made their third offer to Tottenham which is near 100 million euros package. They are confident they will finish this agreement successfully soon. As Levy's hands seem to be tied from now on I think he would accept this deal finally. By saying his hands are tied I mean he was told to sell Kane this summer. Hence he should be doing this while there is a really favorable offer to accept.

I don't want to watch Kane playing for Tottenham anymore. He deserves to play for a bigger team and achieve titles before his career comes to an end.

[Queentoshi]

PSG seem to have a week to buy out Dembele and now the player is expected in Paris for a medical on Friday and if all goes well, then apparently on Friday and will officially announce the transfer.

From when this news started, I always knew that Dembele will end up in PSG, he is from France, and it will always be easy for the biggest French team to attract a French player back home. To Barcelona, this is not a move that the coach would have expected from Dembele, but there is nothing that can be done to stop the move at this time. He weakens Barcelona with Options as he leaves and will strengthen PSG. If he can avoid getting injured for the whole season, he can help the team now that Mbappe may not continue in the team or will not give his all and will play reluctantly for PSG if he stays the remaining of his contract.
