⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Rasmus Hojlund is Manchester United's fourth most expensive signing and yesterday he was introduced to the Old Trafford public when Manchester United played a pre-season match against Lens. Seeing the names above it, such as Pogba, Antony, Maguire, all of them seemed unsatisfactory. On the other hand, will Rasmus Hojlund be able to have a real impact for Manchester United at such a big price? Everything is still a question because so many expensive recruits from Manchester United have ended in floops and not as expected. Hopefully he can complete what Manchester United needs later.

Yes, Manchester United had a lot of problems, especially with Pogba. Besides, mistakes made by Maguire have caused the team to lose a lot of points in the past. I can't say anything about Anthony because I liked his performance last year. I wonder if Hojlund has all the qualities to be a striker to play in the starting 11 of the Manchester United squad? He is very young and has not played enough games even in Atalanta. Manchester United took a big risk in this respect, I hope they don't regret it.

There are rumors in the Turkish press and Corriere della Sera that Mourinho wants Dries Mertens (https://romapress.net/dries-mertens-linked-with-roma-in-serie-a-return-rumors/). He scored a great Puskas goal in Galatasaray's match against Zalgiris (You can watch it here https://youtu.be/WjF_BcYeKBo?t=150, I highly recommend it). Dries Mertens is 36 years old but his football mind is still very young. I don't think the rumors are true but if he transfers to Roma, Galatasaray will definitely be the losers.

What an awful choice of as roma. I thought that if roma needs young striker. Dries martens were too old to be used as a striker. He has different physic compared with the young striker. It's the worst choice from asroma to buy him. I hope it will never happen.
I just aware if the situation in roma was not so good. This club can be called as a poor club.

Jose Mourinho has reportedly contacted once more Spanish striker Alvaro Morata.

The Atletico Madrid attacker remains Mourinho’s first choice to replace Tammy Abraham for the upcoming season.

For the Special One, Morata brings the necessary quality and experience to lead Roma’s front line.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Mourinho called Morata on Thursday and asked him to be patient as Roma will try one more time to approach Atletico Madrid once the sale of Roger Ibanez to Nottingham Forest is realized.

The capital club are currently evaluating Nottingham’s proposal for Ibanez. The sale could provide Roma with enough cash to activate Morata’s release clause.

It has been reported that if jose already contacted morata but i can see that how hard jose tried to convince morata waiting for roma's offer but this club is not even hearing its coach. The club needs to sell ibanez first before it will be able to send a bid for morata.
I wonder how poor this club is?

I say big no for dries mertens. He is too old to be a striker in serie a.

There is no confusion for Harry Kane leaving Tottenham in this transfer window. Because Harry Kane had agreed verbally to join Bayern Munich but was hampered because Levy did not accept the offer submitted by Bayern Munich in the two previous offers.

Thus the final offer submitted by Bayern Munich will be an answer that will determine Harry Kane future because if Levy rejects the offer Harry Kane will remain with Tottenham next season. Apart from that there were no offers from other teams who wanted to recruit Harry kane apart from Bayern munich. Levy could make the decision that is best for both parties in the coming days.

Levy still doesn't want to let Harry Kane go for the price that was previously proposed and Bayern Munich also intend to make a third offer for Harry Kane, so that will be the last offer that comes in for Tottenham and of course this is the last chance for Harry Kane to pursue his dream of playing in the league others who can give a title or for his career. Tottenham has been his home for so long, but so far they haven't won a single title and this reason was enough for Harry Kane to move to Bayern Munich.

If Levy still insists on keeping Harry Kane then next season he will be a free agent and will be a player who can't make money for him. In the third submission there seems to be hope for Bayern Munich to get Harry Kane and I think Harry Kane is more suitable to play for Bayern Munich.

there is no need to doubt the players who were successfully recruited by Erik Ten Hag because he definitely has good quality and I see recent history in Euro qualifiers Hojlund managed to score 6 out of 4 matches this is proof that Rasmus Hojlund has good performance to be a player Man United starter so naturally the transfer fee is very expensive because he is still young and has a bright future talent.
although some people doubt the talent he has we will see this season and Rasmus Hojlund will prove it if he can make a good contribution to Man United.

It is such an unbelievable thing that Maguire has been the most expensive player until Gvardiol is being transferred. There is like a huge gap between Maguire and him in terms of strength and defensive skills. Despite Gvardiol's being a very young defender I would favour him against Maguire from the beginning to the end.

Maguire has turned out to be an unworthy transfer for his fee and Manchester United are trying to get rid of him these days. Most probably they will manage to loan him in the worst case scenario. On the other hand I expect Gvardiol to prove his worth nicely for Manchester City and become one of the best defenders of the Premier League.

Pep Guardiola understands exactly what he needs to sign, and he is going after the most important thing to him this summer. Comparing Josko Gvardiol to Harry Maguire seems completely inappropriate. Harry Maguire was the most expensive defender in the world, ranking first on the list with €87 million, but everything changed when Manchester City delivered a €90 million bid for RB Leipzig defender Josko Gvardiol. He's one of the toughest defenders a striker would face on the field, therefore I'd encourage him to do an excellent task for the team.

Manchester City is now making the most suitable transfers for the region and ending the transfer season. They see the shortcomings of a great team and only recruit players to that region, which is a very clever transfer policy. Manchester City don't want to spoil their already great squad. In my opinion, Gvardiol was the best defender to come to Manchester City, and once he achieves this harmony, Manchester City will be undefeated again.

It's a big challenge for Hojlund after making the move to United. Remember he is a first team striker so lot of expectations will be from him. Right now we can't determine if he is good bad as PL is on different level and it's not easy at first for anybody. There are lot of players in Man U so competition will also be high. At times when Hojlund doesn't performs as expected, Ten Haag might start Rashford or Martial so there will be lot of pressure on him right now.

Manchester City will continue dominate the English premier league as long as they got everything they need. Pep Guardiola is the master planner, he knows basically how to handle things in the club and the quality players he keen on signing from the transfer window. The new defender coming, Josko Gvardiol would prove supremacy in the league only if he adapts smoothly in manchester city pattern of game. It would be difficult for the Croatian at first, but as he becomes a regular starter under Pep Guardiola project, he will match-up the strength and expectations.

Signing and unveiling players and even making them see that they're the highest signed player isn't the thing at the moment. One thing Man UTD need to ask them selves is "can this player do better as expected"? They can sign from anywhere but can the player live up to expectation? Manchester United is not a small team that just go into the season without getting any trophy, as a player signed with such amount much is expected.

With the introduction of Rasmus Hojlund I don't see much from this guy, like he can't do half of what he did while playing for Atalanta. Introducing a player on the day you best goalkeeper was humiliated, this is going to be bad for UTD this season.

When Manchester United has decide to bought Maguire from Leicester his status as one of the best defender on Premier League that Maguire performance was very stable at that time and the result is he can bringing Leicester to gets Premier League trophy so that's why Manchester United were dare to buy him at expensive price and broke the record as the most expensive defender at Premier league because they hopes Maguire will be able to displayed fantastic performance just like he showed at Leicester

And actually first season for Maguire was run well that he was being an Ole Gunnar Solskjaer key player but i don't know why now Maguire is playing just like a mediocre player and Manchester United are really wasting their money to buy him and this summer Maguire is one of the most difficult player to sell because not many teams are interested in buying him although Manchester United has attempts to sell him with cheap price but still lack of interest for him

Correct, only Fernandez and Casemiro are worth to sign among other expensive players, Antony and Mount are still questionable.

Hojlund, a wonder kid where many people said he's a baby Haaland, it's so funny to hear that

I think Hojlund will ended up like Mudryk where he have played many matches, but he can't score any goal even he already play for full time. Lol I see his current status is lack of fitness, so he will not play in the friendly match against Athletic Club. We might see his first debut in the first Premier league match against Wolves.

There is an interesting story behind the Maguire story as well. This story summarizes Manchester United on some transfers at the same time.

Back in the day when they were interested in signing Maguire Leicester were hoping to get some good sum of money for him. However they were never expecting Manchester United to offer a huge sum like 87m euros. Leicester officials couldn't believe it was real and they accepted the offer quickly of course. They were so happy with making an enormous profit in this transfer.

Manchester United transfer for Amrabat will most likely happen. That's why I can't believe that other teams that have an interest in Amrabat will be successful. He seems eager to join the Manchester United team. The obstacle to this transfer will be the realization of the transfer of Fred and De Beek. I'm sure we'll be watching Amrabat with Red Devils soon.

Amrabat is a good player and he wants to leave Italy. The Premiere League would be a great opportunity for him. But Manchester United has now signed a nice deal, not with Amrabat, but with Rasmus Hojlund. He also left Italy, for Atalanta Bergamo a good deal. Bought 12 months ago for 20 million euros and now sold for 75 million euros and there are even bonuses that could rise to 83 million euros. Rasmus is a great talent and he is going to be one of the best goal scorers in Denmark.

Just as I expected Manchester City are looking for selling Laporte now as they have managed to complete the signing of Gvardiol finally. There have been only Saudi teams interested lately so I wonder if Laporte wants to join them now. I think he can think of joining in a time that these teams are signing nearly every player they would like.

While there is no offer from any European team why would he reject Saudi teams?

Manchester City can't get much money for his transfer fee though as his current value is 25 million euros. But the player would surely get an incredible contract offer.

This question is real and demands substantial thought. Manchester United's fourth-most costly signing is Rasmus Hojlund, right? He's in the same league as Pogba, Antony, and Maguire, who were unsatisfactory. How does it all make sense? Thats the issue.

Hojlund is young. He lacks experience and just played a few games at Atalanta. Thats real. Manchester United risked a lot, right? The risk they took with this young, potential player is a significant question mark.

On one hand, Manchester United seems to be struggling, with players making mistakes and losing points. This additional feature may be worth the risk. Rasmus Hojlund may be another pricey flop or a lasting influence at such a high price. Lets hope, though.

Im not seeing a better choice other than accepting bayern's final bid for kane. Bayern has been fulfilling what already wanted by totenham and it will be so stupid if totenham doesn't let him go out from the club.

That is our opinion normally but Tottenham must have other reasons why they want to keep Harry Kane for example they have yet to find a suitable player to replace Kane, as we know Harry Kane is their mainstay player, without Harry Kane maybe Tottenham can't compete in the top 10 of the standings. Really a difficult choice for Tottenham, they have to make a decision if they don't want to lose income from the release. I've just seen the latest news that Bayern Munich have made a offer of €120 million for Harry Kane, there should be no way for Tottenham to ignore this offer with 120 million Tottenham can find new players easily and younger.

Tottenham seem worried if they play without their spearhead, which has been an inseparable part of the club's performance. I call Tottenham a little cowardly and not ready for new changes, this is precisely where Tottenham opportunity to build a sustainable team is. Kane's age is getting older so over time Tottenham will still lose him, if not now then when are we waiting for the right moment to become a stable team?

The point is that Tottenham were too comfortable and forgot to prepare a proper replacement, so we know their strong reasons for keeping Kane. Whereas in the end Kane was still discarded and would be replaced, now instead of waiting for the time to arrive Harry Kane should go find a place where he can still be made an ideal player.

The rumors about Harry Kane are still not finished until now, I don't know exactly what Tottenham want, they give a price clause to any club that wants Kane but on the other hand they also want to keep him. I don't understand this. Bayern Munich have been exhausted in this deal, although Tuchel has experienced several rejections from Tottenham but they have not given up, they have sold Sadio mane to be their financial solution. My point is to increase their finances in order to meet the price of Tottenham, and now they have got the money. True, now Bayern Munich have increased the amount of the offer to them for Kane with 120 million, in my opinion Tottenham have no more reason to reject such a high offer, they must be able to get out of the comfort zone. Releasing Harry Kane and then they can buy another striker who has the quality like Kane for under 120 million is possible. With 120 million I think they can get two players at once.

So true. In fact, if Tottenham accepts a third offer from Bayern on this one, the club will benefit financially. And in fact, with that money, they really don't need to worry about having trouble finding good players who can become attackers at Spurs. But I also understand that it is impossible to get a striker as good as Kane in this transfer market, there really isn't much time left.

Everyone still doesn't understand what Tottenham will choose in this case. But it seems everyone other than the Tottenham fans are definitely in favor of letting Harry Kane go. Because everyone wants to see this talented player get a better career at a better club. And I think if Spurs turn down the offer on this one then I feel that they have squandered a golden opportunity to get a high transfer fee for Kane's release. Because next season Kane will leave on a free transfer if Spurs don't let him go this season.

Hojlund is young. He lacks experience and just played a few games at Atalanta. Thats real. Manchester United risked a lot, right? The risk they took with this young, potential player is a significant question mark.

From which side do you want to get answers? age or playing experience.
Okay. We do not yet know how the story of Hojlund's journey in England will continue because he just joined Manchester United. As long as he joined Atalanta from Strum Graz (a team from Austria), did anyone predict that Hojlund would be the target of a big club with a large fee offer like that of Manchester United? In Serie A with Atalanta, he only played 34 matches and collected 10 goals during one season, but those who are interested in getting him are not only Manchester United, but there are several other big teams. What did they see in the figure of Rasmus Hojlund?

In terms of age, Hojlund is still very young. The age of 20 is the beginning of a golden age for a professional soccer player.
Take the example of James Rodriguez who looks stunning with the Colombian national team. After the World Cup tournament, James became the target of many big European clubs even though he was finally officially acquired by Real Madrid at that time. The question is, during one season with AS Monaco which only recorded 38 matches and 10 goals, why did he deserve such a large transfer fee and then what was his career while playing for Real Madrid.
Hopefully you still remember some of the transfers of players at a young age at other clubs.

Just as I expected Manchester City are looking for selling Laporte now as they have managed to complete the signing of Gvardiol finally. There have been only Saudi teams interested lately so I wonder if Laporte wants to join them now. I think he can think of joining in a time that these teams are signing nearly every player they would like.

While there is no offer from any European team why would he reject Saudi teams?

Manchester City will look to cash in on Aymeric Laporte after completing a £77million deal for Croatian centre-back Josko Gvardiol.
Arsenal, Tottenham and Aston Villa have all been monitoring Laporte’s situation at the Etihad since Pep Guardiola turned more towards playing Nathan Ake and Manuel Akanji on the left side of his defence last season.

https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/mancity-aymeric-laporte-josko-gvardiol-30637049
You shall not feel worry about that. There have been some EPL clubs already monitored him. Seeing manchester city wanna try to let him go is good news for totenham, westham or even arsenal at this moment. These clubs can start to bid on him right now as city already opened its door to sell laporte as soon as possible. Since city had josko and laporte is useless in the club. He will never get a spot in the main squad anymore. It's good to let him go and join in another clubr ather than force him to stay even longer.
There appears to be no disadvantage for Laporte, as he will be able to play in the primary team upon leaving Manchester City. Pep is also thinking about his future too.

Manchester City can't get much money for his transfer fee though as his current value is 25 million euros. But the player would surely get an incredible contract offer.  

Since laporte is not be included in pep's plan and no point to hold him in the club. It's better to cash him out rather than try to keep him. Manchester city needs to deal with FFP too. Selling laporte gonna be one of best way to decrease its salary expensive for its players.

This player with the center back position does have a sizable salary plus he still has a contract for 2 more seasons and if you look at it in terms of appearance Laporte also doesn't seem to be playing significantly.
If Pep can sell him, maybe the Manchester City club's expenses will be more stable or even it will still be possible to take other players who are better, after all he is almost 30 years old, even though he can still be counted on as a defender.
But maybe Pep also has other goals so that Laporte is still in defense until his contract expires.
