⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Well that's right, this can be a consideration for them. If they don't want to be regulated by FIFA then the only way is to create their own league, and also with the financial support they have can make a little freedom for them, and with that maybe in the end they will create their own league and without rules like FIFA. They have to consider it if things are to go the way they want.

What's the point of this? They already have their own tournament, which is even called the same thing, just for the African continent. Yes, they want to compete on par with European clubs, but that's not going to happen, the rules are written for everyone and have long been established... And I don't think independence from FIFA gives any advantage, they don't deny themselves anything as it is

well, honestly speaking, Klopp and all the others who declare that it is impossible to make a transfer market if Saudi teams get the players they want with stellar contracts, they should look closely at what happens in the Premier League, even the less famous teams make the transfer market with contracts Quite substantial, the TV rights in the Premier League give all teams the possibility of being able to operate on the market without major problems, and it has been like this for quite a few years! not from today. that's why the Premier League has more than a billion difference with the remaining European and non-European nations

Impossible for Premier Leauge?

Keep it real, Saudi is doing what the Premier League did in the last decade compared to the other leagues.

  With what I saw in the game today, Manchester United needs sign a Right back and another striker. Dalot isn't reliable at all, then we can't trust Rashord in the striking line. Manchester United also needs good midfielder Mason Mount is not also trusted, he lacks the stamina to play in this Manchester United squad.

I want to say that you did not watch the game at all; Dalot slotted in for the injured shaw; Rashford was involved inn all 3 of Manchester United goals and then somehow both players are to be replaced? Mount has had good performances before his injury too; What MUFC Needs is another midfielder to help out phase out the game and assert more control; thats why Amrabat is been pursued.

Lukaku basically said that next week he will be in Italy in Rome to sing with the team of Mou.

HE will be a great addition for the team but a bad move for his career.

for me if Klopp can make a wise decision I think Liverpool will benefit greatly from selling Salah to another club and definitely if they want to earn more profit sell to a saudi arabian club and use the money to get players who are more reliable and have more age young.
I have said this before in a EPL thread reply but sadly Klopp is not going to take that risk preferring to keep Salah rather than looking for new players and wasting time putting the chemistry together.

Do you think selling Salah will be a wise decision?  
IMO, keeping Salah on the club should be the wise decision.
Although Liverpool can get a huge amount of money by selling him, Liverpool may never got a proper replacement for him. They already made a mistake by selling Mane previously, it is stupid if they want make the same mistake by selling Salah. Klopp must understand well that when they lose Salah, they are probably difficult to look for the replacement. I believe Klopp won't take a big risk by selling Salah, it will drastically drop the performance of Liverpoo, too.

I think Salah is still very good at Liverpool, and it will be very difficult for management to find a suitable replacement if Salah does leave. So far Klopp has made it clear that he will reject any offer that comes in to Salah, because he wants to keep his players.

Agree. Salah has a crucial role in Liverpool and he has no bad issue until now. We can understand if Klopp prefer keeping him than selling him for a huge money. A super star like Salah will be always difficult to replace by other players. He has been a mainstay player on Liverpool squad for a long time. Klopp mustn't sell him as long as he still can show his best form.

Will he continue to be ridiculed when he is in Italy, when he meets Inter Milan he will be labeled as a traitor.
Being on loan and not a permanent player, Lukaku's career always hangs in any team his move was quite wrong before but it has happened then I guess when the loan is over maybe Roma don't need it anymore.

Lukaku is a good but not great player. To be honest I would he very disappointed if my team signed him. He isn’t good enough for the very top level. Inter would have maybe won the CL if he wasn’t playing. He blocked a goal bound effort and then missed an easy header himself.

I think he’s sometimes good against the really crap teams but just like when he was at Man Utd, you can’t rely on him to be the main man in a trophy winning team.

I'm sure Lukaku is so frustrated with the situation he's in that he's risking himself. Right now he is adrift so he really needs immediate help, but lucky for him, Rome offers himself as a temporary savior. In my opinion, Lukaku no longer needs to think about his past with Inter if he officially wears a Roma uniform, the Belgian striker only needs to prove his capacity as a striker who is still useful even though he will get extraordinary ridicule when he visits the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza later. I'm really looking forward to Lukaku returning to Serie A with AS Roma.

Philippe Coutinho, who we've talked about a lot here - after all, Barcelona paid Liverpool 135 million euros, but the player in production and never played at the high level that was expected again - will be the new player in Qatari soccer.
The 31-year-old will be Al-Duhail's new reinforcement
The price has not yet been revealed, nor the salary, but we'll probably have more news soon
Source

In last season's transfer window we talked a lot about Coutinho, he almost went to Brazil again but opted to stay in Europe, he probably wanted to try once again to stay at Aston Villa and try to be a starter, but he didn't succeed once again
I bet he'll play a few years there and then return to Brazil to end his career with Vasco da Gama

[FanEagle]

I understand that Joao Felix is basically not wanting to leave and that's understandable, but that doesn't mean that team doesn't have the right to keep him neither, if there are no offers that either the team or the player likes then they will just keep him. He will probably play because why wouldn't he, sitting out a whole season until you are sold is not a reasonable move and he will be getting much worse without playing as well.

So, either they sell him (or loan him out) to Barcelona and he agrees to the move and he gets to play where he wants to, or he will stay and just try to be happy enough to play, doesn't need to like the situation, he just needs to make sure that they are doing as well as they possibly could.

[SatoPrincess]

The contract offer to him by the Saudi team is really great. They are offering €240m for 3 years.

Klopp has made it clear that he wants to keep Salah. I think he is right in his insistence because if Salah leaves the team, Liverpool will become a very ordinary team. I think Liverpool should keep him for at least one more year. If they let him go without signing a good striker to replace him, things could get even worse. On the other hand, I think Salah might be unhappy at Liverpool because last season Liverpool looked like a mid-table team with no target. Also, they didn't make any signings to make a mark this season. So, this season they can play as a team with no target, just like last season.

Liverpool certainly don't want to make another blunder after what they did before when they sold Sadio Mane to Bayern Munich. Moreover, this season Liverpool have lost many of their core players so that Liverpool will definitely reject any offer that comes for Salah.

Salah has earned a guaranteed place in the depths of the Liverpool squad. He cannot be replaced by anyone because Salah has made all the major contributions to Liverpool. I think that in updating the rumors about Salah transfer, there is already an answer, that is, Liverpool will not open any discussions with any team that wants to recruit Salah. Which means Liverpool is closing the door for other teams to recruit Salah in this transfer market.

Even if Liverpool were considering selling Mo Salah this summer it is already very late into the transfer window in few days time the window will shut down so there is too little time for Liverpool to sort out a good replacement if they want to sell Salah. There is no way Liverpool are selling Salah this summer, he is too important to the club especially now that they are fighting to get back to top four position.

Intermilan was always aware even though sanchez was old enough, but his quality is still remain the same. It can be known from his stat in the league 1. Sanchez was helping marseilla a lot last season by scoring 14 goals alone.
Intermilan is always open for its former player although these players are still having big potentials. It is important to remind you that Inter Milan is well-known for their tendency to recruit older players.

The club was seeing from the quality of players and age doesn't matter for intermilan. That proves that how dzeko was still able contributing a lot last season.
Glad to see that sanchez's hope is coming true again. He will be very happy playing in intermilan as it has become his hope to come back in serie a again.

Inter Milan is a club known for picking experience and reputation as a criteria for selecting players to be signed for the club and Alexis Sanchez obviously fits in. His time at Arsenal was very successful and even after joining Marseille he didn’t stop scoring that is why inter Milan are back again for his services.

[Furious 7]

I still don't think it will happen this summer but it's possible for the future.
Liverpool will still retain Salah especially with the transfer closure that will occur in a few days amak will be a loss when letting Salah leave without a replacement there.
Liverpool know they will still be very difficult in attack and when letting Salah just leave then it is tantamount to suicide for Liverpool so with some considerations like this I believe Salah will still stay now.

But with the ambition and money of the Arab club actually for the winter if Al-Ittihad still wants Salah then the possibility of happening is still there but for the summer I'm not sure it happens.

today i read this about salah:

Klopp announces that Mo Salah won’t leave as he’s considered “not for sale”

source: today i read this about salah:

salah is 31 years old and in liverpool he has a guaranteed place, and liverpool is a very big team still has the potential to win more titles in the coming seasons, so salah with the good salary he earns in liverpool has no reason to leave the team and go play in saudi arabia, it is true that in saudi arabia he would earn more money and it would also be easier for him to adapt, but the problem is that nothing guaranteed that he would stay in saudi arabia for more than 3 years earn the same salary, because from what I see the Arabs have been offering short-term contracts, something like 2 years to 3 years at the most, maybe the strategy of these Arabs is that the 3-year contract is a contract for a lot of money

but after 3 years they will make another contract with a lower salary, so the player will no longer have a choice and will have to accept it because he will not be able to play again in a big team in europe, so the best option for salah is for him to stay in europe until he was 35 or 36 years old and when it was time to retire he could go to play in arabia, ronaldo made a good choice because he is at retirement age.

This is a good choice made by Liverpool although there is a big rejection of money here, but I think keeping Salah is a worthy thing now because in the end Salah will be a player who will contribute to them this season especially for their attack.
Despite his age, he still deserves to be the main player and I think it will be very good if Liverpool and Klopp decide on that.

AS Roma make formal approach with Chelsea to sign Romelu Lukaku

source: https://www.instagram.com/p/CwXmTT7Iarl/

I hope Roma can bring Lukaku, in my opinion Roma's attack would be very strong with Lukaku, I saw in the Portuguese newspapers that Roma fans want Lukako, if this is true it would show that Roma fans more more smart ( sorry for saying that ) that those juventus fans who were making protests against lukaku go to juventus. Roma manage to get good players always at a good price, they know they have little budget for signings and that's why they manage to negotiate well. in this part, chelsea and manchester united should learn from roma how to do good business

Lukaku can still go anywhere now because he is currently in a difficult condition at Chelsea so with this in mind I think the decision to leave is getting bigger and the opportunity to Rome is also quite open.
But the problem for Serie A clubs is still the same as before, are they able to provide a clause that matches Chelsea's wishes? Looking at the current conditions, especially for finances, I think it will still be very difficult for Roma.

Impossible for Premier Leauge?

Keep it real, Saudi is doing what the Premier League did in the last decade compared to the other leagues.

I keep on tell people this, the Premier League clubs do not need to panic or even get angry over the spending of the Saudi league to acquire players because they have done the same and are still doing it. You will see a player in a club that tops their league coming to the premier league to a mid table team, all this were done with the influence of money. Barcelona and Madrid also lured more players through this process and now they are complain against Saudi which is not.

Lukaku basically said that next week he will be in Italy in Rome to sing with the team of Mou.

HE will be a great addition for the team but a bad move for his career.

He doesn’t have much of a choice to remain in Europe, more over it will definitely be a hard decision with Inter Milan fan’s disappointed in his decision already. But one thing I see about this move is a perfect reunion between the special one and big rom. Last time out the relationship wasn’t that too good but if Lukaku truly wants to rediscover his form then Mourinho is the best answer to that. Mourinho always prefers striker like him, a fighter and passionate attackers

Damn this is one of those players that I will never fully understand. He was hyped so much and everyone thought that he is going to be the next Messi, but he is so bad that no big club would actually want him. I am still puzzled how a player with so much talent and also so much trust from literally everyone can produce bad results like that. There have been players that were too expensive, but Felix is one of the worst regarding price to score ratio. He is not beneficial to any team. It's unbelievable.

In some news, there seems to be a strong statement about Lukaku going to Roma and it is getting closer to Lukaku's statement that he will go to sign a contract.
But until now I do not know what the agreement made by these two clubs and regarding the price it seems that this is still a little difficult to divulge but certainly if Lukaku will really be in Rome then this could be a good decision for him.
Lukaky's fate is currently uncertain and indeed he also has no place at Chelsea so leaving Stampord Bridge (again) is the right thing.
We are likely to see the reunion of Mou and Lukaku, hopefully this time the reunion will give positive results unlike before.

[Velvet78]

Felix wants to leave immediately but there is really no other European team interested in signing him permanently. There would be maybe if Atletico Madrid are okay about a loan deal as well. For example the team he wants to go to the most is Barcelona but this isn't likely to happen now. I don't think Barcelona can sign him on a permanent deal without having issues with FFP.

Maybe a loan deal with a buy option might be a solution for this. Barcelona would also make use of this transfer actually because they don't have any other natural striker as Lewandowski's backup now. If he gets injured it is a big problem.

[Leviathan.007]

Even after all we heard from Kroos and Ancelotti as well as some other players and coaches, they said a player at this age like Gabri Veiga should join the Saudi teams, but this Spanish gem officially joined Al Ahli and he is going to play for this teams the Saudi league while he could play for top teams in Europe for years.
He signed a four-year contract and for a 21.5m salary.

[Asiska02]

Saudi Arabia want to maximize everything they have since their league currently have no Financial Fair Play Regulations (FFP) and salary cap rules, so they can spend as much as they can. The problem will arise if Saudi Professional League get regulated by FIFA, the owner will need to think carefully to spend the money,

The best is Saudi Arabia shouldn't join UCL, so they won't get regulated by FIFA, they should create their own league and invite other big leagues to join.

Why would Saudi Arabia want to join UCL? Will they be allowed to join if they show interest in participating? Why I’m curious is that Saudi Arabia is an Asian continent and they have their own AFC champions league just like the European Champions League. Is the champions league you’re talking about like an intercontinent league? I just don’t think this will make more sense. I smell the invitation of them will be for another purpose and not for the fun of the game. The European football won’t want to lose their prestige this easily to the Saudi league.

Angelo Gabriel is called the Wonderkids from Brazil, but he who still lacks experience is quite caught off guard when Chelsea imposes a heavy task on the front lines. I agree with you, this is probably a very stupid decision. It's just that compared to Mudryk, I think Angelo Gabriel can be much better. lol

Mudryk is still a question mark player and his contribution at Chelsea is also unclear, scored a goal? okay my fingers can still count it.

If Angelo Gabriel have joined Chelsea to help in the attack or to replace a player in that position, that’s when I will call it not a decision they’ve taken. Since he’s still a young player, they can build him m until he’s fit for playing matches.
Mudryk should be one of the worst signings of Chelsea in the recent times. He hasn’t been able to do anything spectacular for the team since he joined and has not also been productive much in the attack. If he can improve after his injury then no problem but if he can’t, he should be loaned or sold out just like other players when Pochettino joined.

Because of fan pressure, Inter Milan and Juventus clubs refused to negotiate with Lukaku. He is outside Chelsea's plans and is on the transfer or loan list. That says Chelsea doesn't need him and wants to sell him. The fact that he has yet to receive any objections from fans about coming to Roma is good news.
Roma will probably pay 100% of Lukaku's salary to convince Chelsea to agree. I believe Lukaku going to Roma will help Mourinho.

[Bananington]

He hasn’t been able to do anything spectacular for the team since he joined and has not also been productive much in the attack. If he can improve after his injury then no problem but if he can’t, he should be loaned or sold out just like other players when Pochettino joined.

Mudryk is a good player, but the bad woes of Chelsea has affected his performance. Had Mudryk moved to a club like Arsenal he would have been forced to be in performance, but since he decided that he it was Chelsea, he has to deal with the result of his choices. Mudryk will bounce back from injury, after he recovers. If he has enough playing time, he will surely be able to perform at the level he is expected. I trust in the abilities of Mudryk, he just needs some more time, he will surely prove his worth.
