⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

But I think Salah could be likely to join a Saudi team after the end of this season. He will have one year to go on his contract with Liverpool in the end. What do you think about this?

I think you are correct, Al Ittihad started their bid for Salah a little too late, i think if they had approached Liverpool with this ridiculous amount early on in the transfer window, they would have sold Salah and used the money to replace him with a younger attacker, but right now they cannot sell Salah because they would be unable to replace him.

Having said that, if Al Ittihad are still interested next summer with ridiculous amounts such as this, Liverpool will sell him, and it would be good for all parties, Salaha would have only a year left on his current contract, and he will be 32 years old by then, a good time for Liverpool to let him go and still smile to the bank.

It hasn't been heard for a long time that Philippe Coutinho will now join the Qatari team Al-Duhail on loan from Aston Villa. An agreement has been reached and all of Coutinho's salaries during the loan period will be fully borne by Al-Duhail. Had received offers from Besiktas and Real Betis but Coutinho has rejected both and prefers to go to team qatar. I think there is nothing wrong with Coutinho accepting this offer, after all this is only on loan and later he will still be able to return to Aston Villa and continue competing in the EPL. Maybe at this stage of his career he wants to make more money and that is a fact that probably everyone already knows.

Good news, we don't want another Dele Alli situation in Beşiktaş. He's a finished player, if he accepted the offer that would be a waste of resources as money, time and foreign limit. We don't need star names with zero contribution to the team, we need team players. Good luck in Al-Duhail (first time I heard this club).

The amount of funds Saudi clubs are tossing around in the transfer market makes me wonder if there are any regulatory body ensuring fair play in the Saudi league. There seems to be no limit to transfer spendings, 200million plus is a huge sum for Liverpool to turn a blind eye to, even if Klopp is reluctant to sell Mo Salah, I am sure the club owners will be tempted to consider the offer.

I'm sure they will put some restrictions soon. Look what happened in China. They spent stupid amount of money and regulations came later. Saudi's have a lot of money but this is not sustainable. They made good advertisement for now. They should put some regulations for next seasons. They can't channel all petrol money to a football league. Paying 100-200 million Euro to stars is not a wise move in the long term.

I agree with what you said, if in the end they had approached when the summer transfer window opened with a 100 million bid for Salah it would have been enough to make him leave without the need to insist on bringing in a higher price and being rejected several times.
The reason is quite simple if Liverpool let Salah go at a big price then they can still look for new options even though it is risky but still possible to happen but for now it seems difficult, the EPL has closed the transfer of players and removing Salah is the same as leaving Liverpool's attack line empty and impacting on performance so it is quite natural if Liverpool think twice about this.

250 million euros? Mohammed Salah might be offered more than that if Al-Ittihad really needs him. However, I'm not sure whether Al-Ittihad can bring in Salah, because Liverpool still needs him to improve their performance, as last season Liverpool struggled to be in the big four of the standings. It would be a surprise if Liverpool agreed to this transfer. because the European transfer market has been closed, if Salah moves to a club at this time, then Liverpool will have to wait for the winter transfer window. For half the season, Liverpool's performance may be doubtful.

Jurgen kloop only said that Salah would not be touched by any team. This means that there is a big possibility that Liverpool will reject all offers that come to Salah and what's more, the transfer window will close in the next few hours because in my country it is already the 7th. I believe Salah will remain at Liverpool for this season because he is so comfortable after  he signed a new contract the previous season. I don't think Al ittihad can tempt Liverpool with this crazy offer.

Salah is a big enough attraction for the Saudi Arabian team, especially since he is from Egypt who is very familiar with Arabic nuances. However, Salah is still chasing big dreams in Europe rather than choosing to go to the Saudi Arabian league because he is still strong enough to compete at European level for now. Liverpool must reject this offer to maintain the balance of their strength this season.

But indeed in some rumors at this time Al Ittihad dared with 250 million although it must be difficult for Liverpool to give Salah in their current condition.
Klopp currently still really needs Salah to reverse the position when they were thrown into the Europa League last season. and 2 goals from 4 matches that Liverpool did actually I think Salah is still a vital player so Liverpool must think more whether Salah will be left alone or not.

Big money or performance, Liverpool must choose one of the two because indeed any choice taken will provide a risk.

I believe Salah will remain at Liverpool for this season because he is so comfortable after  he signed a new contract the previous season. I don't think Al ittihad can tempt Liverpool with this crazy offer.

Kloop understands that Liverpool needs Salah, he must stay in Liverpool. Sure, Liverpool won't accept any offer for Salah although there is an amazing offer from Saudi club. If Kloop still can't let Salah leaves, I believe Liverpool management will follow his decision. IMO, Salah will stay in Liverpool as long as he still can contribute well and has no bad issues there. So, it is very clear that Salah won't move anywhere this season. He will remain Liverpool until his contract expires in 2025.

Salah is a big enough attraction for the Saudi Arabian team, especially since he is from Egypt who is very familiar with Arabic nuances. However, Salah is still chasing big dreams in Europe rather than choosing to go to the Saudi Arabian league because he is still strong enough to compete at European level for now. Liverpool must reject this offer to maintain the balance of their strength this season.

Saudi clubs are always interested in Muslim players, no doubt about this. So, we can understand if they are interested in Salah. Moreover, Salah has a brilliant career, he is still shining in Liverpool, too. When Salah moves to Saudi, it must bring an advantage for SPL. Many football players will watch his career in SPL, especially his fans. However, Saudi clubs won't be easy to sign him because he is machine goal of Liverpool. They must try to keep Salah although they must refuse huge money.

I have even heard such speculation like Liverpool were willing to swap Darwin Nunez with Joao Felix before the end of the transfer window. I don't believe this honestly. Because there is no reason for Liverpool to be okay for such deal. What can their reasoning be for this? Joao Felix didn't show a better performance than Nunez in the recent times.

Besides Nunez is doing much better than last season for now. He has 2 goals and 1 assist in 4 EPL matches so far. They didn't sign any other striker even though they didn't have a reliable backup striker. Maybe Felix could have been signed on loan to have more alternatives.

However I guess Felix would have still chosen Barcelona instead as it was his dream team.  

Darwin Nunez is not a bad player and he also had a good performance during the time when he was playing for Benfica but unfortunately, when he moved to Liverpool he couldn't have a good performance anymore and this player failed to score goals in the games the fans expected him to score. Darwin Nunez was even close to leaving the team because of that bad performance but now he shows a better performance in this season.
However, that's too soon to judge about him and his performance in this season.

[Hyphen(-)]

Salah is still a target for Al-Ittihad? I thought that they would have given up on this transfer already after Liverpool's turning their first offer down. Because clearly Liverpool want to keep him this season no matter how much Al-Ittihad offer. Normally their latest offer is just insane which is around 200 million pounds. Salah's market value is way below this amount.

Al-Ittihad submitted their second bit of about 205 million pounds, and Liverpool management is willing to make decisions on whether to accept the offer or not because if they fail to sell him with this amount, due to his age, they cannot get such an offer from any team again, which is why they may consider letting him go since the player is also interested in leaving.

But I think Salah could be likely to join a Saudi team after the end of this season. He will have one year to go on his contract with Liverpool in the end. What do you think about this?

If Liverpool will sell him after this season then they should consider letting him go now because of the money which I think they will consider letting him go because he have interest in joining them.

[Velvet78]

Joao Felix is going to play for Barcelona by earning only 400k euros for one year. This is a really shocking amount to me honestly but he doesn't seem to be uncomfortable with this. Because he has captured an opportunity to play for his dream team and he won't be a part of a team in which he isn't wanted for a year least.

After that I don't know what will happen to Felix. Maybe he might be a permanent member of Barcelona depending on his performance. But I don't think Simeone will ever change his mind about him.

[bitpotter]

September 7 have been said to be the date for the final and deadline transfer for the Saudi League

Liverpool are still considering it, letting Salah leave is like shooting themselves in the foot - feet.

Sancho also has been linked with an exit from Man United, it is either he leaves before the deadline closes or sits fof the remaining months to leave Manchester United permanently.

The problem is that they let Salah Leave they can't replace his spot with a new player, they can only get a free agent or one from yougers Liverpool's teams.

It is a difficult option if Salah really goes to a Saudi league team. To be honest, it's a bit unfortunate if Salah leaves Liverpool, but on the other hand, it's a lot of money for Liverpool. Is it possible that Liverpool are ready for the problems that will arise later on the field? I don't think they are ready without Salah so it will be a difficult week to decide.

They cant get that offer elsewhere either way but its Salah we are talkin about and he has contributed alot for Liverpool. Its going to be a huge decision for Liverpool to sell him. First of all, its going to affect the team for sure and some fans would be triggered by this decision especially if this decision leads them to not finish off top 4 this season after losing out last season

For Mohammed Salah to give the Saudi club that came for his services the order to talk to Liverpool, he's already shown interest in playing in the Saudi League but what stopped him from moving to the Saudi League was because of the fact that Liverpool rejected the 150 millions pounds offer that was tabled.
From the reports I've read so far, the club is still preparing another deal that could rise to 200 million pounds and I don't think Liverpool will be able to reject such amount of money for a player that's above 30 years.

Coach Xavi has agreed to extend his contract with Barcelona until 2026 when the current contract only has 1 year left. Xavi helped Barca win La Liga last season. Xavi and his students also started strongly this season, winning 3 and drawing 1 in La Liga. The fact that he helps Barcelona prepare mentally well when the former star Messi leaves and that he manages the team well despite Barcelona's financial situation is a big plus. Now, I appreciate Barcelona this season. Xavi did very well. There is no reason to prevent the club from extending his contract.

Cool, This is good news for Barcelona, as Xavi Hernandez has extended his contract until July 30, 2026. Under the management of Xavi, Barcelona has made so much improvement in game tactics that they have also increased their victory ratio. If we look at the current Barcelona squads, there is no perfect player in the perfect place. Besides these players, there are Lawandoski, De Jong, Perdri, and Gavi. Despite the lack of players, Xavi has managed to perform well in previous seasons. Although to win a match, a club needs the perfect player to perform well at the perfect time, which Barcelona didn't have last season, But now it is hoped that the new player can bring some changes that make it easy for the coach to manage him well.
As well, I show the previous status of Xavi at Barcelona after the lack of well-known players.
Under the management of Xavi, Barcelona have won 35 matches in 53 appearances, drawn seven, and lost only 11. I hope this season they make some changes, especially in European competition.

A good coach does not really need so much big names to be able to win games,or build a proper team,all they need is players that are willing to sacrifice their all for the teams they are playing for.Xavi knows exactly what to do at any given time,and that is why he has achieved good result that people are still attested to.I think their main aim is the champions league troohy,and I believe that if they play well,they will be able to win the most games in the champions league.The coach should just try to implement
 a formation that will suits the players and make them want to win games.They have been playing well,and are scoring the number of goals they are supposed to score  with their main attacker infront.

I don't think if the case is closed yet because recently Jordan Henderson, the former palyer and captain of Liverpool said, Salah asked him about Saudi teams and their situation.
This means Salah is considering playing in the Saudi League as an option.

As Xavi said, Ansu Fati was loaned by Barcelona to Brighton for a season. the reason is, for the good of the player. Ansu Fati joined the transfer market this summer, with the option of no permanent purchase and only one season. Xavi emphasized that he needed a lot of minutes to play and it would be difficult to get with the Blaugrana because of the competition. Xavi hopes, he has great hopes, if Fati can shine at Brigthon, then he hopes Fati can return to Barcelona next season. in short, the purpose of his loan is so he can be successful again at Barcelona, ​​reported by Tribuana.

I think Xavi sounds selfish, if he really wanted Ansu Fati back, why did he still get so little playing time in the end? in other words Ansu Fati is playing at Brighton just to hone his skills and then Xavi will take it back. Isn't that selfish enough, I know it is their right because Ansu Fati contract at Barcelona is still long.

It sounds non sense to call him being so selfish. I meant how is it possible if you call him so selfish? It has a common thing when ansu performed so badly and unable to compete for the spot in the main squad.
He must put more efforts to be included in the starting line up. This is a common thing in the football when the coach was picking the best players in the club to be included on its starting eleven.
Fati gets little time to play due to the his quality. Barcelona had so many great attackers and ansu's level was not as good as those players. He goes to the brighton as a loan only.

I never stop thinking that Ansu Fati potential will not develop even if he returns, because he has to queue for a long time to get playing time. Waiting for the main squad to be injured and Ansu Fati remaining unchanged whether he goes to Brighton or not, he will remain a reserve player.

That's why he being loaned to the brighton. Xavi knew if he would be so difficult for him to get more experience to play in the main squad of barcelona. Xavi tried to develop fati by sending him to the brighton.
De zerbi was not as bad as you thought. Zerbi is confident that fati will harness and improve hi abilities while being a member of brighton's club, and zerbi eagerly anticipate his growth. Fati needs to gain various experiences in EPL first before he will be coming back to the barcelona.

However, that's too soon to judge about him and his performance in this season.

Nunez still has the full trust and a lot of support from Jurgen Kloop. I think Nunez is like Jurgen Kloop golden child because Jurgen Kloop thinks Nunez needs time to show his best qualities. In the previous match, we saw two goals from Nunez to lead Liverpool to win the match when they beat Newcastle United and also Nunez played well when Liverpool beat Aston Villa. I think this season Nunez will be able to make a big contribution to Liverpool. This season Liverpool will play in the European league and they are stronger candidates to become champions if you look at the depth of their strength.

Jurgen Klopp will explore more purpose for the player in the coming days, he's a key part of Klopp's projects this summer. Klopp was absolutely right when he signed the Uruguay international. Liverpool will undoubtedly continue to persuade Mohammed Salah to stay at Anfield; he's not going anywhere. Darwin Nez is an acknowledged Liverpool player that possesses all of the qualities required of a successful striker. Núñez has delivered for the Reds at difficult circumstances, netting a brace against Newcastle inother to assist a 10-man side win over the Magpies.

I never had any doubt of him Succeeding I'm the EPL when Liverpool got him for a deal worth €100m from Benfica last summer, though his performance last season wasn't what many fans wanted but I still thought he'll get better, judging from level of performance he had while at Benfica, what I love about the player is that he's ambitious and very eager to do better not minding whether he makes errors he'll get goals to cover up for his mistakes, his performance last season wasn't all bad just he was quite unlucky in front of the opponent's goal post sometimes and it made him miss alot of goals.
 But I think this season would be a lot better because he's started well so far and I think he's finally adapted to his team and understands his teammates well, he's netted two goals this season for them and I think he'll end up being the star player for the team if Salah decides to leave, probably by next summer because I don't think he'll be leaving the EPL this season, as stated by Jurgen Klopp.

It hasn't been heard for a long time that Philippe Coutinho will now join the Qatari team Al-Duhail on loan from Aston Villa. An agreement has been reached and all of Coutinho's salaries during the loan period will be fully borne by Al-Duhail. Had received offers from Besiktas and Real Betis but Coutinho has rejected both and prefers to go to team qatar. I think there is nothing wrong with Coutinho accepting this offer, after all this is only on loan and later he will still be able to return to Aston Villa and continue competing in the EPL. Maybe at this stage of his career he wants to make more money and that is a fact that probably everyone already knows.

Shame what happened to his career after he left Liverpool. It kind of fizzled out, he was a real star but for whatever reason it went downhill once he left Liverpool.

That's right, I still remember very well how he performed when he was at Liverpool and every time he dribbled the ball past his opponent, that's where Coutinho would take a hard, curved kick towards the opponent's corner post. That's when I was so excited waiting for his kick repeatedly when he was dribbling. Then, with such ability, Barcelona is very interested in signing him at a cost of 135 million euros and making him one of the most expensive players. But unfortunately after being with Barcelona, his performance declined so much that Barcelona had to loan him to other clubs from Bayern Munich to Aston Villa. Since then there have been no more significant developments, forcing Barcelona to sell him and finally Aston Villa made him permanent. Apart from all that, we certainly know that Coutinho's level is no longer equal to the current competitive competition, so we have to understand his decision.

LFC_Bitcoin, It is actually very sad how his career turned out after Liverpool. His Barcelona days were really bad.
After that, he actually never recovered, to be honest. He was once compared to the best of players.
But now that is just a distant memory. Coutinho was a great player. The only thing actually rememberable about himself is the past that he had with Liverpool.

I have fond memories of him, he was a really good player. I totally do not blame him if he feels like going there to earn really good money.

There is no reason for anyone to actually blame him or dislike him, just because he wants to go to a certain club to earn a little more money.
And I do not understand the people who actually do that. After all, he is a professional footballer. What do you expect?
