⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[JeffBrad12]

Klopp was offered the manager position at Germany national team but he rejected this offer. I'm not surprised with his answer though because there isn't any reason for him to leave Liverpool right now. He wouldn't like to manage 2 teams at the same time either. I think he has done the right thing for himself.

Klopp is still having his own commitment for liverpool. He will not leave from the club if FSG would not kick him from the club.
It's caused by kloop is feeling so good in helping liverpool to compete with another top club in english. Klopp is still in the process bringing liverpool back to the its prime era again.
That's probably the reason why klopp has been rejecting an offer to be a new coach for german national club.

Because Liverpool should be his main concern right now. The previous season didn't went well for Liverpool you know. They are really expected to make a serious improvement this season like a fight for the league title. He wouldn't like to increase his workload now.

Liverpool is coming with a promising performance at this moment. Liverpool played so badly last season but klopp should have learned a lot from his previous mistake.
There are some improvements happening with liverpool at this moment but liverpool without salah was nothing. Glad to see kloop is trying to keep his commitment.

To be fair Nagelsmann is still free agent, and I believe that he would be the biggest name they could get. That dude is AMAZING at picking players, I would hire him as head/chief scout for any team in the world and there won't be any better, BUT he is not a tactician. Considering nation teal is mostly checking every single german player and picking the right ones, he could be a great asset to them for sure. I believe that he is young enough to do this for at least 20+ years as well if he could get some success. I hope that they do fine, there are talks about our teams (Turkiye) Kuntz being linked, I personally would love that to happen so we can get rid of him, but it would be terrible for germany.

Julian Nagelsmann is currently front-runner for this spot with Jürgen Klopp is not interested right now and things clearly favoring because Bayern Munich is also ready to allow him for this job as he is still under contract with them until 2026 but with few demands which needs to fill before this all and as things right now going most chances he will accept this all and DFB needs to have agreed on personal terms as well which allow them to have Julian Nagelsmann as new coach which is surely good for the German team because he understands things on better way and surely can do better job in coming years.

With eight candidates are shortlisted but still he is front-runner and can go through but still this all is too early but after having recommendation from the Bayern Munich most chances he will be in for this job with how things will work it's fascinating to watch in coming months.

The contract extension was agreed for the next 3 years and Bernando Silva still has a big chance of saving the title again for the next season with Manchester City without any worries about him losing the achievements he has achieved so far with Manchester City.
Hopefully in the future there will be no loans made with Barcelona because that will only worsen his image as a great player with a high nominal salary.

Bernando Silva role is not much different from Kevin De Bruyne, so it was not surprising when he received the news that his contract had been extended. Manchester City will definitely not let Bernando Silva go away despite his hugely influential contribution. Even if Barcelona has to make offer after offer, I'm sure it won't be able to reach another agreement. Manchester City's decision is the right one and I agree with this.

Bernardo Silva was the top target of Barca and PSG in the summer of 2023, but in the end, he decided to extend his contract with Man City. Barcelona's financial difficulties made the transfer impossible. If Silva continues to win titles with Man City this season, the possibility of him coming to Camp Nou in the summer of 2024 is exceptionally high. Because I see that Silva has wanted to join Barcelona for a long time, the reason he wants to leave Man City is difficult to understand when he is flourishing with the team.

Well true, Barcelona looks more serious in the hunt for Bernardo Silva than PSG in my opinion, but well as we know their finances are very weak, and also I heard Barcelona will sell some of its players to increase their finances as well as maybe one of the goals so that they can meet the clause set by Manchester City for the release of Bernardo Silva, but well I'm sure it's just a rumor because after all Guardiola will not sell players who greatly contribute to all the victories of his squad, including the many trophies that have been won by this squad so that it is named the defending Premier League champion. Especially now that Silva has managed to extend his new contract there, it is very unlikely that he will leave unless Barcelona patiently waits for him while collecting a lot of money on standby if Guardiola changes his mind later.

Well I also understand Silva really wants to play with Barcelona, but what can be made for now Barcelona itself does not have the ability to make a deal for this player. But yes you have a point too, it is possible that when Silva's contract expires he will decide to go to Barcelona to look for new challenges, because he has achieved almost everything with Manchester City, and it is also very possible that he will leave as a free agent if Barcelona's finances are still not recovering when his contract expires.

Is acquiring Oshimen the right move?

It's not the right move for chelsea. The club doesn't even need him at this moment and im also feeling doubt if napoli was willing to sell osimhen to another club while the club has stated if osimhen was not for sale.
I don't even think chelsea needs to acquire him from napoli. It's impossible to happen. Napoli was also putting 500 millions wall for osimhen as well. It's very impossible for chelsea to pay such amount for napoli.

Are there other aspects beyond the attacking line that are influencing Chelsea's current performance?

Mid was not so good. Caicedo was also making some blunders in the previous matches. The attacking line is still become the main problem for chelsea but another side's impact is still there.
Chelsea has become a club with most passes and shoots since first week of EPL but this club is lack of proper finishing at this moment. Chelsea needs a striker but this is not a an urgent need by chelsea.

Pochettino needs to change its strategy for chelsea in upcoming match.

Bernardo Silva was the top target of Barca and PSG in the summer of 2023, but in the end, he decided to extend his contract with Man City.

Because I see that Silva has wanted to join Barcelona for a long time, the reason he wants to leave Man City is difficult to understand when he is flourishing with the team.

Bernardo Silva has been on Barcelona's list of target players for the 2022/2023 season, but unfortunately, at that time Pep did not want his player to leave because he was still really needed. After the 2022/2023 competition ended, Barcelona experienced financial problems in bringing Silva to Camp Nou. In the end, there's not much Barcelona can do apart from recruiting cheap but established players. Then, PSG came with a proposal to bring Bernardo to the Parc del Princess with a cash offer. However, both the club and the player rejected the offer. in fact, Silva really wants to play with Barcelona.

Unfortunately, Silva's intention to play for Barcelona had to be lost because Barca was having financial problems. In the end, Bernardo Silva signed a contract extension, ending rumors about his future.
Referring as quoted by Tribal Football, reporting, an agreement could finally occur next summer. however, after insisting on a £50m release clause in his new contract. Thus, there is a possibility for Silva that he will decide on a move to Camp Nou next year. However, with the condition that Barcelona must have the budget to bring him in next summer.

Mid was not so good. Caicedo was also making some blunders in the previous matches. The attacking line is still become the main problem for chelsea but another side's impact is still there.
Chelsea has become a club with most passes and shoots since first week of EPL but this club is lack of proper finishing at this moment. Chelsea needs a striker but this is not a an urgent need by chelsea.

Pochettino needs to change its strategy for chelsea in upcoming match.

Their team performance is not very bad because I noticed that as well that the players are beginning to have a good chemistry but what they lack currently is a good finisher, that would help them win matches because ever since Christian Nkunku got injured the Chelsea attackers are finding it tough to put the ball into the net, I don't think they can depend on Nicolas Jackson who's only  registered one goal in four matches this season, therefore I think their main focus for the next window should be to invest on a  quality attacker and make Jonathan and Christian Nkunku the support.
 Having the highest number of passes and shot doesn't really count when a club fails to get goals and they need scoring to get points that count for them, else they'll end up finishing mid table like last season, chelsea has sacked up to three coaches since the arrival of their new  owner Todd Boehly,  however Pouchettino is a good coach with experience but failure to meet his expectations could cost him his managerial role.

[Strongkored]

At the outset of this EPL season, Chelsea appears to be struggling with a less-than-productive striker. Evidently, in the match against Nottingham Forest, Chelsea generated numerous opportunities, yet none were successfully converted into goals.

The circulating rumor suggests that Chelsea is keen on acquiring Oshimen.



Is acquiring Oshimen the right move? Are there other aspects beyond the attacking line that are influencing Chelsea's current performance?

He a good striker at Napoli, but if he moves to Chelsea who knows whether he will perform as well as when he played in Serie A, because it seems that good players who move to Chelsea go sour, there has not been a player at Chelsea whose career has become brilliant, so maybe it would be better for Osimhen to stay at Napoli or if he wants to move in the transfer window it would be better to choose a better club than Chelsea because several clubs are also reportedly very keen to get this Nigerian player, but this is just my opinion and could be wrong because Chelsea It's still possible to develop better, but it looks like it still takes a long time.
Nicolas Jackson scored a goal in a friendly match with Chelsea but when he entered the main match he looked barren, only one goal and he got more yellow cards than he scored, and Enzo Fernandez also hasn't shown what he should show, there are no assists that he made this seasons, or is there something wrong with the strategy implemented by Pochettino?

Sevilla was a very important player like de bruyne. Seilling him to another club will become another mistake from pep. Manchester city has been loosing gundogan which has been deciding to join in barcelona.
I think that if it's reasonable if manchester city wants keep him even longer. I remember if city has also put barcelona's transfer clause in the new contract. Silva will able to join in barcelona as long as the blaugrana will agree to pay 60 millions to get him,

Barcelona needs to pay 60 million and fulfill the primary requirement for Silva to join them in Barcelona anytime as stated in an additional clause.
It gives win win situation for either of parties.

Juventus are lining up Arsenal's 30-year-old Ghana midfielder Thomas Partey as a replacement for 30-year-old France midfielder Paul Pogba, whose contract could be terminated if he is found to have breached anti-doping rules. (La Repubblica - Italian)
Pogba may face a potential ban of up to four years due to a positive testosterone test. According to reports, Juventus is considering terminating his contract regardless of the length of the ban.

I don't think this is possible, Arsenal is still lack of midfielder, that's why Havertz is playing in midfielder.

Havertz's real position was attacking midfielder but potter was changing his position as a striker which has been surprising anyone last season. Havertz was never suitable to playing as a striker. Potter was only using him as his experiment in the past.
Arteta was putting him in the right position again. Partey may still be able to leave from the club in january but this depends on his decision as well.

The only possibility Arsenal will let Partey to join Juventus if Juventus is willing to let Vlahovic join Arsenal, Arsenal is still looking for a new striker since the last season. This will not gonna be easy for Juventus, but I hope they accept this deal to make Arsenal become more stronger and we will see a new color in Arsenal.

Vlahovic to arsenal? The gunne had nketiah and gabrie. why does arsenal need vlahovic from juventus at this moment? It sounds non sense.
Juventus is putting a very expensive price on vlahovic. Old lady will not let one of its best striker to join in another club for free.

Jurgen Klopp have long term target with Liverpool as head coach and he not interested yet to be Germany national teams manager as said yesterday when Hansi Flick sacked from his position after losing over Japan 1-4. DFB still not announce who will be next Germany head coach due any rumor and Bayern Munich former Philip Lahm recommended with Louis van Gaal. I think with Julian Nagelsmann become next manager for Germany national teams its not really bad ideas because he has know and has good achievement with RB Leipzig and Bayern Munich, but have difference pressure when becoming club head coach than national teams.

Actually, Hansi Flick have top performance when becoming Bayern Munich head coach but he can't bring the same achievement when becoming Germany national teams, seems best choose for next Germany head coach have experience with national team than club.

However, Chelsea's current situation is less favorable because Nkunku is still injured and Niklas Jackson is also not in his best form so there are not many options they can use to score goals. Bringing in Osimhen would certainly be very good for Chelsea's attack line and there is no need to doubt his quality.

If Chelsea succeeds in getting Osimhen from Napoli then we will see a potential new top scorer in the EPL. On the other hand, if Nkunku recovers from injury, he can play as AMF and Osimhen will be a striker, that would be an extraordinary thing, I can't imagine how dangerous Chelsea's attack line will be if that really happens.

As long as the midfielder and defender also support each other, because it is useless to have a striker who has the ambition to score goals but there are no other players who have the ability to create opportunities or provide beautiful balls. What I know about Chelsea at the moment is that the problem is the lack of players who have the ability to handle the ball. Ok Nkunku at AMF, striker Oshimhen and Mudryk? Where would you like him to be placed? Lol players with super expensive purchases last season are still useless.

If this transfer is successful, both of Osimhen and Chelsea are stupid because Osimhen want to join a weak team while Chelsea have been sign Jackson and yet they want to spend more money. Chelsea just need to wait Nkunku is fully recovered from his injury, I believe Chelsea will able to score more goals.

Pochettino need to use the current Chelsea player as good as possible, not only want to sign new player.

These days there are indeed rumours that discuss Chelsea and Osimhen. Indeed this could be good but on the other hand this could also be bad for Chelsea itself.

The conditions remain fifty-fifty I think. Osimhen is one of the young players who has been very good in these 2 seasons for Napoli and he is likely to continue his good form this season for Napoli but when talking about the possibility of him at Chelsea this is still ambiguous.
When a player who comes from Serie A with a more relaxed playing pattern will be very difficult to adapt to the EPL which has a strong intensity and fast game. some examples such as Lukaku, Pogba and Denis Zakaria have felt this and this could also apply to Osimhen.
On the other hand, Napoli are also unlikely to let their talented players leave easily because there must be an expensive dowry to redeem Osimhen's clause from Napoli.

I think that Osimhen could also go to a top club where he is guaranteed to play in the Champions League. Chelsea has now tried so many things and they are once again screwing up the beginning of the season. These results they have had so far really suggest that they will once again muss the Champions League qualification. I think that is the competition every top player wants to play and for now it doesn't look like Chelsea could make it into the top 4. Maybe they won't even end up in the top 7 again.

Klopp was offered the manager position at Germany national team but he rejected this offer. I'm not surprised with his answer though because there isn't any reason for him to leave Liverpool right now. He wouldn't like to manage 2 teams at the same time either. I think he has done the right thing for himself.

Because Liverpool should be his main concern right now. The previous season didn't went well for Liverpool you know. They are really expected to make a serious improvement this season like a fight for the league title. He wouldn't like to increase his workload now.

I've watched Klopp's career, and he's never overcommitted. Recent Liverpool issues? They demonstrate how tough and unpredictable the Premier League is. I dont blame Klopp for rejecting the German national team opportunity. Liverpool is hard to manage, especially after last season. Germany has numerous options with Julian Nagelsmann being mentioned as a Hansi Flick replacement. Klopp's decision could benefit Liverpool and Germany in the long run. How would two jobs help him?

I'm not sure if this transfer will actually go through, but I do recall reading news over a month ago about Juventus talking to Arsenal about signing Thomas Partey. I don't believe it's related to Pogba's contract at all.

Chelsea not in good shape, they're suffering and Mauricio Pochettino needs to provide good results if he wants to continue to retain position in the team. The blues have no intentions in signing Victor Osimhen, perhaps they have Christopher Nkunku who's currently ruled out of games because he's injured.Victor Osimhen is a potential striker for Napoli and I don't think the club would released the player to any elite team. Osimhen presence in Napoli is necessary because he's consistent in producing vital results for the club in crucial moments.

@decodx it seems that Pogba is really jinxed these day’s because first he was out injured and then this doping ban which of course can be over turned but if he’s yet found guilty post the appeal too then it’ll be really disappointing because he was a gifted player and watching him play was really entertaining. Furthermore Arsenal won’t sell Thomas on the cheap because they’ll know that Juventus are in a desperate situation but I don’t think that Juventus financial situation is strong hence they maybe forced to part with Vlahovic to seal this deal.

Osimhen will always be able to play in UCL once he keep stays in napoli even longer. Why does he need to go to the chelsea? Chelsea is a horrible club now and this club is bullshit. Todd boehly has been destroying it with his hand. Chelsea was not a dream team anymore.
Pochettino was not able in bringing back the best performance from chelsea. This coach keeps hire more and more young players which have no experience in playing on EPL. It will be a blunder for osimhen if he will leave napoli to join in chelsea.
Chelsea is still struggling right now and it may not able to stay at the midtable at the end of this season. It's impossible for chelsea to be a good destination for osimhen.
Napoli has also mentioned it many times if he was not for sale. Top 4 was too good to be true for chelsea. The club needs to put top 10 as its first target.
