⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[harapan]

According to reports,Arsenal are looking at the possibility of signing a striker in the January transfer window,and they are seriously looking at  Brendfort goal machine,Ivan Toney who was placed on a six months match ban from football for gambling addiction.It is said that the striker may be interested in making a move to Emirate stadium if they should knock on his door.
When I heard this rumour,I felt it was just a joke,but it's now confirmed that there is serious interest from both parties to strike a deal,but I wonder what Arsenal will be doing with three strikers.In all these rumours,I seriously feel for Nketiah,because he might end up being the one not to see playing time again.

If they must win this Premier league,  Ivan Toney is the goal scorer needed for Arsenal's reign.  Ivan is not just  wanted by Arsenal, Chelsea have also been monitoring his progress since he got banned for gambling.
He is strong in the air and has a good touch he will a good partnership for Gabriel Jesus.  Nketiah has tried but if Arsenal wants to see success they should make the signing the most important one during the January window.  Brentford coped all now he was away they can still cope with his sale to Arsenal.  Arsenal should also get a suitable player to always replace Saka when injured.  He is a good player but his absence cause the team going backwards.

Ivan Toney is Brentford goal machine and last season in 33 matches he managed to provide 20 goals with 4 assists and this proves that Ivan Toney is indeed talented player from England.
He also experienced ridiculous gambling scandal just like several other players who also carried out gambling activities which affected his career as football player.

When the transfer season opens it is natural that Arsenal intends to bring in Ivan Toney because up to now they need really sharp striker.
The addition of Ivan Toney in the next transfer window could provide additional strength for Arsenal next season in the EPL and UCL.
Moreover they are behind several teams in terms of the front line players they have.

It seems we are going to see Sancho leaving Manchester United soon because they could have this player in the team if they say he is sorry for what he said and ask for apologies especially because Ten Hag is unhappy.
But this palyer didn't do that yet and that's why it seems he wants to leave the team and Manchester United wants to sell him during the winter. However if Manchester United sell him they will lose some money because Manchester United bought Sancho from Dortmund for 84 million euros and they can't get the same amount of money from this palyer.

Huge ego between Erik ten Hag and Jadon Sancho not ask apology have loss his position in Manchester United and rumor will sell on winter transfer window will open, left two months for Jadon Sancho think about which one team will be good career for him and forget with bad experienced after leaving Dortmund and joining Manchester United he hasn't on bad position. Close rumor he will leave Manchester United and Erik ten Hag seems over patience waiting Jadon Sancho apology although have several Manchester United's player have ask him to build up good communication with Erik ten Hag.

Drastically dropped Jadon Sancho market values, last several years when Dortmund sold him 84 million euro seems in next window transfer opening seems his values under 50 million euro and there difficult with top European teams want to get release above 50 million for transfer fees.

It is certain that Sancho departure will occur in January because of ongoing problems which have put pressure on Man United management to immediately sell the player and if we talk about losses, MU will definitely suffer losses, but this problem will not cause MU losses because it is for MU finances still fine.
but the question is who will replace Sancho and where will he go? I am still having a hard time finding news about this because currently there are a lot of false rumors linking Sancho to other teams and up to now I am still waiting for news about which player will replace Sancho.

Another Benfica gem that has attracted the interest of one of the big EPL teams and he is Joao Neves who is still 19 years old. Manchester United is currently monitoring Joao Neves for their winter signing and as a defensive midfielder it is possible that he will be able to have an impact in the future for Manchester United. We know that currently there is Casemiro as a defensive midfielder and perhaps Erik Ten Hag wants him as Casemiro's replacement and successor if Casemiro leaves. Joao Neves' performance at Benfica and the Portuguese national team was impressive and that is why he is now being targeted by one of the big teams.

I think the possibility of competition for Joao Neves will not only belong to Manchester United and I think there will be other big teams who are also interested in signing him. Currently his market value is 20 million euros and considering that the defensive midfielder position is quite special, it is possible that the price could rise to 35 to 45 million euros in the future. How do you see this rumor, will Manchester United get Benfica's talented midfielder in the transfer market?

I can't understand why Ten Hag always searching for new defensive midfielder when they're actually missing of good goalkeeper and defenders. In defensive midfielders they already have Casemiro, Eriksen, and Amrabat, the funny thing Amrabat is rotated to left back position.

Neves seems to be a promising potential player, he should join to strong teams e.g. Manchester City, Arsenal or Liverpool.

Chelsea current situation puts pressure on them to immediately get someone who is very reliable like Osimhen, even though whatever the price, Chelsea will definitely buy him immediately because the pressure of poor performance requires Chelsea to immediately move quickly to get new, more qualified players and the only other question is whether Osimhen wants to join Chelsea? meanwhile, Osimhen always chooses to join a team that has a better future for a career in higher competitions and on the one hand, Chelsea situation seems to scare high quality players from joining that team.

and for the price that will be offered from Napoli I will try to guess that Napoli will definitely make an offer of more than $150m and it will not be more than $200m.
If Napoli make an offer of $200m I will laugh until my stomach hurts, because that an unreasonable price.

Chelsea actually don't need to sign another striker for now. I mean I also don't find Jackson's performance good at all. Broja is also not a good alternative. However they still have Nkunku in their sqaud. He has been injured for a long time which is really sad for Chelsea. However he is expected to return by November. 

Nkunku's performance will be a key factor for Chelsea to be more consistent about finding goals easily in their matches.

The only question mark is about if he would adapt to the team and league quickly. I hope his end won't be the same as Werner. 

Before this season starting Nkunku and Jackson has displayed impressive performance on pre season tours this makes some of people thought these players could be a good solution to solved Chelsea weaknesses because just like i said before last season one of Chelsea biggest weaknesses is they don't have sharp striker but everything was change when Nkunku got long term injured and Jackson performance decline that seems Chelsea is return to lack of good striker

But maybe they will see the performance of Jackson or other strikers until January next year and if the players just like Jackson, Sterling or Mudryk showing better performance then Chelsea probably won't buy new players on striker position but if these players performance still far from expectations and disappointing then most likely Chelsea is really required new striker to solved this problem

Ten Hag has a team of talented young players, yet he seems to prefer buying from other clubs. There's something not quite right with this team. I do believe he could be a good solution to Manchester United's current need for a new midfielder. Joao Neves' style of play is also well-suited to what United's midfield currently requires. For instance, he often provides accurate long passes that can break through the opponent's defense. He's also good at making tackles, and he doesn't shy away from committing fouls when needed.

But as you mentioned, Neves might reject Manchester United's offer because it might not be the best club for him anymore.

I think it's obvious to everyone that this league would not be the best place for his son to start a real professional career. Moreover Ronaldo himself has repeatedly said that he is not happy with his son's attitude to sport etc, because he can't keep discipline, so who knows what will come out of him in football. In fact, you can count on your fingers the number of footballers who have continued the work of his father with the same success and Ronaldo Jr. will be very difficult to reach the same heights

Yes, I've never seen it or maybe I missed it that there are great athletes whose children can achieve the achievements their parents achieved or even surpass them, maybe because they're already under pressure so they can't focus on their career because they're always connected to their parents, especially if it's true what Ronaldo said his son that Ronaldo Jr is not as disciplined as him, we know how Ronaldo is very disciplined with training and his body that is why his career can reach a very high level because an undisciplined athlete will greatly affect his skills even though he is talented without discipline and hard work it is impossible to survive for long as star player like that achieved by Ronaldo, which is proven by many titles with the club and personally.

I think Jackson is fine, he might not be a super star, but he can still perform unlike Sterling which the performance is unstable. The other winger e.g. Mudryk is playing like trash, so this mean Chelsea need two wingers. This will make Chelsea become better on the attacking line.

Looking at what is happening now, actually I still feel that Chelsea in the last few matches did not have too big a mistake in terms of players, it's just that they had problems with the formations and schemes they did which actually made some players become less in terms of development but when looking at the new scheme where 4-3-3 and players are placed in positions that are really comfortable for them in the end this gives better results.
Sterling we know is a fast player and he is a player who in the last 2 game has been able to ruffle the opponents defense on the flank and this is something that is very good if Poche give more space.
Nkunku is still sidelined with an injury but if he is eventualy available it is clear that Chelsea are improving.

I see their problem in the attacking line. They have been good for two games maybe but there is still a big inconsistency problem.

Jackson and Broja aren't credible strikers at the moment. They must be desperate to wait for Nkunku's recovery as soon as possible. When he starts to play for Chelsea hopefully we can see some good improvement in the productivity.

Saudi Arabian club Al-Ettifaq is set to officially sign free agent Jesse Lingard:
Lingard, who has also been linked with La Liga outfit Osasuna since leaving Nottingham Forest at the end of the season, also had a successful loan spell with West Ham in 2021, but Al-Ettifaq boss Steven Gerrard has taken an interest in it and wants a permanent move for him to Al-Ettifaq.
Jesse Lingard has very good goal-scoring status from a performance point of view; he scored 35 goals in 232 appearances and has also been capped 32 times by England. He was also part of Gareth Southgate's squad, which made it to the semifinals of the World Cup in Russia in 2018. He has very good goal-scoring ability at Manchester United, but after leaving Manchester United, his goal-scoring ability has a little bit reduced, not like at a higher standard. But anyway, Steven Gerrard has managed to bring out his best form for Al-Ettifaq.

Having an additional player to consolidate the team whether in the attacking line since he is an attacking midfielder but also a winger, will help the team in case of injuries or red cards, without counting his performance if he will convince the team with his capabilities to play full time as a starting eleven player.
Al-Ettifaq is doing well in Saudi Pro League even if they missed some points in their latest matches.

He is 30 years old and has a successful career. It should not be difficult to predict that this career will continue in Saudi Arabia. He is currently idle and would like to work with Gerard in Saudi Arabia. Steven Gerard also wants to work with him and wants to see him in his team. In my opinion, it seems like a transfer that is highly likely to happen.

I see their problem in the attacking line. They have been good for two games maybe but there is still a big inconsistency problem.

It should be with some mistakes in the past to make Chelsea realize that bringing back these expensive players will not have too much impact on their conditions because in the end Chelsea condition will only be able to change with good schemes and formations and that is proven when they have a good scheme with Sterling, Jackson / Broja and Palmer as this trio provides something more for  Chelsea in terms of performance.
Trying to bring in expensive players is tantamount to throwing money away when the potential of some of the current players cannot be used properly.

Chelsea spent more than 1 billion euros on transfers in the last two seasons. But they didn't get the results they expected. However, according to press reports, they will do everything to sign Osimhen in the winter transfer window. Napoli want 140 million euros for Osimhen. It is estimated that Chelsea will pay this price. Honestly, I think it would be very good for Chelsea if this transfer happens. Chelsea have not been at a good level in recent years. If they manage to convince Osimhen, this transfer could bring Chelsea back to their glory days.

Jesse Lingard is not the best among his mates but then he has been lucky when it is his time to shine. I remember Jesse's glory days at Manchester United when he was netting along side Rashford and Martial. When he went to Westham on loan deal, he was a king in the Westham team but then he returned to Manchester United after the loan deal and was still seeing matches but not on a steady lane.

At Nothingham forest, he wasn't the star he was ought to be but then he is still active to play. A move to At-Ettifaq may save Lingards career before he turns to Dele Alli of England Nationality.

According to reports,Arsenal are looking at the possibility of signing a striker in the January transfer window,and they are seriously looking at  Brendfort goal machine,Ivan Toney who was placed on a six months match ban from football for gambling addiction.It is said that the striker may be interested in making a move to Emirate stadium if they should knock on his door.
When I heard this rumour,I felt it was just a joke,but it's now confirmed that there is serious interest from both parties to strike a deal,but I wonder what Arsenal will be doing with three strikers.In all these rumours,I seriously feel for Nketiah,because he might end up being the one not to see playing time again.

I doubt if Arsenal really wants to sign him. There is nothing special with Ivan Toney. I even think Nketiah is much better than him. Arsenal already has 2 top strikers, they actually doesn't need a new striker. Arsenal isn't a typical of a team that applies 2-3 strikers in their line up. As far as I know, they only use 1 striker and 2 wingers. So, what for they sign Ivan Toney?  

Although there is a confirmation that Arsenal is serious to sign him. I think there is still a chance that Arsenal cancels their interest. Moreover, I assume Brentford probably sets an expensive price for Ivan Toney because he is their goal machine. I guess Brentford may ask more than €40m for the transfer fees of Ivan Toney.

Chelsea spent a lot of money on transfers but couldn't find what they were looking for. The team's performance was not good and was below expectations. I don't think they will even make offers for overpriced players in the next transfer season.

Chelsea are far from their old days. They left their successful seasons behind. I think the Osimhen transfer may not be good for Chelsea and for Osimhen. Chelsea do not have a specific style of play and this could negatively affect Osimhen's performance.
