⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[QueenVera]

Kepa isn't all that much of a star that they would have to consider, if they really want to get someone then they should look for someone much better. This is Real Madrid we are talking about and their level is far beyond what Kepa could bring in for them. I understand that he might be a reserve goalkeeper and not the starting one, but even with that then they would have to get someone younger for the future.

It is really a shame that Madrid can't build their own players from the youth setup, when was the last time you have seen them bring in a player from their youth setup? They could at least get a backup goalkeeper that is young and give him a chance to play, maybe not now but after the loan period is over for Kepa and Courtois is back they should be able to really handle that. I think the situation doesn't require to make Kepa's contract permanent, he was on loan and he should go back and Real should find someone else, that would be a lot better.

Well like you said Kepa Arrizabalaga is not really the 1st choice of Realmadrid he's just temporary at the team and could leave the club when his loan period is very, however bringing him into the club is not really a bad idea  because so far his stats has been impressive he's kept 4 cleansheets and conceded 6 goals in 8 matches I believe Ancelotti knew his capabilities and what Kepa could over to the team before he decided to choose his as a replacement for Courtois before he gets better.

 Well there's nothing shameful in not being able to utilize their home grown players it doesn't make them less of a team and moreover every team has a way of running their system the fact that they don't raise players like Barcelona doesn't make them weak Realmadrid would still be Realmadrid whether they utilize their home grown players or not and as for Kepa he's just fine and enjoying his days at the club until Courtois fully recovers.

[Stepstowealth]

Kepa Arrizabalaga could have a perfect chance in Real Madrid because of Curtois's situation in this team. In fact, Real Madrid should even try to buy this Spanish player because Curtois is not a young player anymore and he can't be a reliable option for Real Madrid in the next years anymore. On the other hand, we can't be sure about the situation of Curtois when he comes back to the team.

Kepa has always expressed his determination to remain in the club and become their number one choice. Real Madrid management will judge to see how his performance has been in the club, and the number of clean sheets he has made and key saves for the club. If it is good, they may decide to keep him as competition for Curtois to battle the first team place with.

Robert Sanchez and Andre Onana aren't terrible goalkeepers, the both of them have had a pretty bad start to life in their respective clubs, but they can improve in the long run, it is not uncommon for players to struggle to adapt when they join a new club and that's prolly what has impacted their performances. Having said that, i agree that maybe Manchester United shouldn't have let De Gea leave the club, i think he is a better goalkeeper than Onana, and as for Kepa, i don't rate him so highly and his transfer to Real Madrid is a loan deal and he could return to Chelsea when the deal expires.

Chelsea should try to bring Kepa back, Sanchez is bad and makes careless mistakes. He sold the game to Arsenal in Chelsea's last game.

[Jody.Drummer]

Another stupid decision made by Chelsea to sign Sanchez who play like a shit similar to Onana, and let their good goalkeepers to play to other team/leave e.g. De Gea and Kepa.

Yes, almost the same blunders were made by these two clubs and it had a big impact on the team's performance, especially in defense. Onana before joining Manchester United was a good goalkeeper and I'm sure we all agree with that, but the problem occurred when he joined this English club, he repeatedly made mistakes and in the end caused disappointment because he did not play as expected. On the other hand I also agree that Manchester United were too quick to make a decision and let David d Gea go, even though I think his performance is still good enough to stay under the Manchester United bar.

Dominic King started talking about Manchester City and Cole Palmer. He believes Pep Guardiola made a mistake but selling their young player, Cole Palmer.
Cole Palmer left Manchester City while he was playing these since he was a kid and joined Chelsea for 55 million euros and in the game against Arsenal, he scored a goal against this team.



https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-12662579/Dominic-King-insists-Guardiola-WRONG-sell-Cole-Palmer-Chelsea-42-5m-winger-scored-against-Arsenal-Chris-Sutton-says-doubt-Peps-judgement-hosts-clash-Mail-Sports-Kicking-podcast.html

I also feel Pep Guardiola made a huge mistake and took a gamble in his decision to sell Cole Palmer in the summer window because obviously he has made a massive improvement in his game and gradually becoming a very important player in Chelsea team. If this day was for-seen I am sure Guardiola wouldn’t give a go ahead for Palmer’s sale.

De Gea is still free agent. I saw a source claiming that Manchester United might rethink of signing him back. However that source was The Sun so I don't believe anything they publish.  

Apart from that it is said he can even decide for an early retirement depending on his getting a satisfying offer from a team. I hope he doesn't get retired this early in his career. 32 isn't an old age for a goalkeeper. Especially for a great goalkeeper like him. Probably teams from Europe don't want to approach due to his high demand. Otherwise I don't know the reason. Maybe he would get an offer from Saudi Arabia or Qatar.

Indeed, there are some reports that say that Manchester United plans to bring De Gea back but in this case I feel not too sure because seeing from his condition as if he was dumped even though De Gea has a desire to stay at Manchester United and is even willing to reduce his salary, I think this should be something that De Gea cannot refuse.
But indeed in this case we also cannot be completely sure that he will not really return because all possibilities can still occur in this case it's just that for me this is a little heavy if De Gea returns to Manchester United who expelled him from Old Trafford last season.

I think De Gea is done with United and should not go back. It is in his past now and we should be looking to the future with Onana as United’s first choice goalkeeper. Yes we know De Gea is a rare gem but Onana is slowly getting his head in the game, his performance in the last two games for United in the league and in the champions league shows Onana still has more to offer.

[rahmad2nd]

De Bruyne is another star with his name being called with Saudi Arabia teams for next summer. He is 32 years old though but I believe he is still solid enough to play at the same level for a couple of more years at least. I don't know if he would lean towards such transfer yet. No doubt the offer would be quite attracting. 

De Bruyne must be focused on recovering from his injury first. After that he wouldn't think about these things already now. He would concentrate on his game until the end of the season. I would like to see him staying at Manchester City longer honestly.

How many billions will be offered by saudi pro league team to get him from manchester city? De bruyne was not for sale even when his contract will almost run out and manchester city has a plan to keep him much longer in the club.
Saudi pro league team shall have waited him to reach 40 years old before SPL can get him. Manchester city is need his talent to make sure haaland will have someone who supplied the ball regularly.

I wonder how much money will be offered by saudi pro league team. 300?400? or 500?

Interesting, by reading this post, I immediately surfed to look for various news related to this Manchester United star player. There is news that the Saudi club Al Nassr has tried to approach him. referring to what was reported by SportBible which refers to Rudy Galetti's report, it is also claimed that Al Nassr has opened steps to approach Kevin De Bruyne's representatives.
As reported, Al Nassr's hope, the report continues, is that they can meet directly with the players concerned to explain their long-term projects and at the same time persuade De Brunye to be willing to be a partner with Cristiano cs. Meanwhile, what we know is that De Brunye is still under contract with Manchester City until 2025.

It's a little strange indeed, with this assumption, Al Nassr can wait until the City player finishes his contract with his current club. or, dig into their pockets to immediately recruit him next summer. Well, we know very well that Al Nassr is one of the rich clubs that has injections from the PIF company. Unfortunately, Manchester City is also a very rich team. Whether the owners are connected to each other, I'm really not sure. It's just that De Bruyne is still relied on by City and he still wants to compete in Europe's highest league. Al Nassr's wishes or efforts will end in vain. because, City. currently one of the strongest teams in the European league. which means, De Brunye still has the potential to win various trophies while still with TheCitizen.

It's unlikely they will make him an offer to come back to MU again, they have a policy now that if you leave, you go. At least that's how it seems from the outside. Especially they have a pretty good goalkeeper at the moment, Onana is performing well and I still think he's the least to blame for all the silly goals conceded

But indeed, some media outlets have reported this, one of which is The Sun, even though we know that The Sun is just a media outlet that sometimes raises issues that are in the news without caring whether it is true or not.
Even so, I think that even if Manchester United eventually want De Gea back, De Gea must have pride because after all he has been betrayed before and it would be very funny if he returned with a new clause.
Indeed, until now there have been no offers from other clubs for him but if he is serious and can train well then I think he will still not be difficult to get a club even though he is more than 30 years old.

It was also flashed in the media today that De Gea will join MU in the winter because Onana will be at the Africa Cup of Nations. One thing I don't understand, will they sign him for a few matches while Onana is busy, or will they combine the performances of their goalkeepers in the future, or will De Gea be a backup? All in all a lot of unanswered questions so far

If I were KDB, I would go to Saudi Arabia (if the offer was similar to the offers that were made to Ronaldo, Neymar, etc.). Firstly, he has already won everything he could at the club level. Secondly, because of feelings of resentment. An excellent player, the engine of the team, on a personal level received simply zero PR and awards. Modric received the Ballon d'Or, KDB did not receive anything (and it is already obvious that he will not receive it). It seems to me that in his situation it’s worth accepting and just taking a lot of money.

[Asiska02]

Actually, Kepa Arrizabalaga was prepared to replace Thibaut Courtois who was injured until the end of the season, but Kepa's good performance means he has the opportunity to become the main choice for Real Madrid next season by signing him permanently. Although in clause contract there are not option for permanent contract but depend with Real Madrid have big offer or not for releasing transfer fees from Kepa Arrizabalaga. Its looks excited with Real Madrid main goal keeper position if there are have option between Kepa Arrizabalaga and Thibaut Courtois are both players with impressive performance.

I think if Chelsea as huge transfer fees and Thibaut Courtois good recovery process better keep him and not give permanent contract for Kepa due Madrid have good goal keeper with Courtois.

Having this two goalkeepers together in one team will be very challenging for them both to bare. They are both great goalkeepers and both have a lot of experience in goalkeeping. They will both need a lot of playing time and when they don’t get enough time to play they will be very discouraged staying back in the team. It will be better if Kepa goes to another team to play as first choice goalkeeper when his loan contract expires at Real Madrid. I’m not sure if Real Madrid will want to sell off Courtouis when he’s fully recovered because he has been keeping  perfectly well before his injury. The only time they will want to sell him off is when he doesn’t recover to his former form after an extended period of time giving to him for his recovery process.

I think Cole parmer is the only player that would have given Manchester City that Debruyne impact before they sold him to Chelsea.I watched him play against the gunners and I saw the potentials embedded in the young talent.He is someone who can enter any team and start performing well.
Take a look at the Chelsea vs Arsenal game how he his performance was in that game.Therefore,I believe Parmer has a lot to still deliver,but I'm only concerned about the team he moved to because I know very well that Chelsea cannot give him the kind of style that would fit his nature.Parmer is a slim person that needs only a team that is good at touches,and not a team that plays physical Football.Chelsea plays physical football and therefore,it isn't the right team for him.
And for Onana,I think the save he had against Copenhagen might be enough to revive his confidence.

Why don't you think Kepa is worth making a permanent move, doesn't he have good form?
Kepa only conceded 7 goals in 10 appearances in La Liga and 3 goals in the Champions League from 3 appearances. But that's not all because Kepa is weak, but also because Real Madrid's defensive performance is not very strong.

It's not bad for Kepa to get a few seasons in as Real Madrid's goalkeeper, but I'm not at all sure Real Madrid will if Courtois recovers. Real Madrid doesn't have a better goalkeeper than Courtois at the moment, so Kepa should be very reliable.

Real Madrid have shaky form this season, specifically pointing to the defendlines, the key defenders are injures and unavailable for league games. This point mentioned just made me remember Eder Militao who's injured and he's yet to feature for the important games for Real Madrid, though they have superb goalkeepers, Thibaut Courtois who's currently injured but he's very important goalkeeper for Los Blancos. Real Madrid signing Arrizabalaga Kepa from Chelsea for temporary replacement for Courtois was a good signing, he has delivered and made important saves for his new club.

Kepa is not a bad choice so far he's Kept Realmadrid going and I think Ancelotti did an all round check before he decided to loan him as a temporary option, though i thought he was going to pick David Degea since he was cheaper and they could get him on a free transfer but he decided to go for Kepa,I feel Degea's age might be the reason and maybe they signed Kepa to  test his ability and probably sign him permanently if he's good enough.

  However @BITCOIN4X  Realmadrid form is not shaky if it was they would had been underperforming and so far they're not and are even doing well in both their league and in the UCL, moreover they are currently the leaders of the league and are doing find even with the absence of Eder Militão, do not forget they still got David Alaba and Rudiger who are very good defenders

Degea’s age might be one thing Madrid considered against signing him as a free transfer. Another thing again could be that his wages might be too erroneous for Madrid at this time. My biggest guess of why Degea missed out on joining Real Madrid was because of his weakness of playing with his feet. Kepa was signed because he seems much re fit for those kind of pattern.

Madrid are in the right form currently and I don’t have too many doubts of them defeating Barcelona in the El Classico. The major problem is the coach Ancelloti, he twerks formations when is facing either Barcelona and Atletico Madrid which we saw against the later club. If Ancelloti decides to twerk this formation again and introduce the two veterans Modric and Kroos to start the derby match then I have an iota of believe that they will lose. The Madrid midfielder should remain as it is with young players in the midfield and Toni Kroos starting to offer his experience, which will be needed crucially in that game

Chelsea have shown an interest in signing Barcelona midfielder Gavi for £87 million:
Chelsea, have expressed an interest in signing midfielder Gavi, whom Barcelona could sell for £87 million to ease their financial woes. Gavi is one of the youngest players at Barcelona, and he makes a playing space in one of the best clubs in modern football, which is Barcelona. In which it could be difficult for a young player to take a regular place for X11. By selling Gavi for £87 million, Barcelona wanted to ease their financial troubles.
I think it is not fair for Barcelona to sell him for financial troubles. Because he is a very talented and creative young midfielder. While it would be very good for Chelsea to sign him with a low transfer fee given his expected young age, It will not be a good step for Barcelona to sell him because he is educated in La Masia and purely set for the tactics of Barcelona. Any way, it will be good for Barcelona to sell him to financial critics or not. What did you think, guys? Give us your thoughts.

Douglas Costa offered himself to Juventus to be back.

If Juventus wants him he will come back as a free agent.

Disregard news and informations like this, they should be seen as complete rumors and will never be actualized. Gavi Is a Barcelona bound player and will never leave Barcelona for Chelsea!
There are player's to be sold off for financial challenges and Gavinis not amongst one of em. Frankie De Jong would be the first name that comes to mind honestly. He is a vital player for catalians but he will fetch em.good money of he is to be sold.

Chelsea already have brought in good names in midfied who can do the job for Chelsea, they don't need Gavi. His job for Barcelona is not completely done.

You are right, Gavi will not be let go by Barcelona because he is one of the club's long-term future assets. This season he has always been Xavi mainstay in every match and I'm sure Xavi will not sell his favorite player. Apart from that, it is also reported that Frankie De Jong will renew his contract in January, which will close the door for other teams wanting to recruit him. Chelsea really needs a more productive striker to be able to score more goals and help the team win in every match.

For this reason, this news is still just a rumor and I'm sure Gavi also doesn't want to leave Barcelona too quickly because he is so comfortable with Barcelona. Chelsea can look for another sticker if they need it but we'll see because Barcelona haven't recovered financially so anything could happen in the January transfer window.

We can see whether Kepa is a good or bad choice in the El Clasico today. Real Madrid will play against Barcelona today, Kepa must prove that he deserves to sign permanently in Real Madrid. If he can perform well today, I'm sure Real Madrid management will consider to sign him permanently. But if he plays badly, I'm not sure Real Madrid will sign him permanently.

If we compare Kepa and De Gea, I personally think Kepa is much better. Kepa is younger (29) and he looks to have a better fitness. Meanwhile De Gea is already 32 years old and looks more vulnerable for a potential injury. But if we consider the ability, I think both De Gea and Kepa have the same level of ability.

Barcelona are looking for a way to boost their squad by bringing in good talents that would help the current ones strengthen the team just like their rival Realmadrid has done this summer however letting on of their talented youngsters leave is not an option for them currently cause he's like the future of Barcelona, therefore they put a very huge amount of money in his release clause to scare away other clubs that might want to demand for him making it almost impossible for him to leave.

 Well it would come as a shock if Gavi would want to leave one of the biggest club in the world with a good history and many trophies to Chelsea that are not in the Champions league and might not even qualify for the Champions League, even though Barcelona are not very strong financially I doubt if they'll want to let Gavi leave the team.

Meanwhile De Gea is already 32 years old and looks more vulnerable for a potential injury. But if we consider the ability, I think both De Gea and Kepa have the same level of ability.

David De Gea and Kepa Arrizabalaga are among the top goalkeepers who make clubs spend the most money for each successful save in the Premier League. De Gea, once the highest-paid goalkeeper in the Premier League, is something other goalkeepers cannot touch. At that time, Kepa was not rated higher than De Gea. But last season, De Gea lost form with silly mistakes on the field, forcing MU to replace goalkeeper Onana. Compared to current achievements, of course, Kepa has surpassed De Gea. Real Madrid's choice of Kepa for today's El Clasico match is entirely reasonable. Kepa has kept 5 clean sheets in all competitions for Los Blancos.
Kepa seemed extremely happy. He affirmed that this is his long-standing dream and wants to continue playing for the Bernabeu team for a long time. However, the final decision on signing a long-term contract will be made by Los Blancos based on the 29-year-old goalkeeper's performance from now until the end of the season.
