⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Ryu_Ar1]

Speaking of Felix, he is only on loan for a year and there is no permanent option in the current loan because of the condition of Barcelona which is still struggling financially and Felix's current high price so that for next season's striker if Lewa finally leaves, Barcelona will indirectly experience a crisis because Felix will also definitely return to Atletico because his loan period expires, although maybe they will start trying to consider something else for this player if it is proven that he is still very good in Barcelona's attack.

Barcelona will not even try to make him as a permanent transfer. Atletico puts non sense price for the garbage player like him which is unbelivable. Im thinking about felix's price shall be under 40m. It's caused by his horrible performance when playing in any of clubs. His performance in barcelona is not that good too. He was also getting small salary from barcelona. This is making the situation even worst than before. I wonder where barcelona will get money to buy the new players.
it doesn't have good income but the only way through selling the players to be used to buy a new striker. Im not seeing a possibility to recruit a new player at this moment without selling the players first.

Currently, the value of Joao is still not reduced much as he is still at the price of 50 million


But indeed with all the limitations and still not good relations between Simeone and Joao it is possible to bring this player at a price of 40 million only indeed for Barcelona this is still a little difficult because however seeing the current situation for them actually the financial condition is still unstable regardless of anything even last season after Xavi brought several players like Lewa and Raphinha they experienced a setback again and even had to cut again and again money for player transfers and that price even though it can still be forced but it will be difficult.

Joao's performance at Barcelona is actually much better than he was at Atletico or Chelsea but it is also not a guarantee because in the end now Barcelona must think of several options whether to try to gamble again by bringing players but their financial condition is getting worse or try to find potential young players in their La Masia like Lamine Yamal who is currently starting to be given a lot of playing time.

It's like Mbappe is trapped at PSG, he doesn't get the opportunity to play for another club, because PSG always prevents him from playing in other leagues by setting a price that is too high to be accepted by other clubs who want to sign him.

The situation is currently in Mbappe's hands, his contract expires at the end of this season and he is yet to sign a new contract, neither does he intend to extend his contract, thus it isn't in PSG's hands this time around, it is Mbappe's turn to decide if he wants to leave the club or not, and i think he is going to leave. From all indications, Mbappe is going to leave PSG to Real Madrid for free, he has to take this next big step in his career and give himself the opportunity to win the CL, which is a major trophy he has to win in order to get the opportunity of winning the Ballon D'or.

Well and don't really know what caused the fued between Simeone and João Félix that would make the manager to loan him  to several clubs for 2 seasons now, but one thing I'm sure is that Félix would never want to play for Atletico Madrid again not after he's been welcomed into his dream club and has blended well with both the manager and teammates.

 And with his performance on the pitch this few months he's played for the club I got a feeling that they're going to retain either for another loan season or buy him completely cause I think Xavi has grown confidence in him and  sees him as part of the future plans of Barcelona, adding Félix into the club completely would be a very great decision, it's something Chelsea would've done but they decided to allow him go back to Atletico Madrid, I don't think Xavi would want to make same mistake.

Now maybe every season we will still be faced with the drama of Mbappe and PSG with their contracts because indeed things like this will always continue to happen until there is clarity.
Mbappe leaving is actually a certainty in my opinion because despite what PSG have always done to try to keep Mbappe it still cannot be realised properly even though they gave an ultimatum like before but that method will still not be effective apart from those who have to sell Mbappe.
PSG should be more reluctant and let him go now even though this is detrimental but one of the best ways is to try to sell him quickly before he leaves for free.

But indeed the dispute between Joao and Simeone is inversely proportional to the attitude given by Atletico because we know that last season Joao officially extended his contract until 2029 before finally he was loaned to Barcelona so that even if he leaves at this time from Barcelona then indeed he will definitely rejoin Atletico until someone can bring him to a new club with a suitable clause.
Currently after Ansu left Barcelona for Brighton, Joao always gets the main place but it is indeed temporary because after all Joao's home is Atletico and when he still can't make up with Simeone then indeed this will still be a little complicated for Joao's own future.

Juventus had a meeting in England for Kalvin Phillips, who is open to a move from Manchester according to Gazzetta dello Sport.

The move if it will be, will be as on loan.

During the summer transfer window, Saudi Arabian clubs and even Chelsea were willing to spend money to sign Mbappé, but he rejected that offer. Perhaps Mbappé's purpose is too clear. The next destination he wants to go to is Real Madrid.
Mbappé gradually realized that his career could not develop at PSG, just like his senior "Neymar" had his career ruined there. He should decide to leave soon. The right to decide whether to go or stay belongs to him. He should not foolishly tie himself to PSG. And whether Real Madrid wants to sign him or not, they haven't decided yet, but I think they are eager to get Mbappé.

The truth is that a lot have already been said concerning the Kylian Mbappe and Paris Saint Germaine transfer saga but I don't think it'll be a subject of discussion again after next summer transfer window because reports has it the the Frenchman is Real Madrid bound but if for any reason Real Madrid fails to sign Mbappe next summer, the France national team captain is definitely gonna leave the French champions and probably join an English Premier League club.
Kylian Mbappe wants to play in a club that'll help him win the UEFA Champions League trophy as well as the the Balon D'or award

Juventus had a meeting in England for Kalvin Phillips, who is open to a move from Manchester according to Gazzetta dello Sport.

The move if it will be, will be as on loan.

This is a good deal for both parties. Kalvin Philips need regular top flight football for the next coming Year as the Euros are on the horizon and his lack of quality game time will limit his chances of getting selected. Southgate had in the past and now come under serious criticism for even inviting the likes of Philip while they are other options. Philip period at Manchester city has somewhat not been has he would have planned it to be even he has won almost every available trophy at the club level but Rodri brilliance has kept him out. Although I still think they don’t need him anymore because why go for Nunez when kalvin Philips can simply fill that role.

As for juventus, they will need him to cover for the suspended Paul Pogba who I think might have played his last game so for Juventus prior to the doping scandal. The loan move made by Juventus is a good option this will allow them access their target and see maybe he could play in the Italian league before going in for a full transfer. But the problem is City and Pep do not like loaning out players but rather complete sale or you sit and fight for your place which I would say Philip won’t win that too,

I will ask the question: Will Vinicius Junior give up the number 7 shirt to Mbappé, or will Mbappé wear Benzema's number 9 shirt? In fact, I think the number 7 shirt would be more suitable for Mbappé. Vinicius Junior is showing that he cannot own the number 7 shirt.

Even Ronaldo first wore shirt Number 9 when he had just joined Real Madrid. He got the number 7 later. Vinícius Júnior has a lot of potential, and I still believe in him. He was actually playing so good with in the Last couple of seasons with Benzema around. This season, he just doesn't seem to connect with Joselu at all. If he turns out to be so good, Mbappé will have to settle for another shirt number. Maybe Number 10 when Modric leaves.

Real Madrid is weaker in attack with the departure of Benzema and Marco Asensio while welcoming back two humble faces, Joselu and Brahim Diaz. I'm looking forward to the new episode built around Mbappé and Vinicius. Mbappé can do everything, is spectacular, and would be an excellent signing. As you know, Mbappé is currently wearing shirt number 7 at PSG. This is also his ideal shirt number after joining Real. This number 7 shirt was once given to Eden Hazard, but he could not keep it. Currently, Vinicius owns the number 7 shirt, and I doubt his talent this season. Vinicius completely sinks in big matches.
If Mbappé goes to Real Madrid, pond number 9 will definitely belong to him and will need to be rearranged after a season has passed. Who can take on the responsibility of wearing the number 7 shirt?

[coinlocket$]

This is a good deal for both parties. Kalvin Philips need regular top flight football for the next coming Year a

I do not follow Premier League so much.
Is he a good player? or just one of the many who can be replaced with almost any player?

[logfiles]

I don't think it's a matter of left and right wing positions that is an obstacle to recruiting Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid, but because PSG is not giving way to any team at the moment because PSG would rather keep him than sell him.

Trust me, the interest Real Madrid had before Mbappé signed for one more year was way more than the interest they have for him now. They even offered over 200M to PSG for him, very well knowing he had only one year left.

This time round, when Mbappé refused to sign a contract extension and PSG were desperate to at least get some money out of him, Real Madrid didn't even make any bid, not even a verbal agreement. Why do you think so?

I don't think the problem with Kylian Mbappe playing on the left wing is a problem because usually a professional player can play on both sides, left and right, we can see that like Real Madrid super start C.Ronaldo he can play on the left and right and we can see that in one 90 minute match he can change positions how many times in the game, and I think kylian Mbappe can play on the left and right too.

Are you trying to compare Ronaldo's ability to switch wings to Mbappé's?  
And also I didn't say he can't switch wings but to get the best out of him, he performs so well from the left wing. Ronaldo on the other hand is Ronaldo.

Kalvin Phillips shouldn't have left Leeds if he wanted to be a regular starter. Because it was obvious that his job was going to be really difficult about taking the shirt in the starting lineup. He is actually a talented defensive midfielder. But when there are so many solid alternatives like him it is harder to be a regular as a starter.

Not being able to play regularly and for so much time would probably affect his chance of being called to England national team as well. I assume he will end up with signing for a mid level team in the near future. It would be better for him if he is ambitious to play more often.

Chelsea is not yet stopped it. Chelsea failed due to the unreasonable price given by PSG. This is also the main reason why chelsea was failed to get him. Mbappe has been performing so well.
He is still having only a half of season in the PSG. This is going to be another difficult thing. Real madrid will decide it once mbappe will leaves from there as free agent.
Nothing clear this time as real madrid seems try to hold this as long as possible. I think that real madrid will be surprising us next year by announcing to sign mbappe as a new player.

[Hirose UK]

Yes the 3 ways you said is something that I have in mind too. In the first point I wouldn't say who they should sell to, but they should sell to someone who is serious about managing the club.
The second point, I think there are many people who would think like that.
In the third point, besides they have to bring in top players, they also have to start regenerating, because that will be their foundation for the future. And now many top clubs are doing that, we can see the changes made by Arsenal, Real Madrid's regeneration in La Liga and many more.

Not only in the third method, but all of these methods have big opportunity to change Manchester United for the better.
Firstly, Sheikh Jassim wealth means Manchester United has large budget to find players and coaches they can really rely on.
Second, Ten Hag is not worthy to coach Manchester United and now it is time for him to be replaced with another coach who is more qualified and capable of bringing about change.
Thirdly, there are too many Manchester United players who are not very useful, especially the young players they have who cannot change the quality of this squad's game.
I agree with what @Despairo said

But the problem is that when Glazer still insists on remaining in full control of Mamchester United, not only one or two offers come to them, but often the offer is submitted even the proposal comes at twice the price. They don't want to let go of this club easily, actually I have no problem with that as long as they are also serious in managing the club. But the fact that we see now is not the case, they only seem to prioritize their busines on behalf of Manchester United. Even some time ago the fans rallied to demand that the Glazers sell Manchester United, but they ignored it.

In reality the Glazer family can't do much to bring about change for Manchester United, wouldn't this just speak ill of them?
I know the Glazer family also has enormous wealth but they failed to build the Manchester United squad back into the English giant it was several years ago and if conditions like this continue then we will never see Manchester United truly become team to be afraid of.

Many people also think that the Glazer family made Manchester United just business to make more money and some offers were rejected because they wanted to get a really higher price.
It normal for things like this to happen, but they are too concerned with personal goals without thinking that Manchester United needs change and needs serious treatment.

I sure that in the next season or two, if the Glazer family is still like this, Manchester United will really experience their worst phase in the history of English football.
Honestly, it would be shame if a big team like Manchester United had to fall victim to an owner who doesn't really care about the team he owns.

Lol. Kalvin Philips would've been struggling with Leeds United in the Championship if he had not leave for Manchester City. Besides, it would be every players dream to work with Pep Guardiola so why stay with Leeds United when you can work with the best coach and manager? With his qualities when they first retuned to the Premier League, he should've made it to Pep Guardiola's first team but how can you drop Rodri for Kalvin Philips? I would consider Pep Guardiola insane!

With the Euro's approaching speedily, most players with less game time are on the move because they'll want to impress for the next six months. That's so they could be picked by the managers of them countries.

I do not follow Premier League so much.
Is he a good player? or just one of the many who can be replaced with almost any player?

He would fit in well Into Juventus. He's technical, physical and composed. If he can quickly adapt,then it's yours truly at the end of it all!
Considering they've lost Paul Pogba and the gambler, believe me, they need Kalvin and he needs a team his game to game time is mandatory. It could be the Old Ladies!

[Helena Yu]

he should've made it to Pep Guardiola's first team but how can you drop Rodri for Kalvin Philips? I would consider Pep Guardiola insane!

I believe before the agreement Pep has been tell Philips to become a substitute player except he can play better than the current Manchester City's midfielders. So it's really not make sense to blame Pep here, it's the risk that Philips need to accept.

I assume he will end up with signing for a mid level team in the near future. It would be better for him if he is ambitious to play more often.

He already get a good amount salary in Manchester City, he wouldn't want to feel by getting paid with small salary. He will choose to join other rich league e.g. Saudi Pro League.

If I only imagined, maybe I would imagine Haaland arrival at Los Blancos.

we all really understand what Madrid current situation is without a striker, they are able to perform very well in several competitions and if a great striker arrives, Madrid will definitely be more perfect and will become a very strong team in La Liga, but the problem is that some of the latest rumors are not yet clear whether that is the case. Its true that it will be done because there are lots of rumors circulating linking Madrid with other players but I really really hope that at least Ancelotti really understands that the attack line needs a truly talented striker.
I am afraid Ancelotti will only continue to rely on Bellingham and Vinicius and prefer to improve the defense line while the attack line needs players who are strong enough and younger, which is much better and makes more sense.

Actually Kalvin Phillips not leaves Leeds United if won't loss regular position exactly Manchester City have many top midfielder and make difficult for Kalvin Phillips keep in the regular position on every games. Have interested rumor from Newcastle United want to sign him after suspend of Sandro Tonali until the end this season and Newcastle need recovery on midfielder position. I think this good opportunity for Kalvin Phillips leaves Manchester City in winter transfer window opening because he still loss compete to be Manchester City regular players although he was be second season with Man City.

Actually problem for top players not comfortable although bigger payment salary with top teams but difficult with regular position, seems Kalvin Phillips will priority with another team who guarantee with more minutes playing and leaves Manchester City as soon possible if have any interested teams want to sign him.

[eebkhs]

Yes it's a problem they've had for years, I'm not trying to compare but in Alex Ferguson's time he could see and sign players they could then rely on. Not only that, they were also successful in recruiting young players or even promoting young players to the first squad and it was a success.
Now what they show is not like their glory days. There are some young players who stand out, like Garnarcho for example, but it still can't make up for their shortcomings in many ways.
They have a lot of work to do in this squad, and it can't be done in a short period of time.

How to bring Manchester United back to their glory:
1. The Glazer's family need to sell Manchester United to the rich person e.g. Sheikh Jassim.
2. Sack Ten Hag, hire top manager.
3. Sell useless players, sign top players.

In the next 3-5 years, we will see Manchester United can be as strong as Manchester City or Arsenal.

You typed it and it was very easy to do so, now will the Glazers sell the club to Sheikh Jassim the Qateris? Hell No! He already pulled out of the race to buy Manchester United and it sucks.
Jim Radcliffe has been in line to buy a part of Manchester United, reports says he'll be in charge of that from Monday. He should be a great support to Erik Ten Hag's system.

Sacking Erik Ten Hag would be dump! No I will not want to see to this even if we have seen most of his tactics going sideways.
He understands the fans ans knows what they want, if he is backed rightly with the perfect players ( God knows I want Kylian Mbappe )
He'll catapult Manchester United towards winning them first Premier League tittle.

There so many players not worthy of wearing that jersey all these years. All of these will be done on God and on Jesus  

Man United really needs a major overhaul, starting from the perspective of club officials and players. The major overhaul scenario you refer to is interesting, but seems very difficult to realize at this time. Firing Ten Hag is also not the right solution, because it might risk worsening the team performance. However management must also listen to fans encouragement. Jim Radcliffe could be the new hope for United revival, and we need to see how will he move in the january transfer window.

Bringing in Mbappe could be an instant solution, even though we know the price is very expensive, that is not a guarantee of success. Say like PSG currently, they have the depth of the squad and the most expensive players, but are not yet favorites in every competition.

Changing the framework of the team As A whole cannot be realized immediately in A short team, but team management can be carried out in stages because Manchester united really need A bigger team overhaul considering the team current performance is not very good, even this season has not been better than The previous season was even worse than the previous season, in my opinion Manchester united must immediately overhaul the team framework As quickly as possible on A regular basis for changes in the come season including selling and buy player who have the potential to change the team to be better in the future, slowly but surely.
