⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[QueenVera]

The confirmation about the rumor was just coming after some MU fans were asking romano regarding the situation in manchester united. I have seen that so many news were published it even goal as well. It's not his mistake.
There are so many rumors spreaded in the public but it needs time till there will be a trusted source who will clarify that for us. Romano has confirmed it if MU will not try to get him.

Acmilan is happy caused by romano's confirmation regarding possibility for the big clubs to get maignan but MU was not only the one being linked to the maignan. There was also other club like chelsea.
It has not yet confirmed by romano regarding the situation of chelsea.

Maignan move to either United or Chelsea is still yet to be confirmed, so it's best tagged a rumor but analyzing the rumor, we see that United are in dire need of a goalie. Their signee and current first choice Onana isn't even doing his best and task he was put in the club to do. United's are suffering alot and bringing in a new goalie wouldn't be much of a bad idea as currently, Maignan is doing excellent in his team.

 For Chelsea, he'd only be an unnecessary addition,  because they already have a current standing goalie with another who's in form reasonably and is not even used, addition of Maignan will only mean that theyd bench the other two for as ling as ever and there would be no use for them and this will only cause depreciation to the goalie's ability.

Continuing the conversation about Man United Goalkeepers, Newcastle seems to be interested in adding David De Gea to their lineup with Nick Pope being injured. If United do go for another Goalkeeper in the winter transfer window, de Gea should most likely make a move as being 3rd GK option for Man United doesn't seem to be a suited role for a player of his caliber. 

David De Gea would not want to return to Manchester United, hasn't he learnt from.the return of Cristiano Ronaldo's return to Manchester United already? That'll be totally dump move. Never you build bonds with whoever disrespected you, build boundaries.

David De Gea has rather been linked to Newcastle United and Barcelona. Amongst them both, I feel like he'll want to remain in Spanish League so he could be close to his family. Newcastle United should make a bold move for Arsenal's Aaron Ramsdale who's eager to move to a club he plays regularly.

David De Gea has been without a club since he left Manchester United and I think it might be connected to his high wage. He was receiving 374 thousand pounds per week in his former club and I doubt if any club will be willing to pay a goalkeeper such a high wage. Except he is willing to reduce his earnings, might not get a club in the next transfer window. However, Newcastle is wealthy enough to pay his high wage but they might not want to spend much money on a 33-year-old goalkeeper.

Aaron Ramsdale would be a good replacement for the injured Nick Pope because he is still young and has more fruitful years ahead. He needs more playing time because he is a good goalkeeper but the top form of David Raya has kept him on the bench for too long. Will Newcastle be willing to splash £50 million that might be demanded by Arsenal for him to move to Newcastle United? Nick Pope will recover from the injury in four months which could give the English stopper more time to prove his worth in the Premiership.

If you see Felix's condition in Barcelona, Xavi should start preparing money to buy him. After scoring the decisive goal, I think Xavi is increasingly convinced that Felix can adapt to Barcelona better. Maybe Barcelona can take advantage of this January transfer. It seems that Felix failed to thrive with Simeone and got into trouble. His performances were very declining and different when he was at Benfica. This kept Simone from giving away many minutes so he went to Chelsea last season and is currently at Barcelona.

Yeah I am definitely sure that Xavi wants to sign Joa Filix permanently for Barcelona because he gave him such beautiful results of his standard regarding what the club needs. He scored winning goals for Barcelona, secured three points, and finished in 3rd place in the La Liga standings.
I have the reference from some media reports that Barcelona wanted to sign both Joa Filix and Joa Cancel permeantly in the January transfer window. The Joa Filix fee is $40, and Joa Cancel is $15 million. But anyway, both of them play their best for a club and make their share with Barcelona. So I think both players have too small values, and the club is stuck with financial citizens, so the club has a good opportunity to sign both permeantly to make his team so strong.

If United do go for another Goalkeeper in the winter transfer window, de Gea should most likely make a move as being 3rd GK option for Man United doesn't seem to be a suited role for a player of his caliber. 

Manchester United are not going to go for David Degea because they already have two other goal keepers that can come in should Onana leave for AFCON. Newcastle is the favourite to land him because Nick Pope is gonna be out for like 5 months and they need another experienced keeper to come in for him. I wish Degea just accepts the offer but the big problem is his wages. Before him leaving Manchester United he was one of the highest earners and I don’t think Newcastle will pay him that much.

I still don't understand why David De Gea didn't sign a new contract at the end of last season. It makes no sense for him to be without a club after leaving Manchester United. He is only 33 years old. Many goalkeepers have played and are still playing at the highest level at that age. David De Gea could also sign for Newcastle United and continue to play at the highest level in the Premier League. I think it would be the right deal for both parties. If David De Gea returned to Manchester United today, he would undoubtedly be in the starting eleven.

Degea situation with the Board of Manchester United got sour and that’s why he left. He felt that he was disrespected and he didn’t sign the new contract again. Clubs came for him but his wages were scaring to been paid. Although he had great offer from the Saudi league but decides to stay in Europe because of his family who have already gone fond of the place and that’s why we still hear he is around Manchester.

From Xavi's perspective, he definitely wants Joao Felix to stay, but again, whether Barcelona's finances are capable of doing that or not. I think it is quite difficult for Barcelona to make Joao Felix permanent from Atletico and it looks like they will have to sell one or two players so that the transfer can be realized. I don't deny that Joao Felix's appearance was one of the keys to Barcelona's victory and I think he would also be very happy if Barcelona could consider making him permanent.

If Xavi does not have Joao Felix in his team as a full-time player when his loan expires, they will be missing out on a huge opportunity that will cost them a lot of money. I'm not sure how deep Barcelona's financial crisis is, but in any case, they should look for a way to bring this player in as a full-time player. Since joining the team this season, Joao Felix has successfully integrated himself into the team and contributed to its success. If Barcelona has to sell some players in order to make his contract permanent, they should not hesitate. They desperately need Joao Felix, so they must do anything to have him on their side as soon as possible.

Gabriel Jesus is no worth than Vlahovic. Actually I think they are at least equal in quality and I also think that a highly technically versed player like Jesus fits better into the team, the system and the style that Arsenal is playing. This could just be my taste and I wonder what everyone here thinks, but what did Vlahovic achieve in his career? Everyone thought he would instantly breakthrough at Juventus, but he isn't as strong as most people thought because he scored so many goals at a young age for Fiorentina. This doesn't mean he is bad, not at all, but we are talking about a player who went from Fiorentina to Juventus and got worse.

I hate to see when people speak without facts. You know ball and in addition to all you have pointed out, Jesus has had 14 appearance this season and has scored 5 goals while Vlahovic has seems to have appeared 13 times with 5 goals, where exactly is any argument needed. The two of them are good but with Jesus position, he ought to have done better by far this season, look at his friends like Saka and Nketkiah with more goals than him despite the little appearance differences.

Gabriel has done a very significant amount of goals on Manchester City and I believe it was because of his records he attracted many people attention but Arsenal got the bid but this consistent injuries is bad for Arsenal business and I think they will sell him very soon than expected. This was how Hazard became burden to Real Madrid until man became a norm benching device that was never useful and couldn't be sold,  I hope Arsenal are not following the same route of investment.

Are you arguing about some decimals? Vlahovic scored 15 goals in 36 games, which is a rate of 0.417 goals per game for Juventus Turin across all competitions. Gabriel Jesus scored 11 goals in 26 games, which is a rate of 0.423 goals per game for Arsenal.

When a club wants a new striker because they see the need for it, wouldn't it be comprehensible if they look for an alternative player who clearly outcompetes the existing ones? We are talking about Arsenal, it is not like they have to take whatever player they is. They are also not poor.

The discussion isn't really about whether one player is 3% better than the other player, but about whether Vlahovic would be a substantial improvement over the existing situation. I doubt that it is. That's my point.

It's not just about Joao Felix but it's about many other players Barcelona took for loan and at the end of the season, they had to take these players permanently or they are not going to have many players and this is a problem for Xavi and Barcelona in the next season. Maybe they should even start thinking about this problem even now.

But on the other hand this will be another stupid decision made by Mbappe if he survives and extends the contract again at PSG.
I know it is very good for finances but if he wants his achievements to be greater than now then PSG is not the right club for him if he expects more achievements.
Moreover, if we look at the drama that previously occurred, it is actually quite ridiculous if Mbappe continues to be at PSG.
PSG is indeed a very good club but only for domestic size, not big competitions so if in the end Mbappe decides to extend the contract again with PSG then we know what the end will be for Mbappe's future.

You're right, it is a stupid idea to stay a longer time in PSG. However, I'm sure PSG must try to keep him and make another sensational offer on the new contract extension. But Mbappe must be aware of his career, it never grows better if he always stays in PSG. So, we can assume that he probably prefers to leave PSG in the next year.

PSG is surely very dominating domestic competition but it never has a capability to win UCL trophy. Mbappe's dream is to win UCL trophy with Real Madrid, he wants a new challenge in a new league. So, I also think he won't be interested to consider a new contract with PSG. He needs a bigger club with a better history in winning international competition like UCL.

I am damn sure that PSG will come up with the next surprise for Mbappe. If he leaves, imagine what the damage would be on PSG as a brand in the world. I think these two terms "PSG" and "Mbappe" are firmly intertwined whenever you talk about PSG. I would be that in most places around the planet when you say a sentence like "what do you think about PSG" the answer would almost always include Mbappe. "Yes PSG, I know, Mbappe is the best player".

This is what is valuable for Khelaifi and he will try to not lose it. But how much would he be willing to pay for it? At the same time Mbappe knows that his clock is ticking and he is getting older. If he wants to make history, he can't do that with PSG.

David De Gea would not want to return to Manchester United, hasn't he learnt from.the return of Cristiano Ronaldo's return to Manchester United already? That'll be totally dump move. Never you build bonds with whoever disrespected you, build boundaries.

David De Gea has rather been linked to Newcastle United and Barcelona. Amongst them both, I feel like he'll want to remain in Spanish League so he could be close to his family. Newcastle United should make a bold move for Arsenal's Aaron Ramsdale who's eager to move to a club he plays regularly.

David De Gea has been without a club since he left Manchester United and I think it might be connected to his high wage. He was receiving 374 thousand pounds per week in his former club and I doubt if any club will be willing to pay a goalkeeper such a high wage. Except he is willing to reduce his earnings, might not get a club in the next transfer window. However, Newcastle is wealthy enough to pay his high wage but they might not want to spend much money on a 33-year-old goalkeeper.

Aaron Ramsdale would be a good replacement for the injured Nick Pope because he is still young and has more fruitful years ahead. He needs more playing time because he is a good goalkeeper but the top form of David Raya has kept him on the bench for too long. Will Newcastle be willing to splash £50 million that might be demanded by Arsenal for him to move to Newcastle United? Nick Pope will recover from the injury in four months which could give the English stopper more time to prove his worth in the Premiership.     

David De Gea was ready to see his salary deducted so he could stay a season further with Manchester United but the club left him hanging without proper communication. Is that a good way to treat a legend?
I'd love the switch to Barcelona not to sign him for a long term but for the next six months. It's just that, Ter Stegen is a better Goalkeeper with his legs and we'll confident than David De Gea. The transfer window would be here in couple three weeks ahead.

Ramsdale also should go on loan because Pope will not be out for too long. There'll be difficulty when Pope returns, he should have talks with the manager if not he shouldn't go.for a long term signature if no longer term plans with him for the club. Doubt they'll change him for Pope.

Álex García the player of Girona, is linked to Barcelona and we can even expect to see him playing for Xavi and his teams in the future.
Girona was amazing so far in La Liga and one reason for their good performance is their midfielder, Álex García. He has an effective role in his team so far.
Álex García said he loves to play for Barcelona and he was even interested in playing for Barcelona when he was younger.

Rumors are still around Manchester United and now it is reported that they have prepared a £60m offer for Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan. It's a bit strange to see Manchester United's decision because they got their goalkeeper last summer, namely Andre Onana, and now they are preparing to offer another option in January.

I think management is aware that the arrival of Andre Onana has actually worsened the performance of the Red Devils and they have continued to concede goals since the goal was guarded by the former Inter goalkeeper. Erik Ten Hag, who chose Andre Onana, also seems to be starting to let go of the responsibility of the goalkeeper from Cameroon. Well, Manchester United's new transfer round will soon heat up again.

MU is trying to patch up the holes, but everywhere you look, there's a gap that needs fixing. The players' spirits seem low, and there's a lack of motivation on the field. I think what MU urgently needs right now is discipline and a team identity. Whether they recruit a new goalkeeper or stick with Onana doesn't matter much if they continue to play like this.

The way Ten Hag and the MU leadership hesitate to discipline Rashford for his actions shows how dysfunctional the team's internal dynamics are. In this situation, how can they improve the current state of affairs? Therefore, I believe MU doesn't need to waste money on recruiting new players; they need to sort out internal issues before any real personnel restructuring can happen.

Barcelona's finance will never capable to get felix from atletico madrid as a permanent transfer. barcelona has no money to target the top striker and how can barcelona tries to make felix as a permanent transfer?
Barcelona is not only in a disaster but it can go bankrupt if the club does nothing. It's just the matter of time until everything will be going even worst for barcelona. barcelona is always facing negative on its balance sheet.
This club seems not realiable enough to be used as a team to improve the experience of players. Will felix still accept to receive very small salary like that?
Barcelona was not paying felix a lot. Felix shall use his sense rather than try stay even longer in the club with small salary. His family shall tell him to leave from barcelona if catalan still offers non sense salary for him.
Life must go on.

Barcelona leave above their means in the past decades and they're serving the punishment in this present day. Everything comes with a price and they also pull stunts for these elite clubs to either drop or become more serious. Poor decision making is the only thing that render both club's account meaningless and on hold because they're facing much problem than they could ever imagine. Perhapes the boards are working on instructing and fixing it with immediate time. Joao Felix might never be a permanent signing for Barca because his presence require more spending and I'm confident Felix is ready to reduce his salary just to play for the club.

But aside from the interest shown by Xavi Hernandez on the retainership of the player, Joao Felix, his fans in the Atletico Madrid have also gone wild on him because of his remarks that says that it will be better for him to remain in the Barca's team instead of returning. Joao Felix took the route of supporting Barcelona, his contracted team against the Atletico Madrid which one could just result in saying that could be because he's with the team now but he seems to be very passionate about Barcelona and want to find a way he will be retained after the contract exhausts. But do any one think Barcelona will retaine Joao Felix in the Barcelona should Atletico Madrid opens such Windows that'll move Joao Felix?

Xavi Hernandez pattern favors important young players, more reason every players adapts quickly to his pattern of game. Joao Felix finds comfort in Barcelona were he sees enough game playing time but he always faces challenges under Diego Simeone in Atletico Madrid. There's hugh difference in his current club and his former, he's appreciative of every step he took to make this bold move to join the Catalans and he's not looking back because he's keen on achieving more prominent development in his new club.

Let's wait what decision will be made by him. Felix was important but his price is making barcelona to do U turn for him. In fact, barcelona was not able to win the previous game without felix. I know that his performance is not that impressive but he was able helping his team to win the game even though it was going through difficult way. Felix is going to happy if that's gonna be real but there is also main problem that will come for barcelona. It will be getting another sanction from la liga.
barcelona has FFP that will be preventing the club to get another player with expensive price. Barcelona's financial condition is not that good right now and people are hoping that is going to come true. Im not putting a lot of hope for barcelona.
The club can still find alternative player which very cheap price. There's no need to force itself to buy the club when the financial doesn't even support it. Felix deserves to be in a better place.

I once read in the local media that Barcelona has a debt of 207 million euros. That debt is a new player transfer fee, if I'm not mistaken it was the month of writing it was made last October. But there is indeed no official data from Barcelona. There is no data on the income obtained by the club and everything used. If I'm not mistaken, FFP provides a reference to the operating costs of clubs should not exceed the amount of money they make from their own income. I saw the 2022 economic report Barcelona on the https://www.fcbarcelona.com/en/club/organisation-and-strategic-plan/commissions-and-bodies/annual-reports.

In my opinion, Felix is ​​not of Barcelona quality. If you have scored 2 goals in 12 games and have such bad statistics as a striker, if he cannot be permanent in Barcelona, ​​Atletico Madrid may not want him and I think he may now turn his route towards Saudi Arabia. Even though he is 24 years old, he is far from showing the required performance.
