⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Blitzboy]

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.

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.

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.

I understand your Barcelona financial difficulties. They've been overspending for a long. Their poor money management has put them in a bind. Regarding João Félix, the issue is complicated. Barça may not have the money to sign Félix permanently, but he is dedicated to the club. If he's prepared to cut pay to stay, its a large ask but shows dedication. However, one must consider whether staying at a financially uncertain organization is advantageous for his career. Félix's choice is difficult, and only time will tell.

Currently, Alphonso Davies the left-back player and winger of Bayern Munich got an offer from Real Madrid he is linked to this team, which means there's a chance for Alphonso Davies to leave his team soon. the contract of this player will end in the summer of 2025 they had negotiations to extend his contract for 12 million euros salary be it seems this player asked for much more to stay in Bayer Munich or he can choose to play for Real Madrid in the next season.

Xavi is now targeting a new winger to be recruited by the club.

Barcelona have made contact with Girona winger Savinho ahead of a potential 2024 transfer as Xavi pushes for reinforcements in attack.

https://www.goal.com/en/lists/barcelona-transfer-talks-girona-savinho-xavi-extra-attacking-reinforcements-goal-shy-2023-24/

It seems like that barcelona is trying to hijack important player from girona. I hope savinho will stay much longer in the club. Will barcelona take another loan to buy him? this club has not yet sorted out its financial problem. Xavi was so dumb. This guy is always buying the players but barcelona was rarely making profit. Xavi can keep try to buy more players and keep the old players till those guys will be leaving with free agent. I shall give xavi an applause caused by his strategy will make barcelona goes bankrupt even faster.

barcelona rarely selling its player in profit. Barcelona has very big expenses and the club now in negative balance sheet. Xavi shall not be dumb enough to recruit the new players without even see the financial condition of club.
Im waiting for what's gonna be the next move from xavi. Hijacking competitor's player will not always become the best solution.

This has always been one of Xavi problems. He always try to bring in as many players as he can but more often than not, he holds on to some players until time runs out which leaves him on a free transfer.
In the last few seasons there have been several players like the old guard or De Jong who have returned to their home country of PSV.
Some young players have also left for the same status when if they wanted to make a profit they could have put them on the sell list.
But buying is not a viable option at the moment, because with their current finances spending a lot of money will be a bigger problem in the future. 

^ Yes, that is definitely true. Even though Barcelona is not in a very good financial situation right now, the decisions that have been taken by the coach have not been the best. First of all, I did not think that bringing in old players for so much money was actually worth it. But now I think the only way they can actually justify that is by selling him to the Saudi league for a lot of money. 

But still, they had to let a few important players go as free agents. I thought they could get a good amount of money for those players. But maybe Barcelona actually did not have enough money to renew the contract because we saw them not being able to register some players because of financial problems.

Leverpool had success with the transfer market early last season. They managed to buy some players who made the team better. There are currently rumours that Liverpool are preparing to sign Lucas Beraldo from Sao Paulo. Rumours circulated Beraldo's price tag of €23 million. It seems that this is related to the expiration of Joël Matip's contract at the end of the season. Liverpool seem to need a central defender. The 20-year-old is also wanted by Newcastle, West Ham United and Brentford.

[Jegileman]

The real position of felix in the club was a winger and he can also play as a striker too. People are talking about barcelona to make him to be a permanent transfer but how is it possible? How can barcelona pay 100m to the atletico madrid? Even some young players of barcelona have no demand. Fati, raphinha? Barcelona is in trouble right now. The club in the needs of new striker but barcelona is not capable enough in making the situation to be even better. Barcelona needs to make sure it will able to sell some players first.

This is the main problem caused by barcelona needs to raise the money first before try to get the new players.

Ansu Fati was already on loan to Brighton, they need to take a consideration to sell Raphinha and Pedri, they still have Gundongan, Pedri and De Jong. They need to let go one of their popular player if they want to sign Felix or Cancelo, if not then they will keep using a same lineup in the next season or many seasons in the future.

Adopting the same pattern of lineup when they’ve seen the lineup that will work best for them is not a good idea for Barcelona to do. They don’t need to be told further, this is even beyond the coach explaining that he needs this players on a permanent deal but the Barcelona’s management must have already seen how good this players have contributed to the league so far this season. Having them on a permanent contract will be the best for the team and for the future of the team too. The players are attached to the team and will love to continue their career there, why not then have them on a permanent deal? If Barcelona miss out on signing them, that will be a great loss to them.

Kvaratskhelia stated that Real Madrid was his favorite team since childhood and it seems he still maintains that dream even though he is still playing for Napoli. I think a player like Kvaratskhelia is suitable to play at Real Madrid and his speed, dribbling and finishing are beyond doubt. But coming back to the left winger position, Real Madrid already has an important figure there and he is Vinicius and it is impossible for Kvaratskhelia to want to sit on the bench as his back-up.

But I think he should hold on to his dream for a little longer and first focus on Napoli to win a few more titles. In the future we don't know what will happen and maybe if there is an opportunity, Kvaratskhelia could move to Santiago Bernabeu, but we all have to wait for an offer to come from Real Madrid.

Kvarat? really? even though he was picking madrid as his favorite club but that will not change the situation if he will never able to join in real madrid. Im not skeptical about his chance to join in real madrid but let's take a look at the fact.
Napoli had beaten by real madrid two times in a row. Nothing special from kvarat and he needs to work even harder. Madrid has some golden wingers in this era as well like vini and rodrygo.Mbappe may be joining in the real madrid soon caused by he is going to leave as free agent.
There's no place for him real madrid. Kvarat can put real madrid as his favorite but it seems like that time will tell the different thing. It's caused by the competitions in real madrid is very strict.
There was no place for him in the club. The better thing for kvarat to gain more experience by playing in the difficult league like EPL.

The thing is in my opinion, even if his team does not perform really well, I think Real Madrid is not going to be moving away from getting him as a player. If he is a good player individually, I think he will still be able to catch the eye of Real Madrid. And of course, for a lot of players, it is a dream to play for Real Madrid for the legacy and the stories of the club. The thing is we know if a player does not want to play for a certain team, The team actually cannot do anything to keep him. But at the same time if a club does not want to get a  certain player, the player cannot do anything to force themselves in the club. So he will have to impress Real Madrid with his performance.

[temple]

If not for the financial crisis occurring at Barcelona, I think Xavi would had loved signing him on a permanent deal, but with the high fee demanded by his club Atletico Madrid I think the only option Barcelona could use to keep him is by extending his loan this for another year until they're financially capable of getting him permanently.

Difficult to make permanent deal for Joao Félix exactly with Atletico Madrid won't get transfer fees under 100 million euro, its big amount for Barcelona have financial problem and still face many debt interest with several teams from Manchester City with Ferran Torres transfer. One option left for Xavi Hernandez ask to Atletico Madrid extend loan for Joao Félix and he will be one year later with Barcelona although little possible with impressive performance he has more valuable for selling next season.

Barcelona should think way how to get much money for recovery back up fees transfer from Joao Félix, seems selling Ansu Fati to Brighton Albion will be little help for Barcelona and get chance to make permanent Joao Félix from Atletico Madrid. How possibility with Joao Félix keep extend with Barcelona or next season will return to his team Atletico Madrid.

And sorry but Joao Felix is never worth 100 million. He isn't worth 80 million in my opinion as his score and assist records are surely too weak to justify these amounts of money for a transfer fee. It is also a crazy up and down with him. Then he scores an important goal on some day, but nothing happens for the next four weeks afterwards. This is really not enough and if the standard here is whether someone scores an important goal every now and then, lots of players can do that as there are so many that are not dumb or weak, but consistency is what mostly justifies high prices in my opinion. If a player performs on a high level consistently, that is where value is created for the club.

Why not move already?

Alphonso Davies has won it all as a player in the German Bundesliga League Division, why waist more years? He should better go for new challenges and try to accept the transfer request from Real Madrid. He has another chance of winning more trophies and adding to his cabinet with Real Madrid. Infact, when you play for Real Madrid, you're sure of winning the Champions League in the next five to six years.
This is not the opportunity to say no too. He better pack his bags and switch over.

Real Madrid anyways had a good eye for scouting players Alphonso Davies would be a great addition to the current squad of younger players.

[ZAINmalik75]

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.

It is true that goal scoring is the main aim for strikers, but sometimes teams need fair play rather than goal scoring. It's like a club has a striker and he can give him good goals, but the team needs game play to maintain the match. So Joa Filix is similar to this in that he couldn't find more goals in the game rather than a few, but his game play on the wing is quite good, which provides enough comfort to the club manager as well as to the team players.
 
So sorry for your opposition regarding Joa Filix's permeant move towards Barcelona. I mean, Barcelona needs to replace Joa Filix because Xavi needs a quality player who performs well at the right time, like in an Atlético Madrid match. Barcelona already have goal scorers Lawandoski, so they need a winger who creates a pressup on a wing and makes an opportunity for a player in the box.

Even though he is 24 years old, he is far from showing the required performance.

As long as Barcelona doesn't have a replacement for Felix and he do perfectly his actions and delivers when the club needs him, what are we now talking about again? He's the right frontline positioned to score goals for the club. He's 24years old and moving to Saudi Arabia might come to his mind, all he needs is time to bear and carry out his activities as a pro player. All these potential young players have their seasons and this current campaign is definitely not the best form for Joao Felix though he's trying his best to shoot in.

[QueenVera]

Ansu Fati was already on loan to Brighton, they need to take a consideration to sell Raphinha and Pedri, they still have Gundongan, Pedri and De Jong. They need to let go one of their popular player if they want to sign Felix or Cancelo, if not then they will keep using a same lineup in the next season or many seasons in the future.

If in the transfer market last summer Barcelona can use the free transfer player to be recruited, but for the transfer market now in my opinion it is difficult if you don't have money. Selling several popular players to cover the cost of purchasing Cancelo or wanting to permanent Felix is also not necessarily maximum because they need good players for the current team's needs. Unstable financial conditions can cause problems for the club because they have a number of players who receive large salaries.

The options for Barcelona may not be much but I'm sure they have a way to anticipate this problem. After qualifying for the last 16 of the Champions League even though the last match has not yet taken place, the team's needs will be far more important and they need several other players as supporters.

The January transfer market will introduce a lot of change to the Barcelona team, they'd want to cause a change to their squad no doubt, either to recruit new players or strive to keep the players they have with them on loan. They've got a fierce race to run from next year which would require stars in the team. The coach has to return to his blue print and team list. It's only best to do away with less important players to give room for accomodation and acquisition of new and already old players in the team.

 Barcelona has a target for both the UCL and the domestic league and it's only right that money is pumped in or generated by the team to fund and acquire more stars that befits the goal and help them through the set goal, Felix and Cancelo are doing exceedingly well for the team and I'm convinced that it'll be in the clubs interest to keep them. Everyone wants to go farther in tournaments which would get heated up from the second half of the season so it's expected that a whole lot of dramas would be put up by teams and there'd definitely be a number of players switch.

All these potential young players have their seasons and this current campaign is definitely not the best form for Joao Felix though he's trying his best to shoot in.

In fact, since Felix joined Barcelona, ​​he has become a differentiator and has contributed greatly to the current team. initially, Joao Felix's position was center forward. however, when he was loaned to Chelsea, he was rotated several times. Finally, this season Felix is ​​playing with Barcelona. we see his hard work, he never gives up. in fact, Felix has many opportunities to score goals. we can look at the data and statistics, or when playing with Barcelona. unfortunately, he has only scored two goals so far. I think he is very better, than Ferran Torres. After all, his job at Barcelona is not as a Goal Getter. he was assigned to support Lewandowski, as Targer Man. I think this is a matter of tactics and strategy that Xavi applies, but that doesn't mean players like Felix and his colleagues can't score goals.

So far, Felix has scored 5 goals in various competitions. 2 goals in La Liga, 3 goals in the Champions League. also, 3 assists.
For me, the contribution is quite large. in particular, when breaking down Atletico Madrid. In fact, I read from one of the newspapers, that Diego Simeone started praising him if his game started to look good again. I can have another view, if Joao were with the Gunners, he would be played as a productive center forward with the style and characteristics of Arsenal's game. if Felix can achieve his game, I mean, maturity and stability in his game, he will be one of the great stickers.

[Velvet78]

Luis Suarez is also expected to join Inter Miami for a one-year deal. It is like the good old Barcelona are being built around Messi again.    Of course I wouldn't expect the same performances as those times. But at least it would be lovely to watch the old teammates from Barcelona together again after a long time.

Messi is like the owner of the league now considering what he has been offered. Therefore I wouldn't expect them to stay for a short time there either. We can watch these players together for some good amount of time.

João Félix is a player with a good potential and I think he can definitely play for Barcelona for a longer time but I know Barcelona is not in a good situation to pay money for him and if the situation goes like this between João Félix and Barcelona he should leave the team whenever the loan is over and as you said it's hard for Barcelona to find replacements for this player.

Will barcelona take another loan to buy him? this club has not yet sorted out its financial problem. Xavi was so dumb. This guy is always buying the players but barcelona was rarely making profit.

I shall give xavi an applause caused by his strategy will make barcelona goes bankrupt even faster.

barcelona rarely selling its player in profit. Barcelona has very big expenses and the club now in negative balance sheet. Xavi shall not be dumb enough to recruit the new players without even see the financial condition of club.
Im waiting for what's gonna be the next move from xavi. Hijacking competitor's player will not always become the best solution.

  Oh you!
Barcelona is experiencing a certain chaos in transfers, but this is less about Xavi and more about the fact that the club has been on the verge of bankruptcy for the last couple of years, so even if they make the transfer they wanted, they cannot impose their conditions. As in the case of Dembélé, for example. Barcelona is now far from being an attractive club for good/near top players and all the problems come from this (naturally, unresolved financial problems also have a negative impact).

No doubt that if newcastle is looking for a new goal keeper. De gea is the only best option owned by newcastle right now. De gea is fully experienced goal keeper to play in EPL. No doubt that if eddie howe has been also trying to take him as probably secondary goal keeper. It will be a very nice offer for de gea caused by he will be playing in one of big club in the EPL right now. I do support this. It's really understandable for us to know why newcastle chooses de gea instead of other goal keeper.

I don't think if De Gea is the only option but signing De Gea is a good idea because Newcastle won't spend a lot of money. His status is a free agent, so Newcastle doesn't need to pay for transfer fees, Newcastle management only needs to negotiate for the amount of salary. Sure, he is an experienced goalkeeper and he was a strong goalkeeper in his prime era. I don't know if De Gea wants to be a secondary goalkeeper but since he has no many option to join a top club, it may be no a really bad decision to choose join Newcastle temporarily. At least, De Gea can get a contract for 1-2 years. However, I think De Gea is better to join a club that can give him a chance to play regularly as a main GK.

There are currently rumours that Liverpool are preparing to sign Lucas Beraldo from Sao Paulo. Rumours circulated Beraldo's price tag of €23 million.

The 20-year-old is also wanted by Newcastle, West Ham United and Brentford.

Recently Liverpool was sent their talent scout to Brazil to watching Lucas Beraldo performance and seems Liverpool now is very serious want him because in January possibly Liverpool will offering their bid and Lucas Beraldo is a very talented player in Sao Paulo he was being an key player of this team and he can be played as centre defender, left back, right back or sometimes played as holding midfielder so he is very suitable as the replacement of Joel Matip
Liverpool seems very serious want to strengthen their defensive lines because besides Lucas Beraldo reported Liverpool putting Lecce player Patrick Dorgu into their watchinglist but it's not easy for them to gets this player because they have to compete with Barcelona and besides that sport director of Lecce Stefano Trichera also don't want to sell Trichera at cheap price

Bringing over the former Manchester United top choice to St James Park stadium would be great news for th club and the players. Newcastle are on fire and they will never settle for lesser results, instead they will keep pushing for more prominent results in matches. David de Gea is the best backup replacement for Nick David Pope this season. He picked an injury against Manchester united and he will be ruled out for months, essentially a key threat for the Magpies this season, thus is the time for Eddie Howe and his team to scout a prominent goalkeeper and that's were the Spain international comes in the picture.

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".

I also guess it but I don't know what PSG management will do.
Sure, PSG and Mbappe seems like two inseparable things. People will be always linking both PSG and Mbappe. PSG also becomes a very popular team because they have Mbappe in their squad now. Their popularity will be decreasing if Mbappe decides to lave the club. However, I don't see something that PSG management can do to prevent Mbappe's departure.

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.

Mbappe already does his best for PSG. He won't think to stay anymore. I'm 100% sure he will leave PSG next year.
