⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Ryu_Ar1]

Marcus Rashford moving to Barcelona is very impossible because he's a main player for Erik Ten Hag and Manchester United. He's more consider to be a promising young player and he's always active for their league matches.

Rashford is struggling to maintain his position in the first eleven for the team after a drop in performance. The coach kept him out from his start position in their last game, because of his bad form of not scoring. But upon all that Manchester United will not let him go because of the influence he can bring even in games where he does not score. Do Barcelona really need more players? they keep buying players who are very talented but still they are not getting the results that they want.

He is still in a fairly comfortable situation actually when talking about the core line-up, it's just that the decline in performance that is currently happening makes Rashford lose momentum which makes him seem invisible even though he is in the core players from Manchester United. In addition, he still struggles with his ego in playing because indeed the mistakes that occur are always the same where he is always preoccupied with dribbling but sometimes forgets about his own colleagues.
As for Barcelona and Rashford? I think this is difficult. Barcelona with its financial condition that is still not very good now makes us realize that bringing a player like Rashford will not be easy. Rashford value even though his performance is declining now is still very large so Barcelona will still be very difficult if they want this young boy.

Once again there is some news about Robert Lewandowski and Saudi teams.
<...>

Yeah! Word 'round the campfire is that Lewa may be leaving Barca come next summer.  least that's what José Alvarez at El Chiringuito is saying.  Apparently Lewa's fat paycheck is cramping Barcas style when it comes to signing new talent.  And if some Saudi team can strike a deal with the Polish star striker, rumor has it Barcelona stands to pocket a cool 20-25 million euros out of the whole shebang.

The January transfer window coming closer, we awaits for the mega deals that will pull through in upcoming window. The UEFA Champions League is largely for elite competitive clubs, not struggling clubs that I'm fairly certain will not achieve any significant places. PSG can live without the attacker, even though he has played important roles in the club's development, but it doesn't imply they're no longer capable of competing for titles; they still have a long way to go. Kylian Mbappe's odds of staying at PSG or leaving remain 50/50.

I'm not sure if there will be a mega transfer because most players prefer to wait until the end of the season. I think only average players will move to other teams, they want to move to more potential teams to win the titles. For the players who play with the teams that aren't join UCL, they must be interested to move to the teams that qualify for the next round in UCL.

Sure, UCL is for elite teams, those teams who have good squad depth and quality players. It will be difficult to compete in UCL if a team only has average players, the teams in UCL are strong teams.

Anyway, I think Mbappe will stay in PSG until the end of the season. His contract isn't over in January yet. He will leave after his contract is over with PSG. It will be until the end of the season.

Rashford value even though his performance is declining now is still very large so Barcelona will still be very difficult if they want this young boy.

We  all know that Rashford has been and still is an important player for manchester united despite the fact that he's had a slow start this season and he's yet to recover his form, well Erik Ten Hag gave him alot chance to prove himself worthy of being in the starting eleven but he messed up the chances given to him, he couldn't get his head straight and made alot of blunder in his decision making in the final third and he needed to be dropped cause both the fans and managerial team where all tired of his blunders.
 
 However I think a switch to Barcelona won't be necessary because he's still a very good asset for Manchester United, despite the fact that he's out of form currently and dropped from the starting eleven, also I think getting Rashford out of United would come with a huge price, which I don't think Barcelona would be wiling to splash a heavy amount on him, except they're willing to him with one of their best youngsters.

The winter transfer window is closing in on us and I'm wondering more about what will happen to Mbappe. Because he has still not extended his contract with PSG. He normally has an option to extend by one year but he doesn't want to activate that for now seemingly. PSG are doing good in the Ligue 1 maybe but the Champions League title is more important to them.

As PSG don't look good in the Champions League now Mbappe might be fed up with being away from getting competitive for the title finally. I wonder if Real Madrid will make a contract offer in January. 

So far, I haven't heard any new rumors from Mbappe's statement after he announced his decision to terminate his contract in 2024. however, we don't know anything about what actually happened. it could be, if Mbappe has an unpublished deal. or, he is truly committed to his decision. Only one thing is certain, we will find out after the January transfer window opens. Will PSG still include him on the player sales list, with all the scenarios? Or, PSG will still try to keep him. So far, everything is just assumptions and what we speculate through reported rumors.

By the way, IMO, this season PSG is not targeting the Champions League trophy. however, they are more aimed at building the foundation of the team, and Luis Enrique is responsible as head coach of Paris Saint-Germain.
As for Madrid, they did not make any new statements after making their official claim on their official website. but who knows, that's just a scenario. but if Madrid can get Mbappe for free next summer, why would they bring him from PSG this January. Or, it could be that another club would be interested in bringing him. However, which club is willing to pay Mbappe's fantastic salary. There is no other way, but let's just wait and see how things develop next.

This is not only the case for this season because even the previous season by appointing Galtier as coach seems to realize that PSG's goal is not the Champions League because if they are aiming for the Champions Leageu then the choice is not Galtier as coach.
As for now they definitely want better things because for the previous 2 seasons they have always been stuck in the last 16 which makes Nasser Al Khelaifi feel upset even though it is not the main goal for the Champions League but they must strive to perform better.

PSG seems to be bored with winning the Champions League and prefers to play casually, but I'm sure PSG will win this season and provide lots of surprises for PSG fans, while for Mbappe, this depends on his wishes because if he joins Real Madrid, it's not certain. He got what he wanted, so it's better to continue his career at PSG as one of the best strikers.

From what they are saying, this "trouble" involving Mbappé and Real Madrid promises to have new and important news at the beginning of next year as the Spanish club will make a proposal to the French striker on January 1st, when the Frenchman's contract with the PSG enters the final six months, at which point Mbappé is free to negotiate a pre-agreement with any club he wishes.
However, Mbappé will not have much time to think about what to do, as the Spanish club would only give the player 15 days to respond about his possible transfer in the middle of the year.

Could it be that, if Mbappé does not actually respond, will Real end its negotiation attempts once and for all and continue with new signings?

[Velvet78]

Maybe Rapheal Varane can leave even if he was key alongside Lisandro Martinez to the top performance of Manchester United defense.
Erik Ten Hag has always build from the back, its the reason for a goalkeeper with good feet's and defender's with high confidence to hold the ball and build from the back! Casemiro leaving? Not too soon he would be around until the end of the season!

I also think they shouldn't part ways with all of these defensive players in January already. I don't have much expectation from Varane from now on. Maguire has even been selected for the Player of the Month prize newly.    It wouldn't be easy to take his usual place in the starting lineup for Varane from now on.

But Casemiro can still be useful if he concentrates on his game more. He cost his team too much in some recent games of him. He should be more careful with his aggressiveness during a game. He was one of the mainstays in the lineup before.

Nothing to happen with him. Mbappe's contract will end next year and we will be knowing what's gonna be his final decision once we will be going to the summer transfer season. Mbappe is going to determine his way once we are coming to the next year.
We are still far away from june. How can we expect to see the decision from mbappe once he was still under contract with PSG? mbappe will never try to leave from the club by himself. His contract must be terminated first. That's quite good to happen.
I hope that there will be a new thing to come like some potential clubs to sign him now. Mbappe is a really potential guy. We will see what's going to happen with him next year.
I have not clue for now caused by PSG is also putting very high price for him.

[TelolettOm]

Atletico madrid has been giving the price tag for felix and what's next? barcelona just need to pay the amount that demanded by atletico madrid and everything is clear now. laporta needs to think how to get 100 millions for him. Atletico madrid will not let that guy to leave from the club without 100 millions. So many times we have seen that how much price offered by atletico madrid to get felix. I remember the day when atletico madrid was offering him to the chelsea but due to the his very expensive price. Chelsea unwilling to get him.

Yep, it will depend on Barcelona whether they can pay 100 millions or not. If Barcelona has no money demanded by Atletico Madrid, simply Barcelona has no chance to sign Felix. Atletico Madrid must prefer to offer Felix to other teams. They know Felix is still young and has a lot of experience in varied competitions. He has a potential to develop in the future. So, Atletico Madrid won't hurry to sell Felix, they only want to accept the offer that can suit with their demand.

Maybe Laporta needs to sell some Barcelona players to get enough money to buy Felix. I heard a rumor that Barcelona has a plan to sell Lewandowski. If there is a Saudi club that wants to sign Lewandowski with a big offer, I am sure Barcelona will sell him.

[makishart]

Once again there is some news about Robert Lewandowski and Saudi teams. It seems Robert Lewandowski this time even closer to the Saudi teams. Lewandowski had offers from the Saudis in the last summer but he decided to stay in Barcelona and now he is even getting older the but the offer is available for him. However, Barcelona doesn't want to lose this player in the winter because they know they can't find replacements for Lewandowski during this time.

Glad to see that. It's time for lewandowski to go to the saudi pro league. he can also help barcelona to raise some money from selling him to the saudi pro league club too. He will be facing so many great players like ronaldo and mitrovic.

Im hyping SPL to get a lot of big players very soon. It seems like that this is a hard decision from lewandowski but he knows that if the club needs him to leave and join in the saudi pro league club.

SPL club is always giving really nice offer for european star players. Having him play in the saudi pro league is also helping the club a lot. I think that this is a win win solution for lewandowski and barcelona.

Lewandowski is going to receive very good salary from SPL clubs while barcelona got some good amounts of money to be used for buying the new players.

The best decision for both of parties.

The replacement of Robert Lewandowski won't be an easy task for Barca to carry out. Robert Lewandowski leaving Barcelona? Ofcourse that's not happening now, Xavi Hernandez and the players do actually need him to stand in the top nine, though he's not scoring goals or productive in the frontline but only his mere presence, he have achieved quite alot and he's now crawling as a main threat to his oppositions, nobody knows when the Poland international will bounce back to winning form. Robert Lewandowski might not be inform but Barcelona can not risks losing him to any formidable club in the January transfer market.

Atletico Madrid are welcome to Barcelona for signing João Félix regarding they have enough money until 100 million euro regarding current bid offer from Atletico, if Barcelona can't raise with bid offer amount from Atletico Madrid seems João Félix will release or try selling to the other who interested and have enough fund above 100 million euro. Currently Barcelona have difficult with their financial condition and little doubt for signing João Félix without selling some their player, have rumor with Saudi pro League teams interested with Robert Lewandowski and looks best option for Barcelona to get enough money and recovery fund for signing João Félix.

But have bad viewed if Barcelona try for selling Robert Lewandowski to Saudi Arabia clubs, they will not experienced center forward and current Barcelona's striker looks not promising performance like Lewandowski. What will do by Xavi Hernandez want to sign João Félix and he won't Robert Lewandowski leaves Barcelona for next season.

this situation is very difficult for Barcelona when they really need the two players Felix and Lewandowski, but the bad financial situation means that Barcelona management has to think harder about retaining these two players. for the current Barcelona coach, Lewandowski is a very important player in the attack line, but however, Felix is also very comfortable in his current position. In fact, these two players are very comfortable at Barcelona and for me, selling Lewandowski to the saudi arabian team would probably provide huge benefits big because saudi arabia team can afford to spend a lot money on european players and for me this is probably best way to make money and retaining players easier than retaining older players in long run it is not very profitable whereas Barcelona have some young players who are worth building around new talent.

Felix loan period will end in coming year If Barcelona does not try to keep him, they will definitely lose this player soon.

Yes, if they lose Lewandoski now then they will find it difficult to find the right figure to be able to replace Lewandowski's role, and I also haven't heard news that Barcelona is targeting front-line players who have more or less the same position as Lewandowski. They brought in plyers with difficulty from Bayern Munich, because the process took a long time and with tough negotiations, then if they only use players in a short time it will also be very unfortunate. Moreover, his game for Barcelona was also not disappointing, he contributed a lot to Barcelona achieving positive results.

Surely we are familiar with the name coach Jorge Sampaoli and now he is rumored to be the next coach of Lyon. We know that currently Lyon continues to sink into the relegation zone and some time ago they also fired Fabio Grosso from his coaching chair. This will be Jorge Sampaoli's next career journey in Europe after the last time he managed Sevilla in mid-2022. I think Jorge Sampaoli is quite good and he has quite a lot of experience in previous European teams and he was also the coach of the Argentine national team in 2017. Let's just wait and see whether this rumor will be true considering that Lyon really needs a good coach at the moment.

Jorge Sampaoli isn't a good coach, if he's good he wouldn't moved from one team to another for a year. But Lyon is definitely need a new coach right now, this season is the worst situation for them since they're currently at the bottom.

I don't think this is because of both Malo Gusto and Bradley Barcola left, they're not playing really good in the new teams they've joined.

Yes, Kylian Mbappe is indeed a high quality player with his skills so it is natural that a lot of media will associate this player with a popular club and in fact Mbappe also deserves to be at a big club that has been able to win the Champions League title but the club that owns this player charges a very high price and It seems like no European club will get a player at a very high price except only a Saudi Arabian club can pay the contract fee offered by PSG, whatever the amount, the Arab club can afford to pay it, but the fact is that Mbappe refuses every offer from Saudi Arabia. He still wants to have a career in Europe. and I'm not sure where he will go, but what is certain is that he will join a big club in Europe.

Let's just wait and see whether this rumor will be true considering that Lyon really needs a good coach at the moment.

Jorge Sampaoli is 63 year old coach who is one of the coaches with quite lot of experience managing big European teams.
The news that he will coach Lyon has been spreading since few days ago and he is expected to be able to bring Lyon through or avoid the relegation zone because Lyon performance under coach Fabio Grosso has been very bad.
There was no good progress shown by Lyon with Fabio Grosso and this dismissal was carried out with the aim of getting a replacement coach who was much better and could provide real performance that would be successful in competing in Ligue 1.
For now, temporary coaching is handled by Sage and maybe later when the transfer window opens, Lyon can bring in Jorge Sampaoli as the real head coach.
