⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Huppercase]

Chelsea have enough money to buy new players including Osimhen but the real problem is the Napoli president who already refused to sell the player last summer transfer window in a price under €200k if I am not mistaken..
Osimhen actual value is €120k and I believe it is exaggerated. His real value shouldn't pass €75k this season since he isn't playing as he used to be nor Napoli performing good as they used to do. Since there is some tension between him and Napoli's staff previously then it might be an opportunity for Napoli to generate enough money to buy 3 or even 4 players to consolidate the team and improve their ranking in the Serie A but also in European competitions..

It's not about having the money, but you have to follow the Fifa rule so as to not violate financial fair play policy, if you do your point will be deducted and that's exactly what happened to Juventus last season and Everton this season. You can see that Everton has demoted by -10 points from the table ranking, if Chelsea spend a lot, they will enter into debt and I think they have gotten the best deal of players before the beginning of the season, u don't know why they can't perform as it was supposed to be in with all the hype around the new signees.

Osimhen coming to Chelsea is not visible, people are only pushing that because he like Chelsea club as a kid but you and I know what is inside a business. Even as an adult, you may like something but the professional and career comes before anything and you might not considered such deal.

But let's be straight here, for how long has it been a topic that Barcelona is broke? For how long has it been a topic that many clubs are deeply indebted? Sometimes I feel like they are operating like governments, they are able to raise the bar whenever they want and get themselves out of trouble however they want. If all these debts were as bad as it is often portrayed in the media, why was there never a club going fully broke and being relegated to the second league or sanctioned or whatever penalty would have to apply then? I am talking about the big clubs here because as we have seen they are willing to punish a club like Everton for some things and Juventus Turin was also pretty lightly penalized, but what about the big clubs? I doubt that Barcelona will ever go broke because they can refinance debt with tricks and legal loopholes.

Talking about Barcelona's debt will never end because basically apart from the fact that they have debt it is true there is always news that continues to be exaggerated which makes this a little complicated because sometimes even small news about Barcelona's debt can be raised and dramatized by several media to make it look bigger so that readers' interest is directed at them.
But indeed in this case saying bankrupt is also impossible for now, Barcelona has poor financial management and we know that but on the other hand when there is a penalty for Barcelona because they are bankrupt it will not be possible. It needs to be realized that La Liga is big because of Madrid and Barcelona so why can they be free when their debts are still piling up because if in the end if there is a penalty about Barcelona then surely La Liga's reputation is also tarnished which in turn this can reduce the interest of the audience because we know big clubs like this have the power to increase broadcasting rights.

Victor Osimhen seems to want to take every chance to leave Napoli. I think it is clear that he is unhappy playing there. Last season he was one of the best strikers together with Haaland. This season he is not so good compared to last season but we know he has a big potential. I think he could be a good signing for Chelsea or Manchester United. Both teams need a player like Osimhen. Osimhen also needs a new challenge.

Considering the possible departure of Osimhen from Napoli, it seems unlikely that he would choose to join a team like Chelsea, where there is a lack of clarity about the stability of their coach. As a talented player, Osimhen undoubtedly desires to progress in his career and achieve great success with his team. Therefore, if he were to leave Napoli, it seems more probable that he would opt for a team with a higher likelihood of achieving great things. For example, a team like Real Madrid, which is at a higher level than Napoli and has a rich history of achieving great things in the world of football.

Considering the possible departure of Osimhen from Napoli,

They are now talking about a possible renewal of his contract.

His number this season are just terrible btw.

[TelolettOm]

the issue of disharmony within Man Utd has already been heard quite a bit, before Onana came to Man Utd, Man Utd management reportedly wanted Emiliano Martinez instead of Onana but Ten Hag did not agree with Man Utd management, so actually the recruitment of goalkeepers at Man Utd was influenced due to Ten Hag's decision, in the next transfer season there is a big possibility that Man Utd will hunt for another goalkeeper to accompany Onana, it is also possible that they will continue to target Martinez and 1 or 2 of the existing back-up goalkeepers at Man Utd will be sold to reduce the salary burden.

You're right. It is an old issue that there is bad relationship in Man United. It is not only among the players but it is also related to coach and Man United management as well. If signing Onana is the request from Ten Hag, Man United management must very disappointed with Ten Hag now. They already suggested a better option for the new goalkeeper but Tan Hag refused it. Now, Ten Hag can see that he chooses the wrong option since Onana often played very badly.

Sure, Man United management must try to sign Emiliano Martinez again in the next transfer window. However, I don't think Emiliano Martinez is a very great goalkeeper since his performance looks not really impressive so far. He got many conceded goals both in EPL and Conference League. Aston Villa probably won't let him go because he is their main goalkeeper.

I see in the news that Real Madrid have already agreed on Mbappe's transfer to Real Madrid, but I can't understand whether these are just rumors, or have they already decided everything? Mbappe will receive 35 million euros a year and will be Real Madrid's highest paid player. And it seems that the transition will only be possible in the summer, when his contract with PSG ends.

As far as I know it is not really clear whether they already get the agreement on Mbappe's transfer. So, we can assume it is just a rumor. But if Mbappe has no contract anymore with PSG, it should be easier for Real Madrid to sign him. His salary will be the obstacle for other teams to sign Mbappe. I think Real Madrid is the only team that has the ability to sign him. Mbappe also said that he has a dream to play with Real Madrid in the future.

Talking about Barcelona and some players in this team, it seems they should say goodbye to their player Oriol Romeu because Girona wants their player back in the team.
Oriol Romeu joined Barcelonato as be replacement for Sergio Busquets and this player had a good performance during that time, 885 minutes in 17 games, and one assist is all he did for Barcelona using the time when he was playing for Xavi and his team so far. But Girona wants to have Oriol Romeu back in the team.

Considering the possible departure of Osimhen from Napoli,

They are now talking about a possible renewal of his contract.

His number this season are just terrible btw.

By principle, both parties already made a deal. They are only waiting for the contract to be made and then signed. Thus it appears to be that he will remain at Napoli because once the agreement becomes official the transfer fee will turn out to be pricey.

Chelsea is the leading club keen on taking Osimhen. The agreement news is a significant blow for Chelsea because Osimhen is one of the best strikers that anyone could hope to find in the transfer market right now. The club can either push ahead and gamble spending a hundred million in taking Osimhenand or pick another striker in the market.

This season he is not so good compared to last season but we know he has a big potential. I think he could be a good signing for Chelsea or Manchester United. Both teams need a player like Osimhen. Osimhen also needs a new challenge.

Chelsea and Manchester United are very willing to spend big money to get Victor Osimhen, we see how Chelsea increases their offer for Moises Caicedo because Liverpool are interested in the player and Brighton will only sell to the club that offers the highest price, and Manchester United is willing to spend 75 million euros only for Rasmus Højlund from Atlanta who appeared ordinary at his old club, Napoli only needed to say the desired price and the two clubs would compete to get the striker.
However, stating that it would be better for Osimhen to move to one of these two clubs may not happen because we see that both clubs are both in bad form at the moment, if there is another club that is also interested in him, maybe it would be better for Osimhen to choose that club rather than Chelsea or Manchester United.

[Sakanwa]

Not only that Chelsea will also sell some players who cannot be relied upon, for example Gallagher will be sold in order to add money to their new player spending in January, it may be true that Chelsea wants to continue negotiating about Osimhen but I'm not too sure what Chelsea will get, the price is expensive and Osimhen will be difficult to sell in the near future.

Chelsea will definitely sell off many players just like they did in the summer to reduce the wages, the players that could leave would be those out on loan and those with contract extension issue and are surplus to requirements. But Connor Gallagher isn’t going anywhere, in the summer he was actually up for sale but Chelsea opted against selling to AC Milan and it was the best decision because had they sold him it would have been bad for them. This season Gallagher has been their standout player and that has earned him the vice captain position in the club. He has won the most tackles, done the most interceptions and created the most chances for Chelsea this season. Although Chelsea is having a bad season but Gallagher is definitely having a fine season if I am to rate him

Chelsea definitely have a lot of works to do in the transfer Market,and if Pochetino is to remain at Chelsea,he must have a way of making them start to win games, because it is very bad that Chelsea is a big team,and they are playing and getting this kind of poor result.At first,I loved what he was doing, bringing young players that have the willingness to play,and letting go of old players who seemed lazy,but uptill now,be hasn't found the right set of players that can get him good results,.maybe what he needs now is to go to the January transfer Market,and sign some player who can match Chelsea's style of play.If he can get a standard midfielder and a sharp attacker,then I think they are good to go,and will be able to compete with other teams in the premier league.

Barcelona's financial not balance yet with player in and out because many time spent much money for signing any player but sold them with most cheapest values. Its classic problem faced by Barcelona exactly when signing Countinho they have pay much money for transfer and still left debt with other team when signing other player like Ferran Torres. Can't find the ending way when talking about Barcelona financial and they still can't recovery and has healthy financial after several years faced with financial problem.
I think Barcelona stop signing player have contract with their teams, if want have balance financial condition sign player have been free agent although with lower qualities but Barcelona hasn't debt difficult for paying full payment fees transfer. To get fresh money by selling some player, Barcelona difficult selling which one player has higher market values right now but they are not regular position.

Barcelona has been cornered by financial problems for several seasons. that limits Xavi's desire to bring in the players he wants. If Barcelona had the financial strength of a club like Madrid or PSG, I'm sure they would be much stronger than they are now.
It is reported that this season Xavi has come to the club management to discuss several names that Barcelona can negotiate with. but the results may not be published yet. if they bring in some potential players, maybe the target for Xavi will also be increased for next season.

[TastyChillySauce00]

Barcelona is still on the way to recruiting the new striker but the financial trouble has become the main problem that was preventing barcelona to recruit the top striker. I have heard some names even haaland being linked to the barcelona but im not even believing it.
In my understand if barcelona doesn't have good financial problem at this moment and how can barcelona buy haaland's release clause? barcelona has been linked to the more names and the latest one was greenwood. I have heard that greenwood has been linked to the barcelona.
It has reported by several legit sources if barcelona is still monitoring him at this moment. It's possible for barcelona to recruit him as a new striker. Barcelona is still very good enough to recruit him as a new striker,.
Greenwood's price is not that expensive too. The main problem owned by barcelona to search for the best striker at this moment. I hope greenwood will be going to the barcelona.

I hope that barcelona is really having interest to recruit him soon. Greenwood was not that good but consider his price is quite cheap and he was experienced enough makes me think that if barcelona will buy him to be a new striker.

There's no denying that the financial situation is a headache for Barca and coach Xavi. However, achieving good results with limited finances speaks volumes about Xavi's coaching prowess. It's not always about spending big money on buying; look at what teams like Man United and Chelsea have achieved despite their significant spending? Quality players are crucial, but I believe what matters most is building a distinctive style of play. Xavi is doing this quite well, and I have confidence that it will only get better if he continues with this football philosophy.

When Xavi has perfected Barca's style of play, he will know the players the team truly needs. At that point, if Barca's financial issues are resolved, I believe Barca will come back very strong. The emphasis should be on building a unique identity and gameplay, and once that foundation is solid, the right players can be identified to enhance the team. Financial constraints don't always limit success; it's often about smart management and a clear footballing philosophy, something Xavi seems to be instilling at Barca.

His number this season are just terrible btw.

Personally he remains a top lad and has done well for the club from last season to this one. There are games you watch and you see how most of his mates are selfish to pass him to ball to score. I agree with your opinions but it all results from the problems within the club, the entire squad have seen a recent drop in form.

They be wanting to extend his contract for a year further, I feel like that's a strategy to increase his value, since he's been rumoured to leave the club. I see they want to make good fortune from his sale because his current worth is worrying as his performance dropped in Seria A.

[Nheer]

Osimhen coming to Chelsea is not visible, people are only pushing that because he like Chelsea club as a kid but you and I know what is inside a business. Even as an adult, you may like something but the professional and career comes before anything and you might not considered such deal.

Visible or not Chelsea desperately needs a striker and not just any striker a world class striker, the whole club is aware of this already and they are considering a lot of strikers though but the Nigerian forward will definitely suit Chelsea better. If Osimhen really wants to leave and Chelsea has enough money to buy him then it will be a done deal even though it will not be easy as it seems.

I Just saw an update from Fabrizio Romano stating that Victor Osimehn is about to be handed a new contract which will make him one of the highest earning players in the history of the team and new deal will be valid till 2026. This is sad news for Chelsea if Osimhen signs this contract because it will be even more difficult to sign him to Chelsea.

Christopher Nkunku will soon be back and Chelsea might have the strong attacking force it deserves. Victor Osimhen will be a perfect striker for Chelsea but I think the club should check if the French striker will put up a good performance after his recovery. The only impediment to Chelsea signing the Nigerian striker is FA financial regulation, aside from that, the club can afford to get him.

The ball is in the court of Victor, he might decide to extend his contract or leave for another club. He recently stated that he has put his issues with Napoli behind him and that he has forgiven them for the insult he received on their social media platform. If he is still happy in Italy, I think he would sign a new deal, otherwise, he might consider leaving because many clubs can give him a more lucrative contract than what he would be offered by Napoli.

Giorgio Chiellini has confirmed that he has retired from football and this is indeed the right time for him to hang up his boots. He retired at the age of 39 and as one of the best defenders ever, he was an important leader for the Italian national team and also Juventus in the past decade. Giorgio Chiellini is a legend and a great example for the next generation of Italian football.

Since he was at the Juventus academy, he never changed clubs and only strengthened Juventus until his old age. But in one season, he finally left the club that had made his name and joined LA Galaxy for one final season. Until in the end he decided to retire at an earlier time. Well, good luck on his next trip and I think he will take another important part later at Juventus.

What moment do you remember about Giorgio Chiellini? For me, that time when Luis Suarez bit his shoulder and Giorgio Chiellini looked very angry because of the ridiculous behavior that Luis Suarez did at that time.

Chelsea really needs a striker who has good potential like Victor Oshimen, but it doesn't seem easy for Chelsea to recruit this player, even though Victor Oshimen liked the Chelsea club when he was little, that doesn't mean that Victor Oshimen currently wants to join Chelsea, and what is certain is that Victor Oshimen more concerned with their football career, Indeed, the Premier League is a big league, but Chelsea cannot compete with other clubs who have a better mentality, while Chelsea no longer has a good mentality in the EPL.

Apart from needing a striker, Chelsea also needs a defender. In my opinion, Chelsea back line is quite weak and their defensive system is also bad. I think Chelsea needs to change players who have better potential and Pochettino have to think about that.


Napoli will definitely make various efforts to retain this important players and perhap by providing a large salary will allow Victor Oshimen to stay at Napoli longer and will make it impossible for any club to buy this player easily unless Napoli intend to sell him.

[Phoenix Anka]

Chelsea have enough money to buy new players including Osimhen but the real problem is the Napoli president who already refused to sell the player last summer transfer window in a price under €200k if I am not mistaken..
Osimhen actual value is €120k and I believe it is exaggerated. His real value shouldn't pass €75k this season since he isn't playing as he used to be nor Napoli performing good as they used to do. Since there is some tension between him and Napoli's staff previously then it might be an opportunity for Napoli to generate enough money to buy 3 or even 4 players to consolidate the team and improve their ranking in the Serie A but also in European competitions..

Victor Osimhen seems to want to take every chance to leave Napoli. I think it is clear that he is unhappy playing there. Last season he was one of the best strikers together with Haaland. This season he is not so good compared to last season but we know he has a big potential. I think he could be a good signing for Chelsea or Manchester United. Both teams need a player like Osimhen. Osimhen also needs a new challenge.

I think Osimhen could even play for Barca instead of Lewandowski, who is out of form. Of course, he has said before that his dream is the Premier League. Therefore, Chelsea or Manchester United can be considered as teams where he can be more successful. I think he will leave Napoli at the end of the year.
