⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[GbitG]

I think Victor Osimhen transfer fees with 400 million euro is over values and not any crazy teams want spent much money for signing one player only with that amount they can get more than four players with top qualities level. Harry Kane transfer fees 100 million euro and he has most experienced than Victor Osimhen and Erling Haaland with consistency performance just have values under 100 million euro.

Yeah, obviously, bro, this is true. Buying a player for $400 million is not a proper thing. Only one player should not have so much value because 3 to 4 players can be transferred for such a value, but one player and that too is only a striker, so it is not wise to spend so much money on him. Three players can be easily bought for the same value as one. The club cannot find only one player solution, despite the fact that if two strikers and one midfielder are transferred for $400 million, it can give you the best interest instead of one player. It can mean big players like Killyan Mbappe, Earling Haaland, and Jude Bellagham can be signed. So spending $400 million on Victor Osiman is not appropriate for a club.

[Huppercase]

He had a very high rating and was in a pretty decent form before he joined Manchester United that same season. It's either PSG of Saudi Arabian League, they would speed up the chase to get him signed. Who doesn't want such a great player in their squad? Really? He should not cost what? Ronaldo moved to Juventus at what age exactly? Harry Kane English International Captain has just joined Bayern Munich at what age please.?

Amongst the four names I saw, Casemiro was amongst them most likely to leave Manchester United when the transfer window begins.
They would also be without a top man like Kylian Mbappe, I agree with you they have plans to sign up younger players for the squad upgrades.

Manchester United will suffer a big loss if Casemiro leave the club, he has done an incredible work for that club because in all his career, he got his first red card in Manchester United trying to protect the club against all odd. In most of the games he was absent, they suffered losses both at home and away and the rest of the defenders are not doing well, they always need him but he got a another red card at the time the club need him the most. I'm sure that he will be rush by Saudi squads anytime he becomes a free agant when the market open and I'm sure Manchester United are going to earned well from this deal.

PSG can't deal with their own failure and now they are suffering from wron decisions they made, it is now they needed a young players to revive the path of the club. Thanks goodness Mbape didn't win the World Cup the second time otherwise they will have presented the club presidence to Mbape out love to make him stay in the club. Indeed a club only value your loyalty when they have something unique that you have, the soonest they don't see that again, they switch immediately.

A report claimed that Real Madrid dropped the bid of signing Mbappé because of his age. And a close look at Real's new signings shows that they are interested in young player. PSG should raise or sign young players and allow advanced players to move to Saudi Arabia  .

But according to other reports, Real Madrid will make their offer as soon as the year ends. Actually, I still doubt this report, but if it really happens, it might be the last offer for Kylian Mbappe. Real Madrid are tired of waiting for uncertainty from Kylian Mbappe and they should look for other options for strikers. On the other hand, Real Madrid actually has everything to offer, but why should they bet on Kylian Mbappe and not try other players out there because it is impossible for them to continue playing without the number 9 player next season.

Firstly:
We have to understand that player like Mbappe is a big name and whenever media lacks something substantial to write about they will drag big names into the picture and make headlines with them. Other big names are

• Ronaldo
• Messi
• Bellingham
• Haaland
• Vinicius  

And many others. Currently the media has nothing to write about Ronaldo and Messi concerning transfer because they are out of Europe. Other supper stars are committed to their clubs, so it is only Kylian that they can write about.
  Secondly
If Real Madrid will be patient of not giving any offer to Mbappe till now, I do not think that waiting till he becomes a free agent will be a problem.

[tusandii]

This is the final offer, and Real Madrid won't wait indefinitely for Kylian Mbappe's decision; they're actively exploring other options for strikers. The latest information suggests that Real Madrid has set a deadline of January 15th for Mbappe to respond. The club believes this is a reasonable timeframe, and if there's no positive development by then, they are prepared to move on. Real Madrid is eager to secure a top-notch number 9 player for the next season, and Mbappe might find it challenging to reject Madrid's proposal. In case of disappointment, the club is ready to explore exciting prospects like Haaland or Osimhen. I'm excited to see how this unfolds!

Even though Real Madrid is still giving the opportunity and is willing to send the contract letter to Mbappe, this means that Madrid is still opening the door for mbappe even though he was disappointed and this time is really the last chance for Mbappe If he refuses another offer from madrid in the future, this club will never accept it again Mbappe and actually I don't really hope that Mbappe can join Real Madrid, it's just that if the player accepts the offer it would be good news but if not, I think I would prefer to see Real Madrid striker Haaland or Osimhen as you said.
It just that the advantage of being able to get Mbappe is that this player is in good physical condition, while Osimhen has just recovered from injury, while Haaland has just suffered an injury, so maybe Real madrid will do the first thing to bid for Mbappe and if that fails, maybe Haaland or Osimhen could be the next alternative.
So this means that there will be 3 striker candidates that Real Madrid will bring in and whoever comes from these candidates will make Madrid future brighter.

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.

Barcelona has been the crowd puller for a long time besides Real Madrid and that is the main reason why they got away with a lot of bad stuff they have done in the past. But that time might one day be over. Apart from those issues though I think that Barcelona is not this club that every player dreams of when they are young thinking about clubs they want to play for when they grow older. The holy Barcelona from years ago is not the same anymore. Real Madrid is once again the number one club in La Liga. This and their financial situation will make it very hard for them to sign one of these super talents like Haaland or young Mbappe. Money and prestige both declined for Barcelona.

With a fee of nearly 70 million pounds, the former Real Madrid star played well in his first season with the MU. However, in the 2023/24 season, Casemiro suddenly declined and is recovering until the end of the year due to a hamstring problem. PSG is considering strengthening its midfield in the winter transfer window, with midfielder Casemiro being one of the targets. They don't necessarily choose young players, experienced players are also worth picking. If they liquidate him for a bargain price under 30 million.
Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia is also ready to jump into the race for a signature, in the context of the 31-year-old midfielder's future at Old Trafford being quite unclear. It seems that Saudi Arabia is always a place to store outdated players.

But it is quite seldom that it is a good decision to buy a player who starts getting injuries that take a long time to recover from and then try to integrate that player for long term success. Maybe Casemiro can become a bench player who helps out when some other player gets injured, but I can imagine that he wants more than that and would not be ok with sitting on the bench most of the time. But then if the money is enough, I guess he would be fine with any role in the team. But if that is the case he could also just go to Saudi Arabia and get a lot more than he would get at PSG.

But according to other reports, Real Madrid will make their offer as soon as the year ends. Actually, I still doubt this report, but if it really happens, it might be the last offer for Kylian Mbappe.

On the other hand, Real Madrid actually has everything to offer, but why should they bet on Kylian Mbappe and not try other players out there because it is impossible for them to continue playing without the number 9 player next season.

I don't care with offer or something like that when it comes to Mbappe and Real Madrid, I'd say a bullshit since such rumors have been talked from long time ago. Mbappe will stay in PSG regardless what the offer by Real Madrid, even the offer is make Mbappe become Real Madrid's owner, it's still not enough for him.

Mbappe will join Real Madrid if he agree to not extend his contract in PSG.

I remember that he had previously conveyed to the club via message that he preferred not to extend it. I don't know if it's true, but if he wants to cancel his contract extension option, Real Madrid seems like the only option for him. News sites have been writing for years that he wants to play in Real. I'm sure there will be a meeting in which he will not remain indifferent to such an offer and try to reach an agreement.

[beerlover]

How can you say like that? Even the news was also showing the opposite thing if osimhen was not willing to leave from the club. So many news has been reporting that if osimhen is not willing to leave from there. He was not intentionally joining in the new club.
This is why the media was also doubting the chance of chelsea to get him from napoli. It seems like that he is going to disappear soon. Im doubting him to join in another club and it will not happen. Osimhen is too good to be true to leave from napoli.
His price is also become the main factor why he will not be leaving from the club. Napoli's president was really obsessed toward him. No doubt that if the team was trying so hard to make it happen for him to stay even longer.
I hope osimhen will not be leaving from napoli. Seeing him stuck in the same place is far better rather than getting more experience to play in the different league right now. Overrated player.
This is what i call him right now.

I am not sure about that at all, he is looking like the type of player who would ask for a lot of respect and money from the club if he stays at Napoli, meaning that he would want to be the captain and the most paid player and just rule the club, sort of like Mbappe of PSG type of deal, and he would require a lot of things from the club that would hurt the club on the long run. Whereas I think it's clear that we are talking about a situation that would not be all that easy to handle, we are not going to end up with Napoli accepting to all these terms and will look to sell him.

And in that situation Osimhen will not end up doing anything bigger, he will go to a bigger club and because he is at a bigger club he would not require this much. When you are the best player in Napoli, you have the leverage to ask for these things, but assuming if he goes to Chelsea, he would not be the best player there and he would not be able to ask for these things and just get paid.

Since the retirement of Sir Alex Ferguson, Manchester United has suffered enough from one coach to another and players who are not worthy of wearing Manchester United badge.
I was so attached to Cristiano Ronaldo and I never envisaged him leaving the club that quick. To ne very honest, I felt like je would work better with Erik Ten Hag at Manchester United and they'll revive the club but they both couldn't make things work out for themselves just like Jadon Sancho and Erik Ten Hag. If Casemiro wants to leave, that's fine by him. With his destination? That I can't predict, Saudi for the money and PSG for more European trophies.

Manchester United has just come to agreement with Frankfurt over a loan transfer deal for Donny Van Dee Beek. I'm wishing him Godspeed in the next six months. He didn't get enough chance today play under Ten Hag. He has to go to a club so he can play consecutively.

[Hvdv]

Casemiro would likely leave Manchester United, but i don't think it can be to PSG. I found it weird when United paid £70m for a player of his age, there is no doubting his quality, but when a player is already above 30, he should not cost as much as that, except it is a Saudi club that is doing the signing, lol.

Buying a player from 28 and above is risky. Some of them will experience a drop in performance, others will become injury-prone and their injuries will take more time to heal. Paying Real Madrid such an amount for an aging midfielder might be an error but they thought he would deliver, but sadly he underperformed. But there is still interest for the Brazilian which shows that he is still relevant to some clubs. But there are speculations that the Brazilian has an interest in moving to Bayern Munich. With the future of Thomas Tuchel in doubt and rumors that Xavi Alonso might be moving to Allianz Arena, Casemiro might want to join him.

PSG are looking for younger players, especially from France, that is the direction the club has decided to take, they no longer want to sign only big stars, but they want to nurture young talents, if Casemiro leaves United, Saudi Arabia would be a more likely destination that the French champions.

A report claimed that Real Madrid dropped the bid of signing Mbappé because of his age. And a close look at Real's new signings shows that they are interested in young player. PSG should raise or sign young players and allow advanced players to move to Saudi Arabia  .

Casemiro is getting and that's what we know about him but this player is still talented and he had a good performance in Manchester United when he was playing for this team as the first squad. Also, I remember in any game they didn't use Casemiro Mancshter Uniyed has problems and that's a good reason to say Casemiro is an effective player for his team.
There are definitely many teams that want to hire Casemiro like Saudis and PSG but I think Manchester United should keep Casemiro for a longer time even if he is getting old.

Since he is 31 years old, I think he can perform at a high level for 3 more years. Casemiro is a player whose style I like and he is one of the few players in the Manchester United squad who does his job well. He has a structure that gathers the midfield. The Saudis spend incredible amounts of money to recruit famous players, but if you ask whether Manchester United will sell him, I think not. Casemiro will be an important dynamo as we go through the recovery process.

Casemiro with his current level of play and fitness is indeed plausible that he is able to continue his contribution at a high level for three more years. He is certainly the most important player for Manchester United, even though we dont see his best performance like he used to perform at Madrid, his impact to the team is so significant. His ability to gather and control the midfield not only showcases his individual skills but also show his importance in the overall team dynamics.

Manchester United being reluctance to sell Casemiro is reasonable with the sentiment that players of his caliber. He is invaluable asset who consistently delivers and fulfills his role effectively. Manchester United as a club, especially during a recovery or rebuilding phase, would likely prioritize retaining such key players who provide stability and leadership. His experience, work ethic, and on-field contributions can serve as a stabilizing force during transitional phases.

Despite the fact that Casemiro is getting older and not very consistent with his good work rate like he used to be I think he's still got it in him, he proved it last season when he was bought from Realmadrid into united, the problem with Casemiro is fatigue, he was over used last season and it's really  affecting his performance this season, in both club and country side. Well I won't blame Manchester United if they want to sell him in the January window cause they'll need reinforcement and can't wait for Casemiro's recovery.

 Well if they choose to retain him based on the role he plays in the team, then it would be very understanding cause an inform Casemiro has a lot of experience and he's highly effective, which is something united could really rely on, in the long run. Well only time would tell if united would either choose to  sell or retain Casemiro based on his experience and work ethics.

Even if it is like that, I still think in this case apart from Madrid Barcelona is one of the clubs that has always been coveted especially with the golden ink a few seasons ago where they reached the golden era.
At the moment Barcelona's decline is very pronounced but that doesn't really reduce their level of popularity in my opinion.

Now speaking of Barcelona it looks like they will still try to find some free players but on the other hand there are some rumors that say that there are linking Osimhen with Barcelona even though I don't think this is true because this will not be possible.

[red4slash]

Now speaking of Barcelona it looks like they will still try to find some free players but on the other hand there are some rumors that say that there are linking Osimhen with Barcelona even though I don't think this is true because this will not be possible.

Yep, this is unlikely to happen because it wouldn't make sense if something like this were real. I mean of course with their current financial situation and the option of bringing in free agents and loan players is one option that Barcelona can't afford to lose at the moment so bringing in Osimhen with a clause of over 100 million is not going to be possible.
But if you think of a way like what happened to Raphinha from Leeds, it might still be possible, it's just that it will add to their problems because after all, what needs to be considered besides the clause is salary and I feel Barcelona will not be able to afford the salary of Osimhen.

Look how Manchester United is declining. Popularity may still be there and when you ask people about Barcelona, they might still know most of the players, but I am sure that popularity has also decreased. I am not talking about the hardcore fans because they will always be backing their favorite club, no matter what happens. But I think that popularity can go down as well when a club becomes irrelevant over time. It depends on what Barcelona will achieve in the Champions League. Manchester United is not the same name as it was 15 years ago. A Champions League game against Manchester United was the biggest game ever. Now it is far from that. And with that decline they get bigger problems to recruit the best talent.

[Woodie]

Now speaking of Barcelona it looks like they will still try to find some free players but on the other hand there are some rumors that say that there are linking Osimhen with Barcelona even though I don't think this is true because this will not be possible.

Has much as Napoli f@%#& up with that tiktok video mocking their talisman,  I don't think his going any where as at now!

If any thing, rumor has it that Osimhens new contract is coming up which could make him the highest paid player should he play his cards right , and I see this as damage control for what transpired and if money doesn't talk then this lad will be a tough nut crack and will leave...

Btw,  why is it that Barcelona is usually in the news of being linked with all these big names when they know too well not to attract attention after losing  one of the biggest names in football 🤔

[GbitG]

PSG can't deal with their own failure and now they are suffering from wron decisions they made, it is now they needed a young players to revive the path of the club. Thanks goodness Mbape didn't win the World Cup the second time otherwise they will have presented the club presidence to Mbape out love to make him stay in the club. Indeed a club only value your loyalty when they have something unique that you have, the soonest they don't see that again, they switch immediately.

This is also the right time to sign a young player, which would be good for PSG, but I think PSG needs some solidify players as well as a good coach because before Kylian Mbappe, PSG had some big players like Neymar and Messi, but they couldn't find a single trophy in the UEFA Champions league. So currently, how can Kylian Mbappe alone do the job? And in this, I am not disparaging Messi and Neymar, but I want to tell you that the biggest problem at PSG that has not been solved till now is the coach. Everyone should be used to playing in their own place.

Lol, what you said made me laugh. Thank God Kylian Mbappe didn't win the World Cup, because if he had won, then PSG would have made Kylian Mbappe president. This is the weakness of PSG: they lost big players like Messi and Neymar due to prioritizing their players, and even Mbappe himself cannot fill the gap that Messi and Neymar used to make. I say that PSG should sell Mbappe and earn money from him, sign new talent, and have a good coach for the club who can easily handle all these problems, meaning the club will win the UCL.

[Dzigie]

Now speaking of Barcelona it looks like they will still try to find some free players but on the other hand there are some rumors that say that there are linking Osimhen with Barcelona even though I don't think this is true because this will not be possible.

Barcelona have to look for free players to stabilize their finances. In fact, Mbappe would be a good alternative for them, but we know that Mbappe wants to go to Real Madrid.

Barcelona are famous for their youth facilities. Pique, Alba as well as Messi came out of there. If they don't have the budget to spend on transfers, they could take one more look at La Massia, maybe they will find something there that they have forgotten.

[Slow death]

I keep wondering which players Chelsea and Manchester United will sign when the market opens, these two teams have been the center of attention in the market when it opens, this is because these two teams make meaningless signings, so I keep asking myself what they will do when the market opens. I saw in an interview that the Real Madrid coach gave, he clearly said that Real Madrid will not sign anyone in this transfer window, and it makes sense. This is because real madrid has a good squad, but has problems in attack and they will choose to wait for mbapp to be free before signing him, this would mean that real madrid would have to wait for this season to end before signing mbappe. seems like a good choice

Chelsea's coach said in an interview that Chelsea needed to sign more players, I'm wondering who Chelsea's target will be and if there will be many players wanting to play for Chelsea at the current level Chelsea are currently at. So far I have not seen any rumors that have any chance of being true about any player that Chelsea is interested in signing, probably in the next few weeks we will start listening to the rumors, this month because it is a month of parties and because the teams want to avoid that leaks information about new signings because it would increase the price and competition, the teams are silent

[Sakanwa]

Arsenal are seriously looking at the possibility of taking Ivan Toney on loan,at first it looked like this was just a rumour,but as time passes,the information is beginning to gather some facts.According to sources,it is said that Arsenal wants an upgrade on Nketiah,someone who can really give headache to defenders.Arsenal have relied on Saka and Martinelli for goals,and the defenders in the premier league have deviced a means of tackling them by doubling their defenders when playing against these two wingers.So if they should have a middle man giving them troubles too, attentions will be shifted from Saka and Martinelli a little,and it will thereby give chance to those wingers to score.
