⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

He was only winning scudetto and it's nothing more than a trophy and it was not a massive achievements by napoli. I would prefer him to go to the club that can make him to win a few trophies at the same time instead of staying much longer in the club that will make him stuck in the same place. The rumor about real mardrid being linked to the striker has been going through the new round. We can only wait and see what movement is going to be taken by real madrid soon.
I hope real madrid will make everything clear once he will be entering into the winter transfer season. I expect real madrid to made official announcement regarding this rumor soon.

The habit owned by real madrid if the club will not be saying something after it will be fully finalized. As we patiently wait for our arrival in the near future, it has been confirmed that he will be making the move to Real Madrid during the upcoming summer transfer season next year.
This is going to be a very important event for real madrid. Forget chelsea, osimhen is not even interesting to join in it. He has expressed a preference for extending his contract in Napoli, rather than joining a club like Chelsea, which he deems inferior.
Osimhen needs to determine the best choice for his career as soon as possible.

Winning the Scudetto might not be important to you, but I believe it was something great for both Napoli and their star player Osimhen, well he was given an award recently as the African best player for males, and i believe his performance for Napoli last season and winning the Scudetto is part of the things that qualifies him to win the title as African best.  Well Osimhen is a very decorated player and alot of top European clubs are expected to come for his demand, do not forget he made the Ballon D'or list and he's also African best, therefore he'll need to be in a club that matches his standards.

 Among all the clubs that are rumored to be after Osimhen Real Madrid is one of the best option for his next destination, they're a  very big club with a good history and they would really help in bringing the best out of him as well as giving him an opportunity in winning a major trophy, well i saw in a news sometime ago that he's planned in extending his contract with Napoli, well let's wait till summer and see if he'll decide to remain at Napoli or move to a better club.

The latest on the Sancho-Raphinha swap deal between Manchester United and Barcelona brings some complications. It seems Manchester United won't be able to swap Jadon Sancho directly for Raphinha with Barcelona. Barcelona is adamant about selling Raphinha but isn't interested in including Sancho in the deal. According to Sky Sports, Barcelona has set a price tag of $100 million (~£79 million) for Raphinha.

This suggests that, for the negotiations to proceed, Manchester United might have to offer a cash sum in addition to including Sancho in the deal. This adds a layer of complexity to the potential agreement, making it less straightforward for both clubs in the January 2024 transfer window.

[bering]

Osimhen must move to a team that can offer him the chance to win trophies. I doubt if he wants to move to Chelsea although Chelsea can pay him more expensive than other teams. Chelsea is just a mediocre team in EPL, Osimhen won't expect any trophy with Chelsea.

First of all, Osimhen's contract with Napoli runs until 2025. It won't be easy to transfer him before 2025 because he is one of the best along with Mbappe and Haaland and the Napoli president rejected all offers for him in the summer transfer window. However, according to media reports, if Real Madrid can't sign Haaland or Mbappe, they will try to sign Osimhen as a plan C. I think this is a possible scenario because Real Madrid need to sign a striker of this class. So, I think there will be many alternatives for Osimhen in the transfer window. Everybody wants to sign a striker like him.

Real Madrid has money and they are willing to pay with expensive price to the player they want including Osimhen and indeed gets Osimhen is Real Madrid backup plan because if Real Madrid failed to gets Mbappe or Halland this winter then they decide to switch their target to Osimhen and indeed according to the news Osimhen was ready to signed new contract and it says if Osimhen and Napoli reach an agreement then Osimhen will be at Napoli until 2028 and he has 130 millions release clause into his new contract

This news indeed still uncertain because previously Osimhen was linked to some of Premier league teams just like Chelsea or Manchester United and Osimhen too has been says if he want to leave Napoli then he will give his priority to the premier league teams this because Osimhen was really interested want to play at that league but Real Madrid is a big team and they are as the most champion for Laliga and champion league so it's hard for Osimhen to refused this team if this rumor is true

I think this is a possible scenario because Real Madrid need to sign a striker of this class. So, I think there will be many alternatives for Osimhen in the transfer window. Everybody wants to sign a striker like him.

Unless a club wants to redeem the release clause and perhaps the fee will be quite high even though Osimhen's contract expires until 2025. Real Madrid's focus may be much greater on Mbappe, but it is possible that they will try to influence Haaland to move to Los Blancos. Manchester City probably won't let Haaland leave because he is an important asset for the club now, so it is likely that Mbappe will be much more likely to be brought in by Real Madrid than Haaland in the upcoming transfer market.

Real Madrid is in a quite difficult situation, they need strikers like Kylian Mbappe, Erling Haaland and Victor Oshimen, but each club, such as Manchester City, Napoli and PSG, does not want to let go of the striker who plays an important role for each of these clubs, especially this club which is struggling hard in the Champions League if they let go of one of the strikers who plays an important role for the club then it will slowly reduce their performance, but yes among these clubs only Kylian Mbappe is the closest because Mbappe is almost at the end of his contract and is reluctant to extend his contract with PSG but Basically PSG really wants to keep the striker.

I don't know what will happen in the future, but what is clear is that I really hope that Real Madrid can recruit one of these strikers to replace Vinicius Jr. who is currently injured. Moreover, if Vinicius Jr. recovers, he can't have full expectations because this season, Vinicius Jr has suffered 2 injuries and with this, of course will affect the player's performance, so Anclotti has to think about other options to bring in a striker who can be relied on this season to support the club performance.

Victor Osimhen have achieved massively in Napoli and this have boosted his chances of fulfilling his dream which is playing for an English club in EPL in the coming summer. Perhapes we shouldn't rush as we're yet to know the end results. I'm here to correct some ideas put down here. First of all, Chelsea is not a mediocre team in EPL, forget the current stats of the club, it's because of poor management and inappropriate signings of overhyped players to the club. Victor Osimhen can be privileged to play for the Blues someday at Stamford Bridge, we will be patiently waiting for him to  accept the offer and sign his signature for Chelsea.

Mate, Nkunku has barely played for you yet don't you want to see how he turns out first before splashing out on another striker?

And he is almost certainly NOT leaving in January. Napoli need him for their round of 16 clash with Barcelona. Maybe in the summer, it could happen, but who will be able to buy him?

In the transfer market last summer, there was a lot of speculation and news about big clubs wanting Osimhen. But in the transfer market yesterday, the Napoli club set a very high transfer price for Osimhen. I forgot how much it was, but after the club set the transfer price for Osimhen, since then all the clubs that reportedly wanted Osimhen started to back off and didn't dare make an offer. And it's possible that Aurelio De Laurentiis as owner of Napoli will make the same strategy so that Osimhen is not approached by other clubs who want to recruit him.

But I personally also hope that Osimhen moves from Napoli. Because I don't like clubs that don't really respect their players. I saw the news that there was a stir about Osimhen's conflict with the Napoli club. And I think at that moment Osimhen's pride must have been hurt. But I also can't blame the entire Napoli club in this case. Because I think it is the work of an irresponsible staff member. Because before this incident I had heard that Osimhen would not be in a hurry to leave Napoli. He probably dreams of playing in the EPL. But it looks like that's not in the near future. At least that's what I gathered from Osimhen's conversation at that time. But I don't know what Osimhen's attitude is now after several conflicts that occurred there. Is it still in its original position or has it changed?

But it would be great if Osimhen could play in the EPL. Chelsea have reportedly been interested in bringing in Osimhen since last season. But I haven't seen any serious approach from them.

 Among all the clubs that are rumored to be after Osimhen Real Madrid is one of the best option for his next destination, they're a  very big club with a good history and they would really help in bringing the best out of him as well as giving him an opportunity in winning a major trophy, well i saw in a news sometime ago that he's planned in extending his contract with Napoli, well let's wait till summer and see if he'll decide to remain at Napoli or move to a better club.

Besides Real Madrid, there are still other big clubs in Europe that are suitable to continue their careers if he plans to move from Napoli. Barcelona big clubs too. Liverpool are also big clubs with great history.
The final decision is in Osimhen where he will land if the intention to leave cannot be held anymore.
Only for me, Osimhen better staying in Napoli until the end of the season to re -honor his abilities that have just recovered from injury. Besides, Napoli is also a big club that can provide the best place for his career development.

Real Madrid is looking for a middle striker after Benzema leaves SPL and Joselu is considered unsuitable as a middle attacker.
For me, Osimhen should not force to leave before the situation and the right condition.

Of course, Barcelona does not consider Jadon Sancho to be a valuable player so they want to accept him, and getting cash will be the main choice for Barcelona because they can use the money to buy other players who they are already targeting to strengthen their squad, especially strikers because Barcelona needs a new striker to start replacing Robert Lewandowski there.
Almost 80 million euros for Raphinha is too high in my opinion and the value is not that high, but because Manchester United are always ready to buy the player they want for any high value it is very possible that a deal will be reached even if they have to exclude Sancho in the deal, because we see how United bought players at high prices such as Rasmus Højlund, Mason Mount and Onana whose contributions so far are still below their price when United bought them.

What a funny deal here, both of them are in financial difficulty, so each of them shouldn't demand money if they want to swap their players. If Barcelona demand additional fees, I'm sure the swap deal won't happen.

But if Manchester United add Maguire, maybe Barcelona will interested since they also need new defender.

Barcelona President Joan Laporta said that if Barcelona does not win the title there will always be consequences. Here I caught his words referring to Xavi's fate as Barcelona coach and even though a few days ago there were rumors about his dismissal, I think Joan Laporta still quite believes him. Joan Laporta also added that currently Barcelona is still active in all competitions and this will be a strict consideration before deciding on the next thing.

He also still hopes that Barcelona can still win all the titles and we know that this seems very small considering the competition between teams is getting tighter and in La Liga alone they are quite far behind. So in this interview, Joan Laporta emphasized that they will not make a decision on a new coach to replace Xavi as long as Barcelona is still competing in all competitions and if Barcelona is eliminated then they will move quickly to find a replacement.

Osimhen is likely extending his contract with napoli. Read this https://www.goal.com/en/lists/victor-osimhen-chelsea-napoli-transfer-new-contract/bltb068810c523b028e

IMO, osimhen is likele trying to agree with the new contract and napoli will set a new release clause for him in the new contract. I have seen that how osimhen was complaining about the inconsistentcy of his club to determine how much release clause is worthy for him.

I remember napoli's president is always changing his decision regarding osimhen's price to buy him out from the club. Osimhen has requested the club to make everything clea and that's what he will get in the new contract.

Napoli needs to put the actual release clause for him. This is also the main requirement to make osimhen try to be in napoli much lonver. he really loves napoli, and he was not willing to go to the other club.

I saw it as a setback for him consider napoli will not make him to be a better striker. He was good but not comparable to the haaland.

Osimhen is a quality striker, there is no doubt about that. I don't think he is the primary option for Real Madrid. Haaland would be a great option for Real, but my preference would be Mbappe. He has a structure that can play both as a forward and as a wing. Haaland plays as a complete finishing striker. While Mbappe makes it easier to intervene in the game, you cannot remove Haaland from his position.

Chelsea are not willing to loan out Noni Madueke in the January transfer window but are prepared to listen to offers over £40m for Conor Gallagher in January.

This is very sadden to know that Chelsea are willing to sell out one of the best player this season in person of Gallagher seeing how they have been struggling with inconsistency in their performance this season we expect they retain their better players like Gallagher who have been of a positive influence to the team's few wins this season's in all games he had fixtures.  while they use the January transfer window to bring in new players that can fill in the loopholes and lapse the team is experiencing. Why sell out your best player instead of those not really doing fine in the team?

I think Chelsea would be making a great mistake should they let Gallagher leave cause as it stands many EPL clubs have shown interest in him come January as Chelsea chose to send him off.

Gallagher isn't the best player that Chelsea have in this season, there's no reason to keep Gallagher since they already have Palmer and Nkunku, so having Gallagher is just make Chelsea to spend additional money.

This should be a though decision for Chelsea, but they must to sell their players because they currently have a lot players at the moment.

Maybe what Chelsea need now is a midfielder that can control the game much better that the ones they have now,they need a striker also,who knows how to score goals,and can Atleast give them like 18-25 goals every season.Jackson is trying,but I don't think that is the Calibre of player they need,the type of player like Osimhen or Ivan Toney who knows how to struggle to get their own goals,and not someone who will  wait for ball to come to them before scoring.And for the aspect of loaning out Madueke,one of their best players in that team,I don't really see that happening because the coach knows that he is a quality player,and if he should sell him,he would find it difficult to replace him,so I don't see that deal materialising.

While Mbappe makes it easier to intervene in the game, you cannot remove Haaland from his position.

If Osimhem is the striker that Real Madrid is targeting then in the previous transfer market Real Madrid will definitely make an offer to Napoli and I'm sure it will be difficult for Napoli to refuse that offer. But in fact, Real Madrid did not make Osimhen their main target and still favored Mbappe as one of their desired targets. Mbappe has much better advantages compared to Haaland because this typical player is much stronger and masters playing positions on the wing or as a central striker.

Haaland is only able to complete passes to score goals, but speaking of needs I believe Haaland and Mbappe are two figures that Real Madrid really needs. If both of them can be brought in in the next transfer market then I think the Real Madrid squad will be much better and will produce striker who are quite feared by any opponent.

Financially, Madrid is not constrained by recruiting any player they want, but what needs to be taken into account is the FFP rules. It makes sense that Perez wants to build the next volume of Los Galacticos by recruiting several star players at once, of course something has to be sacrificed to make this project a reality. Madrid only needs a number 9 figure, I think anyone can take that role, it doesn't have to be Mbappe, Halaand or Osimhen. Joselu can also be a sharp striker because he is supported by an even squad depth, but here Madrid is also considering several other rules such as the number of local, EU and non-EU players.

So far, even though Madrid doesn't have a pure striker, we can see that they are able to be consistent even though they sometimes have difficulty winning. Ancelotti is able to apply any strategy and experiment with various schemes in every match, this cannot be separated from the players he has who can occupy several positions when needed. That's what I think makes it easier for them to collect point by point, especially since Madrid mentality is very well maintained.

Pochettino will be doing another shit to the chelsea again. It seems like that chelsea was hiring the wrong coach. There's no progress being made by him. Chelsea is having some midfielders but the club was always using gallagher as starting line up.
This is the main problem of chelsea. I thought that the main problem was not in the player but it's in the coach. So far, gallagher has biggest contribution to the teams during several match. Chelsea is just doing another shitty thing again.
Look at so many failed transfers by chelsea like mudryk or even caicedo. Even gallagher has been performing even better than those stupid 100 millions players.

I don't know what plan that has been preparing by pochettino but it sounds another worst to come for chelsea. Gallagher is still contributing a lot and he was very often helping the club to intercept the ball.
The main problem was in the pochettino and it's not on gallagher. Pochettino is never aware if his stupid 100 million guy like enzo can't even do long shoot properly.
Another shitshow is going to happen with chelsea again.

Connor Gallagher was a great asset in the Crystal Palace squad last season when he was there. He used to make key plays, assists, and goals. What is surprising to me is that Connor Gallagher started almost all the matches this season for Chelsea. He is a key player in the squad. But surprisingly they are not willing to loan out Noni Madueke.

Chelsea are currently struggling in the Premier League. They need to make better decisions in the transfer market which I think they are not doing at the moment. Gallagher along with Moises Caicedo performed good in last Saturday's game as well. This news is shocking.

For the next season, Real Madrid will arrive Brazilian youth players Endrick have quit well performance with Fluminense and help his team won Brazilian Serie A for this season. I don't think with Real Madrid want to priority for signing Victor Osimhen current will have highest valuable above 150 million euro. Real Madrid main target is sign Kylian Mbappe with potential become free agent next season not make Madrid must spending much money for fees transfer than sign Victor Osimhen and need spent much money for getting deal agreement with Napoli.

I don't think Madrid face difficult with their striker in this season although Joselu not consistent scoring goals on every match, Rodrygo become good option to be false nine and his performance very quit well for scoring goals. If can't sign Mbappe or Osimhen next season I think Madrid will try with nine false scheme with Rodrygo as number 9 striker.
