⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

The move of De Ligt from Bayern Munich to Arsenal would definitely be a good move for Arsenal. Now the question, is the player interested in joining Arsenal, and is Bayern Munich are willing to sell it?

Arsenal is currently doing very well and they may win the Premier League, which makes them a big team and you know players are usually interested in joining the big teams. On the other hand, players always want to join the Premier League and since De Ligt has never played there he probably will be interested in the move, if the contract that he will be offered by Arsenal will be good. On the other hand, Bayern Munich doesn't start De Ligt regularly, so they probably will be willing to sell him.

Yep, brother, I strongly believe that if Bayern Munich signed Raphael Varane, everyone knows that Bayern Munich is ready to send an offer to Manchester United for the signing of Raphael Varane. If you didn't hear anything about the transfer of Raphael Varane to Bayern Munich, as you can see in the tweet, Bayern Munich already sent Matthijs de Ligt to the bench, and according to my opinion, maybe Thomas Tuchel prefers Varane more than Matthijs de Ligt. Therefore, I claim that if the transfer deal or negotiations start, there is no doubt that Arensal will sign Matthijs de Ligt because if a world-class defender is present in a club, the coach wants to sign another defender, so this is evidence that now the club does not more prefer Matthijs de Ligt as a defender and to be part of the club. Bayern. Despite Raphael Varane, the next target is to pick Bayern Munich as a defender. So Matthijs de Ligt has strong chances to join Arensal if Bayern Munich sign Raphael Varane.

Pape is turning 18 next summer and is set to be part of Chelsea's project. But why does Chelsea always focus on young talent instead of buying experienced players? It would be better for Chelsea to invest in a matured striker who suits their style of play. They need players with experience to strengthen the team immediately, rather than focusing on players for the next 4-5 years.

Chelsea right now are buying experienced and young players both. Experienced players for the regular team and young talents to be helpful in future. I think it's a good strategy as most of the clubs focus on the current squad and are unable to get players when their regular players gets old. I have seen lot of clubs who have faced such situation so it is also important for a club to focus on young talents also to groom them for the time being so that they can use them later on when the club needs them.

I must say that I cannot understand why some teams transfer 33-34 year old players. Chelsea's transfer strategy is very good. Once you have the Wonderkids, success will come gradually. They can also sell players and earn extra income. Currently, the scout team has a lot of work to do in this strategy. I think the scout team should report promising young people to Chelsea in the most accurate way.

Arsenal have taken an interest in Bayern Munich defender Matthijs de Ligt:
The English side Arsenal are trying to figure out how to sign Dutch and Bayern Munich center Back Matthijs de Ligt, but the move will be unlikely in the January not in summer transfer window. Arsenal already have good players in defense, such as W.Saliba, Gabriel, etc., but I think they are trying to improve it more. Currently Arsenal are in first place in the league table and still hold first place, as well as dominating the English Premier League competition. But let's see if Arsenal beat West ham tonight so they will again take first place because they played fewer matches than Liverpool.

 
Arsenal management wants to strengthen their bench with more quality players against injury, because if you remember last season, injury to Saliba was one of the main reason why Arsenal could not maintain their position and end up losing the Premier League title to Manchester City that is why the wants to buy all the necessary players they need to be on bench for backup to avoid such problems.

Arsenal is now second in the Premeir league table, if they win West Ham tonight, they will top the league at half season just as they did last season.

At the end of this, I assumed that if Arsenal signed Matthijs de Ligt from Bayern Munich so I think there would be no better defense than Arsenal in English Premier League competition because 24-year-old Matthijs de Ligt is one of the best center-backs, and he has such a good mentality to understand other defenders and stop the attack. But let's see what happens next. Share your opinion with us, guys.

Right now, Arsenal have one of the best defenders in the Premier League, if they signed this player , it will be an added advantage for them even though they Kiwior on the bench as backup. But the question here is “will Bayern Munich let the player go?”
If yea then they will have to collect a player on a swap deal because they were interested in signing Tomiyasu.

In the era where money is now priorities, I'm not sure if players still look at the love of club over money. Sometimes I look back at the prime of Ronaldinho, Drogba, Zidane and Kaka, if they are now the type of players we have now, only God knows the kind of money and offers that will be coming to their table. No wonder we don't see this type of wonderful players again, transfers and agents is now more of political and lobbying and that's why we have a player like Maguire still rated on Manchester United.

Osimhen favorite club is Chelsea, if he wanted to live Napoli before this January, we would have seen the signs because last the beginning of this season was a bit shaky and racism was high but I think even despite that the president wasn't showing interest in the public on how they want him, under the ground they want to see Napoli stay else when they had the opportunity from Saudi Arabian teams, it would be a perfect time for him to leave but they want him and that is among the reason he still stays in the club.

It's only unfair to compare how football was viewed back then to how it's viewed now. Football was a passionate sport and every player in a team had strong passion for the team which in turn fueled the impact made in the team as well. But at this point, the revolution of football has gradually occurred.Now the sports is all about the earnings, it's not wrong though but one can't just help it. Now a player opts for the highest bidding club.

 That's why we see now unnecessary flops in some players' performances. They really don't care, all they're bothered about is the fact that at the end of every week, they get their salaries. Now see the offer out before Osimhen against the January transfer window. Deep down inside him, it'd take passion to reject the offer or else, he'd just stay. It's his decision if to leave or not as whichever way, there's an advantage and a disadvantage too. I don't know who to blame as to how and why football has drifted from what it was originally known for but one just has to cope with it.

Wanting to sell another defender when they haven't replaced Benjamin Pavard already? What's the plan of Bayern Munich honestly? I don't understand.
Though I've seen that they have plans to sign Rapheal Varane. This is a player committed towards staying with Manchester United I don't know what Thomas Tuchel wants. Varane already aged and I don't think he'll give them the hundred percent they'll be wanting from him.

For Arsenal, they shouldn't make mistake with chase of much defenders, they need a central forward amd that's Ivan Toney. Why invest to get another defender when you'll be seeing Timber return?

I don't think Bayer Munich will sell Matthijs de Light, he is the main player in Bayern Munich. It is impossible that Bayern Munich will lose one of their great defenders, they need de Light because they will play harder matches in the second half of the season. Although they plan to sign Varane, no guarantee to sign Varane successfully because I heard a rumor that Real Madrid may negotiate with Man United to sign Varane, too. We also don't know whether Varane could play better than de Light in Bayern Munich. Another thing, it is true that Varane is no longer young player. It is better to keep de Light than signing Varane, right?  

If Arsenal has a lot of money, it is not a problem to sign new defenders and attackers. Although Timber will recover and he will return soon, Arsenal still needs a new defender to ensure their squad depth.

If Arsenal can succeed to sign a world class defender like Matthijs de Ligt, then it'll be a great addition to the current squad and would further increase their chances of winning an English Premier League title at the end of the season. Right from his days at Ajax before he was transferred to Juventus and now Bayern Munich, de Ligt is one defender that possesses the leadership qualities of marshaling out the defense line of any team he's playing in abd if he can be convinced to come to.the Emirates stadium, then it'll surely be a great signing for them.

That being said, I think it'll not be easy for such deal to go through as Bayern Munich are currently in need of defenders. Benjamin Pavard is currently injured and that's why the club wouldn't want to release de Ligt

[Velvet78]

Hojbjerg is said to be a target for Juventus. They would really make use of strengthening their midfield these days. Because Pogba is still absent due to the same reason. I don't have any expectation left from him anymore. Juventus must also be wishing to get rid of him as soon as possible. Filling his place in the team with an active decent player would be great for Juventus.

Hojbjerg is a really good midfielder. If they don't have anyone better on their radar I think they should go for him. Their cost wouldn't be too high for Juventus I assume. His current contract ends in less than two years. Maybe he would also like some new adventure.

Maybe you want Arsenal to get him signed up and turn the lad to another Per Mertersaker ? I mean the German defender who turned flop for em scoring series'of own goals for em?! Lol

I don't see him headed for Arsenal truly. He should remain with Bayern Munich because theya big winning side. He can leave successfully when he sees a side that wants him just like they did.
Arsenal already had Gabriel and Salina one of the neatest defenders I've seen in the Premier League Competition lately. They're doing well and won't be out for no Afcon, so why go for a position that's not important?

Hojbjerg, the guy is still around and I have to say I haven't heard much about him in the last few months, but maybe I just didn't pay attention.

The Pogba case will very likely come to an end very soon as Juventus Turin is checking whether they can cancel the contract unilaterally. If that's not possible, I still think that Juventus Turin wants to get rid of him. He has no practice at the moment, he is injured all the time and he has the doping issues at hand. All of that combined would make any decision to keep him for longer quite a stupid decision.

Pape is turning 18 next summer and is set to be part of Chelsea's project. But why does Chelsea always focus on young talent instead of buying experienced players? It would be better for Chelsea to invest in a matured striker who suits their style of play. They need players with experience to strengthen the team immediately, rather than focusing on players for the next 4-5 years.

First of all, I think a team that is made out of only young players are always going to do better instead of a team made out of only experienced/old players. But the thing is, a team which has a good combination of young and old players are always going to do better when compared to only young or only old players. Chelsea should look to find a good balanced team like that. I do not know what the plan is from them. Because at the moment it does not seem like anything is working. I do hope that they will be able to make things work. But I am still very skeptical, to be honest.

Ideally, a team must have a balance of young players who are their regeneration, as well as players who have experience and are established and can be relied on. this combination, would be ideal. like Manchester City. they have talented young players, as well as more established players.

Well, now we are talking from Chelsea's needs. in my view, Chelsea clearly has to bring in an established striker for their current squad. very clearly, they cannot rely on the existing players and even the pure strikers they have at the moment. that's also why, Chelsea struggle to improve their ranking and tend to be in the middle of the table. actually there are many choices, it's just whether the player they are targeting is willing or not. like Osimhen, he is established enough to be brought to Stamford Bridge. this player from Nigeria is still young, but can be relied on when it comes to scoring goals. it's clear this is what Chelsea needs, and the problem is whether the Napoli star is willing or not. there are also several other names that Arsenal are also targeting, although I haven't really followed their developments in the last week. but what is certain is that if Chelsea or Poche do not make changes, it is certain that Chelsea will have difficulty finishing in the top 4 of the Premier League.

I have seen lot of clubs who have faced such situation so it is also important for a club to focus on young talents also to groom them for the time being so that they can use them later on when the club needs them.

I can remember how Real Madrid groomed young players in the past and now enjoying them now. Most of those young players are now top notch players that every team will love to have in their squad. Chelsea are doing the right thing and this looks like the best idea for them now after having a bad outing last season despite buying all the best players they needed and no productive result. The scout team and the management are doing a great job by bringing the idea of adding young talents to the club now from an early age in order to groom them for the future of the club. Chelsea was once a big team and an excellent one in the past, maybe with this strategy, they can get back to their old days of glory again.

Currently, Chelsea has not officially confirmed this deal, but it is consistent with the transfer strategy at Stamford Bridge, And this is also what many other rich clubs are doing. But here, I see them spending a lot of money on young players, and I see a need for more stability in the play of these young players. If only they could bring in a classy striker. He will help the team be more stable. For example, they brought in Mbappe. Perhaps this year's season will be completely different for them. Recruiting young players, like Chelsea, is betting on them. I find it risky.

[liuka]

I must say that I cannot understand why some teams transfer 33-34 year old players. Chelsea's transfer strategy is very good. Once you have the Wonderkids, success will come gradually. They can also sell players and earn extra income. Currently, the scout team has a lot of work to do in this strategy. I think the scout team should report promising young people to Chelsea in the most accurate way.

To stabilize their strength they need to recruit 1 or 2 players aged 33-34 years and apart from that they can transition a change with their young squad. Last summer chelsea made major improvements in their team but in fact they are still hampered by being able to recover more quickly this season. Yes they may need a lot of time to get back to strength so they have to focus on buying younger players to be able to support them in the coming season.
Chelsea must learn from Manchester city how to recruit players, where Manchester City does not buy many players, but one or three players they buy can contribute as expected. Chelsea has spent a lot of money in the transfer window but the quality of the players they bought have not contributed much to the team progress.

There is no hope left for Pogba. It's really too late for Juventus to come back from the comeback that they had to lose a moment ago. Juventus needed to strengthen their midfield. You know, Fagioli has been banned by the court. Hojbjerg is a nice goal and will add a lot to Juventus' midfield, the closer they are to this goal the better. Hojbjerg has a good career and will adapt to the Italian league if the transfer takes place quickly.

Chelsea is a big club and they need players who can deliver and keep getting results for the club. I don't really believe in this idea of buying young players and hoping that they will deliver in the future. Big clubs go for players who are ready to deliver at the immediate. There is no guarantee that these players will deliver anything good in the future. Other clubs will also have their recruitment strategy for the future and they are still making success presently. Gathering inexperienced players doesn't make any sense, they should mix experienced plyers with inexperienced players so that there will be balance in the team.

So far it looks as if Chelsea will still need a lot of time to get back to their shape from years ago or maybe from the year when they won the Champions League. The biggest problem will be to get back into the top four. There are more and more teams that turned into fierce contenders for those valuable Champions League qualifiers. I doubt that within a year or so Chelsea can push aside teams like Liverpool, Arsenal, Manchester City, Aston Villa and some of the other teams that are at least on eye-level with Chelsea.

That would be a pretty good addition IMHO. I don't care how much they have to spend for De Ligt. Arsenal need big players to get the title. For 2 seasons they are pretty close to the championship but still it's not enough. Why don't they spend more and secure the championship. Team chemistry is already good but they need 2 or 3 big additions to the squad. Other title contenders have big rosters and have plenty of options for rotation. Arsenal have smaller rotation. They need to sign more quality players.

Young players who are inexperienced but have good potential in the future are good targets. Choosing old players with a good record is certain, but of course it will require a fairly expensive price and many clubs will fight over it. it's just another option to choose. Chelsea is starting to hunt for talented young players such as Pape Daouda Diong, who is a 17-year-old midfielder from Senegal. However, the 17 year old midfielder will only join Chelsea in the summer of 2024. This is because Daouda Diong will only be 18 years old in 2024. Apart from Daouda Diong, Chelsea has also confirmed recruiting Ecuador wonderkid, Kendry Paez

According to some rumors, the England nation team is trying to convince Guardiola to join them for the next World Cup.


I don't think he will accept, however it may go with the Spain team...
