⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[DanWalker]

You are too demeaning to MLS by saying that no one watches the competition there, maybe the level of enthusiasm of football fans is not like in the top European leagues, but you need to know that every team always has fans who are always loyal to watch the matches played by their favorite team. Moving to MLM is not a bad choice for Giroud, especially since he is 37 years old.

They are professional players, there is no discrimination in the team, every player will always work together for the same goal. Giroud's position as a pure striker will make it easier to finish with experienced teammates, he can have fun at the end of his career with world class players.

It could be said that there are quite a lot of spectators for the MLS League, it's just that the level of enthusiasm for this league is different from other top European leagues. For me, the question is not a loss or not, but whether there is an opportunity for Giroud other than joining the team there, because without an opportunity there may not be a more interesting discussion other than accepting the offer. It was said that Cristiano Ronaldo was quite crazy when he decided to join the Saudi Arabian League, but now we can see the effect of his arrival in the league. Although perhaps Giroud does not have the ability to influence the world of football like Cristiano Ronaldo.

Giroud is no longer young and maybe if he has the opportunity he should join the Saudi Arabian League. It cannot be denied that discrimination still exists in football, but because the league rules are strict, the players are quite protected. Giroud is just waiting for the rest of his career at this age and I think the choice to play in the MLM league is not too bad.

Bro, they are professional players and they do things professionally. Giroud won't be discriminated against of course. Have you seen how Messi and Ramos interacted with each other after Ramos joined PSG? They talked with each other like nothing had happened between them. This is what we call professionalism. As for Giroud joining MLS, I don't think it is a wrong decision.

MLS is like a pre-retirement club and Giroud has done enough in his career. So I think he should join MLS and I can tell you he would not be discriminated against.

Exactly, in fact I believe that when things are about Ten Hag they become an imminent problem, or that he thinks he is doing things well, but I really admire his talk to still stay on the same page, I don't know what so many things You can tell the owners of Manchester that they are still there, one thing is that they did very well in AJAX, but things in the PL are very different, and apart from this it is very different to manage a team like MU , that for so many years they have maintained an impeccable reputation, well only until he arrived, because the red sibels are no longer a bit scary and it is lazy to say something like that, before I thought of this team because it gave shit to any other team , especially the power they had in the UCL that they had participated in, but now all that was lost, it was forgotten and they see themselves differently, in fact they look very funny because even on ESPN the commentators seem to be Bullying them, Clearly the humor of some is quite peculiar.

Now, as has been stated before , if you are in a bad mood with your Football , nothing will be good for you, because obviously leaders like Ancelotti and Zidane show that they can always build good teams and champions, the case of Xabi Alonso is also getting closer to make a great history with their team in the Bundeliga, then they are people who do have a clear vision of football, who are not looking for excuses and I am sure that if they were to cause their teams to lose a lot, they would be willing to give take a step aside so that someone else can come and lift that team up, Sometimes you have to understand that if you are not well Qualified Enough for a position , it is because there are things that still need to be learned and you should not harm a team, because otherwise you will come out much better. through the back door , and it is difficult because a Coach must have his Reputation , something like this is Unfortunately Happening to Xavi in Barcelona , as a player the Best , but as a coach , there are Inconsistencies.

United currently are behind in their performance and a lot is obviously wrong with the team. For me I'd say the fault is from both Ten Hag and his players as well. The players fault in the sense that they're being too sluggish in the pitch, they play like there's no interest in the game and they just want to get done with it. The way and manner they give off chances and how smaller teams capitalize on their mistakes to earn a lead from them. They've got good players but the players aren't at their best self week after week.

 Also consider the coach being at fault because many times he'd make a new strategy which in the end doesn't work for them, and then thesame strategy will still be repeated in other games. Not just tactics, both player combinations. Why on earth would a coach still keep implementing a strategy that's failed and isn't even bulging to make corrections? He's the manager and the bigger responsibility is on his shoulder. His job is on the line and if he's been unserious about it, then he should be set to embrace a sack. They've got quality players in the team, he should be able to maximize these players.

Real Madrid has initiated communication with Sevilla regarding defender Juanlu Sanchez. El Real is prepared to pay £25.9 million for Sanchez.
According to Fichajes, quoted from Sportsmole, Real Madrid holds great admiration for the Spanish player and has identified him as a long-term replacement for Dani Carvajal.

Previously, Madrid was also interested in Chelsea captain R James, but now Los Balncos seems to have changed their interest because James is very prone to injury. Juanlu Sanchez is a potential player to be used as a long term option, he is very suitable as a cover for Carvajal in the right back position, and in the future could become Carvajal successor.

Regarding the price of Juanlu Sanchez, I think it is relatively cheap for Madrid, considering that he is still very young. If Madrid recruits Juanlu Sanchez, Los Blancos will automatically release Lucas Vazquez on a free transfer at the end of June, meaning Vazquez will not get a new contract extension.

It seems that Sevilla will not mind releasing this player, because we know they are experiencing a financial crisis. Ancelotti actually needs a center back at the moment, after Alaba and Militao long injuries, but Ancelotti experiment was successful by placing Tchouameni as a good rotation option.

Roberto Firmino is said to have an intention to leave Al-Ahli these days. Fulham are rumoured to be interested in him as well. Other than them I have heard of some Turkish teams having an interest in signing him too. I think his first choice would be to return to the English Premier League. Because he can make more money there than he can in Turkey and he is already very familiar with the league. 

I thought he shouldn't have left Liverpool in the first place but of course he must be earning much more money there. But I mean he was doing quite okay at Liverpool and performing even better than Nunez.

I've read some articles about this issue. I don't know why Firmino too hurry to leave Al Ahli, he still has 1 year contract with Al Ahli. I think he gets good amount of salary and he played regularly in Al Ahli. I see there is no serious reason for him to leave Al Ahli very soon. If he wants to return to EPL, it is not a bad idea. But if he wants to move to Turkish league, I think he is better to stay with Al Ahli. I don't think there is a significant difference between Saudi league and Turkish league. I assume Saudi league is even more popular than Turkish league.

It is his own right to leave Liverpool. I can understand if he decided to leave at that time, he didn't get enough time to play. Since he was no longer a main striker in Liverpool, he preferred to move to SPL. But now, it is a bit confusing why he wants to leave Saudi league too early. I think he still can't prove anything about his quality in Saudi league and he also still has 1 year contract there.

It seems the negotiations between Olivier Giroud and AC Milan were not successful and they are about to lose their player because he is not going to accept the AC Milan offer to extend his contract for a longer, maybe because of financial issues.
Olivier Giroud is now about to leave AC Milan for another team and it seems this player is also linked to MLS teams.
Recently many players they joined Inter Maimi and now Olivier Giroud is about to join this league.

The French striker has said that he is not in a rush to make any transfer decision. He still has till the end of the season to decide on his next line of action. The 37-year-old striker has scored 41 goals in 106 appearances making him an asset regardless of his age. Olivier Giroud has not hidden his intentions to take up a coaching job after he retires from active football and the US MLS looks more attractive for him. He will want to follow the footsteps of Giorgio Chiellini who is having a splendid career with Los Angeles FC. Except Rossoneri gives him a lucrative contract, we might see him move to a big spending club in the United States because he has no intention of moving to Saudi Arabia. For now, I think the Frenchman is more concerned about helping the Stefano Pioli side to compete for the Italian league title.

I think it will be an okay decision if Giroud decides to join MLS. I mean MLS is somewhere people go to play before retiring. I think he will enjoy the not so intense playstyle there as well. Serie A can be hell for the strikers because Serie A is a super defensive League. The strikers have to work hard to get goals and stuff

Giroud has achieved many things in his life and I think he should leave Europe if he wants to. He has already been linked with Inter Miami and he might join Messi and his teammates in the upcoming season.

Manchester United are having that assurance of getting new players in this January transfer window but getting players isn't going to solve the problem even with Chelsea. To me they shouldn't go for any player but try to organize themselves, Manchester United have Greenwood that can change the outcome of the team but they intend to go for ex-Chelsea player Timo Werner, to me Manchester United have players who have same ability as this player Werner so is of no need. For Chelsea they too don't need to start struggling with Arsenal to get Ivan Tony because is not really going to change anything. To me if they eventually get Tony, he's going to struggle with the team and some players would still be on the bench, is best to sell some players before getting new ones.

The transfer window will soon get very hot,as different teams will be struggling to get thesame player at their respective clubs,just as Arsenal and Chelsea are fighting it hard to get Ivan Toney,so are other clubs fighting over different players too.For Manchester United,they already have a good team to me,and I will still say it that what is lacking in that team is how the coach manages them,he has not been able to bring out the best in most of those players,he brought in Sancho and Antony to be top wingers that would be terrific to defenders,but so far,they haven't been able to produce the best of themselves,and why they bought them.For Chelsea,I think they are building something incredible with the young players,and with time,they would blend and start getting good results.

Exactly, even if Manchester United buy new players in this transfer window, I don't think he will solve their problems of not winning matches because the problem, in my opinion, is no longer with the players but with how the coach treats them because Manchester United have good players, it's just that the coach can control them and he will be better if they sack him and bring in a new manager so that they can perform well. How can a coach buy Sancho, Antony and casemiro and still performing poorly When Sancho is playing in Dortmund before coming to Manchester, you would know the player is really good and talented, Even Antony is very good in Ajax but I don't know why he can't perform in Manchester United now. Erik Ten Hag has a serious issue, but let's see how he will performs now that some of his key players are returning from injury, because sometimes they will say it's because of the players who are injured that is why Manchester United is playing weak I believe Casemiro will be back before their next league match.

It seems that Sevilla will not mind releasing this player, because we know they are experiencing a financial crisis. Ancelotti actually needs a center back at the moment, after Alaba and Militao long injuries, but Ancelotti experiment was successful by placing Tchouameni as a good rotation option.

Just like you rightly said, Real Madrid according to reports where initially trying to get the services of Chelsea captain Reece James on permanent basis but his recent record of injuries, they've sold switched their attention to Seville right back Juanlu Sanchez. Since the start of the season, Real Madrid defenders have suffered various types of injuries that's kept them sidelined for long and if not for the experience of the club's manager Carlo Ancelotti who has been rotating the squad, they would've conceded many more goals than they have already let in this season.

Seville have been poor in their performances this season but that doesn't change the fact that Juanlu Sanchez is an incredible right back defender. Hopefully, Real Madrid will end up signing him

Recently we saw some news about Real Madrid having another competitor for hiring Mbappe from PSG.
According to some news, we heard Liverpool is also interested in hiring Mbappe and this could make the situation even harder for Real Madrid since they need to hire this player.
But if we take a look at the financial balance in Liverpool we can understand there is a -260 million euros balance there. However, in Chelsea, they have a -788 balance but still hiring a player like Mabbpe doesn't make any sense in Liverpool.

Take for example, the game Arsenal played against West Ham, they had double clear cut chance for Gabriel Jesus to convert the balls into goal with a his head so they could get back into the game but he failed to do that. These players like Gabriel Martinelli also shouldn't be started too much, the thing is that gunner's currently have no bench and depth, that something they'll need to fix. If they had a good goalscorer, they shouldn't have lost the game to Fulham and that of the hammer's ( West Ham United )

I do hope they get Ivan Toney even if it'll be on loan. He's been keeping fit and waiting for his return, I hope his low team performance doesn't affects him.

I don't know why Manchester United will offer Antony Martial a contract extension, how is this possible? I don't know if this was imposed by Jim Radcliffe and his team. But, crazy for real!!

That is without a doubt their biggest weak point this season again. Last season it was quite the same and they haven't really added overwhelming quality and depth to their squad, which is why I don't find it surprising that they are in the pretty much same situation right now. But how would they get themselves out of that if they don't become a title contender? It is problematic since all the high quality players are hunted down by the most renowned clubs of course. Arsenal isn't really financially weak, but if you compare them to the huge clubs there is less they can offer a player. I am not talking in financial terms only here, but in more general terms. If a player has the choice to play for Real Madrid or Arsenal, the answer is quite easy most of the time.

Yep, obviously, mate, he shouldn't leave Liverpool for the first time because his understanding is at top level with the players, and he is also doing quite well in the attacking sense. But unfortunately, money is this that makes you greedy, and he left Liverpool for Saudi Arabia club, and all the Brazilian players have done everything for money; their example is in front of us, such as Neymar Jr., Philippe Coutinho, and Roberto Firmino, but as soon as they all realized that leaving a club for money or earning a lot of money is nothing, despite playing football at a higher level is much better than earning a lot of money while you are playing at a place where football doesn't have any purpose.
 
So you said it right that Roberto Firmino should not leave Liverpool for the first time, but anyway, he comes again, and maybe he will be enjoying football at a higher level, I mean in the Premier League. I hope he doesn't make a mistake by leaving Liverpool again until retirement.

Officially, the 24 year old player stated that he had not yet made a decision regarding his future. Mbappe still has a commitment to Luis Enrique's squad – which is still struggling in the Ligue 1 and Champions League competitions.
But what is still preventing Mbappe from joining Liverpool is Mohammad Salah, because Liverpool can only reach an agreement with Mbappe, who in fact will be free if he releases Mohamed Salah from their player salary list. Mo Salah gets paid up to 18 million euros per year, but if Mbappe joins Liverpool they have to provide a higher salary, but Liverpool won't do that because as you said Liverpool still has problems with the funds they have now.

Regarding Mbappe, I’d love to see him join Liverpool but realistically it’s just not going to happen.

Our owners are too cheap and would never pay the huge wages and likely significant signing on fee that M appe would command. I think he will end up at Real Madrid.

I've never heard any such rumours about Liverpool possibly competing for Mbappe yet. Moreover, they are actively spreading information that Mbappe has already agreed on a move to Real Madrid, of course this will not be made official until the very end, so he says he has not made up his mind yet.

You sure? I found this rumor quite interesting I have to say. When I first read about it I was skeptical like everybody else, but now when I look at the circumstances regarding Salah and his future, I think there is a realistic chance that we will see Mbappe play for Liverpool quite soon. I say a realistic chance, not a high chance. But Klopp can be very convincing and I don't know what Mbappe's stance is at the moment. If he is like a Real Madrid maximalist and he says Real or nothing, ok then there is no point in speculating about this transfer. But I don't think that is Mbappe's position. It would be an awesome transfer because that would give Liverpool some serious impetus.

[Dzigie]

Manchester City is not actually bad in terms of squad. I think his backups are also very good, at least for a backup. Even though they did not get exactly the results they wanted in the Premier League this year, I see their future bright. When they get in shape towards the end of the league, they win consecutive victories and continue to be championship favorites.

Manchester City won consecutive titles because they have a very good squad quality, but after Kevin De Bruyne's injury they couldn't fill his void. I don't expect them to sign a player as good as Kevin De Bruyne because he is a world star. However, they need to sign a creative player in the midfield. Jude Bellingham could have been a great signing for them if they were faster than Real Madrid. Even if Kevin De Bruyne recovers and brings Manchester City back to their old days, they need to sign a midfielder because Kevin De Bruyne is 32 years old.

It will be nice to see Mbappe on Liverpool's jersey who knows if the team is planning to do the unimaginable breaking of bank just to bring him to the team you never can tell. Mbappe is the only one that knows his next move for now but looking at the offers made for him, I agree with you he's finally going to be a Real Madrid player regardless of the rumors flying around that he's still happy at PSG.

This is nothing new because in the previous season Liverpool also still tried to approach Mbappe in several ways even though it didn't work and now they will definitely do the same thing again.

Currently the Salah situation is still a little disturbing them and SPL will definitely make a tempting offer for Salah so that he wants to leave Liverpool and this can also be used well if they want Mbappe to be in Liverpool. The money from selling Salah will definitely not be small and it can be added to make up the shortfall to bring Mbappe from PSG.
It will be interesting whether Madrid will now restart their aggressiveness to bring Mbappe and compete with Liverpool or leave Mbappe the same as before last season. I think this winter transfer will be quite interesting to wait for.

If you really look at the current situation, there are definitely several possibilities that will occur.
Liverpool's chances are slightly open because Salah has been interested by SPL especially since there was a nominal of more than 100 million that was successfully offered before in the summer transfer even though it was rejected outright because in the end it was near the end of the time specified in the transfer but for now there seems to be no more reason to wait if there is an offer for Salah and they want to prioritize Mbappe then indeed this option can be taken to minimize financial losses because surely Mbappe will not be able to get if the release clause is ordinary.

The interesting thing I think if Liverpool can bring Mbappe is of course seeing the real rivalry between Mbappe and Haaland later.

Wait are we seriously linking Mbappe to Liverpool just because he is going to be a free agent on Summer. If he is not going to extend his contract then we all know that its going to be Real Madrid no matter what. It doesnt matter if the other teams would be willing to sacrifice a spot for him, he would go to Real Madrid and its the only team capable to pay him that ridiculous wage that he wants

You're right. It is doubtful if Liverpool wants to spend €200m to sign Mbappe. Liverpool also seems to get difficulty to pay a huge salary of Mbappe. That's why we only think Real Madrid is the only team to sign Mbappe. Real Madrid can pay Mbappe's transfer fees and his salary as well. But Real Madrid president ever said that they only want to sign Mbappe after his contract is over. In this January, Mbappe still has a contract with PSG. So, I think Mbappe won't move anywhere until the end of the season.

I've never heard any such rumours about Liverpool possibly competing for Mbappe yet. Moreover, they are actively spreading information that Mbappe has already agreed on a move to Real Madrid, of course this will not be made official until the very end, so he says he has not made up his mind yet.

There is a rumor but there are no official statements yet from Liverpool management and Mbappe. Anyway, since Mbappe seems already agree to join Real Madrid, it is a very small chance if Liverpool expects to sign him.
