⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Hirose UK]

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.

Rumors that Liverpool will recruit Mbappe have been circulating since few days ago and indeed Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp want Mbappe to help them win the Premier League title.
Jurgen Klopp himself has been interested in Mbappe for long time, namely when Mbappe was still playing with AS Monaco, but due to several obstacles and Mbappe himself being interested in PSG, he prioritized having an agreement with PSG.

But when talking about finances, Liverpool does not have the resources to be able to recruit Mbappe and this is one of the obstacles which, if forced, could affect Liverpool finances in the future.
Real Madrid remains the team that Mbappe is worthy of prioritizing and several parties have also stated that Mbappe prioritizes Real Madrid over Liverpool.

In fact, there are only two teams that can afford to pay Mbappe and can provide the he wants, these two team are Real Madrid and Manchester City.
These two team have very large finances and they will be able to spend large amounts of money to be able to have Mbappe for several seasons.

Napoli have just increased their strength and this time they have recruited a player in the fullback position who will also act as a back-up for Di Lorenzo. He is Pasquale Mazzocchi from Salernitana and with this Napoli definitely wants to improve the performance which they feel has been lacking recently. Pasquale Mazzocchi's transfer fee is a very cheap 3 million euros and it seems that Napoli are not really looking for expensive players this January and are more concerned with the stability of squad depth to face the rest of the season.

Apart from that, Napoli will definitely also make other transfers, especially midfield and I think they have to do it because the flow of the ball from the middle feels quite congested with the current options. This is so that Osimhen and the other attackers can have more freedom when carrying out attacks.

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

For now, I also think he won't move to Liverpool although it would be a good sporting fit. Mbappe wants to win the Champions League. PSG doesn't currently have the coach and the team to achieve that. The season's group stage of the CL has shown that the team has a lot of problems. He would certainly have a better chance with Liverpool to win the cup, but I think Real Madrid will get the nod.

I think it is more likely that he will be transferred to Real Madrid instead of Liverpool, but Real will do this at the end of the season. At the end of the season, Mbappe will be free and they can transfer him for free. If they want to transfer during the break, PSG will not accept an offer lower than 100 million Euros. This would be an illogical move for Real.

[Strongkored]

Because as far as I can see Liverpool still doesn't suit Mbappe.

It looks like that because Liverpool's typical game is more collective where all players have almost the same role in being able to score goals, while Mbappe would be more suited to playing at a club where he would be the center as a striker who receives passes even though Mbappe always has the ability to play with different strategy also has very good abilities as a passer and also a goal scorer, but Liverpool is not a club that will want to give Mbappe a fantastic salary, whereas for Mbappe apart from being able to get a team that can win him many titles, of course it is also a team that will also be able to provide his salary is not much different from what he got at PSG, and Liverpool is not the type of club that will make history by breaking player purchase records, so Mbappe going to Liverpool is very unlikely as you say although perhaps for different reasons.

Bayern Munich are said to be thinking about Eric Dier option for the centre-back position. Eric Dier can be considered as a consistent defender in his career so far. His average rating has been similar over the years but he has always been an average defender in the Premier League. But Bayern Munich might be thinking as an alternative defender at the same time.

Because Kim Min-jae is leaving for national duty and he will probably be out for quite a while. In his absence the number of real defenders will be lower. Goretzka and Kimmich might be also used in this kind of situations but it would be better to use natural centre-backs.

I don't agree with you when you said that nobody watches the MLS. It might be that in your region nobody watch the MLS but others are watching it. Giroud will do well if he join Inter Miami and I don't think anyone will discriminate him. There are big names there and it will be a good move for him and playing along side Messi will be great.

You need to check MLS thread in this forum, the last reply was December 25, 2023, no one interested in that league. How you can be sure Giroud will do well? everyone know Messi is a GOAT in football, but after he join this team, he doesn't change anything. Currently Inter Miami's rank is 14th from 15 teams.

Messi, Busquet, Alba and Suarez, as I said they were ex-Messi's teammates.

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.

Manchester United need players who can make real changes to the team. But it seems Erik Ten Hag is clueless when it comes to transfer dealings and recruitment of players. In the last two transfer windows, Erik Ten Hag has made a number of transfers and yet the team is still in the position they were in before. And I believe they will be heading in the same direction if they sign Timo Werner in this transfer window to boost Manchester United’s attack.

True but i need to remind you that if the team has scouting team. Ten hag can also try to talk with his scouting team before try to recruit the player. It seems like that ten hag never tries to consult with his scouting team.
This shall be criticized by its fans. Ten hag was making so many unbelievable decision to buy the players that were performing the worst in their old club. The players like onana and mount were total flop consider from their horrible performance in chelsea and intermilan. It must be noted that if ten hag shall be also consulting with all of his scouting team. The only thing that makes me doubt why did the scouting team agree with the decision from the head coach if they thought that those players would become flop?
It's very strange to see that how ten hag gets more and more privillage in the manchester united while de delivers nothing to the club. I can't even believe it.

It must be noted that if this is another problem owned by manchester united that needs to be sorted out soon. Many people are also feeling so tired with all of them. In fact, those players recruited by ten hag gave nothing for manchester united.
Mount's career is finished on manchester united soon. I don't know what to say that but mount will not be playing again soon. Manchester united can try to sell him back again to the another club.

Yes, currently Bayern Munich is in a difficult situation because several of their main defenders have to be absent at the moment, Kim Min-jae, who has been a mainstay, has to be absent because he is defending the national team, while Matthijs de Ligt cannot be fully expected because he has not yet 100% recovered from his injury at this time, like it or not, of course they have to look for a new defender who is able to become a wall in Bayern Munich back line, as you said, Eric Dier is a realistic target for Bayern Munich at the moment and I think the second attempt to get Eric Dier will be realized this season after Previously Bayern Munich failed to get him in the summer of 2023, because currently Tottenham has a quite capable defender duo, namely Micky Van de Ven and Cristian Romero and so I think Tottenham will not mind letting Ericj Dier go this season.

The idea of having two of the brightest talents, Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe, in the Premier League is undoubtedly exciting for football fans. It could intensify the competition between clubs and add another rivalries, enhancing the overall spectacle of the league.

Mbappe arrival could be another reason for Mo Salah to stay because he is the best creator in premier league to feed Mbappe with his passes. People seeing Salah needs to go for Mbappe to come is just solely the wage issue. Salah is the highest earner in Liverpool that supposes to free up financial expenditure. A trio of Salah, Gakpo, and Mbappe could potentially form a formidable attacking force for Liverpool. I dont Manchester United fit into the discussion for Mbappe destination for some reasons.

Rather than choosing Mbappe, of course Liverpool will still choose Mo Salah because he has become a symbol of Liverpool and has proven to make a big contribution. Liverpool will not carelessly take advantage of Mbappe trend and ignore what Mo Salah has provided so far. If on the other hand it turns out that Liverpool are really interested, then Mo Salah could feel disappointed with the news. After all Mbappe and PSG have now re-entered into a new agreement in which it is likely that Mbappe will finish the ongoing competition. PSG still needs Mbappe services in the UCL because in round 16 it is still not enough for PSG to feel safe.

Dreaming of Mbappe competing in the Premier League is the dream of many people, there is Haaland who is his competitor. But will that happen this season? While rumors of Mbappe close relationship with Madrid are still quite hot, the behind the scenes deal hasn't already happened. Madrid postponed the purchase in the January transfer window and are waiting for Mbappe next summer.

These two team have very large finances and they will be able to spend large amounts of money to be able to have Mbappe for several seasons.

As we all know, one of the main reasons why Kylian Mbappe is trying to leave Paris Saint Germaine is because of his quest to win the UEFA champions league trophy and as a club with the most successful record in the competitive, I think Real Madrid has a better advantage in securing the signature of the France international more than any other club. Liverpool without doubt is a big European that's won the UEFA champions league on Five different editions but currently I think Real Madrid has a better chance of winning than Liverpool does.

That being said, I am very optimistic that Mbappe will chose Real Madrid ahead of any other European team if he should finally leave Parc des Princes this summer.

Messi's contribution after moving from Camp Nou to another team is no longer as successful as at Barcelona in statistical terms.
GOAT because he managed to complete the world cup trophy.
At inter Miami, he didn't change anything. Although I don't watch MLS, only watch Inter Miami highlights, MLS games are not as tight as SPL. Messi's presence in MLS has no impact, let alone Giroud.

The SPL competition is much more exciting than MLS.

Mbappe's champions league dream is still very much a possibility but not in this transfer window and definitely not this season.
The transfer windows for premier league sides ends at around 11pm GMT on February 1 and any team not capitalizing on this information would have to make do with their squad till the end of season.

Surprise! Surprise!

The forward joined Al-Ahli in the summer transfer window from Liverpool on a free transfer. He could be set for a move back to the Premier League this month as Fulham are interested in signing him, according to talkSPORT, while Sheffield United had previously wanted him.

https://www.goal.com/en/lists/roberto-firmino-return-premier-league-fulham-liverpool-striker/blt41df6c70f4d0819c

Fulham reportedly interested in bringing firmino back to the EPL again. That's gonna be a very good news caused by the club really needs a good attacker. Fulham was not playing so badly but its attacking line sometimes being so wasteful.
It's not acceptable to see that fulham was missing so many chance. Having firmino in the club would be boosting the performance from fulham. I prefer to see him join in the fulham but let's see the further development from this club.

This is very good news for all of people. It is heartening to know that there is a team that has an interest in bringing him back to the European competition. It seems like that if people will be also very interesting to see firmino to be a part of EPL club.
He has made it clear that the only problem for him is not wanting to be a part of Liverpool's rival club. This is the thing that may prvent him to come soon.

Bobby back to Liverpool and Fulham cannot happen, Liverpool cannot drop Darwin Nunez for Roberto Firmino right now and heading to Fulham, they already brought in the former Wolverampton Central Forward Raul Jimenez into the squad. I don't see him jumping into any of em. Rather, Nothingham Forest before they signed Nuno Esprito Santos was linked with the move to sign the Brazilian. I'm certain he won't be moving to any of them clubs called above.

I'd rather suggest Juventus who need goal scoring player for their attack. Firmino can indeed do that for them. They're speculated to sell Dusan Vlahovic, if really they want to then, they'll have to get a replacement after offloading Dusan Vlahovic.

Lionel Messi is not as successfull as before when he was still at Barcelona, his move to Princes Park did not give PSG the title that PSG wanted, such as the UCL title. even though when Messi was still there PSG still had Neymar and Mbappè, but it did not give anything at all, just the French Cup and domestic league titles. Lionel Messi is indeed the most successfull GOAT player since his career in football and he also has many trophie. Maybe now he want to retire, therefore being in a team thats is not very well know at the moment, this will not be a big pressure for Messi, unlikes when he is still at PSG and Barca.

United already spent a lot of money on players, spending some more will not solve it, or at least they shouldn't do it at the January window and rush it, they should wait until the summer. Why? Well, from 1st of June to basically around mid September, they could get rid of anyone they want, and get anyone they want, still would need to spend a lot, but they would also get paid from many things as well.

I believe that the best thing we could assume at this point about them would be just making sure they get rid of terrible players that they had some hopes about and failed. With a new squad they will definitely be doing better next season. This can't be rushed, if they rush, they may make exactly the same mistakes they did last year.

I had the same thought. But what they need to do first is eliminate Ten Hag because he has spent a lot of money for nothing. If there is no change in coach, then he will continue to make the same blunders and there will be no such thing as a major overhaul. Man United does have some great players, but up to this moment, it seems that they do not have strong synergy and chemistry, so it will be difficult for Man United to achieve good results.

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

For now, I also think he won't move to Liverpool although it would be a good sporting fit. Mbappe wants to win the Champions League. PSG doesn't currently have the coach and the team to achieve that. The season's group stage of the CL has shown that the team has a lot of problems. He would certainly have a better chance with Liverpool to win the cup, but I think Real Madrid will get the nod.

I think Mbappe's PSG situation is stable. His new deal with them seems good to both sides. Based on my research, PSG relies heavily on Mbappe. I cant fathom them without him; he's crucial. Although Liverpool might provide a solid foundation for Champions League glory, Im not sure he would fit in with their present roster. They've got something great with Mo Salah, so adding Mbappe may be difficult.

Real Madrid is a more likely destination, but not immediately. They might avoid a high transfer price by waiting until Mbappe's free at the conclusion of the season. Real shouldnt spend over 100 million Euros mid-season when they can acquire him for free. PSG wont sell their best player cheaply, and Real Madrid knows patience is key.

Yes, even though they are preparing large funds to bring in a number of new players, they should not be hasty in deciding which players they will bring in, because I agree that it could be their next failure which we know better as a failed transfer.
They can learn a lot from Chelsea who spent a lot of money to bring in players, but most of the players they brought in did not bring fresh air to the club. Manchester United must be more careful in looking at a player, and also do not bring in players because they like them. Because right now I see Erik Ten Hag bringing in players based on his liking for the player, but not giving anything extraordinary to the team.

[MinoRaiola]

Two top clubs in italy have brought new player. Inter Milan have bought Tajon Buchanan for 7 million eura transfer fee from FC Brugge in Belgium. He is 24 years young and has already played 35 games for the Canadian nationalteam. Serie A is a new level for him, he played in Belgium, Canada and America in the last years.

The other club is SSC Napoli. They have a new on for their defense. Pasquale Mazzocchi comes from US Salernitana, is 28 years old and has been playing in Italy all his life. I think he will want to stay in the Serie A because Salernitana will not be able to stay this season in the Serie A, they are on last place.

[Leviathan.007]

Since we are getting closer to the match between Barcelona and Napoli both teams are getting ready for this match especially Napoli is still trying to improve the team before they face Barcelona because they know this game is not going to be easy at all for them. That's why they decided to hire another player and improve their team.
Davinson Sánchez, the player of Galatasaray is linked to Napoli and they want to hire this Colombian, 27-year-old center-back player hoping to see him help them against Barcelona in the Champions League match.
