⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Finally, osimhen has been opening his eyes. He is not eyeing to play in the premier league according to the latest report. I have been waiting this for long time and he finally aware if he will always stuck at the same place if he was not making a movement to the other club.
I remember that osimhen has been linked to the chelsea or arsenal. There will be very strict competitions to get him as long as his price will be still a sense price.

Osimhen needs to think about his future. Napoli will give nothing for him and he needs to move on. The current squad was declining so hard and he needs to make a surprise move for that.

Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has confirmed his desire to play in the Premier League in the future but has stressed his commitment to his current side.

The player shall not need to think a lot about his commitment with the current side. I do support him to leave from napoli. Napoli was just lucky last season and osimhen will able to get more achievement once he will join in the EPL clubs.
Im only guessing the price that needs to be paid by EPL clubs to get him will be around 150 millions or less. Im not expecting more caused by it will become non sense price for EPL clubs.

Im quite happy by seeing him was aware if being stuck in the same place for a long time will not even help him to develop himself.

When Real Madrid was disappointed by Mbappe because he canceled his transfer and chose to extend his contract with PSG, Real Madrid did not dwell too much on this failure. Because now Real Madrid is more focused on targeting other players. In the 2024 summer transfer market, Real Madrid wants to focus more on bringing in a new left-back. One player who is currently the focus of the Spanish capital team is Bayern Munich defender, Alphonso Davies. Davies is Real Madrid's main target because they need a new left-back. However, Los Blancos are likely to face obstacles from Bayern Munich. If Davies's contract extension is not completed within the next two months, Real Madrid could step in to obtain his services.

Where the heck did you get it? Despite my diligent efforts, I have been unable to locate the most recent news confirming whether Mbappe has agreed to extend his contract with PSG. You can at least try to mention the news that would be redirecting others to the source.
As far as i know that if anything can happen with real madrid. I tell you something, did you remember when ancellotti has been making an agreement to be a national coach for brazil? Thing can change easily in a matter of weeks and ancellotti has been extending his contract with real madrid.
It proves that if you can't really predict the movement from real madrid and this is the fact. People can't really predict it. Im not even seeing mbappe has denied it the rumor about him to go to the real madrid.

People need to remember that if madrid was always trying to make everything being unpublished to the public. Public can wait till the official announcement from mbappe and real madrid itself. Real madrid has some great wingers like vini.
Why does club need to target davies? Real madrid needs only to get a new striker who can perform as good as benzema and this is really needed by the club since there was no a good 9 in real madrid. Joselu is not likely extending his contract in real madrid.

Chelsea hiring Mourinho again is not a matter of deserve or not, but it's not the time for how the managerial style of Mourinho who will demand new players again. He is not the type of a manager who would build a team for the future which is what has been a trajectory for Chelsea right now.

Chelsea claim they are building players for the future but at what cost? Relegation may be the future if they continue to play badly. Arsenal under Arsene Wenger was a club that focused on developing young talents. Chelsea has never been that club.

The speculation about Newcastle's interest in Mourinho is intriguing. I'm sure it wont gonna happen because Newcastle seem to have policy of developing players which is not what Mourinho will do.

Things have changed at Newcastle since the club was bought by Saudi Arabia. They have gone form a team struggling with relegation to a team with Champions league football, the new owners have the money to make Newcastle a strong side like Manchester City. They just need a good manager who can help them achieve their goals.

This is not the time to see Real Madrid lamenting over what they have and whatever they don't have. If they really want Kylian Mbappe to be part of the squad, then they'll make things right now and work towards the next five so it could be a success for them. I do believe they'll get him signed up and make good use of the youngin Endrick as his backup striker for the central forward position/role as he returns from loan.

It'll be unwise if Real Madrid misses out on a big name like Kylian Mbappe despite the fact that he rejected them when they made moves for him.

For Alphonso Davies, he has already won all it takes in the German Bundesliga League Competition. There's nothing else to win, I can only day he wants personal records but that I highly doubt.
You can't reject a move to Real Madrid whenever they come calling ( Take a look at Toni Kroos Davies, He'll have to look back and learn from history ) I see Real Madrid wants to build a team around creativity and pace, damnit, Real Madrid would be difficult to handle next season. It'll be all about quick transition and fast plays.

The English Premier League isn't a new league competition for Timo Werner who previously played in the competition in two seasons with his former club Chelsea and if he can be prolific for the club in the remaining months of the season, Tottenham Hotspur's management might consider signing him on permanent basis

To be honest, I personally do not rate Timo Werner highly. Go back to his time at Chelsea and you can imagine how clumsy and awkward Timo Werner was. Specifically, he has many problems that a striker should not have: poor mentality and slow decision making. However, Timo Werner still has his strengths such as speed and the ability to choose good positions.
With Tottenham, the usual way of playing is to push high from behind to lure the opponent forward. Once the opponent presses, there is more space behind, giving Ange Postecoglou's team the opportunity to execute what they often call an “artificial counter-attack” – keeping control but exploiting the space quickly Quick, looks like a counterattack. With his speed, Werner can certainly take advantage of this style of play. Tottenham may have targeted this style of play for Werner, leading to his recruitment. Hopefully in the future, he can improve his finishing ability and make faster decisions, potentially becoming a good replacement for Son Heung-min.

Former Chelsea and RB Leipzig played, Timo Werner have made a u-turn back to the English Premier League but this time is playing for another elite EPL club that consider Timo Werner to become an important player in the frontline. Tottenham Hotspur are not sleeping this time around, they're in for everything that would put a major title in their collection. Tottenham Hotspur signing Timo Werner who have stand out to become one of the brilliant choices selected by the coach. But on a second thought, we know how vulnerable and inconsistent Timo Werner can be but I hopes he's able to reduce it to its minimum form because he's already experienced player in EPL.

Well the move of Firmino to Chelsea could probably be a rumor especially as Chelsea is a squad of youngsters and wouldn’t need a Firmino or Benzema. Yes the two are quite good and have good experience but I think they’ll prefer having a young striker with lots of potential than these two. I think Manchester United are the ones that are more likely to sign Benzema, the rumors are everywhere and I think it might come to psst, based on  Manchester United's history of signing older experienced attackers during the January window on loan, but in Benzema's case they could buy him completely.

 Osimhen moving to the Bridge will be quite better than the 2 amd I know the Chelsea boss doesn’t mind splashing the cash. Financially the option of these 2 isn’t a good one.Well money could be the difference here and that could attract Benzem or Firmino to the bridge, so we’ve got to wait till the end of the window to see what happens.

Chelsea currently only has young players, they need a striker with experience in the European leagues, while Firmino and Karim Benzema were great strikers when they were at Liverpool and Real Madrid, Chelsea need him, that's why there are many rumors linking Firmino and Karim Benzema, but who knows if it's true Whether or not these rumors are true, we can see Chelsea's decision later whether they really recruit players who are no longer young. Karim Benzema himself is 36 years old and Firmino is 32 years old.

Recruiting Victor Oshimen is much better than these two players because Victor Oshimen is still young and can still be used as a long-term investment for Chelsea, even though Chelsea have to dig deep into their pockets, but the question is whether Victor Oshimen is willing to be at Chelsea while he have decided to be in a comfort zone with Napoli, while Napoli themselves have no intention of selling him to any club including Chelsea, well, let's just wait for the final information on the transfer later. I hope there is something that surprises us all.

[JeffBrad12]

Chelsea looking to recklessly spend more money on transfers? It’d be good if they actually decided to coach the £1,500,000,000 signings that they have already made.
Firmino and Benzema have been true legends of the game but they are past their peak.

Chelsea do not care about spending a lot of money when there is a striker who is wanted will definitely be bought. No Chelsea only want instant and already famous players at any price will be bought. Lol

If I was to also be of advise, I will ask Chelsea to get Victor Osimhen into their team no matter how much it will take them to grab the guy. He's such an intelligent, humble and hard-working player who will always stay twice tall to make sure the club triumph. What I'm scared of is overuse of the player. If he is signed into Chelsea and he delivers well in the club.

Stop to expect big from a player that has not yet confirmed to join in chelsea. In fact, chelsea never sent bid for him and i think we shall refrain from talking him at this moment. Im not against him but chelsea has not yet made official statement regarding whether the club will pursue him.
Overuse? It's only happens when he can deliver but if the opposite thing will happen, then he will become another player who will sit on the bench. Do you think the management will be willing to grab him if napoli priced him 250 millions?

Don't be so crazy and it will not happen. There is a lot of an alternative solution that can be tried by the club like guirassy from stuttgart. Osimhen was only performing better last season.
He is a flop this season and i have no expectation for him even if he will join in the premier league team as well. Osimhen has confirmed to go to the premier league very soon. Im only wondering which club that will try to pursuit him.
Arsenal could potentially become a strongest candidate to get him with an insane offer.

Napoli has not yet released any statement regarding the possibility of osimhen to leve from napoli then join in another club. So, this is still a rumor and nothing has been confirmed by both of parties.

Maybe Newcastle owners should sack Eddie Howe and sign Jose Mourinho who just lost his job yesterday with As Roma as they have parted ways.
He is very experienced and is a big coach, he needs a club who has the money to sponsor whatever player he wants, if they can do that, watch Jose Mourinho take them to the Champions League Competition and also possibly compete for the Premier League Competition.

Chelsea has a failed manager, but I don't know if he has learnt from his previous failures. Mauricio Pochetino I believe is not that man for Chelsea, he can't win them the Premier League.
He can go ahead to win them the Cup game but not the Premier League.

Mikel Arteta better all he needs right now is a new midfielder and a central forward!!

I'm waiting to see some news about Mourinho and his next destination but all I can see in the news about this famous coach is how he is leaving Roma and how they didn't respect him as they had to.
Mourinho had good performances in many teams including Chelsea and there is a high chance for him to return to Chelsea because currently, Chelsea is not in a good situation with their new coach even after spending a huge amount of money on this team and the player they bought

It is not yet clear where Mourinho is going after parting ways with Roma, he is currently unemployed, I think in his capacity as a coach it is not too difficult for him to find a new club. Regarding returning to Chelsea, there have been no rumors about this, but looking at Chelsea's performance under Pochettino's management, Mourinho's presence is really needed to improve Chelsea's quality. Mourinho, who has managed Chelsea for a long time, has found it easier to adapt to the club atmosphere and the EPL atmosphere, but seeing Chelsea's direction, which is still having difficulty finding the best performance, The presence of a new coach is highly anticipated at this time.

Three clubs that I guess will have the opportunity to be coached by Mountinho, two club in the English Premier League, Manchester United and Chelsea because both of them are not in very good condition, even though they are coached by Mourinho, it is not a guarantee that there will be good changes because it looks like Mourinho has lost his touch, and one another club is Ittihad FC in the Saudi Pro League, this club is in very bad condition as the defending champion has experienced many defeats and the chances of him being able to get success in the Saudi Pro League are much greater than staying in European leagues where the competition is quite different, but it could be he will wait until this season is over and will coach in the new season, but as I mentioned Mourinho has lost his touch and considering coaching in a league where the competition is easier would be a good option for him.
Meanwhile, him not being respected at Roma is normal because club management will assess his current performance, not what he has done, unless he resigns when the team he coaches is in very good condition.

There's only a month before quarter final in Europa League begins, it's too fast to sack Mourinho. I don't expect Roma will achieve anything in this season, De Rossi wasn't proven as a good manager, he's just a senior player. There have been many senior players that not capable when they're become manager, De Rossi could be one of them.

Which the next club that Mourinho will join? Manchester United or Chelsea?

[beerlover]

It is impossible for Manchester United to be willing to pay a high price for a player who is already 36 years old, he can no longer maintain his performance like he is still playing for Real Madrid because he is getting older. The Premier League relies more on strength and speed, Benzema is no longer able to run as fast as before and his strength is also decreasing due to age. Bringing in Benzema with an expensive dowry was a blunder by Manchester United because previously they had parted ways with players who were considered old.

Manchester Utd must think carefully if they want to buy Karim Benzema at a high price because this player is no longer able to play in the EPL considering that he is no longer young and most likely his stamina is not as strong before when he was at Madrid. However, it seems that Man Utd is not the only one interested in bringing in Benzema because PSG also intends to return Benzema to the European league so this will be hot transfer news if that really happens, we'll see which team succeeds in bringing in Madrid's mainstay player, will the team that brought him in not regret that Benzema's transfer fee is very expensive considering that he cannot be used as a long-term investment for the team.

High price? I feel like if he wants to leave, he can leave the money on the table and then the team has to let him go, United would get him for free. Now I can understand you might think that if he is contracted to a club, why would a club not get paid right? Well, if they paid him for what he played, and did not pay him what he didn't, then he doesn't get to be paid for the rest of it, contract is mutually terminated and they have only paid him for the games he went out and played.

This means, if he wants to leave, then he can leave, there is really nothing that they can do, and that has to be the most important part. I understand that we are talking about a player that means something to them, but if he wants to leave, then they can't keep him.

In fact, if you think about Roma's bad results so far, it is not entirely Mourinho's fault and more precisely, Roma is indeed a poor club that cannot provide a larger budget so that Mourinho can target the players he is targeting. Now we also know that in the end Roma can only get a coach from their former legend, namely De Rossi and I am sure that Roma will not be able to sign a better coach with their current finances.

I think it's better for Mourinho to return to Chelsea because apart from that being his home, on the other hand he will get a very large budget from Todd Boehly to be able to get the players he wants and if he returns to Manchester United it won't necessarily make Mourinho better. Moreover, Manchester United is a problematic club and on the other hand, their ideals are too high if they want to try to win the title.

[joniboini]

Meanwhile, him not being respected at Roma is normal because club management will assess his current performance, not what he has done, unless he resigns when the team he coaches is in very good condition.

I saw a video interviewing Roma fans about how they feel about it, and it was mixed. Some of them feel sacking Mourinho is a bit harsh considering the team's quality and their recent fixtures, while others feel like a change is required but not with De Rossi(?). I'm a bit curious so I checked social media, and the narrative is quite similar. I guess Mourinho is still considered to be one of the better coaches that they need to stick with for a little longer. On the other hand, there is also a claim related to his 3rd year tenure curse. I don't really buy it, but he has some problems that need to be fixed if he wants to stay at a club for 5 years or more.

Now Daniele De Rossi is temporary coach to replace Jose Mourinho and this contract lasts for half season, Daniele De Rossi is also former AS Roma legend player so this might make his job easier in building AS Roma until this season ends.
It is not yet clear who will be the actual coach for AS Roma next season but what is clear is that Daniele De Rossi does not have much experience in coaching and if he makes him the permanent coach by extending his contract then it would be premature decision.
AS Roma must be able to get coach who can really build better team because they have failed to take advantage of several opportunities in the fight for the title.

We know that AS Roma front line is quite good and the two players Lukaku and Dyabala are the two keys to their success.
But that is not enough because there is still need for some really strong line-ups, such as for the midfield and back line.

I was quite surprised by the decision so quickly made by AS Roma regarding the dismissal of Jose Mourinho, but what was clear was that it was quite sad to see Jose Mourinho expression, who looked so sad at having to end his coaching period early.

Lose against a club with a better quality was a common thing but roma was still sitting very close to the top 4. It was a stupid decision to sack mourinho. The stupid club like roma can only know that how to win without even considering how much funds must be allocated to strengthen the club.
This is the main that has been occured and it's pretty hard to be solved. People were thinking de rossi was not the right choice and roma will be declining even harder. Roma never puts respect on its coach. No doubt that mourinho being sacked when he was only making a little mistake.

Roma is still playing in europa league too. It's still a big achievement for a poor club who is rarely funding its coach to buy the quality players in the market. No doubt that many people are feeling so angry.
Some said that if mourinho deserves to be sacked but is there a guarantee if de rossi can do better than mourinho? I don't even agree with the decision to sign de rossi as a new coach.
It has been making so many fans were feeling contradicted with it. It is worth mentioning that there are several YouTube videos where a large number of people have expressed their disagreement with the decision made by Roma.

Roma never solves the problem owned by the club like having player which was injury prone like dybala. This guy was only playing a few times in the big matches.

Roma has only won 1 of the last 5 matches in all competitions, including 3 defeats. They lost 0-2 at Lazio's field in the quarterfinals of the Italian National Cup, then 1-3 to AC Milan in Serie A, falling to 9th place on the rankings. Roma lost too many pillars recently due to injuries, including Dybala, Sanches, Smalling, Abraham, and Aouar. Understandably, they cannot maintain their form. This is coach Jose Mourinho's third season with Roma.  Roma could not continue to be patient. They decided to fire him.

Rossi will introduce himself to Roma fans as the new coach in the match against Verona. If the Rome team achieves good results in the rest of the season, Rossi can be completely trusted. If the team continues to play poorly, Rossi's end will be like Mourinho's.

I do feel that how disappointed mourinho with the decision from roma. This is a huge risk decision caused by mourinho has been always successfully giving roma a trophy and good achievement last season and that's not enough for the club. Im only wondering what target owned by this poor club?
Roma is a poor club, and this club was expecting to get everything without even using its own capital. This is a disaster for roma and i hope that everything will be fine soon. Im only concerned about the fact that if roma was not as good as what it used to be.

Im doubtful about the performance of roma under de rossi. That guy has zero experience and people were also agreed if it was a bad decision to take him as a new coach for the club. Let's see what's the result from recruiting him as a new coach.

I think it's better for Mourinho to return to Chelsea because apart from that being his home, on the other hand he will get a very large budget from Todd Boehly to be able to get the players he wants and if he returns to Manchester United it won't necessarily make Mourinho better. Moreover, Manchester United is a problematic club and on the other hand, their ideals are too high if they want to try to win the title.

Chelsea's willingness to do that will determine whether or not it will happen, but it seems that Chelsea still has faith in Pochettino. The fans can't force the club to sack poch then replace him with JM. Mou needs to find a new coach who can help the club to handle everything.
I meant that if we have been seeing so many problems around roma. De rossi is not having capability to push roma to get better result than mourinho. Let's see.
