⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[shinratensei_]

The Brazilian's scintillating first-half hat-trick against Barcelona in the Supercopa final took his tally to an impressive 136 goal involvements in 241 appearances for Real. The position of left wing has been his own for many seasons, but he could soon face competition from arguably the world's greatest player in Kylian Mbappe. The Frenchman has long been linked with a move to Madrid and could sign on a free transfer from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer - although he would arrive on an eye-watering £600,000 ($760,000)-a-week wage.

Here we GO! Another rumor is coming. Manchester united reportedly interested to buy vini from real madrid which is costing indefinite amounts of money. Vini has been scoring hatrick against barcelona and i don't even think real madrid was willing to let him leave from the club.
Vini was very happy but manchester united has prepared a very high salary to get him from real madrid. Since mbappe's transfer is still remain unclear but vini is also in the same level as mbappe. He has been valued very high.
His value keeps grow up caused by vini is always performing very well. If real madrid will be selling vini and believe me, it will be shocing a lot of parties.

Real madrid sees vini as one of the greatest winger owned by the club. He was just performing even better after he was coming to the real madrid a few years ago. Vini continously showing significant improvement, which was making the club able to show very good performance.
Im happy if vini will stay in real madrid till he will be 30s. Vini is starting to enter his golden time and move to the MU will be the worst decision to be made on his life. Ten hag has a vision to destroy the career from a good player.

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.

how is it possible that a reliable coach is able to take the team to a higher level while the management is very stingy for me.
even though this is very disappointing, I really support Mourinho departure because he is a very reliable coach and if he serves as a coach in a bad team his reputation will definitely decline and this time I am more relieved to see that Mourinho can save his reputation.

no, I dont agree if Mourinho joins Chelsea because this team is in trouble improving its performance but only has ordinary players and if Mourinho joins Chelsea I'm afraid it will only end the same as at Roma.
I would be more confident if Mourinho at least took a short break to look at a team that has a better future so that it can contribute to achieving higher titles.

Haaland may leave Manchester this summer.

He will have a release clause around 120-150mil and if Guardiola will leave, he will also leave.

Just my 2 cents.

Is this your guess or have you heard about such a logical connection somewhere? It seems to me that, on the contrary, Guardiola’s departure will encourage Haaland to stay, even though Haaland plans to play in all the top European championships (I hope except France haha). In my opinion, Guardiola is acting like an asshole towards Haaland - if you have such a star in your team, you have to praise him, it's just business. But Guardiola, while praising Haaland, does not forget to remind that he considers Messi the best  What an idiot.

Here we go, Suadi Arabia is spending money again. Now Renan Lodi (25 years old) has been brought in from Olympique Marseille. He is moving to Al-Hilal in the Saudi Pro League. There he plays together with many great names:  Ruben Neves, Neymar, Malcom or Kalidou Koulibaly. The transfer fee is 20 million euros. Al-Hilal now have 4 Brazilians and 3 of them have played for the Brazilian national team. So he will meet friends there that he already knows and if everything continues like this he will win the championship this year with Al-Hilal. So it is a good move for him.

Just my 2 cents.

Judging by the content of this post, it simply means that this news isn't a confirmed one but actually a figmentation of imagination and that's I totally disagree with it. Pep Guardiola is still contracted with Manchester City till the end of 2024/25 season and from every accessible report, he's still very much happy with the club so he's definitely not gonna leave the Etihad this summer. Pep Guardiola is rather focused on making sure he wins all the competition that Manchester City are currently involved and if he can possibly do it, it'll simply be a repeat of what he did with the club last season which is winning the UEFA champions league, English Premier League and the English FA Cup.

Erling Haaland is currently injured and is expected to be back to action in less than two weeks from now and when the Norwegian is full fit again, Manchester City will be more strong and competitive than ever

Mostly the transfer from Europa league to Saudi Professional League makes the player career to end, but this is actually a good transfer for Lodi because he can get a trophy in Al Hilal. Marseille is a mediocre team, it's really hard to surpass PSG.

This place is a comfort zone for him since he can't play in a very competitive league.

Mourinho has left his job at Roma. Maybe Mourinho can return to Chelsea one more time and make things right. His second adventure at Chelsea was not so good, but he is the best manager in Chelsea's history. I think he should take charge of Chelsea once again and try to bring Chelsea back to the old days. They spend money on transfers but they don't have someone who can manage the team. I think Mourinho could be the right person for them.

I don’t think Mourinho will be returning to Chelsea. They really do not deserve him. There are speculations Newcastle are interested in Mourinho as manager, I would like to see that happen. I believe that could be the game changer Newcastle needs to become a better contender for the league title. Jose Mourinho has a track record of success, he’s been able to perform miracles in his career. I think people forget how he become the special one. IMO Roma shouldn’t have sacked Mourinho, no manager could have done a better job with that team. Pep Guardiola won the award for best manager yesterday, but Mourinho is one who also deserves that recognition in my opinion. If Pep was given the same team Mourinho managed in Roma, I doubt he will be able to get a better result.

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

Returning to Chelsea ain't no wise decision besides he doesn't work with young players like the present players in Chelsea, they're not well made an it'll take one two seasons before they finally adapt.
Chelsea like Manchester United are currently in need of some quick success bit that don't mean they'll entertain a coach like Jose Mourinho back, believe mez he's tactics are outdated and poor lately they can't win the league with these current Chelsea squad and.

In the Premier League, I'll say he's nearest to return to Newcastle United. Manchester United? Hell No!!

Don't Compare Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho, they're both in a different level. one get results the other doesn't.

Yes, but regardless Mourinho will be suitable for the Chelsea's team at the moment and possibly put Chelsea back into fighting for the top 4 position than having Pochettino still managing the club, at least Chelsea won't be experience all this humiliation losses they've got under Pochettino all this while. Imagine Chelsea still not qualify for Champions League next season having them end the season like this, it will definitely reduce the interest of big players to the club.

There is a big chance that Mou could become the next England manager, he ever mentioned it back in 2023.
Here is the link: https://www.teamtalk.com/news/exclusive-jose-mourinho-clear-plan-become-next-england-boss-decision-roma-future

This guy know alot about the style of English football and Mou is the only person who ever handle different big teams in the Premier League (Manutd, Chelsea and Tottenham)

[Josefjix]

Mauricio Pochettino have no business with the club's growth because he's incompetent with the current positioned channel to him.
With the current performance of Chelsea, I don't think they would stand a chance of qualifying for important postion in the English Premier League, the signs are already there for us to see. I'm curious about the condition of my club, because they're not improving as usual. José Mourinho is currently without a club and I don't that should be something for him to worried about because he's one of the top coach in football and have deliver quite alot of accomplishments in football.

[tiCeR]

But if Real Madrid would be successful in signing Davies, it would be an unbelievable left side for Real Madrid. Just combine the pace of Vinicius Junior and Davies. That would probably be the fastest duo in football. I assume that this is the idea, to add some extra pace to the left side although they are good already. But Davies is well positioned with his contract ending in 2025. It would be the only possibility for Bayern Munich to make some money if they decide to transfer him to Real Madrid. And Davies knows that Bayern Munich would have to raise his salary or else he would let his contract expire and leave the club in 2025.

That might be an option in Ancelotti future plans and it could also be one of the reasons why Madrid have wanted Davies even from previous seasons.
But with that its likely that one of the player will definitely leave if in the end Davies can really be obtained although for now i cannot be sure whether Madrid will intend to bring him in this transfer window or not because of Ancelotti statement that he will not bring a single player for the defense in January this time because Ancelotti is still quite confident with some of their players who can anticipate the defense well even though there are some of their defensive centers injured.

I wasn't really talking about the January transfer window as that is highly unlikely that Bayern Munich would sell a player while looking forward to the Champions League games against the best teams in the world. No top club would sell a player like Davies in a winter transfer window when they are still competing for Europe's most important trophy.

But Ancelotti is planning ahead and that is why he extended his contract. He would love to sign Davies and Mbappe on top of that. This would be an ultra high speed team with Vinicius Junior, Davies and Mbappe. My lord this would be insane for any opponent to defend against.

[EL MOHA]

Imagine Chelsea still not qualify for Champions League next season having them end the season like this, it will definitely reduce the interest of big players to the club.

Interms of experience Mourinho is by far a better option but let’s not forget that even him couldn’t rally back Roma to the champions league, I wouldn’t say he can’t do that with Chelsea but we are disputing the fact that this Chelsea squad is having some major problems beyond coaching ability. That problem is the recruitment, the way Chelsea have been buying players without proper strategy the signing of some big money players like Lavia seem a bit out of the question for me, they should have prioritized an attacking midfielder then and then a proper striker wasn’t Also considered. During The era of The former owner Roman Abrahmovic things weren’t like this, the coach makes the transfer decision and the sporting director. So I don’t see Pochettino

Here we go, Suadi Arabia is spending money again. Now Renan Lodi (25 years old) has been brought in from Olympique Marseille. He is moving to Al-Hilal in the Saudi Pro League. There he plays together with many great names:  Ruben Neves, Neymar, Malcom or Kalidou Koulibaly. The transfer fee is 20 million euros. Al-Hilal now have 4 Brazilians and 3 of them have played for the Brazilian national team. So he will meet friends there that he already knows and if everything continues like this he will win the championship this year with Al-Hilal. So it is a good move for him.

Mostly the transfer from Europa league to Saudi Professional League makes the player career to end, but this is actually a good transfer for Lodi because he can get a trophy in Al Hilal. Marseille is a mediocre team, it's really hard to surpass PSG.

This place is a comfort zone for him since he can't play in a very competitive league.

Moreover, the player does not have a brilliant career in the European league so when he goes to Arabia it will be difficult for European teams to look at him again, he will indeed be comfortable with Al Hilal because they are currently dominating the standings and must also offer a bigger salary than the previous team.

Many players take offers from Arabia because they know that financially it will be safe for them at least during their career.
I myself do not pay attention to Lodi players, if it is so tight for the French League then the Arab League will be much more comfortable for him.

[Smack That Ace]

Benzema to Chelsea could make sense, he is still not "that" old and he could help them for 1.5 years, or even 6 months if he wants to. That way everyone wins, Chelsea gets a striker they need, and Benzema gets out of the situation he is in right now. That should be an important situation for him because it looks like he is not going to be all that happy where he is right now and I believe that he is going to end up with something that has to change on the long run.

I know that we are not going to end up with something all that much, we are going to end up with a situation that would benefit everyone all the while better. I know that we can see Benzema struggling there too, but it looks like it would be worth a try.

He is already 36 years old. I don't know if he will be able to do well with Chelsea. But I think it is worth a shot. Because Chelsea is already not performing well. And they have to try new things. But at the same time I think the problem of Chelsea is not the players, the problem is the authority.

Anyway, I think Chelsea will not make any big mistake that they haven't already done if they bring in Benzema. If anything, if Benzema finds the form that he has been looking for a long time, Chelsea might be very happy and win matches on the back of him. So I think they should try giving him a chance. But they should not expect something extraordinary from him as well. They should remember that they will be bringing in a 36 year old.

I myself do not pay attention to Lodi players, if it is so tight for the French League then the Arab League will be much more comfortable for him.

Lodi is actually a very important player for Marseille and so far he has been one of the defenders who has always been the choice of the Marseille coach, but I think the sale of Lodi to Arabia is none other than Marseile desire due to the financial problems they are currently facing, only in a season Marseille is able to make a profit from the sale of Lodi of almost 12 million euros because previously Marseille bought Lodi for only around 13 million euros and sold it to Al Hilal for around 23 million euros + bonuses reaching 3 million euros, I think it is not surprising for a Ligue 1 club to sell their players if they get a big offer from another club, as we know, so far Ligue 1 clubs except PSG have only relied on selling players as their main income and considering champions is an impossible dream for them, I think for players of Lodi's age, playing In Saudi Arabia it is not an option to improve his football career, especially at his relatively young age, of course if possible he wants to play in a league that can improve his abilities, but of course there is no choice for Lodi other than accepting Marseile's decision to sell him to the Arab League.

Breaking News!

Jordan Henderson has officially parted ways with Al-Ettifaq and this is the first top European player to leave the Saudi league. Previously, we certainly knew that several Saudi league teams had made huge investments to strengthen their squads and introduce their league to people throughout the world. Unfortunately, one of the European players and former Liverpool captain did not feel at home after half a season with Al-Ettifaq and finally with Al-Ettifaq he agreed to terminate his contract.

Now it is reported that Jordan Henderson will join Ajax and he will soon undergo a medical test as a new Ajax player. I think his quality is still enough to play in Europe and maybe this is what he wants because not all European players feel happy playing in the Saudi league even though they can make a lot of money.

As stated by ajax yesterday if the club was almost complete the deal with jordan henderson. One european player is now going back to the european competition which is not good for SPL. This is also giving impact to the reputation of SPL.
It seems like that SPL needs to work even harder to get european player to play there. It's caused by the left of henderson from ettifaq can also be used as a testimony for other players to avoid SPL. I don't even like this.
Henderson knows so well how good or bad the competition in the SPL. His movement to the ajax will be used by haters of SPL to blame it.

This is bad news for SPL caused by it must be losing one of good player that has come from liverpool. Im not feeling so good with this news. I was sure if hendo would be joining in the ajax but i didn't also see the effort from ettifaq to prevent him to leave from there.
Hendo is finally back to the european competition again. He will be feeling quite better to perform there rather than stay even longer in the SPL.

We are still waiting for the further development from firmino and benzema. Hendo's case is clear after an announcement about his transfer.

[QueenVera]

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 are a good side. Their manager Mourinho has some kind of special ability to raise up a team into a pretty much successful squad. Even with the loopholes they're faced with, he's still been able to help the team stand out in some games. Injury has definitely been a number one deprivation of a team's performance but the manager has been able to make do with the players and squad he's got available and even though not perfect as expected, they're not relenting in their efforts.
 
 The European competition would definitely favour them, they only need to strive to win a ticket. Good thing also that their striker is at his peak performance and he's always capable of delivering the team to victory in dire moments. I'd admit that the team and manager are very much compatible maybe it's the resonance that's natural or maybe Mourinho's great coaching ability at work but at the moment, the situation in the team is in safe hands and patiently and gently, they'd stride to the spots they want to be even though they've got at hand tough team challenges to conquer.

[Synchronice]

Exactly, PSG has crucial players, but the biggest issue is the coach, and I am confident Mbappe will not win the Champions League if he does not change clubs, because they have had the opportunity to win the last two years with the Goat Messi and have refused to upset Real Madrid.

While Messi is the GOAT, he can't bring the tremble alone to the team. I think they signed Messi for marketing purposes and not to benefit the team because their playstyle was different and didn't change even after the Messi's transfer. Messi has only played in FC Barcelona and Argentina. In both teams, Messi has been the main player and the whole team was built around him. When Messi moved in PSG, the whole team was built around Mbappe, their strategy was to shoot the ball in front, Mbappe will run and score. Simultaneously, it's really true that Messi wasn't trying his best for PSG because he prioritized Argentina's national team to win trebles with them, including Copa America and World Cup. It was clear how powerful Messi was during Argentina's matches compared to PSG but I think Messi is not to be blamed here that much because the coach and midfield was the problem here, not Messi actually, he was still performing well but I think he was preserving himself from injuries and wasn't as aggressive/motivated as before.

[Spack17]

I have heard news such as PSG have made a new contract offer to Kylian Mbappe. It is said to be worth around 100 million euros a year.  

This is a really attracting sum of money for sure. But money isn't problem for other rich teams as well. So Real Madrid can easily offer the same conditions to Mbappe as well. Maybe they already have who knows.    But I expect Mbappe to make his decision at the end of the season. Staying at PSG is also an option maybe but I hope he doesn't prefer that option. I don't believe it is good for his future at all.  

[Sakanwa]

Between these two coaches,I would probably choose Pochetino because he can be better in the long run,but Morinho is a three season's coach,he can't keep a team competing for more than three seasons.If you look at Morinho's record,you will see that his past success with any team are always within a period of three seasons and not more than that.But former Totthenham manager Pochetino stayed with Totthenham for a long period of time,and kept them competing seriously,making Totthenham one of the best teams in the league for the period of years he stayed at the club.It would be better if they give Pochetino more time,than judge him now.
