⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Pesona1]

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

It is reported that Mourinho is interested in the Saudi Pro League, and in my opinion Mourinho chances of moving there are quite big. Chelsea, I doubt that club officials will fire Pochettino and reappoint Jose Mourinho for the third time as their head coach. It sounds reasonable, because Pochettino has not been able to do good and correct actions at Stamford Bridge, he has committed a lot of sins at the moment. Chelsea are still unable to compete for tickets to the Champions League next season, they are still slumped in 9th place in the standings. Against this background, there is the possibility of appointing Mourinho as the new successor, but so far there has been no official news about the man from Portugal.

In terms of experience and understanding of the club, Mourinho is certainly no stranger and I am sure he can turn things around for the better. However, the possibility seems very small, because Chelsea management still seems to have complete confidence in Pochettino. Mourinho is one of the best coaches at the moment, I don't consider him a failure with Roma. Apart from that, a manager like Mourinho certainly doesn't lack interest, I think several other European clubs are also interested in signing him.

Barcelona has taken an interest in Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips. There are many clubs that have already expressed interest in Kalvin Phillips, such as Juventus, West Ham, Crystal Palace, Newcastle United, Atlético Madrid, and now Barcelona. Barcelona has some finincal criticism, but by the way, Kalvin Phillips is one of the best younger midfielders, and their attacking sense is quite good. Despite Barcelona's weakness in the attack, no one has the ability to score when Striker gets stuck in the opposition defense. Whether it's Frenki De Jong or Pedri, both can't score like attacking midfielders. Despite both players having decent styles of play in terms of providing, I mean, playmaking, their attack sense is a little bit weak. While Kalvin Phillips is too good, he has the ability to make runs towards the box and also has the capability to score. So therefore, I believe that Kalvin Phillips will be good signing for Barcelona if they got it. Because Xavi needs such type of player who contribute to the club in an attacking sense.

Few peoples are feeling this is bad news for the Saudi League, but we have to understand that now things are taking changes and this is start of the new era for the Saudi League as now they can buy and sell players as Ajax signed Jordan Henderson we have few signings for the Saudi League which are also the biggest names in UEFA clubs, and they are coming for their contribution into this league which is going to be good for this league.

Even there is no doubt we have few problems for the European and South American players here but still things can take change and organizers are trying their best for having fair and better things but still conditions are not easy which is also problem but as they are investing huge amounts they will never stop this all and surely try their best for having improved things in this league specially quality of the clubs and league as well which is important for the future of this league.

In every transfer window we have too many rumours and reports about many few players with currently Mbappé is hot about his contract and future few days back I also read his mother which is also his manager announces if any club will offer around 100 Million Euro he will play for him, and today we have some news with now PSG is also offering him about contract so as things are going we can expect another extension for the Kylian Mbappé here at PSG.

Currently as things are going we need to understand Real Madrid is not interested in Kylian Mbappé, so things like this are circulating around about his future and most chances he will stay here with any acceptable offer can bring change but no other club can afford him with his required salary and other luxuries.

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.

On previous occasions, particularly in the last summer transfer window. Chelsea, or more precisely Todd Boehly, has missed out on a coach who has the potential to improve the performance of the Blues squad. The inclusion of Nagelsmann and Luis Enrique on Chelsea's radar, at least has the possibility and progress that leads to good development. but for some reason, these two coaches chose to cancel or withdraw from the interview that Chelsea was conducting. Chelsea management should not do something like that, if they really have confidence in the capacity of the coach they will appoint. Currently, Mourinho has reportedly been fired by AS Roma management. which means, he doesn't coach any team.

Talking about Mourinho and Chelsea, do you think you should consider this a setback? sorry, I have to say it. because, it seems like Mourinho's glorious era has ended with an outdated system in this era of modern football. I'm not saying Mourinho doesn't have potential, but in the midst of Chelsea's current condition plus the owner who is always involved in it. changing the trainer for now, doesn't seem to be the right answer. Moreover, the coach is an old coach who has managed Chelsea before. Likewise with Poche, he was appointed by Todd Boehly. regarding their performance, now regardless of the problems and complications they face. Todd Boehly is partly responsible for the current state of the Blues. Moreover, most of the players that Chelsea brought in were the decisions of the club management and the Chelsea owner themselves. There is no other choice, let Poche be creative with the rest of his abilities. Maybe, in the second half of this season he can take it in a better direction.

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)

It is difficult to predict Jose Mourinho's future because this controversial coach always provides unexpected surprises and even though the media tries to make news about the club he will work with next. England is a familiar place for The Special One and perhaps he has passed many stories there, so it is not surprising when he returns to train a club in the Premier League. But if you want something different, the Saudi Arabian League becomes a new story for him and football starts to develop there as usual.

Let's wait and see how the story goes and if he wants to return to coach another club, I would prefer him to choose the Saudi Arabian League as his next place. Even though this league is not that extraordinary, the future there will be much more tempting for Jose Mourinho.

When Messi came to Inter Miami their game changed, moreover they started winning, so Messi has an influence unequivocally. As for his game in PSG, the tactics were really not under Messi, he only had to assist Mbappe, and the fans didn't like him, so he didn't speak well of the club after he left.  I wonder how PSG will build their game after Mbappe leaves in the summer

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

I only found out today that Mourinho was sacked. In the news I read, he even left the training ground in tears. Indeed, Mourinho did not have many achievements with Roma, he only gave 1 UEFA Conference League trophy and managed to take Roma to the European Cup Final. There is news if Man United wants him, but he also does not have a big achievement with Man United. Maybe this time Mourinho is no longer a coach with the nickname The Specialist One but The Sacked One because he is fired more often than giving trophies to the club.

[Furious 7]

Other news that I saw from Fabrizio Romano is that Barcelona will not bring in a single player this January although this is not a surprise because we know their condition is still not possible to bring in new players but I think this is also a bold and risky decision because in the end with the situation that happened this indirectly Xavi will be the scapegoat when Barcelona cannot get a decent place in the competition they are currently playing.

There is really no other option for Barcelona at the moment because forcing to look for players will disturb their financial stability and not necessarily also by bringing players they can return to the position they really want.
At the moment they will still only continue to focus on making the situation from their performance better with makeshift players. Although it will still be very difficult but there will be nothing they can do for this.
The possibility that will be done actually for now Barcelona is to change the attack pattern in order to slightly close the gap because of their players who are indeed sober at this time.
Lewa this season is not going well and I think it would be better to use a scheme where 4-3-3 is emphasized rather than one striker. They cannot continue to force Lewa who is already struggling so therefore, it would be better to play 2 me where there are names Joao and Yamal who can still be used as options and in the midfield there is also Gundogan who can still organize attacks with Pedri and De Jong.

Actually for now I am quite sorry for Xavi because at the moment he is required to improve Barcelona's performance instantly but on the other hand he is faced with a Barcelona situation that continues to experience problems so that this actually becomes a situation that goes awry for Xavi in the end.
Even though if we look as a whole in terms of current performance Xavi is one of the young coaches who has potential but because of the unfavorable situation for him from Barcelona's current resources he is cornered by fans who think his performance cannot bring Barcelona in a more positive direction even though we know the initial problem started from their stagnant finances.

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.

Maybe that's understandable but when discussing Davies now indirectly it will definitely be connected to the current transfer in the end because we must be aware of being in the transfer thread with the discussion of player transfers coinciding with the currently open transfer window it is very related to each other: D But indeed for the Davies problem it will not happen because after all now Ancelotti already knows that the statement he gave earlier by not bringing the defender is definitely accounted for but it is possible that if it is for next season's transfer then it looks like this still applies to Davies because after all if his performance does not decline at Bayern then surely Madrid will continue to pursue this player because it is one of the characteristics of Madrid when wanting a player to be at the Bernabeu.

Actually Barcelona financial is not enough good for signing Kalvin Philip from Manchester City, have to spent around 30 million euro until 50 million euro for signing England holding midfielder. Currently the teams interested for signing Kalvin Philip not only Barcelona but also have Premier League teams with good financial and not get problem for transfer fees around 50 million euro to get Kalvin Philip's sign such as Newcastle United and West Ham United.

I don't think with seriously rumor Barcelona want to sign Kalvin Philip because they have many players in midfielder position, Frenkie De Jong, Gundogan, Pedri and Oriol Romeu seems enough midfielder having right now and Barcelona just need with new defender and striker right now after conceded many goals in last several matches before.

I only found out today that Mourinho was sacked. In the news I read, he even left the training ground in tears. Indeed, Mourinho did not have many achievements with Roma, he only gave 1 UEFA Conference League trophy and managed to take Roma to the European Cup Final.

Mourinho took Roma to consecutive European finals and won the club their first ever European title (The UEFA conference league), for a team like Roma, and with the budget and resources they have, i think that is success/achievement IMO. I know poor results this season is one of the major reasons why Mourinho was fired, but i think discipline is another one, his attitude in the dugout has left a lot to be desired and that's why he has picked up so many red cards, i am sure tha club have looked at all of this and said, you know what...it is time to cut ties with him. I wish Mou all the best for the future.

José Mourinho is an aggressive coach, we all know how recalcitrant he can be when it comes to instructions, he doesn't accept defeats so easily. José Mourinho demissed from the position of headcosch from AS Roma with immediate effect following their defeats againt AC Milan. It was a trembling defeats for Giallorossi but they're up and back to their kneels. José Mourinho did not nothing solidable to improve the performance of the club this season, AS Roma have been losing back to back without any significant changes in the team's performance.

Kalvin Philips is more of a defensive midfielder, I haven't seen a game where he was featured as the attacking midfielder. Not even for the English national team.
If he is down for the move, them I believe it'll be a perfect switch, Pep Guardiola would also want him to move because he still has a great love for Barcelona. I can recall him letting Ferran Torres leave for Barcelona also.

For Jordan Henderson, he's heavily linked with a return to the Dutch League. As Ajax are currently leading the hunt for the former Liverpool captain.

[Velvet78]

Mourinho was really successful with Roma when it comes to European tournaments such as the Conference League and Europa League. But he was just not able to do a good job in the Serie A since he took over. Of course having a limited budget to make transfers can also be shown as a reason for that. But it isn't the only reason for that as well. 

I think Roma's current squad are still capable of fighting for top 4 and even finishing in this area. But they have always struggled with consistency problems. This season has been even worse for Roma in the Serie A so far. Let's see what Daniele De Rossi will do.
