⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[entertheabyss]

Very surprising news for Liverpool fans. jurgen klop and some coaching staff will resign at the end of the season. must start looking for a quality replacement coach if you don't want to immediately become a mid-table mediocre team.
Maybe Xabi Alonso is the best candidate to replace Jurgen Klop.

Losing key coaches will push forward for Liverpool to decline in performance. Liverpool might not suffer the same fate as other clubs that have lost significant coach's because they're top team and the players are outstanding. Coaching an elite team become more challenging than the usual approach for an average team. Xabi Alonso is the best replacement for Jurgen Klopp who will exits the club but it's weigh out of line because Xabi Alonso doesn't pick interest to leave Bayer Leverkusen, atleast not yet because there are more competing strength to to oppose them.

It would be undermining his credibility if he uses these words for an emotional valediction and then sits on the Bayern bench a few months later. I don't think he would do that as he values his own reputation.

If I were to break down on reasons that he leave, could be because this season could be the last season for Liverpool to achieve a good chance to win the league. Pretty darn sure Salah and Van Djik could be leaving next season due to their age so obviously Saudi league could be offering them alot to move, not to mention some other players as well. So instead of wasting his time rebuilding the entire team again, this is a good season for him to step down from Liverpool

As for moving to another team, there is a slim chance he could do that if he got a great offer

I have a fundamentally different opinion on that. It is actually quite the opposite. Liverpool can win several titles this season, yes. But they will for sure play in the Champions League next season. They can get a lot of money for Salah and I thought that there is still a slight possibility that they can sign a top striker and there was a rumor about some talks between Liverpool and Mbappe, which I think is not impossible and Liverpool would perhaps enough money if they sell Salah.

I think there must be some deeper reason behind this that so far nobody knows except for the people who are closest to all of this.

But in this case it comes back to Osimhen in the end because he has to decide correctly about the future he has to think about because one wrong decision could ruin his career.
Currently seeing from what is happening for rumors we only see Chelsea who are ready with Osimhen's offer but it does not rule out the possibility that for the summer transfer there will be additional clubs who want to propose Osimhen from Napoli.

But if it is only Chelsea and Osimhen goes to the EPL honestly it makes me doubt what he will do later in the EPL.
Not to make it seem as if Serie A is low but in the last few seasons we can see that Serie A players who come to the EPL most of them actually have to end up failing.
Pogba, Lukaku and the latest of course Onana who is quite worth saying failed for now so I doubt if Osimhen set a choice for Chelsea later.

Regardless of the loopholes Osimhen faced for a few weeks with Napoli, he still found so much belief in them and he'sore or less the fans favorite too. So the news of his contract extension was definitely soothing to the team and fans too. Now it's certain that they'd keep seeing and benefiting from his unique style of football. He's being a key man at the Italian side and it was although very much unlikely for them to let him slip off their arm, he's just got more impacts to make.

 Napoli themselves have seen the quality of player he is and they really don't want to let him go. They've just offered him an increased contract with them for him to have a reconsideration on the team. It's his decision no doubt, but maybe he's just got to get experiences in a different club environment. Even though, he still has an achievement to deliver onto the team too. Maybe or maybe not he'd consider their offer.

Very surprising news for Liverpool fans. jurgen klop and some coaching staff will resign at the end of the season. must start looking for a quality replacement coach if you don't want to immediately become a mid-table mediocre team.
Maybe Xabi Alonso is the best candidate to replace Jurgen Klop.

I also agree that Xabi Alonso would be a very good replacement for Jurgen Klop, Xabi Alonso being an ex player of the club couple with his brilliant and impressive performance at Bayern Leverkusen, Steven Gerrard would have been another option unfortunately his short stint in Aston Villa was miserable and was consequently sacked, Xabi Alonso had been doing tremendous job at Bayern Leverkusen the  club presently top Bundesliga table having displaced a once dominating club Bayern Munich from the top to the second position, a return to Liverpool as their would be a welcome development though EPL is more competitive than Bundesliga, however if given the job he would definitely continue where Jurgen Klopp stop by

Liverpool management might consider this former player as the right successor to replace the role left by Klopp. I hope that can happen, but before anything becomes real, what is certain is that Liverpool will see what Xabi has brought this season to Leverkusen. on paper, with the record they have recorded so far, Leverkusen has a great chance of winning the trophy, the DFB Pokal seems to be the one they have the most potential to achieve.

Xabi was previously rumored to be approach to Madrid, but all these rumors have ended after Ancelotti extended his contract there. I think Xabi emotional closeness to Liverpool is one of the reasons why Xabi will be ready moves to Anfield, but we know that his contract with Leverkusen will only end in june 2026.

On other hand, Liverpool certainly have several other names on their list, and what is certain is that many european clubs will be interested in recruiting Xabi if he is successful with Leverkusen this season. if The Reds really make an offer to Xabi, then I don't think Xabi will refuse it, Unless at the same time Madrid makes the same effort.

[red4slash]

Yes, I also think Liverpool is definitely going to struggle to replace him. And I don't know which coach Liverpool is actually going to bring in instead of him. Because at the moment I really don't see any good replacement for him. I mean there are obviously good replacements, but they are not available at this moment. Maybe if Carlo Ancelotti is available, they can look at him. But you know the status of him is unsure. He is with Real Madrid and I actually do not know how long he's going to be with Real Madrid to be honest.

Maybe he will end up extending his contract again who knows?

Currently Don Carlo is not an option because his contract in Madrid has been extended so it will be closed and I'm sure the situation will not be too comfortable if Ancelloti is trained because after all, seeing Liverpool's scheme when managed by Klopp and Ancelotti's scheme is very different so Liverpool will definitely look for a replacement who is almost the same type as Klopp.
To be honest I still have some names in my mind like Nagelsmann and even Xabi but this is also just a speculation because in the end we can only see things like this next season when Klopp really leaves and Liverpool starts looking for a new coach but it is likely that these 2 names are options.

[Oluwa-btc]

Now that I'm thinking about it you may be right.

He will probably ends in Germany to Bayern Munchen

Nah! Bayern Munich are considering snatching Xabi Alonso at the end of the season and I think this would be a better option for them than Jurgen Klopp.
Who's already had a great time together with Borrussia Dortmund and won some trophies. He got to the finals in the Champions League against Bayern Munich but couldn't win, I see how he got the experience to win for Liverpool. He was once a loser but became a winner with the reds.

Well, news saying this is a good chance for him to grace the opportunity to work as the manager that'll lead the German National Team to the next World Cup. Lets see if he'll consider that!!

I think Xabi Alonso will be quite appropriate to be Kloop replacement next season, because Xabi Alonso has played for Liverpool so he is no stranger to the Liverpool team. Jurgen Kloop surprisingly resigned at the end of this season even though I really hope Kloop can stay with Liverpool for a long time because his coaching style is capable of producing quite impressive games. Yes, Kloop make a final decision that he will leave liverpool and for now Liverpool management must look for a suitable coach to replace Kloop.

Nagelsmann doesn't have a job yet after he was fired by Bayern Munich, so two coaches between Xabi alonso and Negelsmann would be quite good choices if liverpool management was interested in showing them as Kloop successors. This season Liverpool have several opportunities to get trophy and I hope Kloop can bring liverpool to win trophies this season so that his farewell to Liverpool ends with a trophy.

You are not quite up to date thinking that Nagelsmann has no job yet He is the coach of the German team and he will stay with them as they have the European Championship in Germany. I would never expect him to quit his job when he can train the team in his home country for the tournament. The most likely option for Liverpool would be Xabi Alonso although I don't know how expensive that would be for Liverpool as I think Xabi Alonso has a long term contract with Bayer Leverkusen and they would charge Liverpool quite a lot to let Alonso go. This would only be possible if Leverkusen let's him go as a nice gesture because of his great achievements.

As for moving to another team, there is a slim chance he could do that if he got a great offer

He has announced at a time in the season where it can Have an effect on the team in two ways which is one motivate the players to want to get a result as a gift to the coach for his last season in the club or maybe discourage the players that he won't be with them next season. One sure thing for Liverpool is that any coach that takes over the job that klopp leaves will have a very high standard to meet up to. Is it possible for the just sacked Mourinho to be the replacement?

Suddenly too many rumors, predictions and analysis but for the real time update we have to wait about this all because in many cases nothing is predictable anything can happen Xabi Alonso is going to stay at the Bayer Leverkusen for one more season and with his words most chances he will keep away himself from soccer for some time then we can expect he can join Germany national team which is also the best option for him in coming years because now we have two years in next world cup, and he can take charge before one year which will also good for him and his team for having some good performance in this coming world cup.

I'm sure Liverpool fans are very sad, but there may be more news to come after this sad news. Mohamed Salah has been receiving offers from Arab teams for a long time. Maybe after Klopp's plans for the end of the season he might lose his loyalty to Liverpool and, like Klopp, he might say he wants to leave the club. Some events cause chain reactions. I think there will be players who will reconsider their decisions after Klopp's announcement.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Carlo Ancelotti doesn’t seem to be going there, I thought he will be more interested in coaching a country team than a football club when he finally leaves Real Madrid. Right now, we haven’t heard anything of him leaving the club by end of the season. Liverpool have the grace from now till next season to look for a replacement for Jurgen Klopp who has done tremendously well for the club since joining them nine years ago.

If it was for Liverpool choice, they will still want him to stay but he said it was his decision and it was the best for him to do at the moment now. I really wish him all the best in his future career after leaving Liverpool, indeed, he didn’t allow them to walk alone through the years he spent there. Since joining them, he has won six trophies, including premier league, champions league, FIFA club World Cup etc. Even Liverpool management were happy throughout his stay in the club and they’ll wish him well ahead for all he has brought to the club all the years.

Well, when things are like that in football, I believe that Ancelotti will not leave Madrid, he will stay, the only thing in football that could have left is for the BRAZIL national team, which is very bad, they really have to change teams, because the one who has such a shame said by the Brazilians themselves in Brazil, then ANCELOTTI was the most optioned to go there, of course now the plans have changed and this makes things look better, but personally things are very different now, I think that things are always about being done better for any team in a country and these come out, so I would say that things can be very affected for them to be given as they are, for me REAL Madrid is the team that has the most future for now, and with respect to Klopp things are different, I couldn't say that things with this team can manifest themselves in that way.

Now when we see that what would be the reasons why Klopp is leaving ? I don't know, he's a great coach, for me that's what defines a team like Liverpool, so when I'm Going to make any move on big teams like Liverpool, I don't know who could Replace him, this is what I would do. Once again, personally, I have always said that when we are making any type of Changes , well When we are seeing who could be the substitute, I would like Zidane to force himself, because he is a very good Coach , I have always said that when he is in a team, things must be Decisive , because Now things with this team are more influenced to do something big, we don't know if players like Luis Diaz or someone like them are going to fear that they will be removed from the Team , but it is not a valid option, I have always said that when they are doing something like this , these players must express themselves in some way.

Zidane isn't even an option; he's been on vacation since leaving the Real Madrid position, and I don't think he loved it because I don't see why he wouldn't take any job since leaving Madrid; he's had multiple offers but turned them down, indicating that he doesn't want to go back into management. Personal Xabi appears to be the closest thing to Klopp; he's doing an excellent job at Bayer, plays very dynamic offensive football, and has EPL experience, so he understands how the game is played here.

If they need experience, Antonio Conte and Mourinho are still available.

[ingiltere]

Beşiktaş has many names in mind for a stopper but still no deal has been made. Lascelles has been mentioned for a long time, almost since last year, but there is still no news. There is a serious interest in Domingos Duarte from Getafe. Beşiktaş want to loan him this year with an option to buy him next year so they can pay later. And now there is news of Luan from Palmeiras. But I'm against it, the player is 30 years old and has never left Brazil. This transfer would be a big gamble.

Zinedine Zidane is a great manager that's very capable of managing the Liverpool team when Jurgen Klopp leaves the English Premier League giants at the end of the season but I don't think he's the best man for the job because he knows little about English football as he never played in the English Premier League as a player and more precisely, he's has no knowledge about the philosophy of the club.
Xabi Alonso have played for Liverpool before and was one the key players that helped the club come from a first half 3:0 to win and lift the UEFA Champions League trophy at Istanbul in 2006. He understands how passionate the Liverpool fans are and can be so I expect Liverpool management to go for his services instead of another manager.

If Salah have decided to leave Liverpool I don't think anything will be wrong with that besides,  as a 31 year old player he should be mature enough to make decisions he feel favour is career the more. I don't see anything sad about it and as a matter of time, Salah will surely leave Liverpool, so what expected the club should have done ever since is to get a younger player and attach them to him. A young and promising player.

As for thr the issue of his injury, I think he reportedly announced to have return back to AXA Training Centre to continue with his games in Liverpool, this has caused little misunderstanding between the two teams such as the National team and his club,Liverpool. But the recent response he game was that he will still return back to the national team as soon as it is possible for him. What one cannot ascertain now is whether it will be late for him back

[Gormicsta]

Very quiet January transfer window in the PL. I haven’t paid much attention to other leagues this January but in the PL especially, it’s been one of the quietest transfer windows I can remember.

I guess we’ll see if that continues for the remainder of the month, not long to go now until the window slams shut.

I completely concur that the Premier League's January transfer window has been quite boring. This may indicate that teams are being more frugal with their spending because of the state of the global economy, or it could mean that there aren't as many players available who could have a big influence. But in comparison to other years, it's been a bit of a yawn fest. I believe that it will pick up in the last few days of the timeframe, however I could be mistaken at some point.

 Well, not only am I curious to see whether any major moves will occur before the window slams shut (as you say), but I think everyone is eager to find out as well.

Another possibility is to have both Guardiola and Klopp without any team the next year.

Also Guardiola said that his story will City will end soon, not so long time ago.

Also Guardiola said that his story will City will end soon, not so long time ago.

This would be tough for the whole football community... This is seriously an era coming to an end then. Ancelotti wants to stop in 2026, Mourinho got sacked now and it is not yet known whether he will return as a club coach. Then Klopp will give himself at least a break at the end of this season and in case of Guardiola I agree that it would also be possible for him to terminate his contract early. I think he signed his contract until 2025 and I think he will fulfill it, but still that's a lot of the best coaches of all time about to give their club careers a break or finish them within the next 2.5 years.
