⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Jody.Drummer]

For Xavi Hernandez, I'd want to say he should have been supported this season but he wasn't due to Injuries and also financial challenges affecting them.
Some of them players Innit also are also not well piad by the club completely so I wonder how they want to be play with them hearts. Lack of support from the management and the Injured players absent affected Xavi Hernandez because he was same man who won the Spanish La Liga with Barcelona last season.

The most difficult position at the moment is probably experienced by Xavi. Last season Xavi brought Barcelona to La Liga champions in an extraordinary way. This was even done when the team was having financial problems.
Xavi returned the favor very well to Barcelona. however, the support from management was not that good and not what Xavi had hoped for. I don't think Barcelona will get a very good coach like Xavi with all the limitations that Barcelona has.
This season Xavi may realize it will be difficult to compete for the La Liga trophy. deciding to leave his position is also not bad in the eyes of fans. he has given his best for Barcelona.

What Xavi experienced at Barcelona was not as expected, when he was supposed to get full support, he didn't get it, on the contrary, he was constantly pressured to make Barcelona even better, the problem was when he had to achieve the targets set. by management at the same time he also didn't get something he needed, isn't management overreacting? In my opinion, management should be more introspective, because one of the things that caused Barcelona to experience something like this was themselves.

If Xavi leaves this club then I also have no guarantee that the new coach who comes will make them even better. And if the new coach who comes later doesn't get what he needs, maybe that coach won't be able to stay here for long, especially with the high targets they have set. Barcelona must solve their most basic problems first before they solve other problems, because if their main problem is resolved I am sure their other problems will also be resolved. And one of their main problems is the financial problem they are currently facing. Indeed, I understand that it will be a very difficult task to complete, but they have to find a way to solve their problem more quickly than it should.

I think he realises that he is unlikely to win any trophy at MU and will probably try to win a trophy at Bayern first before thinking about a return to the EPL. Yes, he probably likes that record and wants to update it, but if he doesn't win any serious trophies, how can he consider himself a really serious top level player? I think that's a rhetorical question for every player

Indeed. He will have no chance to win any trophy with Man United. Man United never improved their performance, they only become a middle class team in each season. If Harry Kane wants to win a trophy, it is better to stay with Bayern Munich. Harry Kane still has a chance to win a trophy in the next season. I'm not sure Leverkusen will be as strong as this season if Xabi Alonso leaves Leverkusen. The chance to win a trophy with Bayern Munich will be higher for the next season. So why Harry Kane needs to return to EPL? I think he never considers to return to EPL in the near future.

I agree, now it's time for Harry Kane to stay at Bayern Munich and win trophies just one bad season not mean he leaves and now try some other place Bayern Munich is one of the best club which have great potential to win trophies even their current season is not good, but things can take good change, and they could be at their best in coming season it is just matter of time and if he is considering Manchester United then surely it's going to be not wise decision because Manchester United is surely now not good club for the winning trophies they also need overhaul which bring things back to normal, and they are surely going to have not good time in near future as well for the winning of trophies with this performance and consistency which is bringing them to the sixth spot in Premier League and early exit from the Champions League.

What if in the next season there's a new underdog that will able to beat Bayern Munich? let's say Dortmund.

Definitely it's Harry Kane's curse, even though the real problem is the manager, but people will blame Kane because he's not able to win any trophy when he was in Tottenham. Still it's unbelievable to see Bayern Munich not become a champion in the domestic league.

[Velvet78]

The summer window may not open for several months, but clubs across world football are already making arrangements, including Manchester United, who are still interested in signing Harry Kane and Frenkie de Jong despite the fact both players appear likely to remain at their current clubs.

Seems like Manchester United is interested in Harry Kane. Which in my opinion really seems to be unrealistic.

Why?

Because even if Bayern Munich cannot win the Bundesliga title, which is definitely very much possible, to be honest, I still think he is not leaving just after one season. If anything is going to change in Bayern Munich it is going to be the coach.

At the same time, Harry Kane is not going to Manchester United for sure. You know his main target was to win a trophy. If he goes to Manchester United, that chance is not there anymore, right? At least with Bayern Munich, he has a chance.

This is really ridiculous for me honestly. There is no way Bayern Munich are letting Kane go or Kane deciding to leave for Manchester United so quickly.  

Even if Bayern Munich fail in winning the Bundesliga title there is no problem for Kane. He hasn't gone there to play for only one season. He is there to finally win titles. He is having an unlucky season in the Bundesliga though despite his big effort. But if it doesn't happen this season it would probably happen in the next one. Bayern Munich is a way better place for Kane in comparison to Manchester United.

[coinlocket$]

DeZerbi is the main target of Liverlpool as coach after Klopp.

Klopp also will skip 1 year, he needs to rest.

Bayern Munich is a way better place for Kane in comparison to Manchester United.

The press loves to spread rumors, I see that they write not only about Manchester United, there are also rumors that if Bayern fails to win a single trophy this season, then Kane may move to Chelsea. Kane came into the team at a difficult time, that's true, but to win trophies you have to work hard, it's not that easy, and if he really wants it, he will stay in the team and strive for it. You can always leave, but those who stay and continue to play will be appreciated. Remember what a Legend Lewandowski was in Bayern, now everything has changed for him, in Barça he is an ordinary forward...

[TastyChillySauce00]

DeZerbi is the main target of Liverlpool as coach after Klopp.

Klopp also will skip 1 year, he needs to rest.

It's still a rumor, right? In my opinion, de zerbi was not fit to the club. I would prefer for the club to get xabi alonso rather than de zerbi. Things will not be going so well when klopp leave from the club. Im thinking if this is another disaster for liverpool.
It's fuckin weird if the management considers de zerbi instead of xabi alonso. The club has not yet approached xabi alonso and i believe liverpool will try to approach him.

Zerbi is very bad on brighton. The club is not having good performance. This makes club need to think even harder about how to get him.

I strongly disagree if liverpool will get zerbi as a new tactical creator. Brighjton was still getting stuck under him and im not willing to see liverpool to stuck in the same place too.

[FanEagle]

What would be amazing could be Bayern getting Mbappe. Not that it would be easy, they have 25 million euro as the highest player on their club, Mabppe makes more than 25, he makes around 60, which means that they can't afford him.

However, they paid 100+ million for Kane, and pay him 25 a year too, so by that logic that could be 50 million a year for 4 years, then they can see what the yare doing or just sell him or let him go but that could be 4 years of Mbappe easily, if you think he is better than Kane (he is) then maybe even one more year and get him for 5 years, or pay him more for 4 years. I think with them trying to redo the team a bit, it would not be all that much of a bad idea to get Mbappe to be in that team.

[makishart]

This is bad news for liverpool. Goal has reported that if xabi was not interesting to be a new head coach for the club. Xabi has been successfully developing leverkusen to reach its performance but it seems like that he is leaning to join in the bayern munich instead of liverpool. This is very good news for bayern's officials caused by they have been targeting him. This is official report regarding this.

Xabi Alonso is reportedly leaning towards Bayern Munich and could snub Liverpool as the coveted Bayer Leverkusen coach prepares to decide on future.

https://www.goal.com/en/lists/liverpool-xabi-alonso-bayern-munich-bayer-leverkusen/blt28dcd51627187f39

As far as i know liverpool still confuse to pick which coach that has good potential to coach liverpool but since the club has lost interest from xabi then it must be searching for an alternative solution for him.
There have been some clubs were hunting the new coach, these clubs are bayern munich and napoli. As far as i know napoli rejected by conte a few times.

There will be so many surprise to happen in the futuire. Im feeling so damn good after bayern munich has sacked tuchel leave from the club, He got only 1 bundesliga trophy caused by luck,.
He will get nothing if dortmund was not so stupid doing some critical mistakes that costed the club bundesliga trophy.

Currently, it seems difficult to find a coach who has a history of being able to give champions title to the clubs he coaches. Zidane, Conte and Mourinho are famous names who still don't have a club, but Liverpool seems not interested to sign either of them. Even though De Zerbi does not have a good history, there are several rumors linked with him. Some media reported if De Zerbi is being target from Barcelona and AC Milan.

[UchihaSarada]

This is very good news for bayern's officials caused by they have been targeting him. This is official report regarding this.

It is easy to understand this because Xabi is very suitable for German football. He is being confident with achieved success with Leverkusen so choosing another German club is also reasonable. Bayern is also Xabi's old team, maybe the emotional attachment to Liverpool is not as good, but perhaps coming to Liverpool and getting acquainted with a new, competitive football tournament like the Premier League at this time is too early for Xabi. Bayern is also a big team, and it would certainly be easier for Xabi to win bigger titles if he went to Bayern.

This is really ridiculous for me honestly. There is no way Bayern Munich are letting Kane go or Kane deciding to leave for Manchester United so quickly. 

Even if Bayern Munich fail in winning the Bundesliga title there is no problem for Kane. He hasn't gone there to play for only one season. He is there to finally win titles.

Bayern Munich is a way better place for Kane in comparison to Manchester United.

It can be said that Kane was in extremely brilliant form when he first arrived at Bayern, his ability to score goals is undeniable. But perhaps the internal turmoil related to coach Tuchel has dragged down Bayern as a whole. If Tuchel leaves, things may change and Kane is still Bayern's main goalscorer, so there is no reason to move to Mu when German football seems to suit his playing style very well.

yep, I fully support your opinion, this is very unreasonable Kane left Bayern Munich, which has redeemed him and provides a very large salary and on the one hand, it is too early to speculate about Bayern Munich failure because the end of the season could provide a surprise like last season.
logically it will not be possible for Kane to return to the EPL again after he is more comfortable in Munich and is currently making a very good contribution and if he decides to go to Man United it would be the same as betraying his club and I am more confident that Kane knows the situation better Man United at the moment so he doesn't want to get into any more complicated problems there and this will just be a rumor.

I have the idea that Kane will stay until his contract expires and will go to an SPL team after entering old age because after he gets old he will definitely have the same fate as Ronaldo who will not want to sign him at a high price and only the saudi arabian team will pay him a salary great for players who are older but still have talent left.
Kane has been in the EPL for too long and during his time there he never won any prestigious titles and with Bayern Munich, Kane currently has the opportunity to help get the bundesliga title and dominate again in the future.

Such a transfer would be perfect. I agree with you on that. But any team that signs Mbappe would be perfect. I think we have a problem like this. Does Mbappe want to transfer to every team?

Bayern Munich are not a much better team than Paris Saint-Germain. Of course, they can be a little bit better, but I don't know if it's worth transferring from Paris Saint-Germain to Bayern Munich. Both teams are equal in their class. But teams like Real Madrid and Manchester City are on another level. That's why Mbappe pushed all the conditions to transfer to Real Madrid.

Man United would be better off looking for another option like De Jong because the strike already has Hojlund, who is enjoying his current position with the productivity of scoring goals. Let Bayern Munich  finalize a new coach the officials there are always impatient and want to immediately fire Tuchel because they don't think they will make any changes even though they have brought in  a striker like Kane. and one more thing Harry Kane must extend his title drought.
Barcelona is in need  of an injection of  funds so selling De Jong would be better for the club future.

It seems that it is now clear why such bad results for Bayern are connected, it became known that Tuchel quarreled with almost all the players in the team, only some players still support him. Kimmich is even thinking about a transfer in the offseason because of this.

It is clear that in such a situation, these seemingly sensational defeats of Bayern in this case take on a completely logical meaning, the players simply want to get rid of Tuchel, because they consider him to be the culprit of all the problems in the team. To be honest, his decisions weren't always clear. There is no doubt that Tuchel will leave Bayern, the only question is when he will do it in the off-season, or in the near future.

[Litzki1990]

Well, I think we have a consensus then that Mbappé will play for Real Madrid, right!?

The question now is: What will your shirt number be?

Since the beginning of the season, Vini Jr. started wearing the emblematic number 7 shirt at Real Madrid and I believe that perhaps he wants that same number that he already wore at PSG, what do you think?

But, in order not to create a fight with Vini, Mbappé could also choose number 9 or 10.... The number 7 has great weight as it was worn by Raúl and Cristiano Ronaldo while the number 9 shirt has been free since Benzema's departure. However, Endrick also arrives at Real Madrid in the middle of 2024 and can claim the number. Number 10, currently used by Modric, could be free from the end of the season.

My "bet" is still number 7.

Easy 9 or 10. Modric is a pensioner, and it’s too early for Endrik to choose a number. As for Mbappe, I think he doesn’t care about the number since his ambitions extend much further. There is no problem for him to play under a different number for several years (or even many years), if I remember correctly Ronaldo also did not immediately put on the Real Madrid jersey with number 7.
It would be interesting to discuss what number someone would have if Haaland ended up in Real Madrid, but unfortunately this option is excluded.

Cristiano Ronaldo wearing the number 7 jersey has performed brilliantly for Real Madrid. We thought maybe the number 7 jersey could be given to Mbappe again but at the beginning of the new season we saw that the number 7 jersey was given to Vini.JR but now there is no chance of Mbappe getting the number 7 jersey. Since the number 10 jersey is going to be empty, there should be no doubt that Mbappe will wear the number 10 jersey and enter the field. I would be most happy if Mbappe wears the number 10 jersey for Real Madrid, although the person who has previously represented Real Madrid in the number 10 jersey has played in the midfield, but Mbappe will play the role of a finisher in the number 10 jersey.

[KTChampions]

I would clarify that Nagelsmann did not leave at the end of the season, but at the very height of it, and by the way, technically at that moment Bayern continued to claim the most important titles - the Bundesliga and the Champions League.
A similar thing can (and should) happen to Tuchel. Everything is bad in Bavaria and something needs to be changed before it’s too late. I don't understand why wait until summer.
As for his plans, they say that he will return to England - either to Liverpool, or to United, or to the England national team.

~You shouldn't have to wait until the summer to replace a new coach, but maybe Bayern Munich wants to solve this problem with Thomas Tuchel. At least Thomas Tuchel also has responsibility for the remainder of the season as a form of apology for giving bad results to the team from the German capital. Considering the current and very complicated situation, I predict that Thomas Tuchel will go to Liverpool and Xabi Alonso will go to Bayern Munich next season. It was not as previously expected that Xabi Alonso was so strongly nominated as a replacement for Jurgen Kloop.

I would have no doubt that "we can wait until the summer" as in the case of Xavi for a change of coach, but Tuchel reportedly has conflicts with the players and a whole group of six players want him to be sacked (I don't think they want to wait haha). If the contradictions have reached such a scale, then this is unlikely to lead to a healthy environment in the club, rather the opposite, and this is an additional factor that worsens the results. Now Bayern have at least the Champions League where they have chances “like everyone else,” but it seems to me that if they leave Tuchel until the summer, then these chances will be worse.

You have my support. I think Kane's rumor of joining Manchester United or Chelsea is media hype. Kane joined Bayern to win, not simply play. Lets face it; one season, especially one hampered by terrible luck or a learning curve, isnt enough to measure his influence or decision. From my experience, Bayern legends dont happen suddenly. Lewandowski took years to become a club legend. I think Kane is playing the long game, like past legends.

Kane leaving due to a trophyless season is unlikely. Bayern's heritage and Kane's ambition require persistence. Yes, they're struggling, but thats football. Do not depart at the first sight of problems. Overcoming these obstacles cements a player's legacy. I think Kane is in the proper spot to make that happen, and the rumors sound more like rivals' wishful thinking than fact.

I don't think Harry Kane will return to Chelsea. There is no reason for him to return to Chelsea. He embarked on a new adventure with Bayern and I think we will watch him in the Bayern Munich jersey for a few more years. It is not right to compare Harry Kane to Lewandowski, they are strikers of different styles, but I think Harry Kane can make his name known as one of Bayern's best strikers in a few years.

[fuguebtc]

Mbappe is the highest-paid footballer in the history of European soccer.

According to The Athletic, his current salary costs PSG €200 million per year.

Mbappe will take a significant pay-cut to move to Madrid but he is still expected to become the highest-earning player at the club.

Link- https://www.si.com/fannation/soccer/futbol/transfers/

Guys, I'm hearing that Mbappe is going to get €15 million per year for joining Real Madrid. Is this true?

I definitely think it is not that much, to be honest.
Especially considering the fact that the amount of money that the top level footballers are getting paid right now.

Well, I guess I am also keeping the fact of the Saudi Pro League in mind. But that is something I believe I should forget. Because they are just buying players to make the league popular. That is not the case for Real Madrid, right?
