⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Raflesia]

If I am Lukaku, I will move to Saudi and forget about playing in England or Italy since there is no good deal done for him next season. Lukaku needs a place to call him and not moving from one  club to another on loan. SPL will be beneficial for him with the huge pay and he will retire successful.

Due to Lukaku current age, I don't think that there is much for him to achieve again in big leagues but having a good club that respects your presence and pays well is a good retirement plan. However, it is not all players that will love to move down to SPL, so the choice is left for him to make.

He is still reluctant to do that because if he really intends to join the SPL from last season he can also do it because if I remember correctly before deciding to go to Roma on loan, Lukaku was previously tempted with very large money from the SPL club but Lukaku insisted not to do that.

Now Conte wants to try a reunion with Lukaku at Napoli. This is still quite doable, it's just that the obstacles that occur at this time are always based on the clause from Lukaku which is considered too expensive.
In addition, the rumors now actually Lukaku also expects to return to domestic competition in his current country because it is rumored that Lukaku wants to go to Anderlecht even though this is still a pretty hot rumor for Lukaku.

Another thing I'm curious about recently is what kind of a squad Liverpool will have next season. Because there are really important players whose futures are ambiguous. Such as Salah and Diaz in the first place.

Klopp has also left of course and Arne Slot has been appointed as the new manager. This is another thing that makes me wondering. Arne Slot doesn't have a career with a team as big as Liverpool yet. Therefore it is difficult to predict what will happen. When it comes to Salah, he might also leave and sign for a Saudi team this summer. He has still been making a big impact. And Diaz is also a really valuable player on the wing. If both leave then Liverpool will need to work really hard on transfers this summer.  

Well we all know what the influence of a new coach can cause and it can be either good or bad and we have seen that with the results of many other clubs like Manchester united for example, since the leave of sir Alex the club has suffered a great dept of playing quality and strength and this is because the space and technical analysis of the previous coach can't be meant and I feel that's the same thing that's gonna happen with Liverpool because kloop has really stamp a good discipline in this club.

And PSG are not only looking for strikers, they are apparently rebuilding the squad a bit, because they are looking for players for different positions, even goalkeepers according to rumours. I hope they finally change their tactics and gradually give up the idea of spending a lot of money for simple players who are obviously not worth that much.

They brought Neymar, Messi and Mbappe together and now, with Mbappe leaving for Real Madrid, there are no players left at this level in the club. They brought these three legends together, but they did not achieve what they wanted, and the squad was based on them. Now it is time to rebuild the team again.

PSG has many names to be transferred on their agenda, they are focusing on strikers. Midfielders and wingers are also needed. It is obvious that they will make many changes in the current squad, let's see what kind of players they will add to the team.

PSG once had a dream squad, but failed to achieve their goal of winning the Champions League trophy. Mbappe departure to Real Madrid marks the end of the most luxurious squad that PSG has ever built. In my opinion, now they have to change their transfer style which likes to bring in star players. If Luis Enrique is given full trust to organize the PSG squad according to his wishes, there is a chance for PSG to win the Champions League trophy in the coming seasons.

Losing Mbappe is a big loss, both financially and in terms of strength. PSG must let it go and focus on building a more collective squad, without relying and depending too much on just one star player. It's clear it won't be easy to find a replacement close to Mbappe level, Osimhen and Rahsford might be the right options if PSG still want instant impact. In fact, PSG can start orbiting more academy players, to create their own golden generation, usually they love the club more than players who were recruited from other teams who are paid high salaries.

Before the season was coming to a close there was this rumor of Xabi Alonso going to be the head coach of Liverpool because Klopp was leaving the Reds. The Bayer Leverkusen manager came to the Bundesliga and turned the table around by stealing the title from the unstoppable that got stopped this season, talking about Bayern Munich. Alonso made the Leverkusen side to be invincible (if I should call them that), no team in the Bundesliga beat them in any domestic competition till the season came to a close and every football love would want to give manager of he season to Xabi Alonso with his success. Here comes the big question, how do you see him as the manager of Liverpool that's if he was appointed and not Arne Slo, would Alonso repeat same thing he did at Leverkusen to Liverpool if he has accepted the job?

He was rumoured to be joining Bayern Munich and Real Madrid. Talks and rumours about joining Real Madrid calmed immediately they gave Carlo Ancellotti a contract extension as they also calmed the pressure of Carlo Ancellotti joining the Brazilian National Football Federation.

We also made predictions of hm joining Bayern Munich and how he will achieve back to back success for the club but joining Bayern Munich felt like treachery to the former Liverpool, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich midfielder. Anyways, I understand his decisions to stay further with Bayern Leverkusen for next season, knowing quite well that in the future he'll be a coach for either of Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.

Joining Liverpool wouldn't be something I would love, I would love him to win and decorate his profile with enough trophies before deciding to come to the Premier League, so this media can respect him.
He will be a great coach for Liverpool, but he would need players, who he can work with to project his tactics and strategies.

Joining Madrid? That's not going to happen even when they haven't given Ancelotti a new contract, they know how other clubs would come knocking to get Ancelotti, Madrid only had to delay maybe because they wanted to see how far he'd go in the champions league, as for Xabi Alonso going to Madrid I feel it was a rumor that wasn't strong to take effect even Bayern Munich rumor.
Every coach won't want to join Bayern Munich after doing well with Leverkusen so I think choosing Leverkusen over Bayern was the best decision as a coach he has made. I think Alonso has already made a statement in the Bundesliga and he doesn't need much per say and going to Liverpool after this just concluded season won't really get him where he is with the Leverkusen team, EPL will humble him at first season but I know one thing for sure that he (Xabi Alonso) won't finish outside the top 4.

And Diaz is also a really valuable player on the wing. If both leave then Liverpool will need to work really hard on transfers this summer.  

It’s certainly a trying period for Liverpool but it’s better they do the necessary transition at this stage. First of all the expectations on the coach should be reduce to help him gain confidence and build a team. The rumored departures are to be think carefully. Salah to me is a pivot player and the leader in that attacking line. But ever since last season his form or goal scoring coefficient has reduced and that is really something of a worry, my take though is the sale of him. Liverpool selling him  definitely will affect them for like a season but at a period of transition like this they should make all decisions now. As for Diaz, I feel he shouldn’t be sold yet, he had few years again to give and with the injury woes to Diogo iota and also the difficult of Nunez to convert chances; he will be a good fit to team.

Psg has quite healthy finances, I think they will continue their tradition of building a squad by buying quality players. In this season transfer market alone, several names of top players from various leagues have been linked with PSG, such as Osimhen and Julian Alvarez. Losing Mbappe is of course detrimental to PSG because he is an influential player in the team. But it is time for PSG to not only depend on one player but they must be united to produce a more impressive game and be able to achieve their target of becoming champions in the Champions League.

Well, I agree that if PSG changed their performance in the transfer market where they only focused on talented players, not famous players, of course the process would be more efficient to build the squad slowly in order to achieve success. Losing Mbappe will certainly have an impact on their style of play, but Luis Enrique must quickly resolve this before next season starts again.

Julián Álvarezthe player of Manchester City had a good performance in this season and he got some offers from the other teams. It seems Atletico Madrid is interested in hiring Julián Álvarez for their teams and they sent him an offer. He joined Manchester City back in 2022 and for 22 million euros but because of Haaland, he couldn't have the opportunity he wanted to have. While Atletico Madrid was hoping to see him accept the offer.
But Manchester City clearly said Julián Álvarez is not for sale and they won't let him go.

Truth is losing mbappe means that psg style of play and financial books will struggle because they have lost a 200m asset for free transfer. The bigger question meanwhile is that how does Luis Enrique plan to rebuild ?

Julián Álvarez performed well in Man City, but he still can't get a regular position there. Haaland becomes the obstacle of Álvarez to play as the main striker there. So, it is very unlikely to be the main player there. Considering this situation, it is normal if there are some teams interested to sign him. As far as I know, not only Atletico Madrid which is serious to sign Álvarez. PSG and Chelsea also try to negotiate with Man City to sign this player. But I doubt if Álvarez will move to Chelsea because it will be a problem for Man City. I guess PSG and Atletico Madrid will be the next team of Álvarez.



These are some news related to the possibility of Álvarez moving from Man City.

This was not true. Losing Mbappe will not impact PSG's playstyle considering it's only missing its good striker. Enrique continues to employ the same gameplay as when Mbappe was there but with the different striker. There's no difference here. The only difference is that PSG will be losing someone capable of scoring many goals in the French league, as he has transferred to Real Madrid.

Since when did Enrique say he would not rebuild? He has done it since he joined the club. Did you forget this was a game for eleven players? Do not attempt to centralize anything on mbappe. He's good with his choice to join madrid. The picture clearly said how big mbappe's contribution to the club this season. we may not able to see someone who was capable enough in doing it on PSG.

Goncalo? No mate, he was a flop.

Mbappe is not only an influential player for PSG, but he is also the only star player who creates enthusiasm for watching Ligue 1 matches. After Mbappe left for Real Madrid, the Liga 1 organizers had difficulty getting broadcast rights for next season's competition because he was one of the star players who made Ligue 1 still get the attention of football fans. PSG must work hard to bring star players to Ligue 1 so that television will spend funds to broadcast all the matches played by Ligue 1 teams.

PSG is the focus of Ligue 1 because they have large funds which make it easy to bring in star players. Mbappe departure is a big loss for PSG and Ligue 1. The arrival of other star players is highly expected in order to enable PSG to provide competition in the Champions League and Ligue 1 receiving broadcast rights offers from television.

Alessandro Nesta, set to sign as new Monza head coach to replace Raffaele Palladino.
Verbal agreement in place and now set to be completed.

We all know it. When Fabrizio Romano is the man saying it, it is almost certainly going to happen. I honestly do not know much about this coach. All I know is that he was a very decent player. But she is definitely not a top-level coach. He did work with Miami FC, Frosinone before. Do not think he has actually worked with any very big teams before. So I wonder what he is going to do with his new club. To be honest I am not very hopeful about this one. But again he is not taking up the job of an elite level club. He’s going to work with Monza. If they finish in the first 10, they will probably be happy.

Monza currently have no manager because Raffaele Palladino has been withdraw as Monza manager and he decided to train Fiorentina and reported the negotiation between Alessandro Nesta and Monza is still on going to talking about contract detail which this showing most likely Alessandro Nesta will be hired as the replacement of Raffaele Palladino and indeed as a player Alessandro Nesta is Italy and AC Milan legend because during his career as a player Alessandro Nesta can gets several trophies with Italy and AC Milan

Indeed Alessandro Nesta is great player but his managerial career is not as good as when he was an active player because after he retired Alessandro Nesta only spend his time to train small teams in Serie B and the latest is Alessandro Nesta was train Reggiana for one season and his contract was not renewed with that team because Alessandro Nesta only able to bringing Reggiana to finish at 11th place on Serie B and if the negotiation between him and Monza reach an agreement then this is his first experience coaching a Serie A team

Alexandro Nesta is a legendary defender who is indeed very tough, strong and also fast, so far we have known him as an irreplaceable player in the Lazio and Milan defense in particular, in playing of course he has a very extraordinary ability, but as a coach of course he does not have brilliant achievements and is quite proud at this time,   Monza of course has the opportunity to work with Nesta after they now lose Raffaele Palladino who has indeed left for Fiorentina, currently it seems that many teams are starting to try to pit their fate by appointing young coaches and also beginners to coach a club and of course it is an opportunity for young coaches to show their talent in coaching at this time.

During the coaching of Raffaele Palladino of course monza has improved quite rapidly and even in the last two seasons they have been able to consistently be in the middle of the Serie A standings, so I think nesta will certainly not have too much trouble maintaining the form and also the position of monza next season because indeed monza will reportedly retain the majority of their squad this season.  In addition, even though he does not have much experience in coaching mid-table teams, at least Nesta can apply all the knowledge he has gained as a player so far to build Monza even better and of course the target of entering the top 10 is the most realistic target.

If the deal to Chelsea would be possible, I'm thinking if he swings that way it'll be a great idea for him.... What do you think? Yeah, Atletico Madrid needs a point man there since Memphis Depay has already parted ways with the club, Alvaro Morata has not been long consistent with his form and how long can they rely on Griezmann alone? It would be awesome move and switch.

For his move to Chelsea,  he'll have to discuss with whoever's in charge so he doesn't have to compete with nobody about his place in that squad.

Manchester City cannot hold down a player who wants to leave the club, and saying it's because of Erling Haaland he hasn't gotten enough chance to play sounds somehow to me.
Erling Haaland is definitely one step ahead of Alvarez and we all saw hi impact. Pep Guardiola would have to merge them both together them if he has no plan placing him on the bench them.

Here we go. The rumor about Szczesny is coming up again.

Some points about him:

• Turin is not let him to leave from the club. He has not yet decided on which team to continue his career as a goal keeper.
  
  Possibility
  
  
• Al nassr
  - This rumor has appeared a few months ago but there was no further development about that. The latest news about juventus tells him free to leave from the club is opening the possibility for Szczesny to go to the saudi pro league to reunite with ronaldo.
  Al nassr's current goal keeper is so garbage. The club needs to bring him back.
  
  
  
• Arsenal
  - Raya took the spot as main goal keeper in arsenal. Ramsdale has showed his interest to leave from the club. Arsenal may possible to lost its second goal keeper as he is keen to join in the newcastle as a new goal keeper
  Szczesny may be good enough to fulfill the empty spot if ramsdale will leave from arsenal.

sometimes big players like mbape and the likes of Christian Ronaldo could be a major distraction to other shining starts in the team and untill the leave the club, that's when you will notice that there are great replacements that could do literally the same thing they are doing at the attack. It's no doubt that mbape is a good attacker who does is job very well for PSG and his absence would be felt by both players and supporter but as a team, there will always be alternative and a substitute in the event that he's no longer in the team. The team will struggle somehow maybe for few matches to learn how to play without him but overall, PSG will survive and do well even without mbape.

Lukaku's still got it. The guy's a goal-scoring machine. Okay, maybe he's not 25 anymore, but experience matters. Chelsea's not giving him away for peanuts, and thats smart business. Napoli wants him? Great. But they gotta pony up. This isnt some garage sale. Lukaku's a superstar. Now, if he's against Saudi Arabia, that limits his options. But a talent like that doesnt stay on the bench for long.

Something will happen. Maybe another team steps up. Maybe Chelsea realizes what they've got. The transfer window is crazy. Anything can happen. But one thing's for sure: Lukaku's too good to be sitting around.

I mean the problem is that Arda has people who are quite young on the same place as he normally plays. Like if he was a right back, then I would say put him into the bench and anytime Carvajal can't play then he would play and then when Carvajal retires or leaves then Arda would take his place. But arda is a midfielder, he could possibly play at right wing too, or advance midfield but those are it.

At the same places, they have Camavinga, Valverde, Tchouameni, Jude, Rodrygo, and Modric for a while longer as well. Maybe I am even missing some names. I am not saying they should sell him, dude is a great player and all but it is clear that we are talking about a player who will not have that much time when they have these players and it is going to be tough. At the very least he is young so we could maybe see him get some time when he grows older, he is only 19 years old and already played some, I bet that he will play more and more from the bench with more time.

Yes, it's actually true that it's being speculated everywhere in the media that Julian Alvarez might be leaving Manchester city this summer due to the fact that he can't cement his place as a regular starter in Manchester city team because Erling halaand is more famous and more ruthless in front of goal than him, though his contribution to this Manchester city side is very much visible for all to see, but Erling halaand is way more ahead of him in the team, so he just want to go to a team that he is going to features more.

So among the teams that is being speculated that is vying for his signature is Chelsea and atletico madrid, and to be frank, I would really like seeing him in the Chelsea colours, but I don't think Manchester city will want to sanction such move, since he might face them next season if the move to Chelsea went through, so at this point, atletico madrid is his most likely destination.

Here I completely agreed with you about this all with things are clearly indicating he is the good player, and he can develop by time as well, but Manchester United needs to give him some respect with playing time as well because in last season he has done good job at the Getafe, and now he deserved better things here as well if they are not having any intention to give him chance then surely they need to sell him, but current price is too high with few clubs are not able to afford specially Barcelona and Getafe both are interested and having good mind about him but this all depends on Manchester United management what they want to do.

This is a good offer for the young that striker to join a bigger club. He played well at Getafe, which made several big clubs interested in buying him from Manchester United and the club set a fairly expensive price because of his good performance in La Liga. But Getafe can't afford to buy him, this club can only afford the loan option from Manchester United but it is an opportunity for Juventus to recruit this player if Getafe can't afford him and it is a good opportunity for the player to join the Italian league and join a big club there that is very good to support his career in football.

Rather than having to stay at Manchester United which doesn't give him much playing time, it's better for him to leave the club and choose a club that uses his services and at Juventus he can play as a regular player especially knowing that his potential at Getafe is quite good and Juventus is looking for several players to improve their performance next season because this season Juventus is not playing optimally and next season Juventus needs new players to perform well in the Champions League next season.
