⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[BITCOIN4X]

~Snip

Is this just speculation or their is some truth to what you are actually saying because I don't know and an pretty sure that Xabi Alonso doesn't have such plans for now about leaving Bayern Leverkusen for now. I think Xabi has already made it clear that he doesn't intend on leaving that club anytime soon atleast like you said he needs to first implement his legacy with the club first.

Xabi Alonso must gain more experience in the Bundesliga before he moves to another league.
He have stated that he will stay at Leverkusen next season and wants to strengthen his skills as a coach. But as said, Xabi Alonso will most likely find it very difficult to match his good record again after such a great season.

Several new players will be brought in to strengthen the team next season. But no matter how much Xabi wants to maintain his team's performance next season, I am sure he will never be able to repeat this history. I can probably expect Leverkusen to be in the top 4 of the standings, but this really depends on how the players do their job in each match. Next season will probably be Xabi Alonso's last at Leverkusen, of course because he will also be very interested in gaining other experience in some great teams.

Both Real Madrid and Chelsea were trying hard to hire Pedro Lima the young Brazilian player for the next season.
Since he is a 17-year-old player, he can be a good investment for the team he joins there and he can play there for years and become a superstar player because of the experience he has. While considering the power of Real Madrid I was expecting to see Real Madrid hire this player but this time it seems Chelsea won the race and they are very close to signing the contract with this player.

I'm not sure what Real Madrid expects from this player. Pedro Lima is a very young right-back to be expected to replace Carvajal, so I don't think Real Madrid will take this rumor as reality. So far Real Madrid is more likely to buy quality players than to recruit new stars in their team, of course they don't need more young players because good financial strength can help them find other quality players.

Pedro Lima is only 17 years old and he plays for Sport Recife in Brazil's Serie B. Of course he is looked at by scouts, but I don't think Real Madrid really need this player. If something is needed, then it is very possible for Real Madrid to bring in a quality right-back who can replace the aging Carvajal.

If we consider the age of the Spanish right-winger Lamine Yamal who is about 16 years of age and playing good football at Barcelona then,  Pedro Lima 17 can play much better too playing for Real Madrid as a young player. I think that for Real Madrid to go after him then they must have seen some potential in the young star for the future and he can stay at Madrid and gradually get that experience to play the madrista kinda of football. Real Madrid doesn't go for mediocre

Yes, if compared to maybe Pedro Lama can also develop well at Real Madrid and can occupy his position as a right-back and can be an asset for Real Madrid in the future if he can really bring in this young Brazilian player, but we don't know what Ancelotti and his staff will plan, maybe it will give a different impression in the next season because he has included Mbappe, there must be some changes in strategy regarding the structure of the game that will be poured, does he still need a right-back where currently it is still quite complete and good.

But when it comes to Chelsea, of course this is a potential business for TOD, he will buy more players again maybe for this season, we know that his habit is always to collect a lot of players and resell them or even kill someone's career because they don't get playing time and most of the substitutes in his cage.

It's a no, no, no for me Chelsea is not a good destination for the young lad considering his age and with lots of young players in the Chelsea team it makes my preference for real madrid more stronger because he needs to be in a team where he will eat in no time that needed experience he may be lacking due to his age and Madrid is just right for him with those sets of players.

Hahaha, of course no one would agree to be at chelsea especially a young player who is just developing, he needs experience and a lot of flying hours so that he can develop much better in the future, but what if Pedro Lima agreed to it because he wanted to be in the premier league? maybe we won't be able to, he has to compete with many other young players there to be able to become a chelsea starting eleven in order to get priority to play and in the next season he can look for a team that can buy him back.

Young players are a good investment for teams that are considering using them, and I am not sure if Madrid will be the right place for Pedro Lima because we know how competitive Madrid squad is, and the Madrid management didn't like giving young players a chance in the first team in major leagues; they will be using the young players in their academy, and I am sure Pedro Lima will looking for any team that will give him enough playing time, which I think Chelsea will be the right place for him since the new coach is trying to bring players to make the team great again.

The young defender will be comfortable in Chelsea because his position as right-back is an important position that Chelsea needs to take seriously since Rece James has now become an injury-prone player because he can hardly play ten consecutive games without getting injured.

[baeva]

Two trophies with the team is a really good achievement, but I'm still against him staying in charge of a team that is extremely unstable under his leadership. With such consistency it's lucky that they won a trophy this season and didn't fall even lower in the standings. I hope that if something goes wrong next season they will change the coach immediately. This chance should be the last one for Ten Hag

I am also one of the people who doesn't really like Erik ten Hag's coaching style. And after all, Manchester United really slumped last season in the Premier League standings. And that was not a good view that Manchester United showed last season. And maybe if Manchester United doesn't manage to win a trophy in the FA Cup then I'm sure Erik ten Hag will be fired. But it seems like the club is considering this and is still giving Erik Ten Hag a chance in the coming season. And despite all that, I also can't completely blame Erik Ten Hag for Manchester United's poor performance last season. because the Manchester United squad has become a bit chaotic due to the storm of injuries they faced last season. So I can understand a little about the reasons behind Manchester United's decline. But if next season there are no positive changes then I also agree that Manchester United must immediately look for a replacement for Ten Hag.

It's never been an excuse for me that a lot of players are injured and that's why the team isn't playing well. The coach's task is to build a team from what we have. If you don't have key players, you have to rebuild the team in such a way that you don't lose and maybe even win. But alas, Ten Hag doesn't seem to be able to do that, even if he would like it very much

Chelsea owners are working tirelessly to keep investing in young talents and i am so surprised as the list keeps increasing and they not showing any signs of slowing down, they seemed determined to be building something they so much believe in but what i don’t understand is why they are only focused on getting young players from South America only. I don’t know what their intentions are but signing too many players might be confusing for the coach especially when they are too young without any prior experience in Europe, they coach might find it difficult to figure out the players to keep and the ones to loan out.

Going for young players will definitely be beneficial in future even if it’s not now because i see it as an investment and the owners are definitely not expecting much results from them now but they know they will grow to become talents in future.

[Docnaster]

I can't even image how crazy Xabi Alonso will be once he manages a large team like Real Madrid. We can imagine that one of best coach and greatest team in the world . Xabi was struggling throughout his debut season with Leverkusen. AFAIK, Levekusen was also performing well under Gerardo Seoane. It was able to finish in the top three at 21/22. Xabi joined Leverkusen in the second half of the season, at 22/23, because Gerardo Seoane had not performed well since the beginning of the season. So Leverkusen chose to fire him and hire Xabi Alonso as a temporary caretaker for the team. Leverkusen should do that in order to make sure club could able to participate in the european competition

Abou Xabi and Madrid. I've heard that Real Madrid has plans to bring Xabi and his favorite player, Florian Wirtz, to Madrid. Ancellotti's contract may extend until 2026, but it does not rule out the prospect of an extension with Real Madrid. We know how madrid is very respecting him as one of greatest coach that was always helping madrid to go to the its peak performance
Real Madrid has clearly identified Xabi Alonso as the strongest contender to replace Ancellotti whenever he leaves the club. So many rumors have been appearing but we will see that soon.

Xabi + Real Madrid = unbeatable clubs in all competitions.

Definitely if Xabi Alonso moves to Real Madrid after his contract must have expired at Bayern Leverkusen he will do well for the Madrid team because Real Madrid has great talented players already so any coach can cope very well with the squad and for the fact that Xabi Alonso was able to go last season unbeaten in the Bundesliga means he is good to manage a prestigious club like Real Madrid. For the fact that Xabi Alonso took over from Gerardo Seoane and was able to lead the team to victory just a year after means that if he is given bigger contract he can as well deliver without any fear.
Even though the speculation about Xabi Alonso coming to Madrid is a rumour but there is not smoke without a fire so since the rumour is already in air, it is likely to be true. Florian Wirtz is a good player and Xabi Alonso's favourite player so he can decide to take him along to Real Madrid if he eventually have the opportunity to coach the team.

Xabi Alonso before he took over the managerial role at Bayer Leverkusen has never coached the first team of any club before but in two seasons with the German champions, he led them to stop Bayern Munich's dominance in the German league by winning the Bundesliga in the grandest style as his team became the first German club to go the entire season without conceding a defeat. With what Xabi Alonso have already achieved with Bayer Leverkusen, it clearly shows that he'll do exceptionally well should he become a Real Madrid manager. The Spanish champions is a team that's made up of world class players who I think will make
work easier Xabi Alonso.
Real Madrid's manager Carlo Ancelotti is currently contracted with the club but I don't see him remain at the club for more than three seasons from now so I strongly believe that Xabi Alonso have a chance of managing Real Madrid in the nearest future

[Raflesia]

Several new players will be brought in to strengthen the team next season. But no matter how much Xabi wants to maintain his team's performance next season, I am sure he will never be able to repeat this history. I can probably expect Leverkusen to be in the top 4 of the standings, but this really depends on how the players do their job in each match. Next season will probably be Xabi Alonso's last at Leverkusen, of course because he will also be very interested in gaining other experience in some great teams.

It's going to be difficult for Xabi to make the same history next season because at the moment it's a bit tricky with the pressure coming from many quarters and the slightest mistake will put him in the limelight.

Even if he can't bring Bayern like last season but at least he has to keep the performance so that it is not too lame and decreases drastically and I still believe this can still happen but with a note apart from Xabi not mismanaging his club this season, as much as possible he must keep some important players who became the backbone of last season.

We often see clubs that are good in one season but not good in the next and we see that this season especially maybe my focus is Napoli in Serie A and Union Berlin in the Bundesliga so as much as possible for Xabi now to make their conditions not change even though maybe the trophy is also still uncertain for next season but they must have the spirit to maintain that.

It seems that Madrid want to try to continue to carry out their long-term strategy and indeed looking for young players is not a new thing for Madrid but there are currently some competitors that they must face.
In addition to Chelsea and Madrid there are actually PSG who are eyeing this player even though it is a small possibility for PSG but they could overtake the hunt.

I don't know how Pedro Lima plays because I rarely see Brazilian league competition but indeed when I see several big clubs like now trying to recruit him at a young age, of course this raises a matter that can be ascertained that he has an above-average performance for wonderkids so that he is ogled by 3 clubs at once.

Now actually from some existing rumors Chelsea is the strongest to bring this player later but we still can't say this for sure because the rumors are still growing.

[Furious 7]

Manchester United must have been smart here because if they were to sack their current manager, who would take charge of their club was a big question for them. Bayern Munich, after letting go of an experienced manager, are realizing they shouldn't have let go in the first place. Ten Hag is quite experienced and has been working at Manchester United for a long time. He has improved Manchester United considerably, although he has not been able to make significant changes to Manchester United. As he has been given another chance next season, he will definitely try to make the most of this opportunity and do his best to save his job as well as his team's good performance. If Manchester United makes some plans and appoints some quality players in some positions, then this team's performance will definitely be good.

Although this is quite reasonable, in the end, keeping Ten Hag for now can be very risky because we cannot deny that 2 trophies in the last 2 seasons can Manchester United get in the current Ten Hag era, it's just that for performance problems, of course we cannot say that Ten Hag is doing well because I still feel that Ten Hag's performance is very ordinary for a club as big as Manchester United and standards for a big competition like the EPL.

If in the end Manchester United still try to keep this coach, the club's situation will not change much between these 2 seasons and next season, even I also still feel that in the end there will be at least one player who may be hostile to Ten Hag next season because it is like one of Ten Hag's habits in 2 seasons coaching Mancehster United.
2 seasons ago we have seen how his problems with Cristiano and this season he has problems with Sancho and it is possible that there will be more similar things with Manchester United players.

The ups and downs in performance will be felt if Xabi lets his important players leave. Xabi should do his best to make them stay, at least for next season. It's true, it will be very difficult to regain an unbeaten record, where Leverkusen will also compete in the Champions League. However, what is more important is that Leverkusen can maintain consistency so that it does not decline drastically, regardless of whether they are able to retain the trophy or not.

Bayern will start their campaign next season with a new manager, as will Dortmund, it could be that the change of manager provides a little convenience for Xabi fleet in domestic competitions. The challenges that Leverkusen will face next season will be even tougher, they are required to appear balanced in every competition. I think in the Bundesliga and DFB Pokal Leverkusen will appear consistent, but I am quite worried about their performance in the Champions League, especially after seeing them lose to Atalanta.

Some news we have here

Morata to Roma seems like a good move to me, the player should leave as long as he isn’t in the plans again. I think Atletico Madrid are planning a squad overhaul after what they deemed a poor performance last season. Roma on the other hand need an experienced striker with Lukaku set to leave and they need one that won’t be expensive and to me Morata will do well. Morata has the aeria ability that is much needed to survive in the seria A, he made history there with Juventus and can still pull off some again.

I think you meant to say that Chelsea are looking to ditch their own player Connor Gallagher which is definitely the talk of this summer transfer. At the moment Chelsea releasing him seems to me as a wrong move.

Alisson, rejected the proposal of Al-Nassr

Al-Nassr was reported to seek many players this season including Rudiger, Szczesny, Dybala and maybe others. Some of them rejected the offer and others like Szczesny might move there.
For Morata, since Atletico Madrid wants him to go in order to renew the squad then offers will come progressively and if Chelsea wants him then I assume they could satisfy the price asked by Atletico Madrid or just pay the release clause of €12m..

[TelolettOm]

Roma is interested in Morata who said he is not in Atletico plans anymore.

Why you stated Morata isn't in the plan? If you take a look at Atletico squad, they have lack of attackers. This will be too risky for them if they sell Morata to AS Roma. I assume it won't be easy to get the replacement because many teams are looking for new strikers in the new transfer windows. Moreover, Morata played quite well in Atletico Madrid, he also has a contract until 2026.

Douglas Luis is also interest in Barcelona but he is now very close to sign with Juvetus.

I doubt if Douglas Luis will join Barcelona. There should be a brighter future with Juventus. He may get a bad situation if he joins Barcelona. We know some players in Barcelona get a cut of their salaries. Douglas Luis may experience this if he moves there. Moreover, he looks to get a personal agreement with Juventus, he must focus on Juventus now.

I disagree with you.
Morata is a player who was once Atletico Madrid's solution, but has now become a disappointment.

At the start of 2023/24, the center forward proved that Diego Simeone was right in betting on him as an excellent striker for Atlético de Madrid, in fact, Morata seemed to be the solution in attack that they so needed.

His performance was so good, he even "fought" for the Golden Boot by quickly reaching the 20-goal mark. But, due to some misfortune, Álvaro Morata's performance dropped significantly in the most important phase of the year. I saw here... he went 17 games without scoring a single goal at a time when Atlético de Madrid needed to define its future in the Champions League, Copa del Rey and La Liga.
So, it was no surprise that the coach needed to interrupt Morata's run in the first team, and the result in recent months is to see Morata much more on the bench than on the field.

I believe that Morata, in fact, needs "new air".

I agree that Morata potential move to Roma makes sense for both parties. Atletico Madrid seems to be rebuilding their squad after disappointing season and Morata is not part of their plans. Roma on the other hand needs experienced striker with Lukaku likely leaving and Morata fits bill without being too expensive. Morata has proven his aerial ability in Serie A during his time with Juventus and I believe he can still make an impact. Meanwhile Chelsea rumored plans to sell Connor Gallagher seem misguided to me at least for now. Gallagher has potential and could be a valuable asset for Chelsea in future.

If look at the contract, it is clear that Alvaro Morata contract will end in 2026 and this means there are still two more season for Alvaro Morata to play with Atletico Madrid and help them maintain their performance.
Moreover, Alvaro Morata is also very important player for Atletico Madrid and he has also made big contribution to Atletico Madrid so far, for this season alone he has provided at least 15 goals and also 3 assists for Atletico Madrid while playing in La Liga.
4 good season for Alvaro Morata with Atletico Madrid and of course it would be shame if Atletico Madrid just let him go, but from several rumors circulating there is indeed news about Alvaro Morata leaving at the turn of this season.
I don't know what actually happened with Alvaro Morata and Atletico Madrid, but what is clear is that all decisions will be in the hands of the team officials whether they will sell him or keep him, but it would be very detrimental if Atletico Madrid sold Alvaro Morata.
For La Liga itself, the competition next season is certain to be even fiercer and the presence of Alvaro Morata is also really needed by Atletico Madrid.

Meanwhile Chelsea rumored plans to sell Connor Gallagher seem misguided to me at least for now. Gallagher has potential and could be a valuable asset for Chelsea in future.

I think most analyses I've read suggest Chelsea's board doesn't really believe in his future, so they're keen to sell him to acquire some financial wiggle room to comply with financial fair play rules, etc[1]. I guess we can only wait and see whether their midfield is strong enough without him soon. Assuming they manage to sell him for profit, they should be careful not to repeat the same mistake of hiring another young player for 5+ seasons again[2]. Who knows what's going on in their head, they see Chelsea as a business first before a football club IMO. CMIIW.

The only possible player to be signed by al nassr is Szczesny

Here's my explanation about why it's not possible for nassr to sign rudiger and dybala.

• Al nassr has sent rudiger 100 millions contract for 4 years. Rudiger has rejected this because he is happy in real madrid. He will not get second chance to play in the best club in the world. Moving from real madrid to the al nassr is such a disgrace for rudiger's career as a football player.
• It's also impossible for al nassr to get dybala from roma. Dybala has ever told media if he would like to join in the team that is participating in the UCL. AFAIk, intermilan has been targeting him. Dybala will be going to the intermilan rather than al nassr.
• TBH, im also doubting Szczesny to join in the al nassr. It's caused by arsenal is also keen to resigned him back as a goal keeper, but Szczesny still opens possibility to reunite with ronaldo.

[makishart]

There are several Premier League clubs are still studying Olise at the moment, but Chelsea is attempting to press for his signing as a new player through make a direct contact with palace about olise. Chelsea is now inquiring about Olise's release clause and the blues is still waiting for palace's feedback. It appears that the blues are fully committed to secure him from the Crystal Palace. The Blues are also reported moving further closer to Jhon Duran from Aston Villa. I think that maresca can use all of these talents properly in the upcoming season. Im hoping no more disappointment from these transfers by chelsea.
Enough is enough to see some new players feel so difficult to build chemistry in the club.

The competition to get into the main starting lineup is only growing tougher in chelsea because so many players are available to play in the squad.

Here are a few details about Chelsea's transfer.


- Chelsea is getting closer to John Duran and Olise. Chelsea will have to spend £103 million on these men. that's not a small amounts of chelsea but it sounds better than spend 130 millions only for osimhen, right?
Michael Olise - £65 Million
Jhon Duran - £38 Million

- Chelsea is also reportedly planning a U-turn for Gallagher following his amazing performance last season. The Blues are now considering sending a new contract extension to Gallagher. I believe Gallagher will accept to extend his contract with Chelsea.

The Blues are currently serious about establishing a good club to challenge with Arsenal and Manchester City for the title next season. Im hoping chelsea will be as competitive as when the club was under abramovich.
