⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Helena Yu]

The process of Leny Yoro's transfer to Real Madrid has yet to come to a conclusion and it seems that Real Madrid will continue to struggle hard to obtain the services of this young player from France. As is known, this rumor has been circulating for several months but an agreement has not yet been reached between Real Madrid and Lille.

Now Leny Yoro's transfer has entered a new phase where Liverpool are also competing to sign this 18 year old player's contract and it seems it's just a matter of how Leny Yoro decides his future. Two big teams both need him and on the one hand, if he wants to fight in the EPL then he will get more experience. Another option is if he joins Real Madrid, of course he will also have to be patient to get playing minutes, but on the other hand, it will also be easy for him to get the title he dreams of.

Highly overrated player, he didn't give any big contribution to Lille and he's not even able to reach senior France's team, while Mbappe when he was still 18 years old already included in senior team.

Lille ask for $64 Million [1] some of the teams can't fulfill it, however Liverpool show if they willing to pay such amount to sign Yoro [2] it high likely Yoro will join Liverpool. Although I don't see any reason why they need to pay so huge just for this unknown player.

After Real Madrid succeeded in bringing in Mbappe for free from PSG, this will further increase competition on the front lines, he is certain to immediately get a guarantee to fill the main squad. Joselu will be the second option for Real Madrid, he will spend more time on the bench next season. Real Madrid which has a busy schedule, provides a breath of fresh air for Joselu, Ancelotti will rotate in several matches which will give Joselu a playing slot.
Joselu was the hero of Real Madrid victory several times, he managed to change the outcome of the match after playing as a substitute. He is an experienced player, but his age makes it difficult for him to compete with younger players.

I don’t know, it seems to me that everything will be fine, the basis of the attack will be Vinicius and Mbappe, Rodrigo may need to move a little lower to Vinnicius, everything will depend on what formation Ancelotti will play with. Don’t forget that Cross left the team and this place is in the middle line, he will need to be replaced by someone. Whatever it is, it’s better to have a problem like this when you have a lot of players and you decide who to give the opportunity to play, than like PSG when they were left without a striker and you’re thinking about who to replace him with.

Everybody knows Mbappe is a superstar. But he's just one piece of the puzzle. Ancelotti has to figure out how to make the greatest players in the world communicate. Thats the challenge, and thats what makes it fun. You have Vini, Rodrygo, Bellingham, Joselu - all hungry for goal. And who's gonna fill Kroos' shoes? Thats a big question. But thats what makes a great team, right? Everyone's gotta step up.

Ancelotti is no fool now, that much is clear. He's gonna find the right formation. He will change, adjust. Possibly there is more possession or counterattacking. Who knows?

Earlier today I read in the news that Leicester City has appointed Cooper as their head coach over Graham Potter. I was surprised that Leicester has to settle for Cooper over Graham Potter. Cooper was a Man that struggled with Nottingham Forest before he was sacked in December last year. I was thinking that Leicester would be more ambitious in appointing a more reputable manager as their head coach. Cooper struggled with Nottingham Forest for two seasons in the premier league, he was always fighting relegation and was eventually sacked. If not that he was sacked and replaced by Nuno Espirinto, Cooper would have taken Nottingham Forest to relegation. Leicester City should have have appointed Graham in my own opinion, Graham did a good job at Brighton before he left for Chelsea. At Chelsea he didn't have enough time to settle things and make it work before he was sacked by the new owners. But I feel that Graham Potter is a more advanced coach than Cooper, I just hope this Man will not take Leicester back to the relegation when the season finally starts.

The difficulty of deciding who to play for Real Madrid, which has many star players, does not upset Ancelotti. Training performance is very important for Ancelotti. Moreover, these players will bring all kinds of success to the team. Real Madrid will scare every rival team next year

Real Madrid will become a very fierce club because the president always make sure he has the best signing of the season. Previous transfer window, he sign Jude Bellingham but now, he's settled for Kylian Mbappe who's an outstanding player for his former club and will do better in Real Madrid. Los Blancos have already passed the highlights of winning more major titles in coming season. Real Madrid have experienced and young players and they've play collectively to accomplish their targets. Real Madrid headcoach, Carlo Ancelotti knows the most selectable decision that will be comfortable for his club and we know it's really his priority to ensure he's taking home major titles.

Real Madrid's president is a very experienced man who spends money to recruit better players, which is why the club is still functioning well and winning trophies back-to-back. That is what Barcelona lacks; they do not have the money to get crucial players, which is why they do poorly in league competition. Real Madrid's addition of Mbappe has made them a formidable opponent for any club. Madrid no longer needs any transfers; the only thing they lack is a striker, but now that they have Mbappe, they will not buy any more players, and Real Madrid will be the favorites to win the La Liga title next season. Since Barcelona did not make any changes still they will still probably perform weak but let see if the new coach will do something good to make the team stronger.

Chelsea is interested in Belgium striker Lois Openda.
Mykhailo Mudryk could leave Chelsea.

It looks like Chelsea still haven't given up on registering players who really shine at the club and this means the second time after Chelsea also completed Nkunku from Leipzig and now they will again target Nkunku's replacement last season for Leipzig although surely this will require a large enough nominal to bring Openda. It's just that for Openda it's clearly a little complicated even though there are indeed some rumors that say that Openda could have left with an offer of 70 million but I don't feel this will go smoothly for Chelsea.

On the other hand, this is clearly a problem for Mudryk and it is very natural that he leaves under these conditions. He lost momentum at Chelsea and indeed he is one of the players who is overated with his price so it is quite natural if indeed Mudryk will be allowed to leave because by looking at the price Chelsea gave and the performance he showed throughout the season when in Chelsea uniform then indeed we are certainly aware that Mudryk should not be at a big club like Chelsea because it is not too suitable for his capacity.

Ancelotti is definitely thinking about the best tactics and might return to the 4-3-3 formation. In this setup, Vinicius would play on the left, Mbappe in the center, and Rodrygo on the right wing. This could be Madrid's lineup for next season. However, can Madrid really afford to replace Toni Kroos, who has been central to their playing style? A new transition in tactics under Ancelotti's supervision could be great, but Kroos will be missed. Still, I believe Madrid has quality backups for every position on the field.

In Real Madrid’s midfield, they have a lot of backups and if you watch closely at what happened, they don’t want all of their midfields to leave the club at once. Some years back, it was Casemiro, Kroos and Modric. After Casemiro left to Manchester United, they still didn’t feel his absence and were able to cover up with a good replacement. I believe Kroos and Modric all wanted to leave the club last season but they persuaded Modric to stay back for one more season. I am sure that during his stay now, he will only be teaching the young ones that will replace them how to handle the midfield when he finally leaves. They have the backups but they have to do some smart transitions in other to continue remaining the great team they are as usual in La Liga and the champions league.

I think Mudrick's departure will only be worthwhile if the new player is paid a reasonable wage and bought for reasonable money, unlike Mudrick. They spent too much money on him and he clearly didn't justify it, 7 goals can't be worth 100 million. I think if he was bought 10 times cheaper he would probably fully justify his cost. Oh and also the possible transfer of Oliseh would be nice because looking at him from the outside he is playing much better

Mykhailo Mudryk could leave Chelsea.

Loïs Openda is one of the most productive strikers in Bundesliga in season 2023-2024. It is a good idea to sign him because Chelsea needs an experienced striker with great ability. However, I doubt if RB Leipzig wants to sell him because he is the machine goal of RB Leipzig. If Chelsea doesn't make offer with big transfer fees, I'm sure Loïs Openda will stay in RB Leipzig. His market value is around €60m, I think RB Leipzig only wants to sell him at least €80m. He is still young and has a long time contract with RB Leipzig (June 30, 2028). RB Leipzig won't hurry to sell him, he is very valuable for RB Leipzig.

I think Chelsea will keep Mudryk because Chelsea has no many options for the wingers. Mudryk performed not so bad, he deserves to stay in Chelsea. Since  he is still crucial for Chelsea, I believe Mudryk will continue his career in Chelsea.

Manchester United is doing a talk for goalkeeper Josep Martinez, even if Inter Milan already agreed personal terms with the player.

I don't see a chance that Man United can sign Josep Martinez. Josep Martinez must prefer to choose Inter Milan because he is familiar with Serie A atmosphere, he also will get a good future in Inter Milan because he will be the only young goalkeeper there. Josep Martinez will be projected to be the main goalkeeper in Inter Milan, meanwhile he will compete for the goalkeeper position with Onana if he joins Man United. Also, Josep Martinez looks easier to win trophies if he joins Inter Milan. Considering these matters, no reason for Josep Martinez to choose Man United over Inter Milan.

The speculation about the future of Mykhailo Mudryk in Chelsea was appears since this winter because since joining Chelsea Mykhailo Mudryk was unable to performing well just like he was showed when playing at Shakhtar Donetsk and some people considers Chelsea has got scammed because the transfer fee when they bought Mykhailo Mudryk was very expensive so people have been wondering whether Mykhailo Mudryk is really worth to that price or not considering since joining Chelsea Mykhailo Mudryk didn't give any significant progress with this team

I have to says Mykhailo Mudryk was failed to adapt with Chelsea and Premier League so that's why he was unable to reach to his top performance with Chelsea but i think Chelsea shouldn't be rush to decided whether they will sell Mykhailo Mudryk or not because he still have potention to develop his skill in Chelsea and actually last season Mykhailo Mudryk performance is better but indeed he still cannot help Chelsea to reach to top 4 position on League Standing however according to the rumour if Chelsea is really want to sell him then probably Arsenal can save his career

I heard talks about Osimhen wanting to move to Chelsea. I don't know if the team is willing to sign him or they have other plans with Openda and other players potentially?
Anyway, it is clear that Chelsea have to make some serious signing to get back to the top places in the English Premier League and to pick a place for UEFA Champions League ultimately. They used to play advanced stages previously..

What if this rush to get Mbape in 2021 wasn't part of his campaign strategy and to win leagues for Real Madrid? What if all this pressure to get Mbape to Real Madrid project was really what Real Madrid management like because looks at it from this angle, the pressure to sign him started when they won Champions League and they signed him when they won another Champions League and with losing only single match for the whole season, Anceloti would careless about needing that boy from beginning.

Since he is here already, it will help the team as well because Rodrigo, Vinicious, Bellingham and some other good players in the team are already filling lonely at the top, the presence of Mbape will make them insecure about their future performance and will like to improve more on their games creating a super competition within them and when they have any match, they will murder any team.

Since Barcelona did not make any changes still they will still probably perform weak but let see if the new coach will do something good to make the team stronger.

Yes that's right. Real Madrid is very smart and very experienced in recruiting players in recent years, they can even get players for free and have a very good impact on the team. Just look, in the last few years, Real Madrid has managed to recruit several players for free, such as David Alaba 2021, Antonio Rudiger 2022, and Kylian Mbappe 2024. Maybe next season they will also get defender Alphonso Davies from Bayern Munich for free.

When buying players, Perez takes a direct approach to his players. Currently Alphonso Davies only has 1 year remaining on his contract and it is very likely that he will not extend his contract, so Real Madrid could get him for free if Bayern Munich does not sell him immediately. Real Madrid wants to buy at a price below that offered by Bayern Munich.

If we talk about Barcelona, ​​they failed to transfer players and had a financial crisis, but they bought players at high prices and high salaries so that Barcelona's finances are currently unstable. Next season Real Madrid will still dominate LaLiga because their squad is better than Barcelona at the moment.

Actually, in my opinion, pairing Mbappe and Haaland in one team will not be effective, maybe you have seen that with Messi, Nyemar and Mbappe as an illustration that PSG cannot be successful in European competitions. There will be a lot of ego created if 2 players like Mbappe and Haaland join. This is not what Ancelotti wants, Real Madrid stability needs to be maintained, not all great players need to be in Madrid if it ends up destroying the existing balance. Just having Mbappe is enough to complement Real Madrid's front line, and let Haaland remain opposite Mbappe. Because in this modern era of football there is competition for the best candidates in each team. Man City and Real Madrid, keep in mind that if Mbappe and Haaland had to share a place, would that be acceptable to them? The status of a striker is to have his own place as a core player. And I'm sure Mbappe or Haaland are not willing to share playing time.

Come on Mbappe that's enough, there's no need for everyone to be in Madrid, there are still lots of other teams in Europe, don't let the world of football be biased against one team. Because we need competition, not collections.

Haaland and Mbappe cannot play together at Real Madrid, firstly because of ego (no one wants to be in the shadow), and secondly for economic reasons. Real already has 3 of the most expensive players from the top 5. It would be strange to add Haaland here. They all have big salaries so it would be difficult from a financial point of view.
If we talk only about the game, then a scheme where Haaland plays the central striker, Mbappe plays a little lower, and then Vinnie, Bellingham, Rodrigo, then this would be ideal.

Chelsea spending without breaking any financial fair play rules should be stopped because why are they allowing only one club to spend so much in a short time and they are not being punished. They are making other clubs to look small and inflating the price of players that re not worth the amount that they are spending on, making it difficult for other clubs to sign playes as the clubs also want to overprice their players. Chelsea might be doing some money laundering business because they are spending too much on average players. None of the players they bought for enormous sums have done something to be worth the amount they spend on buying the player yet they still want to spend more money to buy more average players that have not proven their worth in a big league.

[Alpha Marine]

Juventus and Douglas Luis could be official during this week

I believe this is going to be one of the best signings in Serie A next season. The deal is good for both Juventus and Douglas Luis. He's a good player and it's good to see him go from Aston Villa to Juventus.
Juventus really needs somebody like that in the middle of their midfield and especially now that new Manager Thiago Motta is taking over, it would be interesting to see how he utilities Douglas Luis. That's the kind of profile he likes, strong and very technical.

I heard talks about Osimhen wanting to move to Chelsea. I don't know if the team is willing to sign him or they have other plans with Openda and other players potentially?

At this point, I doubt it Osimhen would leave Napoli. Napoli are not in a hurry to sell, they're ready to hold out till their asking price is met and if the price is not met, they have nothing to lose, they'll just keep hold of Osimhen for the next season.
PSG looked like the most serious team for Osimhen but they have to let go of at least one of Ramos or Kolo Muani because they can't have 3 stickers in the team and Ramos looks like the most likely one to leave even though Kolo Muani has the higher market value.

[Stepstowealth]

Mykhailo Mudryk could leave Chelsea.

Chelsea should give him time because he has not yet adapted does not mean that he will not adapt to the system. It is possible that he thrives under the new coach Enzo. Mudryk remains a good substitute for any coach,  Chelsea will not be making the right decision to let him go.

About Chelsea trying to sign Osimhen, I do not think it is going to work.

I think there is no need for Haaland when there is Mbappe. Having so many star players in the team also has its disadvantages. The demands of the players can be very high, and each player can spend every position generously to stand out. I think they can finish this transfer season with a very good defender instead of Haaland and an excellent player instead of Kroos.

Mudryk looks like a fraudulent investment, where since he came to Stamford Bridge, his performance has never been in the best form. His expensive transfer value does not reflect his quality, many have even made him the butt of jokes on social media, Arteta will not buy such a player. It's true that Mudryk still has a lot of time to develop, because he's still very young, but it doesn't look like Enzo Maresca will give him much of a chance. Pochettino didn't have many choices last season, because most of Chelsea players were injured, so Mudryk had more time to play.

Mudryk scored 7 goals and recorded 2 assists from 41 matches in all competitions, I think that is very far from expectations. Meanwhile, the Blues will likely have difficulty selling Mudryk in the transfer window, where his high price will be a major obstacle, which is not commensurate with the contribution he can make. Mudryk made Chelsea go awry, and in fact there were several other Chelsea players who also failed to live up to expectations. If Chelsea want to let Mudryk go in this transfer window, they have to set a cheaper price so that his departure can happen.

Mourinho started his work in Fenerbahçe after the drama he had in Roma, Fenerbahçe is happy to have a famous coach like his in the team. Mourinho tried to do his best for Roma but it was not enough and that's why he got fired from this team.
Now after starting his work in Fenerbahçe, he wants to hire Filip Kostić and Dean Huijsen from Juventus, However, I think think if this will be easy for them because Juventus is also trying hard to keep the team in the good form.
