⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Raflesia]

Manchester United really need these signings, their defence line last season was a big mess, if not for the effort of mostly Wan Bissaka who really tried as much as he could to restrain from conceding that much than they could have. These new signings will really serve to fill those spaces, it's a good signing from the team especially that of the center back and I believe they would be going for another before the window closes, hopefully there will be a good development in their performance this season.

Currently Yoro has officially belonged to Manchester United and by looking at his performance with Lille last season of course we can see that he is indeed one of the players who has competence even though he is still quite young but his potential is still very good.

It's just that he is still quite young and still has a lot of direction so now it depends on Ten Hag whether he can guide Yoro well or become a failed purchase just like Mount and Amrabat last season.
Ten Hag needs to find a way to actually make his coaching style well received and with good chemistry too of course. If in the end he continues to be the same as he is currently doing then there could be a condition that in the end is not too different from previous seasons and it is not uncommon for the players to start losing respect and back into conflict which makes the club's performance erratic.

West Ham United want Kante. They're willing to pay a 20 million Pound fee for him. Kante, who is actually happy at Al-Ittihad, is also interested in returning to London. I think it would be great to watch him in the Premier League again. The fact that West Ham are willing to pay this price for him despite his advanced age shows how much they want him. We saw how he played at Euro 24, it will be fun to watch him in the Premier League again, but this time under West Ham United jersey.

Kante still seems to be a good option especially with the experience he has of course it will really help West Ham next season even though for now their focus is still only around the EPL but I think he will still be very useful.

His age is no longer young because he is currently 33 years old but I think he can still play in the EPL especially with the experience he has of course it will be very supportive even though it cannot be denied that his stamina will obviously be different.

20 million for a player like Kante is still very feasible but until now we still have to continue to wait for developments about this because seeing from the situation this is still only a rumor that has no clarity.

The West Ham team missed Declan Rice since they sold him to Arsenal in the last summer, the team has been struggling in their defense which is why they are trying to bring a solid midfield to their squad so that they can be a tough title competitor next season.

Will Kante join West Ham?
I think he will prefer other teams like Arsenal or even return back to his former team instead of signing for West Ham, but it seems like these teams are not showing interest in him which can be due to his age, but we all know that Kante is a player that will be needed in all teams because he is still strong and can perform well as we have seen in the Euros.

If Kante returns to EPL for joining West Ham, I think it is better to stay in Al Ittihad. I agree that Kante is better to join Arsenal, Man United, or Chelsea. These teams actually need a midfielder like Kante. But unfortunately, there is no rumor that the teams are interested to sign Kante. You're right, Kante is 33 years old, it is the only matter that makes him very hard to join EPL teams again. In EPL, the top teams prefer to sign younger players because they will have a long term career.

Personally, I don't see a chance of Kante to come back to EPL. I think he will prefer to stay in his current club. Al Ittihad looks like to be more competitive in the next season, they won't have the intention to put Kane to transfer list. Kante seems having no problem there, he enjoyed his journey in Saudi, he also gets good salary. So why he must return to EPL?

If we talking about England this team was never lack of talented players and every generations this team always be produce plenty of young talented players but England have one big problem that they have had for decades that everytime playing at big tournaments such as World Cup or Euro cup England was never able to performing well and it proven from their achievement because last time England gets the trophy from major competition on world cup 1966 but since that year England always be failed to gets the trophies

In my opinion, the England national team have 3 major problems.
The first is, that English managers are not that good. An English manager has never won the premier league. I think they need to try a manager from another country if Pride would let them do that. It's not compulsory they must go with an English manager for the national team. I know there would be an uproar and they won't support him, but he might be able to turn things around if given the opportunity.

Secondly, English players are not that good. Don't get me wrong, they're good, but they're overrated. Once an English player shines for a season, the whole of England and the English media treat him as the best thing after Lionel Messi. This puts a lot of unnecessary expectations on the young lad which he won't be able to deliver. Dele Ali was a victim of this. Jesse Lingard was also a victim. Sancho was one too. I can go on and on. Bellingham might be on that list too. I said this because I don't see Bellingham replicating his last season's form again. After all, with the arrival of Mbappe, he'll be forced to play behind the striker and that would mean fewer goals. He's not a very creative player but he makes up for it by being a workhorse. He can go from box to box, making tackles and intercepting plays. The media has made him that goal scorer, so when he doesn't score I hope that same media doesn't tear him apart.

Every year England goes into a tournament and acts like every other player is inferior to their players. Before the Euro final, Sky Sports made a combined 11 between England and Spain and they included only 2 Spanish players. I don't know if they're being narcissistic or having a main character syndrome or they just simply do not watch other teams play. We all saw how England were outplayed by the so much inferior team.

Thirdly, I feel the past players and legends of England put so much negativity on the current players. They're like parents who failed to achieve something so they force their kids to live their dreams instead of allowing the kid to follow their own dreams. They say so much negative things about the players instead of giving them support. Look at how players like Xavi, Iniesta, Villa etc all supported the young lads of Spain all through the tournament. This gives confidence to players instead of bad-mouthing them and taking their confidence away.

Ten Hag efforts will determine the direction of Manchester United next season, he must learn from his failure last season which made it difficult for Manchester United to compete in the EPL. Manchester United statistics last season were far from perfect, their defense line was very chaotic which made it very easy for the opposing team to break into their goal. Ten Hag also needs to bring in quality strikers so that the illnesses experienced by his team last season can be cured.

Manchester United's front line was very blunt, they had difficulty scoring goals even though they were facing a weak team. Ten Hag must choose the right players to fill any gaps in his squad, defense is a priority, he also needs to bring in a new striker to add sharpness to Manchester United's front line.

And look now, Ten Hag has brought in several players, recently Yoro was brought in at a fairly expensive price. So so far there have been no surprising player transfers from Ten Hag selection. Their finances are limited and adding a striker is not necessarily ideal when Erik Ten Hag selection of players is still below standard. I'm not sure about Manchester United fate next season, whether it will improve the situation or remain stagnant. This is no longer about adding players but about the quality of coaches.

What ten hag is currently doing is one of the efforts to strengthen their squad next season, ten hag currently has a lot of work to do at Manchester United remembering what happened to Manchester United last season, the defense and also the incompetent attacking line were the main problems of Manchester United last season, so it is not surprising that currently Manchester United are trying to bring in some new players who can In order to strengthen their attacking line, Manchester United have brought in Zirkzee from Bologna for around 42 million euros, while to strengthen the defensive line Manchester United brought in Leny Yoro for 52 million pounds, the two players were bought very expensively but will they make a big contribution to Manchester United next season?
Let's see next season...!!

Manchester United really need these signings, their defence line last season was a big mess, if not for the effort of mostly Wan Bissaka who really tried as much as he could to restrain from conceding that much than they could have. These new signings will really serve to fill those spaces, it's a good signing from the team especially that of the center back and I believe they would be going for another before the window closes, hopefully there will be a good development in their performance this season.

Onana also performed poorly last season because he made many blunders and also several defenders frequently suffered injuries which made Manchester United's defense line last season very fragile. This season Manchester United does not have a busy schedule because they are not playing in the Champions League so they must be able to focus on their ambition to become champions. Manchester United has successfully brought in Leny Yoro to strengthen their back line and in my opinion they have to recruit two more players to close the gaps in the defense. Erik ten hag only has one more season to turn Manchester United into a strong team because if this season he fails again I think he will be fired.

These teams actually need a midfielder like Kante. But unfortunately, there is no rumor that the teams are interested to sign Kante. You're right, Kante is 33 years old, it is the only matter that makes him very hard to join EPL teams again.

Kante seems having no problem there, he enjoyed his journey in Saudi, he also gets good salary. So why he must return to EPL? 

I don't understand why West Ham intends to bring Kante back. Certainly, Kante plays extremely well at Euro 2024. Kante's performance at Euro 2024 shows that he is not out of time yet. Even though France lost to Spain in the Euro 2024 semi-finals, Kante still showed good form.
I think teams like Arsenal will not need a player over 33 years old like Kante, they have the finances, and they will recruit young players to serve them for a long time. As for Chelsea, that certainly won't happen.

Kante will be suitable for West Ham, they appreciate his talent. And in fact, he is very suitable for the team's economics. Kante is said to receive a salary of up to 50 million euros/year at Al Ittihad, but if Kante wants to return to the EPL, he must be willing to reduce his income many times to return to the top playing field of the Premier League.

Onana also performed poorly last season because he made many blunders and also several defenders frequently suffered injuries which made Manchester United's defense line last season very fragile.

Erik ten hag only has one more season to turn Manchester United into a strong team because if this season he fails again I think he will be fired.

Onana is one of the players who received the most criticism from fans, his performance was far from expectations, and many thought his performance was not as good as when he was in the Inter uniform. Ten Hag decision to recruit Onana was often questioned when Man United suffered defeat, apart from the porous defensive line, many parties regretted Man United management decision to terminate De Gea contract. Onana conceded 65 times in 41 matches in all competitions, I think it's natural that he gets a lot of criticism.

Next season, Man United will play in the Europa League, their match schedule will remain busy, only the competition will be a little easier. Ten Hag looks like he will make a lot of changes to his main squad, because several players will leave this transfer window for various reasons. Apart from that, Ten Hag has now received an additional one season contract, which means he will stay until June 2026. Even though previously many predicted his career would end with his dismissal after Man United finished in 8th place in the Premier League standings.

Al Ittihad looks like to be more competitive in the next season, they won't have the intention to put Kane to transfer list. Kante seems having no problem there, he enjoyed his journey in Saudi, he also gets good salary. So why he must return to EPL?  

Even from the Saudi professional League, kante was able to get international call up to represent his country and he played in many of the games even while other players from real Madrid playing the same position were available. He earns well, and still has a chance to be among France team for the world cup, he doesn't need the pressure from the premier League.

Kante is also old already, although he's still very fit but involving himself in high pressure games like the games in the premier League may make him more susceptible to fresh injuries in this his old age.

[Coyster]

West Ham United want Kante. They're willing to pay a 20 million Pound fee for him. Kante, who is actually happy at Al-Ittihad, is also interested in returning to London. I think it would be great to watch him in the Premier League again.

Ngolo Kante has gotten over his injury woes, remember that his recurrent injuries was one of the reasons Chelsea sold him to Al Ittihad in the first place, but looking at Kante's performances in the Euro 2024, he is clearly back to full fitness.

Having said that, i don't see any reason why Kante should leave Al Ittihad for West Ham, i know it is a move that will bring him back to Europe, but West Ham is not a team that competes for titles and he is making quite a lot of money in Saudi Arabia. If it were to be a big club that is after Kante, then i would say it makes sense for him to return to Europe and challenge for trophies.

[Zaguru12]

Manchester United really need these signings, their defence line last season was a big mess, if not for the effort of mostly Wan Bissaka who really tried as much as he could to restrain from conceding that much than they could have.

Wan Bissaka really stopped Manchester United from conceding too much last season. I Don’t know base on what stats that you think so, but for a player that rarely played much last season I don’t think he did anything spectacular there. The whole defense was poor and even if we were to make exceptions it should be for Dalot who was fit throughout the season and also eventually the player of the season for them and not Wan Bissaka.

It's just that he is still quite young and still has a lot of direction so now it depends on Ten Hag whether he can guide Yoro well or become a failed purchase just like Mount and Amrabat last season.

Yoro is young and definitely Manchester United are gambling on him and it is a good gamble considering that the fees has a huge add ons rather than a straightforward fee. As for Mount last season I disagree with you that he failed. Only players that played much minute can be said to fail. Mount was mostly injured so how did it fail. This season when we will judge him if he stays fit. As for Amrabat he was definitely lucky to fit in early into Ten Hag team but towards the end of the season didn’t we see put a solid performance even in the FA cup? He just doesn’t suit the board notion and he was a loanee

Kante is a very good players and he would definitely impact greatly to west ham and I could understand the reason why he would even want to come back to the premier league and I think because of the fierce competition that is actually happening on the league unlike the Saudi Arabia league the premier league is way off when it comes to competition level and for any thats still want to enjoy football at its fullest the European football experience is far way better.

Finally, my hope is coming true. Kante is having a chance of coming back to the EPL. Westham has told Ittihad to sign Kante for £15 million, but Ittihad rejected it. Now, Westham is increasing their offer to £20 million. There have been no further updates on what Ittihad will do in response to Westham's offer. But, Ittihad will likely reject it again.

Kante has a chance to come back in EPL. But, Ittihad and Westham don't seem to agree. It's because Ittihad asks a very high price for Kante. I think Westham can't afford to pay it.

And again, Chelsea fans are against this transfer stance by Westham.

West Ham is talking for N'Golo Kante from Saudi Al-Ittihad but I don't think it will never happen.

All these deals can go through. We might never know what these clubs are up to at the moment. Westham United have a new Manager in Lopetegui. He will be looking to set up with new faces and a different set of first eleven, so I expect him to bring in names that can help them challenge in the top 6 in the EPL. Kante was a force in the EPL, playing for both Chelsea and Leicester city, winning major titles.

Mctominay to Tottenham? I don’t think Manchester United should let him go. He’s is a very good  squad player.
Another thing people are not looking at is his aerial duel presence, both in defensive and attacking set pieces. If you're letting go of Casemiro...you must keep McTominay. Casemiro, Varane and McTominay are all aerial monsters. That component of the squad cannot be overlooked.

[mamesso]

The transfer is basically not bad, the player can still show a decent level. It feels like despite his age he is only getting better and better, because if you look at his performance dynamics and the number of results, you can't say otherwise, he is really good and he is still at a good level. In the end I think he can adapt well at Milan, he's already familiar with the league and it won't take him long to get used to the style of play

Morata still deserves to be trusted to fill the front line even though he is 31 years old. Last season he managed to score 21 goals for Atletico Madrid in all competitions. Morata will play an important role on the front line with his experience with several different clubs, he will also replace Olivier Giroud, whose contract has just expired with Milan. It seems that Milan is very confident in Morata abilities, he was given a four year contract with the option of a one year extension.
Morata will have no difficulty adapting to the style of play in Serie A because he has previously played for Juventus. He also managed to score 35 goals in 130 Serie A appearances, his sharpness in scoring goals will really help Milan to compete again with Inter Milan, who performed well last season.

[klidex]

Morata still deserves to be trusted to fill the front line even though he is 31 years old.

As he gets older, there is no guarantee that his performance will still be strong in the next season. Every player over 30 years old will have their performance decline, but Milan still has no problem recruiting this player because Milan also used Olivier Giroud until he was 37 years old, so Alvaro Morata is still the being safe at his current age, the most important thing is that he maintains his stamina so he stays fit and doesn't get injured because this will affect his future performance.
Before Atletico Madrid he has good experience playing in Serie A so playing in Milan is not something new for him. He is already used to dealing with the competition there so it will make it easier for him to adapt.

Al-Ittihad does not want to sell Kante because he is an important player in his team's plans going forward, maybe we already know how Kante's performance at the EURO was very impressive so some European teams will be very interested again, but who knows West Ham can recruit with a higher offer.
I want to see Kante return to the Premier League even if it's just joining West Ham, we never know how West Ham's efforts to get Kante, but clearly what I read this new news is that Al-Ittihad will not sell him.

Alvaro Morata has proven his quality when he managed to lead Spain to become Euro champions and it is clear that Alvaro Morata's performance is still quite good so there is nothing to doubt and at 31 years old I think it is still not too old, it is possible for him to make a big contribution bag AC Milan in another 2 or 3 seasons.
AC Milan is indeed home to a lot of experienced players, cheap transfer fees are the reason and that has been the case for a long time so I think Alvaro Morata's choice is quite right, and there is nothing different about it.

Alvaro Morata returns to Italy with high hopes. Even though he is not young anymore but I think that will not be an obstacle for him to reach good achievements at AC Milan. Getting old is often the cause for every player to experience setbacks but, not a little too the players who can actually play better because they have good adaptation and of course very mature experience (Karim Benzema is one of those).

Morata will not have difficulty adapting to Serie A because he had previously played for Juventus as a loan player, and his playing style makes it easy to tune in as he is a versatile striker.

I’m happy with this transfer. But, I hope he doesn’t disappoint me. After I saw his performance with Spain, he had a very offensive style. But he only managed one goal. But, I still feel positive about this transfer.
His statistics below are still showing Morata still deserves it a chance to play in the big club, like AC Milan.



Well, Morata's performance is still very consistent. Some guys have negative opinions about him, but I value him a lot. This is a good decision from AC Milan to recruit him as a new striker. I know people doubted this 31 year old striker. But, stats show reliable data about his performance at Atlético Madrid.
And again, AC Milan signed him for only 13 million euros, which is very worthy with his experience. Morata's journey still continues.
