⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Oluwa-btc]

One of the odd things this season for me is Liverpool's links with Kubo. ECHO says that this talk is premature instead of fake news[1], so either the plan exists but they don't do anything concrete about it or they just scrapped it and looked for other players if this were to be believed. I'm unsurprised if an agent pushes this rumor to increase Kubo's values. Anyway, they are very quiet in this transfer window with so many rumours suggesting more players want to exit the club instead. Who knows what they will do next season?

Why do they even want Kubo? They still have players like Cody Gakpo and even Luiz Diaz wanting to stay and not to forget Diogo Jota. I'm beginning to think about it the say way with you right now.
I don't think they need that lad and even if they do, don't they need to sell a player before h can successfully come into the squad?

Liverpool should focus on getting a younger defender, maybe with Matip leaving they'll have to replace him or for the Injury prone frenchman Konate.
Both Virgil Van Dijk and Alexander Arnold have been reported to be interested in extending the contract they have with the club ahead.

I felt like this was a good time to finally cash out big from the sale of Kevin De Bruyne, but then, Manchester City and the board do not have such plans for him already. Another months with Injury will definitely affect his form likewise valuation.

There are some news here that Fabrizio has debunked as not concrete at the moment, although his comments aren’t ultimatum but he does gets facts compare to the other journalists.

Manchester city going for Eberechi Eze is not that too shocking because the player in question has developed over the years as one of the deadliest wingers in the premier league, so city interest is genuine but I will say it is coming at wrong timing, city have just signed Savio who plays on the left also, they also have Jack Grealish and Jeremy Doku playing through that Wing so I trust that any signing on that wing will require one of the current players leaving.

Al-Ittihad interest in De Bruyne might be because of the his desire to one day play in league but I don’t think this is the right time for the player to depart.

Manchester city move for Gianluigi Donnarumma isn’t concrete at the moment even if Ederson leaves Manchester city are rumored to promote their second goalkeeper Ortega as first choice for the moment, also the Ederson departure is also not yet confirmed because of the price tag city hangs on his head.

Jadon Sancho is someone that looks like the kind of player that suits PSG pattern, with Manchester United looking to sign PSG Urgate and they offered Sancho to the club in the process

It is very unlikely to see Kelvin retire at Manchester City, though that's what many fans would want but the club has this policy of letting old players go. But Kelvin is a legend and I'm happy that Pep Guardiola has now confirmed that he is not leaving this season. I don't think the Etihad faithfuls are ready to let their playmaker leave just like that, but his reign at Manchester City might be coming to an end after this coming season. Manchester City should try as much as possible to get a replacement for him before he finally leaves, but it will be difficult to get a perfect replacement for Kelvin because he is an exceptional player.

What the kelvin has done for the Manchester city it will be unforgettable for them because the guy is a great player he lead Manchester city to achieve so many of goals, even though they want to find achievement they will never get who can hold that same position like kelvin. But it might possible that it will know leave this season again so that him can be with them and add more years with Manchester City, how sure are you that Manchester City might come an end after this season or is it because you hard that kelvin is about to leave the Manchester City.

He has been playing for Manchester City for nine years. That's why De Bruyne became one of the symbolic names of the team. Everyone will be saddened by his departure from the team. Of course, this is football, some players will leave and some will come. Modric and De Bruyne are players whose loyalty to their teams is unquestionable. He has many successes at Manchester City. He has been running for this team since he was 24 years old. I think he deserves to quit football in this team. I hope he makes it happen.

Sancho can be successful at Paris Saint-Germain. He seems to have had a good season at Borussia Dortmund. We know you don't enjoy being at Manchester United. He doesn't get along with the coach either. Paris Saint-Germain could be a new start for him and is also a team with which he can have success statistically. I don't think Donnarumma will leave Paris Saint-Germain. If he leaves, he can of course go to Manchester City.

Kevin has defended Manchester City for 9 seasons and this season is Kevin's 10th season with Manchester City. In terms of achievements, of course he has achieved everything at every level and that is his greatness. In this transfer market, of course, many media have linked Kevin with Saudi Arabian clubs such as Al Ittihad, but the rumors are not strong because Pep Guardiola has said that Manchester City will not sell Kevin De Bruyne. Kevin de Bruyne is also a legend in Manchester City because he has presented many trophies for Manchester City.

Last season his career was quite down due to the injury he suffered, this season of course he is Pep Guardiola's mainstay because Kevin De Bruyne is fit again and ready to give his best. I am one of Kevin's fans because he is very skilled at long distance kicks and I really like him and hope he can find his best form this season.

[Nheer]

De Bruyne remains in City as it has been confirmed today. It is a big relief for City for them to keep De Bruyne back in the club because he is a key player and like the engine room to City. If his presence is not in the field, it use to be a problem for City because his role is a very important one. I could remember last season that he went on injury, the club couldn't be in their best performance and Haaland hardly score during De Bruyne absence.

I was expecting him to join Saudi Arabia league but it seems we will have to wait an extra year or more to see that happen so It is a big relief for Guardiola and City entirely because i am not sure if it will be easy for them to find a good replacement for him in such a short period. He is an important player and winning him over for another season is a huge boost to them all especially Haaland who needs his services to maintain his goal scoring ability. He is getting old now and so they should be expecting more injuries from him that means they will have to manage him properly to avoid injuries.

[Coyster]

Manchester City maybe do a move for Gianluigi Donnarumma.

That deal is never going to happen this summer, as confirmed by Fabrizio Romano, even if City's first choice goalkeeper Ederson eventually leaves for Saudi Arabia, City wil only sign a backup goalkeeper, as they are going to hand over first choice duties to the current second choice goalkeeper, Stefan Ortega. That is the right thing to do IMO, he has done enough to earn the trust of the club, and he would be elated if Ederson leaves.

[Ndabagi01]

Al-Ittihad interest in De Bruyne might be because of the his desire to one day play in league but I don’t think this is the right time for the player to depart.

Pep Guardiola still wants Kevin De Bruyne to continue with them, so there is a big likelihood that he won’t be joining any other club this transfer window and could stay till his contract expires before think of leaving.

Manchester city move for Gianluigi Donnarumma isn’t concrete at the moment even if Ederson leaves Manchester city are rumored to promote their second goalkeeper Ortega as first choice for the moment, also the Ederson departure is also not yet confirmed because of the price tag city hangs on his head.

Ederson is a great choice for Manchester City, I don’t know why he’ll want to leave the team and everything is moving smoothly like his service is no longer required in the club again. What could have caused him to want to leave the club when if he stays, he’ll still be the first choice goalkeeper for Manchester City.

Jadon Sancho is someone that looks like the kind of player that suits PSG pattern, with Manchester United looking to sign PSG Urgate and they offered Sancho to the club in the process

This is a nice pick by Paris Saint German, for the player they want, I think a swap deal will work here more perfectly. Jadon Sancho will not even be utilized in the next season by Eric Ten Hag, it’s better he comes to term with them and join them, I think he’ll have more playing time at PSG than he’ll have at Manchester United next season.

[TelolettOm]

I think it is not a rumor, there are many media reporting the same issue. De Bruyne can leave Man City because he still can't get a contract extension, he is also getting old. Moreover, Man City seems to look for a younger attacking midfielder. It indicates Man City no longer relying on De Bruyne. It is quite surprising that Man City still didn't extend De Bruyne's contract. His contract will be over soon in June 30, 2025.

For a fact, Manchester City are yet to release any official statement confirming that one of the club's best players of all time Kelvin De Bruyne will leave the club this summer but considering the reports we've seen and read so far about the future of the Belgian, I think it's almost certain that Kelvin De Bruyne will leave Manchester City this summer.

This is very interesting.
Even after so many rumors circulating, in the end, Pep Guardiola spoke up. Based on his statement a few hours ago, Guardiola said that de Bruyne would not leave Man City, at least he had officially dismissed rumors regarding de Bruyne leaving the club. He clearly said that Kevin will not be leaving. With this, the rumors regarding de Bruyne should begin to subside.

Currently, the rumors related to Arda Guler are getting stronger. After finally Leverkusen and AC Milan started to enter into loan negotiations for the 19 year old player. Yes, Real Madrid will not sell the Right Winger. However, the loan issue is already quite big and this makes sense for the many hours he has to spend competing, to develop a better career at his new loan club. because if he continues to be at Real Madrid, it is possible that he will be on the bench more often, especially because of Kylian Mbappe and Endrick.

[SatoPrincess]

Actually, I still want to see Kevin De Bruyne still at the Etihad in the next season because I think he still has good performance to play with Manchester City.
Last season we didn't see Kevin De Bruyne from the start of the season because he had a long injury so I was also dissatisfied with not seeing his performance from the start, but if you look at the current situation I think Man City should consider selling this player this year because otherwise they will lose Kevin De Bruyne next season for free, I know Kevin De Bruyne is a very important player for Man City but his contract at the club only has the remaining season for next season and of course Man City doesn't want to suffer a loss but if they want to keep Kevin de Bruyne has one more season left, at least the club can extend his contract until 2026 and then next season he will be sold to a club that is interested in him.


Seeing the latest news on Twitter, Pep Guardiola stated that Kevin De Bruyne will not leave Man City this summer, so it is clear that Kevin De Bruyne's arrival in Saudi Arabia is just a rumor. But we don't know if he spend next season, it might be his last season at Man City.

Honestly, I was already warming up to the fact that Manchester City will be slightly weaker next season after hearing of his departure. Kevin Debruyne was already becoming a peripheral figure in that Manchester City team, they may actually be stronger without him provided that his replacement is fit & at least 70% as talented. He didn’t feature in quite an amount of games last season and even days he featured and wasn’t playing well city still coped.
They always have something up their sleeves. So expecting them to be weak at any time is like expecting a mountain to suddenly become a valley. I already foresaw Foden taking up the mantle from him & becoming more central to their plans. Let's see how the transfer window goes for every team.

Sorry we had your hopes up Mr.Right. It seems KDB is going to remain in Manchester City after all. I’m assuming you’re an Arsenal fan. You guys really need a weak point in Manchester City armor in order to have a clear shot at the premier league title next season and break City’s jinx. Arsenal were very close to winning the league last season so I know Arsenal fans will be optimistic about winning the EPL when the season starts.

Pep Guardiola said there is about an 85, 90, 95% chance that Manchester City will still feature the same squad. He also acknowledged that until the transfer window ends, anything is possible. The chances might be small, but Kevin De Bruyne might still leave Etihad. He had been the leading force behind the success of City and his departure will leave a vacuum that cannot be filled easily. For other Premiership clubs to have hope of dethroning City, de Bruyne would have to leave. I just hope Al Ittihad will give him an offer that will be difficult to resist. We don't want the EPL to be like the French League, we want a new champion this season.

He is getting old now and so they should be expecting more injuries from him that means they will have to manage him properly to avoid injuries.

If Man City can find a reliable playmaker like De Bruyne in the transfer window, perhaps Pep Guardiola will let him leave for the Saudi Pro League to join Al Ittihad. But Pep Guardiola understands very well that Man City will experience ups and downs in performance if they let De Bruyne leave, so it makes sense that they try to keep De Bruyne, even though he is 33 years old. We can refer to Man City performance last season when De Bruyne was absent due to injury, they had difficulty winning, and this condition is very worrying. I think De Bruyne will still be relied on by Pep Guardiola next season, his calmness and creativity are really needed by other players.

Meanwhile, it is time for Man City to take steps to find someone who can replace De Bruyne in the future, because sooner or later De Bruyne will eventually leave too. Dani Olmo is reportedly included in Pep Guardiola transfer plans, and perhaps the Spanish international will be used as a replacement for De Bruyne in the future. I think De Bruyne is still capable of making a contribution for the next season or two, before he actually goes to the Saudi League. Fans should be grateful when De Bruyne chooses to stay, because otherwise Man City will be able to be beaten by Arsenal in the hunt for the Premier League trophy next season.

While there are rumors that Guardiola wants to sign Donnaruma and if he succeeds, it will be a great move, because from the confident game of the goalkeeper many depends, and Donnaruma essentially took the Italian national team out of the group, his confident game at Euro 2024.

Yes this will be so good for Manchester City to bring the Italian spider Gianluigi Donnarumma to the club. Because currently he is too young his performance is just absolutely superb. Gianluigi Donnarumma is 25 years old and their current contract will be expire in 2026. So it would be a nice move if they had done it successfully. Earlier, Manchester City had an opportunity to sign Gianluigi Donnarumma, but the club rejected it. In the previous deal, PSG wanted to do a swap deal in which they offered Gianluigi Donnarumma and Marco Verratti to sign Bernardo Silva in 2023. But Manchester City rejected it. So now it is the best opportunity to sign Gianluigi Donnarumma because the current goalkeeper of Manchester City has more chances to move to Saudi Arabia because many clubs are interested in the Saudi Arabia leagues.

If I were Donnarumma you would immediately go to City, a team made to win and tailor-made for him too in my opinion with an excellent defensive department that can help a goalkeeper who in my opinion is incredible, as we know in Italy it is an excellent school for goalkeepers but this boy he is a real phenomenon just look at his performances with Italy he was clearly the best of the team who saved the games save after save so he would be an excellent signing for them

That only happens if the rumor about Ederson leaving City is true. I'm glad to see that Pep Guardiola has rejected it. He also addressed this rumor.

Moving to City will guarantee Donnarumma the major trophies. This is instead of staying at PSG. I still wonder where this news is coming from. Ederson has not yet finalized the deal with the Saudi Pro League, and it's too early to say he is gonna leave City.

Who knows if Ederson can do a U-turn for this. Pep can still have Ortega on his line up, if Ederson decides to leave the club.

Another move from the Premier League and this time that's from Aston Villa. it seems Amadou Onana the player of Everton joined Aston Villa.
Since Aston Villa is going to be in the next Champions League and this will be harder for them, they want to improve the team and Amadou Onana is a good step forward for them. Amadou Onana played in 37 games for Everton and had a good performance there.
So far Everton has two other midfielders for this season.

Fabrizio Romano has confirmed reports from France that Victor Osimhen’s move to PSG is currently on hold.

There was the big debate surrounding this transfer news over whether Victor Osimhen leaving Napoli (Serie A) to PSG (French Ligue 1) would be a downgrade for Victor Osimhen. Their argument being that the top 5 leagues in Europe are the EPL, Serie A,  La liga, Bundesliga, and French Ligue 1 in that order respectively. In other words, the Serie A is a a bigger league than the French Ligue 1. But  PSG in recent years is a bigger club than Napoli. Victor Osimhen has higher chance to win more trophies in PSG and might have a shot at the Champions league.

Victor Osimhen has said in the past that it is his dream to play in the premier league. Which EPL team do you think will be looking for the player’s signature in the transfer window?

Damn Villa is cooking it again, and Emery will be cooking in the Premier League soon with his best line up. Villa is lining up lots of good midfielders. Onana, Barkley, and Philo are definitely great midfielders owned by Aston Villa. Selling Onana within the Prem for 50 mil seems too cheap for Everton. He's only 22 and a physical beast.

Onana's got everything that is needed to be a top midfield player. His attitude is first-class. He’s strong. He can play, pass, and score goals. I can't deny that Emery is smart in this transfer window.

It seems villa is trying to go from being the shortest team in the league to be the tallest one in the premier league.

Excuse my ignorance, but is this transfer to PSG already correct?
Osimhen aroused the interest of several Premier League clubs and in fact PSG was the team that showed interest in the deal and opened talks with the athlete's agents.

However, to sell Osimhen, Napoli were asking for a price of 90 to 120 million euros and as far as I know the talks between Osimhen and the French club are at a standstill, or am I wrong?

With the transfer window approaching its final stretch, Osimhen has already considered several solutions for his future and some of the most viable alternatives were even the Saudi market for 2024/2025 and even clubs in the Middle East were ruled out if not have an official proposal from PSG soon.

What the kelvin has done for the Manchester city it will be unforgettable for them because the guy is a great player he lead Manchester city to achieve so many of goals, even though they want to find achievement they will never get who can hold that same position like kelvin. But it might possible that it will know leave this season again so that him can be with them and add more years with Manchester City, how sure are you that Manchester City might come an end after this season or is it because you hard that kelvin is about to leave the Manchester City.

Maybe you mean Kevin De Bruyne, not Kelvin. He is a player who can be a differentiator in the Manchester City squad, when he was injured, they had difficulty scoring goals because there was very little ball flow coming into the opponent's defense. Haaland was also really spoiled by the beautiful passes that came from him, some of which managed to become goals that made it easier for Manchester City to win. He is still able to play at a high level and his performance is still very consistent. Guardiola really wants him to stay at Manchester City because he has been a key player with good statistics.

He deserves to be honored at Manchester City for his contribution so far, the legend of Manchester City deserves to be pinned on him because he has played an important role in Manchester City success. Manchester City performance will not decline too much if he decides to go to another club because they still have another great midfielder like Rodri, but his presence is still very much needed and can make Manchester City game more interesting.

Paris St-Germain want Jadon Sancho.

Source: BBC

Sancho can be successful at Paris Saint-Germain. He seems to have had a good season at Borussia Dortmund. We know you don't enjoy being at Manchester United. He doesn't get along with the coach either. Paris Saint-Germain could be a new start for him and is also a team with which he can have success statistically. I don't think Donnarumma will leave Paris Saint-Germain. If he leaves, he can of course go to Manchester City.

While he was loaned back to Dortmund last season, Sancho regained his good performance and currently it is not only PSG who are interested in this player, there is also Juventus, but it seems that Juventus will not be able to fulfill the requirements requested by Man United, and currently PSG and PSG are still prioritizing him. It seems that Sancho is very open to the offer made by PSG but it all depends on Man United, because his performance last season improved and his dispute with the coach has also ended so Sancho staying is also still open and it seems that Man United will not sell this player in this transfer Ten Hag wants to see him play this season, especially as Man United now needs a winger so it won't be easy for them to let go of Sancho.

Yes, it seems that Man City will bring Donnarumma into their squad because currently Enderson is very interested in Saudi clubs and they have made a high offer for the player, so it seems that Man City will monitor Donnarumma to replace Enderson.
