⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

So Diaby choose to joins Al Ittihad, he's a failed player from Aston Villa, he can't perform like when he was in Bayer Leverkusen. Moving to Al Ittihad is obviously ruining his career, he probably will change his nationally to African country since France is full of star players, he has no chance.
 
Will Benzema leave Al Ittihad? his relationship with Al Ittihad isn't that good and Diaby is actually a striker.

If i am not mistaken Moussa Diaby transfer from Leverkusen to Aston Villa has broke the records as the most expensive player who bought from Aston Villa but unfortunately Moussa Diaby was unable to adapt with Aston Villa and his performance is not consistent Moussa Diaby even last season only able to scores 6 goals in Premier League i think these are poor records considering he was bought from expensive price from Leverkusen and in the term of scores goals Moussa Diaby lost to compete with Ollie Watkins

This summer Aston Villa has successfully to bought young striker from Hull City Jaden Philogene this also make the speculation about Moussa Diaby appears because possibly Jaden Philogene will replace Moussa Diaby position on the team but i thought Moussa Diaby will be stayed at Aston Villa much longer or at least until next season ended and it's quite surprised Aston Villa have decide to sell him to Al Ittihad this summer

I can see Al Ittihad is very active for summer transfer window and probably they want to strengthen their squad because next season they want to compete with Al Nassr and Al Hilal for race title but i assume why Al Ittihad has decide to buy Moussa Diaby from Aston Villa is because they aren't satistifed to Benzema performance of last season so that's why Al Ittihad buy new striker and actually Moussa Diaby still 25 years old so if he want to leave Aston Villa it's not difficult for him to gets new clubs and stayed in Europa but unfortunately he has decide to playing at Saudi Pro League

Trent's future at Liverpool is still ambiguous.    He has only one year left on his current contract. Real Madrid is still interested in him according to Mirror but he is said to have no intention to leave Liverpool: Mirror

Liverpool is also said to be keen on offering a new contract to him soon. However the things is why have they even waited this long?    People can say anything but I believe he is one of the best RBs now. Real Madrid clearly wants a young RB for their future. Trent would be much better than Vazquez and I think he can do better than Carvajal as well. Carvajal has got quite old you know.

Will Benzema leave Al Ittihad? his relationship with Al Ittihad isn't that good and Diaby is actually a striker.

Aston Villa overhauled the players he sold several players as well as bringing in several players including Amadou Onana from Everton for 50M EUR.
Diaby's move to an
 Arab club at such a young age is quite unfortunate because playing in the Premier League is much better, it could be a move to ASton Villa or he will receive a high salary from Al Ittihad.

There are no more rumors that Benzema will leave the club, although in the news Benzema is not so harmonious with his club, it could be that Al Ittihad recruited Diaby to add strength to his attacking line.

Diaby leave or stay did not have a positive impact on the club so there was only one choice left, namely the Saudi Arabian Club. His career was not brilliant so losing him did not make Aston Villa suffer a big loss. Considering that Diaby at Al Ittihad has the opportunity to become Benzema replacement. As is known, although it is not certain that Benzema will return to Europe, Benzema is increasingly not showing his best performance. The alternative taken by Al Ittihad is the right alternative, so that whenever Benzema leaves, they will already have a replacement.

The idea that people moving to the Saudi league is ruining their career should slowly be killed, because there are players who moved to the Saudi league and still have a good career going based on their performance.
Ngolo Kante got international call up to represent France in a major competition even though he is playing in the Saudi Professional league for Al-Ittihad, If Diaby can have a season very remarkable in the Saudi League that he is noticed, Deschamp the French coach may consider him for call-up. The possibilities are slim, but it is still there.

Another talent wasted and the way the Saudi league are getting players from Europe just to promote their league is becoming worrisome because this was how China did some time ago and where are they now? Nowhere to be found, Diaby is good but my major concern is why would Emery let him go, after all he played a big row in getting Aston Villa finishing in the top 4 last campaign and how he's leaving the side, I think the player is not coming back to Europe anytime soon and big Benz can as well leave and some how join any team in Europe which I think is going to be a bit difficult considering his age.

Benzema will not leave and this actually makes Al-Ittihad's attack line much more dangerous. Moussa Diaby is not a striker and he plays as AMF or RWF and I think his arrival will give Al-Ittihad more attack variety. He was very fast and agile so Al-Ittihad really wanted him and managed to get him.

Benzema's bad relationship with Al-Ittihad has been resolved with the presence of his new coach Laurent Blanc who is also French so there will be no more conflict between players and coaches. Moussa Diaby has indeed failed because if he is able to make a good contribution then Aston Villa will keep him and with this we already know that his performance has decreased quite a bit since he was brought in from Leverkusen.

Pep and City have already fully addressed this rumor. It's clear that De Bruyne won't leave City this summer. Pep also emphasizes that City does not want to sell De Bruyne to the Saudi Pro League. It also says that the rumor about De Bruyne going to the Saudi Pro League is a hoax.

In last few days there were serious rumours about the future of the Kevin De Bruyne but now all this ended because Pepe Guardiola and Manchester City management announces they are not talking about any possible transfer of their main midfielder in this season as he is going to complete his contract which is until end of the 2025. Currently as situation is going we are having nothing clear about the possible replacement of this player because most chances Pepe Guardiola will be also not extend his contract as now he is looking for the International job which is going to be another experience for this great coach.

But after the end of the 2025 we are going to have few changes into this club which is going to have big impact on their performance and control in Premier League as well because new coach and new player are going to have their impact this will be good time for few other clubs which are going good changes in this summer for the future.

While other English league teams have recruited several new players, Arsenal just got one defender at the moment, even though if we look at their performance last season, which was very impressive but it can be seen that there are still weaknesses in the depth of the squad when they face a busy schedule, Arsenal actually have several other target players they are targeting right now after they got Calafiori, but so far we haven't seen any active movement from them, they are looking for players who can back up Saka and Declan Rice in the future, although Arsenal actually have a lot of midfielders  but Many of these players cannot be relied on at this time, Partey and Jorginho are experienced players but injuries and old age should be a consideration for Arteta in looking for another midfielder, as well as backup for Saka who continues to be forced to work too hard like last season, apart from wingers and midfielders, center forwards should also be of interest to Arteta at the moment if they want to compete next season in the race for the English league title, if we talk about Nico Williams, I think it will be difficult to get him because so far he has great interest in joining with Barcelona.

Arsenal doesn't seem to be very active in recruiting new players in the transfer market, which actually only has about 1 month left until it closes. Maybe Arsenal is not targeting many new players at the moment. Because they feel they have enough players needed to face next season. I think what needs to be improved by Arsenal is just the mentality of their players who always don't look their best in big leagues like in the UCL. Apart from that, I feel this team is almost perfect. Because even in the Premier League, Arsenal continues to dominate alongside Man City. Some additions may definitely be in the cards but when it comes to Nico Willaims then I'm sure they'll be hard to come by. because it looks like Barcelona will get this player. Reportedly they just have to wait for approval from the player and Barcelona will immediately pay the player's transfer fee. And if we talk about Arsenal's second tier players, their quality is not as good as Man City's. And yes, it could be a bad thing if the main squad player gets injured because the second tier players might not be able to replace him optimally.

Arsenal cannot be too active in the transfer market every off-season, otherwise every time they will have a renewed team, it will be something similar to what is happening in Chelsea now, but this is not very good, because the players will need time and expect good results this season will be difficult. Arsenal has a well-established team, there are no problematic positions, so Artate is not as active on the transfer market as before, Arsenal is preparing for the new season, this is the most important thing now.

Well, I really agree with this because what Arteta has to do now is just need to prepare the existing squad so that it is better prepared for the coming season. The quality of the players and the strategies used by Arteta last season were actually very good. Even Arsenal exceeded my expectations of them. Especially when we saw that they were able to win several matches against Man City last season. I always immediately appreciate what Arteta has done at Arsenal. And I think even though Arsenal didn't hunt for many players this season, this squad actually has what it needs for next season. So what needs to be done is to improve the mentality of the players so they are better prepared for matches in big competitions like the UCL.

You're right though they can't be very active in the transfer market cause their squad seems balanced and rotating the team with numerous new players every season could affect the squad in a case where some new players find it difficult to adapt to into their style of play or sustain early injuries due to pressure and tempo of the Premier League, but then, that doesn't mean they shouldn't strength some areas, this is a team that's made runner up for two seasons straight and would be more focused on winning the EPL next season so they need every area of the squad to be well checked especially in defence and attack, as for Midfield, they're good to go. I love that they added Bologna's Riccardo Calafiori one of the fastest developing defender for his age bracket, he did well in the just concluded Euro's competition and his quality would mean a lot for Arsenal next season, you could imagine the pairing of Saliba and Calafiori or Gabriel and Calafiori, very solid, he'll be having his medical soon and joining the rest of the team in their Pre-Season tour in U.S. Another area I think Arsenal should strengthen is the attacking line, they can't fully depend on Gabriel Jesus the whole season and I read in a news that they're willing to let go of Steven Nketiah if they recieve the right offer for him, which means that they could be in the market for a replacement if Nketiah leaves but I think whether or not he leaves they need to strengthen that position due to Gabriel Jesus's injury issues.

[Litzki1990]

All these are reasons for you to say this but I will assure if it is because of any of these reasons, Arsenal will get the player because I don't think Barcelona will succeed in his deal because their deal is almost a failed one due financial crises in the club; Nevertheless, if the money is much, Arsenal will consider leaving the deal, but signing him will be very good because he will be a good reinforcement in Arsenal attack as he can be a good backup for Bukayo Saka.

You people underrate Barcelona a lot and you over estimate the financial struggles of Barcelona. Barcelona is still a far richer club than Arsenal and also generates far more profits than Arsenal, the reason they struggle financially is simply because of the la liga restrictions where they can spend only a quarter of what they make which is what you may have heard as the "1:4" rule. Every year La liga releases a salary cap for clubs in the league and reduces Barcelona's, this is why they can't pay high salaries and players take a pay cut, it's not because they can't pay those players or sign those big players, but the league won't let them based on the rules.

Speaking of Nico Williams, do you think Barcelona would be so interesting in the player if they don't have the money to sign him? They're even ready to pay his release clause and have agreed personal terms with the player. What Barcelona are waiting for now is for la liga to review their books and see that they can make the signing happen and give the go ahead. I believe Nico Williams will be a Barcelona player soon, it's just a matter of time.

Although there are several other clubs that are also interested in Nico Williams, it looks like Barcelona will get Nico Williams's signature because the player also seems to have a strong desire to join Barcelona. Now it's just a matter of time until Barcelona completes the transfer payment. Barcelona might be even stronger if Nico Williams or even Dani Olmo joined but I don't think that will make them better than Real Madrid, and I think Barcelona will once again be below Real Madrid this season.

Nico Williams is a Spanish footballer and this young footballer has performed well for the Spain team in the latest Euro tournament. Barcelona are rumored to be making a number of transfers this season, so next season we will definitely consider Barcelona as a strong contender with the big teams if these deals go through. Nico Williams is certainly a talented player and Barcelona have found a quality player to sign with their club but whether the deal will ultimately go through is a big question mark. As Barcelona try to land the player, there is competition from other top European clubs for the player, so in the end, the club that spends the most money may end up with the player's place.

Last season when De Bruyne was injured, it was clear that Man City's game had decreased, especially in terms of attacking effectiveness. Even though there are Doku and Foden, De Bruyne presence has not been replaced on the field as one of the best midfielders who is able to create goal opportunities for his friends. Man City is very aware that if they lose De Bruyne next season there will be instability in the midfield. Pep Guardiola is definitely trying to ensure important players like De Bruyne stay a little longer. The 2025 season is a bitter reality because it is not only De Bruyne who is certain to leave, Pep Guardiola also has the same opportunity to leave Man City.

Trent's future at Liverpool is still ambiguous.    He has only one year left on his current contract. Real Madrid is still interested in him according to Mirror but he is said to have no intention to leave Liverpool: Mirror

Let's be positive about Trent's future. Liverpool surely knows that Trent's contract is almost up. There are many rumors that they will extend it. Trent has fully committed to stay even longer in Liverpool. So, we don't need worry about that.

Trent's contract still has one year left. It will be easy to extend it with him. This is because Trent is not keen to leave Liverpool. It takes only a few weeks or months to complete it.

Don't panic. Many speculations appeared, and just ignore it. But, trend is not the only one who enters the 12-months final of contract. Salah and Virgil are also facing the same situation.

Liverpool is also said to be keen on offering a new contract to him soon. However the things is why have they even waited this long?    People can say anything but I believe he is one of the best RBs now.

Trent is loyal to the club. This is apparently one reason why Liverpool is not rushing to extend his contract. Trend is still young enough, and he can still have many years to play in Liverpool. He is still 25 years my friend. Everything will be fine, and i strongly support him to stay.

There have been speculations linking Eberechi Eze to top clubs in the EPL like Manchester United, Manchester city and Arsenal. He has a release clause of about £60m. It’s a lot of money considering that these clubs have players of similar profile in that position. There’s no way he’ll come into these teams and expect to bench the wingers that play in that wing. Arsenal have Martinelli and Trossard that occupies that position, Manchester United have Ganarcho and Marcus Rashford, Doku and Grealish, Foden for Manchester City. He’s a very good player but I don’t know if there are just rumors or they’ll be getting him this summer. Also I think there are trying to link him to clubs because Olise has departed.

Maybe they might come for him in another season towards the expiration of his contract so they can get him cheaply.

26 years old Eberechi Eze is currently target of few clubs with he is doing good job at the Crystal Palace and having good performance for England even we have few clubs but most chances Manchester City which is going to lose their playmaker Kevin De Bruyne in 2025 they will try to place him on this spot which is surely good for them because he is young and can do good in near future for this club.

Having a release clause of £60 Million is no problem for the Manchester City because they are going to have few other businesses in future as well which will give them funds for bringing this player suddenly things are taking wired moves at the Manchester City because we are having few important players are trying to have change of clubs as Ederson is also in rumours for possible transfer even currently nothing is clear, but we can expect things could take changes in few days.

Nothing to worry, Manchester City always sign the right coach since 2009, so I believe they will find the right coach again in case Pep leave them. There's no problem with Manchester City, they're almost a perfect team and the team is rich too, so they can get any player that they want.

Manchester City doesn't like Manchester United where Manchester United is really struggling after Alex Ferguson and Cristiano Ronaldo left them.

Barcelona have announced their first signings of the 2024/25 summer. Pau Victor is a Girona player who was loaned to Barcelona B last season. Pau Victor's good performance last season where he was able to score 20 goals in 39 matches attracted the attention of the main club Barcelona, ​​finally the Barcelona club was willing to make this player permanent and on a contract for 5 years through the 2029 season.

It is not known exactly how much Barcelona spent to recruit this player, but several media outlets say that Barcelona only spent 2.5 million euros to get this player and we just have to wait for Barcelona's next recruits such as Nico Williams and Dani Olmo.

It’s always good to have young talents in the team and it is more like the latest trend in football nowadays to sign players from early stage. Having such stats already in the B team means he has a good starting point and the team would trust this and hope he builds on the momentum when he joins the senior team.

Barcelona are short on finance so they can’t afford to spend so much on players and it’s probably the reason why they are more interested in young players since they won’t cost so much. Olmo and Nico are top targets for Barca currently and definitely they will cost them a lot so they can’t afford to spend more money on other players for the time being until they succeed in signing these two players.

Manchester City doesn't like Manchester United where Manchester United is really struggling after Alex Ferguson and Cristiano Ronaldo left them.

Have you forgotten what happened to Manchester United after Sir Alex Ferguson left?
It won't be easy for another coach to become the successor to Guardiola who has managed to ink gold with Manchester City, perhaps Manchester City will suffer the same fate as Manchester United who are having difficulty finding the right replacement to become Alex Ferguson's successor. The club always hopes for something positive for the club every time they bring in a new coach, but if the coach experiences a bad start then the fans will be angry and they will demand that the club find a new coach.

There are still many great coaches available and they are still actively managing clubs and national teams, but Manchester City has to fight hard to get them because they are still under contract with other clubs. Guardiola is the most successful coach in Manchester City's history, if they are able to bring in another great coach, it might be difficult to achieve the success that Guardiola has achieved.

Pep Guardiola and De Bruyne have 1 year remaining on their contracts with Manchester City and until now there has been no sign that either of them will extend a new contract, Guardiola seems to be starting to think about leaving Manchester City because currently he has won all the domestic titles and the Champions League with Manchester City, apart from that Guardiola has also broken many records including becoming the first coach in the English league to be able to win the English league trophy 4 seasons in a row, so what else should he be looking for now in the Premier League?
In my opinion, the possibility of Guardiola leaving is very big and Manchester City must be able to anticipate this by trying to look at new coach that might be available later.   

Meanwhile, whether De Bruyne will stay at Manchester City next season or not will really depend on the amount of salary offered and also the guarantee of playing in the future, If Manchester City were to cut De Bruyne salary just because of his old of course  he will choose to leave for other team, However, even though Manchester city currently has no intention of selling De Bruyne, but I am sure that he will probably move to Arabia to get a better salary in the future.

Older players will not be retained at Premier League clubs, they usually will not be renewed their contracts considering that their performance has begun to decline, which is the target of many English teams is that they are always looking for talented young players, so there is still a possibility that De Bruyne will leave after his contract expires.
If in Arabia it is certain to get a bigger salary, coupled with a free transfer, it could be that Arab clubs will compete to get him to anchor his team, but I'm sure Al Ittihad will wait until next season.
