⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[mammusu]

Barcelona directors are currently discussing a deal to bring Dani Olmo to Barcelona, ​​a guaranteed €55 million package plus €7 million in add-ons, with a 6-year contract and Dani Olmo has agreed,

Barcelona are now showing their readiness to take La Liga seriously with new ammunition,

we'll see what game Dani Olmo will show in La Liga, if all agreements are met

sumber : FabrizioRomano

To be precise, it was not Dani Olmo who agreed to this transfer but the final stage was fully handled by Leipzig. Surely we still remember the ridiculous offer from Barcelona that had made Leipzig angry and maybe this time Leipzig has changed their mind after there was something that Barcelona could convince to smooth this transfer. From the beginning, Dani Olmo was interested in joining Barcelona but it was delayed because Barcelona was too complicated.

In addition, I am also curious about the mention of "55m euro package guarantee" and is it possible that Barcelona does not have that much money and must make other efforts to be able to generate it? Well, apart from all that, now Dani Olmo can continue his career with Blaugrana and with this we will Barcelona will be much stronger than before.

The previous offer submitted by Barcelona had indeed been rejected by Leipzig because the offer did not make sense for them to accept at this time, so Barcelona had to change the offer including adding quite a large bonus if Barcelona later won the championship trophy, a personal agreement between Dani Olmo and Barcelona actually happened a few weeks ago but Barcelona is waiting for the possibility of recruiting Nico Williams before they make an official offer to Leipzig, previously Barcelona had stated that they had sufficient funds to recruit Nico Williams as the main transfer target this summer, but it seems like Barcelona, ​​Bilbao Athletic and Nico Williams did not find an agreement to realize the transfer and finally made Barcelona shift their target to Dani Olmo, after failing to get Nico Williams of course Barcelona immediately made an offer to Leipzig and reportedly they only needed to complete a few more documents to be able to introduce Dani Olmo to the public Catalan in near time.

News updates related to Osimhen are now starting to rarely come across in the sports news media that I follow. Maybe everyone is starting to get bored with the long drama related to Osimhen in the transfer market. But actually a few days ago I heard that Arsenal was indeed ready to bring in Osimhen. Which means Arsenal will be competing with PSG for this player's signature. Arsenal are even said to have made a bigger offer than PSG. It's just that Arsenal seems to be paying Osimhen a lower salary than what PSG is offering. But I think Arsenal understands that the most important thing is to get Napoli to agree first. Because Arsenal seems to realize that Osimhen will even accept offers from clubs who want to bring him in even though his salary may not be as big as before. But I haven't confirmed whether this news is true or not.

If that's the latest news development, the newspaper media will report all transfer market activities this summer, especially with the informative nature of the news material. I try to assume, if there is no new news related to Osimhen. that's why, news about Osimhen's transfer is not widely reported by many sports media. well, some of the references I refer to still link Osimhen with several Premier League teams. but the one that is currently being linked is Chelsea, as quoted from Fabrizio Romano, so far there has been no change regarding Victor Osimhen's opportunity with Chelsea. although it seems that talks are still ongoing, there has been no concrete change. there is our local news that reports, if Osimhen refuses to join Chelsea. however, I doubt the report. moreover, it does not refer to a fairly well-known sports media as a reference. so too with Paris Saint-Germain, this giant French League club may still be waiting for further developments. moreover, PSG has reached an agreement with the player. however, PSG refused to pay the transfer as Napoli wanted. As for Arsenal, The Gunners are hunting for a striker who can be relied on to score goals. Several names have been linked since last month, so far there have been no concrete steps including Arsenal's offer to Napoli. Well, so far no club is willing to pay the release clause for the Nigerian striker. Interestingly, several reports have reported that Chelsea is offering Lukaku an option. Let's just wait, the closer we get to the end of the transfer window the more exciting it will be.

Speculation about Osimhen seems to be endless at the moment, after PSG previously decided to withdraw because Napoli wanted Kang In Lee as an additional condition for Osimhen's transfer to PSG, but PSG firmly rejected this condition because they still needed Kang In Lee in the squad, a few days ago there was once again the possibility of an agreement for Osimhen loan option between napoli and chelsea, but Osimhen rejected this and he emphasized that he wanted a permanent move and only wanted PSG as a club for him to continue his next career, so Chelsea has now shifted their target to striker Samu Omorodion from Atletico Madrid.

Chelsea withdrawal has actually made Napoli run out of ways to sell Osimhen, but even so, of course Arsenal won't be easy to get Osimhen at this time, because after all Napoli still doesn't want to lower Osimhen price even though it might make Osimhen stay at the club next season, besides that Osimhen high salary request will definitely make Arsenal think twice about recruiting him, even though Arsenal currently need a striker, they still won't be careless in recruiting players who might only make their financial problems swell later, to be honest from the two current strikers this which continues to be linked with Arsenal, namely Osimhen and Gyokeres, It is clear in my opinion that Gyokeres is a better target for them to get than Osimhen.

It has been confirmed that Manchester City has accepted Atletico Madrid offer for the purchase of Julian Alvarez and this is fairly quick agreement because Atletico Madrid themselves immediately gave an amount that matches what Manchester City wanted.
Without much drama in this transfer, it has also shown that Atletico Madrid has directly approached the player and will immediately conduct medical test before officially signing the expected 5-year contract.
Previously, the first offer only reached 70 million euros but was rejected and now they have given an additional 75 million euros and received approval from Manchester City.
Moreover, Julian Alvarez is also fairly great young striker, joining Atletico Madrid will greatly help them in participating in several competitions, especially for La Liga next season.

In the past couple of seasons, Atletico Madrid hasn't been up to what the team used to be ,So there's need for them to step the team a bit so to be able to match shoulders with their major league counterparts Real Madrid and Barcelona this coming season, as well as in the Champions League and Europa Cup competitions.
Manchester City Julian Alvarez is a very young talented player whom I think will fit in properly into Atletico Madrid team's tactical system of play and is a win for the Atletico side.

Julian Alvarez, in my opinion, should have been Manchester City’s main striker long ago. He was undervalued because he was competing with an extraordinary striker like Haaland. If I were Real Madrid, I would have bought Alvarez last year. They achieved all their goals last year, they won the Champions League and La Liga. However, if Alvarez was there, they would have had a more comfortable season. What I mean is that Julian Alvarez is a player who can even play for Real Madrid. I believe he will be very successful at Atletico Madrid.

The Hammers has sealed it, a four year contract deal with the German striker Fullkrug from Borussia Dortmund. This would be the fifth signing West Ham have made and I think it's all in a bid to replace a few of their key players that have left the club. It is interesting how these small clubs in the EPL get to make most of the best signings in this transfer window.  Fullkrug is one striker that's good on the ball and with strength. Having him in the Hammers' squad pairing with Paqueta, Bowen  and Kudus  is a such a good choice.

Osimhen have to force his move out of Napoli because it’s very clear that the club is no more interested in him and may not even utilize him that much next season even if a buyer doesn’t come for him. The idea of selling off a young striker and bringing in an older one makes it very unbelievable to me, but Conte knows best why he’s so interested to sign Lukaku to play for Napoli.

Osimhen striking capability have reduced last season and no club will come to buy him for this price. PSG that showed interest before even wanted the player to reduce salary but I think they didn’t come to an agreement on that and so they back off and stop chasing after him. Chelsea don’t look much interested in this player, so the swap deal may not go through with Lukaku.

I generally do not like it when a player is forced to move out of the club that he is in right now. Because sometimes it turns out to be a flop move. But in this case, it is probably best for Osimhen to actually get out of the club. Because the club is really not interested in selling him. If they actually were interested, they would have already sold him in my opinion. They are keeping a price on his head which is nobody going to pay.

At the same time, they are probably not planning the future with him at the club. So if the player stays it is going to be a big mistake. He should get out while he still can. One bad season might be the start of a downward spiral for the player.

Napoli coach Antonio Conte is not really interested in Osimhen again and that is why he was planning to change him with Lukaku. And as it is, Victor Osimhen is stranded in the transfer window and recently I think Arsenal is also interested in him. The former Liverpool defender Steve Nicola asked Arsenal to sign Victor Osimhen and because Osimhen is leaving Napoli in this summer transfer. But Arsenal has not responded to the recommendation of Nicola. And since Napoli has lost interest on Osimhen then he has to leave the club even though there is no club to sign him yet.

Anyways it's better for the Argentine forward to move to a club where he will be more visible than always keeping him on bench because of Erling Haaland. Julian Alvarez is an experienced forwarder even in the Copa America that Argentina won he made a lot of good impact and was able to score 2 goals for his country in the tournament so it is good that Atletico Madrid have signed him to join their squad. Atletico is good for the young talented footballer and I believe he will exploit more over there than he did at Manchester City and with the fact that the La Liga is becoming more competitive and Atletico Madrid is one of the competitive teams so adding a striker like Julian Alvarez is a perfect decision for the club.

[Coyster]

Julian Alvarez has completed his move to Atletico Madrid from Manchester City, the deal is City's record sale and i think it is great for all parties involved. Alvarez would become a starter in his new club, City get a lot of money from the deal and Atletico Madrid get themselves a brilliant number 9, it is a win-win for all.

That being said, City need a replacement, Haaland is sure to miss games due to injury, so there has to be a backup. Julian was also crucial when KDB injured last season, so with his exit, i think they are short at the moment and they need at least two new players, but i am not sure if they are working on any transfers right now.

I want to see Fulkrug succeed in the Premier League. I think he will perform best with West Ham. He had a good season with Borussia Dortmund, but Dortmund had already put Guirassy on the back burner. By selling him, they not only made a good profit, but also prevented the problems he would have caused when he was on the bench.

Newcastle United is taking Marc Guehi for 70m € from Crystal Palace.
Manchester United needs a midfileder and the name wanted is from PSG -> Ugarte.
Atletico Madrid wants to load 24 to Manchester City in the deal for Julian Alvarez.
Tottenham are making a move for Dominic Solanke release clause is around £65m.

Newcastle during the season before last season had one of the best defense and thanks to that they were able yo qualify for the champions league but last season we all saw how they conceded goals and had Shitty defense due to the number of injuries they had then, in some matches they had to even look towards academy players to fill in Those spaces, so seeing them going for Marc Guehi isn’t much surprising considering how well he played in the euros and helped England to the finals, I definitely knew he would be on a move away from Crystal Palace. It’s a good move by Newcastle but the fee is obviously too high at most a 50m € is ok other fees can be on ad ons.

Manchester United truly need a midfielder to help reduce the dependency on Casemiro, relying on Mac Tomminay definitely didn’t work last season, the club is just still reluctant to sign anyone yet as I read that the move for ugarte has collapsed as they see his valuation by PSG to be too high and also they are yet to sell any of their players to create space for him, Mac Tomminay who was supposed to move has his deal also collapsed as Fulham couldn’t meet united criteria

Atletico Madrid have already agreed to sign Alvarez for 75m € plus 20m ad ons, overall the move is a good one, the boy isn’t going to be a starter for Manchester city as long as Halaand is in the squad with them. The fews though seems too high for me as Manchester city definitely got a huge profit here, I remember them buying him for like 25m then nonetheless it was a good investment. Now let’s see who comes to Manchester City as back up

About time for Tottenham to get a new striker, Solanke isn’t bad as he was a menace at the front for Bournemouth last season, he will be a very good addition to this team

Re:FabrizioRomano

I think yes we all have known about one of the latest news from both parties between Atletico Madrid and Manchester City who have reached a final agreement regarding the sale of Julian Alvarez at a very fantastic price. A very fast agreement from both parties, there was no delay whatsoever where Atletico Madrid immediately fulfilled Manchester City's wishes regarding the price, and I am sure that one of the reasons why Atletico Madrid did not make any delays regarding the price desired by Manchester City is because they already know about the performance of this player, where Julian Alvarez is a player who has made a big contribution to Manchester City's success in winning various trophies since he was there. So maybe Atletico Madrid prefers to move quickly in this hunt.

On the other hand, this is also a big advantage for Manchester City, they broke the sales record, because previously Pep Guardiola brought Julian Alvarez for only 14 million euros from River Plate and now sells him for a fantastic price without experiencing any problems in the agreement.

[ginsan]

I thought it is 82 million Euros according to Sky sports, anyways it's better for the Argentine forward to move to a club where he will be more visible than always keeping him on bench because of Erling Haaland. Julian Alvarez is an experienced forwarder even in the Copa America that Argentina won he made a lot of good impact and was able to score 2 goals for his country in the tournament so it is good that Atletico Madrid have signed him to join their squad.

Secretly Atletico Madrid managed to complete their new transfer by successfully bringing in Julian Alvarez in this transfer market. An agreement has been made and this season, Alvarez will be the spearhead of Atletico Madrid. Alvaro Morata's departure was successfully closed with the arrival of Alvarez. One side, Manchester City managed to reap big profits because as said, the complete package reached €95 million and that is quite a fantastic price.

On the other hand, this season's La Liga will be more interesting because Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid have all improved big enough to compete for the trophy this season. But unfortunately for Girona they instead released Dovbyk to Roma.

Atletico Madrid took a bold step by paying Julian Alvarez release clause from Man City for 82 million pounds, an investment that broke the club transfer record. Man City eventually let the Argentine striker leave, and so far there have been no rumors that Pep Guardiola will look for a new player as a cover for Halaand. Julian Alvarez wants a regular place in the first team squad, and Pep Guardiola cannot guarantee that, it seems that is the main reason why this transfer was realized. Of course this is a move that is beneficial for both parties, and Julian Alvarez is planned to be plotted as the main striker after Atletico Madrid released Moratta to Milan.

The competition for a regular place in Pep Guardiola first team is very tight, so it seems reasonable for Julian Alvarez to choose to leave, because it is impossible for Pep Guardiola to reserve Halaand. With the many competitions that Man City will be participating in next season, it seems that they will look for new players again, as a rotation option if Halaand is injured. However, there is a possibility that Pep Guardiola will also maximize the players who are already available, we will see how Man City management responds to it.

Barcelona directors are currently discussing a deal to bring Dani Olmo to Barcelona, ​​a guaranteed €55 million package plus €7 million in add-ons, with a 6-year contract and Dani Olmo has agreed,

Barcelona are now showing their readiness to take La Liga seriously with new ammunition,

we'll see what game Dani Olmo will show in La Liga, if all agreements are met

sumber : FabrizioRomano

With the previous ridiculous offer of course they also have to be serious like this even though the financial condition is not too possible because it cannot be denied that until now Barcelona is still in trouble from a financial point of view.
Now that they've got Dani Olmo in line with Flick's wishes, who prefers Dani Olmo to Nico Williams, I think it's a good addition to their midfield, especially since Dani Olmo can also play a flexible role where he can be an attacking midfielder or a winger.

At least although Gavi won't be able to play due to his ACL which is still healing Dani Olmo could be a good option for Barcelona's line-up later on as they're likely to stick with a 4-3-3 formation where Gundogan, Pedri, De Jong and Dani Olmo will take turns in midfield or maybe they could use Dani Olmo, Lewandowski and Dani Olmo to play.

[BABY SHOES]

Without much drama in this transfer, it has also shown that Atletico Madrid has directly approached the player and will immediately conduct medical test before officially signing the expected 5-year contract.

Really? it's crazy.

I thought that Alvarez will replace De Bruyne as he's getting old, but if they want to sell Alvarez, this mean it's either new player or Foden will play in attacking midfield position. 75 Million Euros for Alvarez is cheap since it's below his market value.

Atletico Madrid have sign Le Normand, Sorloth and the next one is Alvarez, Atletico Madrid might can give a fight in Champions League.

Alvarez started arguing with Guardiola in absentia and after the Copa America he said he wanted more time in the main squad and Guardiola doesn't like to be under pressure, in fact even Haaland can sit on the bench if Guardiola so chooses. So Alvarez had no choice but to leave, because Guardiola would have benched him anyway for his attitude towards the club and the rest of the players.

Besides, it's a great deal for City, because they bought Alvarez for 14 million and are selling him for 70+25 and his price has gone up several times in a couple of years.

That's the problem; I read the news a few days ago that Alvarez and Pep Guardiola have a bit of tension and maybe this is the demand from Julian Alvarez to play full-time so there is no other way but to leave Manchester City.
This is a clear benefit for Manchester City because they got a lot of money from the sale of Alvarez.
He may be happy to move to Atletico Madrid because he will play full time.
Actually Manchester City will not be short of players after Alvarez leaves there are still replacement players.

[Amphenomenon]

Newcastle United is taking Marc Guehi for 70m € from Crystal Palace.

This is actually a good move for Newcastle though the price seems quite high but what can I say, he is an English player but this doesn't the fact that this guy is still a good buy from the fact that he as been doing these past seasons, we can say Chelsea really lost a gem here especially from the fact that they have suffered defensive woes these past season.

Manchester United needs a midfileder and the name wanted is from PSG -> Ugarte.

I guessed Man United might be shifting their interest to De Jong since it seems like Barca want him out because of his wages, while  man united interest in Ugarte is slowing dying from the fee PSG are asking for him, so I think they are shifting their interest to De Jong since like they already offer Anthony and some fee to Barca for De Jong which they obviously rejected.

I think Atletico Madrid signing Alvarez will be their best signing this season though the price is quite huge but it's expected for players of his calibre though I hope he succeeds well at Atletico Madrid

Tottenham are making a move for Dominic Solanke release clause is around £65m.

Solanke as always been a talent even from his days at Chelsea to Liverpool and now Bournemouth he has been impressive especially last season though I wonder if this big money move may not affect his performance if Spurs decided to pay this fee for him, he might not be able to do well with the pressure which has affected some youngsters

[Leviathan.007]

There is some news about Sancho the player from Manchester United who had some problems with Ten Hag and he couldn't have a good time there since there was a bad relationship between Ten Hag and Sancho which was the main reason for this player to leave Manchester United for another team.
Now it seems PSG sent him an offer and they are ready to hire this player while according to some news, he was about to stay in Manchester United for another season.

Barcelona directors are currently discussing a deal to bring Dani Olmo to Barcelona, ​​a guaranteed €55 million package plus €7 million in add-ons, with a 6-year contract and Dani Olmo has agreed,

Finally Barcelona wants to pay the minimum price demanded by Leipzig. As we know Barcelona already made an offer in the past but it is still below the minimum price set by Leipzig, Leipzig only considers to sell Dani Olmo if Barcelona wants to pay €60 million. Now, Barcelona agrees to pay  €55 million + €7 million, it is above €60 million (total €62 million). However, Dani Olmo deserves to have a value €60 million+ but I'm just curious about his physical. As far as I know, Dani Olmo often got injury for a long time. Can Barcelona to give him a special treatment to maintain his physical strength?

Dani Olmo injury history

Barcelona are now showing their readiness to take La Liga seriously with new ammunition,

I don't understand why you claim this. If Barcelona is serious, they must prepare their squad with more new players. So far, Barcelona only signed 1 player from other teams (Pau Víctor). I know we can argue about the quality of this player, but 1-2 players are unlikely to bring very significant impact the the performance of the whole teams, especially if it is average players only. Please check again Barcelona transfer history!

I was surprised to see only 75 million for this transfer, after all, Alvarez is a great striker, a World Champion, young and it is difficult to say whether he has any shortcomings. But this is not the full amount, taking into account the bonuses, City will receive 95 million for this transfer. It is obvious that at Atletico he will always be in the starting lineup and will definitely not be in the shadow of Haaland, a great development for La Liga, it will be interesting to see how much stronger the club becomes in the coming season.
