⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Sexylizzy2813]

I didn't expect Manchester City to actually release their star player Julian Alvarez this summer to Spanish club Atletico Madrid with a transfer agreement of 75 million euros with an additional 20 million euros I mean 95 million euros is a very large amount but Atletico Madrid agreed to Man City's wishes because I saw Atletico Madrid really wanted this player.
Julian Alvarez is one of Man City's crucial players who is actually a valuable asset just like Phill Foden, Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne but it seems that the player wants to try a new challenge playing in the Spanish Laliga until finally he is willing to leave I think he can be Atletico Madrid's mainstay next season.

To be frank with you, Man City never gave this player the much time he needed that was the main reason he left the side and if you check out this very player he deserves more than what Haaland is getting base on playing time, he (Alvarez) can score goals, hustle to get the ball and his contribution to the team is epic, not to talk of his free kick ability, with all these, why on earth is he not suppose to start always ahead of Haaland? Pep Guardiola is the reason this player left and putting Mbappe, Victor Osimhen and Haaland together he is the best amongst the 3 players I mentioned but my problem is the club that got him.
ATM is like a military team, they are not that flexible and their style of play has always been a particular pattern which is defend defend and I don't think it will match with this player Alvarez. He can manage but I'd prefer if clubs like Arsenal or even the Red Devils got him, because they seem to play a little bit better if not better than Atletico Madrid but I'm not writing them off yet, there could be a sudden change in the way they play, let's find out next season and from all that went down it would be a loss to Manchester City because the just let go a much better player.

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

Dani Olmo is a great signing. I appreciate their move.    I wish they were able to sign Williams as well but it seems much less realistic from now on even if he announces his desire to sign for them. Now the thing I'm curious about his at what position Olmo is going to play there. I mean normally his natural position is AM you know.

However Barcelona prefer a 4-3-3 formation without an AM. As Olmo can play as a winger too, maybe we can see him on the left wing. It would be better than playing as CM considering potential big score contribution by him.

Barcelona got a great deal on Dani Olmo. Olmo is a better player than Nico Williams because he can play anywhere on the front line. This makes him a useful tool against strong teams like Real Madrid. This player can also play as a wide or even a false nine. He's not just an attacking midfielder. This flexibility is very important for a club that is having money problems but still needs to stay ahead of the competition

Getting Olmo until 2030 isn't just a deal; it's an investment in a player who can do a lot of different things. He's Flick's secret weapon; a player whose uncertainty could make or break El Clasico. Even though Mbappe plays for Real Madrid, Olmo is a strategic tool for Barcelona. He can break down defences and make things chaotic on the pitch

It's really sad that Olmo joined a team that near of bankruptcy and Barcelona is not the strongest team, they're struggle to win La Liga and will never win Champions League anymore. The 6 years contract is too long, I believe Olmo will regret to sign this contract because he's already 26 years old, it means he need to wait till 32 years old if he want to join other team.

The thing is Barcelona never want to sell their players at cheap, they always demand ridiculous fees.

One by one Manchester City has released their talented young players to other teams, Previously, Manchester City released Palmer to Chelsea  which is actually Manchester City rival club in the english league, Releasing Palmer last season was a big mistake in my opinion because currently Palmer  has developing very well in Chelsea, as well as Julian Alvarez, who will most likely also develop rapidly at Atletico Madrid in the future.

So far, Julian Alvarez has continued to be a super sub in Manchester and has been able to show quite good performances although he has often come on as a substitute, Atletico Madrid see bright prospects in Julian Alvarez in future so make they don't hesitate to buy Alvarez with their current record of expensive purchases, indeed, Alvarez is a crucial player, but unfortunately he hasn't had much time to get the opportunity to play in  Manchester City so far and made him choose to leave.

Saying that you didn't expect Manchester City to allow Julian Alvarez leave the club this summer is surprising to me. For a striker with the Alvarez's qualities, keeping him in a club where he'll be playing second fiddle to Erling Haaland is same as limiting him from reaching the peak of is potentials. I'm very happy that Argentina international have joined Atletico Madrid where he'll get the chance of becoming their point man, getting limitless playing time and scoring as many goals as possible. Good move for Julian Alvarez.

[Oluwa-btc]

They're take it one step at a time. Bringing back a one time La Ma Sia product is such a good one. They did whatever they had to do to see him returning. This is currently a done deal as we're talking and he has passed his Barcelona medical fully. I watched him closely during the European Championship, I'm well aware of his capabilities and what he brings into Barcelona.

He will have a good link with Robert Lewandoski which was lacking last season. Hansi Flick is a tactical genius, he knows how to bring the best outta Robert Lewandoski.
Next season, I'm not so sure of Barcelona dominating in La Liga, but I'm sure they'll be a great challenge unlike last season. One more player to see joining would be Nico Williams next season. I love how Barcelona prepare Spainish players for the next Fifa World Cup Competition.

Haaland is just way better than him and is going to be 1st choice for Pep so yeah he wont really get that spot that he wants. As a striker, he needs all the playtime that he could get although he is probably like top 5 players on Manchester City last season with decent playtime.

The shocking part for me is that not really about him leaving because I kinda predicted that he would leave anytime sooner but the most shocking part is that City would let him go without signing a replace for him yet. So far aside from Savinho, they havent sign anyone else. They got the money, they could pretty much sign anyone that they want at this point so its kinda shocking

The decision has been made, now he is officially a Barcelona player, whatever the consequences are he is ready to bear if something unexpected happens in the future. Barcelona is trying to bounce back after failing to win a trophy last season, I think the actions taken by Barcelona are very reasonable because they want to return to glory in La Liga and the Champions League. As long as Barcelona qualify for the Champions League, they still have a chance to win the trophy as long as they are able to show their best performance.

It's not that Barcelona never sells players at low prices, Griezmann was sold to Atletico for a bargain price and several other players were also released on free transfers. Maintaining the selling value is very reasonable for a club to do, Bilbao also did the same thing when an offer came for Nico William.

Brighton wants free agent Mats Hummels 35 years old.
Manchester United's is interested in  Sander Berge, price is 30m from Burnley.
Manchester United may also go for Youssouf Fofana, Milan is also on the player.
Erik ten Hag may want Sofyan Amrabat from Fiorentina.

When Atletico Madrid sealed this Alvarez deal, I asked myself who can Manchester City buy to replace Alvarez right now? If Haaland gets an ACL and he's out till March, what would happen?

Then, I felt like If Manchester city doesn’t find a quality back up striker this summer, they will go with what they have. They are already stacked on the attack and on the wings.

Pep can toy with playing without a striker if Haaland is not available. He has so many attackers to play with in the team. He has done it before when he moved Gabriel Jesus to the wing.

Well, this question is also quite interesting to follow. But with the profit they got from the sale of Alvarez I don't think it will be difficult for Manchester City to find a suitable replacement for Alvarez's place. The only problem is that it will be difficult to find a player who is truly equal in quality to Alvarez. Although many potential players have been mentioned who could replace Alvarez in this transfer market. For example, even Joao Felix from Atletico Madrid himself. But yes, in terms of quality, I think Alvarez is difficult to replace. But actually currently there is a player who is quite striking and he performed extraordinary last season. It's just that this player hasn't played at a big club yet. He is Viktor Gyokeres. I feel this player has the potential to become a great player when he is given the opportunity to come to a big club like Manchester City.

I think right now Manchester City can hope that the striker that they have, Haaland, the main striker of Manchester City does not get injured. Because if he does get injured, it is going to be a hard job for Manchester City to find a replacement for him. we are talking about how hard it is to find a quality striker to replace Alvarez. Imagine how hard it will be to actually replace Haaland! It will probably be impossible at this moment because I don’t see any replacement available. The one who could actually replace him is probably Mbappé. But we all know that is not going to happen. Especially since Mbappé is in the place that he has dreamed of.

Manchester City better pray that Haaland does not get injured and also use him like that so that he does not get injured.

Let's go!!!! This is what i wanted to see from Liverpool. Zubimendi is obviously gonna be a right player to strengthen Liverpool's squad. It seems Arne Slot is hearing Liverpudlians' suggestions to him. But I'm also being pessimistic about this transfer. This is because Zubimendi has rejected Barcelona for years as a spaniard.

If Zubimendi rejects Liverpool's move, it will not be a big surprise. I know Zubimendi loves his current club. He has rejected offers from Spain's big clubs many times.  Money isn't the main issue; it's whether the player wants to leave his hometown club. I hope he does, and it's to Liverpool.
But Zubimendi has rejected clubs before us. This makes me feel worried. That will be awesome if we can sign him from Sociedad.

[bitgolden]

Of course for Man United right now it's not about the price but about what players he can offer to Man United, if you look at the whole Urgate played quite well in the Copa America while defending his country and Zumbimendi didn't play much in the Euros and he also had a long injury at his club, of course Urgate has good abilities for Man United because from my experience I think he has it more, and he is also very good at defending of course he is more appropriate than Zumbimendi.

Man United has just lost Yoro for the next 3 months this player has also just worn the Man United uniform, of course this is something that Man United avoids to buy the next player, like Zumbimendi who is prone to injury of course makes them worried about buying him especially Man United really needs strength in their midfield and of course with this I don't think they will set a high price for Zumbimendi and of course they are interested in Urgate.

I would agree that Ugarte would be better idea, I don't know Zubimendi all that well, I mean that's the whole point, just because I do not know him well, doesn't mean that I can't talk about him, if he was that great then we would have heard about him already, but I have known Ugarte for a long time now, even before PSG deal happened, so I think he might be just a bit better, seen Ugarte play and can say that he would be very helpful for United without a doubt.

On the other hand, I do not know why this is any related to Yoro, that guy is a defender and him missing three months has nothing to do with who they should be getting, that just doesn't complete each other, these are midfielders and not defenders, Ugarte can't cover for Yoro until he comes back, he is a midfielder.

To be fair, looking at last year, we have seen ETH end up covering many players from their positions, and that is why I think it's easy to say that we are going to face some issues with players end up playing out of position due to injuries, they had that last year and could have that this year as well. This is why it's quite tough, and should be a bit of a problem for them with these injuries and should figure out why they get so many of them.

This player can also play as a wide or even a false nine. He's not just an attacking midfielder. This flexibility is very important for a club that is having money problems but still needs to stay ahead of the competition

Getting Olmo until 2030 isn't just a deal; it's an investment in a player who can do a lot of different things. He's Flick's secret weapon; a player whose uncertainty could make or break El Clasico. Even though Mbappe plays for Real Madrid, Olmo is a strategic tool for Barcelona. He can break down defences and make things chaotic on the pitch

It's really sad that Olmo joined a team that near of bankruptcy and Barcelona is not the strongest team, they're struggle to win La Liga and will never win Champions League anymore. The 6 years contract is too long, I believe Olmo will regret to sign this contract because he's already 26 years old, it means he need to wait till 32 years old if he want to join other team.

The thing is Barcelona never want to sell their players at cheap, they always demand ridiculous fees.

Where do you get your information that Barcelona is on the verge of bankruptcy? The problem with buying Olmo was that Barcelona have to sell someone to buy Olmo and not break the 1:1 rule and now Aramark have paid Barcelona €40m and that will help pay off the deficit.
Nike and Spotify will increase funding to help Barcelona not to sell players and get back to the 1:1 rule.
We can say that Barcelona are lucky that Olmo agreed to sign such a long contract for 6 years and now if he plays well, then Barcelona will be able to sell him very favorably. Olmo is a versatile player and the only problem is that Barca already have a lot of players for his position, including Gundogan, Pedri and even Ferran, but I think Olmo will show himself.

[Leviathan.007]

Recently we saw a post from Bilbao and their player, Nico Williams when he said he is passionate about playing in Balbao in the next season and he said he is ready for it while he had some offers from teams like Barcelona and PSG.
Now Catalunya TV3 reported some news about Williams and they said Bilbao forced Williams to talk like that while this player himself wants to leave Bilbao to other teams like Barcelona since he is still a young player.

I guess trying to sell their players at high price is a means of actually trying to generate some financial profits because it's really surprising to see Barcelona which I taught was very financially strong before go almost bankrupt because I could remember at one certain Period that they were actually ranked among one of the richest clubs in the world. But olmo singing is no big deal because there is always a team willing to break his contract if his capability are super and he changes his mind on leaving that club.

Let’s get this done, would be a great signing.

It is unlikely that Sociedad will let him go for less as other clubs were also interested in him, so these 60 million will be paid. Since he has a contract until the summer of 2027, it will not be possible to wait to get him for free.
I don't know how easily he will fit into Liverpool, but judging by his performance for the Spanish national team, he will succeed.
I understand this will be the first signing Slot has made? Liverpool don't seem to be active in the transfer market at the moment.

[rendravolt]

The Dortmund legend has found his new home and yes he will continue his career in the MLS. LA Galaxy were lucky to get Marco Reus on a free and give them a big name and experienced striker. I think there will be a time when all the veterans will go to this league otherwise they will usually go to the Saudi pro league as is the trend.

The deal has been done with a contract until December 2025 but there is a possibility of an extension if Marco Reus wants to stay longer. Marco Reus is also scheduled to travel to America to complete a medical.

Good luck in your next career, Marco!

PSG is really lucky to get Joao Neves, Joao Neves officially move from Benfica to PSG for 60 Million Euros.

Neves is still 19 years old and he contribute many thing when he was play for Benfica, moving to PSG isn't a bad idea since Ligue 1 is tougher than Liga Portugal. But, the contract is 5 years long, so it means he might join other team when he was 24 years old, still quite young for football player.

Joao Neves is Benfica's gift to world football. Born in 2004, the dynamic midfielder stands out with his relentless hard work and technique. He leaves no stone unturned on the pitch and fights to the end for ninety minutes. Neves wants to dominate the game for ninety minutes. At the same time, Neves stands out with his courage in the tackles despite his short physique. In my opinion Neves is an elite level player, but I'm not sure if the choice of PSG was the right one. He's going to a team that hasn't had the desired squad and coaching duo for years. PSG's midfield is very crowded but they will probably start Fabian Ruiz. Finally, Neves is a fun player to watch and I hope he inherits Verratti's legacy.

The 6 years contract is too long, I believe Olmo will regret to sign this contract because he's already 26 years old, it means he need to wait till 32 years old if he want to join other team.

You can't really tell because Barcelona can still come back to form even in their financial predicaments and if not that Barcelona is into financial crisis I believe you would not have seen his transfer as an unfortunate one and saying that Barcelona is struggling to win the La Liga is not true because they actually won it two seasons ago so it's not that bad for Barcelona as you feel and saying that Barcelona will not win the champions league again is a way far off because football don't always work towards our predictions all the time because you can be surprised at the next move of a team everyone feels nothing good will come out of them. Don't you think that within this 6 years of Dani Olmo's contract at Barcelona that the team can recover and become more better?

The thing is Barcelona never want to sell their players at cheap, they always demand ridiculous fees.

If all things were to be equal with every team I think they will all want to sell their players at high price so Barcelona shouldn't be an exemption as their are still quality and productive players in the squad.
