⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Iranus]

Chelsea wants to sign this youngster Omorodion. He is such a tall player but really fast at the same time. His quickness can be a good advantage of course. He is good in the air as well. He is compared to Diego Costa but it is hard to tell something about it already now. If he improves his skills continually then who knows maybe he can be a striker like him.  

However I wish Chelsea targeted a way more reliable striker now. Because they would really make use of one immediately. They can't trust Jackson yet considering his performances so far.

It's very hard to guess what Chelsea wanted for sure. This was because they have a bunch of strikers and goalkeepers. Honestly, this is another weird signing by Chelsea. It doesn't even make sense to compare unproven striker Samu with Diego Costa. I think Chelsea is just trying to see how much money they can spend on unproven talent.

It's very obvious that Chelsea's target is now to be relegated. Chelsea sells a very important player to Atlético and buys one that they don’t need back. It's hard to understand what the main motive of this transfer

Also, I don't know why Chelsea insists on giving unproven players like him a lengthy contract (7 years). It all doesn't even make sense.

Chelsea are going to make changes. And they are going to make mistakes when they are going to bring in players. They are working with a new coach and the decisions that Enzo Maresca makes right now are not going to be the best.

By the way, does anyone know the financial situation of Chelsea? I personally do not know and I think it is not very good. Otherwise, they would have been going for much bigger players. I don’t know the financial situation, but I agree that Chelsea should have gone for bigger and more reliable players. I feel like they are not doing that because the financial situation is not the best. But I could be wrong.

I wouldn't exaggerate the potential of this player so much, but he is undeniably very good and Barcelona did the right thing by abandoning the race for Nico in favour of Olmo. We don't know if Nico would have been able to play with Yamal the way he did at the European Championships, but Olmo is an independent player who doesn't need a strong attachment to any player.

There are basics that need to be fixed, more like put into place. Barcelona have more problems to fixed and it's really going to be a long run for the Blaugrana, the European top leagues are mainly for the elite clubs. Barcelona will persuade for the best players in the transfer window. We don't expect Athletic Bilbao to allow Nico Williams to exits the club because it was probably not an intended move for the club. Nico Williams is a vibrant young talent and moving to Barcelona seems possible in the nearest future but definitely not now.

I have a feeling that Nico may have wanted to move to Barcelona, but the club are strongly against it. All in all it doesn't matter anymore, if Barcelona need him so badly they will buy him later, but I think they will build a decent line up without him. It may not take Barcelona one year to build the squad they want, but I think this season they will still show what they can and finish no lower than second place

Again, lists of other big Atletico Madrid Rumours about signings:

If the list like,bit should be endless, what I think ATM needs is change of coach. Even if Simeone has been good, but the team needs a new coach;

So far, this is the furthest 

Updated news about Conor Gallagher doing medical test:

And you know what? Chelsea is signing more young unknown player on their squad.

Their reason is that they want to regenerate players and reveal the reasons for the long-term project to be successful. Ah well, no words for this club. 

Good news for David de Gea.
After being without a club, he will finally move to Fiorentina, €3m net salary per season.

Chelsea is elite club but they have to fight more inother to accomplish their goals. What's actually connecting the Blues with these average players? I'm so done with Todd Boehly who's only looking into the future, what happen to the current season? He keeps making irrelevant signings and most of these players are yet to be on the top phase where expectations are coming in from the club and most importantly, the club's supporters.

[Leviathan.007]

Good luck in your next career, Marco!

Marco Reus is a true definition of loyalty. We saw players Erling Haaland, Robert Lewandoski, Mario Gotze, and couple few I have forgotten leave Borrussia Dortmund for another club but he gave them nothing but his best all these past seasons. Hopefully he gets a great life and season over his new club. Godspeed!!

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.

I don't know who the Fvck is Sander Berge. Will Josep Pep Guardiola move for this player is what I ask myself. Manchester United recruiting team are not doing enough with getting quality players.

Youssouf Fofana wouldn't be great for Manchester United. No! Sofyan Amrabat would be a good squad player but not a first team player for Manchester United. Nothing about the transfer of Manchester interest me.

Regarding Reus and his next destination, we know Reus is a good player and he had good times in Dortmund.
He is a 35-year-old player and he played on his team for years and he was famous there. Reus is currently without a team and he hasn't said anything about his next destination yet while I'm sure all the Dortmund fans will thank Reus for all the games he played for this team.
Maybe he will end his career in MLS or Saudi League.

[EL MOHA]

Koopermeiners is easly the best midfileder we have in Italy at the moment and if the operation will go as it should be it will be also the most paid midfielder ever in Serie A.

Juventus if will buy him will have redone complitely the midfield in 1 year with the purchases of K Thuram, Douglas Luiz and Koopermeiners.

They spent over 120 mil in this zone of the pitch alone, (they also sold many players so is not a -120m € in the balance)

Juventus have seen themselves falling back drastically for the last few seasons after they dominated the league for over a decade and then due to some serious rules they had to take a hit. Last season they looked like a team that will grow and get back to their old selves but they got hit with many sanctions and that has held them back.

Currently with the new manager and also the entire change of coaching staff we have been seeing a total clear out from the club is as much as it is brutal due to the affected players but it is high time they establish the team now’s koopermeiners who they are chasing after had definitely be looking for a way to come:

The midfield trio will be exciting and that’s exactly what Thiago Motta should be after, focusing on the midfield shows that the manager definitely knows exactly what he wants and it will be interesting to see how they fare together but it is definitely a good balance if I am honest

[Justbillywitt]

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!

Wow, what a great news. I never thought a day would come when when Marco will wear another jersey apart from the yellow and black. I was hoping he would retire at Dortmund. But after seeing his game time reduce and he wasn't ready to retire it was best for him to look elsewhere. Hopefully he will return to Dortmund someday as a Coach. His choice to move to MLS is a good one and I wish him all the best over there. It would have been perfect departure if he won last season Champions league with Dortmund, players like Marco deserved to win the Champions league but it wasn't destined to be. Hopefully he wins trophies in MLS.

Good news for David de Gea.
After being without a club, he will finally move to Fiorentina, €3m net salary per season.

Source: Fiorentina are closing in on David de Gea deal

He will still play in Serie A after previously being linked with Genoa but failed because of salary problems, is it possible that Genoa offered a smaller salary than Fiorentina?

€3 million per season is small, but it makes sense for De Gea to earn that much because we don't know how he will perform, having not played for a few seasons because no club wanted him.

Throughout last season I was amazed that this legendary player didn’t get to play any competitive football, this was the same player that united had been fighting off interest to keep from the likes of Real Madrid and other top clubs, I had thought that when he was offloaded by Manchester United that most of the top clubs will come for him but little I was surprised that it didn’t happen. Many people blamed the situation to his inability to transform into a modern goalkeeper who plays with their feet. In as much as there was some truth In this I think the whole thing also concerned his huge salary which was well above 21m per annum seating at €370k wage load. I think him taking a heavy pay cut of $3m per annum was a good and smart choice, if he does well there is no reason that he would certainly be hired for a bigger wage

[Ryu_Ar1]

Gasperini spoken yesterday and he basically said that Koopermeiners will be a Juventus player very soon.
He wanted to kept the player but the player "refused" even to train for joining his next team.

With the attitude shown by Koopermeiners at this time it is difficult to keep him because after all how hard Gasperini wants to keep Koopermeiners it will be inversely proportional to Koopermeiners' hard desire who hopes he is released to Juventus. So that forced to stay afloat too it will ultimately not be too good and will actually make his performance uncontrollable.

Instead of that happening, I think it would be better for Koopermeiners to be let go quickly while they look for a replacement player in the remaining time that is getting narrower at this time.
I think it's going to be a busy start for Gasperini because after all, apart from having to find a replacement for the injured Scamacca, they also have to prepare to find a replacement for Koopermeiners who will most likely leave even if Gasperini tries to keep the player.

Arne Slot reportedly wants Martin Zubimendi. Zubimendi is positioned as a central midfielder similar to Endo. This makes the competition even more interesting. Endo did not play well in several preseason matches. This makes Arne Slot want to add new players. This makes it seem like Endo will have a competitor. This made many rumors that Endo would leave, reportedly Marseille was interested in him. €14 million has been offered to Liverpool but has been rejected. It seems that Endo really wants to work hard to compete with Zubimendi if he really comes to Liverpool.

This was yesterday's news. But it will be so happy if Mendi will able to accept Liverpool's offer. It seems Sociedad doesn't like Liverpool to pursuit Zubimendi. And the latest report says Sociedad told Zubimendi to reject Liverpool's offer. I do really support the addition of this a spaniard guy to the squad.
It's gonna increase the depth of the current squad. It's also good for Zubimendi to play in the top league. He can show his skills in the UCL, too. That's a win-win situation for him and Liverpool if he say yes for Liverpool's offer.

There's only a small chance for him to stay at Sociedad. Liverpool's offer would benefit his career. And last, i'm hoping Liverpool will patiently wait him to say "YES".

[Litzki1990]

Yes, the high transfer fee is indeed a very big barrier which makes it difficult for other clubs to bring in this player and likewise for Osimhen it becomes difficult for him to leave and find a new club because his transfer price is very high.

PSG even seems to have started to slowly back away or they are just waiting for Napoli to lower their prices. Talks with Chelsea also seem to be continuing. But what's interesting is that Arsenal also seems interested in bringing in Osimhen again. Because Arsenal have now finished bringing in Riccardo Calafiori and maybe they can focus more on this talented player from Nigeria. And I think whether it's Chelsea, Arsenal or PSG, all of them would be suitable clubs for Osimhen. I hope one of them can get this player in this transfer market.

We have been seeing drama for a long time about Osimehene changing clubs and given the amount of money his club is asking to leave him, it seems that the club may not want to sell the player. No club will buy this player with this high price, only Saudi League can agree to such an offer, moreover, no club in Europe will spend so much to buy this player. Rumors that PSG could sign the player were very high and the chances were high but PSG may have backed out of the transfer due to the extra money. If the club wants to sell this player then they must lower the market value of this player to make a successful deal this season. 

One more thing I will say is if they can't sell Osimehene this season then the market value of this player will definitely drop further next season because lately we have seen this player not getting on well with the club then he will not perform well at your club.

If Napoli are more serious about releasing Osimhen in the current player transfer market, then they should be ready to lower this player's release clause again. Retaining players who no longer feel comfortable at the club is very risky. Apart from that, maybe he won't play optimally and another risk is that his selling price might decrease next season. Unless Napoli intends to persuade this player again to feel at home at the club and return to playing a better game and yes, that could bring the player's value up even higher. The only other problem is that Conte seems to really want Napoli to bring in Lukaku rather than keep Osimhen. And this could make Osimhen even more uncomfortable at the club if he cannot be released this season. And now we can see that Conte did not play Osimhen in pre-season matches.

If the club selling the current player and the club buying the player do not have a good understanding of the price, the deal will never be completed. The market price that Napoli have set for Osimhen is very high and no club will buy this player with such a huge market value. As Nepali can see that everyone thinks the amount of money set for this player is too high so why don't they reduce his market value a bit to sell him. Their actions reveal that maybe they only want to show Osimhen that they will sell him but in reality they are not selling this player because the performance of this player is very much needed in their club. We have witnessed many complex transfers in the past and those deals were completed through compromises between the two parties but Napoli is not making any compromises in this case.

It seems that Endo really wants to work hard to compete with Zubimendi if he really comes to Liverpool.

If Arne Slot wants the player, he should immediately make a valid decision, not just a rumor, because the Premier League season will start in 8 days so far Liverpool have not bought any players in the transfer market because I think Liverpool will only stick with the existing players and have no intention of buying any players this summer.

I must admit that Martín Zubimendi is a better defensive midfielder than Wataru Endo if the club wants his performance to be better next season at least they fix this part and sell Wataru Endo to a club interested in him and immediately buy Martín Zubimendi from Real Sociedad to replace Endo's role.

His choice to move to MLS is a good one and I wish him all the best over there. It would have been perfect departure if he won last season Champions league with Dortmund, players like Marco deserved to win the Champions league but it wasn't destined to be. Hopefully he wins trophies in MLS.

A wise decision he gave to Dortmund by leaving them and giving a chance to younger players, now he will go to LA Galaxy of course this will be a common thing for every player who wants to play football while enjoying his life, and I think he will not play more he definitely wants to master coaching skills because if you look at him he is a good figure like Kroos and can be more meritorious to become a Coach, his departure is certainly not easy for Dortmund fans this very loyal player deserves to end his football time in Dortmund but it seems he wants to play longer but enjoying a coconut on the beach is a great thing for Reus and he deserves it,

I myself do not expect fia to work a lot and win titles because in MLS it is also very solid and Galaxy players also do not have many stars so it is very unfortunate for Reus who has to work extra so I hope he enjoys the ball while his old age is enjoyed happily and waits for the time to make him a great coach because usually great coaches come from midfielders and he is one of them.

Real Sociedad are not ready to let Martin Zubimendi go, they are trying to persuade him to stay and reject Liverpool offer. The club's top brass are starting to worry about Liverpool interest in bringing in Zubimendi, and now the club's management is trying to do everything they can to retain Zubimendi. The player seems to have made his choice, he will accept the offer from Liverpool because the club is bigger and he will get a Champions League quota if he moves to Anfield. It seems that this transfer will happen soon because he also wants to develop his quality with a bigger club, his arrival will be very helpful for Arne Slot who has just handled Liverpool, besides that Liverpool needs to improve the quality of its squad because of the increasing competition in the EPL.

There are reports that Marseille have reopened conversation with Arsenal to sign Eddie Nketiah. I think £27m is enough to close the deal for Nketiah and Arsenal are willing to lower their price because Nketiah is pushing for the move. Nketiah is a good player. For a team outside England; especially a French team that's not PSG to be willing to part with almost £20m pounds for you,  you must be decent.
Arsenal just don't have any use for a player like him anymore, if Arsenal doesn’t sell that dude now, his value will only depreciate further and they’ll have to continue to pay wages to a passenger. They’ll also have more unhappy and dissatisfied guys dissatisfied guys around.

[Helena Yu]

He will still play in Serie A after previously being linked with Genoa but failed because of salary problems, is it possible that Genoa offered a smaller salary than Fiorentina?

€3 million per season is small, but it makes sense for De Gea to earn that much because we don't know how he will perform, having not played for a few seasons because no club wanted him.

Actually the financial status of both Fiorentina and Genoa are almost similar, but it's surprising if Genoa not willing to spend 3 Million Euros because they can afford it. But this is a good signing for Fiorentina, hopefully with De Gea they can at least secure to qualify for Europa Conference League.

De Gea can use this chance as a stepping stone too.

What I saw from the source of Fabrizio Romano was actually Eddie Nketiah was very eager to move to League 1 on the grounds that he had plans to develop his career with Marseille.
He is no longer needed to help Arsenal get great strength but Eddie Nketiah once gained a good experience to compete strongly in League 1.
If we compare EPL with League 1, it will certainly be more difficult to compete in EPL so that it is likely that Eddie Nketiah can get greater achievements because League 1 is not too competitive.
Arsenal should have released the player with a value of 27 million and that is enough for players who are not too productive and my prediction regarding this transfer seems that Arsenal will release the player with a value of 30 million.

[KTChampions]

The transfer window in the Premier League closes on August 31st and on the one hand there is very little time left, but on the other hand if Liverpool pays full compensation for the player then Sociedad's consent is not required and the transfer can be carried out very quickly. But judging by the leaks, Sociedad is trying to keep Zubimendi and is offering him a new contract, let's see how it all ends. Personally, it seems to me that Liverpool is still a more preferable option, but only if the player does not have the goal of, for example, waiting for an offer from a top club from Spain.
