⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[armanda90]

I'm tired of hearing this Osimhen transfer is transfer news every day, osimhen should decide his future and let people rest, many Chelsea fans are worried about Victor Osimhen that they want him to come to the club because they need a good striker who can help the team, osimhen news looks like a player that doesn't know how to decide for his future, Saudi Arabia club came for him and they want to pay a good salary amount for him and if he wants to go to Saudi pro league because of the salary he should go and let the news about him over.

Every news of Osimhen came out with the issue of salary and I believe that if not because of the Demand for high salary I believe that Chelsea would have signed Osimhen since the beginning of the transfer window, early this morning again, another news came out that Napoli agreed with the Saudi Arabia club and the medical test is already book, the only thing they are waiting is green light from osimhen and the salary is very good, so Chelsea should not even stress their self because osimhen is going for money.

The future of Victor Osimhen almost close after two club Chelsea and Ah Ahli become the interested want to sign him, Chelsea have reach personal agreement about salary payment after releasing deal with Napoli about fee transfer.
Left few days later before window transfer close and Victor Osimhen have loss regular position with Napoli if can't find any new teams. Have been longer time with Victor Osimhen transfer update but still not release yet which one his future club for this season after Antonio Conte kicking him out from main squad.

You will tired around two or three days later clearly with the future of Victor Osimhen keep staying or reach agreement deal between Chelsea or Al Ahli, PSG have withdrew their interested for signing Victor Osimhen after high bid offer fees transfer from Napoli and Chelsea want to sign him with loan option on the first season before buy back permanently.

Is it me or is Al-Ahli trying to build an unstoppable force this season? Getting Victor Osimhen who is about to undergo his medical today (if he hasn't) and now Al-Ahli have gone out to splash a £40m for Ivan Toney, medical to be taken in London and where on Earth is Chelsea while all these are happening? Chase two players and losing them both to one club on transfer deadline day.
I don't see any reason why Chelsea need to go as far as trying to get a player and can't come to a conclusion of getting the player, Enzo Maresca is going to get himself into big trouble if he fails to deliver this season and having Jackson as the only option to play his attack is not going to yield anything productive.

Exclusive:
Latest news, Al-Ahli to Italy to do advance talks with Victor Osimhen.

Of course, because previously, Osimhen said "NO" to go to the Saudi league. But since the transfer market will be closed soon, maybe their agent has no other choice.


Source: Chelsea have approached Napoli tonight to submit an official bid for Victor Osimhen.

And in the end, this news really made Chelsea a little more panicked to try to approach Osimhen again. In fact, Chelsea immediately contacted Napoli to also discuss Osimhen, including salary. And Al-Ahli just have to wait and see how the negotiations between Napoli and Chelsea go, if it fails, then Al-Ahli will immediately make a decision.

To be honest, I'm now getting tired of the speculations and reports concerning the future of Napoli striker Victor Osimhen. Since yesterday, numerous sports outlets have emerged with some suggesting that he's more likely to move to Saudi Arabian club Al Ahli because of the mouthwatering deal the club is offering while others suggests he'll chose Chelsea over a Saudi club since he'll want to remain in Europe.
With the news coming tonight that Chelsea have made an official bid, I think they're more likely to sign Osimhen and I'll be very happy to see that deal pull through

I think choosing between the two should be one of the hardest decisions for Osimhen. Osimhen is a quality striker but last year didn't go as expected. Despite that, he still scored a lot of goals. I think the astronomical fee the Saudi team will give him will confuse him. However, if the choice is between Chelsea and Saudi Arabia, I think Chelsea will be the reason. The Premier League will be a better match for him.

Osimhen's agent openly said that Osimhen still deserves to be in the European ranks, of course this is a strong enough code that Osimhen is still thinking about his career as a European star player, of course Chelsea is very advanced compared to the Saudi club, but until now at the end of this transfer window there has been no club that is really serious about wanting him, even though Osimhen last season with his injury was still able to compete on the top scorer board, of course this is a bit difficult for him, the club is considering the fee requested by the Napoli club so that he has difficulty leaving and playing the new season with another club because his current desire is to leave Napoli.

At the end of the transfer window no one has brought Osimhen from Napoli because the cost is certain, yes he will leave for free next season, the fee requested by Napoli is very difficult to accept for clubs that are serious about wanting him because they are still considering whether Osimhen is really healthy overall or not, that's also the part where he scored this goal is a difficult situation for him, I think he will stay at Napoli this season.

I think choosing between the two should be one of the hardest decisions for Osimhen. Osimhen is a quality striker but last year didn't go as expected. Despite that, he still scored a lot of goals. I think the astronomical fee the Saudi team will give him will confuse him. However, if the choice is between Chelsea and Saudi Arabia, I think Chelsea will be the reason. The Premier League will be a better match for him.

Of course the Premier League is the best port for Osimhen, he can build his career there and play in the best league in the world better than playing in the Saudi Arabian League which is still at a very low level. Osimhen still has a bright future, he is still young, he also has extraordinary talent to become the best striker. The deal is close to being done, perhaps the transfer will be made official in the final minutes of the transfer window closing. Osimhen must learn from Oscar experience, at that time he was at the peak of his performance and was a regular player in the Brazilian national team, but after moving to the Chinese League, his career immediately declined and he lost his place in the Brazilian national team.

Napoli has reached an agreement with Al Ahli so inevitably of course Osimhen must be ready to play in the Saudi Arabian league at this time, previously Chelsea and Arsenal were interested in signing him but for some reason Napoli actually refused to sell Osimhen to the club although the offer they made was not small than Al Ahli at the moment, if Osimhen plays in the English league of course he has a great chance to continue to achieve every achievement in his career,  but precisely at this time Napoli seems to have thrown Osimhen to the Arab League and I think maybe they are deliberately doing it at this time in order to make Osimhen career dim, from the beginning Osimhen has stated that he only wants to leave for PSG but Napoli also rejected the offer made by PSG which reportedly touched the price of 100 million euros, but it looks strange if Napoli currently accepts Al Ahli offer which only pays 80 million euros, doesn't it look like a conspiracy after Osimhen refused to play again for Napoli?
I think in the next few seasons he will still get a national team call-up to play  like Kante played for Al Ittihad, but his move to Arabia will actually make him no longer play in the Champions League so maybe people will forget about him in the future.

[lizarder]

for now, Arsenal is certainly only looking for alternatives to fill their squad. Arsenal still has Dafid Raya as the main choice. and Neto can be his backup.
Ramsdale didn't get many opportunities to play at Arsenal. and I think the decision to leave was quite good. of course, he wants more playing minutes in the team. There is a tight competition at Arsenal and he might get it at his new club.
I just hope Neto also gets the opportunity to play at Arsenal.

If you do not get a place in the core squad, it can affect the performance of the player's quality so deciding to go to another club is a much better choice. The competition faced by Ramsdale is indeed quite tight where Arteta entrusts Dafid Raya as the main goalkeeper and Neto as the second layer. There is no opportunity of playing will make Ramsdale lose the opportunity to improve the skills they have and should play in clubs that need him.

Neto will be a coating in the Arsenal team and maybe Arteta will try to rotate players when facing a much weaker team. Rotation is sometimes needed to keep the core players fit and not face injury problems. If this can be used by him, there is an opportunity for Neto to show good talent when entrusted to play.

Is it me or is Al-Ahli trying to build an unstoppable force this season? Getting Victor Osimhen who is about to undergo his medical today (if he hasn't) and now Al-Ahli have gone out to splash a £40m for Ivan Toney, medical to be taken in London and where on Earth is Chelsea while all these are happening? Chase two players and losing them both to one club on transfer deadline day.
I don't see any reason why Chelsea need to go as far as trying to get a player and can't come to a conclusion of getting the player, Enzo Maresca is going to get himself into big trouble if he fails to deliver this season and having Jackson as the only option to play his attack is not going to yield anything productive.

Chelsea already has enough strikers that can be managed until the transfer window opens again. But the problem is that almost all of them are average players. You wouldn't blame Chelsea for their slow approach; they are under the financial fair play rules, which means they need to balance their books. The club wanted to offload some players, and it seems it is not happening as fast as they want.

Meanwhile, the Saudi League is not under any financial control and also has the support of the government. So they can offer players what no European club can give as wages. It is in the news that Chelsea has also offered a deal to Victor. The ball is now in the court of the Nigerian to make decisions on the club he wants to move to. The option is now "Money or Passion".

This might be true but I actually doubt it from the fact that they maybe agreeing to this simply because they don't have any other option left except Chelsea who likely will prefer a loan deal with an option to buy deal than this. Every other teams interested in Osimhen has given up mostly because of the fee requested by Napoli while also considering his wage demands, obviously it will be difficult for clubs to remain interested in him except they are desperately in need of a striker like Chelsea.

I think in the next few seasons he will still get a national team call-up to play  like Kante played for Al Ittihad, but his move to Arabia will actually make him no longer play in the Champions League so maybe people will forget about him in the future.

As long as he do well there, he will continually be called by the National team because no body can ignore how good he is and may possibly even get the interest of European clubs there and return back to European football if he doesn't loses form

Sofyan Amrabat signs for Fenerbahçe. 2 million euros loan fee, obligation to buy for 13 million and bonuses worth 3 million.

https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1829276538916708430

Mourinho has been waiting for a midfielder signing by the team for many weeks. Finally he has got what he wanted.    Amrabat is 28 years old which is good for Fenerbahçe. He can be useful for many years if he adapts well. The fans have been complaining about Krunic's horrible performance for a while. From now on, they would be satisfied. Amrabat is mainly a DM who can play as CM too (and even as LB).

Mourinho's team is making decent signings recently so I wonder how big impact it will make on especially the Europa League...

Yeah it is rumored that Osimhen currently has a verbal agreement with the SPL club where he agreed to a bid of 160 million which of course this would be an unthinkable condition where he had to surrender to Al Ahli's big offer even though there was no official agreement.

It seems that he wants to leave Napoli as soon as possible with a situation that is indeed uncertain because his current relationship is really confusing.
But choosing an SPL club in the end also has risks for performance because indeed in terms of salary they will definitely not have problems because whoever is in the SPL then financially they are guaranteed but still when leaving European competition then the hype and exposure will not be greater.

In addition, the deal must also be quick if he wants to leave because seeing from the closing time of the transfer season then it only leaves a few days.

This transfer process is very rapid because yesterday Fenerbahce and Fiorentina still under negotiation about this transfer even there was possibility Fiorentina will hold him but today we have seen that both teams has been reach an agreement for transfer fees and Sofyan Amrabat will do medical check immediatelly and Jose Mourinho asking to the management personally to bought Sofyan Amrabat from Fiorentina because he feel Sofyan Amrabat can makes Fenerbahce midfield will be more stronger

Actually Sofyan Amrabat was hoping Manchester United will be permanent his status because he was feel happy to playing on that team even before Fenerbahce there was an offers from the particular clubs to him but Sofyan Amrabat has been reject those offers because he want to playing at Manchester United but i don't know why whether it Fiorentina and Manchester United didn't reach an agreement that made this transfer fail

Sorry, is there an announcement if Osimhen agreed to join al Ahli? AFAIK, he is not accepting al Ahli's offer, though his club has reached an agreement with Ahli to sell him.

Tooney is likely becoming Ahli's second option after their offer fails to attract Osimhen. Also, this transfer is finishing his football career. He's 25, he agreed a wage of 650k a week AFTER taxes. He’s officially just ended his career.

I don't see any reason why Chelsea need to go as far as trying to get a player and can't come to a conclusion of getting the player, Enzo Maresca is going to get himself into big trouble if he fails to deliver this season and having Jackson as the only option to play his attack is not going to yield anything productive.

You're a bit wrong to call Jackson the only option owned by Maresca. There are also Nkuku and Guiu who can also sub Jackson to play as a striker.

Money or Legacy?

I want to see Victor Osimhen playing in the premier league. Tbh I even prefer Osimhen at Arsenal than Chelsea FC. Chelsea are not a top tier team in the EPL anymore, they aren’t even in the champions league. So what’s the motivation for joining the club if not for their name and old accomplishments. Oscar left Chelsea to play in China when he was in his prime (at 25 years old which is Osimhen’s current age) so Victor Osimhen will not be the first player to choose money over the club.

It seems that Chelsea is increasingly enthusiastic about improving the performance of its current club which is currently being criticized by football observers and even bettors are always discussing Chelsea's bad side.
This time Chelsea continues to approach Jadon Sancho, my left player owned by Man Utd and Chelsea may also know that it seems that Sancho is still not enthusiastic when he was with Man Utd.
If Sancho succeeds in joining Chelsea, I think Enzo's club will have a positive improvement.

I think Ferdi Kadıoğlu leaving the team was as important as Amrabat transfer. Mourinho should have kept Ferdi in the team this year. They will probably have problems at left back because they couldn't keep him in the team. Amrabat is a name that can do a lot in the midfield without Fred. I think of him as a starting 11 player, not a substitute anyway. He knows him well from the Italian league, if he wants him, I believe he will be really useful.

The Osimhen's deal is on the player's hand and things are not even showing any sign of the deal to workout after the news came in that the club can't have two foreigners in the same club like one have to go for the other to stay so the news coming in and out hasn't given us anything positive yet but that's what went down before I dropped the post. I'm even bored talking about Osimhen and his weak decision to find a club, I just wish it was Chelsea who got him let's see the reason for increasing his pay. Money can make some humans take a decision that they'll some day regret.

You're a bit wrong to call Jackson the only option owned by Maresca. There are also Nkuku and Guiu who can also sub Jackson to play as a striker.

I might be wrong on your side but if Enzo sees these guys as second option why has he not yet tried using them to replace Jackson in any game when he knows the Jackson isn't doing well? Let's face the fact here, Chelsea only have Jackson as the number 1 striker and in the game against Wolves Jackson played more than the Nkunku and the other guy you mentioned Guiu is not even suppose to be mentioned in the first place, unless you see Jackson getting an injury which I don't see happening that's when you see the Guiu playing ahead of Jackson and as for Nkunku he can play him any where.

Jadon Sancho is also reportedly close to Juventus, but until now it seems they have not reached an agreement so that Chelsea can still approach him. Chelsea themselves have now shown quite good improvements, they can play better in the last week of the Premier League. They have also just finished the match in the European Conference League play-off round, even though they lost, it did not matter because they still won the aggregate goal. They do have to be serious about building a team, because if not they will be far behind teams that already have a better foundation than them. While they are still building that foundation and this season they must show positive progress from everything they have done during the break and this transfer market.

Those players you think they have is not going to bring anything positive to the table and like you said, they're all average players and is even bad that they (Chelsea) know but it went ahead to get them to join the team. Chelsea and Arsenal are the worse in this transfer window, they know their problem but they haven't done anything to get that problem solved and they are having that hope of managing what they have, it will be a long ride for both clubs.
Osimhen don't even know what he wants and if it happens that non of these clubs that are going for him don't get his signature I think he is in for a career disaster, because I know Napoli won't even give him that attention, he need to act fast to save himself from this unnecessary pressure. And I think going to this Saudi side is for the money not the passion we all know.

[coinlocket$]

With Osimhen probably going In Arabia we have the following scenario.
Sancho will probably ends in Chelsea, since they can't have Osimhen they will have money and space to sign him.

Osimhen  should sign a 4 year deal but he will probably have a release clause after 2 year spent in Saudi Arabia, the amount is rumored to be around 50mil €

News related to the plan to sell Jadon Sancho has been discussed lot since some time ago and Juventus is the team that is most associated with the player because Juventus really seems to want him in this summer transfer.
But I just saw some news that said that Juventus withdrew from interest in getting Jadon Sancho and Chelsea are still trying to get this transfer from Manchester United before the transfer window closes.
Indeed, Jadon Sancho could make Chelsea perform optimally and improve the quality of performance for this season, but if they are unable to take advantage of Jadon Sancho if the transfer is successful then all of this will be in vain.
We will see in few days the transfer window will close soon and each team can focus on competing and fighting for points from each match for each domestic league, this is condition that is quite anticipated considering that each team will appear more impressive.

Saudi sources say that Al-Ahli does not have the money to buy Osimhen and Toney and in addition, according to the regulations Al-Ahli does not have two vacancies for foreign players yet. In general, this is a very strange story and it seems that Chesley really wants to sign Osimhen and is waiting for him to refuse a move to Al-Ahli. We can still believe that Al-Ahli will buy Toney, after all 40 million euros they can probably find, but to buy two such players I think the club will not be able to, because they already have on the balance sheet is Firmino, who almost stopped playing and the club in the championship are not the best, so I expect that Osimhen will still go to Chesley in the end.
