⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Jackson signed his contract until 2033. Damn, what kind of longterm plan do the Blues want to show. This seems too early, I mean at least Jackson should go through this season until the end and see how much contribution he can give to the club. Since the deal has been done, so hopefully what Chelsea is doing can go well. Once again Jackson indirectly has a heavy burden on his shoulders to prove he is worthy, because if not then Jackson will receive a bitter risk from all the fans.

I don't know how this happened, whether it was initiated from the side of Jackson or from the management side. Giving a player like Jackson which I consider as average a contract of 8 years is outrageous or strange to me. It is also a risk to Jackson because he could be lucky and become a world sensation, then moving to a better club would be a problem.
Anyways, I'll need to know the clauses of this contract; the wages and the release clause before I'll make a better judgement.

very light rumor about an interest in the situation for Osimhen from Juventus.
The deal with Vlahvic will expire in 2 years, so the last summer it will be the last one where Juventus will have "power" over it.

For now it is nothing but let see how it will evolve in the following months

As the current first choice striker of a big club like Chelsea, I consider Nicholas Jackson to be the most lucky striker in the English Premier League but to see a news this morning about his contract extension till 2033, I think the Senegalese is now the luckiest striker in Europe at the moment. Personally, I consider Nicholas Jackson as an average player who shouldn't be a first choice striker in a top club in Europe but since fate have given him the opportunity to spend more time at the London club, there's nothing anyone of os can do about than to wish him all the best. Hopefully for him, he outperforms the expectations of his critics which I happen to be one of them. Congratulations to him.

Yes, I also think that Nicholas Jackson is in a state of grace and that thanks to luck he manages to stay there and put in some good performances. In my opinion we can also consider the player as average, nothing exceptional but in any case if he was chosen by Chelsea it means that He has some good characteristics, I hope he continues to do well

With Mikel Arteta as coach, Arsenal will go far this season and we understand the pattern of the coach, aiming for goals and winning major titles with Arsenal but I do think it's not yet time. Mikel Arteta have core duties to carry out this season, we totally know the potential development of Gunners this season and exceptionally stunning.

Arteta started from scratch, even I felt doubtful when 2 years went on there was no good development with Arsenal. But I was wrong, Arteta was finally able to prove himself and be trusted again. Arteta was then given the trust and facilities to make several transfers. Although in the end they have not been able to become EPL champions. But if you look at the moment Arsenal is very good. I think Arsenal's target this year is to win the EPL.

Arsenal's target has always been to win the EPL even since more than two decades ago. Arteta was good. He impacted the club. But, they lack a winning mentality.

It has been 5 years since Arteta was at Arsenal, but he could give only 1 trophy to his club. It's a shame to compare his club to their rival, Manchester United. They won two trophies in two seasons.

The winning mentality has always been Arsenal's problem since Wenger was there. It even still continues till this time. I'm always wondering how they can get rid of this problem.

I have no idea why Chelsea want to extend Jackson's contract when his performance isn't that good lol.

Chelsea will be in loss I guess, there's no team want Jackson except Chelsea release him cheaper than his market value. It's really rare to see old players in Chelsea, Jackson will turn 31 in the next 9 years, 31 years old striker in Premier League mostly can't compete with the young players anymore.

This is good news for the Arsenal team players and fans worldwide. No doubt ever since Arteta has been in Arsenal there has been nothing but steady improvement in the performance of the team. Not only that, his ability to sign good players in the team as well is a plus to his coaching skills. There is hope for Arsenal to break the yoke of several years of not being able to win the premier league.

With Mikel Arteta as coach, Arsenal will go far this season and we understand the pattern of the coach, aiming for goals and winning major titles with Arsenal but I do think it's not yet time. Mikel Arteta have core duties to carry out this season, we totally know the potential development of Gunners this season and exceptionally stunning. Mikel Arteta extends his contract with Arsenal and that simply means good news for the coach and the club. They're in full agreement and we'll watching the competitive season for Gunners. Since Mikel Arteta was handed the position of a coach, he's been working extremely hard enough to enact tactics that would be beneficial for the club and his player's development.

Arteta has the potential to become a great coach like his predecessor Pep Guardiola, he was once an assistant and sought knowledge and experience from Pep Guardiola. until the time he handled Arsenal, although it was difficult for him at the beginning, Arsenal gradually became a strong team over the past two seasons. unfortunately, this Arsenal manager did not bring in players as we, the Gunners supporters, wanted, yes, Arsenal needs a pure striker who is productive and can be relied on in the front line. I admit he has a clear vision and mission, about the long-term progress of The Gunners. therefore, he did it with hard work. so, it would be very natural if Stan Kroenke or the club gave him trust by extending his contract at the Emirates Stadium. although Arteta has not been able to present the Premier League trophy, thanks to him Arsenal has provided competition in the Premier League to its rivals. other good news, Gabriel Jesus has been reported to have trained with the main team. in addition, Merino's condition is getting better. unfortunately, the certainty of Odegaard's condition still needs a few more tests, hopefully he will not be absent for a long time.

Barcelona Boss Hansi Flick wants to sign the the Bayern Munich midfielder Jamal Musiala for Barcelona:
 
Here, Guys, I saw a fresh news on Twitter in which it was said that Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick is willing to sign one of the best young talent Jamal Musiala. Hansi Flick used Jamal Musiala before at Bayern Munich. Jamal Musiala was 17 years old when Hansi Flick gave him the opportunity to play the game in 2020, which has made him a world class player. And now from the interesting things that the same Bayern Munich ex coach Hansi Flick wants Jamal Musiala to move to Barcelona. And become a vital player for the club. In this regard, Johan Laporta is also willing to offer over $110 million to Bayern Munich for signing the young talent Jamal Musiala. 

Source: https://managingbarca.com/index.php/2024/09/11/flick-wants-barcelona-to-sign-german-superstar/

I'm not so sure about the truth of this news. Bringing Musiala to Camp Nou? Maybe it could happen but I don't know when.
What is clear is that I doubt Barca's finances are very bad at the moment, there is no way a deal can happen. For now, Barca must focus on improving their finances, don't be too ambitious about wanting star players out there, especially since there are many competitors to get Musiala's signature, there are still other rich clubs that can make good offers to Munich.
Another thing is that Munich will also keep Musiala at the Allianz Arena, Bayern Munich still needs Musiala's services to help the team in the Bundesliga and UCL.

It's really rare to see old players in Chelsea, Jackson will turn 31 in the next 9 years, 31 years old striker in Premier League mostly can't compete with the young players anymore.

Now Jackson is 23 years old, and I like the way he plays, of those forwards that are in the team now he is one of the best. No need to worry about what will happen to him in 9 years, now he is young and full of desire to play, especially since any contract can be terminated, and Chelsea is most likely trying to protect themselves in this way so as not to think about extending the contract with this forward in a year or two. If the team changes the coach, then he can give preference to other players, as now Sterling was left out of the game, although he constantly played with Pochettino.

In extending the contract Chelsea is right crazy to give a long time to the game while we know Jackson has not contributed much to Chelsea and last season he performed poorly but somehow Chelsea always extends long contracts not just 1 player but many.

Maybe we never know the reason behind it - or Chelsea management sees Jackson's potential in a brighter future so he is extended a longer contract for up to 8 more years.

I myself am not so sure he will perform brilliantly this season, he must try hard because Chelsea has given him full confidence with a long contract.

If you look at Jackson performance last season it is very natural for Chelsea to extend his current contract, Last season Jackson appeared quite impressive even though he did not play as a center striker,  Jackson who actually plays as a central striker, is often deployed as a winger or behind the striker but that does not reduce his sharpness in scoring goals in last season, even this season he has managed to score two goals and one assist from the 3 matches that have been played by Chelsea in the Premier League.
But the thing that surprised me the most was the length of the contracts currently being offered by Chelsea to players,  Chelsea gave on average their players offers new contract for almost 8 to 9 years, so this is indeed a crazy decision made by the Chelsea management, indeed it is not wrong to tie up many young players with long contracts but they should also realize that not all players will have the same consistency and performance every season, so when these players are in poor condition and are not interested in other teams , of course whether they like it or not they have to continue to pay their salaries according to the valid contract.

Maybe Chelsea saw something that we can't see at the moment. What I know is that Nicolas Jackson looks like an ordinary striker and his overall performance still far from being satisfactory. It seems like Chelsea still really hopes for the potential they think Jackson has. He probably has that because he's still young, but it could also be that he has reached a dead end, so that no matter how long it takes, he will still be like that.

If Musiala still have a brain, he should reject this offer.

Remember what Barcelona did to Gundongan, Barcelona now have Pedri, Gavi, De Jong and Olmo, it's hard for Musiala to become a starter. I'd think Bayern Munich is far more superior than Barcelona.

If Musiala join Barcelona, he will get:
1. Salary deduction.
2. No guarantee to play in every match.
3. Lost a chance to win Champions League.

I am sure Chelsea management has considered all this and taken this decision as a young player they saw potential in Nicolas Jackson and I agree with you that the game is not that bad, the market value also predicts the same thing because since he was brought in from Villareal, his market value has increased by 5 million from 30 to 35 million and maybe that's one of the reasons why Chelsea want to secure this player for a long time. Chelsea don't want Mbappe problem to happen again to Jackson.

For this season Nicolas Jackson has played 3 matches, scoring 2 goals and 1 assist this should be a good start and take a place in the starting lineup. Chelsea will play their next match this week and play as the away team against Bournemouth, I don't want to expect too much from this game but I want to see how Jackson plays. If he can score goals then I can say that Chelsea took the right step by extending his contract for the next 9 years.

Chill mate. Jackson’s still quite new to professional football, and he is still young. I think there is much more to come from him if he is willing to learn more and try to develop himself properly. however, 9 year contract given by Chelsea to him is insane.
            
He’s good but he’s not a great player, and that's crazy to see the way Chelsea is thinking. I'm also wondering who is knocking on Jackson’s door to get his signature once he will be fully developed.

But in the end this is just fan speculation because what I read in the last few reports on local media that this happened because it happened because some fans expected Musiala to be at the club and did not expect him to be like Muller who was always loyal to Bayern until the end of his career.

It is still unconfirmed about the club's interest as this is just fan speculation especially since Barcelona are also aware that they will definitely not be able to do that now especially considering that signing Dani Olmo some time ago was very difficult so it would be very naive when they try to bring in a player of Musiala's caliber who in terms of value and salary will definitely be greater than Dani Olmo, unless they dig their own graves.

Musila is currently still able to go anywhere, especially with his contract running out, it is very natural that there will be several clubs pursuing later, but things like this we also have to see how serious Bayern are trying to offer a new contract so that the possibility of Musiala's departure from the Alianz Arena is actually very small to happen.

I'm not sure how to merge players decision and that if what the club intends doing but if I was ever in Jackson shoes, I wouldn't dare allow such a contract to be implemented. Signing such lengthy contract means you've automatically tight your life to the club and that's the least thing you want to do as a young player that's just coming up and that is even struggling as an attacker. What happens if Chelsea gets a better attacker than Jackson can't bench? He will have to sit on the bench hoping that the player gets injured so he can be given a player time? Almost all the young attacker in the Chelsea team have similar extension of contract  that's at least up to 2030. From a technical point of view and when you're considering that some of these players like noni madueke and Cole Palmer are currently shining too well and might do better in the future, it's understandable to dictate the reason for this kind of contract extension for most of them but for Jackson, let's just hope he doesn't have a bad experience in the club before the expiration of his contract.

[Zlantann]

Maybe Chelsea saw something that we can't see at the moment. What I know is that Nicolas Jackson looks like an ordinary striker and his overall performance still far from being satisfactory. It seems like Chelsea still really hopes for the potential they think Jackson has. He probably has that because he's still young, but it could also be that he has reached a dead end, so that no matter how long it takes, he will still be like that.

If I was the coach of Chelsea Nicolas Jackson would been kept on the bench for most of the games. He has been a very wasteful striker who rarely maximizes goalscoring chances. But he is strong, a team player and humble, maybe this might be the quality the coach wants. As a striker, the goals should be the main objective. The reason why the club might give him this long-term contract might be because they believe he would improve and his earnings might be low. I hope the Senegalese will be able to prove to Enzo Maresca that he deserves this trust.

Chelsea have unpredictable when extending new contract for their players more than five season later, unbelievable after reach agreement deal extending contract for Nicolas Jackson until season 2033 or 8 season later. I think huge speculation did by Chelsea's management by extending their players contract over eight season later and its not worth yet when players have underperform paid them much composition.

Its not first time for Chelsea extended their players contract until season 2033 because have several players before get extend contract almost eight season later.
Its big problem keep their players for longer time if most of them get injury and difficult keep defend their top performance but not possibility reach mutual contract.

[Jody.Drummer]

There was nothing special about Jackson with Chelsea during his time in the Chelsea uniform, so it's quite surprising that he has such a long-term contract. My question is, what are Chelsea's considerations for giving such a long-term contract?  
I mean, don't they think about the risks? Because some of the players they brought in have also failed lately and that only caused losses for them. Like what happened to Lukaku, they could hardly maximize Lukaku's game with the big money they spent. But I hope they are not wrong with their decision and the player can have a significant impact.
