⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Ryu_Ar1]

Napoli decision to let Victor Osimhen go is disappointing mistake. Given Chelsea desperate need for talented striker like him it is surprising they did not secure the deal sooner. Waiting until mid season may prove costly. Osimhen departure is significant loss for Napoli and fans like myself are eager to see how team will recover. Perhaps Napoli can still turn things around and surprise everyone. But still it is a Question mark.

Actually in this case I think loaning Osimhen to Galatasaray is also at the desire of Osimhen who still does not want to be in the squad because he is also not really wanted by Conte as a coach and his relationship with the club owner is completely destroyed just because of his desire to leave but his release clause is too big which is difficult for interested clubs to afford.

This is actually an advantage for both parties where Napoli can save money with Osimhen's salary covered by Galatasaray and Osimhen who does not want to be on the bench because he is not really considered by Conte which makes this loan decision the best option.

This eases the conflict between Osimhen and Napoli but for next season or next half-season I think we will see the same drama for the release clause although for now he will still play professionally at Galatasaray albeit as a loan player for 1 season.

It's obviously a good option for Osimen to leave Napoli firstly Conte didn't include him in his plan for the season that is the consequences of changing managers by any club, new manager implore s new tactical formation and play with players that suit the new formation, secondly Osimen No.9 jersey was allocated to Lukaku that also added up to his quick exit from the club to sign for Chelsea of course it's sign of disrespect to him as a player , the other option was a rejected bid from Saudi based club unfortunately that deal wasn't successful that prompted his move to Galatasaray which is more better than the Saudi Arabian club that tabled a bid lately.

More people are now speaking about a potential interest for Osimhen to Juventus.
Looks like Motta and Juventus are not happy about Vlahovic games, and they are searching for a new striker in January as second striker.

Accord also to rumors they are investigation the possibility of taking the player from Napoli, it will be not easy, it may be even a fake rumor but for sure it is interesting.

We can blame the agent for this honestly. He is saying that they just ran out of time but from my point of view, it just looks like a bad negotiation to me. They shouldn’t be in this situation in the first place if Osimhen didn’t sign an extension before.

Anyway him still playing can allow other clubs to really see him. He’s a good player and no one doubts that he’ll continue doing good. But he is taking the hard route. His reputation now is a little marked.

I'll consider this report as a mere rumour until I confirm it from a reliable source but if for any reason Juventus succeeds to sign Victor Osimhen on permanent basis from Napoli, I'll be extremely happy to see that happen. I strongly believe that the Nigerian striker deserves better than the poor treatment he got from Napoli's management that forced him to move to Galatasaray on loan. If Victor Osimhen signs for Juventus, he'll definitely play out his heart for the club so that Napoli will witness his brilliance in the same league with another club. I think it'll give him the opportunity of protesting against the poor treatment he got from Napoli by scoring plenty goals for the Turin club as well as helping them win trophies

The thing is that Osimhen is a very good player and there was a lot of Expectation because the team that was most talked about was that he would go to Chelsea and if we look at how Chelsea really need that player, I personally think they did wrong , according to what they say out there they will wait until the middle of the season to transfer him from Galatasaray to Chelsea , but we will see what really happens , I am not sure if things will be like that , but at the moment for me the fact that Napoli let him go is a shame, however I would like to see Napoli Steal.

Napoli knows that Victor Osimhen is an incredible striker and an asset to their team. However the differences between Osimhen and Napoli makes it impossible for the club to keep him. The time to make amends has passed, Napoli look like they are trying to make the most money out of Osimhen’s transfer to be able to buy a world class striker to replace him, let’s be realistic Romelu Lukaku cannnot deliver the same results as Osimhen.

As a manager, Thiago Motta is clearly interested in Victor Osimhen, but financially, Juventus are unlikely to be able to afford to sign him from Napoli. Aurelio De Laurentiis has set a very high price for the player, with even PSG, Chelsea and Arsenal struggling to meet the president demands. Cashing in on Dusan Vlahovic would not cover that transfer fee, and the chances of it happening are also very low. If Victor Osimhen can live up to expectations with Galatasaray, his market value will endure. I think it's just a rumor, although the move at Januari it's not something impossible.

About this drama, the fact is that if Osimhen is very successful at Galatasaray, then he could attract the attention of the big clubs. Nowadays, the big clubs do not rush to sign players just because they are hearing his name as a good player, while currently the player has not been scoring many goals. Let's look at Osimhen's casino at Galatasaray, in 2 games that he has already played for Galatasaray, he has not managed to score a single goal, this is not a good thing. Especially because we are talking about the Turkish League, which is not a great League and he is playing in the strongest team that has not lost in games against other teams. I honestly see Osimhen declining, he should have stayed at Napoli even if it was necessary to reduce his salary. Because in recent times at Napoli he has not scored goals very often. And in the Turkish League, not scoring a goal will be his downfall.

I think it is still people's speculation. In fact, Vlahovic still becomes the main option for CF position in any match. Juventus also can't sell him because Juventus will be difficult to get the replacement. They can't expect to sign Osimhen in this season because Osimhen has a contract with Galatasaray until the end of the season. So, even they aren't happy with Vlahovic's game, they need to keep him until the end of the season.

Accord also to rumors they are investigation the possibility of taking the player from Napoli, it will be not easy, it may be even a fake rumor but for sure it is interesting.

Yes, it looks like a rumor only. There is no valid statement from Motta, Juventus board, or the related players yet
It is impossible for signing any player now, it is not in the transfer windows as well.

And in the Turkish League, not scoring a goal will be his downfall.

Yeah this drama is over for at least one more season and Osimhen agreed to be loaned to Galatasaray, as you said this is a gamble for Osimhen because he has to prove that he deserves to play for a better club if he manages to be the best then he has a chance to return to the popular league on the other hand, if his performance is not better then his career may end in the popular league. For now we haven't seen any improvement from Osimhen's few games and this situation is a little disturbing to Osimhen, but yeah there's still a reason to dismiss it, he needs to adapt.

Osimhen still has time until mid-season to answer all doubts or make more contribution in Europa League which will be played this week, It doesn't matter if his performance is not optimal in the local league, but the European League is the right moment to prove it and if he is able to do so then he will get back the market value + the opportunity to move. For this season Osimhen has lost 20 Million in market value and this will continue if he stays in this situation yeah maybe it will be under 100 million.

Our current Dusan is not looking the same as old Dusan who scored tons for Fiorentina. He looked like Haaland there. He scored a lot of goals, from either side left and right, with his amazing physique and confidence. He looked like a monster 9. But things changed when he joined us. He plays like he never passed football boot camp. It's insane to see how he downgraded so fast.

Juventus's coach, Motta, must recruit a new striker. But, I can't believe they consider Osimhen for it; he is too expensive for us. I believe that's only a fake rumor.

I would be more confident that it might not happen this season. Juventus is currently having a bit of a financial problem and is trying to fix the team's finances. On the one hand, Napoli has always asked for a very expensive price of 100 million to release the player. So that won't be done by Juventus unless Napoli gives a price of 60 or 70 million, maybe Juventus can consider it.

It wasn't Napoli's decision to let Victor Oshime leave. It was Victor's and all that stems from the fact that he was disrespected countless times by the club last season. Chelsea offered him a poor salary and his agent was also poor at handling these deals that cake from Chelsea and Saudi Arabian Club.
They might b lucky if they offer him the right salary and if he loves the project. I'm.sure he'll bench Nicholas Jackson if he swings that way because I don't see Jackson better than Victor.  Nicholas Jackson though has improved, the you see his on/off the ball movements during the weekend? Consistency is what he needs now. Victor Oshime will never play Napoli again. I believe they're even fighting him from move-in to a better club by increasing the demands and price valuation.

That's Juventus' problem, because from the start we all know that what is hindering Osimhen's transfer is the price that is set too high and not only that, because Osimhen himself wants a high salary when a club wants him. While Juventus' situation regarding its finances is not very friendly for them to be able to dig deep into their pockets, that's what will ultimately hinder the agreement between them. Another option is to borrow Osimhen, but the problem is whether Galatasaray will be willing to give in and let Osimhen go even though his status is also a loan player. If I'm not mistaken in the Galatasaray loan agreement they will be willing to release Osimhen before the loan period ends when there is a club willing to pay him from Napoli.

[tusandii]

I believe the Osimhen episode is a forgotten one for Chelsea and I don't know why you believe they are kin to this guy this much. If they are so desired they would have done it as they had enough time before he was loaned to Galatasaray and I believe the guy himself is happy where he is now dusting off the ugly episode related to the transfer.

For me, Napoli is trying to punish Osimhen one way or another, that's why no deal was struck despite notable clubs bidding for him. If they could cause issues for him this time, what could have changed in January or the next summer? It is not until his contract ends at the end of next season that we can truly talk of Chelsea move or any notable club fairly bidding for him, but for now, let him prove himself to the world again, that's how he can continue to have a good price tag attached to his name.

I don’t think it matters so much now whether Napoli are trying to punish Victor Osimhen or not because his mind is made up and he wants to leave the club. Whether Napoli decides to inflate his transfer price to stall his departure they will also have to lose him on a free transfer at the end of his contract and I don’t think they will want that to happen. We shall see what will happen in January if Chelsea will return with a better offer for his signature or will another top side come for Osimhen.

Why did Napoli punish Oshimen? even though this player has contributed a lot to Napoli, does the club feel hurt by Oshimen's? but in my opinion, the club made the first mistake before causing a feud so it's not Oshimen's fault if he doesn't want to be in Napoli anymore, moreover, the club has also insisted on recruiting Lukaku and selling him but by setting a high price so that no one dares to recruit him I just hope Oshimen will stay until his contract runs out and he can leave Napoli as a free agent that way he can make Napoli feel frustrated because they lost a star player without getting any benefits as Napoli's response to him.

I'm not sure about that honestly.    Because Napoli and Osimhen both have been acting really interestingly recently.

Well, it's obvious in the feud between the two and Napoli has not hidden their will for him to exit the club this season, they just didn't want him to play for them again and instead bought Lukaku. Many politics are happening internally in the world of football but those who could look at things critically and psychologically would know that some things are wrong even if they never said a word. There have been issues initially on many occasions that both the club and Osimhen reacted to (rudely or not), especially when Osimhen missed a goal in the past and they created a video regarding him as a coconut on their official page (now deleted after much of backlashes).

Can you imagine that? They did that to their star player who helped them achieve what they couldn't achieve for 33 years. They later gave him the Greek's give on the contract boost owning to his status so that they could earn more on him until such became an issue for both parties. Osimhen's defence of himself has landed him in the disfavour of Napoli, and for me, it's what's worth defending.

Video: I am a coconut

I mean they say there will be another contract extension by one year, until 2027. Is this really true?

I wouldn't say it's true or not even if the media attest to it but time passes and things change, it is until it happens that I will believe such. However, I will not respect Osimhen agreeing to such a bad contract, Napoli which could not allow you to play for them despite what you've achieved but loaning you out would still extend your contract? It's just like tying his destiny to the club which I believe no amount of juicy offer should have made him accept it. Napoli may only want to make more on him.

There is really bad news on Barcelona side... ter Stegen is out for 7-8 months due to a big injury. 



What do you say about their action from now on? Do you think they would think of signing a goalkeeper in January? I mean they have Iñaki Peña and I assume it would depend on his performance until then.

It is even doubtful whether they can find a goalkeeper as good as ter Stegen in January as it is the middle of the season. But let's see... I believe Iñaki Peña can do a good work in his absence. He is also good at his job.

Injuries are probably the worst scenario that could happen to any player in football. Most of these injured players have completely failed to bounced back to their epic form after recovery from these crucial injuries. In the case of Barcelona first choice, it hits differently for the team and the supporters. Hansi Flick will have to set in second choice, believe me when I say, Ignacio Peña Sotorres would swiftly fit into the space. He will adapt quickly before anyone could even noticed him to be the succeeding replacement for ter Stegen.

On the other hand, its bad news for Marc André ter Stegen who will be ruled out for 7/8 months following his complete rupture in the patella tendon in his right knee as confirmed by Barcelona. However the German international will go for surgery today and we hope everything work smoothly for him. Barcelona will manage to coupled with games without him especially important matches like El Classico, we all know Marc André ter Stegen for his incredible saves in the goal post, he dominates this ground and always receives his accolades in full ratio.

I believe there was a general feeling in the Napoli board that Victor Osimhen disrespected the club by deleting all pictures of himself on Napoli jerseys on all his social media accounts even after the club had apologized for the coconut video. I agree the club start the feud so they should have been more proactive to squash it before it developed into what it is today. They should have settled with Osimhen instead of playing hard ball. Now they stand the risk of losing him to a free transfer.

Lol, Juventus? Juventus  couldn't wrap up a deal they almost had with Jadon Sancho and they want to get Victor Osimhen? I don't even see him playing in the Italian seria A football no more. There's no atom of truth right now in any news relating to Victor Osimhen. As per Dusan Vlahovic,  he did well within the first two games I watched when the season kicked off,  selling him would be part of the changes I saw before Thiago Motta signed up as manager.  Do you mean a swap deal for Vlahovic and Victor Osimhen? C'mon man, that's not gonna happen.

Graham Potter has been rumoured now for the Everton Job.  He's a manager who can handle clubs like this. He'll sure he'll do just fine. Sean should be shown the exit.
