⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[abhiseshakana]

Only time will tell whether Aston Villa actually sign Pogba or whether the rumours of their interest in signing the Frenchman will simply fade away. Pogba is an experienced player, he also has the ability to control the rhythm of the game, he can still be relied on if Aston Villa needs his services. Salary issues can be negotiated, if both parties have reached an agreement to work together, anything is still possible. In my opinion, if a deal is done, Aston Villa will not sign him for more than 2 seasons, injury history being one of the reasons.

The speculations about the future of Paul Pogba will keep increasing until he finally settles in a club. The news that he might return to Manchester United has been laid to rest after it was confirmed that the news that he would be training in Carrington was false. There is also news of interest not just from Aston Villa but also from Newcastle United.

I don't think salary negotiations will be a problem since his main priority will be to return back to football. He would get an increase in pay if he proves to be a dependable player because clubs don't know about his present performance since he has been out of football for a long time. The French midfielder is currently training hard in Miami and waiting for a good offer.

Yes, Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Pogba is in Miami and he is training with a personal trainer nowadays, so the news that he will train at Manchester United training facilities at Carrington is just a hoax. No one knows who spread the fake rumors, but Pogba has already caught the attention of several clubs. He might return to the field next season, but even so, it looks like he will get his contract in January. If he wasn't fussy about how much his salary was, he should have had plenty of options for where to go.

Absolutely no way. It's such a degrade for Villa to sign Pogba as their new player. They have no reason to sign an old, bad reputation player with a very high salary. It's impossible to happen.

Pogba seems to play well only when he wants to. He has a long injury record and would likely want high wages. He is not fit for Villa's squad.

Only time will tell whether Aston Villa actually sign Pogba or whether the rumours of their interest in signing the Frenchman will simply fade away. Pogba is an experienced player, he also has the ability to control the rhythm of the game, he can still be relied on if Aston Villa needs his services. Salary issues can be negotiated, if both parties have reached an agreement to work together, anything is still possible. In my opinion, if a deal is done, Aston Villa will not sign him for more than 2 seasons, injury history being one of the reasons.

Pogba is without a club at the moment so it is very natural that he continues to be linked with many clubs, but I think any club interested in signing pogba will have to wait until his suspension ends, I think, pogba still have great potential to make a significant contribution for whichever club he chooses later, but the main problem at the moment is whether he can return to his form when he is banned from playing at the moment, in addition, we know he have a high salary and I think it will be difficult for many clubs to be able to fullfil his current salary standards unless he wants to play for a lower salary, as a creative midfielder and his experience at the highest level of football will certainly help aston villa if they can get him later.

Do you guys saw this:

Palmeiras president Leila: “Neymar will not join Palmeiras, this club isn’t a medical department”.

“I want someone who will come to join immediately, who can play tomorrow if the manager wishes”.

“I won’t accept us signing a player who’s unfit to play”.

  Zero lies but also zero respect for Neymar. The same idea could have been formulated in a much more correct way.
It's funny that literally this was discussed here the other day and the same thoughts were expressed. I wonder how long Neymar's "career" will last given that many people are starting to think like this.

Holy shit!!! That's a cold blooded words by Palmeiras President. I must admit he said about the truth here.

Literally, he indirectly said that Neymar was finished, and no club would open the door for him to join.

To be honest, Neymar was always injured ever since he moved to the PSG, and it still continues till now. Perhaps a club could offer him a place to join as long as he agreed with the pay-per-play agreement.

Is there any fixed news about where Victor Gyokeres is going?
If I read the news today he was linked with MU because his former coach at the sporting has moved to MU.
Most likely he will brought there as well to enhance MU performance. but it looks like not for this session because The sporting official confirmed will release him on next summer.

I think this is a strategy to increase the value. MU must calculate it carefully if they won't the same thing to happen again (Antony). Yes I know, Victor Gyokeres really shines from a previous session, He has even defeated Haaland from this session, but I think it's too brave if MU spends more money (+70 M euros) if only look at his performance in 2 sessions.

I think Sporting CP knows that Amorim is going to come for Viktor Gyokeres. The price tag of the player is high but it’s nothing that Manchester United cannot afford to spend in the transfer market for a striker like Viktor Gyokeres. In my opinion,  Gyokeres is better than Hojlund and would prove to be a good addition to the team. If Manchester United are serious about having a fresh start, they should look into investing in new players.

The speculations about the future of Paul Pogba will keep increasing until he finally settles in a club. The news that he might return to Manchester United has been laid to rest after it was confirmed that the news that he would be training in Carrington was false. There is also news of interest not just from Aston Villa but also from Newcastle United.

Even when I saw the rumor, I knew it was not true because Manchester United and Pogba didn't end well even the time he was playing for them before going back to Juventus. I never consider it as a deal that will go through even though Manchester United needs a player like him in the midfield because I don't Casamero is capable enough at his age to keep the backline safe for Manchester United anymore.

For Aston Villa, if they are serious they can get him because he can really help Uni Emrey to help him achieve success especially in the Champions League because I can see that Aston Villa is doing well in the Champions League this season.

I don't think salary negotiations will be a problem since his main priority will be to return back to football. He would get an increase in pay if he proves to be a dependable player because clubs don't know about his present performance since he has been out of football for a long time. The French midfielder is currently training hard in Miami and waiting for a good offer.

Yes, salary negotiation will never be a problem for Pogba because any team that wants to sign him knows the classes of players he falls in, and they will also know what he can offer the team, therefore, I will expect a reasonable salary from almost all the teams that will bid for him.

True, this will continue to roll like a hot ball especially since there is still no clarity regarding the future of Pogba and with the condition that we know that we are now approaching the winter transfer, it is quite natural that rumours and a lot of speculation will continue to emerge regarding Pogba in the end.

Speaking of wages, Pogba will be more self-conscious about it and the evidence that he was also previously willing to take a pay cut when he hoped Juventus would continue his cooperation is proof that Pogba's focus at this time is just to return to being a professional athlete and start a new thing after previously stopping.

There will still be speculation about Pogba and we'll just have to wait and see how this situation plays out given that he's still got a few months left on his sentence so I don't think he'll be too hasty in deciding his future career.

It seems like Neymar isn't going anywhere, yet.

There have been some rumours like he could join back his boyhood club Santos soon. However I didn't believe those rumours much honestly. He makes 100 million euros a year at Al Hilal and his contract lasts until June 30, 2025.

I don't see any reason for him to leave before the end of his contract as a result.    If he doesn't get a contract renewal which is quite likely considering he literally hasn't played for them yet, he might really retire at Santos who knows.

[xzone]

While Osimhen was really close to leaving Galatasaray and Napoli and joining the Saudi League and there is even news about him leaving Galatasaray for the other teams in Serie A, it seems this player is even about to extend his contract with Galatasaray and staying there after ending his loan time. While Galatasaray got Osimhen for a loan but they are happy to have this player in the team and that's why they want to have Osimhen permanently.
Osimhen was close to joining PSG and Chelsea too but he is currently playing for Galatasaray on loan.
However, Galatasaray should pay 120 million euros for him which is a huge amount of money.

Galatasaray has no chance of paying such a fee. It is not a club with that much money, even if it did, they would prefer to make a few transfers instead of such a transfer.

Even if they had such a big budget, they cannot pay it right now. When we look at the footballers playing in Turkey, we see that players who are over 30 and have played in very good places in their time come here. We have seen many similar examples, the fees requested for these players are around 15-20 million and they can pay this fee. But it would be very difficult for Galatasaray to make an investment of 120 million, I do not think it will happen.

Also, it would not be good for Osimhen's career to stay in this team, he needs to move to a good team as much as possible

The reason is simple, if Neymar is not in the Al Hilal squad, they can register him as a player ready to be sold to another club. And the deal depends on how much interest the club has in recruiting him. Or wait until his contract ends and he will be a free transfer. but we know Neymar's current condition is not good enough. After recovering from the injury, it turned out that it didn't take long for his injury to recur. When he doesn't have a club, then Neymar could want to strengthen the club that started his career. However, of course, he has to give up the big salary that he will lose and he won't be able to get it at his new club.

Fabrizio Romano announced today that "Neymar is happy at Al-Hilal" and will not leave until the end of his contract 
This is against the background of the fact that according to leaks Al-Hilal wants to terminate the contract with him. Lol. He is not even in their application for the season. Neymar continues to disgrace himself - he knows that he will not receive such a salary anywhere else (and apparently not even just a place in the team) so he wants to milk the Saudis for the maximum.

He surely won't move anywhere since he still has a contract until June, 2025. It is not easy to find out a new team if he suddenly moves now. He also doesn't want to move very early because he has a fantastic salary at Al Hilal. He probably waits for the end of his contract, then he will move to another team or he decides to retire. Well, he won't get a contract extension in Al Hilal. Al Hilal has enough players, they probably don't want to have Neymar anymore because Neymar can't contribute anything. Neymar is a prone of injury, the problem will never end.



Al-Hilal will unregister Neymar in 2025

Neymar's agent did the right thing by debunking the rumors that's been flying around the sports media lately. Neymar whose lucrative contract with Al Hilal will expire next summer I don't think will want to leave the club before the expiration of his contract because I don't think he's going to get such huge pay package elsewhere now that he's not been playing actively as a result of injuries. Neymar will remain at Al Hilal till next summer before making his next move which o think will be to leave the club as I don't see possibilities of the club extending his contract with them.

This is really confusing me. Florentino Perez is usually very active when the transfer window is available, and Carlo Ancelotti on the other hand will remain very quiet. So it is quite strange if Florentino Perez prevents Ancelotti from being active in the January transfer window, even though it is obvious that the Real Madrid squad needs additional power and talents so that they can face the competition with a good chance and confidence.

Could it be that Real Madrid doesn't have much budget left? or is it just part of their strategy, so they can quietly make deals without any interference from other clubs?

Managers talk about transfers all the time. But it's always the president of the club who makes the transfer. I think Ancelotti strengthens the club president's hand by keeping silent during the transfer window. Also, he sends a message to the outside that they are a harmonious duo. Also, talking about transfers when the club is in negotiations can give leverage to the other side. I think they are using a good strategy. I'm sure they talk to each other about it. They are both very experienced.

Talking about transfer strategy, Florentino Perez is considered one of the best, we can see how the Real Madrid President brought in Mbappe on a free transfer. Los Blancos have a good bargaining value in the eyes of any player, every player certainly has a desire to join Santiago Bernabeu. Simply put, Ancelotti only needs to submit a proposal, the President will take care of everything. Overall, it cannot be denied that Florentino Perez and Ancelotti are quite genius in their respective roles. In my opinion, Real Madrid will recruit new players in the January transfer market, it is an urgent need, due to injuries to a number of players.

In my opinion, Neymar will not stay at Al Hilal next year. Because the team paid him a lot of money without getting any benefit from him. From the team's perspective, they could have bought a few more star players with the money they would have given him. Neymar, on the other hand, is continuing his life comfortably. Because he is getting his salary despite being injured. We all know how astronomical his salary is. That's why I think the team will let him go when his contract ends.

I have good news for Tottenham fans because recently Tottenham has starting to activate Son Heung-min clause and it says under his current contract Tottenham has a right that they can able to extended Son Heung-min contract for 1 year and currently the process is still on going which possibly he will stayed at Tottenham until 2026 and Son Heung-min contract will be expired on June 2025 and some speculation are appears regarding his future because previously there was a rumour Son Heung-min will leave Tottenham this summer but apparently these rumours is not true and most likely Son Heung-min will be stayed at Tottenham for much longer

Source : https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1856775036117684572

Son Heung-Min have been one of the most outstanding players of Tottenham Hotspur in the last decade and have maintained a good relationship with the club management and fans so I don't think his future with the club will be that debatable. Son's current contract expires at 2025 summer but has a clause in his contract that allows Tottenham Hotspur to further extend to extra one year. I think both parties will peacefully arrive to an agreeable terms on or before the end of the current season and decide if he'll remain for another year or leave by next summer.

I think the South Korean player will have his contract extended because he has done so much for Tottenham. Maybe he is one of the players who deserves to retire with the Tottenham jersey. Another one was Harry Kane who went to Bayern Munich. After Harry Kane left the team, Son seems to be performing less. However, he is still scoring goals with Tottenham this year. Maybe he should accept a contract extension at the end of the season. When you think about it from Tottenham's perspective, it is definitely necessary to keep an experienced and quality player like him in the squad.

If Real Madrid were to buy an attacking player in this regard, they would be criticized a lot. Because they still leave their talented attacking players on the bench and do not play them. What Real Madrid needs is a maestro like Toni Kroos who can manage the team in the midfield. If they can bring this to the team, then no one can stop Real Madrid. The team also needs a right back. After Real Madrid overcomes these deficiencies, they can return to the destructive Real Madrid impression we expect, know and have.

I think the team knows better the deal they signed Neymar for, if they wanted more players they would have gone for others before bringing him. Neymar is a celebrity because of his awesomeness and fame, just like Ronaldo made Al Nasr popular, that's what Neymar did for Al Hilal, put them on some recognition. The only difference between him and Ronaldo is the time to play, I'm sure they even know better about the history of his injuries before buying him.

As long as there is no official statement from the club, he is going to stay until the end of his contract and the team is going to keep him. Nobody kw going to buy a liability because to me, that's what he is right now to any one around him. It will be inhuman to even sell an asset that is not fit in any transfer market, he is either going to heal before sold prior to the end of his contract or not sold until the contract expiry.

Paul Pogba is currently certainly waiting for offers from clubs in the European league before he decides to leave European football, amidst rumors circulating that Al Nassr and Inter Miami are interested in this player, I heard that there are English league clubs interested in him, although they are not the top clubs that we expect because the clubs that are associated are Aston Villa, Bournemouth and West Ham. He will be a free transfer so he just has to choose where he will go, in my opinion it is better to continue his career in the European league than to leave the European league.

I think Paul Pogba need to stay in Europe. Still he had a lot of greatness and quality. It doesn't matter that he has not played since 2 years ago but all of the football fans are the witnesses that Paul Pogba is one of the best midfielders in the world. Paul Pogba can bring back his great face of quality by staying in Europe. There are many clubs that need a midfielder like Pogba, so if he stays in Europe, he can continue his career in a better way. And if he goes to Saudi Arabia or MLS and leaves Europe, he can definitely earn a lot of money in Saudi Arabia. But could not earn the love and patience that people in Europe gave him. There are many clubs in Premier League who are very keen to sign Paul Pogba. So I think Paul Pogba should go to Premier League instead of Al Nassar or MLS. Still he is 32 years old, he still has a lot of talent with which he can restart his career and add can himself in top midfielder list

Tottenham definitely have nothing against other than to actually extend SON contract he is currently one of the best they can have at his position, should they let him leave I don’t think they will get someone of his caliber that will be willing to join this team, Tottenham are a club that any player looking for major trophies will not like to join. Son to me wasted his chances at Tottenham and right now I don’t think he will be sorted after like that again so signing new contract is actually the best thing

In my opinion, Real Madrid will recruit new players in the January transfer market, it is an urgent need, due to injuries to a number of players.

Florentino Perez knows well how to make a smart deal with new players. He doesn't hurry to sign new players, he only sign players who has reasonable prices (transfer fees). When Mbappe has transfer fees above €200m, Florentino Perez prefers to wait for his contract expires. Perez doesn't blindly sign a player with overprice.

Sure. Real Madrid has a great popularity. Almost every player has a dream to join Real Madrid. So, it is not difficult to bargain the salary and attract the new players joining Real Madrid. In same cases, Real Madrid successfully reached the personal agreement with the new players before Real Madrid gets an agreement about the transfer fees with their clubs.

Ancelotti is a typical coach who wants to sign a player if it is very needed only. However, with many injured players, it is possible that Ancelotti tries to sign new players in the next transfer windows. At least, Ancelotti needs new players in defense line. Militao, Carvajal, and Tchouaméni seems to take a rest for a long time. These players need the replacement because the season is still far from the end and Real Madrid still has many big matches.
