⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Where Wirtz will be next is still a mystery because there are many rumors that he will go to several clubs including Bayern Munich.
What I know, in Germany there is a rule that if Bundesliga players want to move clubs, then they must choose a club from the Bundesliga first and then if there is no, then they can leave the Bundesliga. This is not a certainty but please check the truth.
If true, the chances of clubs from outside the Bundesliga will be in vain because Bayern are eager to get the services of Wirtz who was quite good during his time at Leverkusen.

This is not true. When there are multiple interests from different clubs, a player is not obligated to choose a German club over a foreign club. In fact, there's no such rule anywhere in football or in the sporting world. Players move to new clubs based on their own preferences. The only thing I can say is that some players don't like leaving their local league, and it's common among Italian footballers. So, I expect Wirtz to decide for himself and move to whatever club he chooses.

Accusing a player of being sluggish or playing poorly is simple although there are situations when timing and fit are the only elements at play.   Even though Sancho wasn't the ideal fit for Chelsea's current requirements. He is still a talented player. For a number of reasons, clubs move on, so Chelsea would be prudent to rethink their choices if they believe they can find higher value elsewhere.

Chelsea have decided on what to do in regards to Sancho and they have decided not to sign him on permanent basis and will pay Manchester United 5m because they will be going against the initial agreement. Sancho will have to look for a club at the end of the season, I believe Manchester United will be willing to sell.

Ancelotti emotional closeness with several Brazilian players will certainly speed up his adaptation period, I don't think Ancelotti will experience any significant difficulties. The World Cup qualifying round will be a good event to build chemistry, we will see clearly how Ancelotti performs at the national team level. I think all managers will still need time to improve the team performance, especially to bring Brazil back to its glory days. But at a glance, I think Ancelotti has the ability to do it, he is in the right place and the right time.

We cannot certainly say that Carlo Ancelotti will not face any significant challenge in the Brazilian National team. Yeah, a few key players might be his former players, but there is still a whole lot to deal with. My biggest fear is the politicization of the national team. I read that some members of the Brazilian Football Confederation are engaging in politics. And this had really affected the administration of the national team. Ancelotti would enjoy his stay in Brazil if he is given full control of the national team.

Sancho's performance is not up to Chelsea's expectations, so returning him to United and paying a fine is not a problem. Although it is a loss, it is better than buying him, but his performance is not good enough next season. This season he played 30 times, scored 3 goals and 4 assists. Chelsea should expect more players than that for next season's competition, especially if they succeed in qualifying for the Champions League. Of course, they expect players with better performance.

Done deal! Huijsen to RM is real! 50 million fees, 5 years contract, and received more salary at Madrid. Some PL clubs offered far greater than Madrid, but he only wanted Madrid. He's now in the medical test, and hopefully, he can pass the test smoothly.
Happy with Madrid finally gets a new natural CB. However, they still need to sign more players.

They still need to sign more CAM, CB and wing backs.

Good news to Real Madrid supporters that they finally got their target. Real Madrid have been pushing hard in this transfer window, they want to get their targets in early and are moving fast with the deals. This Huijsen deal has barely survived a week and the deal is already done. Trent is also on his way to Real Madrid what could Madrid be cooking this summer?

[shinratensei_]

Huijsen is really close to join real Madrid for 60m€.
Is it a shame that Juventus sold him the past year for a 15m€ +15% on future resale for a total of 20m€

The young player is really strong and "arrogant", but maybe is a good thing in a competitive environment.

Huijsen has said it all in his interview with Marca about how Juve treated him badly. He's only a victim from Juventus's circumstances, and happy he did it right. He was not willing to leave Juve, but being forced by Giuntoli and Motta.
The good thing is that Huijsen is now moving to Madrid while Juve still have Giuntoli clown as a part of their system. 

I believe Juve will never step up as long as there will still Giuntoli clown there. Juve is the reverse of La Masia.

News on whether he's leaving Madrid is inconclusive, but close to be true due to Rodrigo's stats, this season, not convincing for Madrid to keep him. Having scored 13 goals and 7 assists this season, which includes 6 goals and 5 assist in la Liga, then 5 goals and 2 assists in champion league, and 2 goals in supercopa, he stand a lesser chance in the club as they deemed his stat to be low. But his contract is active, and should be ending around 2028, yet nobody is sure of his next moves.

Vinicius Jr. has a contract extension and we know that Real Madrid is thinking about him for a long time. However, there has been no contract extension for Rodrygo. I expect him to leave the team probably at the end of this year or next year. I even think that his next stop will be the Premier League. Antony found himself in the Spanish League and showed his quality, maybe another Brazilian, Rodrygo, will find himself in the Premier League. I think it makes sense for him to make this transfer.

Between Rodrygo and Vini, the first named is likely to leave, he wants to play on the left, but has a tight opportunity of reaching such an intention. However, Arsenal is also a strong suitor, and Rodrygo is a kind that could shine with the gunners. But if the whites wants to generate more money, they'll sell Vini and leave Rodrygo to stay, as his release clause is somewhere around £85million, which won't come close to the kind of money Vinicious would attract if he's sold to the middle east at an amount that exceeds €400m.

If they're willing to pay the £5m then it's fine atleast it's to Manchester United's benefit cause they can still sell him to another club then add what they sold him to the £5m they got from Chelsea and sign another player, Manchester United needs new players and majority of the funding would be coming from the sales of unwanted players so if Chelsea is ready to return back Sancho and pay the £5m then Manchester United should embrace it,  well Sancho is a good player but I don't think his Career would work in England, we saw how well he excelled while in Germany playing for Dortmund maybe that's the most suitable league for him, maybe Dortmund might come to sign him permanently.

Sancho is good, but he's not PL quality. It's wrong for MU to hope other PL club to take him as a permanent transfer. The better they consider to send back him to the Bundesliga. I've heard dortmund still have interest on him. They can try that. Re-couping double digit million is far better instead of keep waiting his contract gets shorter.

Of course Real Madrid will make many changes to prepare for next season because this season Madrid could not get the UCL trophy or La Liga because Madrid was too confident with the players who were there before and did not think about adding ammunition until finally Madrid had to bear the consequences, namely being eliminated first in the UCL and also losing several times to Barcelona, and not forgetting the new coach Xabi Alonso later, hopefully Madrid can be better than this season.

They're just unlucky.

I think they have enough good and versatile players, but they lack of one or two good midfielders, that's the only thing they need. But now, almost all the defenders they have are injured, this force them to pick the players who rarely play.

Ramon and Vallejo who the hell are them? many of substitutes players they have are full of unknown players too.

Unfortunately they can't get Wirtz, maybe they will hunt someone else or just sign many defenders instead.

[Ale88]

The very case when the dream turned out to be more expensive than money, because in the long run it will be easier to become a sought-after player at Real Madrid, they have everything they need for that. It will be interesting to see Real Madrid's transfer market in general this season, they have few weaknesses in the squad, but the new coach is unlikely to think so and will bring in the players he wants.

Dean Huijsen did not waste the opportunity to join Real Madrid, even though he almost joined Chelsea, Liverpool and PSG were also interested in signing him, but once Real Madrid came calling, he closed the door on the club even though he was offered a higher salary than he received at Real Madrid.
His contract with Madrid will start on June 1, 2025 and will officially play in the Club World Cup, this deal also makes Huijsen the most expensive defender in Real Madrid history.

Source: [Transfermarkt]

Hopefully he'll do better than the majority of the names reported in that list because besides Ramos and Pepe all the others have been hugely overpaid and never played up to their level in Real Madrid. Even a world class defender like Walter Samuel didn't do great things in Spain, then he went back to Italy, with Inter, and he won everything. Militao is good but not great.

[Velvet78]

Only 65 million euros for this beast? Just go for him, don't even wait! 

53 goals, 13 assists in 51 games... This is just another level man. Yeah one can say that most of these goals are scored in the Liga Portugal. We don't know what he will do in a bigger European league.

But we never know before we see.    I hope his fate won't be the same as Nunez. By the way Arsenal should absolutely go for Gyökeres to complete the missing piece of the puzzle in the attacking line.

Welcome to Liverpool with a long-term contract until 2030 then Jeremie Frimpong will have enough time to prove himself. I think he deserves to play at Liverpool and be in the hands of Arne Slot who in terms of quality he can make players find their best game. Arne Slot task is to improve several weaknesses such as: Holding on to the ball, Passing and Tackling which so far shows that Jeremie Frimpong has not been able to overcome.

Vini is far better than Rodrigo in that wing and I don't think that Madrid would prefer to keep Rodrigo over Vini. If Madrid sells Vini, his replacement might be difficult but they ain't missing Rodrigo for not playing all the time. However, I don't think that any of them is ready to leave Madrid, Vini cannot go to SPL because of money and Rodrigo is finding it difficult to leave Madrid to another club.

Day after day more rumors rising.
Antonio Conte will be probably the coach of Juventus again next year.

If he ends winning the league with Napoli it will be even more probable.

What do you think?

Thank you for that. As for not requiring the player to choose a Bundesliga club, that's great for the player and a good opportunity for interested clubs to try and get Wirtz.
With several rumors of clubs wanting to get Wirtz, for me, Wirtz should consider well where he will go if he doesn't want to stay at Leverkusen.
Given his young age, the team that Wirtz chooses must be able to ensure the availability of maximum playing hours. Why would he go to another club if he only warms the bench.

Vini is far better than Rodrigo in that wing and I don't think that Madrid would prefer to keep Rodrigo over Vini.

However, I don't think that any of them is ready to leave Madrid, Vini cannot go to SPL because of money and Rodrigo is finding it difficult to leave Madrid to another club.

Your statement is quite right. Real Madrid will not keep Rodrigo over Vinicus Junior because Vinicus Junior is the player who has made the most extraordinary contribution regarding through the team, while Rodrigo is 2nd option player for the team, and also his performance is not worthy enough to describe him as necessary for the team. Thus far, Real Madrid staff is also preferring Vinícius Júnior over Rodrigo to stay here.

Besides that if Rodrigo wants to play in his natural winger position, then apparently he doesn't have the capacity to play better than Vinicus Junior on left side. So Rodrigo should be patient with the current situation for now, maybe Xabi Alonso can find a way for him, and if he doesn't agree, then he should definitely leave Real Madrid. He should move to the EPL instead of La Liga so that he gets the full opportunity to show his competency.

That is the balance all of the best clubs have to strike. They want 11 world class players on the field, but if one of them gets sent off or is injured, they want players that can perfectly substitute the first 11. But that will never work out or only in rare cases when there is the perfect chemistry among all players, but that sounds utopian to me because once the chemistry is that good, maybe there is not enough friction to get the best out of every single player either.

Vini is superior to Rodrygo, but I think that Real Madrid is reaching out to potential new players already and I think that Rodrygo may be one of those that are supposed to leave the club if they can find the right ones during the summer transfer period.

They usually like to play with 3 strikers in Madrid, but they can't all be of the same type. That is becoming an issue in the most difficult games. It won't be noticed against weaker teams, but as soon as you play against strong teams, they know how to exploit weak spots resulting from those redundancies.

Arne Slot task is to improve several weaknesses such as: Holding on to the ball, Passing and Tackling which so far shows that Jeremie Frimpong has not been able to overcome.

This player's main position is Right-Back so Liverpool need a player for this position? we know Liverpool have Alexander-Arnold and Conor Bradley so Frimpong may be an alternative player to anticipate injuries. I think Liverpool see something else in this player because from several sources Liverpool will pay 30 million as a release clause while Frimpong market value is 50 million well maybe Liverpool are looking at a long term investment here that's the reason 5 year contract was proposed.

Leverkusen released several key players in this transfer window which shows that they are focused on collecting profits, almost all players who are released bring in a profit of 50% of the fee when they were brought in.
