⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Velvet78]

BTW, it appears that Arsenal is now focusing on signing Nørgaard from Brentford (source)... He's a great midfielder, but it's quite strange they're not doing everything to keep Partey for another year.

Yeah Nørgaard is a wonderful DM. It would be a great signing for Arsenal for a really cheap price.    I'm also shocked to see Partey getting ready to leave soon. It seems like they want to replace him with Nørgaard but was there really a need for that?  




Chelsea is still not giving up on Jamie Gittens. Another player they couldn't see his future... He was in Chelsea Youth more than 10 years ago.

Dortmund signed him for free later on and now his market value is 50 million. Who knows how much they want for him from Chelsea now.

 Arsenal are just about the most annoying team right now. Reports have it that the likes of Benjamin Sesko and Victor Gyokores have shown interest to play at the club, both of them are good strikers in their rights but if it ever came to preference I'd pick Victor but yet the management and Arteta are dragging their feet. Like it's very annoying because other clubs who their goal is to carry the EPL title at the end of the season are reinforcing their squad, not leaving anything to chance but what are the Gunners doing? Buying Kepa Arrizabelaga to add to the tons of keepers they have.
 For over three seasons now, it has been the same thing. Buy a striker and add force to your team instead they are making provision for players they might not need.
I know that Raya made bis mistakes but thanks to his skill, Arsenal were one of the teams with the least number of goals conceded.
 Man UTD are willing to sell Marcus Rashford for £40m to any club that shows interest. I just wonder why if Arteta can't go for £60m Benjamin Sesko, why not go for Rashford??

A good news from Nico. He's giving green light to go to the Barcelona. His team is also willing to let him leave. Still hope Barcelona to start a plan in signing him as he can't be patience to play together with his friends in the national squad.
€50m looks easy for Barcelona, and can be trigger so easily. However, i still believe they can't pay him direct cash, but choose to pay him in some installments.

Bilbao have completely rejected the idea of ​​paying the amount in installments as they are unhappy with Barcelona transfer moves and are trying hard to block them. Bilbao president has asked La Liga authorities to reject Barcelona's bid on the grounds that it does not comply with FFP rules, Ansu Fati's departure to Monaco frees up space in Barcelona squad and the club's expenses would also be reduced. Barcelona have decided to pay Nico's release clause in cash, relying on the large amount of money coming into their coffers, the €150 million bonus from Nike for renewing the partnership and part of the amount from the deal to sell VIP seating rights, so Barcelona have no problem in formalizing this transfer.

I think Barcelona will try to get Nico Williams. He is a young superstar who has a great chemistry with Yamal in the national team. Even most of his teammates in Spain like Gavi and Pedri play for Barcelona. 50 million euros is not a small amount. But it is not big enough considering Williams' potential in the future. Real Madrid has made several player purchases for next season. I think Barcelona should also make player purchases to strengthen their squad. As far as I remember Williams has the same position as Raphinha. However, Williams can be played as a striker forming a Yamal Williams Raphinha trio or Yamal Lewi Williams.

I totally agree with you. If Brentford gets greedy and asks for more money, United should walk away. The offer is more than enough for a player of his quality. I also think Brentford is delaying a bit in accepting or rejecting the bid in order to see if any of the interested clubs will come up with an offer that's more than what United has on the table, but I don't think that's going to happen. They should just get it wrapped up.

If there are no other clubs who have the same interest as Manchester United then the second offer that Manchester United made should have been a decision to let him go because if it fails again then it is feared that Brentford will not get the same offer. Manchester United are not like they used to be because they consider their players and when they decide to switch to asking for other players then Brentford themselves will not get anything, because there are a number of players in the same position that Manchester United are also considering now.

As far as I know, Tottenham is also interested in Mbeumo, but it seems they are not making a higher offer than Man United, so in this case, Man United has a better chance to sign Bryan Mbeumo. Brentford have set their price, and Man United look set to meet it, so if Brentford are willing to ask for a higher price again and again, then it is likely that Man United will step down.

If Bryan Mbeumo does join Man United, then he will soon meet up with his compatriot (Andre Onana), and I think Andre Onana may have played a part in Mbeumo joining Man United.

Tottenham need to strengthen the team very well because they have a very busy season ahead and so far I do not see any activity from them on the transfer market. By the way I can say the same about Manchester United. Amorim must realise that if the team does not start winning he can very quickly lose his place as head coach. Maybe he is trying to change something inside the team which would be easier than changing half of the squad and I doubt he will be given money for that.

[Polkeins]

Liverpool continue to strengthen their squad in the transfer window and today Liverpool have announced the signing of left-back defender Milos Kerkez.
The transfer cost 40 million pounds and the contract is for 5 years.

Apparently the management strongly believes in Arne Slot, because the purchases are just great. Young players with great potential and lacking perhaps only the purchase of a central defender for next season.

[aylabadia05]

The only impressive signing from them thus far is that of Zubimendi, and i know he will improve this Arsenal side, but they have to go out there and get more quality players if they want to compete with Liverrpool and City for the EPL title next season.

Zubimendi will be a pair for Arsenal's midfield with Rice and Odegaard because Arteta we know has his flagship formation which is 4-3-3.
In addition, why Zubimendi I agree if the signing of Zubimendi is an impressive transfer, because Arsenal only has 4 midfielders (CM and DM). Regardless, Arsenal will lose Partey in the transfer window.

Liverpool and Manchester City are two teams that are projected to be the teams that will have a chance to become a team in the Premier League championship. Man United will also be included in the list of teams that will compete later because they have shown seriousness.

Manchester United and Tottenham were ranked very poorly in the Premier League last year. They also failed in the transfer season by spending too much money the season before that. The players who came were not good and could not adapt to the team. Manchester United clearly signed the wrong players. That is why they cannot transfer many players this year. However, they have to act as soon as possible. Tottenham, who will be in the Champions League, should now be able to buy players. It is obvious from last year's ranking that last year's squad was problematic.

Dortmund signed him for free later on and now his market value is 50 million. Who knows how much they want for him from Chelsea now.

I am always surprised that Chelsea is always the most active team in the transfer market every season after the club changes ownership. In fact, this team brought in players for positions that were already occupied by very good players. But what I like about this team is that this team continues to pile up talented young players into the team. And now it seems that Jamie Gittens will soon officially join Chelsea.

And currently, Chelsea has actually succeeded in bringing in 5 young players. They are

1. Liam Delap (22 years old)
2. Estevao (18 Years)
3. Dario Essugo (20 years old)
4. Mamadou Sarr (19 years old)
5. Kendry Paez (18 years old)

And I think there will be more names of new young players at Chelsea in the transfer market this time. Last season alone I think there were 10 new players coming in. And the same thing might happen again this season.

I think you're not the only one who is always surprised by what Chelsea does every season in the transfer market. In fact, there has been a lot of controversy and speculation because of Chelsea's level of aggressiveness in the transfer market, especially in hunting for potential young players. Many even criticized the move at first. But then everyone realized that Chelsea was successful with their strategy of buying young players. Because in reality Chelsea sometimes even manages to release young players at quite high prices which brings profits to the club. So this team not only brought in lots of new players. But also good at releasing players with good profits.

So it is not surprising that this team continues to invest in bringing in more potential young players. because this team is targeting better sales in the future. And apart from that, this team will also get stronger with the arrival of these potential young players.

And yes, last season Chelsea brought in more than 10 young players. But this team also released quite a lot of players and also loaned quite a lot of players which makes Chelsea I think quite good at managing their finances for player transfers.

[Razmirraz]

~~~

Nico Williams is a man of his words, because I remembered last two seasons when Barcelona wanted to sign him along side with Dani Olmo, he turned down their offer and told them that he wants to play one more season in Bilbao. This means that he has already made up his mind to be with Barcelona next season which is why I am not surprised to read this news.

Barcelona have no obstacles to completing the transfer of Nico Williams, a verbal agreement has been reached between Barcelona and Nico, the next step is to activate the player's release clause which is valid from July 1, Bilbao must let Nico go because he has agreed to move. This transfer is very beneficial for both parties, Nico presence adds more options in their front line, Nico also has the opportunity to lift the prestigious trophy with his new club.

Rashford has also been linked with a loan move to Barcelona, ​​with the player willing to take a pay cut if Barcelona are willing to take him in, but United are more likely to sell the player permanently. Looking at the players they want to bring in, Barcelona are eager to repeat their success from last season while also trying to win the UCL trophy under Hansi Flick.

Apparently the management strongly believes in Arne Slot, because the purchases are just great. Young players with great potential and lacking perhaps only the purchase of a central defender for next season.

Milos Kerkez is a young fullback who looks like he has great potential, so it is understandable that Liverpool signed him for a fairly high price and it seems that he is indeed being prepared to fill Robertson's position who is likely to leave. In addition, Milos Kerkez is not the last because the rumor is that Liverpool still want to recruit Alexander Isak and sign Marc Guehi.

If all of that can come true, Liverpool will truly become a strong team next season.

Barcelona is optimistic of the deal to be completed soon after the player said his good bye to the club and has given priority to joining Barcelona over other interests from Bayern Munich and Arsenal also Juventus. The deal is expected to be announced in coming days. Congratulations to Barcelona, their attack will be formidable next season.

It's a great deal for Barcelona but on the other hand it seems like Barcelona might have to do away with one of their forwards to create space for Nico whom might be coming into the squad, Raphinha is already there and has been a very important part of the team and I don't think Barcelona would be willing to let him go yet so I think there's going to be some sort of conflict already because I don't know Hansi Flick's plans for this season.

I think no one should be removed some players can rotate even Raphinha can also play a little forward so he can be a cover for Lewandowski if there is another injury so I think with the arrival of Nico Williams no one needs to be removed and even the presence of Nico Williams can make Barcelona's front line much stronger.

I hope Barcelona will soon formalize Nico Williams because both have agreed between Nico Williams and Barcelona there have even been strong talks and rumors since last season.

[Ahli38]

I have to say i am far from impressed with Arsenal's transfer business thus far, first they lose such an important player like Thomas Partey on a free transfer, and then they go on to replace him with Christian Nordgaard, and then they signed Kepa, i cannot quite understand what their goal is for next season.

The only impressive signing from them thus far is that of Zubimendi, and i know he will improve this Arsenal side, but they have to go out there and get more quality players if they want to compete with Liverrpool and City for the EPL title next season.

I personally and perhaps many of us are now starting to think that Arsenal made several transfers that were not very effective. And an example of this is Thomas Partey who left after his contract expired. And I think that Arsenal will bring in a younger and more potential player to replace Thomas Partey. However, it seems that Arsenal have instead brought in players who are almost the same age. Regarding the quality, I can't say for sure which is better, but I think it's quite equal.

Losing Thomas Partey may not be entirely Arsenal's fault. because Arsenal themselves already intend to extend Thomas Partey's contract. However, we don't know what happened there that made Arsenal fail to extend Thomas Partey's contract. And Arsenal's decision to bring in Christiano Norgaard to replace Partey doesn't look impressive enough. But hopefully it will be a good transfer even though based on age it seems like this is only a short term option and not a long term one for the club.

Arsenal are just about the most annoying team right now. Reports have it that the likes of Benjamin Sesko and Victor Gyokores have shown interest to play at the club, both of them are good strikers in their rights but if it ever came to preference I'd pick Victor but yet the management and Arteta are dragging their feet. Like it's very annoying because other clubs who their goal is to carry the EPL title at the end of the season are reinforcing their squad, not leaving anything to chance but what are the Gunners doing?

More precisely, the needs you see are different from the needs of the players that Arteta wants. And Arsenal have always been annoying, last season many wanted to see them bring a pure striker to the squad but they didn't. Until whenever this club will always have difficulty competing for the championship, Arteta is stubborn plus the club owner seems to be less than optimal financial support. Osimhen was continuously linked with Arsenal last season and still nothing happened, even now I don't think Gyokeres will materialize.

[tygeade]

If Brentford says no for their second offer, they must go away.

I totally agree with you. If Brentford gets greedy and asks for more money, United should walk away. The offer is more than enough for a player of his quality. I also think Brentford is delaying a bit in accepting or rejecting the bid in order to see if any of the interested clubs will come up with an offer that's more than what United has on the table, but I don't think that's going to happen. They should just get it wrapped up.

Mbuemo doesn't even worth 60 million, the fact that they are offering that much is a mistake already and shouldn't even be the case. Brentford being too greedy already, but more importantly United is being too stupid yet again. I never totally understood why United are getting players like these, like what is the purpose of making moves like this?

Why are they making stupid transfers worth this much, when transfer market already says they are wrong. I do not mean the website, I mean Kvara went for 70 million to PSG, and Osimhen worths 75 million or something, and you would prefer to pay 10 million less and get Mbeumo? Are they insane? Like none of this makes any sense, you either pay that guy maximum 30-35 million and get him, or you just move on and if it was me, I would get some of the highest level players. Go for Los Galacticos approach, get one very expensive player every season, just one, eventually you will have the best team in the world.

[Alpha Marine]

MU seems not yet give up in signing Mbeumo. After their first offer rejected by brentford. They're coming back with bigger offer, which is worth more than £60m for Mbeumo. Their first offer was £45m + £10m adds on, which far less than their second big.
However, i'm still doubting them to secure Mbeumo's sign as their second offer is still below what Brentford wanted.

I only feel so weird they sign more players while they have not yet offload some of their players.

If Brentford says no for their second offer, they must go away. They can also use Semenyo (Bournemouth) as alternative choice over Mbeumo. 

When I talk about things like this, people think I like talking shit about Manchester United, but they simply haven't learnt a thing despite been in this shit for such a long time. How does a club keep on doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting a different result?

Mbuemo is a 25-year-old attacker who has only scored 20 goals a season once in his career, yet they're ready to pay anything to get him? In a position, they already have Amad? Don't get me wrong, Mbuemo is a good player, but is he really worth all that? The people at the club really need to better when it comes to negotiating for players. They did the same with Antony, Hojlund and many other signings.
They seem too desperate for a player who is not world-class, and the parent club senses that desperation and demands they pay a certain amount. This is a very bad way to do business.

[Despairo]

Man UTD are willing to sell Marcus Rashford for £40m to any club that shows interest. I just wonder why if Arteta can't go for £60m Benjamin Sesko, why not go for Rashford??

He's not even worth for 40 Million Euros, he played for 25 matches 6 goals and 3 assists, moreover he played for Aston Villa, a mediocre team in Premier League. If he can only give such results in mediocre team, he likely not able to give more when he play for bigger team.

I don't see any reason to sign Rashford except his popularity, maybe Monaco will consider to sign him lol.

[sokani]

Modrid done to Milan.
Ansu Fati to Monaco.
Luis Javier Suarez to Sporting when Gyokers will leave the club.
CR7 renew his contract with al Nassr
Sesko started following Arsenal on social Media.
Morata said yes to Como.

Quick fire from Fabrizio Romano.

Quite interesting headlines. I just wanted to comment on Sesko following Arsenal on social media. I think this new development confirms by earlier thoughts on the subject that Arsenal will sign Sesko. Also, I think they've made contact with him probably through an intermediary and very soon they're going to make an official offer.

In terms of who I think would hit the ground running immediately, I'd say Gyokeres. However, his age and the price tag is an impediment and I think Arsenal will be making the right decision by going after a younger player at a much cheaper price.
