⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

He doesn't close the door for a possible departure but stays neutral in the end.

They say Atletico Madrid could price him even around 200 million euros. These are just rumours but who knows... Just to state he isn't for sale, they can really do that though.

It is still early to talk about such things of course. But I started to believe in Barcelona's interest in him for real. Lewandowski won't play forever...

Julian Alvarez is the best player in Atletico de Madrid currently. With the way he apprehend his value and banging goals, he's the best player no doubt about that. Los Colchoneros coach, Diego Simeone is the best man for the job and we know how long he's been in the club, already flowing with streams for good performance and stats in league games.

Alvarez is valued essentially since playing for his former team, Manchester City. Unfortunately he fall out of favorite for Pep Guardiola and Diego Simeone spot him, he wouldn't let this golden rare gem slipped through his hands, he push and push until he got him Atletico de Madrid. Today we're watching Alvarez banging goals and doing wonders with the team, an outstanding striker he is for the club.

This is his last season with Barcelona most likely because his contract runs up to 2026 so yeah thats probably also why Flick tend to use Torres over him. Well its about time Barcelona moved on with long term player projection to play alongside Yamal though objectively speaking but Lewandowski is still pretty good striker. He scored 27 goals last season

They say Atletico Madrid could price him even around 200 million euros. These are just rumours but who knows... Just to state he isn't for sale, they can really do that though

Barcelona is in no position to even sign a player over 80 mil for sure. They rather stick with the current lineup if they have to suck up 200 mil on Alvarez

Pep Gaurdiola undermined his potential and do keep him on the bench most of the time. This discouraged Julian Alvarez from staying in Manchester City. He saw a chance to leave ths club to where he will be given enough time to showcase his talent. Atletico Madrid brought smiles back to his face because he had enough time to display his qualities.

Your point about Harry Kane is very accurate he is goal scoring machine in irreplaceable role at Bayern which means he has no reason to risk his secure career with moving. Since his main goal is now to win trophies and Bayern consistently offers best and most stable chance to achieve major titles it makes perfect sense for him to stay where he is comfortable. Return to tough Premier League would be pointless risk that could upset his current great form making his current secure position at Bayern smartest career move.

Why a player who is very successful in his actual team, winning the top trophy in Bundesliga while he was very underrated in a non successful team called Tottenham Hotspur in a very competitive and unpredictable league like English Premier League.
Some exceptions happen when there is conflict between the player and the stuff, when the salary is not enough for the player or high for the team or when the player wants top trophies.
Harry Kane is in good situation, there aren't other teams that will guarantee UEFA Champions League for him even in Real Madrid. Better to stick with Bayern Munich and try to grab other trophies with them.

Kane sits on 213 England league goals. Shearer's at 260. Bayern did not release the clause to 2026 without a purpose. It is just a lifeline that he may wish to return and pursue it. Spurs even negotiated the first refusal. I do not believe that he will do so as why take the chance of 70-80 percent of a title at Bayern, and play it off against the EPL lottery of 25-35 per cent? But it is there and in case he gets the itch for the record, he has a means to escape

What people also underestimate is the injury tax. EPL tore him apart: more than 14 percent of Spurs matches missed due to ankle ligament and hamstring injury. First season and half in Germany? Just minor muscle strains. Fewer teams in Bundesliga, winter break, Bayern so he gets subbed early. That is extending his career. It is because of this move that he may be bagging 25+ at 35. To be fair, within the legacy perspective, his years in Bayern could be remembered more as Lewandowski-esque - serial titles, UCL nights, international deals as an ambassador (he has just signed one with Eveready). The label "underrated at Spurs" will no longer exist because the numbers and the medals will overshadow it

EPL clubs are not limited to Tottenham, but based on his statements, we know that he is still very comfortable at Bayern because it is indeed a suitable place for him.

His role at Bayern remains irreplaceable to this day, and his condition and productivity have not waned, as he continues to be a goal-scoring machine. Most importantly, the trophies he has always wanted to win can be achieved at Bayern, so why seek other options when he is comfortable where he is now?

The Premier League is tough, though I’m confident Kane could handle it. But rather than forcing himself, I fully agree with his decision not to try something new. His current position in the Bundesliga, where his career remains secure, is the ideal situation for him.

He has a better chance of winning the ballon d’or playing in Bundesliga Bayern than with any club in the Premier league. If Bayern does well in the Champions league and he wins Golden boot, he has a chance. Kane right now is the best striker in that position an all rounder, he can dribble, give a killer pass, and score as much.

Harry Kane's current performance for Bayern Munich is commendable, and his goals have helped Bayern Munich to win their matches this season. If Harry Kane continues with his current performance for Bayern Munich and Bayern Munich maybe wins this season's Champions League trophy or ends up as the runner up, Harry Kane has a good chance of winning the next Ballon d'Or Award, because I don't see any player who will perform better than Harry Kane this season.

Julian Alvarez is now at the right club, one that gives him more opportunities and greater trust to showcase his talent. This is his second season with Atletico, his influence within the team is growing, and it looks like this could be the best season of his career so far. I think Atletico has invested in the right player, and the high transfer fee they paid to sign him from Manchester City is justified by his performances.

Meanwhile, the competition in Manchester City attacking line is very tight, and it is extremely difficult to surpass Haaland, which is why Pep Guardiola could not guarantee him regular playing time. It is understandable that Guardiola essentially only regarded Julian Alvarez as Haaland backup, and his decision to move to Atletico was a very wise step.

He has achieved what he never even dreamed of at Tottenham, so he remains in a comfortable position. Although leaving the zone is a good thing, for now it is not really suitable for his age, which will inevitably cause his performance to decline over time. Therefore, as long as he remains in ideal conditions at Bayern, he just needs to make the most of it now.

His contract still has a considerable duration remaining, and given his age and Bayern's tendency to not rush into letting their star players leave (similar to Lewandowski and Müller), I believe there's still a chance for a contract extension, even as the current deal nears its end.
Therefore, I believe Bayern remains the ideal place for Kane, as his future there is still fairly secure. Although competition, especially in the Champions League, may remain challenging and difficult to achieve, when there are trophy wins and individual achievements that Kane consistently secures, given his current age, I believe he should simply give his best at Bayern.

Will someone like Sir Alex appear again? I don’t think so, because United from 10 or more years ago is definitely not the same  it just keeps getting worse. Xavi was a great footballer, and he wasn’t bad even in Barcelona, but the question is what he could actually achieve with United. Amorim was brought in as an excellent coach, but even that didn’t turn out to be the best solution...

Well, the current coach was just awful. He just made the team so bad that even in the last 10 Manchester United has never fallen to the lower rank of league competition. Like after Sir Alex Ferguson 5 manager were has been back tested and all of them has been failed and sacked off but no one have ever had the club worst than right now as under the management Ruben Amorim....

Literally this is insane. Manchester United is dipping below the top 1o rank. Below you can see that no manager has done such an awful job after the departure of Sir Alex.

I hope Xavi Hernandez will make something good...

Xavi Hernandez seems to be the name on the lips of every Manchester United fan now but let’s not forget that the names of the past five managers also sounded like names to change the club’s decline and it didn’t work out. However the club have not officially stated their intentions to part ways with the current manager but we will see how the coming weeks will unfold.

It is understandable that Guardiola essentially only regarded Julian Alvarez as Haaland backup, and his decision to move to Atletico was a very wise step.

People just cook up stories and nothing more, we all saw that Pep actually did know the kind of talent that Julian Alvarez was when he was at Manchester City but let’s be realistic does he actually had the chance to actually bench Halaand. I don’t think so, Halaand came into this Manchester city club and started smashing goals making some incredible numbers which would have definitely hard for him to be dropped. In the last season that Alvarez was at Manchester city Pep did all sort of things to actually accommodate him with Halaand but it didn’t work.

I could remember him been played out wide which definitely didn’t get the best out of him, he was also played behind the striker Halaand and it was difficult so the best thing was to let him go as not to hold him back and Pep definitely said that he would love to have him in the squad but will definitely prefer him reach his full potential elsewhere and that’s what it is now

That's right, David Moyes, Louis van Gaal, Mourinho, Solskjaer, and Ten Hag have all failed to live up to expectations. Several interim managers during previous transitional periods also failed to revive Manchester United. If Ruben Amorim dismissal happens, I hope the management recruits Xavi as his replacement.
Ruben Amorim is now under heavy pressure, he seems to have run out of ideas for how to revive Manchester United, everything he says now sounds like an excuse. Sir Jim Ratcliffe has openly stated his desire to keep Ruben Amorim around for longer, but any decision depends on future results.

Fans don't really understand which coach will be suitable to manage Man United. They only know popular names, that's why they want Xavi Hernandez to be one of the candidates of next Man United coach. But I honestly doubt that Xavi Hernandez has the ability to find out the solution for Man United team. As far as I know Xavi Hernandez still has lack of experience managing big teams. Xavi Hernandez even failed to improve Barcelona team in the past. Why Man United must hire him? I think Man United is better to hire a coach who has good experience in EPL.

If Harry Kane continues with his current performance for Bayern Munich and Bayern Munich maybe wins this season's Champions League trophy or ends up as the runner up, Harry Kane has a good chance of winning the next Ballon d'Or Award, because I don't see any player who will perform better than Harry Kane this season.

It is too early to predict or expect a player to win the Ballon d'Or Award. The best player isn't one who start performing incredibly at the beginning of the season. It is the player who maintained consistency in performance without any casualty that will restrain him.

Well, Harry Kane's performance is one to watch out for. He has been incredible with his team maters this season. I just hope they progress to the final round of this competition.

It is too early to predict or expect a player to win the Ballon d'Or Award. The best player isn't one who start performing incredibly at the beginning of the season. It is the player who maintained consistency in performance without any casualty that will restrain him.

Besides being too early, we're also unsure how Bayern Munich can achieve better results in the Champions League, allowing Kane to be a candidate for the Ballon d'Or. If they aren't among the teams capable of reaching the semi-finals or final, there's no hope for them to send a representative, even if Kane performs brilliantly and scores several goals. Kane has been consistent so far at Bayern Munich, consistently maintaining his individual form, both in scoring goals and helping his team achieve victory. But being nominated for the Ballon d'Or isn't easy, as it can be determined by how long a team can last in the competition before reaching the final.

Having a 500 million release clause is great and all, but it just doesn't mean they want 500 million, they had plenty of players with high release clause and they still sold those players for a lot cheaper. While this is a new transfer, there are a lot of people who ended up with different results.

We should be considering how they had Ansu Fati for example and they ended up giving him away, or Dembele had such a high one but they ended up being sold with 50 million and that was the great. We should be thinking this is just for show and nothing more, if someone pays what he is worth to Barcelona then they can get him and not be this deal. Lets see what Barcelona does this summer with De Jong and Lewa salaries, that will be big deal for real.

[asriloni]

Alvarez has a contract until 2030, and 500m release clause. It makes sense even if Atletico asked 200m for any team that is willing to buy him. It's not just rumor, but it's the truth. I'd rather pay 200m instead of 500m, you know.

Beside that if Barcelona is really keen to sign Alvarez, then they can wait until 2030 to sign him for free. I don't think atletico will let him leave with less than 200m offer. my 2 cents.

He's got mad numbers just for Bayern Munich,  few months back, he was said to be cursed for not winning a single trophy but today he's been tipped for the Ballon d'Or? I love what read on here. He gives you everything you want in a striker and give the club one hundred percent.

I will be there to support the motion. I saw Jude Bellingham being awarded the English player of the year award,  next year I want to see that swinging Harry Kane's way. And if there's a chance for him to return to England, I will love it. Maybe return and play for Manchester United?!

We said that about Mohamed Salah last season after his start and how did that go?

Diego Simeone is good at identifying underrated players and grooming them to become world-class.  He has been allowed to remain in Atletico Madrid for a long time even when he has not led the club to major trophies because of the profits he brings to the club. Julian Alvarez is fulfilling his dream in Spain. Pep Guardiola has said that he is not responsible for the departure of the Argentine. Alvarez wanted to get more playing time in Manchester City but it is complicated when you have a world class striker like Erling Haaland who is not injury prone.

He was an extraordinary player, but he had to go because he might never have more playing time unless there are injuries. But I am happy that the young player is living his dream under Simeone. If he continues scoring this way, he might end up competing for the golden boat both in La Liga and possibly the Champions League.

I don't think that it's going to change anything if xavi Hernandez is hired as the manager of Manchester united because the real cause of their declining in performance is not the coach, look at all the coaches on this picture above, is he  better than them all? No.
What Manchester united currently have to do is to build from the scratch, and they are not willing to do that from the look of things because they have to sell off like 93-95% of their current players and brings in new faces that knows what it takes to fight and play for Manchester united because these crop of players no longer have anything to offer this Manchester united team.
Those calling for the head of Ruben Amorin don't actually knows the real problem of Manchester united, they just blame everything on the coach as if he is the one not putting in enough effort or he is the one being wasteful in front of goal during games.

Xavi Hernandez has been the subject of media speculation linking him to the Manchester United head coach position amidst the team's uncertain performance during the Amorim. If you've noticed, Zidane has also been linked with the position.
The media certainly loves to stir up issues for news.

Among the many Manchester United fans, some are toxic, seeking scapegoats within the squad. This is not a good thing, and it impacts the performance of certain players. Previously, they made Sancho and Garnacho the source of the team's problems, but after they were no longer in the squad, their performance didn't improve as expected. Most recently, they made Amad the target of their rant after posing with Garnacho during the match against Chelsea.
