⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[slapper]

The recent rumor suggest that how Rodrygo is strongly linked to the Chelsea's move. Even some Madrid fans page already tweeted how Chelsea is in direct contact with Real Madrid over Rodrygo's transfer for the summer or winter window.

Rodrygo is lacking of minutes there. He's also unable to retain his position due to the being excluded by Xabi. I see no reason for him to stay even if Madrid is one of best team in the world.

I've heard Madrid might price him like 50m euros, which i think it's affordable for Chelsea considering he's a fully developed player.

I hope he goes to the Blues. Any opinion guys regarding this?

I agree with you on this point but it is not as easy as it appears. Rodrygo's situation at Madrid is brutal. And I mean genuinely brutal. Alonso brought in Gul and this 18-year-old, Mastantuono and suddenly, a guy who was elite last season is finding himself with Rayo Vallecano with his starts that are 11 minutes. That's humiliating. It is not easy to heal after such treatment under the same manager. He's done there

Chelsea have already spent €70M on Mudryk who has literally vanished this season and they will spend another 50M or more on Rodrygo? Either genius squad planning, or 2 times wrong. The difference is Rodrygo's actually proven In the previous year, he was in the best percentiles on the board. It is the true tell of the €50M fee. Madrid does not make cheap sales unless they are in need of shifting someone

Will it happen? There is the Joaquin Pedro linkage. Rodrygo even commented on his posts of Chelsea literally in July. That's not nothing. But PSG and Spurs are also circling, so January is soon becoming a sloppy month

I'm curious about Barca's plans for next season. If they buy Harry Kane, that's fine, but it's clear that Lewandowski wants to continue with them. If Lewa can't extend his contract with Barca, he doesn't want to play for another team. In that case he may retire at the end of this season. I think Lewa still has a lot to offer. Barca can continue with him for another season. Meanwhile, Messi's desire to return to Barca has been the most talked about topic this week. If we can see a squad with Lewandowski, Messi, Raphinha and Yamal for one season, I think it would be legendary. It would be a great season where both stars could win many trophies before they retire.

I really don't know how true this rumor is, but I have seen it in several transfers discussions lately. In my opinion I think moving away from Madrid will be a good move since his is not having much playing time, which I think he really needs to develop as a more better player.
Rodrigo is a very good player in my opinion and deserves to be playing, but I believe the manager knows better, but that does not make him a bad player,  maybe he does not fit the manager style of play. That's aside if he is really available for sale, Chelsea will be a good fit for him, but it's not going you be an easy transfer because a lot of team are definitely going to be interested in him too. I don't think it's certain that he will be heading to Chelsea.

There have been many transfer rumors surrounding Barcelona in recent weeks. The current hot topic is Harry Kane as a replacement for Lewandowski, but I don't think that's a possibility. Barcelona finances are still in disarray and Kane is currently in top form with Bayern Munich. I think both Kane and Munich will be together for a long time. Lewandowski could leave for the Arab League if Barca doesn't intend to extend his contract; he could perform brilliantly there. The same goes for the Messi rumors, which I don't think will happen.

I think Endrick's move to Lyon is pretty much done, just a matter of time...

❤️💙🇧🇷⏳ #OL

Will love to see him play a full game, no more 15 minutes here and there. It will show how good he really is and his potential.

I don't think Lewandowski would be a factor next season. Even if Barcelona extends his contract, it should come with a paycut and with limited game time, so they can always buy whomever they want to buy and he would be the main striker. The thing is, Barcelona are not in the best situation financially, so i don't know how they can fund such a transfer and register the player. Kane would cost a lot of money if Bayern ever decide to sell him and i don't think it is Barcelona who would be fortunate to get him.

Lewandowski has already express his opinion that he is really intending to leave the club at the end of the season. But right now we haven't seen any official update. But I think he will leave because his age is also bit higher and in old age there is huge probability of injury. Beyond any doubt his performance is too good but injuries is concerned..... Thus far there is also some rumors is circulating that Barcelona is looking to resign the GOAT Lionel Messi but here I will mention something more that Lionel Messi has expressed that he wouldn't be comeback to Barcelona as player.

In the image below, you can clearly see it that Lionel Messi has posted that "one day I will comeback here but still goodbye as player"

I hope this is true, as I've noticed that Palladino brings fresh ideas and a more modern attacking approach, which could be just what Atalanta needs right now.

It is no longer a rumor. He needs to be sacked, and Atalanta did not hesitate to do so.

It is not official. ✍🏼 Raffaele Palladino signed his contract as the new Atalanta head coach until June 2027.

This will mark a new beginning for Ademola Lookman and his career with the new coach. The way Ivan Jurić treated him is uncalled for.

I noticed that teams are not patient enough to leave give coaches time anymore, they take immediate actions once the coaches start having bad time in their club which to me is not proper because even the new coaches will have to come and study the team before they can adapt and get a better result for the team; but since we have high number of coaches available now, teams are just sacking coaches they way they wanted.

It might be a bit easy for Raffaele Palladino since he is not new to the league; he has some good experience while coaching Fiorentina. Let’s see what he can do that will make him different from Ivan Juric because he wasn’t given enough time to prove himself.

Since officially signing from Club Santos in 2019, Rodrygo Goes has been a key player for Real Madrid in winning numerous titles. However, I think now is the right time for him to leave Real Madrid and move to a more competitive competition like the Premier League. Chelsea is a great choice, with their fast playing style and unique samba-like individual skills typical of Brazilian players. Rodrygo Goes' presence has been a significant help to João Pedro, his teammate on the Brazilian national team. I think Enzo Maresca will prefer Rodrigo, leaving Pedro Neto on Chelsea's right wing. His powerful and accurate shots from outside the penalty area, coupled with his excellent passing, give João Pedro a good chance of scoring.

That is not good for Lookman, good in the way that sure he will be treated with more respect and who wouldn't want that, but bad because he is a level of player who should be playing at a bigger better club and he is not being let go and he will have to stay until his contract ends, which I am sure he will test the market and see if any bigger clubs wants him.

But this is good news for Atalanta, Juric was a terrible manager who didn't know how to have a good relationship with players, it's normal that he was let go after bad results because if you are bad at everything then why would anyone want you. I think Atalanta will do better, but not too much better, I think top 10 is the goal as always and as long as they keep staying there, it's a good consistent results.

Milan has made an offer for Nicolo Zaniolo. They must have liked him while he was on loan at Udinese. Zaniolo hasn't been able to establish himself at any club. He played on loan at Aston Villa, Atalanta and Fiorentina. He didn't get a chance at Galatasaray either. If Milan signs him, he might finally settle down. A figure of around 10-12 million Euro is being discussed. If Milan pays that amount, Galatasaray will sell him because they need the money. They spent money they didn't have this season and their debts have heavily increased.

We are actually saying the same thing here, but indirectly. Juric had many issues with the player, most especially Ademola Lookman. Because of that issue, he kept him on the bench when the team relied on him due to his energy and devotion. The same player who single-handedly made Atalanta won their first-ever Europa trophy.  This is good news for him because he will have a good relationship with the new manager and the tactics might suit well for Ademola Lookman will to be able to lead the front line well.

Rodrygo will be a good addition for us especially if he can get back to his best, our attacking prowess will definitely increase and he can become our most dangerous winger but still the main issue here for me why I think it is better not to have an high expectations on them signing him, is from the fact that the wage demand might be an issue here for us and this is why we still don't have an excellent nine like Victor Osimhen.

If not for somebody like Ten Hag and his incompetence, Ronaldo would still be playing for Manchester unite. Ronaldo for instance is still banging goals, and can still do well in an European club, I still miss the absence of Messi and Ronaldo in the champions league, in as much we want to see younger player come up, we still want to see the veterans play the beautiful game because they always bring a different aura whenever they are in the field of play.

I understand that when Ronaldo returned to Manchester United he had problem with the manager Ten Hag but that doesn't justify his relevance to the squad upto this day, Ronaldo is old and cannot compete in the highest level playing tough matches in the Premier League, human beings are not robot no matter how much of a talent, it is preferred that he moved to Saudi earlier, knowing that he will make complete his 1000 goals in a descent period of time.

Fans are very quick to switch it on players when they are not performing, if Ronaldo because of age conditions can't score like he used to, fans will raise concern for the club to drop his playing time, Ronaldo is doing great in the Saudi, playing for United won't do him good.

He wouldn't have left when he left at least he would have still played one or two more seasons if not for Ten Hang. If you watched the second spell of Ronaldo you will notice that he had everything in him to compete in the highest level, his already used to it. Have you seen the goals the team would have scored if not for the players terrible misses. Just watch few clips of the assists he would have made if those guys scored at least 50% of it. Of course if you convert your chances it turns to goals and goals in turn earn you win which gives you more points. Even at his age, he was still the teams highest goal scorer.

His powerful and accurate shots from outside the penalty area, coupled with his excellent passing, give João Pedro a good chance of scoring.

Well he's no more a key player for Real Madrid since he's been lacking playing time this season and even up for sale, I heard rumours of several clubs wanting him but i really don't know if he'll leave during the upcoming transfer window or Real Madrid would decide to wait till summer if no better offer comes by January but I'm quite sure that Xabi Alonso want to offload some players to create space for his new signing in the near future so Rodrygo would definitely leave Real Madrid, his destination could likely be the EPL cause several clubs there are in the race for his deal, but if Chelsea ends up signing him it would be a good deal for the club cause of Rodrogo's raw talent.

Ronaldo definitely was the out and out last striker that Manchester United has had over the last years, even after his second spell Ronaldo was definitely the best striker and difference maker of the team, but let’s be realistic was the second coming of Ronaldo that important or was it necessary to have him, for me I will forever be with the acceptance that the move was bad for both parties and the move only happen because of the other non football related issues.

Prior to Ronaldo’s coming back the club under the managerial leadership of Ole Solkjaer was to me on the right track, they Finished second the season before that and were unlucky in Europe after losing the Europa league then so the next season was definitely going to be more of the former season and with Ederson Cavani was actually a good striking option then, it was until Ronaldo came that they started to have all this problems

I don't think it's certain that he will be heading to Chelsea.

I think for now the conditions in the first half of the season can actually be a benchmark for Rodrygo because after all now his position has begun to erode and is only a rotation option considering Xabi seems to prefer to give places to several young players which makes this possible consideration by Rodrygo.

But if in the end he is still comfortable with his position and the clause also still cannot be fulfilled then it is also difficult actually for Chelsea to expect Rodrygo in this condition.
It's just that I expect him to move and find a new club to improve his performance.
I like him to be in Madrid but when it doesn't fit into Xabi's scheme rather than him just wasting time and just sitting on the bench, it would be better for him to find an alternative club so that his performance is maintained and at least he can still get playing time.

Every elite players wouldn't go for the big winnings? Ofcourse they're top players and they've been creating big path to greatness. Rodrygo is in good shape already, he doesn't matter if he get back or not, he's just not included in Xabi Alonso starting XI for the club. Rodrygo should make moves to elite teams when he had the chance because they all wanted to see him grow and establish but he remained in the club and currently not seeing playing minutes.

Mentioning Victor Osimhen, he's among the world best strikers, I admire his playing style and ginger on the pitch. Trust me when I say, players like Victor Osimhen is definitely what every elite team needs because his abilities are equipped with high standards. Osimhen should scout for better offers in the upcoming January transfer window

I don't really know why Rodrygo was hesitant to leave Real Madrid and join another top team. You have achieved a lot with Real Madrid already so why are you sitting around when the team and the new coach clearly don't have you in their plans and it's not as if staying around will change anything. Top clubs came for him but he refused to go, teams that are not doing badly and are even playing in the champions league. If he had moved to any of those clubs he would have had enough playing time and would probably be rated high at the club.

Well Rodrygo is a talented player and he is lucky teams are still in pursuit for him. There is a rumor going around about Chelsea try to sign him. I heard they are currently in direct contact with Real Madrid looking to see if they can sign him by January or after the season (see link below). Moving to the premier league wouldn't be a bad idea at all, we have seen how some players moved from big teams like Real Madrid and Barcelona and end up to becoming a star. Odegaard is a very good example, he left Real Madrid after series of loan moves and now he is one of the best midfielders in the world. Fabregas also left Barcelona after lack of enough playing time  and made impact at Chelsea. Dembele left Barcelona and won the Balloon Dor at PSG. Leaving Real Madrid doesn't make you a failure.
