⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

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.

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.

Rodrygo is not really in his best, he is on a goal drought for some time now, although he still has something to give in his current state but we need more that from him if we want to actually go for him. We need those attackers who can score goals like we were having before this era and we all the fans miss that, and Rodrygo has the quality and have shown it before in top games aiding Real Madrid lifting trophies but still I think there is still a chance of him not performing well, especially if it is a big money move with a good wage, which might affect other players wage demands and team efforts but him coming in his best or close to that improves his confidence and time possibly adapting time.

Sunderland seems feel not yet satisfied with their our current squad, and looking for a midfielder to be signed. They are targeting Fermin Lopez to strengthen their mid, and ready to offer Barcelona 80m for him. Crazy to see how this club has so much money, and keep spending after they spent a lot in the last summer window.
I don't think moving to the Sunderland is a bad move for Lopez. I know Sunderland ain't big as Barcelona. However, the offer is too tempting to reject. 80m as it's pretty big to help them in paying the fees they owed from the various clubs.

Shall Barcelona sell him to the Sunderland? Interesting to see how this story will be going on.

As far as i know, Rodrygo isn't as productive as he was for Real Madrid during the Champions League games and looking at the structure of Chelsea currently, they need a player who is still at his peak and i think Victor Osimhen should be a target for them instead of Rodrygo. Victor Osimhen is more fierce than Rodrygo and his scoring prowess is also a good advantage for Chelsea to consider signing him.

What a great news for Sunderland, after been promoted to the English premier league this season Sunderland where able to gain form and maintain a consistent performance for weeks now which  kept them at the Fourth position in the table and  a push for more reenforcement  especially in there midfield is a welcome development. If they could add lopez to there squad in the next transfer window I strongly believe they will appear among the best teams in English premier league and could even be league contender both in european conpetitions if they can continue there current form.

Rodrygo rarely gets the time to play in Real Madrid. It is very reasonable that he isn't quite productive. Moreover playing in UCL against strong team, Rodrygo has no enough time to show his contribution. Actually, it is better to leave than to stay at Real Madrid. But if Rodrygo moves to Chelsea, he will also get difficulty to get regular time to play. I think it is better to move the team that really needs him.

Well, I agree that Chelsea needs a strong striker, not a strong winger. Chelsea has 7 wingers, they are not urgent to have a new winger. Meanwhile for the striker position, they have 3 players. But none of them are strong strikers, they are just average strikers. So, it is true that Osimhen is a better option if Chelsea wants to sign a new player.

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.

Indeed, Xabi still gives Rodrygo playing time, but it's often not as a starter, and it's only a very small amount. Rodrygo is a good player, but unfortunately, there are too many players with similar potential and competition at the club. So far for Real Madrid this season, he's only appeared in 10 matches, totaling just 255 minutes in La Liga, and three matches totaling 104 minutes in the Champions League. His overall performance is still only 359 minutes, which is certainly not optimal. Furthermore, Rodrygo has only contributed two assists without any goals.

Furthermore, Rodrygo has only contributed two assists without any goals.

What about other numbers? I think there's a shift in the narrative where people aren't just looking at goals and assists. Stuff like key passes, chances creation, dribbling, movement, and so on seems to be considered a lot more now. Maybe clubs also use those numbers whenever they're trying to buy or sell players. I think I can see the point of looking pas the G/A numbers too.

Rodrygo has been at Real Madrid since 2019 and he never managed to be part of the starter team. This year especially there are younger players like Arda Guler and Mastantuono who are playing way more than him despite being new to the team. No matter the manager, Rodrygo usually doesn't play. Probably Real Madrid is not the right team for him, he's simply not good enough for them.

You're right, because besides goals and assists, many clubs now consider many things when buying or selling players, except for some coaches who buy players based on need, such as pure strikers whose sole purpose is to score goals. The shift in narrative should also be seen based on need, because every club is certainly looking for players they consider important and who can handle situations they perceive as weak, even if sometimes things don't go as planned when buying those players.

Yes you are right Victor Oshimen is better than Rodrygo in terms of attack and if you look at the structure of the game yes he might be more suitable for Chelsea but I am not sure Chelsea will recruit him because last season they also had interest in Victor Oshimen but never bought it for some reason they doubted this player even though it is clear Victor Oshimen is a productive striker.

Now Galatasaray has got him and I think if this club wants to sell Victor Oshimen they will price him at a high price even more than what Napoli offered because I know Galatasaray does not want to lose their player.

Rodrgyo to Chelsea would be a big big deal. This dude won UCL with Real Madrid and played the MVP level game at the final game, so it's clear that he has what it takes to be a great player and the fact that Real Madrid is willing to let him go is insane. I think it's clear that we are going to see him have some sort of big difference on the long run, not going to have this kind of return easily.

Real Madrid is not the type of team that sells players, I do not remember the last time they had a big sale, maybe Ronaldo to Juventus could be the last one. Usually they are the team that gets players, and either plays them until they are very old, or just lets them go, but not buy anyone to sell. This would be great for Chelsea, they can benefit so much from it.

[tottong]

Letting Rodrygo go, I think, was a mistake. But indeed, if he wants to leave, it's understandable. In the current situation, I don't see any backup for Vini or Mbappe as good as Rodrygo, although his body size is a bit short, he is quite good. Madrid will go through many matches, and retaining him is a good thing. Xabi might be able to give playing time through rotation, so that Rodrygo also feels valued and can deliver his best performance. Currently, Xabi has more challenges, managing star players who have different attitudes, and this seems more complex than when he was at Leverkusen.

Real Madrid could make a wise decision and let him leave on loan, and this shouldn't be detrimental to Real Madrid, but rather beneficial, as they could include a clause in the agreement that stipulates the full salary will be paid by the team that wants to sign him on loan.
This way, Real Madrid won't lose Rodrygo, as both parties will benefit, especially Rodrigo, as he needs regular playing time to develop his individual skills and further his career.
Regardless Xabi Alonso will face many challenges managing the team, as there are still many young players who need to be allowed to develop, and one way to do this is by providing them with regular playing time and rotation options as needed.

Rodrygo going out on loan instead of an outright sale doesn't bode well to me because he is too good to be chip out as a loan player, but if the loan comes with an obligation to buy in the written agreement of the terms and conditions of the loan,
It wouldn't be a bad idea, not a loan that he will see himself coming back after a season or there after.
 
If we were talking about someone like endrick that is still more of a younger lad that is just coming up, it would have been more understanding, because it would be best he go out on loan, and develop his game, then comes back to real Madrid, so what am trying to say is that rodrygo going out on loan is not ideal if he will later comes back into the team, he should stay put and fight for his place or be sold out completely.

[Sexylizzy2813]

I don't want to know the amount they have on this very player Rodrygo all I know is that he doesn't deserve to be at Madrid because of how things are for him at the club, he seems left out of the team and should Spurs get him I feel they're going to be much better and stronger than they are now. Will Rodrygo rediscover himself if he leaves Madrid?

The two players are completely different. Osimhen is a striker, while Rodrygo is a good winger. In my opinion, Chelsea could sign both players and bring them into the team. Both players have the quality to elevate Chelsea. By signing Osimhen, they would solve the problem at the front. Rodrygo would also solve the problem on the wings. So, if Chelsea can do it, I think they should bring both players into the team.

Will Rodrygo rediscover himself if he leaves Madrid?

Sure, leaving Real Madrid now is the best option for Rodrigo and I'm very sure of that. Sometimes, a player just needs a new challenge to improve on his capabilities and rediscover himself. Rodrigo has been performing poorly recently at real Madrid or maybe he is just getting out shined by fate. So far this season, he has 0 goals and 0 assists so far in his 10 match appearances this season. However, I would say that the price tag put on him is a bit high of which it's not also very underserving. It is good that he is open to leave because fans have also lost hope in him.

[Velvet78]

That's too high for a release clause;  while Gallagher needs to switch his choices as soon as possible, man united doesn't necessarily need him for anything special. I don't know why they keep signing up regular players then complain when the results are poor.

This is another thing I don't understand. Manchester United should just go for big signings instead of taking such risks. This is the only way to save them in my opinion.

And I think the main source of their problems is the chairman not Amorim. Ronaldo also stated it recently.




I don't see anything wrong with Laporta's statement. Their finances are already in a bad condition. Why would he want to spend some extra money just for a 4-month loan?

Rodrigo has tried his best for Real Madrid but regardless of how he proves to the club that he's a quality player, they keep disrespecting him by going to sign similar talents like him without giving him the opportunity to play many minuties. I think it's about time for him to leave the club and go somewhere else where he'll be appreciated. Not every player is supposed to play for top clubs because some players get their best years when they're the main players at the club and not like every other player just as it's at Real Madrid. I think he should demand for a move and not only loan, he should make his move permanent and maybe he'll get a breakthrough.

I think I can see the point of looking pas the G/A numbers too.

Of course, these statistics are now of great importance. In the past, a player's talent was enough, but now, when signing a player, teams look at all his statistics. Therefore, how a player performs throughout the match is crucial. If he makes few mistakes and maintains a combative style, that player will certainly be accepted. He doesn't necessarily need to provide assists or score goals. Simply setting the tone is enough.
