⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Bitcoin_Arena]

Based on Vinicius Jnr's performance last night against Athletic Bilbao it is obvious that the Brazilian is in good spirits and might end up landing a lucrative deal better than what he already has at Real Madrid, Vini is still a very important player for Real Madrid and am sure that both Xabi Alonso and Florentino Perez recognises this and would do everything possible to retain him for as long as possible .

This is very confident of you to assume that Real Madrid will just base on just a performance in one match to accept Vini's increased salary demands and making him sign a new contract. There is more the renewal of the contract than just performance. At the top of the list is Vini's attitude which also involves his relationship with the manager who is in charge.

There is no use making him sign a new deal if he keeps sulking and questioning Xabi's choices. A balanced dress room is equally important as a team's performance.

For me I don’t think Real Madrid will pay him above 30million a year, so he should lower his ego and accept what Real Madrid are currently offering him. He his a good player no doubt but can any club offer him what he his demanding? I don’t think so. Well let see how it all ends.

Yes, accept Madrid's salary offer and resume playing as usual, or leave. After all, when a player no longer aligns with the team, no matter how good they are, it will certainly impact the team's performance, including Vini and Madrid. Furthermore, Real Madrid will certainly be able to find a suitable replacement if negotiations with Vini truly fail.

New players are born every day so I don't think it will be difficult for Real Madrid to get a replacement for him. Players come and go and no matter how good you are Sooner or later the team will have a player as good as you or better than you. Ronaldo helped the club achieved so many things and even he was replaced and the team still continues to exist so if Vinicius feels he is not paid enough then he should leave, I know it won't take time to replace him. My advice is that Vinicius stays at the club and accept whatever they offer him or at least be reasonable and understanding and work something out with them. He is a good player and Real Madrid is the best place for him for now, going elsewhere will only take him out of the spotlight which is not good for his career.

Clearly, that is an act of ego because before Mbappe arrived, Vinicius was the main player and Real Madrid's key goal scorer. Of course, with Mbappe's arrival, who is highly paid, Vinicius would also want a high contract value in his new contract extension. If there is no deal, the clubs willing to pay a large salary as expected might only be some Saudi Arabian clubs and English league clubs. Another option is PSG, but PSG's forward line is already overcrowded, so they definitely do not want Vinicius, especially since PSG's coach is a former Barcelona player who certainly hates Real Madrid.

Currently, the issue with the coaches and staff is always a problem that cannot be solved because I think it's not just about the salary that we should emphasize but the relationship with the coaches and staff. It would be useless if Madrid offered Vini what he wanted but didn't resolve the issue with Xabi because that would complicate things.

Vini is a good player but when he's on the pitch we know what his temperament is like and this could also happen with the current situation where the problem will widen if Vini makes too many demands.
I think if he really wants to stay at Madrid then it would be better for him to keep quiet and continue in the same conditions where he trains harder and shows better performance because it will be much more profitable than if he has more drama in demanding a new contract.

By the way, the latest news from former Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos, whose contract with Monterrey FC expires in 2026, and he will become a free agent. He is already 39 years old, but according to reports, he is still not retiring.

Many comments on social media say: "Florentino, before you leave, do it if you can," and the truth is, with Real Madrid's situation, it would be great if they brought him back. This player is exactly what Madrid needs. I don't know what you all think, but I see Madrid's center-backs as weak, fearful, and prone to making mistakes With Sergio Ramos, at least Madrid's defensive line would command respect.

Compared to the Ramos era, they were very strong, and with a style of play that... wow... you know yourself, especially when Mourinho was the coach... '

Currently, Real Madrid's defense is plagued by injuries, with many of their top defenders repeatedly injured. They're also good and talented, but injuries are a very serious problem. As for center-backs, fortunately, they have a promising newcomer, Huisen, who can be relied upon as a center-back.

Luis Enrique's reason for refusing to recruit Vinicius because he was once part of Barcelona is indeed excessive, but it makes much more sense because PSG's current attack line is so strong that they don't need another striker who could potentially affect the team's overall performance. The Premier League may be quite interested in Vinicius, but it seems unlikely that Real Madrid will let go of such a key player and will try to negotiate a new contract with a salary increase. Four clubs in Saudi Arabia are also ready to accommodate Vinicius with a fantastic salary, but whether he is willing to move there, we will see how Vinicius' fate will be in the upcoming transfer window because it will be clearer.

Should Madrid fulfill Vinicius wish? Increase salary? Want to surpass Mbappe? If so, Madrid should let Vinicius go instead of fulfilling the desire to increase salary. Let's be realistic, the salary must match the contribution. Take this season for example, does he deserve a salary above $30 million 

The only way for him to stay is to lower his ego, follow the coach's wishes and increase his contribution.

They'd let him go rather than cause unrest in the dressing room and club. He's no longer a small player like we've always said in the past and he's played with a lot of emotionally intelligent players, he should take some things from them and add to his game,  this shite behaviour will never get him that contract he demands from Real Madrid. He's not been creatively good and consistent as he used to be, I don't think I want him gone, but he should fix all of the noise all around him.

That fcking news always appears on my social media page. I don't know how that's possible.
As we know, AC Milan is always willing to recruit "the old guys." Luca Modric and Ibrahimovic (in the past). Thiago Silva and Sergio Ramos (except Jay Idzez) are the next ones to fill the hole position on defense. Jay Idzez is one that Indonesia's national team has on Alegri's radar to strengthen the squad. If we look at how he performed at Sassuolo, it's normal that Alegri wants him. But, if based on experience, Sergio Ramos and Thiago Silva will become the primary target. Milan also haven't problem with old player back, because on past, they ever have Maldini. So, who alegri wants between them?, or Alegri want all the target join on team?

Rumors regarding transfers of AC Milan are based on their tradition of acquiring experienced players, such as case with Ibrahimovic, and links with Sergio Ramos and Thiago Silva can be viewed in this way since they would give team with very experienced, world level leadership right away. But fact that they are interested in young player such as Jay Idzes shows that Milan is also seeking young talent in future, which is another plan aimed at good performance in present and not long experience. Milan tends to mix these two plans at same time, and final choice will be based on what club needs most at this time. Winner now or player that they can train.

I'd prefer Milan to re-sign Thiago Silva back. You know he has very good relationship with the club. He's also skilled defender, and he always have spirit to win. He can defend in whatever the situation is. A CB that gives everything to the club.

It's very reasonable to sign him instead of Ramos or Idzes. Especially when it's six months contract only.

The transfer policy of AC Milan has never been the same since they do not fear acquiring players with years of experience when they feel such players can provide leadership and stability immediately. The previous experiences of Ibrahimovic and Modric confirm that Milan attach importance to mentality and not only on physical ability. Meanwhile, the scouting discussion on Jay Idzes indicates that the club is also not just gathering names on the experience front, but also attempting to construct a defensive foundation in the future. The selection of Allegri between Ramos and Thiago Silva will be based on the needs in the short term, and Idzes is the long-term project. It is traditionally an amalgamation of both styles in Milan, and thus it would not be huge of them to achieve at least two of these.

The only advantage Real Madrid can maintain is that there has been no offer from another club that is able to pay his release clause and meet Vinicius demands. If the situation is like what Liverpool experienced when trying to retain TAA, Real Madrid might be nervous because they are threatened with losing one of their mainstay players. Real Madrid must convince Vinicius to stay. He must also work professionally and honor his contract by showing his best performance. I think, currently, Real Madrid is the only best club for him, he can achieve everything there.

If negotiation with Vinicius Junior still delay bad impact for Real Madrid its self has possibility the player leaving as free agent players, likely what happen with Trent Alexander-Arnold when leaving Liverpool after his contract expiring and the club can't get anything that players leave club as free agent. Vinicius have one year contract left before expiring at June 2027 and Madrid should reach deal with him before this season ended.
If can't get deal until the end of this season Madrid ability to sell Vinicius to other club interested to sign him, I think one year contract left enough for Madrid earn up 100 to 150 million euro depend the player potential and has consistent performance this season. I am Madrid fans so sad if Vinicius leaving Madrid not reach agreement deal for renewing contract.

[Velvet78]

Personally, Vini has accepted to leave Europe to Suadi because of money. He has seen it that the competition is high for him to win ballon d'or. If this is true, he might regret his actions. Neymar was a great player but injury didn't make him shine for long after he left for SPL. Vini should take his time before making his final decision.

He hasn't accepted anything yet. This source just claims that lawyers have begun working on that after seeing an opportunity there. But it isn't certain yet whether Vinicus Junior would like to leave Europe yet...




All of them are really good targets for Liverpool. They are just looking for Salah's replacement as far as I can see from this. Arne Slot has already started to bench him recently.

Olise (23) and Kenan (20) are the most impressive alternatives among those players because of their performances this year. 

[Adbitco]

If I am Kobi Mainoo I will not go on loan, I will move on permanent deal, Ruben Amorim has showed the world that he did not believe him, we all how good Kobi Mainoo was when he started playing for Manchester United, he get his first call from England the season he make his debut in the Premier League which show that he is a good player and he will be one of the best players in the world, Manchester United has show that they don’t value and if I am Kobi Mainoo i will move on a permanent to another and leave Manchester United that looks like a team that will never succeed.

If Mainoo want to play 2026 World Cup he should leave Manchester United in January transfer window, he wanted to leave before the season but Amorim stop the move and said he need him and he is not giving him a minute to play, Amorim will never succeed at Manchester United if he continues with the kind of substitution he made, and since he did not trust Mainoo, he should allow him to leave.

What if the club doesn't want to release him on a permanent move and can only allow him to move on a loan. You know so long as contract is concerned, one party can't just wake up one morning and say he wants this or that and his being given that thing. It can only happen when both parties are in agreement. So maybe, I think he might want to leave on permanent basis but the club refused and can only allow him on loans . That's just my thoughts on this.

[abhiseshakana]

I don't think leaving on a permanent basis in January will favour Kobbie Mainoo more than leaving for a loan deal. The young lad was once regarded as one of the best talents in Europe but since Ruben Amorim arrived at the club, he's not be getting much playing time to prove his worth so leaving on loan in January will be better. He should try go to a club where regular football is assured so he can then use the opportunity and show the world that he's still the Mainoo that broke into the first team of Manchester United as a teenager. If he succeeds in doing that, hus market value will significantly improve and and he might get a call up to represent England in next year's FIFA World Cup which will then increase his chances of joining top European clubs in permanent basis if he decides to leave Manchester United next summer

It is quite reasonable if Kobbie Mainoo has been feeling depressed all this time, because in Amorim's eyes, Kobbie Mainoo doesn't seem to have any role, while he really needs playing time so that he can have a chance to join the England national team at the World Cup later. So the only way is to leave Man United because if he insists on staying there, then he will always sit on the bench all day long. A loan move is the best option at the moment.

Frankly, I am also surprised by what Amorim chose, even though before he came, Koobie Maino had quite a good performance, and he was even considered a talented young player, but for Amorim, Mainoo seemed invisible.

The only way Vinicius Junior can extend his contract at Real Madrid is if Real Madrid board can honour what Vinicius Junior wants.

Should Madrid fulfill Vinicius wish? Increase salary? Want to surpass Mbappe? If so, Madrid should let Vinicius go instead of fulfilling the desire to increase salary. Let's be realistic, the salary must match the contribution. Take this season for example, does he deserve a salary above $30 million 

The only way for him to stay is to lower his ego, follow the coach's wishes and increase his contribution.

I don’t see him deserving what he is demanding, he has not been impactful since Mbappe joined the club, asking for a higher pay than Mbappe is not deserving for me. When you look at vini numbers in term of goal contributions he can’t be compared to what Mbappe is doing for the team. We have seen both players in big matches for Real Madrid and I don’t have to lament on who actually bring most useful impact on the field.

Vinicius Jr has always been impactful to Real Madrid squad even when Mbappe came in, so it will be a wrong statement to say that he wasn't impactful. I can agree that he didn't score many goals, but he assisted a lot of goals that were scored, so isn't that an impact? Real Madrid is a team that is full of great talents who deserve to earn higher but the reason why Kylian Mbappe earn higher was as a result of his performance at PSG before he came to Real Madrid and before he came, Vinicius was the spotlight of the team, so a salary top-up isn't a bad request at all.

For me I don’t think Real Madrid will pay him above 30million a year, so he should lower his ego and accept what Real Madrid are currently offering him. He his a good player no doubt but can any club offer him what he his demanding? I don’t think so. Well let see how it all ends.

I don't even think that Vinicius is greedy, every player has the right to ask the club for an increment in their pay, so it's left for the club to accept or not. After all, every player wishes to earn higher and Vinicius is basically acting based on how long he has devoted his career at Real Madrid not even as a result of wanting to earn higher than Mbappe. When David de Gea asked for a salary increment at Manchester United and the club refused to honor his request didn't he left after his contract was due? so if Vinicius is asking for an increment in his salary before he signs a new contract i think that shouldn't cause an uproar, if his contract ends in 2027 he can leave Real Madrid and join another club who can meet up with his demand.

Like you said he didn’t score much last season but he assisted much. Let me bring it to you notice Vinicius only assisted only 8 league goals last season that in over 30 matches he played. He recorded a total of 18 G/A last season since the 20/21 season. This is a player who is more familiar with the league already and with Mbappe joining the squad we were hoping for a much better G/A from him but instead he is getting sloppy.

For what he his demanding he needs to totally do better, I don’t even think anything club can pay him what he is asking for currently, he his not a goals merchant. To be paid 40million is what he his asking for and only Cristiano Ronaldo have earned that in Real Madrid. Vini get at least a ballon D’or then you ask of such income.

[tbterryboy]

Perhaps the only club in Europe that could accommodate Vinicius is PSG, but I haven't heard any rumors regarding PSG's interest in him. There he will be a complement to Luis Enrique squad, he can be placed on the left wing, while the right wing already has Dembele.
As you said, it's highly unlikely Real Madrid will let him go, but if Vinicius sticks to his principle of wanting a better salary, Real Madrid might consider other options. Finding new players is more difficult than retaining the players we currently have, especially since every newly brought in player may not be able to adapt to the atmosphere at a new club. I think Real Madrid management must be able to find a way out so that Vinicius stays.

Most chances at the end of this season, Vinícius Jr is going to be joined Saudi Pro League because no other club in Europe going to dare have his services on these points all is already set now it is matter of time and he and Rodrygo is going to be out of Real Madrid.

His contract is going to end at the end of 2027 but most chances Real Madrid will not take any chance and done the deal after end of this season because this will give them good funds his demand of equal salary to Mbappé is surely not bad but now due to arrival of Xabi Alonso strategy is changed, and he wants players those can give him better results. Still 6 months things can take changes because Real Madrid management wants better results and due to recent rift they were not consistent but if all sorted out hopefully he will extend his contract.

@Abbatty might be surprised when real Madrid will raise his money because there are players who also ask for increase and they comply to him, it wasn't a demand for what the club cannot afford, he deserve a little higher from his basic one, some will think is an act of selfishness and greed from the player but is not, sometimes there can be confidential discussion or hint to a player that a higher paying club could be coming for him so instead of leaving the club he wants to stay he will just requested for an addition, so actually is not bad if other club can even give him more than that.
