⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[DaNNy001]

After Isak’s injury we (Liverpool) should move for him in January. I know he’s not a CF but he can play in the forward positions. I think £65m is a good deal for Semenyo. I really hope we are in the running to sign him if Bournemouth are willing to sell him in January.

It would be tough given that Manchester City and United are in forefront for the deal so for Liverpool to sign they'll have to pay heavily, I know they have the funds, based on what they spent this summer but battling over a player when both Manchester teams are deeply interested in the person won't be easy. I feel he'll go to Manchester City.

The player must consider the long term not only about the money they get this can be subjective depending on the orientation of the player himself, and Manchester City is certainly the best place to get success under Guardiola that attracts many players to enter the ranks of Manchester City is consistent development and long-term promise than other teams at the moment, while if Manchester United I think they can not promise anything other than money.

Even if he wants to go to Manchester City I doubt that guadiola will need a player like him although he has proven himself to be very good player at Newcastle but his move to Liverpool is certainly not a fruitful one and this would have even decreased his worth and value in transfer market. For me Liverpool selling isak would just give them a lose in the market deal so I would prefer they manage him and hope he returns in good form and performance.

At first I was surprised about whether I knew it wrong. Bayern Munich had an obligation to buy Jackson while loaning him. But it turns out that he needed to made 40 appearances in the starting lineup or by playing for at least 45 minutes. 

In this situation that condition isn't going to be active. I really wonder how he will end up. Chelsea can still use him as a rotation player if they don't manage to find a buyer for him. His market value is 45 million euros and if they ask a fee around that then no way they would find someone in Europe at least.

I really don’t see the reason for so much debate about Nicolas Jackson and Bayern Munich, we know that he is on loan at Bayern, and they also inserted a buy on clause, but Bayern have already made it obvious that they will not want to make the move permanent, because they don’t have that plans with him, so when this situation happens that is to tell you that when his loan expires he will be going back to Chelsea where he belongs and that is where he signed an 8 years contract, so if he doesn’t have a solution with the Chelsea Board and his agent isn’t also able to get him a new contract somewhere else and I believe there is so many clubs that will want Jackson currently which is why he has to play very well to have clubs circulating for his signature.

Right now Chelsea doesn’t have any prolific Striker and they can still make use of Jackson which will be a very good player for them, the only thing that Jackson can do now is work on his finishing, he should be going back to Chelsea and playing for them, because Bayern isn’t making his loan permanent.

I think Nicholas Jackson wouldn't find it difficult to find another club especially in England where he has already proven his worth but the issue here is that no big side might want to sign him since non of these team seem to be in search of a striker at the moment except for clubs in other leagues like Napoli who seem to be having injury problems in their attacking line with Romelu Lukaku being sidelined for some time now. I don't see a situation where Chelsea might be interested in retaining the striker so I expect Chelsea to either extend his loan deal with Bayern or let him find a new club in January.

I think Ancelotti was too hard on Endrick, and Xabi is also doing the same thing. Endrick is young and has so much potential, he just needs a chance to develop his skills but he’s not going to get minutes from Xabi.

I don't think you people actually watch this Endrick with the way you guys talk about him. He is not all that. An average player at best. He is not Madrid quality and doesn't even deserve to be on the bench. He has two great qualities, and those are shot power and accuracy. There is nowhere else where he is exceptional. Not good at hold-up play, not good in tight spaces, not elite at finishing or positioning, and he's not cool in front of goal; he lacks composure. Added to the fact that he is not tall. For a striker not to be tall and be elite, he has to be extremely good, like Aguero, and currently, we see Alvarez, even though it still limits him.

Endrick should have left in the summer for a smaller team where he would get minutes to build his confidence and develop himself. Aside from his height, all the qualities he lacks are things that can be worked on. In a club like Lyon, he may get the opportunity to improve on those qualities, but he can't do that in Madrid. I would even start Gonzalo Garcia ahead of him.

I wouldn't be so harsh with Endrick, let's not forget he is only 19 years old. He was growing a lot while playing for Palmeiras in Brazil because, well, he was actually playing. After moving to Spain his growth stopped because he was not good enough to play, and there are not to many 18 years old who can play at Real Madrid. His mistake was his stubbornness, he should have move to another team immediately without wasting half of the season (plus the full last season).

If you know the pressure was not only coming from the club, but also his parent. Endrick's parents want his son to fight his place on Madrid. That's the reason he was being so stubborn. If his parent guided him well, they will force him to leave in order to get minutes instead of stay and wait for a coach that doesn't trust him.
Hopefully, his parent change their mind, and let their son to move away from Madrid, though it's as a loan only.

I'm not being too hard on him; I'm just stating it as it is. The mistake he made was rating himself higher than he already is. He was deceived by how he performed in the Brazilian league. Even while at Palmeiras, there were times when he struggled, so he should have expected things like this in Madrid.
He shouldn't have gone with the new pele route and all. Things like that put more pressure on him.
It was obvious for anyone who knows football to know he is not as good as he says he is from the first time you watch him.

I thought he would leave last summer, but he didn't. Well, at least he's looking for a loan now. I believe that would help him. With a lot of hard work, I think he is a player that can do well in a mid table club.

Rashford has been impressive for Barcelona so far and there's a possibility that Barcelona would trigger the clause, maybe as an appreciation for helping them this season. Moreover Lewandowski might leave and even though Barcelona sign a new striker, they would support which is where Rashford steps in.

Barcelona actually wanted to make Rashford's move permanent, but the problem was that they didn't have the funds, and the transfer fee was prohibitive. Barcelona would need to renegotiate with Manchester United to secure a permanent deal. Furthermore, Rashford would also have to accept a pay cut due to Barcelona's financial troubles.

[jostorres]

Bayern Munich should consider keeping him after his loan because they never can tell what will happen next season as they may need him if Harry Kane is injured but if they decide to lest him go, selling him won't be a problem to Chelsea because he is not a bad player it's unfortunate that he has to go where the number one striker is doing so well that the manager doesn't consider using him.

Nicolas Jackson at Bayern Munich is realistically looking not easy because they are watching him and second half of this season is going to be important for him, if he is able to stay on same level without any complications then most chances they will negotiate with Chelsea about his future but in case of problems, it's going to be not easy for him and for Bayern Munich.

Harry Kane's contract is going to be ending in 2027 but most chances they will talk about extension in 2026 for continuing here for few more years due to his impressive performance and good relationship with Kompany. Chances are high for offering him long term contract which could be gone till his retirement from soccer, but all are depending on talk in summer 2026.

Definitely, Rashford will accept a pay cut because I think he loves it there in Barcelona because Flickr has hopes in him. I thought that there was an agreement initially, before Rashford was loan but what I don't know is if there was a price negotiation.

I don't think that United will take Rashford back into the team, they'll prefer to send him on loan to a different club if Barcelona is no longer interested in the deal.

This was expected. There was speculation a long time that he would move to Lyon and thats what happened in the end. This will be good for Endrick to get some playing time and to get some experience because in Real Madrid he dosent have space and i think that even when he returns next season that he wont have playing time in Real Madrid so i think that Endrick might even extend the loan on summer

Nicolas Jackson has not lived up to expectations in Bayern Munich. He has played for about 407 minutes in the Bundesliga and scored just three goals. He has scored two goals in the UEFA Champions League after playing for 129 minutes. He might likely return to Chelsea or might be sent on loan to another club since the Blues have plenty of strikers. Strikers like Liam Delap, Marc Guiu, João Pedro, and Estêvão are quality players. I also think that Munich could also decide to keep him if he improves in the second half of the season.

[Alex077]

Well, it seems like he wants to stay. This does bring forward a question, is he being forced out? Surely not right? After all these years of serving Manchester city, they would not do something like that to him right? I know that football has become a lot more unforgiving in recent times but it’s surely not that bad. Two things are possible. First of all, Manchester City is just bored and they want to see some changes. Or the other thing could be that these all are just rumours and absolutely not true at all.

There are always many rumors about changing when a team does not get all the fans want or when the team owners want even more because of the money they are spending in new players and salary. But I can not see a manager doing better work with Manchester City than Pepe.

If he leaves who would come to make the team better than it is?

Enzo Maresca said that it's all speculation about him going to Manchester City when others asked him and he says he is focused with Chelsea.

I seriously think his bonds with the sheikhs are as close as they could get. They gave him carte blanche when the crisis began if I remember correctly and he was free to choose his own future terms in that most recent contract. Crises can happen and for now they have gotten over it. Many solid results in the recent weeks, everything in good shape in the league .

Still a bit of work to do in the Champions League, but nothing frightening. And I am sure Guardiola knows there is no club that could or would pay him more I guess. You never know besides his main salary what other agreements they have in place. He must like that relationship with them

Not that Manchester city fans are bored or the management want something new. Besides who gets tired of the good results and trophies? Pep is clearing the air because his contract is due to expire in the summer of 2027 and journalists has always been asking him if he's going to leave at the end of his contract expires. Pep don't want to keep the suspense anymore so he's making it clear that he is going to remain in Manchester city. As long as Pep is willing to continue with city the management will always be willing to extend his contract. Pep is delivering and I don't see any coach that's doing better than him presently.

Is so unfortunate that Barcelona are always unlucky to sign players because of their financial situation. They have missed out on a lot of players that could have joined the team and improved the performance of the team but they always find it difficult to get such players and it's a pity. Rashford has been doing well since arriving at the club and I think with Marcus Rashford their LW position have been solved. It's unfortunate that they can't keep him despite wanting to. It's better to stay at Barcelona than going back to Manchester United because he gets to play in the champions league and also gets more playing time, also the pay cut wouldn't be a problem for him.

I don't know what they're thinking but that's just life, when you have a good thing you won't be contented and so you will seek for more thinking it's not good enough untill you loose it and realize you just made a mistake.
If they don't keep Pep they will struggle to have a good coach just as every other club as been struggling to get a good coach. Guardiola is not as productive as before but is still capable of giving good results.

[LGD2Business]

It's all official and Endrick is going to Olympique Lyon!!

I think it was the best move for Endrick. He wasn't getting any playing time at Real Madrid. In the limited time he did play, he showed how talented he is. He'll get good playing time at Lyon and showcase his skills. The French league is no small league, he'll face tough matches there. It's a great choice for a young player to gain experience. As far as I know, Real Madrid didn't include a buy option when they loan him. So he'll definitely return to the club in the summer. Maybe they'll loan him out for another season.

[Stable090]

Chelsea shouldn’t just keep Jackson, it’s better they just sell him, Jackson doesn’t have any use at Chelsea, since he wanted to leave Chelsea, and he wanted to be at Bayern Munich, he is already at Bayern Munich, he should either remain there, or just look for another team and go, Jackson doesn’t have anything to offer Chelsea, so coming to stay at Chelsea is of no use.

Jackson lacks finishing, thats one of his main problem, but Jackson was given enough time at Chelsea but he didn’t improve, and their is no changes in Jackson’s performance even at Bayern Munich, so even if can return to Chelsea he won’t really change.

[GbitG]

Yes, the more rumors circulate, the stronger Barcelona's desire to keep this player. In fact, Barcelona is currently trying to release this forward with a £26M release clause, but the competition will be tough to get him next season. Rashford is an important figure at Barcelona, ​​

Rashford has been impressive for Barcelona so far and there's a possibility that Barcelona would trigger the clause, maybe as an appreciation for helping them this season. Moreover Lewandowski might leave and even though Barcelona sign a new striker, they would support which is where Rashford steps in.

Ohh wow that's awesome !!!
I think now Barcelona squad depth is perfect, like every player is perfectly in his position. At Manchester United, his performance was not too good, but that's why they loaned him to Aston Villa and now to Barcelona although is such a fantastic player and honestly he proven himself to be great at Barca. Here in Barcelona his attributes is absolutely outstanding. In every single match he delivers superb performance....

After Marcus Rashford Barcelona should also need to the two transfer. One is the striker, like the replacement for Robert Lewandowski and another one is center backs. I think for striking they need Julian Alveraz and for center backs Bastoni which they already put in the transfer hub.

It's all official and Endrick is going to Olympique Lyon!!

Honestly, this is the best decision because Endrick have hidden talents in him that he can only unleash when he gets more playing time, since he couldn't get it at Real Madrid, he will surely have enough playing time at Olympique Lyonnais. Perhaps the club is not doing bad, they are 5th in the table so Endrick should be able to adapt to their pattern of play. This move is very vital for Endrick because it will help boost his confidence spirit and keep him fit against the upcoming world cup since he will be representing his country Brazil.
