⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Slow death]

Barcelona is changing their mind again. They're now interesting to trigger Rashford's release clause. IMO, it's a steal for Barcelona to acquire him just only for 30m while his actual value was around 60m. He can blend to the team's plan. He also provides good result for Barcelona's depth.
I know his salary may be big, but who knows he may be able to cut his salary to meet what Barcelona demanded. It's no brainer deal to acquire a good backup winger that can provide assists and scored some goals during his loan.

They're dumb enough if they miss 30m bargain deal for Rashford.

Marcus Rashford has proved to be an asset to Barcelona but I don’t think Barcelona has the money to sign Rashford for 30m. The only way this deal is going to work is if they somehow manage to get Manchester United to accept a lower fee for the player. In my opinion, it’s not a big ask since Manchester United do not want Rashford back anyway. The new manager would be looking to sign some new players so getting rid of the old ones would naturally be on his to-do-list.

We don't know Manchester United's current situation, but they've changed managers, and perhaps the new manager will want Marcus Rashford in the team and want to utilize him next year. If Barcelona can't get him, I think he could play a good role in Manchester United's restructuring. Rashford performed very well with Barcelona. He adapted to the team quickly and had successful matches.

I like Rashford, he needs to stay at Barcelona to better develop his skills. Today there was a game between Barcelona and Real Madrid and Rashford was sitting on the bench, but after 80 minutes the Barcelona coach put Rashford on the field to play and unbelievably, as soon as he entered the field he managed to have a great opportunity to score a goal.

It was just him against the Real Madrid goalkeeper and unfortunately Rashford managed to miss in a situation where he shouldn't have missed. Rashford's shot didn't even reach the Real Madrid goal, it went way off target. Honestly, that's not a mistake a professional player makes.

[Taricoins]

I also heard that Rashford still wants a high salary, maybe because he has rediscovered his form at Barcelona, I think if there is no agreement he can return to the Premier, maybe with the arrival of the new Man Utd coach, he can be called back, or stay in La Liga if Atletico Madrid is interested, but there is no latest news regarding this.
Speaking of taxes, seriously I just found out from you, the salary tax cut is up to 50%, that's very high. Curious if the big leagues are the same, especially the premier league?

If Rashford need increase of is salary i don't think he can continue in the laliga because Barcelona don't have huge money to pay for only one player and if they didn't try to convince Rashford he will likely leave Barcelona and go back to Manchester United and continue is career in the team, and since they will like to sigh new coach and if the new coach is interesting with Rashford he can probably return to the club and they will be stronger then before but now that Manchester United are not doing well and they are not even participating in the Champions League this season he can make Rashford continue is career in the laliga because he needs the Champions League.

Funny enough Man United won't even make it to the Champions League next season, so if Rashford knows what is good for him he has to take a pay cut like every one else. But honestly I feel Rashford asking for an higher salary is just a shakedown, he will still settle with a lower pay because the project believes in him and he believes in the project so Rashford will definitely stay.

What was Barcelona's reason of having a rethink after it was initially reported that they had no intentions of keeping Marcus Rashford beyond the end of the current campaign? Rashford didn't waste no time before he adapted to Barcelona's playing pattern, that's very rare for player that's never played for any Spanish team before so he rightly deserves to have his contract extended beyond the season. If signed, Rashford will certainly be a good addition to Barcelona. He's been a good signing this summer and I believe he'll do even better when signed on permanent basis

Majority of players that leave the Premier League to play in La Liga usually does well. Seeing Marcus Rashford perform this good isn't catching us by surprise. Manchester United also makes some players especially the wingers look terrible, take a look at Sancho, lately they loaned Garnacho as well, if we can be honest, United doesn't know how to use their wingers, that's the problem and reason why any player in those positions moves out of the club, is likely to see them perform very well, if Barcelona can afford him, it is not a bad idea to retain Rashford.

Me too !!!
Marcus Rashford is such a fantastic player and honestly his signing make  a lot of sense like his contribution at left winge make a help for Hansi Flick and probably that's why Hansi Flick is abusing his team staff to sign him permanently. Everyone is impressed by him after make such classical performance. Thus far Deco already negotiating with Manchester united regarding through his signing but I hope soon they will finalize the deal.

Besides that Marcus Rashford also express his opinion that he love Barcelona and he has childhood dream to play for Barcelona. So Marcus Rashford also love Barcelona and I think this the reason why Hansi Flick is trying to push his stuff to secure his deal. However his performance is also make sense because in La Liga he has 2 goals and 7 assist as well as in UCL he has 4 goals in 6 match with 2 assist. Honestly this is quite impressive.....

He really deserves to be the player of Barcelona

Enderick, the 19-year-old former Real Madrid talent, after leaving Real Madrid to join Olympique Lyonnais, scored his first goal against Lille in his first game for the club. How happy the young brazillian fees right now, to be in the first team and to have a successful career path. This marks his first goal also in the 2025/2026 season.

Hopefully, Olympique Lyonnais will sign him after the loan contract expires.

I think we are simply just rushing things already, while I wouldn’t say that he will fail at the club because we all know that they talent is there but what has been missing is just lack of playing time and it is something that I cannot blame any Real Madrid manager for because it’s seriously a difficult period for any manager to heavily depend on a youngster like this leaving Veterans on the bench who poses more risk for them than him. Also we need to understand the loan terms properly I think Real Madrid didn’t include the option of Lyon making his deal permanent because they will want their player back and it’s really what I think will happen with him after this loan spell because Florentino Perez still rates him high

It's good news for Endrick, but Real paid a lot of money for him. I don't remember if Lyon had a buyout option, but Real will at least want to recoup the money they paid. I don't think Lyon can afford those figures. Perhaps if Xabi Alonso is sacked, the new manager will consider Endrick in his plans. Endrick could go out on loan to gain experience and then return to become part of the new Real Madrid team. I think Endrick will also want to continue his career at Real Madrid.

It's good to see Endrick scored his first goal at french league. However, a part of me hopes he won't back to Madrid. You know why? He's gonna be third choice striker. So he won't get any minutes again. I absolutely agree for lyon to ask Madrid to sign him permanently. I wanna see him to start striking in whatever the club he plays, but it's impossible when it comes to -

Madrid. As you know Madrid has Mbappe and Garcia. So where is that kind going to play with those strikers are getting fit?

It seems Endrick's best path to leave from Madrid, then play regularly to develop himself. So he can back to Madrid with his best version. Like or not, this is the only best way for him to growth.

Araujo has been at Barcelona for many years. Since his time at Barcelona B. But honestly I can't say he is a great defender at this level. He can't meet the team standards in most of the games. 

This is why I understand Hansi Flick's will to send him from the team. About 40 million euros fee, I'm not sure if there would be a European team to pay that much. But maybe with the hope of him to improve his skills in time as he is still young, there might be...

Under Xavi, Araujo was arguably one of the best CB in Europe. While under Hansi Flick, Araujo’s  performance has declined significantly, I’m not surprised that they want him gone at this point. I think it’s the best decision for both parties, Araujo is obviously not his best in this Barcelona system, and could possibly do better in a different team.

I agree

The last games I watched of Barcelona and Real Madrid el classico Araujo was always losing his side very easily. Before with Xavi he was said to be Vini Jr father in a jokenly way because he could always block the brazilian player and prevent further attacks, making the left side unbeatable.

I don't remember either whether they have a buyout option or not (I would say no) but, even if they do, for sure Real Madrid would have a buyback clause too, just like they did when they sold Nico Paz to Como, who is now coming back to Real Madrid in a few months. Endrick had a lot of problems this season but under Ancelotti he showed great quality, let's not forget he is still a kid at the end. He has a great potential. If I had to keep one among Vinicius, Rodrygo and Endrick, I would take a risk and go with Endrick, I feel like he shown more than the other two at Endrick's age.

I have never been in support of the above handle,  widely known for spreading misinformation and shit, but then, I have always been a firm supporter on letting Araujo leave Barcelona way back to the managerial career of Xavi Henandez. He's always wanted to be seen hardworking and everything, but he does, literally nothing. I think, after that criticism from Ilkay Gundugan last season and also the blunder committed this season, it is about time he shown the exit completely.

Idea of selling player who was star of Barcelona defense mere months ago is bold, but he does not appear to match new direction of Hansi Flick. With Xavi, Araujo was able to battle with his strength and speed but with Flicks system it must be at right time and very high defensive line which shows any of his mistakes. Selling him would be good to all groups since Barcelona would use money to bring in new players and Araujo may do well in another club that has less hard style. His many past injuries could be another cause of struggle since he may have been slowed down and could no longer easily keep up with very fast and tiring training that Flick was giving him. If he moves to leading club in England or Germany, he would be back to being world wide player in defence and Barcelona would be able to focus on young players who can fit with their new plan.

Finally, it's now Barcelona are waking up to their slumber of letting this guy go. In my own opinion, this is a player that should have been sold long ago because he is too error prone in big games and he is not good enough to captain a huge team like Barcelona, so I think that it's a step in the right direction if they can sell him off.
Where the problem lies, is the amount placed on him, because €40M is too much for any club to pay for his services, and I don't think any club will want to pay such an amount to acquire his signature considering how unreliable he has proven to be over the years.

It was a good performance from Endrick, the talent have always been there, but lack of playing time have actually been the absolute challenge, especially when you’re playing for Real Madrid a club that like quick performances and they wouldn’t give you time to adapt, when you’ve loosed form and starts playing badly I believe that would always be a challenge, it was a good decision for him to have taken to get some experience and playing time, well I would still believe that his mind is at Real Madrid, I think it’s just a loan and no permanent deal involved or a buy option clause that could be activated.

But if I’m this player I will get a permanent deal, so I can have a more playing time, there are so many big clubs that would want to have his signature if he considers leaving on a permanent deal.

At first Madrid fans made this player the star boy in the media but when is time to pushing him into the light they switched off the light on Endrick, the way and manner Madrid over hype some players always lead them to their downfall and it will be hard to raise back again. So happy to have seen him get a goal and if he continues like this I'm sure some other clubs if not Lyon would be calling for his full service. Madrid made this player almost lose those abilities he have and now I expect more from him. He has to market himself completely to get a place where he'd be part of something.

Real Madrid didn't include a buyout clause when Endrick was loaned out because Real Madrid themselves considered the player to have a bright future, so they tried to secure him, even if Endrick had to be loaned to another club to give him the opportunity to improve his individual skills. Endrick is a long-term project for Real Madrid, so they certainly want to secure the player and won't let him leave easily and the loan is nothing more than to gain experience.

Because at Lyon, he could get more playing time and develop his skills. Currently, Endrick hasn't met the coach's expectations, so he's not in Xabi Alonso's plans. The defeat to Barcelona could have a slight effect on Xabi Alonso and I don't think he will get a long chance at Real Madrid because if he gets another bad result, it's not impossible that Xabi Alonso will be fired.

If Endrick can play optimally with Lyon then don't expect Real Madrid to let him go permanently, because it is a signal that Madrid can put this player for long-term investment and another fact is that there is no agreement with Lyon regarding making him permanent after the loan ends. If Endrick really wanted to leave Real Madrid then his performance should be unstable so there is no consideration for him, imo. Madrid brought in this player by spending 47 million and currently his market value is only 25 million this means that Madrid does not want to suffer greater losses. The scenario is different if Endrick wants to be a main player at Real Madrid, then he has to play optimally with Lyon.

I think Manchester United really knows what they are doing, like they shouldn't let this guy leave the club Marcus Rashford is a one of a kind talent who can really help Manchester United in this their trying time, now the coach has left they need to bring back this players to the team to help strengthen the team, I know some might say what has he done during his stay at Manchester United, but I think that will be the dumbest question ever ask because I can still remember too well that Marcus Rashford was never a bad player at Manchester United if not for the coaches are pair pressure, like they shouldn't just let this guy go that's my take on this.

[Frankolala]

Funny enough Man United won't even make it to the Champions League next season, so if Rashford knows what is good for him he has to take a pay cut like every one else. But honestly I feel Rashford asking for an higher salary is just a shakedown, he will still settle with a lower pay because the project believes in him and he believes in the project so Rashford will definitely stay.

Would you blame Rashford for asking for a big pay, I will blame United for throwing huge amount of money on these players that ain't too quality enough to add valuable impacts constantly when they're on the field. If he doesn't accept pay cut, he will end up missing out being with a quality team like Barcelona. When his contract expires, he will be given lesser than he expected.
