⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[dezoel]

Kante to Fenerbahce happened one way or another, there were a lot of talks for 48 hours about how it might fall through and everything looked very unlikely and at one point people though it was cancelled at the last minute because they couldn't handle it.

But now that we are looking at it, we are seeing how things are happening, literally presidents of both nations got together to make it happen and the clubs thanked them. Well, one king and one president at least lol. Unlikely scenario but it worked out for both of them.

It's best for Endrick to find a new club or for Lyon to buy him permanently, as a return to Real Madrid would undoubtedly see him return to the bench. Mbappé's position at Real Madrid is irreplaceable, regardless of who the manager is. Endrick is still young and has a long career ahead of him, and he's a talented player. It's time for him to find a club that can provide him with ample playing time to further develop his career.

This is just the best thing that can happen to his career because relegating to the bench at real madrid is inevitable if he ever returns there now. Mbappe and the rest of other attacking players are ahead of him in the pecking order, so changing of club or staying put at Olympic Lyon now is the best thing for him now, since he is being played week in week out at Lyon, and it's what would aid his development faster, than seating on the bench at real madrid that minutes will hardly comes by.

Real Madrid has many substitute players so it is better to move where the team will prioritize as a main player so that more playing time and fast development. Real Madrid is a team that many players are interested in is not good for players who are developing like Endrick who need more time to achieve what is expected. I think Olympic Lyon is the right club and they need Endrick. Mbappe and other Real Madrid rotation players cannot be competed with yet, it is better to look for a club that is willing to recruit permanently is the right solution.

Still cool, I like that Real Madrid are not considering selling him permanently cause it would've been a lose for them, Endrick is very talented with lots of potential to be a great player for Real Madrid in the future so it made sense that they sent him on loan to get more playing time and improve his skill in a different environment, atleast it would boost his confidence when he gets back.

 I think that Real Madrid shouldn't rush his return, they could send him on another loan till he's fully ready to fight for a spot in the starting lineup, he'll even be more matured by then, but if they feel they're comfortable with his current performance at Marseille and need him in Madrid then it's their choice to bring him back.

We’ll see how he adapts in the new club. This is something completely new for him, and he’s moving to a league where he’ll have to show his individual abilities more than he did in Italy. Form is temporary, and he’s at an age where he can get back to his best, which i don’t doubt, because he’s a really good forward who can make a difference and carry the team when things are toughest. We’ll see how he settles in, but in my opinion, there is still hope for Lookman

If he can improve his individual qualities and continue to contribute gradually, then I'm sure Lookman will adapt well, because the two leagues are essentially not that different, although La Liga is slightly more competitive in my opinion. At Atletico Madrid, Lookman will be more motivated to improve his individual qualities because if he can't adapt, he'll lose his place in the squad as a player needed by the team. Like it or not Lookman himself will have to perform much better.

There's always hope for those who are willing to fight even when the going gets tough. Even if Lookman's playing style resembles Lukaku's, it's a different story. We'll see how Lookman adapts, but I'm confident he'll reach his best form in La Liga as Atletico Madrid is a big club that pushes its players to perform better, in the hope of not losing his place in the squad.

Unfortunately, Arbeloa doesn't like all the players available today. Just look at the starting eleven he put out. It's very different from Xabi. There are some player names that have started to be rarely used since he arrived. Take Guler, for example. Arbeloa is indeed a coach who is known to prefer players who are physically strong, have positional discipline, and work off the ball. Güler is technically brilliant, but he's not the type of natural defensive worker. So it seems that every coach has their own character, and some substitute players who I think are great are starting to not be used. And this is normal because players become victims of transition.

Endrick will go back to Madrid again in summer. His loan is only last for a half of season. yet, i don't think it's such a good move considering how comfort he was playing for his current club. If he's coming back, i believe Madrid will bench him again.

Considering how his time in Madrid was, I don't see how Enrick will go back and continue in Madrid after his loan move. He will definitely find a new club after his loan if he does not continue in Lyon. Worst cast scenario he will go on another loan to another club.
He was very depressed in Madrid and going back there will still be the same thing. He is not going to get that much minutes with Mbappe in such a form and the worst part is, Goncelo Garcia is ahead of him. Even thought I believe Goncelo Garcia will also leave at the end of the season, Endrick still wont get a chance in Madrid if he returns.
IN my opinion, Endrick's Real madrdi career is done for now. He would look for a team where he can play and be happy like he is in Lyone and build his confidence. In future, when he is matured and has gained experience, he may return, but for now, I just don't see him returning to Real Madrid.

I said that caused by how Arbeloa has never thought to change Mbappe who played as a striker for Madrid. I believe there will be also a conflict between Mbappe and Arbeloa when his position gets displaced to give minutes for Endrick.

Watching him play at Lyon and often scored is so sweet to me. On the other hand, I’m disappointed the way Madrid treated him before he got loaned out.

I believe it may be going well if they loan him much longer instead of recall him back. Let the boy to gain his comfy and being so explosive in farmer league.

I think playing more games is beginning to restore his confidence and ability to score goals, but truth be told, Endrick and Mbappe are not on the same level. Mbappe is far ahead of him. If he returns to Real Madrid in the summer, he will be sitting on the bench. If Lyon refuses to make the move permanent, I'm sure he will have other interested clubs, and it will be wise to move on. Mbappe will always be the favourite.

This Ademola Lookman move to Atletico Madrid for me is one of the best news in this just concluded January transfer window, at least this will be a different and a healthy atmosphere for him to start all over. Atalanta made a mess of this player and if it was some players it would have killed the energy they play with or the form would have dropped. Now he plays for Diego Simone, I hope ATM would play more attacking football than they have been doing at least something new not every time defending with a display that is so annoying and even make the squad challenge the likes of Madrid and Barcelona who are currently fighting for the title...good move and let's see how he'd elevate the club to a greater height.

The fact that lookman was struggling in the relationship aspect with his old club tells a big advantage for him because there is absolutely nothing that hurts more than playing at club where you give your 100% for the game and success of the team and yet they undermine your efforts and still even crucify you for reasons that best known to them. For me I just hope that his new journey being success and trophies to him because sometimes these transfer change to clubs is hard when it comes to adaptation.

Atalanta undermined and crucified Lookman? I don't know how much you followed but Lookman's behavior was everything but professional. He chose to get into an agreement with another club before Atalanta received a formal offer. Atalanta had a clear asking price for him but, because he already reached the agreement, the other team (Inter) was sure he could somehow force his way out and they could save a lot of money, and Lookman was fine with that because he would get more money too. So the only losers would be Atalanta. Maybe Lookman should look a little bit at his career because before Atalanta would believe in him he was absolutely nobody. He had zero respect for the team that made him grow at the current level.

Barcelona is like a broken club. They don't wanna let Rashford to leave, but they're not willing to trigger Rashford's 30m clause. So what they wanted? They want to extend Rashford's contract, meanwhile they also don't to pay his current salary. So i guess they wanted to extend, but they also want mu to subsidize his salary for the further loan.
They acted like an evil club right now. I know rashford is always keen to stay permanent, but it's impossible to let him stay without Barcelona trigger his release clause.

Their main target is wasting Rashford's contract, then they can sign him for cheap. No doubt they have always been using this trick. So i think the better MU to recall him back.

That exactly what Barcelona want to do, we have see clubs use that strategy in the football world. Well for a club in Barcelona situation currently it is the only option they have, they have seen the quality Marcus posses and to get a player like that now in the market will cost them even much more that what Manchester United are looking for. Well I think by the end of season Barcelona will be left with 2 choices;

1. They will have to let Rashford leave the club because Manchester United on the other hand will definitely want to cash out on him regarding how much they have spent since the beginning of season in the transfer market and

2. Barcelona will have to sell players so they can have cash to pay for what Manchester United is requesting. And for the personal terms I don’t think that will be much of a problem because Marcus himself is in love with Barcelona and would really want to stay.

Marcus Rashford doesn't have any plan of going back to Old Trafford since he's already comfortable in Camp Nou. He's making huge impact on the pitch and have become a very versatile and important player for the club. Hansi Flick is making good use of the player and have become a solid player that will do well for the club.

Manchester United will really make good use of the Englishman when he finally comes because it seems Barcelona are not ready to trigger the deal for Marcus Rashford. I don't think it'd fair to let Marcus Rashford slipped off their hands. This is not good because Marcus Rashford have improved massively and winning games with ease.

Barcelona is seeking a way to get Manchester United to lower Rashford's release clause due to Barcelona's ongoing financial problems. This situation presents a dilemma for Rashford. On the one hand, he wants to make the move permanent, while Manchester United appears unwilling to let him go for a very low price. Barcelona may be hoping Rashford will terminate his contract with Manchester United, allowing them to sign him on a free transfer. Furthermore, Rashford is also willing to reduce his salary. Given Barcelona's current financial situation, their transfer policy could be considered extremely unusual, and there is no other way than to resort to such not common.

It does seem to be true that the strategy implemented by Arne Slot is not suitable and has even tended to make Alexander Isak struggle to adapt at Liverpool. Injury problems have also been a major setback, preventing him from performing according to expectations since his move from Newcastle. At a glance, many people would clearly label the transfer as a failed investment.

Overall, it is actually not only Alexander Isak who appears to have fallen short of expectations, in my view, almost all of the players recruited last summer have faced similar issues. Arne Slot is certainly aware of this situation and is trying to push all of those high profile signings to rediscover their best form going forward.

Isak wasn't just bad at Liverpool, he also played like crap in Sweden. Ironically, Sweden still has a chance to qualify for the 2026 World Cup, which I don't think is fair given their last place in the group. The problem with Isak is that 70-80% of his success is Newcastle. He certainly improved there, but now, after missing preseason training, his injury, and the ongoing recovery process, I'm not at all sure he'll return to the top level. Plus, given his mentality, a repeat of Rashford's story is possible.

The club is going through serious financial issues that it is doing it's best to overcome. They target players who are free agents or have problems with their clubs. They are making all these moved ro avoid many financial obligations so that they can balance their accounts. But in the case of Rashford, they should be committed to spending money. The English player has been performing well in Barcelona. Barcelona would be ready to lose him to another club that is interested in Rashford. Manchester United is also in a very tight corner. Since Marcus has no intention to return to United, they would have to continue with the Barca loan deal or seek another club that will buy the player.

Seriously Kante transfer has been a success? it's good that Fenerbahce got another player who can be relied on in their midfield, even though Kante is 34 years old his quality has not decreased at all, what is in my mind at this time what is the main reason he gave up a high salary in the Arab league to join Fenerbahce? because I'm sure he will get a smaller salary at Fenerbahce, could it be because he still has the ambition to play in European competition?

Kante is a very good signing for fernabache and I am really expecting him to improve the team. He has done very well in his career and moving to fernabache now will really help him in his career. I am really happy for him the the transfer worked for him in the last minute and I believe that he will definitely help the team. This transfer is very good for the both party, because Kante will be getting a good move for himself and fernabache will be getting a good player that will help improve the team.

Mbappé's position at Real Madrid is irreplaceable, regardless of who the manager is. Endrick is still young and has a long career ahead of him, and he's a talented player.

This is just the best thing that can happen to his career because relegating to the bench at real madrid is inevitable if he ever returns there now. Mbappe and the rest of other attacking players are ahead of him in the pecking order, so changing of club or staying put at Olympic Lyon now is the best thing for him now, since he is being played week in week out at Lyon, and it's what would aid his development faster, than seating on the bench at real madrid that minutes will hardly comes by.

There's no need for Endrick to return back to Real Madrid, except the new coach will start giving him some playing time since Xabi Alonso couldn't give him much time which were some of the reasons why he embarked on a loan deal. I also share same sentiment as you that Endrick should be sent to another loan deal to help him develop more and upgrade his skills and since the World Cup is fast approaching, he needs to be steady on the pitch so that he can be useful to Brazil at the World Cup. Endrick is still young and has a long future ahead of him so his talents shouldn't be silenced by keeping him in the bench anymore, it's time for the lad to get busy and become a better striker.

There are many people think Endrick should not come back to Real Madrid because he is not going to be a starter in the team, from my understanding those people are Barcelona fans because only Barcelona fans will not want Real Madrid to have a good player, Endrick is the future of Real Madrid and Real Madrid never considered to sell him, Real Madrid know the kind of player he is,  a Brazilian kid with a good shooting ability that is why they want him to go on a loan.

For now I think Real Madrid need all the player's that they can get to increase their squad capabilities to confront opponent in this season, but Eric won't bet the answer to that, since he has been on loan and yet Real Madrid is able to put their head out in the level their doing right now in various leagues although there are some left behind for them, but Eric is not in the category of player's that can fixed that for them this period of time, getting a loan extension is most likely since his current club won't want to let him go just like that now that he is assisting the club.

He wants to play for the French national team in the World Cup. The financial conditions in Turkiye aren't as good as in Saudi Arabia, but they're not bad either. Additionally, he has played in the Arab league for a long time, so he may have felt it was time for a change and accepted Fenerbahçe's offer for that reason. Saudi Arabia is making serious investments in football, but since many things are still at a beginner level, Kante may not have found what he was looking for there. Also, Fenerbahçe is a well-established club with a large fan base. Thousands of people waited for Kante at the airport. People have been posting about this transfer on Twitter for days. This interest alone may have played an important role in influencing his decision...

[Renampun]

For now it's not possible to keep Mbappe on thr bench because of Endrick. The Brazilian striker is a fantastic player but Mbappe is on another class. The French striker is strong, fast , clinical and experienced. Bring Endrick and keeping him on the bench is not cool. Maybe he would be a backup and play in less important games. The Brazilian young star is having a good time in Lyon scoring five goals with one assist.  If I were Endrick, Real Madrid should give me assurance that I would be given some playing time before coming back.

I don't think that Endrick can be a replacement for Mbappe, he is still not worthy of that, so it is very likely that he will remain a reserve player even if he returns to the main squad regardless of whether he has made such a good start with Lyon, but it is still not enough to place him in the main squad. but at this moment he can use it to continue to develop and mature his game without needing to be so pressured by the huge expectations if he joins Real Madrid at this time. he already has a good foundation to build his career on now and I think that if he can continue like this until the end of the season, he will already have better experience and maybe Real Madrid will consider him to come back and take on a more significant role or maybe his contract with Lyon can be extended until next season.
