⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[TastyChillySauce00]

Garnacho has never been a player who is able to meet the expectations... I think it is the best for not only him but also the team to leave as soon as possible.

I don't think Xabi Alonso would make him shine and I even doubt he would like to work for that.

Garnacho is good, but he has big ego. It's the main problem he must overcome. Unless, he can't reduce his ego, i don't think he will able to shine again. So give him more time. He's just one season in chelsea, which is nothing compared to the how he was a homegrown at MU.
So you can't expect him to deliver the same like he did in the old days club.

However if Chelsea can't find a team for a permanent move then they are in trouble... Why would even they sign a contract until 2032 with him? The owners must be out of their mind!

Anything needs process. As per skynews report, several clubs are interesting to sign Garnacho, and it's still long way to go. So i expect Garnacho leaves from there during the summer window.

As for his long term contract, it's to ensure club can do fee amortization. He's also still a young player. So he needs to be protected to ensure other club can't get him for cheap or free due to the short term contract duration. The club management knows what they're doing.

Barcelona seems not wanna give up in chasing Alvarez. After they took €210 million to fund their squad operation. They're preparing to launch €130 Million bid for Alvarez, which is laughable. Madrid sent €150 million, then got rejected. How can they still being so narcisstic to offer less than what Madrid did, and think Atletico will accept their offer?

I'm not sure how reliable Diario SPORT is, but the €130M may be part of a structured deal that covers the initial upfront fee, with the remaining fees paid in installments ^{[together with performance-based add-ons (if it's something that Julián can easily achieve, it might do the trick)]}.

If they really want Alvarez. They have to spend all of loans securied to buy him out. I think Atletico will sell Alvarez to them if they send €210 million offer instead send less than what Madrid can afford. This club is just acting like a clown. What's wrong with them?  

Even as Atletico Madrid rejected the €150 million bid Real Madrid sent for Julian Alvarez, I don't see Barcelona's €130 million bid as something that's laughable because there has been cases where a club couldn't sign a player even after meeting the player release clause just because the player doesn't want to play for that club but the player ended up signing for the club he has in heart to play for, for a lower transfer fee, and since Alvarez wants to play for Barcelona, Atletico Madrid could accept the €130 million Barcelona are preparing if they want to sell him. But the problem is Atletico Madrid isn't ready to let Alvarez go, so even though Barcelona are preparing to send €160 million bid, Atletico Madrid will still reject it.

Talking about the goalkeepers and their age, Vozinha is a breakout star from the World Cup at his age (40), even older than Martinez. He is attracting interest from Inter Miami, and I think Lionel Messi has an influence in it because Vozinha was exceptional against Lionel Messi, denying him multiple chances in that game.

I think Inter Miami is going to be his next destination. Do you think so too?

Given his age, he should be thinking about retirement. If he does move to Inter Miami, he could play for a maximum of two seasons. In the third season, he wouldn't be able to play well. As the years go by, muscles become weaker, players get slower and more prone to injuries, and in the case of goalkeepers, reflexes become slower. So he'll know he'll only be there for one or two seasons. I don't know if it's worth it, maybe for the amount of money it could be.

Vozinha is not much different from the phenomenon of young talented players who shine in a season, where joining a big club does not guarantee the same impact. Age remains an important factor, and I agree he might only last two or three seasons.

His name became a trend because he captivated the world of football, but popularity alone was not enough for a long-term career. I think Vozinha was lucky enough, despite his age is no longer young but managed to show an outstanding performance at the World Cup.

His age is just the problem, if he was much younger, his agent would've been very busy dealing with different clubs, he didn't shine in any competition but the World Cup but the age is just the problem. He can only be signed in a more recognized club if any is willing to have him for a season or a second choice.

 Imagine he gets an opportunity to be Manchester City’s or United's keeper for a season, I'll grab that opportunity but I doubt they'll come for him, he should be expecting clubs from the Saudi Arabia league or MLS cause those are the leagues that signs players of his age and caliber.

So you can't expect him to deliver the same like he did in the old days club.

This lad made one of the biggest mistakes in his life and that’s leaving Manchester United, he was definitely going to be a poster boy but later ended up fighting with Amorim and thought he would be begged because he was called the next Ronaldo. I agree with you on the ego thing because let’s be sincere he wasn’t even treated unfairly like Kobbie Mainoo by Amorim and Kobbie Mainoo held up his anger and stayed but Gernacho threatened to leave and even made Chelsea is preferred destination.

His biggest mistake then came making the London side his destination not because anyone thought Chelsea was going to have a bad season, Chelsea then just won the club World Cup and were on top of the world then and with them in the champions league and Manchester United not there he might have thought it’s was best choice, but the likes of Napoli too came and they were in the champions league too. For me he should have prioritize more game time which was definitely going to be a problem due to the number of wingers Chelsea had on their disposals and were also buying then.

For me he shouldn’t waste his time looking for a year at Chelsea because it will be another wasted year, you can actually wait only if the manager wants you but the manager doesn’t want him because he isn’t part of his plans and as such would find it very hard breaking into the managers team. A move away is the best deal for him in my opinion

You shouldn't be pissed about Rashford situation, it should be Barcelona who doesn't want to do the needful and now that they have Adeyemi and Gordon it will be difficult to say they would consider Rashford instead they'd work with what they have (without the English player). Barcelona don't really need much wingers, a complete striker and a strong defensive midfielder should be their target but getting more attackers is not really going to help the team that much except their style of play will always prevent oppositions to spend less time with the ball.

Why should I be pissed over a lazy player? He has all that resources in front of him and this is how he behaves?! If Rashford was that quality enough, Barcelona would see him retained but they didn't. They literally signed two different players with a much higher price than him and most Manchester United fans intends to see him returning?! You don't know what plans they have so you can not say they shouldn't sign the players they signed. Wait and see.

Barcelona has given Rashford the opportunity to prove himself but he failed, it must be admitted so it is natural that currently Barcelona management is not so interested in bringing in Rashford because in terms of quality he is not that good and cannot contribute much to the team so there is no need for excessive consideration for Barcelona management in fact I am sure that if you look at the performance that Rashford is currently showing, he is no longer worthy of being in a top European team.

[LUCKMCFLY]

I think Lewandowski replacement isn't Adeyemi, at least they haven't officially said so but he is signed as a new player. He naturally play left wing and already Yamal and Raphina both naturally play right wing but Raphina naturally can act as a striker. Instead of this back and forth with Alvarez that Atletico Madrid doesn't want to give them, they should strategies and use this three attack this way, it might turn out better than they do even expected.

If they sign Adeyemi, they'd be getting a dream player. He'd be a great replacement, because Lewandowski is very good, but Adeyemi is also very good. So that gap that's always there would be gradually filled with that player. Besides, I'd say Barcelona would have a great attacker; he's very good and would be an imminent threat to anyone at this time.

[wakier]

Barcelona as a club is actually improving the team ahead of next season. They've seen how active Real Madrid has been since the start of the summer transfer window, they also want to match that energy. They've already signed Anthony Gordon and now, Karim Adeyemi. I think Hansi Flick is up to something. He's won the Spanish La Liga in the last two seasons at the club, he probably wants to go for European glory next season.

Real Madrid are working tirelessly in this transfer window just to destabilize Barcelona and dominate La Liga next season, so it will be insane if Barcelona watch Real Madrid achieve their ambition next season without doing anything. Barcelona knows what Real Madrid are up to and they are matching up their energy, more players will join Barcelona after the World Cup.

Hopefully this season Real Madrid can go well because they have made a lot of efforts to get quality players to strengthen their performance next season, Barcelona certainly will not stay silent seeing their arch rivals recruit good players and I am sure Barcelona is not calm because Barcelona cannot be like Real Madrid who is able to recruit many Barcelona players only relying on the abilities of its players, but I think next season will be more difficult for Barcelona because their mainstay striker Lewandowski left he was a goal scoring machine for Barca, we will see how Barca handles that deficiency for next season.

So that gap that's always there would be gradually filled with that player. Besides, I'd say Barcelona would have a great attacker; he's very good and would be an imminent threat to anyone at this time.

If we look at the stats of Adeyemi at Borussia Dortmund, he won't make a good replacement for Robert Lewandowski. Adeyemi doesn't convert many chances as Lewandowski did at Barcelona. Adeyemi cannot rescue the team in critical moments when his impact is needed the most unlike Lewandowski that even when he is being brought in as a substitute, he tries as much as possible to help his team win a match. Maybe he might be useful as a winger and not in attacking position. Barcelona will likely sign him since an agreement has been reached already but i don't think he will make a perfect replacement for Robert Lewandowski.

Even as Atletico Madrid rejected the €150 million bid Real Madrid sent for Julian Alvarez, I don't see Barcelona's €130 million bid as something that's laughable because there has been cases where a club couldn't sign a player even after meeting the player release clause just because the player doesn't want to play for that club but the player ended up signing for the club he has in heart to play for, for a lower transfer fee, and since Alvarez wants to play for Barcelona, Atletico Madrid could accept the €130 million Barcelona are preparing if they want to sell him. But the problem is Atletico Madrid isn't ready to let Alvarez go, so even though Barcelona are preparing to send €160 million bid, Atletico Madrid will still reject it.

Personally I think Real Madrid made a bid of 150 million for Alvarez just to increase Alvarez's price. Because I have not heard anywhere that Madrid or Enrique are interested in Alvarez. Alvarez's style of play also does not match Madrid's overall gameplay. On the other hand you are right that Alvarez has some interest in going to Barcelona. So it would not be surprising if Atletico Madrid were interested in selling Alvarez for 130 million. But I think Barcelona will have to increase the amount a bit more. Probably 140/150 million will be the amount Barcelona will have to spend if they want to add Alvarez to the squad.

You don't know what plans they have so you can not say they shouldn't sign the players they signed. Wait and see.

I'm surprised by how Barcelona left him after giving him the hope of getting him in their squad, they saw all he did for the club and how much hunger he have to keep playing for the club and you can't say he's lazy, Rashford is not just that sometimes things doesn't work for him the way he positioned himself. For me last season was the best I have seen from him even better than he played for Aston Villa. My problem is why is Manchester United not letting him know if he has a place in the squad or not, or better still sell him off and save the young man the trouble. For Barcelona with all the players they have now I don't think it will be easy for the other club, it will be them and Madrid to fight for the title next season.

The only logical explanation behind this offer is that, maybe, Barcelona think that Atletico would prefer to sell Alvarez to them for less money instead of let him go to Real Madrid, their number one enemy, for more money. And maybe there also is a second one: Alvarez prefers Barcelona over Real Madrid.

I don't think this plan is going to work because Atletico are equally pissed with both Real Madrid and Barcelona, so I don't think their are going to do them any favor.

This was a strategy entirely by Real Madrid, Real Madrid's attack line is already strong and organized, I don't see any place for Alvarez in this attack line. However, Alvarez's style of play suits Barcelona, ​​if Barcelona is able to take Alvarez into the team, Barcelona will become even stronger, which is harmful to Real Madrid. That is why Real Madrid is trying to financially harm Barcelona. However, this deal depends on the decision of Atletico Madrid, whether they will agree to sell Alvarez or not is the biggest question mark. Due to Alvarez's interest, there is still a small chance that this deal will succeed.

[Supreme Donvic]

In order for Barcelona to survive next season they need to sign a very good striker because right now they don't have a good and capable striker that will help them to gift the champions League title, they have actually been doing very well but they don't have a very good striker who can always score goal for them they have good wingers all what they need right now is a striker and they have not gotten it and very soon next season will start, Real Madrid have been busy signing players in order to strengthen their team, Barcelona needs to do same.

Barcelona will likely sign him since an agreement has been reached already but i don't think he will make a perfect replacement for Robert Lewandowski.

Adeyemi is a convertible player, either as a winger or a center forward, although I consider him more brilliant as a winger than a striker. If Barcelona are going for him, he shouldn't be a replacement for Lewandowski, just another addition as a winger to the club for more squad depth. Barcelona should go for a natural striker, a complete number 9 is best to fill in that position.

I think, Real Madrid intentionally went for Alvarez just to panic Barcelona and make them pay more money to sign him because there's no information about Real Madrid going extra miles to sign him. Barcelona needs Alvarez to replace Lewandoski but Atletico don't want to sell him. Barcelona should look for a different striker to replace Lewa.

[Abbatty]

In order for Barcelona to survive next season they need to sign a very good striker because right now they don't have a good and capable striker that will help them to gift the champions League title, they have actually been doing very well but they don't have a very good striker who can always score goal for them they have good wingers all what they need right now is a striker and they have not gotten it and very soon next season will start, Real Madrid have been busy signing players in order to strengthen their team, Barcelona needs to do same.

Well to get a top striker now Barcelona will be spending close to 100 million euros, well I don’t think they can afford that right now. After signing Gordon they have been managing not to spend much because they can afford that. So from what I’m thinking, Raphina or Gordon will be playing as a center forward next season. For me I still think they need to improve the team if they want to win the champions league, and it not just the attack.

It been a very busy transfer window for them, they just signed Adeyemi from Dortmond, they are improving the team. Well as for next season they will have to challenge for more than the champions league, but also the laliga too, Real Madrid are building a strong team right now.

Alvarez situation either get Worst or better depending on the kind of performance he is able to put out, speculation around his clubs transfers hav been on for a while now, but the reality is that aside the €130m-€150m Claus on the player, we may have other condition around his transfers that remain in the speculation zone.


But wat we should be consign about right now is his personal composure and dressing room relationship with other players considering how he'd it was in the dressing room while Alvarez was at Manchester United.

[Webutxo]

Barcelona needs Alvarez to replace Lewandoski but Atletico don't want to sell him. Barcelona should look for a different striker to replace Lewa.

I don't think Real Madrid even wanted Alvarez in the first place, it's going to be foolish of the club to want another striker when in fact they have Mbape, he is doing the job for the team already but the team lack defenders. Make it make sense to me the meaning of the team looking for another striker worth thousands of dollars but they don't have single defender that will die for them when things are getting heated during games, they lack one back line that will do the job for them.

They should let Atletico Madrid be because I don't think they have plan to sell Alvarez, he has became center of attention that the club didn't want and I'm sure the interesting clubs have mutual respect for both. Even Barcelona that many people think will buy him in replacement for Lewandowski has went for Adeyemi and there are reports that Barcelona will make Raphina as their striker next season to make it work and spend less for the club.

Garnacho has never been a player who is able to meet the expectations... I think it is the best for not only him but also the team to leave as soon as possible.

I don't think Xabi Alonso would make him shine and I even doubt he would like to work for that.

However if Chelsea can't find a team for a permanent move then they are in trouble... Why would even they sign a contract until 2032 with him? The owners must be out of their mind!

Italian club are suited for Garnacho and Roma Is the Perfect for him and has future. I boy when he was a young talent kid in Manchester united that's day really miss Garnacho but they didn't show him very much and now club after club no one can give them a long term contract the main Reason a hate between messi and Ronaldo Fan. Once you are from Argentina you didn't need to became Ronaldo idol and same as if you are a Ronaldo Fan you didn't make messi as a idol so that's hate make them has future out of greatness. Hope roma give so time to show has talent.
