⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[Asiska02]

Bruno has a year left on his contract although with an option to extend is added but should he insist in requesting for higher wage then I am very certain that Manchester United will begin to listen to offers for their captain because this new salary structure looks to have come and stay for now. Moving to Al Nassr at the age of 31 isn’t a failure but this man still has a lot to offer in my opinion than to go there

Manchester United will not even bore down and make such mistake. If they make that mistake, the team that Micheal Carrick is trying to revive back will crumble again. Bruno Fernandes is just seen as an ordinary player but Manchester United has already built their team on this player, so letting him go will affect the entire team. They should have learnt how to play without him but they modelled the team into his own ways and now leaving is no more an option for him now. The big advantage for him is that he can ask for salary increase and be granted without much hassle. Going to Al Nassr will be a later move if he’ll be interested again later but for now, I see no reason why Manchester United or himself will agree to that deal. It is looking very impossible to happen now.

But come to think of it, 100 million is a pretty high price for a player who’s only 19 years old. But that’s okay, who knows, maybe Diomande’s performance at Real Madrid will live up to expectations.

I was very surprised when I read the news about the signing of Yan Diomande which reached €120, even though the player is still 19 years old, I had never heard of his name before, maybe because he is not very famous and does not play for Bayern Munich or Leverkusen. I'm still wondering if his value reflects his performance, perhaps because he managed to score 16 goals and 10 assists last season, but those stats are still lower than Anthony Gordon 20 goals and 9 assists.

Real Madrid spent €120 million on Diomande, while Barcelona spent €111 million to bring in Gordon and Adeyemi, this time I see Barcelona transfer policy as smarter than Real Madrid. Additionally, Diomande wages are expected to be around €14 million (gross), while Gordon and Adeyemi combined wages would only cost around €12 million. Hopefully Real Madrid won't make the same blunder as when they signed Hazard from Chelsea.

It is now clear that Real Madrid are not focused on building their team, they just focused on signing trending players just because they have the money. Gordon had more G/A than Diomande, but was sold cheaper. Diomande is a young player who still needs to improve himself, I expected him to move to PSG or Liverpool were there is less pressure. Real Madrid is a team coming with extreme potentials this season, and I don't think Diomande is qualified enough to handle such pressure. I am not saying he is not good, but I don't think he can stand the pressure, he is still very young.

I just pray Diomande will be able to prove himself in Real Madrid and earn a place in the starting line up, or he might end up like other youngsters on the bench. Let's see whether Madrid will change their ways and give the youngsters a chance just like their rivals Barcelona. Good luck to Diomande.

In Diomande's case Real Madrid are taking a huge bet that the player is going to be a future star. It's the same strategy they've been using for Vinicius, Rodrygo, Mastantuono... They are not paying for the current market value, but for the future one. I can understand risking 30-40 millions for a young player but 120... Maybe he'll be the next Cristiano Ronaldo, who knows, but this guy barely played a couple of professional seasons...

In my opinion, Real Madrid are exaggerating their valuation of this player. Maybe he'll be worth that amount in the future, but why risk so much? It is very likely that they will never get that amount back if the player does not live up to expectations, and they risk finding themselves with an incredible capital loss in their balance sheets.

Diomande played without pressure at his previous club, if he made one or two mistakes it was understandable, he still had the trust of the coach, there also the target was only to qualify for the Champions League, the media spotlight was also small, if he made a passing mistake it would not immediately become a headline after the match. Meanwhile, at Real Madrid, he will face demands because the club's goals are at a different level. Of course, at Real Madrid, he plays not to develop, but to help the club win every match.

I'm still not sure if he can maintain his performance consistently, especially since he will be competing with other quality players there. Real Madrid has placed high hopes on him, I hope he doesn't become like Endrick who lost the trust of the coach due to his inconsistent performance, and was eventually loaned to another club. If a scenario like this happens again, Real Madri investment in Diomande will suffer losses.

The pressure is going to be huge for him. Let's not forget that Real Madrid fans are extremely spoiled and they don't care whether you're 18 or 35, they expect good performances all the time. We have seen plenty of youngsters failing at Real Madrid. It's not exactly the best club to grow, they are the opposite of Barcelona just to make an example.

Bruno to Al-Nassr will be another loss for Manchester United that's if it happens, how can the Red Devils play without the midfielder should he leave and join his  country side teammate CR7? Can this even happenin no time?

Bruno's hope of winning as many honors as a player with Manchester United is limited due to his age. Manchester United is still rebuilding with no hope of the team winning a domestic title anytime soon. Bruni should go to Al-Nassr for the money. Premier League has not yielded anything good for him. It will be a regret if he remains in the club.

Don’t you think he might just be playing for the passion he has for the game, players have different interests entirely, not every player that would like to play in the Saudi Pro League, probably because of the culture there, I don’t think it might be a sporting decision, most likely his family doesn’t want to move to Saudi Arabia.

Not every player is interested in the Saudi Money, this players we are seeing are rich and wealthy, they have everything they want in life, so moving to Saudi Pro League might not just be what he wants for himself, I expected him to have moved last season to Al-Nassr, but he refused and decided to stay at Manchester United.

This man have done so much at the Etihad and for the 3 Lions, this upcoming season we'd be seeing him at Inter Milan, good move for John Stones. At some point I thought the Blues would get him but it seems his attention is some where else, how do we rate Stones at Inter Milan next season?

Wow, it's good that Inter have purchased John Stones. His experience will help the team a lot this coming season and with the likes of Calhanoglu, Mhikitaryan and the rest. I feel that he would have been more appreciated at Chelsea because they don't really have that player with as much experience as he has but anyways, good signing for Inter.

[shinratensei_]

A transfer pivot showed by Chelsea realy surprised me. They being known always signed young lads, then changed their plan to sign two aged players (Wellbeck and Hendo). If their reason to sign new leaders in the squad, it's all make sense. However, how fast they change their paradigm from putting young player as their priority to the veterans.
This means they're getting serious in chasing points in EPL next season. This also reminds me when they signed so many veteran during Abramovich era.

Are they really changing the way they build club now? It's interesting to see what's gonna be the result from bringing some veterans to their club.

He also considered Milan, but he didn't suit Amorin, which by the way, I think is very strange. A player like that could have strengthened Milan very well. But in any case, I think Inter made a very smart move, and getting such a player as a free agent is, in my opinion a real gift. Besides, the contract terms if I'm not mistaken, are €4 million per year. That's a very reasonable salary for such a player. Initially he wanted a salary of €7 million per year, but during negotiations they agreed with Inter management on a lower salary.

Exactly, growing as a footballer at Real Madrid is a bit complicated, the pressure from the media, the fans and the management is enormous. Will the player be able to handle this enormous pressure? If he can manage these emotions then he could become one of the best players in the world

For Arsenal, finding a reliable striker is much more necessary than looking for players in other positions because of their current shortcomings in the attacking line that Arteta needs to address.

Arsenal already has a reliable striker in Gyokeres. That’s why Arsenal isn’t so eager to pursue another striker. Last season, his first with the club, Gyokeres performed well for Arsenal. Arteta sees Gyokeres as the right solution for Arsenal’s front line. Moreover, Gyokeres is starting to gel with Arteta’s tactical system, which will make it easier for him to perform even more impressively next season. Therefore, Arsenal’s current squad is already quite complete. It’s now up to Arteta to bring out the best in his players so that Arsenal can perform consistently well.

Yeah Gyokeres is a very good striker and I think Arsenal should not bother themselves looking for another striker, his first season in Arsenal he did very well and his going to actually do more better next season.
What Arsenal should be looking for right now is a winger and if they can succeed to sign vini jr it will be better for them because his the kind of player Arsenal is actually looking for.
Anyone who watch Arsenal play last season will know that the problem Arsenal has right now or what they are lacking is a proper winger.

Arsenal fans are already hoping that Vini jnr will be the next big signing for their club but from all indication, there is no way that he will leave Real Madrid just to settle down at Arsenal. Arteta is very good at managing whatever player he has and making the best use of them and with  Gyokeres and the likes of saka that has even scored an hattrick in the last game in participated in the world cup, their is a lot of positives in arsenals front line in the coming season.

I can see that Bruno still has big ambitions and he’s not yet satisfied with what he’s achieved with Man United , so for that reason he’ll most likely stay with Man United, at least for the upcoming season. A huge paycheck for a player who is no longer young is clearly a very tempting proposition , but for the time being that does not seem to have any attraction for Bruno Fernandes because, aside from his ambition , his family is also still happy living in Manchester. Perhaps one day he’ll go there, but not anytime soon.

Initially he wanted a salary of €7 million per year, but during negotiations they agreed with Inter management on a lower salary.

For me it would have been better to add Stones into the mix of defenders they have and also look out for a way to add like 1 or 2 strikers in the attacking side for Ac Milan because they don't have that force up front, Amorim should have considered Stones to add more experience to that back line. Inter are indeed smart for getting him and from how they are in the starting 11 it only reminds me of how Juventus were as of then, old players with experience and they got the job done without much stress, few young players but check properly they have more of old players in their first 11, that is how I see Inter Milan in the coming season and they will do very well to defend their title.
You know how football has turn out to be, where players above 29 don't have much value and they pay them less because the management feels they don't have anything big to offer but they forget that the older they are the better they become (for some) and the experience I talked about too, let's watch and see how productive he'd be at his new club.

Arsenal will try to take advantage of the ongoing tension between Vinicius and Real Madrid to strengthen their forward line. If the two sides fail to reach an agreement, Real Madrid will have no choice but to sell him. Furthermore, many Real Madrid legends have had to leave the Santiago Bernabeu due to persistent delays in extending their contracts.

Arsenal seems to be rumored in connection with several strikers at the moment, because their focus in this transfer window is indeed to get a striker. A few names were already being rumored before Vinicius. But anyway, this is also competition. Other clubs are also building their teams, and Arsenal could take advantage of the situation with Vinicius and Madrid. But of course, Arsenal knows the price they have to be ready for if Madrid ultimately decides to sell him.

Vinicius Junior will be a good buy for any top team in the EPL and quite a scary one for Gunners, although I wonder how they are going to balance things between the pursuit of Julian Alvarez and Vinicius Junior,  will they have to let one go or go for both?

I will throw the deal for Alvarez out the window for Vini Jr.

Vini Jr. in Arsenal will cook; if we are able to complete the signing and bring him in, I believe we would have solved our attacking problems significantly.

I know we just completed the signing of Tzolis for the wing Vini plays too, but it will be good to have three very good options for that position, that is if Martnelli does not leave.

Before we speculate on whether Arsenal will be able to sign Vinicius or not, how confident are we that Vinicius will leave Real Madrid this season? I’m not very convinced that Vinicius will leave Real Madrid, and Real Madrid doesn’t seem to have any intention of letting him go, at least not this season. Vinicius is a key player for Real Madrid, and his performance there has been outstanding. So there’s no reason for Real Madrid to sell him. In fact, losing Vinicius would be a significant loss for the club.

There were tensions between Vinicius and Xabi Alonso in the previous season, but Real Madrid has signed Jose Mourinho. I'm not sure how Vinicius would get along with Mourinho, since Mourinho is a manager, who wants to dominate the dressing room and to not let the "superstars" in the team to influence the rest of the squad. Arsenal has a pretty different style and I'm not sure that Vinicius would be a good fit for a team, that plays more pragmatic football with an emphasis on defensive play. By the way, the news that Chelsea is about to sign Henderson and Wellbeck seem like a complete joke to me. Is this fake news? Chelsea is once again choosing a totally chaotic and unreasonable "strategy" on the transfer market.

[LUCKMCFLY]

]All that preparation only to lose every single el clásico match, and record an overall 13 losses and more in a season. You can argue that this season will have a different turnout and that's understandable, but they had the likes of Mbappe and the rest and nothing changed. They better be prepared for their greatest nemesis, Barcelona because they too have sharpened up and repositioned their squad and with the majority, brought the world cup back to Spain.

Many have said the same thing you're saying, that Barcelona gave Spain the World Cup, but let's wait and see. I think this time the Clásico will be much more interesting, because if Madrid has already reinforced its midfield, it will be a real pain not only for Barcelona but for all the teams they have to face. That's a unique advantage. We have to wait to see those matches. What I can assure you is that Madrid won't lose as badly as they have been due to a lack of good players.

[Abbatty]

For free, it really a good signing for inter Milan. We saw them trying to sign Chalobah couple of weeks ago, and now they get John stones for free. Well he has been an injury prone player in recent years, let just hope at Inter it will be different. Still I think inter Milan should try and add another defender, with Dumfries leaving and Also Bastoni bring rumored to leave, they need to add another defender.

For I think it a 8/10 signing for inter considering his experience and also his injury history. He will bring in enough experience to the squad and also his winning mentality from Manchester city. Let hope injury doesn’t stop him from having a good spell at inter Milan.
