⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions

[xzone]

Carrick's blunder for a potentially great future player is about to be visible. It's JJ Gabriel, and he's really angry because his academy mate debuted in Europe before him. The reason is clear: he has better abilities. This situation triggered Gabriel to leave the club. Apparently, he has arrived in Spain and is preparing to negotiate with Barcelona. There are even reports that Real Madrid, PSG, and Munich are also interested in him. JJ Gabriel is a young player from the Man United academy who has successfully caught a lot of attention. The clear sign that he's leaving is that he has deleted all his photos on Instagram. Gabriel's representative has also requested to be removed from the playing roster. He is only 15 years old and he's really good.

I'd never heard of this footballer before, but after reading your message, I did some research and he clearly has a bright future. A product of Manchester United's youth academy, at just 15 years old, is trying to transfer to another team because he's upset with the club, it's an interesting situation, something we don't often see. Real Madrid and Barcelona are reportedly interested in him, and it looks like he'll sign with one of them and become a star who will be talked about a lot in the coming years. He'll have a better chance of rising to prominence in Spain

Bastoni was linked with a move to Barcelona but nothing happened. I don't know if the management of Inter Milan must have blocked the move one way or another.
This news will forever remain a speculations for me, until I see a verified football journalist makes a tweet about it.

There could be a deal strucked because, Inter Milan signed John Stones on a free transfer after leaving Manchester City finally. I don't know who drops but up in my head, it seems like Fofana.

In addition to the management who perhaps blocked Bastoni's possible move to Barcelona, the player's will is certainly something that makes the difference. And for the player, currently playing for his favorite team is already more than enough of a difference to stay.

There's a say down here in my country "you don't value what you have until, you lose it" it's clear that Manchester United have lost him because bigger clubs are much more interested in him and that gives him a big advantage to dump United for any one of his choice.

Carrick should learn how to manage the players that he has in order to bring out the best performance of the team. Players rotation is very important, it doesn't make any of the players to feel that they're not being carried along. These young players are eager to show the world what they gat and if you don't give them enough playing time, how would we see what they gat.

Manchester United is not even using a player like JJ Gabriel and I asked why? In a world where young lads are making and developing their performance, the Red Devils just dropped Gabriel on the bench simply because he's young. This is a player that need more time to enchance his performance. Players like Lewis Skelly in Arsenal is already integrated into the first team but Gabriel is still on the bench with absolutely no minutes play in professional EPL games. It's very frustrating and if I happen to be Gabriel, I will also push for the exits from Old Trafford.

How are you blaming the first team manager for the decision of an academy player? So the manager called a player he is better than, so what? In my opinion, the kid has seen the direction of the club and is convinced that nothing good would come out of Manchester United, so he wants to leave for a club where he would have a better chance. Look at the state of Manchester United, does it look like a team where an academy product will shine?

I don't even think the kid is that good. I haven't watched him before, but after all the drama, I tried to look up some of his videos, and I don't think he is a generational talent. Maybe I'm wrong, and he would grow up to be a beast, but from what I saw, I'm not seeing much. He is good, though, just not at the level that Manchester United fans talked of on X.

JJ Gabriel is too small to be dictating what would happen at a club like Manchester United, he's just 15 and should've waited till he's matured enough before taking such action, although i heard his dad is the brains behind his decision and pushing him to leave to clubs that are currently doing better than Manchester United.

 He should know that those clubs might not immediately give him a debut in snr team too, she shouldn't expect Real Madrid, Barcelona or PSG to rest experience senior team players and give a 15 years old a debut if he's not fit and ready, he might be talented but how about his physicality, it's risky for a 15 years.

Bastoni was linked with a move to Barcelona but nothing happened. I don't know if the management of Inter Milan must have blocked the move one way or another.

Yes, also in Italy the talked about Bastoni moving to Barcelona for months but it looks like Barcelona offered very little money to Inter, some sources reported a 40-milllion euro offer, which ridiculously low for a player like Bastoni. Before I said that Barcelona are missing a great central defender, well, Bastoni would have been perfect for them.

If Barcelona’s management is offering a low transfer fee for a player who fits a position they need, it means they don’t really need that player that much. Inter is asking for a high transfer fee for Bastoni, and this situation will push Barcelona toward cheaper defensive alternatives. Meanwhile, Chelsea is also in the running for Bastoni. Chelsea appears to be willing to spend 80 million euros for Bastoni during the winter transfer window. This move by Chelsea would dash Barcelona’s transfer hopes.

Barcelona is having some financial difficulties, what they tabled was what they could afford at the moment, they need defenders and for Barcelona to bid that high for him shows they needed him but couldn't match the fee Inter Milan wanted. Barcelona on the other hand are starting to balance their books, it's better for them now than it was two to three years ago, they are able to pay most of their outstanding debts, sooner or later they will bounce back to the Barcelona who could sign players once again. This season they signed Gordon for €80 million, this wasn't achievable two or three years. Even if they miss out on Bastoni in the next transfer, they will get another player that will suit the team. With Chelsea buoyancy, they will get him next window if they still want him by that time.

It's very possible that the move was blocked by Inter Milan,  because Bastoni is a very important player for them. Barcelona were really interested in the player, but the deal did not materialize and I will not be surprised to find out that the deal was blocked by Inter Milan. Bastoni is a very important player for the team and definitely their best defender , so I don't think they will want to lose such important player.

We can't for a fact say the management block this because I myself cannot vividly recall Barcelona making an official offer for him, everything we saw were speculation before the transfer window and after it nothing was actually made.

When there were no official requests we can't fully say the team blocked it even if they did it should have been stated somewhere. They hype of Bastini moving to Barcelona before the transfer window was enough to get the headlines almost like that of Julian Alvarez who we can say was actually a target for them.

Chelsea were aware that Enzo Fernandez wants to leave the club. They also consented to the departure of other midfielders. While other clubs were identifying replacement immedayely fater they end of the season, they were docile. Now they are forced to improvise with defenders in a key position like the midfield.  The disappointment in signing Lamine Camara is unfortunate, but Chelsea shouldn't have waited till the deadline to close such an important deal. Lets hope that the new Chelsea mamagment will be more proactive.

To be honest I would say xabi Alonso did a good job with the signings but he did not do a complete job
Xabi Alonso just worked in the Chelsea's attack by signing a key player that was definitely needed (Rogers) but with the departure of Enzo Fernandez I do think that he would have also focused on equipping midified and also he's defense as well.
We all had rumors of Chelsea wanting to win the league even from the star goalkeeper Martinez but how do they set target so high and still fail to get good players that can hold their defense and midfield. I've never heard of any team that win a League without a good defense that should also be their main focus, I did not see any significant signing they did to improve their defense and that is very disappointing from xabi.

Chelsea made quite couple of profits in the transfer window this season and they failed to sign the back up replacement for Enzo Fernandez who pushed for his exits from Stamford Bridge this season and joined Manchester City. I do not understand Chelsea because tell me as an elite team, how're you failing to meet up when it comes to making prestigious signings? It doesn't always work for them.

Xabi Alonso football, I think we expected too much from him and it also contributed to the reasons why Chelsea fans are not happy and the players are not having the best of their time on the pitch. Chelsea team is no longer active as it use to be and we're seeing the main players getting flopped.

Well , he's also afraid of future just like every other players. The moment the team can't perform, no upto their previous standard most of their will be consider useless the more they stay in the club. Will like to ask, is he  getting enough chance to play ?

Luzin added that he's trying to go for Barcelona.  I don't  know if that's a right decision because he's  likely to play for the second team and even if he manages to get to the first teamor seal it directly, he will need a very good consistent performance to retain a position and good playing time.

I don't think you have any knowledge about Chelsea's transfer and performance, if you do then you would appreciate the efforts Chelsea put into signing an Enzo replacement.
Everyone is saddened that they failed to get their top target as Enzo replacement, not because they didn't want to but because they didn't have enough time left in the transfer window to make it happen and now they are suffering it. Caicedo's injury made it worse, caught them by surprise. James and Lavia are still being monitored, they're not fully recovered that's why Chelsea are still struggling.
Xabi Alonso started well, it's clear where the issue is from. This is how it'll be for now. It's never going to be easy visiting Brentford home, I just hope Alonso learns a lot from this match.

It was a very big mistake from Chelsea, they would have confirmed the replacement of Enzo Fernandez before selling him to Manchester City. Although I love how Chelsea and their fans are feeling the absent of Enzo in their club. Many of them were insulting Enzo that he is not vital to their club when he moved to Manchester City. Now their bad season has already started. Just can’t imagine where they will be in the table before January transfer window opens. I don’t know how Xabi will navigate this team without a well recognized midfielder.

No, it simply means they think they are smarter than everybody but they're not. Just look what they did with Alvarez: before they found an agreement with the player and then they submitted a ridiculous offer to Atletico. With Inter they did the same thing. I'm a Juventus fan, I really dislike Inter, but offering 40 millions for Bastoni is an insult even for me.

100 million for Álvarez (after Real offered 150), 40 for Bastoni This club is trying to find miracles, but those days are long gone. Brand power might have worked 30 or even 20 years ago, but nowadays money is what decides everything. Money comes first, everything else follows. Plus, to be honest, with all due respect to Barcelona and their success in La Liga (which I acknowledge as a Real Madrid fan), they are not a brand that can guarantee anything. Even the La Liga title is not guaranteed, as Real will come to their senses someday, it is inevitable, and they have been in the Champions League for 10 years now on same level like every mediocracy club.

As I was saying before, more than trying to find miracles they are trying to find stupid people. It's the only explanation for these senseless offers they make.

[LUCKMCFLY]

It would be very good if they can spend such amount to just get bastoni which I doubt Chelsea would do that currently on another defender, 80 million pounds I a huge amount of money and I would expect them to be very sure that he is the right choice before they seal the deal.

Yes, I know it's a lot of money, but honestly, that player is worth it. Besides, he'd be an excellent fit for Xabi's team. They might actually buy him because they lost Cucurella and now they have that gap to fill. Finding a profile like Cucurella's is very difficult since he's a player who attacks so effortlessly while defending incredibly well he's very complete.

Bastoni would make a real difference. He'd be a solid player and could truly have a positive impact on the team overall. If I were Chelsea, I'd sign him.

[m4r1o]

That's just the problem now, their limited budget makes it difficult to get him now and then Chelsea in the race now makes it even more difficult for them. Bastoni would had a lot of strength and experience to the Barcelona defense but unfortunately they don't have enough funds to get him. I do sometimes wonder how Barcelona keep dreaming of having such highly rated players when they don't have the money to get them. Clearly Inter would only release Bastoni when the price is met so what is Barcelona expecting. They are indeed just lucky to have Hansi Flick,  and u think the style of play is the only way they can see the best of the players they have.

If Barcelona were ever able to land a player like Bastoni to pair with Koulibaly, then Barcelona would almost have a permanent team. They would only need a real striker and number 9 to use as a first striker and then they would truly be the best prepared team of all the championships.

I don't money alone is enough to convince him because big clubs were interested in signing him but he still stayed at inter, so if Chelsea really want him they will have to give him good offers to leave inter

I think Bastoni wants to stay at Inter as he is an Inter fan himself and has many friends in the same team.
I hope that the player will decide to go to Chelsea only when the club itself decides to no longer consider him fundamental to the project of the club and the team. In any case, i don't think Chelsea will spend such a high amount.

Chelsea made important signings in the midfield with Rogers and Henderson and that should have boosted their team performance with the presence of Enzo Fernandez but it was clear that he wanted to leave the club. The problem with the Chelsea team now is the defence, and their game against Brentford exposed that too.

Alonso should look into signing an experienced defender in the January transfer window to coordinate the defence with the displacement of Reece James in the midfield role. The defence looks disjointed unlike the attack and with the current defence, there is every chance that they concede more goals in the incoming matches.

Bastoni can leave anytime he want to leave the club if the club he likes comes for him. All he has to do is ask the club that he wants to leave. Before a club like Inter Milan will release a player like Bastoni, that they don’t want him anymore at the club, just know that he might have grown old because I don’t see the possibility of Inter Milan releasing a young and vibrant defender like Bastoni leave just like that. Chelsea needs young and vibrant defenders that they can make use of immediately. The club is in shambles right now.
