La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[JeromeTash]

I see zero rumour about Osimhen to Bayern Munich right now. I don't think that Napoli would let Osimhen go easily now as he is one of the most critical players for them. Bayern Munich are still in search of a striker indeed but we don't know anything about their targets yet. By the way I don't expect Ronaldo to be signed by Napoli now. His closest destination is Atletico Madrid but even that might not happen. As for Luis Suarez he is under the radar of Dortmund too now. In a possible race to sign him it is hard to predict which side he would choose.

So many rumours about Ronaldo going to different clubs. Hell I even so somewhere they said he would go to Barcelona or Arsenal  

What people don't know right now is Manchester United doesn't even have a good major striker if Ronaldo decided to go. Have you thought about him staying at Mn United instead?

I doubt if he will go to Atlético Madrid

[BuNga_cute]

Barcelona and Real Madrid has been busy in this transfer window trying to get in new players and fortify their team but Atletico Madrid aren’t doing so the most notable signing they have made is the Belgian from Dortmund other than that nothing out of the ordinary, I personally feel they believe more in their coach than in player, little wonder he is the highest earning coach in the world.

In a statement by the ATM president to the media, he said he was very happy with his current team and was very much ready for the 22/23 season. besides that he also said he was focusing on balancing the team's finances at this time, so he dismissed the news firmly when Cristiano was rumored to be going to ATM.

Cristiano Ronaldo has indeed been linked with Atletico, after Ronaldo said he wanted to leave Man United. But Enrique Cerezo as Atletico president
has made it clear that Atletico do not need Ronaldo's services. Cerezo asked to stop linking Ronaldo with Atletico, because Cerezo was quite satisfied
with Atletico's current squad. After all, Atletico actually already have quite a lot of strikers. At present, Atletico's strikers include Joao Felix,
Antoine Griezmann, Matheus Cunha, Angel Correa, Samuel Lino and Alvaro Morata. In my opinion, by having 6 strikers, it makes sense that
Ronaldo's presence is no longer needed. Compared to Barcelona and Real Madrid, Atlético has almost no transfer activity this year. It looks like Atletico
are ready to start the La Liga competition with the existing squad. I hope Atletico can do better next season even if they don't bring in new players.
Because if Atlético plays well, the competition in La Liga is much more interesting.

It has been a very disgraceful and hurting acts from Ronaldo.
It's over weeks gone and he has not reported to training.
He should just go ahead. Tuchel is angry with Barcelona for wanting their captain Azpilicueta

This must really be unacceptable for Manchester United. Ronaldo might be waiting to hear from Atletico Madrid now. However it doesn't seem like Atletico Madrid will go for signing him also. His salary is very expensive when we think about his age now. I think that they can find a more sensible player by paying much less money. As for Azpilicueta, this transfer would depend on whether Chelsea can find an alternative for him. He isn't an unimportant player for the team now in the end.

Rumors about Ronaldo's departure are getting more and more difficult for my brain to digest because it is getting more and more unclear and there have been so many teams that have been linked to him, although maybe this is only meant to be a warm-up.
At the moment we still can't see anything in terms of Ronaldo's move and he's still a part of United and I won't speculate much as long as he doesn't speak up because the chances of staying are still high if he stays silent.

[terrorJR]

Cristiano Ronaldo is looking at it the otherway he dosent care about Manchester United he just wants to break records and do more in the champions league. If they were in the champions league he would stay in the club but now he wants to leave but no body wants to pay for his huge salary

The problem is that the only La Liga team that has been linked with him is Atletico now who have the least chance in the Champions League than any other club at the moment.
For example, if he agrees to be here, does he just want to be here as a player from an additional club in the Champions League? Of course not because his ambitions are still very big and Atletico will not be able to satisfy Ronaldo's desires.

[hyudien]

Ten Hag and his team are patiently waiting for Cristiano Ronaldo to train together to strengthen Manchester United and make it even more compact. Let the rumors circulate, we can only wait for what CR7 wants to do for the future. The megastar will certainly choose his own path. Even though many are refusing the arrival of Ronaldo I think Manchester United will be his last home. Ronaldo is currently absent from pre-season due to family issues that must be resolved.
Ten Hag is still patiently waiting for Ronaldo's arrival and wants to immediately train him to combine Ronaldo with the Manchester United players.

That's what makes Manchester United really want Ronaldo to rethink his decision to leave. I think Manchester United is too good to be a home where Ronaldo is always welcome and so far no club has been as loyal to him as Manchester United have been. The superstar is in a dilemma of a decision that could make him extinguish or shine again. In fact, it does not matter if Ronaldo fails to qualify for the Champions League, because that will not reduce everyone's recognition of him. He is a player that Manchester United really needs at the moment.

Barcelona are trying to intervene Chelsea's Kounde deal now. They are trying their luck one last time to steal him from Chelsea in the last moment. However it is said that it is difficult for them to offer the same amount Chelsea have offered to him now. I'm not sure about that by the way because Barcelona have been spending a huge amount of money for some time. It is like they can afford everyone right now so we will find out if they will enter the race for Kounde again.

The barcelona's effort to hijack kounde was not successful like what happened with rapinha. Kounde itself has been giving his decision to the xavi. Kounde was going to the chelsea but i didn't even like how this club was always trying to hijack the players from the deal that has almost be made by another club. Kounde is going to the chelsea and no chance for barcelona to hijack kounde again. Kounde has been deciding his decision for that.

Barcelona have stolen two targets for Chelsea already from them. They are Lewandowski and Raphinha as you also know. Chelsea don't want to let them do the same thing one more time. I also think that Kounde deal is going to be completed by Chelsea successfully soon. There is already an agreement about the transfer fee actually. Kounde also seems willing to join them. Chelsea aren't in a big need of a defender now though but as long as they put Kounde in the lineup I support this transfer for them.

[nurilham]

I really don't know how much money they have left now. After spending that much money it really makes me feel like they still have some money left. Because they have completed two transfers for a big amount of money like these were not a big deal at all. You are right about the salary topic too. They must think of their expenses for salaries and bonuses in the future too and act according to that. When it comes to Tottenham's decision I also think that they wouldn't sell him while they are in need of him.

Indeed. We always heard a rumor that Barcelona has a financial problem. It is very doubtful how much money left after they spend more than €100m to sign Lewandowski and Raphinha. Now, they are still targetting some defenders, including Sergio Reguilón who is the main player in Tottenham. I don't think they have enough money to buy this player. They may only ask for loaning him if it is possible. On the hand, Barcelona is also trying to get César Azpilicueta who has a contract with Chelsea until Jun 30, 2023. So, Barcelona can't get this player for free. Does Barcelona really have enough money to buy these two defenders? To be honest, I doubt it as well. About the salaries, if Barcelona continues to buy top players who have big salaries, it can be a potential problem to happen in the future.

For Azpilicueta, he wants to move to Barca but it seems that Tuchel is still resisting his desire to leave although the arrival of Kounde. Maybe in 24-48 upcoming hours we will see an eventual move of the players if he and Barcelona make more pressure on Tuchel and Chelsea.
For CR7, Ten Hag is pissed from him and mentioned that he wants another offensive player in the field. It is an indirect message to CR7 that you are no longer considered or you should return to training right now. ATM rejected his arrival, same as Bayern and many other clubs that didn't want to offer him anything. I assume he is very pissed that no one wants him in. After all he might ask them to leave by the end of the next season if things weren't going well...

You are right. Barcelona becomes a big obstacle for Chelsea to get their targetted players in this transfer window. They missed Lewandowski and Raphinha, now they seem to miss Kounde as well. It is very difficult to compete with Barcelona because Barcelona is a more popular club. Although they are in a financial crisis right now, all players know how Barcelona history. So, Barcelona is still a favorite club for every footballer until now. Especially after Xavi becomes the head coach in Barcelona. Because of this reason, even Chelsea already gets a personal agreement with Kounde or gets a deal about fee transfer with Sevilla club, Barcelona is still possible to hijack Kounde as long as no official announcement related to Kounde transfer to Chelsea.

[naira]

I believe the management thought about it long before the deal happened, based on information from several media that Barcelona received funds from the sale of their broadcast rights to finance the transfer of players this season, aand the salary issue maybe it becomes the player's personality with the club regardless of the agreed solution. the fact that Lewandowski, Raphinha and several new players have agreed to join Barcelona, indirectly Barcelona have something they provide for the player's salary budget

Barcelona is a club that is always unpredictable. When we see the financial slump but there is another flow of funds coming in. That's how the public should not know in detail about Barcelona finances. Just look at the enthusiasm of Lewandowski and Raphinha, do they show a regretful face and question the salary? certainly not

This is precisely where Barcelona is seen as a suitable home for pursuing the careers of players who will shine.

[Rengga Jati]

For Azpilicueta, he wants to move to Barca but it seems that Tuchel is still resisting his desire to leave although the arrival of Kounde. Maybe in 24-48 upcoming hours we will see an eventual move of the players if he and Barcelona make more pressure on Tuchel and Chelsea.

I also read a rumor about Tuchel due to the move of Azpilicueta to Barcelona. But, there is new news again that finally Chelsea and Barcelona have an agreement on the Azpilicueta movement to Barcelona. But once more, there is also rumor that the move will be blocked. We can see it for further days.
Just in
This means that Barcelona really concerned again to strengthen not only their attacking lines but also their defense. However, the latest news also said that Barcelona is also concerned to contact Villarreal's center-back. Well, this is a good movement for Barcelona and they are very serious to strengthen their squad after their very difficult season lastly.
Barcelona contact Villarreal

Barcelona is now in dire financial straits. Yet they spent a lot of money on player purchases. Now they don't seem to be able to pay the players properly. Maybe next season they will reduce the salary of their players again. I think it shouldn't. Players like Raphinha and Lewandoski don't question about the salary, perhaps because of the potential for disgrace. But we must not forget that they are professional players, and they play for money.

I don't think it will be easy to deal with Barcelona's finances, but if it's about the future it could be about finances it's not always bad. Don't forget this is a big club, being dragged down by the financial crisis didn't stop them from improving their performance system. We haven't seen his debut with the new squad yet, so we'll see if it lives up to expectations or sinks again. Whatever the Barcelona financial crisis, we see it as a giant club that is currently undergoing a major overhaul.

His agent, Mendez very optimistic to bring Ronaldo back to Madrid (Atletico) but maybe because of financial problems, the deal is a bit stuck but it still can happen if Ronaldo cares to cut off his salary by 30%. Everything changes can happen, the transfer window is not closed yet until 1st Sept. As you said, maybe Barcelona, who knows, if Ronaldo wants, he can go to Newcastle too.

The Cristiano Ronaldo transfer puzzle is still a confusing transfer rumor in my opinion. Many teams rejected him for some reason, on the other hand the agent was very optimistic about his move. Manchester United seemed to be worried about this one player, actually they wanted to keep Ronaldo, but later they gave up and returned the decision to Ronaldo to stay or not.

I think it's just a coincidence, Barcelona are more advantaged because Lewandowski and Raphinha prefer to play for Barcelona than Chelsea. Long before the deal happened, these two players had expressed their dream to play for Barcelona. While Barcelona also opened the door wide to welcome the arrival of these two players.
Chelsea do not want to fail again on their next target, they must move faster to quickly complete the transfer of Kounde. Previously Kounde had also said he wanted to play with Barcelona, ​​but until now there has been no movement from Barcelona to sign Kounde. Chelsea can take advantage of this opportunity so as not to lose their target again.

Barcelona contact Villarreal

regardless of the rumors you say, barcelona is currently building the credibility of its squad again, i'm sure barcelona will bounce back next season, unhindered by the financial crisis the club is facing.
Barcelona currently have a formidable back line, Pique, Christensen, Eric Garcia, Segino Dest are likely to become right backs plus new signing Cesar Azpilicueta.

midfield balance although fenkie de jong is still uncertain about his future, but if he leaves this summer, barcelona still have a very balanced midfield, predi and gavi are two of the most promising and talented central midfielders despite being relatively young, plus Franck  Kessie is one of the best defensive midfielders.
If for the front line we know that Lewandowski is a player who is hungry for goals and I think Raphinha will play very well.

As far as I know Jules Koundé is ready to forget Barcelona and I think, Chelsea have completed this transaction but there is still no quick settlement. If Chelsea don't want to be cornered again then Chelsea must learn from Juventus, because after the departure of de Ligt and the next day, Juventus signed Bremer which basically Bremer was also interested in by Inter. With that said, I think Chelsea should be able to do the same to quickly complete the transaction because if not, then it's very likely that Barcelona with all its charms will have a better chance of getting Jules Koundé from Sevilla.
