La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[JeromeTash]

I don't think Real Madrid are the only team most likely to sign Mbappe if PSG want to sell him. Mbappe could move to a Premier League team if they offer value that is hard enough for PSG to refuse. You have to know that Real Madrid didn't want to pay Mbappe big money to PSG because apparently they just wanted to sign him for free.

The question is which Premier League team has got the balls to currently offer PSG about 200M 
Manchester City is definitely out of the question for now.

By the way, at one point Real Madrid offered PSG something like 200M or even over the value, but PSG was too stubborn to sell him off due to ego issues. I don't see why you said Real Madrid wanted to sign him for free. That was just their last option after PSG refusal of all the offers.

Wondering how Xavi is going to handle his team for the next season because as far as I know and I saw in the transferring situation for Barcelona they usually fail to hire the players Xavi needs because of the bad financial situation. On the other hand, Real Madrid had all they wanted to get and they are even waiting for Mbappe to leave his team for Real Madrid, also many other players like Osimhen can be alternative options for them which can be made them a scary team for the next season in La Liga.

In addition to City, there are at least 3-4 teams in the Premier League that can pay for Mbappe, after all, this is the most money league. Another thing is that he is not interested in moving there.
As for free signing, isn't it obvious that such a phenomenon already basically does not exist for top players? PSG was forced to give a huge signing bonus to Mbappe, although Mbappe was technically "free".

[Docnaster]

As far as I remember a year or so ago(when Mbappe interrupted what seemed to be a done deal) Perez said they wanted him for free, they weren't going to pay for it. In that case they will have a chance to do it in a year when Mbappe's contract with PSG expires. But I'm not sure he'll fit into Real's squad now...

Whether it fits or not is not seen from what has not happened, if indeed Perez wants Mbappe free, that means waiting is a good opportunity. Because by coincidence PSG still don't want to sell him even though this moment will benefit them instead of having to be in 2024. Regardless of where Mbappe is going later, so far the club that is closer to him is only Madrid and as he said Madrid was his dream club since childhood.

The truth is that Kylian Mbappe has had initial agreement with Real Madrid's president Fiorentino Perez even before the end of 2021/22 season but was surprised by Mbappe's last minute decision to remain at the Parc des Princes by renewing his contract with the French giants in a deal that made him the highest paid footballer in the world as of then.
That been said, Fiorentino Perez is a man whose interest for the player is still very much at it's peak. He still wants to bring the electrifying forward player to Santiago Bernabeu and if PSG fails to sell Mbappe to Real Madrid this summer they'll have to watch him go the Madrid next summer on a free transfer

I wonder who will put up for sale in the transfer market by barcelona. I have some potential names that will be sold by barcelona but so far, there's no official news about this published.

Here are names of the players that will be sold by barcelona.

1 Eric garcia
2 Ansu fati
3 Ferran
4 Raphinha
5 Kessie

I don't even know whether selling all of them will give barcelona 200 millions or not. As far as i know that if eric garcia joined in barcelona as free agent. It will be a bit profitable to sell him in summer.

Since there is no official announcement about which players to be sold, how do you know that these players are possibly put on the transfer list?
Actually, there are some players who deserve to stay. Barcelona also can't sell both Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres, they will have no left-wingers if they are gone. I think only 2 players who deserve to sell, Eric Garcia and Kessie.

Anyway, 200 millions is too huge money to achieve by Barcelona. I also doubt that selling those players to get 200 millions. Most of them are decreasing their market values, so Xavi can't sell him at their highest prices.

The latest news about Mbappe's sale is that he will be sold to Manchester United instead of going to Real Madrid. The reason why he prefers Manchester United is that the relationship between PSG and Real Madrid is not going well and there is a crash because the transfer offer made by Los Blancos is rejected by the French club.
the bomber has a market price of 180 million pounds. Even though it is expensive, Mbappe's presence at Manchester United will certainly add to Manchester's strength on the field because, Mbappe is currently one of the best strikers in the world.
latest information, Kylian Mbappe has informed PSG of his decision: he will NOT choose the option to extend the current contract until 2025, That means the above deal will expire in June 2024 says Fabrizio Romano

[Velvet78]

Currently, there are only two best possible targets for the Real Madrid with they are looking for the Mbappé but in case of having no positive signal they will go for the Harry Kane which is also currently refused by Tottenham management even in coming days we will have the good number of strikers available in market but Real Madrid mean best in business which is never been easy.

Carlos Ancelotti also have Gabriel Jesus and Richarlison in this radar as well but no green signal for these both as after exit of Karim Benzema situation is not good in the Real Madrid camp even they have few young talented players in their squad, but they are not going to take any chance which create problems for them after end of transfer window.

I don't know if any of Gabriel Jesus and Richarlison would be the best choices for Real Madrid. They are both way different kind of strikers than Benzema. You know how great Benzema has done for Real Madrid especially in the recent seasons. He isn't only a scorer. He cares about helping his teammates score as well and he had a really great bond with Vinicius because of that.

I don't know whether this bond can be created between Vinicius and one of those alternative strikers. Besides I would rather see strikers similar to Benzema at Real Madrid as long as they don't sign Mbappe. I exclude Mbappe from this because he is a rare talent and he can do much better than Benzema in the future.

This price will make Manchester United step down, friend. Because Manchester United will think long about buying Mbappe at a very crazy price. Mbappe is a PSG asset and however PSG will hold him back from leaving PSG in this season transfer window. Real Madrid in the previous season had expressed their intention to buy Mbappe but their offer was rejected by PSG. That will make it even more complicated for Real Madrid to make a bid for Mbappe in this season's transfer window.

Indeed, if you look at Real Madrid, they have a lot of money to bring in good quality players, but they will also look at it in terms of price. Ancelotti, a coach who is very good at targeting players, I think if Real Madrid don't get Mbappe this season, they will most likely get another sticker, maybe will be better than him.

[snipie]

Personally , I no longer believe in Mbappe drama transfer to Real Madrid , simply because France and PSG won't let him go and by the time they let him go , Real most likely will already have another top striker in their team. Remember that Real wants the best talent as long as they are still young and Mbappe might be 26 years old or maybe even 27 by the time he can transfer to Real.

PSG are in an awkward situation actually. They want to keep Mbappe with them or simply let him go with an awesome reward rather than seeing him walk for free next season.
It is known that PSG is pushing for an extension of contract with Mbappe, but it is clear that he will not do that since he counts on joining Real Madrid. Basically, PSG will be forced to sell him once they find a good substitute.

Mbappe has stated that if he is not interesting to join in another club this season but it's not for upcoming season. Even though if PSG will be forced to sell him but without personal agreement and it will be useless.
It's caused by there must be a personal agreement before the transfer will happen. It has become one of main requirement to make the transfer happen.
The club can't sell him if mbappe is not agree on it. PSG has two choices, keep him or terminate his contract. It's a way for mbappe to force PSG to terminate his contract.
I think that this can be considered as a pressure from mbappe to the PSG. Mbappe knew how the transfer process is working and that's why he was putting PSG in a hardest situation.

[zuzie]

Kylian Mbappe's contract with Paris Saint Germaine makes doesn't allow PSG to extend his contract without his permission and that's the main problem at the club right now because Mbappe has refused to extend his contract.
It now left for PSG management to keep him at the club till when his contract expires by 2024 summer and watch him leave the French capital for free or sell him this summer and make money from his sale. It's actually a big decision to make at the moment for the club's management considering the amount of key players that's left the club this summer

We know that PSG will lose around $200 million if they don't make the right decisions so far there are 2 clubs that are really interested in signing Mbappe
Manchester United and Madrid are the most serious when they release Benzema it means they need someone new to take on Benzema's role. This transfer drama is not as easy as we imagine there are several aspects to consider.

[bering]

~snip~

Now that's all done and Mbappe isn't going anywhere either and what Madrid have to do is still have to find a really good striker this time around because a substitute for Benzema with just Brahim Diaz won't be enough.

I got news in the local media. Real Madrid are interested in Joselu, he is a Spanish forward. Despite being 33 years old, maybe he can be a short-term solution, before Madrid get another attacker. He is not bad, in the 2022/2023 season, Joselu is able to score 17 goals from 38 games in all competitions with Espanyol. Madrid seem to have reached a personal agreement with the player Joselu. Although this is just a rumor.

At his current age Joselu still able to scores 17 goals i think this is very impressive performance because not many players in Laliga who are over 30 years old can able to performing well like him and although his team Espanyol has been relegated but Madrid feels Joselu can still be an alternative for a striker and Joselu will be at Madrid for loan option and it has a duration for 1 year with permanent buy option 1.5 million but this is not a mandatory requirements because if Joselu cannot able to performing well during season 2024 then Madrid will return Joselu to Espanyol without having to make his status permanent and i think the loan of Joselu is for reserved squad because obviously Madrid will still be looking for other players to strengthen their forward lines

Indeed, that is the reality and of course this amount of money is not small for Kylian Mbappe. Therefore PSG is desperate to sell Mbappe if he doesn't want to extend his contract immediately. On the other hand, this transfer drama will not end if it is linked to Real Madrid and maybe we will be able to find out next year, but for now it seems that Mbappe is not a priority for Real Madrid. We will also see how much PSG will lose if in the end Mbappe goes to Real Madrid as a free agent. Maybe it will be big news over the next year.

PSG has no choice regarding him. I meant PSG will not able to force him to leave from the club without him made personal agreement with prospective buyers. The fact that if PSG is only having a choice to let him stay for another season in PSG until he will able to leave with free transfer.
It seems like that mbappe knew that if a club can't force to sell a player without personal agreement. That's why PSG in a lot of disadvantages right now.  I think that if it can be seen from how mbappe is still enjoying to play in PSG.
He will be leaving with free agent and so many clubs will be giving various offers to join in the club, mbappe is such a multi talented players for sure.
Real madrid will not let him to go to the another club if he will be leaving from the PSG with free agent.

Mbappe can become next generation of benzema but real madrid is now focusing with joselu.

[Velvet78]

There are still news regarding Ancelotti to become Brazil manager soon. Brazil must be making a decent effort to convince him to manage themselves. After Tite's period has ended Brazil really need a trustworthy and successful manager to play bigger for championships finally. Ancelotti is obviously one of those candidates to lead this team to victories.

However I don't know what goes around Ancelotti's mind. He has one more year on his contract with Real Madrid. Maybe he would think of staying for that season as well and lead this team to get stronger with new additions in the summer.

On this current price of Kylian Mbappé 180 Million pounds most chances these both big clubs not try because they are not interested on this high price as Real Madrid is now looking for few other options and Manchester United is also having suitable replacements on suitable prices even they are not good as Kylian Mbappé quality but still can do good for their club which is acceptable for them.

Now with the option of he is not going to extend his contract and PSG is never like to allow him as free agent how things will be gone in next few weeks it's interested because we have one more club which can jump into this, but It's not sure with Newcastle United which is newly promoted to Champions League and want to make mark, but surely they will also not go with this amount at the end we have only Real Madrid but as all know not on this price.

At Real Madrid I haven't heard that Real Madrid want to replace Carlo Ancelotti and also that Ancelotti still seems to be at home at Real Madrid, so I think he will stay for at least one more season with Real Madrid at least until his contract expires. Brazil itself is serious about bringing in a coach and Carlo Ancelotti is one of the candidates they are looking at to be able to handle the Samba Team. While Carlo Ancelotti still wants to stay with Real Madrid, and Real Madrid still wants him to manage, it looks like Brazil will have to wait until the end of his contract.

Carlo Ancelotti if leaving Real Madrid and still want to manage clubs, will receive many offers from big clubs. In his career, he succeeds in Serie A, La Liga and Bundesliga, only failed in Premier League with Everton. At his age and at the end of his coach career, he will consider offers from clubs more carefully and if he continues with clubs, I think he will return to either Serie A or Bundesliga. Returning to Serie A, getting back to his homeland is good.

Carlo has never managed a national team so far and it will be good experience for him if he picks one big national team to do that. Brazil or Italy, that sounds good for a national team coach position. Carlo will have to wait till ending of Euro 2024 to see will he has chances with national teams especially Italy.

[cygan]

now, after fc granada and ud las palmas, the third and last promotion to the next la liga season is fixed.
in a dramatic second leg at ud lavente last night, deportivo alaves celebrated promotion to the highest spanish league after a year of abstinence. the winning goal was scored in the 120th +9th minute (the first leg ended 0-0). otherwise, a draw after 90 plus 120 minutes would have seen levante promoted as the better-placed club from the regular season.

The Arab leagues have always followed the star players. I think they're going to go after the big coaches now. There is no club that does not want a name like Ancelotti. That's why we may see names like Ancelotti in the Arab leagues in the near future. He may be over a certain age and want to earn a decent amount of money. After Ronaldo, many star names can go to these leagues. Ancelotti has proven itself in Europe now it doesn't need to do anything else.

He can earn more money when he goes to a team in the Arab league for 1-2 years instead of the Brazilian or Italian national team. It's not all about making more money, of course, but Ancelotti doesn't need to prove himself anyway. He can make this choice when he does not need to prove himself.
