La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[arimamib]

It seems like that was the main agenda for mbappe. He doesn't wanna lose his compensation as well. Mbappe has been rumored to get a lot of offers from the various clubs. Real madrid was not even sending a bid for mbappe.
That's a possible scenario to happen. Mbappe's mother is in discussion with PSG. We will see what kind of agreement is being reached by PSG and mbappe's mother. It's very hard to tell that if mbappe will be staying till next year caused by PSG intends to sell him as soon as possible.

Some clubs have interest to buy mbappe but his clause release was too big even for EPL clubs. Real madrid will not care about that till next year. The club is now focusing on getting a new striker. It will be helping so much to have more striker as backup once joselu may face injury with real marid.

Mbappe was creating so many fake rumors to appear anywhere. I would like to give him award as the most controversial player for this decade.

If I think the situation between Mbappe and PSG will never end if there is no published agreement regarding a one-on-one meeting between the owners of PSG and Mbappe.  Before that the media always fried hot news to attract thousands of readers on their sites. I'm not really thinking about Mbappe release clause because if PSG are serious about selling Mbappe to any team for the price they want, surely some formal offers will come from any team with strong finances.

But because Mbappe is a golden boy at PSG, I'm sure PSG will sell him to a bigger team and the deal will probably be enforced on all points that occur later. If you say the finances owned by Real Madrid, of course they will be able to bring in Mbappe to become a player who will be plotted for their front line as a replacement for Benzema. But real madrid are still waiting for the right moment to do so and given the fact that they really want to have mbappe in their squad next season. Yes, the Mbappe transfer saga is definitely hotter and the most expensive transfer that can break a record.

The Mbappe, PSG and Real Madrid saga is taken much time as Mbappe is yet to determine is final decision to PSG. PSG are being careful of not to lose Mbappe to a free transfer and Real Madrid that wants him, I’m not sure they’re  ready to pay the asked price for Mbappe by PSG. We don’t know or can tell how long this deal is going to end but a final minute decision will be made concerning this and I’m very optimistic about it happening which come as a shock to all of us.

The most interesting thing is that during this transfer window, Real Madrid is officially trying to advertise its participation or interest in the situation around Mbappe, although of course it is clear that the main beneficiary at the moment is Real Madrid. The most surprising thing is that if you believe the rumors, Mbappe agreed to extend his contract in order not to leave PSG for free, but the departure of Benzema from Real Madrid forced Mbappe's side to change their plans.

 now the problem is that he already said that he would like to go to barcelona and that it was always his dream to go to barcelona, but i doubt that atlético madrid would facilitate a selling him to barcelona, so we'll see joao felix sitting on the bench at atletico madrid

It's unclear why Diego Simeone doesn't get along with Felix. But it looks like this happened after a defeat in a heated match against Real Madrid in 2022. Simeone was disappointed with the team's performance. In addition, Simeone seemed to feel a physical decline so he put Felix on the bench.
This decision seemed to make Felix dissatisfied, so he was loaned to Chelsea. At Chelsea he looks undeveloped and it seems Simeone is still not satisfied. So Felix's best option should be to leave Atletico Madrid

Atletico Madrid decided to spend very big budget to buy Joao Felix after some successful seasons in La Liga and Champions League. They repeated faults of many clubs as after overspending money, their performance became worse and affected their club finance. Worse performance, less income, more outcome from player transfer and salary, it's hard to maintain their healthy finance.

From Joao Felix side, he was too young when his record transfer happened and it's not strange to see he failed to cope with such high pressure from the transfer record, expectation from the club and fans.

This decision seemed to make Felix dissatisfied, so he was loaned to Chelsea. At Chelsea he looks undeveloped and it seems Simeone is still not satisfied. So Felix's best option should be to leave Atletico Madrid

The failure of Felix in Chelsea again proves that not all problems come from Atletico Madrid or Simeone. Joao Felix is more responsible for his poor performance recent years.

There is no doubt that signing Kylian Mbappe is the club's primary objective. Of undoubtedly, they had the player on their radar for quite some time already. On the other side, PSG's biggest figure at Parc des Princes, Nasser Al-Khelaifi, wants an enormous sum for the player. Kylian Mbappe has been an objective for the future for Los Blancos, and president Florentino Perez is determined to sign the Frenchman. He's an immense Mbappe admirer, and he's always wanted the excellent young player to be present at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium. Things will fall into place as the club's operations improve.

Yes, that's right, it's not clear why the two don't seem to have a harmonious relationship which impacts the coach's trust in the player. If it is based on an internal conflict between the two parties, then they should be professional for the needs of the team. If they act like that then it does not look professional and is not good for a team.
It is also possible that this is due to the high ego of Felix, because he is still young and usually young players still cannot control their high ego.
But on the other hand Atletico Madrid also still want him to be on the team.

The problem about Mbappe joining Real Madrid is not something small he first needs to solve the problem with PSG, the first and best thing to do is to stay in PSG for another season and then join Real Madrid without paying money and the other option they can have is to pay the money to PSG and buy this play for a huge amount of money which is going to be expensive for Real Madrid.

Let's take it as simple as possible:
 - Mbappe refused to extend his contract and will leave PSG next year for free.
 - PSG don't want to lose one of their best player and in case it is the case then not a double loss = him in person + money related to his exit.
 - Real Madrid is not in rush and could wait for another year to get Mbappe for free.
=> Losers = PSG only
=> Winners = Mbappe and Real Madrid
I expect a last day deal or even last hour deal between these 3 parties for half the initial money asked by PSG. There is another possibility, Mbappe to move to Real Madrid in the winter transfer window for something like €50m..

If Mbappe doesn't change clubs this season or extend his contract for one more season, PSG, Real Madrid and Mbappe can easily complete the deal. Real Madrid Mbappé might have planned nothing of the sort so Real Madrid are in no rush just waiting for Mbappe's logic to expire. PSG have been pressuring Mbappe to extend his contract but Mbappe has yet to extend his contract with the club. Thus, if Mbappe can stay at the club for another season without extending the contract, the French striker will join Real Madrid as a free agent member in the next transfer season.

Mbappe attitude of not wanting to extend his contract with PSG is evidence that has made the final decision for PSG, so far it has been PSG that seem to have hampered Mbappe departure to Real Madrid by setting a high price for his departure. Real Madrid interest in Mbappe has started to smell in the last few years, this time Real Madrid has a great opportunity to get Mbappe at a slightly cheaper price after PSG situation was a little under pressure due to Mbappe unwillingness to extend the contract offered.
The process of moving Mbappe is still very complicated, Real Madrid is still opening the door to welcome his arrival. I think sooner or later Real Madrid will introduce Mbappe as a new player.

Right conclusion I think, Real Madrid will wait until Mbappe contract expiry than have release transfer fees above 200 million euro as rumor publishing by PSG. Not advantage position for PSG release higher fees transfer for Mbappe because PSG in difficult position right now actually after Mbappe announcing he will not extend contract with PSG over next year. Probably, PSG can't sell Mbappe with current market values because many teams waiting until Mbappe contract over than pay transfer fees around 100 to 200 million euro.

Difference cases, if PSG want to drop transfer values under 100 million euro and Real Madrid seems agree with this values due they need new center forward after Benzema departure and PSG can't loss money if fail to extend Mbappe contract. What possibility happen between PSG and Mbappe? will release price transfer fees under 100 million euro or PSG keep extend him although become free agent next season if there not any teams want to pay highest transfer fees.

I think, Real Madrid will definitely sign in Kylian Mbappe in this summer no matter the money involve because their coach want potential player like kylian Mbappe to join the team so that they can eliminate errors from the team next season by winning the la Liga league title and other titles. Among the teams struggle to have kylian Mbappe in their team in this season are many, but based on the body language of kylian Mbappe prefer to join Real Madrid in this summer than any other teams, because he feel that he will be more comfortable to showcase his skills in Real Madrid than other teams. I believe, PSG management will not turn down the Real Madrid management offer again in this time because the amount of money they are demanding to release kylian Mbappe is too high but only Real Madrid management that try to negotiate well with PSG which is a sign that it will favour Real Madrid soon.

Yes the best option right now is to leave Atletico Madrid if you want to get more hours, ATM and Chelsea are not the right club for Felix. Indeed, indirectly Felix could not adapt to coach Diego Simeone's scheme so last season he was loaned to Chelsea. The latest news is that Felix has been criticized and will be audited by ATM regarding his statement which is considered controversial, he has told the media that he openly wants to fulfill his childhood dream by joining rival club Barcelona. Well-known transfer expert Fabrizio Romano also responded to this and said that it was possible that Felix would be released to Barca.

My prediction is that his move to Barca will be very difficult to happen in this transfer window, except with a loan option and permanent at the end of next season. I think the most plausible scenario for his move to Barca amid the interest of several other clubs for Felix.

You are right^^ and that does seems like PSG losing a lot here. PSG should have sold Mbappe when Madrid offered around 180m Euro but they convinced him somehow for contract extension. Now Madrid knows the advantage they have right now but I think another club joining the race might push Madrid to go serious with bids for Mbappe. Since most of the big clubs already have a good striker, I think Madrid is the only one there at the moment.

I expect a last day deal or even last hour deal between these 3 parties for half the initial money asked by PSG. There is another possibility, Mbappe to move to Real Madrid in the winter transfer window for something like €50m..

What if PSG doesn't receives an offer by the winter transfer window end? They have to let it ride as it is then and have to let Mbappe leave for free. 50m Euro is a lot less for a player with that potential. I would say at least 100m Euro or free.

Real without Benzema can expect very difficult times indeed.... Especially if they can't find any good top class attacking player.... But still all the talk about Mbappe is just rumours for now.... He probably won't play for Real this year.... And there's probably nothing wrong with that for either of them....

His relationship at Atletico Madrid did not seem to be going smoothly and in fact he hoped that Chelsea would make his status at Chelsea as a permanent player but unfortunately Chelsea did not do that, Barcelona is of course the most ideal club for any player but the problem is whether Barcelona wants him, with his performance of course Barcelona will think again even though he is at Nou Camp only as a loan player but paying the salaries of players who appear inconsistent is certainly a loss for Barca who are currently still in financial problems so they will be very careful in selecting players so that they still get achievements by also trying to make the club's expenses not swell.
He can play at another club if Atletico Madrid doesn't set a high price for him, PSG and Aston Villa are reportedly interested in him and at his young age if he can get more playing portions there will be great opportunities for his career to shine even more if he can get the right club, he only wants to play at a club that competes in the champions league and he should lower his expectations for now until he can show his good performance.

I am not a Madrid fan but I pretty sure that Madrid will be able to go through a difficult period without Benzema next season. there are still quite a number of players that can be relied on in the Real Madrid line-up, it just that this task will be a big problem for Ancelotti because it not easy to improve the performance of all the players without a star player in the team formation.
we don't need to have to talk about Mbappe because this is just an endless hope, I mean hoping that Madrid can bring in Mbappe just an impossible story that won't come true because on the one hand Mbappe currently doesn't have any clarity regarding Real Madrid.
there is one thing that makes me sure for the future of Madrid is that Ancelotti has a lot of experience that can bring Real Madrid to come strong in the summer and even though I am not a Real Madrid fan I will still bet on Madrid.

[Velvet78]

Real Madrid are really much weaker without a striker like Benzema now. That's why I'm seeing it certain that Real Madrid will bring a decent centre-forward this summer. But I don't understand why they aren't interested in Vlahovic while PSG are about to finish the signing soon. I believe he is one of the best alternatives for Real Madrid for this season.

I don't know maybe they don't want to rush this transfer in case something happens about Mbappe's situation. In the end we can still see another team trying to sign Mbappe by making a huge offer. In that case Real Madrid would like to save their funds for Mbappe transfer as they will need to spend insane amount of money.

Most chances as situation going right now we will have Mbappé in England because this is 100% sure Real Madrid will never buy him on this price and PSG will never like to lose this chance for having some good amount so right now no other league can afford him we have only three or four clubs which can do this deal, and he will be in EPL for the next few years then he can go to Real Madrid.

Even his mother is in talk with PSG, but he will not extend his contract and PSG will sell him in case they can decrease his value as well because release clause is very big which is surely not acceptable for the few clubs with his salary and other bonuses are also issue, but these all are negotiable Real Madrid is now looking for the better option even things are not favourable for them, but they have to go through live with this.

Because Vlahovic is not so strong that Real could be interested in him. If he was as effective as Alegre expected, then most likely Juventus would not sell him, and frequent injuries are also not in his favor. Of course, Real Madrid would like to see Mbappe in their team, but for now this will not happen, since his market price is too high and now it depends more on Mbappe himself, who must decide his own fate.

Benzema was the main striker of Real Madrid. So losing Benzema will definitely weaken Madrid's attack. However, Ancelotti chose Joselu as a replacement for Benzema. Joselu is nothing to ignore. He is a very talented player. He managed to score a lot of goals even against a team as weak as Espanyol. So I would say if Joselu can adapt himself well to the Madrid squad he should be able to score a lot of goals.

Madrid management does not want to rush to get Mbappe into the team. They definitely need a talented striker. But it is also important to consider whether Mbappe is suited to Ancelotti's strategy. I wouldn't be too surprised if Ancelotti doesn't include Mbappe in his match plan. Because Mbappe plays a bit selfishly. He does not want to cooperate with his teammates.

[Smack That Ace]

Osimhen is also priced very expensively by Napoli. There are even words on social media that the president of the Napoli club said that only PSG could afford Osimhen.
this could be a good trade-off actually if PSG wants to let Mbappe go to Madrid and sign Osimhen from Napoli. PSG are also having problems with Mbappe now, they have to sell him in the transfer market this summer if Mbappe doesn't want to extend his contract for at least another year.

If Madrid are interested in signing Osimhen, they will do so before signing Joselu from Espanyol. Even though Osimhen was linked with Real Madrid, it seems that Madrid did not make Osimhen a priority for them to bring in this summer's transfer window. the proof, Madrid prefer to borrow striker 33 years from Espanyol. after all, Osimhen is not cheap. some previous rumors said that the Napoli president would release his player with a price tag of € 180 million to any interested team. even the President of Napoli had said on several occasions, that only PSG were capable of bringing in Osimhen. unfortunately, PSG are not interested in the Napoli striker even if Mbappe leaves.
Other rumors, Madrid is so close to Harry Kane. but along with developments, Madrid is no longer looking for this English striker. and as we know, that Madrid wants Mbappe and vice versa Mbappe also wants to play with Madrid. we do not know, whether there is an agreement that has been made between Madrid and Mbappe as currently rumored. with speculation, Mbappe will not sign a contract and this season is his last. thus, Madrid can get the star with free agent status. unfortunately, this situation became a polemic. So, let's just follow the Mbappe transfer saga in this summer's transfer window, and whether Madrid will sign him. let's wait.

I do not think that Victor Osimhen is leaving Napoli. They are certainly giving him a lot of money to stay in Napoli. So I don’t think they will actually be successful in getting him. Real Madrid should actually look for other options. Because I do not think they will be successful, trying to get Osimhen.

I think if Real Madrid actually wants to bring in Mbappé, they will have to bring him in by spending a good amount of money. Personally, I don’t think PSG is going to let him go for anything less than 150 million. But I also do not think that Real Madrid is actually going to buy him at that price. But I don’t understand why Real Madrid is going to wait for him to be a free agent. Because a few seasons ago they were ready to pay 200 million for him.
