La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Adbitco]

I think Rodrygo with his position as a right winger is still very suitable to stay at Real Madrid. Because in the previous season Rodrygo was able to appear regularly at Real Madrid and scored quite a lot of goals and assists. This proves that a coach like Ancelotti really trusts Rodrygo. So Xabi should also think in that direction and keep Rodrygo at Real Madrid. Because in the Club World Cup, Rodrygo also made quite a good contribution with Real Madrid. So that should be a consideration for this matter. Because currently Real Madrid does not have a truly great right winger. Although there are Brahim Diaz and also Arda Guler. But I personally am more convinced that Rodrygo is a better right winger than those 2 players.

So I hope Rodrygo remains at Real Madrid. Besides, I think rather than thinking about Rodrygo, I think Real Madrid is better off improving their midfield. Because in my opinion, currently there are no truly reliable midfielders at Real Madrid. Because as we know, Tony Kroos is no longer in Real Madrid and Modric as a senior midfielder in Real Madrid has been confirmed to leave this season, because his contract was not extended in Real Madrid. So with that I think Real Madrid must focus on improving their midfield. Because in my opinion Real Madrid's midfield is currently not as good as when Tony Kroos was still there.

Talking about Toni Kroos, yes his ab excellent player but his retired now and Real Madrid has moved on. They even won the league and Champions League without him in the team, so yes the club has moved past that, every player brings in their own flair to the team and we should appreciate what the current team is doing now. We should stop looking for players that plays exactly how a particular player plays instead we should look for players that fits into the role of the supposed position they are playing. Till date no Barca midfielder has been able to replicate what Xavi, Iniesta and Bosquete did for the team but they team has moved on. For Rodrygo, I think the clubs management wants to cash in on him because they've even reduced the transfer fee that was initially attached to his name.

[ShowOff]

Personally for me I don’t think Barcelona need Nico Williams, if they wanted a left winger they would have gone for Ademola Lookman who is cheaper and more efficient. But then, I think they’re bringing him in based on his relationship with some of the barça players and he already has a sync with Lamine Yamal so adapting wouldn’t be a problem.

The player wants to go to barça, Athletico Bilbao tried to hold him down last season gave him the no.10 jersey but they might not be able to hold him any longer.

Barcelona will need a scorer if Lewandowski leaves Barcelona. Nico Williams is talented. But can he play in Lewandowski's position? Also, does Nico Williams have the ability to score as many goals as Lewandowski?

Nico Williams only scored 5 goals and 5 assists last season. So I don't think Barcelona will get a good performance from Nico, as Barcelona needs a scorer. Even then, Barcelona will probably add Williams to the squad at the request of Yamal and Pedri. But I think Barcelona will need to buy an experienced scorer again in the next few seasons. However if williams' performance  improves with the help of Hansi flick, the scenario will change.

Barcelona should be looking for a center forward to be plotted as Lewandowski long term successor. Nico Williams is indeed a talented player, but his arrival might threaten Raphinha position, and I don't think Hansi Flick will turn one of them into a center forward after Lewandowski leaves later. Barcelona front line productivity is actually quite good, Barcelona should not need to force themselves to recruit a winger.

So far there has been no official news regarding Nico Williams transfer, many people believe that an agreement will be reached soon, but Barcelona must first ensure that the recruitment does not have the potential to violate La Liga FFP rules. It is only natural that Athletico Bilbao are trying hard to hold back Nico Williams departure, they don't want to lose their best asset.

[GiftedMAN]

It is indeed very interesting to talk about Nico William and Barcelona, ​​because he is one of the top players that Barcelona has wanted since last season, but it has not materialized. Meanwhile, Barcelona must buy him according to the release of Calus from Bilbao, and on the other hand, Nico's contract in Bilbao is still until 2027.

And the problem is, now La Liga has also warned Barcelona to be aware of La Liga's rules, regarding player salaries and registration. This happened because of complaints from Bilbao as conveyed here:
...

It doesn't look like Athletic Bilbao has complained about the situation.    The source is Fabrizio Romano again so this very awkward...

He is still keen on completing the deal. Barcelona is only needed to pay for Nico's release clause and that's it. They just don't want any installments like I said before.

I hope Barcelona finishes it without making a regulation breach.

Nico Williams is from Spain so what do you expect, that Barcelona should leave their own soil player and go for an Africa player, NO I don't think so. However, Nico Williams collaboration with Yamal will be great in the attack because I have seen both players in action when they were playing alongside with each other. Joan Laporta knows what he wants.

Barcelona have their reasons for going for Nico Williams instead of Ademola Lookman I don't think it has anything to do with the country of origin of the players, you already know the reason why Barcelona is bringing in Williams to pair with Yamal having watched them play for their country I think the management of Barcelona saw that it will be a good combination playing both players since they are both young and very fast with the ball.

The duet of Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal has proven to bring trophies, we have seen it proven when they played for the Spanish National Team. Barcelona certainly craves that combination, they want to have a sharp and luxurious front line like Real Madrid. The recruitment of Nico Williams will make Hansi Flick job easier, but Barcelona is faced with a difficult situation to complete the deal, the management and club officials must find a way to balance spending so as not to violate FFP rules.

[Bitcoin_Arena]

Barcelona should be looking for a center forward to be plotted as Lewandowski long term successor. Nico Williams is indeed a talented player, but his arrival might threaten Raphinha position,

Raphinha wasn't high rated before last season, though, so his performance came in as a surprise to many. Barcelona managed to pull through some part of the season without solely relying on Lewandowski. They were firing from all cylinders, so I believe they will be just fine.

The goal is to buy Nico and create a Spanish connection in the team with Yamal. This can be very beneficial in the long term.

[baeva]

Despite the rumors i find it difficult to believe that Real Madrid are willing to let Rodrygo leave the club. Real Madrid are not needing the money they will get from selling Rodrygo to use buy another player or for paying other players, Madrid have enough to pay all players and sign future deals without worry, something we won't see them do is throw away important players like Rodrygo, i doubt the deal for Rodrygo to go through.

Real Madrid is a club that does not want to keep extra players in the squad. If Rodrygo is not in Xabi Alonso's match strategy, then Madrid management will not think twice about selling Rodrygo. I would say that Rodrygo's future depends on Xabi Alonso. Perhaps Alonso does not like Rodrygo's style of play.

However, my question is which player Madrid is willing to add to the squad as an alternative to Rodrygo. Because if Rodrygo leaves the squad, there will undoubtedly be a big gap. It is not possible to depend on only Vini and Mbappe for the entire season. Since Madrid has a busy schedule. Madrid competes for every title in the Champions League, La Liga and Copa del Rey. So it is not possible to maintain stable performance for the entire season by depending on only two forwards. As well who is their alternative if Mbappe and Vini face injuries? After finding a suitable replacement for Rodrygo, the decision to sell Rodrygo should be taken.

Remembering how many injuries the team had last season, it's obvious that they're not going to make it to the end of the season anyway with no alternatives. I don't know why, but Real players are constantly getting injured, even though the tactics of the game are not aggressive, it's not clear why they get injured. I'm particularly interested in how Alonso will mould the game, given that both Mbappe and Vinicius are constantly fighting for the lead

I don't know if the injuries have anything to do with the intense training schedules, but I think it's because of the difficulty of the training. Because so many players have been injured and it can't be a coincidence that there are so many injuries. Maybe the club doctor should have warned the Real Madrid coaches about this. The poor performance of last year, when Real Madrid had many injuries, is on everyone's mind. That's why I think they will be more careful with the injured this year.

The federation has already answered that it will not change the dates of games because of European tournaments, that players should be ready for the load, but nevertheless I do not think that so many injuries of Real Madrid last season are related to the tight schedule, still the players really should be ready for such a heavy schedule, because no one should postpone matches just because someone participates in European tournaments and someone is not

The recruitment of Nico Williams will make Hansi Flick job easier, but Barcelona is faced with a difficult situation to complete the deal, the management and club officials must find a way to balance spending so as not to violate FFP rules.

Yamal and Nico Williams have indeed performed perfectly in the Spanish national team but it is not certain that they can perform well in Barcelona because there are several factors that may affect their performance. I do not doubt the players but sometimes something we hope for cannot always be realized according to our expectations. We can see Mbappe who is highly expected to perform extraordinarily but in fact has not been able to perform optimally at Real Madrid. But in any case, hopefully Barcelona can recruit Nico Williams so that the competition between Madrid and Barcelona will be interesting again like before.

Yeah I agree Barcelona took the right step if they managed to bring in Nico Williams and the combination of Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal is really reliable as we can see in the national team. Based on the price 70 million it is not a high price for Nico Williams it can even be a profitable investment in the future because as a young player he can achieve many targets, compare if Barcelona bought Viktor Gyökeres from Sporting for the same price or higher but a different age

I don't know what the real news is, or maybe Bilbao complained to the president of La Liga, but Barcelona didn't consider it a complaint. But, the drama about Nico Wiliams is getting more interesting. Because until now, all of that is still always new in words and rumors. 

[armanda90]

I think Xabi Alonso is still not intending to sign a few more players. He already has a lot of players in the squad depth, and adding more players will definitely not be a good step. Anyway, Rodrigo is a good player he has a lot of qualities, and also he is a young player. So if Xabi Alonso keeps him for the rest of the season, then probably he can also be a beneficiary for his team.

Apart from this, if we talked about his transfer rumors, then we can clearly monitor it well that Arsenal is the one that is strongly interested in his move. Like Mikel Arteta is the one who is in an intense push to sign him for his team. Now we don't know what will happen next. Will Xabi Alonso keep him in his team, or will hesell him for a business...?

So far, after several success recruitment Real Madrid not linked yet for signing new players and Xabi Alonso looks enjoying with his current squad performed quit well at FIFA Club World Cup matches. Recently Madrid have signed three top players from Dean Huijsen, Trent Alexander‑Arnold and youth potential player Franco Mastantuono indeed have rumor will sign Benfica left defender Álvaro Carreras but right now this rumor have gone.

Can't predictable at the future regarding have many weeks left for window transfer opening and financial supported make Madrid easily to sign their target player, but regarding team composition right now likely Madrid have completed squad after signing new defender and promising performance from Gonzalo García. So Madrid just prepare with the recent squad for performing well at domestic league next season and must be winner at FIFA Club World Cup.

[Solokan]

I don't know if Barcelona came prepared for Madrid in this last concluded season because the way and manner the handle every game concerning Madrid is just different from previous season and I wonder why they that's Madrid hasn't been productive when they play against Madrid and it is clear that Barcelona dominated Madrid in every aspect last season and if care is not taken, it will continue next season. Madrid are doing well, let's leave it that way, but in the FIFA CLUB WORLD CUP they are not up to speed like we know them the season they won the champions league and I think I'll have to blame it on injury and playing players in a different position, imagine the back line of Madrid, is only 1 player that you can say if a defender, the rest are midfielders that are converted like Tchouaméni, he hasn't been at his best even in this competition.

in this summer transfer market it has been confirmed that nico william has joined barcelona, ​​​​and of course this will further strengthen barcelona's attack line, moreover nico has quite good chemistry when playing with yamal, and we can see that when the two players play for the spanish national team. and to anticipate barcelona's attack line, of course as you said that real madrid must strengthen its back line again. if not, it is possible that madrid's back line in the next meeting with barcelona will be messed up by the two boys. and i quite believe that xabi alonso is able to overcome this.

And back to the club world cup, in the last 16 real madrid will face juventus, and of course this will be quite an interesting match to watch, moreover it has been a long time since the two teams have met, for the last time madrid and juventus met in the 2023 season, and that too in a friendly match.

Real Madrid will certainly face a very tough challenge if they do not immediately bring in more good defenders and of course it is true that one of the reasons Real Madrid's performance is not good in the 2024-2025 season is of course because Real Madrid does not have good defenders because some of their good defenders are injured and of course this has a big impact on Real Madrid's game.

Yes, with Nico in Barcelona, ​​of course it will have an impact on Barcelona's strength, which of course Barcelona's strength will be even better and will definitely be better than the 2024-2025 season. Of course, there will be a Yamal and Nico duet in the matches they will play and of course this will make next season even more interesting. Of course, we'll just have to see what Xabi does in the coming season, whether he succeeds in making Real Madrid even better or not.

it is true that the Real Madrid vs Juventus match will certainly be very exciting because they have not met for a long time and of course in that match if I'm not mistaken Real Madrid lost with a score of 3-1 so of course in the match they will play in the Club World Cup in the last 16 it will definitely be exciting. but it seems like I will bet on Real Madrid's victory, what about you?

Well you are correct GiftedMAN, I don't think rejecting Ademola Lookman and going for Nico Williams is because of the country Ademola Lookman is from, for me the main reason Barcelona is going for Nico Williams is because they have seen Nico Williams and Yamal play together and they have seen what they do together and how they play in unity and to them it will be more good if they bring in someone they are very sure can work with yamal to win matches, this is the reason why me I believe they decided to go for Nico Williams and not Ademola Lookman.

However for me I believe Ademola Lookman is more good than Nico Williams and will perform better than Nico Williams, we have seen how good Ademola Lookman is and if he is in a club like Barcelona he will perform very well and he will shock a lot of people his a very good player and I'm very sure he will work with Yamal very well.
Good luck to Barcelona I love the move they are making to adding another good player to the squad, I believe next season they will perform even more better.

[BlackBoss_]

Good luck to Barcelona I love the move they are making to adding another good player to the squad, I believe next season they will perform even more better.

Nico Williams is younger than Lookman and he has two big advantages against Lookman: his experience in La Liga is what Lookman does not have and will need time for adaptation to a new league; and his understanding as well as good combination with Lamine Yamal in Spanish national team recent years. It is another disadvantage of Lookkman who will have to get familiarized with Yamal and build up bonds with other new teammates.

I believe transfer prices of Nico Williams and Lookman are not too different and both are expensive. However perhaps Nico Williams will cost Barcelona more money for his wage.

In my opinion, it is best if Barcelona will neither buy Nico Williams nor Lookman in order to focus on improving their club finance and resolve current debt gradually season by season.

[Gallar]

The duet of Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal has proven to bring trophies, we have seen it proven when they played for the Spanish National Team. Barcelona certainly craves that combination, they want to have a sharp and luxurious front line like Real Madrid. The recruitment of Nico Williams will make Hansi Flick job easier, but Barcelona is faced with a difficult situation to complete the deal, the management and club officials must find a way to balance spending so as not to violate FFP rules.

Yes, that's right, if Barcelona can bring in Nico Williams, it will certainly make Barcelona's front line sharper. Because currently in Barcelona there is Yamal, Nico's best teammate when he was in the Spanish national team. Besides Yamal, there is also Dani Olmo who will certainly make their game combination even cooler if they both play in the same team. So I also hope that Nico can be brought in by Barcelona soon, because even though their current performance is quite good, but if they add great players like Nico, I am sure that next season Barcelona has the potential to win many trophies. Because this season Barcelona has also won 3 domestic trophies, so if next season Barcelona is strengthened by Nico, of course I think Barcelona can get the Champions League trophy.

But as you said, bringing in Nico is not an easy thing for Barcelona. Because as we know, Barcelona's current financial situation has not fully improved. So with this, Barcelona really needs to be careful about bringing in players like Nico. Because if Barcelona violates the FFP rules, of course it will have a bad impact on Barcelona. Because it is certain that if Barcelona violates the rules of FFP they can be fined and maybe even worse. So Barcelona in the current situation really has to be careful because if they violate again of course it is not good for their financial situation which is currently not recovered. So the point about bringing in Nico is that Barcelona just needs to try as best they can, but don't go overboard.

In my opinion, Nico Williams is a better player than Lookman. Of course, I am not underestimating Lookman, but if I had to make an option, I think it would be more logical for them to use the Spanish player. Because he knows Spain well and will not have the language problems that a player from another country would have, and he will also play with his friends from the national team. Therefore, if we think logically, I think the right decision is to buy Williams.

[Slow death]

The problem is that when Barcelona have Raphinha injured and Lewandowski also injured, Barcelona's attack becomes non-existent, even with Yamal on the field and they will lose a lot, and if the injuries are long-term, then Barcelona will not be able to achieve anything.

In my opinion, Barcelona should make a financial effort to sign Nico Williams and sign some other very skilled player capable of replacing Lewandowski, that way when Lewandowski and Raphinha are injured, the team will continue to be strong in attack and win games.

Lewandowski is now a player close to retirement and I don't know if he will still perform at a high level for Barcelona. It must be admitted that he was really good last year, but we are all waiting for his performance this year with curiosity. The Polish striker will recover more slowly from possible injuries as he is getting older, which is a negative situation for Barcelona. They should definitely transfer a good and quality striker instead. Barcelona can reach better places with these two transfers this year. I agree.

It was reported some days ago that Athletic Bilbao called on the La Liga organizers to look into Barcelona’s financial situation to see if they are able and fit to make such a transfer because they don’t want to lose their key player. However they can still hold Barcelona down if they ask that his release clause be paid in full at one go instead of in installments, this could be a problem for Barcelona and could help them secure their player.

Hansi Flick knows very well that relying on Lewandowski alone is a big risk. Because Lewandowski is now 37 years old. So far we are getting good performances from Lewandowski . And his fitness is also quite good. But is it guaranteed that  Lewa will not face injury next season? Barcelona is definitely lucky if Lewandowski  does not get injured. However, it is quite difficult for a 37 -year-old player to serve the club for a full season.

For this reason, Barcelona is interested in buying Nico Williams.  Nico and lewandowski have completely  different playing styles. Also, Williams is not a regular scorer. Even then, Williams will be added to the squad because there is a friendly relationship between Williams-Yamal. We have seen this pair perform brilliantly in the Spanish squad.

For the next two seasons I believe Lewandowski is still able to play at a good level but Barcelona needs to find a replacement figure because it is feared about the injury experienced by him.
He can be a distinguishing figure in the team because of the maturity and experience they have so that this is an advantage for Barcelona.
Age can indeed affect speed a little but if Barcelona has a number of creative midfielders it will not be difficult for Lewandowski to play at a better level.

A substitute figure can be used as an alternative because the coach can more easily rotate and I think Barcelona does need the figure next season because they will play in many competencies.
