French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Leviathan.007]

After hearing about many superstar players joining the Saudi League, now it seems Saudis want to hire a player from PSG.
Marquinhos is the captain of PSG even during the time when they had many superstar players but he was not a famous player for PSG at all and even sometimes the fans wanted him to leave and now it seems he got an offer from Al Ittihad to play for this team in the next season.
Even PSG confirmed the offer they got from this Saudi team.

If Osimhen were so in demand, then some team would have bought him long ago, but he continues to play in Napoli, and all his possible transfers end only in rumors. Sooner or later PSG will win the Champions League, and Ligue 1 remains one of the top leagues that provides many opportunities for the player. Mbappe, by the way, came to PSG from Monaco, and now he is a Real Madrid player, in my opinion this is a very good career development, and it didn’t hurt that he started in Ligue 1.

As far as I know, last season Osimhen had a very large transfer market value which made many clubs unable to get him. Napoli also won't let other clubs get it easily. Because of that, they set a high price clause for Osimhen. This season Napoli's performance has been very bad. Osimhen managed to score 15 goals and was among the top scorers but was unable to provide a good performance for Napoli.

I think if given the choice in my opinion PSG is better than Napoli. They can almost always win the league so they will always be able to play in the UCL almost every season. But the problem is that currently PSG is not a good choice if you want to have a career. They are a good team but Ligue 1 is not as competitive as some of Europe's other top leagues.

Osimhen previously played for Lille before Napoli bought him for 60 million euros after he performed quite impressively during his season at Lille,  so It's surprising that Osimhen market value has also increased rapidly at this time, of course, Osimhen attracted the attention of many big clubs when he was able to help Napoli win the Scudetto last season, but at that time, along with a new contract extension, Napoli fenced him off with a fairly high release clause and making many teams choose to withdraw from recruiting him, previously PSG was reportedly very interested in bringing in Osimhen as a replacement for Mbappe but for some reason now it seems like PSG is not doing anything to realize their current interest.

The decline in Osimhen performance occurred while he was injured when helping Nigeria in the African Cup last season, but even so when he recovered and return to the team towards the middle of this season he was actually able to make Napoli improve again, In my opinion, Osimhen has made a big contribution to the team that has him, so PSG should be able to consider him as an alternative to become their main striker next season, PSG has a guarantee of qualifying for the UCL every season because they have dominated Ligue 1 so far and of course that is could be a step for Osimhen to become a main star in Ligue 1 , so this will enable him to become a target for other big teams in the future like just like Mbappe is currently.

England qjs always been osimhens dream, he wishes to play in an English team and as a matter of been particular, Chelsea has been his most preferred choice according to his statement long ago on the media, Jim not moving to nay other team yet is probably because he knows how crucial his next move will affect his career considering how popular he has become and so if he gets offer from any random teams away from his choiced leagues, he may most likely turn them down, currently if he gets an offer from Chelsea he would most likely accept that more than he would with PSG. Winning the champion's league no doubtts is possible at PSH but I don't think it still makes it an opportunistic team for players looking to advance career, appearing in the champions league consistently is their most obvious advantage and that is because the Ligue is yet to be so competitive to the point PSG will have to battle qualifications.

If Osimhen's target is a domestic title, then Paris Saint Germain could be an option for him because it is almost certain that they will be able to get the Ligue 1 title. However, I agree that if he cares more about his career, then I think it would be better for him to look for a better team again in competition. It's true, almost every season Paris Saint Germain can be in the Champions League, but every season they also experience repeated failures. they are not that great compared to other teams in the Champions League.
That depends on Napoli too, because if the price they set is high then chances are that only Paris Siant Germain will be willing to spend the money to bring him. The reason is that with the high price, other teams are thinking twice about getting his signature. Last season there were also many teams interested, but they couldn't afford what Napoli wanted in terms of price.

Osimhen was an option for PSG even in the last season. I think Osimhen could have even better performance in the last season when he was in the better form but now PSG knows they can't expect to see a miracle from this player but he can have a good performance like two years ago and he can be out of the good form like last season. I think there can be better options for PSG than Osimhen and they should not be worried and run for finding a replacement for Mbappe because Osimhen and Mbappe are not at the same level at all.

Though not the Premier League, PSG is strong in Ligue 1. Yeah, they steamroll the competition in France, but that's not a bad thing for Osimhen. That kind of persistent winning mentality can boost a player's game, especially in the Champions League

They know he scores goals, so Napoli can charge whatever they want. That's pennies for PSG. Osimhen is the striker they need to score regularly in Europe. They've struggled in the Champions League, but this person could make the difference

Not just trophies, but legacy. Osimhen has the potential to become a legend at PSG, and that's something you can't put a price tag on

Even PSG confirmed the offer they got from this Saudi team.

During his career he grew up at PSG and everyone knows him thanks to his expertise in leading this team for many years. But unfortunately his age continues to increase and in fact his performance is still good enough to be at PSG. However, no one knows the future and sometimes it comes faster than expected if in the end he chooses to leave PSG.

An offer from a Saudi pro league team will certainly be difficult to refuse, especially since Marquinhos is so full of titles and experience from his time at PSG that even if he leaves, the club won't be able to hold him back any longer. The rest is that PSG must be prepared to look for other alternative players to fill the central defender position that he will leave and I think if Al-Ittihad are interested in signing him then they must quickly provide a proposal.

But the problem is that currently PSG is not a good choice if you want to have a career. They are a good team but Ligue 1 is not as competitive as some of Europe's other top leagues.

Well I don't really know if PSG is far better than Napoli because the both teams are currently playing on different leagues that has different levels of performance but if we should consider based on the local league achievement is obvious that PSG has more to offer than Napoli because they have been wining the French league for seasons now and it has become a thing of habits for them because no matter any difficulties they would always win at the end.

But however in the case of Napoli is always very difficult for them and they even barely qualify for any league before the season runs out, well I wouldn't blame them because there is a huge difference between Italian league and French league because Italian league is difficult to play than French league because if PSG should play on the Italian league there is no way they would perform the way they are performing.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Currently PSG is not a suitable team for talented young players like Lamine Yamal or Osimhen if they want to achieve a brilliant career. PSG are one of the top teams in Europe but they are almost never one of the favorites to win the UCL. They dominate Ligue 1 and almost every year qualify for the UCL. But Ligue 1 is not a league with high intensity and strong teams. A team with a very large cash capacity like PSG can bring in any player they want. But not all players need money, especially if they are young players. I think it would be wiser for young players to choose career over money.

It's very true what you say, for me Ligue 1 is interesting , but it doesn't represent the strongest league in European clubs. If you want to measure yourself I think the first option is the PL, if not , the Second best option I see is La Liga , and the third option I see is the Bundesliga , which for me has a great level. Now as you say, you're right, some prefer money over career, but if they want money it's preferable to go to Saudi football, which isn't bad, they have a good level now , because it has a High level According to the games I've seen, and I think it has the Highest level in Football than Ligue 1 , of course that's my perception, I could be Wrong.

PSG wait for green light to take Liverpool star back to France

The Frenchman played 37 games in all competitions for Liverpool last season, contributing a goal and receiving five yellow cards. He received a red card against Arsenal in the 3-1 Premier League loss, suffering two yellow cards in the second half.

Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp rotated Konate with youngster Jarell Quansah to keep him fit for a longer time period. However, the 25-year-old suffered a surprise dip in form, struggling to display his usual dominance in the defence last season.

In any case, PSG wants high-level players to continue maintaining their lead.

A good player will not be able to provide good performance for the team if he can only work alone without any help from his own teammates on the team. So it would not be enough to say that Osimhen is a bad player because he does not get more good support from his teammates who may still be less able to provide the best passes to him when in the match. Because in fact he still has to be considered a good player at Napoli so that Napoli sets a high price for him so that other teams cannot reach him more easily.

French Ligue 1 which is mostly peoples called farming league having huge decline in quality and performance in last few years with no revival work done by French soccer Federation is surely miserable now things are going from bad to worse with PSG is having nothing to develop things as mostly they love to have quality players even on high price and done their job which is winning and having good results in UEFA Champions League in last few years they spend huge amounts on few transfers which fail to give them Champions League title, but sadly they are still failed to understand things and having no intention to change their strategy which give them better results and strong base of having quality players.

Now again they are working on few quality players to join them and having better results, but this is surely having not solid strategy for them to develop things we have reports they are working on few top players to join them for the next season, and they are able to stay at the top in this league and having good results in Champions League with all will be available in few days.

Osimhen bad situation is not about support from his teammates but because he is no longer comfortable with Napoli because of a problem with his own team. He has always been a good player in Serie A but he also deserves to be appreciated.

While perhaps Osimhen has no other choice but to join PSG, it is very easy for this team to spend large amounts of money and other PSG players are also ready to support Osimhen like when Mbappe was there.
Unfortunately, Osimhen is not interested in joining this League 1 giant because he is more thinking about joining a team from a bigger league. So we no longer need to work on Osimhen to come accept an offer from PSG.

PSG most likely have better contract terms, and I think better prospects in the Champions League than Napoli. If a football player feels that he wants to move on, then there is no point in keeping him. I don’t understand why PSG is a bad club for a career, they are the undoubted leaders in their championship, that is, this is an opportunity to get champion medals from another championship. In addition, they always strive to win the Champions League, and often get quite far. Of course, Ligue 1 is not as competitive a championship as the Premier League or La Liga, but you need to evaluate the capabilities of the club as a whole, and not just within their championship.

PSG must be very wise in responding to the possibility of Marquinhos transfer, because it could increase their workload in the transfer window. In my opinion, we should keep Marquinhos, he has just turned 30 years old and his performance is still very good. It will be very difficult for PSG to find other alternatives if they let their captain leave, his experience and understanding of the club is really needed. PSG must ensure the transition of players goes well, to maintain balance within the team, as many elite European clubs do. PSG must first think about a replacement for Mbappe, regardless of who they bring in. Releasing Marquinhos is not a necessity, because from a financial perspective PSG is still very stable. Indeed, the Saudi Pro League club can offer a fantastic amount of money, but it would be better for PSG to reject their offer for now.

It is only the Saudi Professional League and maybe the US Super League that can be able to sign a player like Marquinhos. I also think that PSG will be willing to let him go to earn money from his transfer and also reduce the wage bills. He has a contract with PSG till 2028 but the club might let him leave if they get an offer of about €60 million. The defender earns about €323,077-per-week who h is very high. His departure will not affect the club so much because Lucas Hernandez and Lucas Beraldo are worthy replacements for the Brazilian. His experience will be helpful in the Gulf league since they need players like him to mentor young players. The 30 years old player has won thirty trophies since he arrived at PS in 2013,.he has already made his mark on the French League.

30 years old Brazilian and PSG centre back who spend his careers 11 years here at the PSG is not well famous but now having under radar of Al Ittihad as they are trying to fix their problems which hurt them in last season, and they were not able to stay at the top of Saudi League with most chance we will have this transfer because now PSG is also trying to have new blood which helps them for having better results in all competitions he was one of the highest paid player under 20 at the time of this transfer from Roma.

Offer is surely going to be considered by the PSG Management because now having new coach at the both clubs and trying to bring improved things going to be helpful for them having good amount into their wallet after selling Marquinhos who is captain but not well favored right now due to having changes at this club under Luis Enrique.

When Napoli won the Scudetto even though Osimhen's transfer market value was very high, but other elite teams could certainly afford to buy him. But, because Osimhen chose to stay at Napoli, then the other elite teams failed to sign Osimhen. So, it's not about the high transfer market value, because Osimhen himself refused the offer from other elite teams and Osimhen received a contract extension at Napoli because Osimhen chose to stay at Napoli. But unfortunately, because in the last season Napoli got bad results and Osimhen's performance also decreased but, this moment Napoli still set a high price on Osimhen. Thus, the elite team that currently still wants Osimhen to be hesitant and full of consideration, because the performance decreased last season but Napoli still put a high price for Osimhen.

Of course, Ligue 1 is not as competitive a championship as the Premier League or La Liga, but you need to evaluate the capabilities of the club as a whole, and not just within their championship.

In my opinion, there is a big difference when you play for a medium team but are in a competitive league with a big team but are not competitive league at all, so indeed the situation and conditions will be one of the factors that really determine a player desire to join, but it is different with osimhen who really wants to join PSG but actually faces big obstacles with the high prices set by Napoli at the moment, we all know that Napoli chances of competing in Serie A are very small because they must to compete with many big teams and this is different from PSG which In fact, they have dominated Ligue 1 all this time, so as you said, PSG is like the king who has been replaced in Ligue 1.

PSG is fighting hard to get their first Champions League trophy at the moment, so Osimhen can use PSG as a stepping stone to get a better career and finances in the future, Joining PSG will of course guarantee Osimhen can continue to win domestic league trophies and I think there is no other team in Ligue 1 that can continue to be guaranteed to qualify for the Champions League every season apart from PSG at this time.

Osimhen was an option for PSG even in the last season. I think Osimhen could have even better performance in the last season when he was in the better form but now PSG knows they can't expect to see a miracle from this player but he can have a good performance like two years ago and he can be out of the good form like last season. I think there can be better options for PSG than Osimhen and they should not be worried and run for finding a replacement for Mbappe because Osimhen and Mbappe are not at the same level at all.

Your comparison isn't sounding solid, I know I'm the last season, towards the end of the league osimhen's performance did dropped and that too has affected his price but on a second taught it's possible there were factors that led to that which if taken care of he would do better, at PSG those factors that led to his poor performance may not be there but PSG still isn't a fit for him, his career may not do so well in PSG.

At the moment PSG isn't prioritizing getting him into the squad and he is yet to even show any interest in PSG as an option for his move, there were rumors of an interest in him by PSG last season before the end of the season but the deal didn't pull through and even now it's not looking like one that they would want to revisit again. Away from PSg, in other teams if osimhen gets and opportunity he's still gat some good potential.
