Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

That's why Man United is very keen to chase Varane right now and also interested in signing Jules Kounde from Sevilla. Of course, to be able to bring in one of these players, Man United had to prepare a lot of funds because both players will definitely be released at a high price.

Reportedly, both Varane and Jules Kounde are interested in playing at Man United, so Man United will soon get a new defender if the deal has been reached.

Manchester has good finances and it won't be a problem to buy an expensive defender. I see that Manchester United have followed in the footsteps of Manchester City this season and are trying to strengthen the defensive line well. This is the right decision, as the best attack with poor defense will not bring much results.

Manchester United need to find a better central defender who has better pace than Linderlof. Then their squad will look more competitive and more balanced between attacking and defensive capability.

yeah It looks like Varane is close to join Man United there have been talks that only €4M is the difference between what United offering for Real Madrid and what they are demanding for him.
It's belleived that Real Madrid still wants €50million for him it's still a big number as they could risk losing him for free next season if a deal didn't fall through, that's why they will be making some compromises as they allowed Man United to contact him personally for his personal terms.

The thing is United is a promising team, if they weren't than Varane wouldn't even consider it, I am not saying Real is not one neither they are always good, they were at UCL semi finals this year and ended the league at second so both of those things are great things, but if you want to leave a team like that, then you do not go to a team that sucks big time, you go to a team that is either already established good, like let's say PSG or City, or you go to a team that shows promises of future wins and United is a team like that, City will eventually become not so great and at those days United may end up being good by that time and with addition of Varane they could be even better.

When you want to leave a team money doesn't even become a problem, if they all just wanted money they would all go to Qatar to play, plus a small difference is alright, not like there is a huge difference, even if Real offers a bit more I would say if he wants to leave he would leave.

Man United need a player in the caliber of Varane to boost their confidence in the backline.The player is a player that will add depth and solidity to Man-u's backline.I don't see the player staying at Real Madrid this season after seeing man united promising the deal. It is also rumoured that other big team.

Varane is good central defender who was given chance to debut in Real Madrid by Mourinho. Many seasons pass and Varane combines with Ramos to build up a powerful defensive wall for Real Madrid. He learns a lot from Ramos too.

Now, Ramos left and Varane might move too. I think Varane is better than Linderlof or Eric Baily so he will a good improvement for Manchester United's defense system.

€50million is an expensive and unacceptable cost, I think so. It depends on Varane, want to play more Real Madrid or want to leave and find other challenges. If he want to leave, Real Madrid will have to sell him in next 2 months.

It is not about confidence but about support for Harry Maguire. Maguire is too slow and he need a partner who can mutually support him to fight against speedy attacking players from opponents. Varane is good enough to support Maguire.

According to Transfermarkt, there is a 68% probability for Varane to be signed by Manchester Utd. Real Madrid should reach an agreement with them if they are not able to extend his contract. Otherwise, he's going to be free agent in one year and Real Madrid will be in a big loss. But it looks like Varane really wants to go to Manchester Utd now so I believe this deal will be done soon.

ManU got Real Madrid permission lately to negotiate with Varane. The player himself is desperate to leave los blancos which risks to see him leaving next season for free. 60m or 0m after 1 year? I think it is a matter of time only. I read also that Chelsea is interested on him but I don't think he is willing to go there, at least I didn't read anything about Chelsea previously.

A good defense win you trophies.
Attacks win matches.
As once said by the best coach in the world Sir Alex Ferguson.
Manchester United should get a Defender with pace and they'll win the League this season.

60m GBP for a defender with just one year left in his contract?  What a crazy transfer market still.  I mean for a good striker, sure...  But for a defender?  I thought everything would cool down after covid.  Player agents must be making bank these days.  Lol.

Is he even highly rated at Real?

They still need a better midfield & a top class striker. Man City or Liverpool will win the title unless Chelsea sign Haaland & then they could compete too.

I see that Manchester United have followed in the footsteps of Manchester City this season and are trying to strengthen the defensive line well. This is the right decision, as the best attack with poor defense will not bring much results.

United have been spending good sums of money on defenders in the last couple of seasons, it didn't just start now, the defenders prolly didn't live up to the expectations set for them, but United haven't been quiet in signing defenders. Having said that, Varane was good quite a couple of seasons ago, but he looks more prone to mistakes of late, I've seen him make a couple of big mistakes that have cost Real, that could be a sign of a player that's lacking in confidence, if United sign him, then I hope he rebuilds his confidence if he is to be the rock they need in central defense.

[Luzin]

Maybe Varane's slick form this season has made his price very high. He was able to play well with Ramos. I think this is also a way of preventing him from leaving, because we know Ramos is gone. If he leaves Madrid will look fragile defensively.
But why are United hunting for defenders? Don't they have a lot of centre-backs?

Real Madrid should buy at least one experienced defender this season. Benzema and Modrich are for striker and midfield. Both are very experienced players. Ramos' replacement in defense is very urgently needed by Real Madrid. A young and talented defender should be included in the Real Madrid team.

Definitely, won't be a bad idea if they can take Harry Kane from Spurs.
I don't see Manchester United selling Paul Pogba,very vital player in the Manchester United team.
Halland ain't going nowhere from my research,Timo Werner needs to step up he's game.
Trust me he'll do this season.

Pau Torres will be a better replacement for Sergio Ramos.
He has got experience in La Liga as well is a Spanish player.

Maybe Manchester Utd really desperately need a defender like him, I don't know. Otherwise, it would be much more logical for them to wait for one more year to be able to sign him for free.

And it looks like Manchester Utd have agreed personal terms with Varane already. It's a matter of time that the transfer becomes official.

I think Real Madrid have enough defenders at the moment to replace Ramos. See the full Madrid squad here. In football there may be a habit that we often see, which is when the best player leaves, the team has to find a 10/10 substitute. I don't know if it should be, but a lot of clubs have done it. Ramos has left and he has become a living legend for Madrid, while many other defenders are still available. Does Madrid need to find a replacement?

By the way, the EPL will be back in a month. I hope all the match held for the 2021/2022 season are attended by supporters of each team like at EURO 2020 yesterday. This gives more passion for football and the playing team will get direct support again from the fans, will the stadium be refilled for the 2021/2022 EPL season?

68% is not as high as people may imagine. I have seen Ramos going to qatar with 61% chance at the start of the off-season, dude ended up in PSG which is a team trying to get UCL this year, think of the difference, from having 61% chance to go to Qatar and ending your career there to playing for a team who wants to win UCL, that is how much transfermarkt can get wrong.

I believe that there is a good chance Varane will leave Real madrid either this year or next year that is for sure there is zero doubt in my mind, there is no turning after this point, however I also think that there is a chance we could end up seeing Real Madrid keeping him for one year and just sending him for free, why do that? Because they may believe that they could change his decision and take the risk, maybe they will convince him to sign another contract? I doubt that, but they may try it out.

Varane is eager to leave Real Madrid and Manchester United is currently the only team in contact with him and they are negotiating with Madrid over him that's why it says 68% of him joining because there is no other major parties want to join and try to sign him.
And it's belleived that personal terms have been reached so .
It is will only be a matter of the transfer fee that Real Madrid will be accepting to let him go, they already lost Ramos and now they are not going to let him off easily so if they do not like the offer they are not going to accept it.

Crystal Palace agree deal to sign Chelsea defender, Marc Guehi. The 21 years old player was sent on a loan transfer to swansea in August 2020, and he played in Swansea last  season. He however attracted the attention of Crystal Palace with his great performance at swansea. He will be opportuned to play in the premier league next season.
