Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

Barcelona has agreed to sell this player but de Jong wants to stay in Barcelona. And Barcelona told him that if he wants to stay he will have to take a pay cut but he also does not want to take a pay cut. 

So, this is a weird situation, to be honest. 

The player is going to be  Better Off playing in a new team. But Barcelona is not going to be as strong as they are right now without de Jong. 

Manchester United also does not absolutely need this player right now because they can play other players in that position, like Christian Eriksen. I really believe that if the player really does not want to take a pay cut he should not be forced, but then other players will also not want to take any kind of pay cut as well.

It seems to me that De Jong decided to choose money over playtime. To be honest, he isn't going to get that match playing time at Barcelona. Going to a new club would give him some hope.

Maybe he is looking forward to staying to Barcelona until his contract expires whilst getting full pay as per his current contract.

Clement Lenglet has finally been signed by Tottenham on loan. By this centre-back transfer there are quite a lot alternatives for that position in the team now. But I know that they won't give all of them many chances in the end. Lenglet will need to work hard to win the competition with Romero, Sanchez and Dier to have a place in the lineup regularly. It can be a hard choice for Conte if they all perform satisfyingly. As of now I would only expect a midfielder addition from them maybe.

Tottenham will do better next season because while other team are budgeting on one player, they are going in for several players. Conte is really a tactical coach that knows what he's capable of and how to solves the club problem. Spurs landing Clement Lenglet on loan is one big thing in the club. It's really one big competition for the team as several players will fight to start games. That means they almost have a new set of players in the team, meanwhile Conte is not holding back as he is still looking for potential Players which are available in the market.

Automatically if he refuses a pay cut it means he agrees to leave Barcelona. The issue of De Jong's transfer is getting more and more full of drama because a few days ago it was reported that he wanted to leave and now wants to stay, so the club that wants to sign De Jong is waiting for things that are not certain. I hope that de jong will take the right attitude in his next career because if this continues, the agreement between the two sides will not reach an agreement. And Barcelona will be a bit hampered in this transfer market because there are not enough funds to bring in other players.

In this case it is still confusing and actually I still feel that it is difficult for MU to be able to bring De Jong especially in this case Barcelona are getting funnier in giving clauses and recently there is news that they are ready to sell De Jong with the same clause + salary demands De Jong who is still in arrears there must also be paid by the club that wants to buy this player.

Manchester city centre back, Nathan Aké is expected to leave the team sooner or later. But that probably depends on if Chelsea makes an official bid for Nathan Aké. Although the blues have already reach the conditions for Nathan's personal terms.  Pep Guardiola knows the player have already accept Chelsea bid but his duty now is to look for new centre that will be a perfect replacement for the Dutchman. City smash £40/45m for Nathan, but can Todd Boehly release that amount for the player?

What's the point of asking Manchester United to pay the salary arrears because it will only embarrass them
although they can add it to the market price, let's say the price is $50 million and salary arrears is $5 million
so Barcelona can put up a price of $5.5 million the goal is the same but the method is different  
I believe the main obstacle for Manchester United is the price that has not been agreed upon.

Nathan ake is a quality and well experience defender, he has alot of qualities that can attract many top teams, He has played in many top EPL teams, that shows he has alot of experience. Perhaps, bringing him back to the team will be of a good use, cause I believe he has played in the team before and he will quickly adapt to the team nature of play. Also Nathan will he help strengthen the team defend, cause he's a well concerntrated on the pitch, despite his price, I think the blues really need such a player in their defends.

Wissam Ben Yedder seems like a target for Manchester United according to a rumour came out today. We all have heard about Ronaldo's intention to leave and Manchester United seem willing to listen to offers from now on as well. They will need to bring a solid centre-forward to be able to fill Ronaldo's place as good as possible. Ben Yedder might be one of the good choices too actually. He is a very experienced player and he is really good at finishing too. He scored 25 goals in the Ligue 1 last season.

Not only Manchester United, Wolverhampton are also reportedly interested in bringing Ben Yedder to the Molineux stadium. Ben Yedder is a great striker, he even became a mainstay player at Toulouse, Sevilla and Monaco. Maybe we'll see the finalization of Ben Yedder's transfer soon, whether it's to Manchester United or Wolverhamton. As we know that AS Monaco is a club that really likes money in the transfer window

Honestly I don't think that Ben Yedder's last decision would be to go to Wolves while there is a better option like Manchester United. He would think of this deal seriously in case Ronaldo leaves. Because then he would be the main striker of the team. A striker like Ben Yedder wouldn't like to be a rotation player in the end. Monaco wouldn't make this a big deal too as you said and they would find a new striker thanks to the money they'd get from this transfer as well.

Chelsea who until now have not found a replacement for Christensen and Rudiger, should immediately complete the purchase of Nathan Ake.
Moreover, Nathan Ake at Man City did not get much playing time, so Chelsea should not be too difficult to get Nathan Ake. Instead of expecting
too much from Matthijs de Light, who may be harder for Chelsea to get, because apart from Juventus asking for a very large transfer fee. De Light is
also reportedly more interested in joining Bayern than Chelsea. So Ake who struggles to compete with Ruben Dias and John Stones will be
very interested in playing for Chelsea. I'm also sure Todd Boehly won't mind the transfer fee Man City wants. It looks like Ake's move to Chelsea
will happen in the near future, hopefully it will come true, because Chelsea's need for a defender position is already urgent.

[blackened515]

Manchester United might likely lose Cristiano Ronaldo this summer. The fact his agent telling the team that Ronaldo dealing with family problems is not a good one for the fans and the club. Ronaldo's agent, Jorge's been busy looking for a team which will be fit for his client and a proposal which will sealed the exit of Ronaldo. The GOAT needs to leave after all, he's not even good for a player of his own kind to be featured in Europa League games. It's really a total dissatisfaction for him because it's been long he feature in those low level League.

He started career at Chelsea for quite a long time but this player was a lot loaned by Chelsea to other clubs, Manchester City set a high price for this player because the article still had a long contract left. Nathan Ake probably won't have any trouble adapting because this player will play regularly later this will be a golden opportunity for him too, at this age that is already solid maybe he will show a good performance.

I don't think Ronaldo will join any of the Laliga teams again this season even though he is now in Spain. Rumors about his move have been getting a lot of public attention lately, but neither team has made an official offer for him. Chelsea are reportedly willing to sign him from Manchester United, but I'm not too sure that a transfer will happen.
It's a big loss for Manchester United if they can't keep Ronaldo this season. Ten Hag wants him to stay, of course but Ronaldo has already declared a move. If he goes to Laliga, it might be Atletico Madrid or Sevilla, but who knows.

✂️

It would be better for him to stay at Manchester United than having to play for Sevilla and Atletico, if he wants to move I don't expect him to move to Sevilla or Atlético, because it's no better than Manchester United, although I'm sure he won't leave Old Trafford for the next two seasons.
By the way, Jesse Lingard hasn't found a club until now, so far there are three teams from the premier league interested in him, West Ham United, Everton and Tottenham. So which club suits his style of play better?

The most desirable club among the three which are interested in Jesse Lingard is obviously Tottenham Hotspur. But I really doubt that he will be able to get the playing time that he wants at this club. So the second best option has to be West Ham. The performance of that club is also decent compared to Everton, and he would have a lot of playing time there.

I also believe that Cristiano Ronaldo is not eligible to play for any La Liga team. In my opinion, Chelsea seems to be the closest team to signing Cristiano Ronaldo. Because they need an attacker and Cristiano Ronaldo seems to be a perfect fit for the club as well.

I have said it repeatedly now and I will say it again that Chelsea won’t get Ronaldo, and he’ll drop the transfer request once Manchester United sorts his wage issue. Also Lingard isn’t getting a club yet, because he’s trying to get lots of money for signing up and that’s why clubs are not offering him a contract yet, but if I had to pick a team for him then it would be West Ham as he really excelled out there.

Ronaldo would probably be better off staying at United. that's my thought. Ronaldo's ambition is to want to defend a club that competes in the Champions League. and United is not in for this season.
at least not bad if Ronaldo is still at United. he can help United to get the Europa League trophy. but looking at Ronaldo's attitude lately, he wants to leave United. Regarding his move to Chelsea, I think it was a bit difficult. the only thing that makes that possible, I believe is just a business Chelsea is doing with Ronaldo.

Chelsea have losing two defender Antonio Rüdiger and Andreas Christensen but until several week losing their defender still not find with new defender replace position leaving by Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rüdiger. I think try to get Nathan Ake from Manchester City is not really good thing depending this player not get regular position with Manchester City and Chelsea will spent much money for Nathan Ake. Except with De Ligt from Juventus because he is potential defender but difficulty to buy him because Juventus have losing Giorgio Chiellini not extended contract and will going on to Los Angeles FC.

[udidrone]

Chelsea have losing two defender Antonio Rüdiger and Andreas Christensen but until several week losing their defender still not find with new defender replace position leaving by Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rüdiger.

Rumor has it that Chelsea are trying to get close to Sevilla defender Jules Kunde. But I doubt it because Kounde has a market value of more than €50 million, while chelsea released Rudiger and Christensen to madrid and barca on free transfers.
Doesn't Chelsea still have Emerson? If I'm not mistaken his loan period to lyon ends this season, Emerson can be used now to help chelsea's defense

De Jong future is still a question mark, Manchester United are at the forefront to get him, then suddenly Chelsea comes in the hunt for De Jong and wants to hijack Manchester United hunt, while De Jong wants to stay at Barcelona.
Barcelona current financial crisis forced them to sell one of their best midfielders, not only that, De Jong's departure could reduce the burden on the club expenses to pay player salaries. As is known, De Jong is one of the highest paid players at Barcelona. De Jong seller can be used as capital to spend on other players, there are still several other target players to be brought in, such as Raphinha, Lewandowski, Cesar Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso.

Chelsea could take the opportunity of Barcelona interest in their players to hijack De Jong off Manchester United radar. Chelsea can offer one of its two players, if Barcelona agrees with the offer made by Chelsea, Manchester United will bite their fingers, because De Jong, who has been Manchester United main target, has moved to a rival club.
It is quite interesting to follow De Jong transfer process, whether he will accept Manchester United offer or even join Chelsea which could give him the opportunity to play in the Champions League. Or choose to stay at Barcelona and be willing to cut some of his salary. Only time can answer all these transfer riddles.

It's possible Chelsea could sign Kounde since they didn't lack of financial like Barcelona, I think it's either Kounde or De Ligt that Chelsea will sign for their Back players. There's also a rumor that Chelsea is going to sign Nathan Ake to comeback to their club from Manchester City, but I don't sure Ake will agree since Manchester City is better than Chelsea.

Yep, Emerson is comeback to Chelsea and can play if Thomas Tuchel want.

Emerson is a left back and a back up option for Chilwell if he isn't fully fit at the start of the season or to be used for cups games so Chilwell doesn't get overworked. Both Left back and right back has been secured so when Chelsea talk about defensive players they aren't referring to that position but Central defender that'll replace Rudiger's vod he left and a backup option for Thaigo silver as he's aging and won't be expected to play all games/90mins.

I feel Kounde wasn't Tuchel choice instead it was that of the previous administration as since the departure of Marina & petr cech the whole talk about signing him die down. Instead other defenders talks came into the picture nevertheless, Chelsea would be active in the market to get themselves a better replace for the central defends.

The problem Chelsea have at the moment regarding the transfer is the agreement with the team of the player in question, at the moment De Ligt and Kunde are still struggling especially with the issue of agreement.
De Ligt and Kunde's problems are hampered by their finances, where currently Sevilla charge 80 million euros for Kunde and 100 million for Juventus for De Ligt.
It's definitely a big price if indeed they want to have one of them.
