Transfer: Winter Transfer Thread Part II - BarSALEona

[Juve]

I am cool with where ever he goes as long as he doesn't come back to Juve.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

I feel that Pogba is PSG bound, Mbappé to Real Madrid and Håland to Man City.

That's all that matters... well that and Eden Hazard to the moon.

Pogba to Brighton to play alongside Bissouma? Sounds good to me .

Bissouma to United to play with Pogba and Bruno? Sounds good to me.

Though Eberl still claims to be trying to extend Ginter & Zakaria, he also hasn't closed the door on either one leaving this winter.

Oh I would hate to see him in a United shirt....

 

[DatsyukOwns]

Does anyone know much about Julian Alvarez and his potential?

Apparently, Barca, Inter and Juve are all interested in him.

What’s up with Bissouma’s off the field issues? Does anyone know?

 

[Power Man]

He's certainly not that with the national team. Pogba is limited in zero part of the field.

Pogba is awesome with the NT

Investigation ongoing, currently out on bail.

Currently, under investigation and on prolonged bail I believe. The talk of said issues has died out a bit but I'm guessing they will come back in the coming weeks.

Someone earlier in this thread didn’t accurately represent what Raiola said. This was the very next tweet. Raiola said a whole bunch of nothing in that interview. Covered every base.

How's the nightclub scene in Manchester?

very mobile and high IQ striker, can play as a winger but isn't the most creative dribbler

pretty good at quick passes and finishing his chances

good potencial to be a starter for top clubs, but I don't think he'll be a star

Diogo Jota is a guy I think have a similar impact to what I expect him to have

oh well..

Raiola is talking about Haaland in the press now because he realizes he has no leverage. Maybe also because Haaland has indicated he’s staying and Raiola is upset about losing out on money. We will see.

Being knocked out in group stage in Champions League with Dortmund is definetly a dissapointment for Haaland, that's his favorite tournament.

I'm sure he wants to go ta a club that can make a deep run in the champions league and maybe win it.
Raiola have mentioned: ManCity, Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern München as likely.

 

[Evilo]

Raiola is lying.
But cause Bayern and Barca aren't likely destinations.
PSG has a shot though.
That's how he works though.

Haaland is off to City. Riaola is doing his job keeping all options open and drumming up interest. RM have a shot, but I don't see Perez offering the necessary package nor Haaland wanting to share the spotlight with Mbappe.

City have lots of money and no striker, seems simple to me.

Haaland went to Dortmund over multiple other teams with a bigger spotlight. I don’t think it’s about spotlight for him and more about situation.

If Mbappe goes to Real I see PSG going hard for Haaland.

 

[hatterson]

He also wasn’t near as proven when he moved to Dortmund. He obviously had insane potential and had begun to show it, but it wasn’t guaranteed that he could lead the line for a PSG or City right off.

Now, based on what he’s shown over the last ~2 years, I can’t see him accepting anything less than being the focal point of an attack at a top tier club.

side pass merchant

Bruno Guimarães is much better than him for any club interrested in a midfielder that controls pace and can still make progressive passes.

Raiola’s job is to talk. He can name all these clubs he wants. Many are not feasible. Barcelona and United have uphill battles to make the UCL. If they don’t make it, there’s zero chance for them. Even if they do, I doubt Barcelona could finance a transfer. No chance either of Bayern. We are not selling our best player to Bayern. It’s not like they could afford him either. They don’t spend big on transfers. I don’t know why he’d even name them.

Man City, PSG, and Madrid are all options. I’m not sure where Haaland will play next season. Pep says he can’t afford to purchase Kane. Can he afford Haaland? It seems like he doesn’t think his system needs a high priced CF. I don’t see how Madrid can have Benzema, Mbappe, and Haaland in the same lineup. Two rigid CF’s positionally and a third striker in Mbappe. Could they even afford those two additions and then some defensive players?

PSG is an option purely due to their money, but the player has to actually want to play in that league. I’m not convinced either that if Mbappe leaves ( not a sure thing) that they just replace him with another big name attacker. That team needs more balance. Very hard to run a team successfully with three star attackers.

Raiola stands to lose a profit if Haaland does not transfer. He wants all his clients to switch clubs every summer. He didn’t even say anything too important either in that interview. It was so blown out of proportion by people that would rather see Haaland play elsewhere. I guess Dortmund isn’t as prestigious as seventh place clubs like Barcelona and United.

We will see. No one is going to give us a chance to keep our players. I already know that, but we kept hold of Sancho a season longer than all of them expected.
