Summer Transfer Predictions

One of the most exciting things about professional football is seeing all of the transfers that happen each summer.  It’s cool to see some of the best players trying themselves with a different team or league. Some of these transfers are short loan spells where they are still owned by their original club or full on purchases where they are now the property of a new club.  These are my predictions for which players  think will change clubs next season.

 

Antoine Griezmann Atletico Madrid —> Manchester United

Griezmann has proved himself in the passed few seasons as one of the world’s best strikers.  There is speculation every year that he will move clubs and I think this will be the year he finally moves from La Liga.  He will go to Man United because he himself has said that he would like to play at the same club as his French Partner Paul Pogba as well.

 

Cristiano Ronaldo Real Madrid —> Paris Saint Germain

Roanldo is currently the best player in the world and has just ended his contract with Real Madrid.  He has spent a decade with the club and is starting to get to an age where I downward swing could happen.  I think it would be silly for a team like Paris, who have the money to buy him, not to snatch him up before another club does.

 

Adel Taarabt Genoa —> Queen’s Park Rangers (loan)

A player who is still trying to find his form, Adel Taarabt must move clubs this summer in order to get back to his former self.  He hardly a plays for his current club so I think a loan spell is definitely not out of the question since he is not being used at the moment.  I think he will be loaned out to QPR a club which he flourished at in the past.

 

Kostas Manolas A.S. Roma —> Chelsea F.C.

Monolas has proven to be one of the Calcio A’s greatest defenders this season.  His pace, defending and mental ability on the ball have gotten a lot of clubs talking about him.  I think that after guiding Roma to the type of the table this season he will earn a transfer to Chelsea F.C., a great club who are looking for a rock solid defender.

 

Sergio Aguero Manchester City —> Real Madrid F.C.

This season, Man City have introduced a new young striker to their line-up, Gabriel Jesus.  He has played out of his skin this season and regularly starts over Aguero.  Aguero still has a lot left in him as a striker, so that is why I think he will go to another club.  With Cristiano Ronaldo leaving he will fit nicely in their starting XI.
