5 Transfers That Could Still Shake The Footballing World This Summer

In what has been a pretty surprising transfer window, many clubs have secured their positions by claiming services of top tier footballers.

The likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Alisson Becker, Riyad Mahrez, and Shaqiri have made their transitions and provided enough depth to their squads to challenge for their respective campaigns.

While the transfer window is scheduled to be wrapped up soon, there are still many teams hoping to seize one final player to be mentally prepared for the season.

Clubs like Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Chelsea have had a hard time this transfer window, with most of their prolific performers wanting to leave.

Considering the transfer window is not done yet, there are still a couple of options left that could shake the entire footballing world, and provide the interested teams with some legitimate backup.

So, without further ado, let's dive deep and predict the top 5 transfers that could shake the footballing world this summer.

#1 Nabil Fekir to Liverpool F.C.

Lyon's top guy has been on Liverpool's radar since an year now

A transfer that was almost done, Fekir agreed to personal terms and all the formalities that could have sealed the deal for both parties had been completed.

However, Nabil Fekir's deal took an unfortunate turn when the player had an issue with his medical. Since Liverpool were keen on getting the French aboard, the club renegotiated the original deal, but Lyon backed out.

Considering how influential he has been for Lyon, the player can easily fit in Klopp's talented squad, and change the landscape of football at Anfield. While the attacking midfielder left for the World Cup, the Liverpool fans have never stayed quite about the issue, with many fans still continuing to coerce the club into signing Fekir.

Jurgen Klopp also recently stated his intention on reacting if a deal could be restructured which only justifies that this could still happen.

If Nabil Fekir, the man who has made more headlines than any other player this summer, indeed makes the transition, then it could definitely catapult Liverpool into legitimate title contenders.

#2 Luka Modric to Inter Milan

The — Is he the best midfielder in the world?

Perhaps the most talented midfielder on the planet who made an entire nation dream in hope of forging an impossible dream, Luka Modric is the kind of player every team needs.

However, despite losing the World Cup Final, the Croatian captain is in the news again, and this time, there is a reported interest from Italy.

Florentino Perez has openly said that Modric will be sold only if a club pays 750 million Euros, but it is not hard to imagine that Modric could seek a new challenge.

Ronaldo's absence from the club will certainly hinder the squad, and if the Croatian also turns his attention to Italy, then Madrid could be in serious trouble heading into the next season.

With Barcelona already looking to dominate the Spanish League, Perez would definitely expect Modric to stay.

However, if there's a momentous time for Modric to leave Madrid and pursue further objectives, it is now.

#3 Yerry Mina to Manchester United

Enter captio — He is on Manchester's radar for a while now

With Manchester United suffering a center-back headache, Jose Mourinho could be looking to seal a decisive deal by signing Yerry Mina from Barcelona.

The £30 million rated Colombian defender was quite impressive for his nation in the World Cup campaign, and could provide a real depth to United's defensive line-up.

Considering that Harry Maguire's deal has drowned, Mourinho's top target of bringing in a defender could be fulfilled by bringing in Mina.

Defenders that could attack from set-pieces have been missing from United's side, and with the fans sharing conflicting opinions on Mourinho's managerial skills, it could certainly put him under pressure to bring in a quality defender.

Since clubs like Liverpool, Manchester City, and Chelsea already looking like real title contenders this season, the Colombian defender could give United some much-needed options at the back.

#4 Paul Pogba to Barcelona

Manchester United's sensation Paul Pogba has been the debate of the summer, with the World Cup winner silencing a lot of his critics by displaying some quality football.

However, Pogba's time in EPL could be up, with the Frenchman rumored to be having talks with Barcelona and Juventus.

Considering how pivotal he can be in the midfield, Pogba's absence will definitely create a void in Manchester United that would be difficult to fill this summer.

With players like Anthony Martial also doubtful of their future, Pogba leaving seems nothing but confirmed with many reports from Spain stating an agreement with Barcelona is done.

If the speculations are indeed true, and if the personal terms have been agreed, then this could certainly catapult Barcelona into another stratosphere of dominance this summer.

The transfer window is nearing its closure, and the way things are panning out, it seems likely that United will be on the receiving end of many disappointments.

#5 Kovacic to Chelsea / A.C. Milan

After Ronaldo's unfortunate departure from Real Madrid, other players like Luka Modric and Mateo Kovacic are also considering an exit from the club.

Kovacic has been rumored to move ahead from Madrid, with the player already turning down a decisive deal from Manchester United.

A player of Kovacic's caliber does deserve a regular spot in the team, and with Hazard continuing to be on Madrid's hit-list, a deal could be still agreed. Now, the Croatian is on A.C. Milan and Chelsea's radar, with both clubs hoping to claim the talented player's services after having a dull season in Spain.

With A.C. Milan bringing Higuain back to the squad, the Italian side could be looking to bolster their squad by bringing some valuable players, and Kovacic could be the one for them.
