‘Embed Link ShortCode’ tries to emulate the functionality that facebook has when a link is pasted to the input status. 
But it doesn’t happen when you paste a link in the body of a new post (as when you paste a youtube link in the visual view of a post), it’s done using a shortcode. 
The provided link to the shortcode is fetched to get the meta tags, and these meta tags are used to render the new post content. It tries to get an image and put it as 
post default thumbnail, and it uses some meta tags to get title text and to add a quote. The order in the post content is: image, quote and link. 
If you don’t like the HTML render, you can always edit the code to change format or suggest me some changes.
Usage:
1- Create a new post.
2- Add only the shortcode with the link (in HTML mode, not Visual) in the post body. For example:
[embedlink]http://example.com/example[/embedlink]
3- Push ‘Save Draft’.
If all is ok, the post content will be rewritten with the rendered html code. An image may be uploaded to the media library and added as post default thumbnail. 
 If nothing happens, click the preview link and some error message may be displayed. If a blank entry is showed, all is ok, then click Edit and you will see the rendered code. 
 Otherwise, it will be a bug: please, report it adding the URL you used and the plugin version (update to last version before report!).
4- Review the generated code.

Embed Link ShortCode

This plugin adds a shortcode to get a similar functionality that has facebook when a link is pasted to the input status.

WPKube

The plugin restores the <code>Title</code> field (that was removed from WordPress 4.2) in the insert link popup box and adds a new <code>Add rel="nofollow" to link</code> checkbox to it.
Gutengerg (Block Editor) Note: At the moment it’s not possible to add the functionality to Gutenberg, it’s a different system from the classic editor and it does not have a hook/filter which allows adding custom settings. As soon as it becomes possible to add the functionality to Gutenberg we will update the plugin.

Title and Nofollow For Links (Classic Editor)

I just installed this on WP 4.9, and it works like a charm. I ended up adding HTML Class manipulation as well, by coping the code in the JS file that added the title field.

Works Well

works with wp 5.2.1

Helpful tool

The plugin adds a title and a rel="nofollow" checkbox to the insert link popup box. Only for Classic Editor, NOT Block Editor.
