Transfer news: The latest rumours from Man Utd, Chelsea, Arsenal and all the top teams
MOU TO LEAVE MAN UTD FOR PSG
Manchester United are now convinced that Jose Mourinho will leave to manage Paris Saint-Germain, according to The Sun .
While Mourinho's camp have claimed to be committed to the Manchester outfit, the club have their own concerns, believing that the inability to match the output of Manchester City and Pep Guardiola has the former Real Madrid and Chelsea boss ready to move on.
The lure of winning the Champions League with a third team is also thought to be big for Mourinho, and the belief is that he sees his chances of doing so of being
much better with the French outfit.
MAN UTD TRACKING ARTHUR
Manchester United are tracking Gremio midfielder Arthur Melo, according to the Daily Mail.
The 21-year-old has impressed in the Brazilian top-flight and earned a first international call up for October's World Cup qualifiers.
Should United take their interest further, they could face competition from Chelsea, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid for his signature.
MAN UTD MONITORING BARCA'S UMTITI
Jose Mourinho has marked Samuel Umtiti as a January target for Manchester United, according to the Mirror .
The Portuguese reportedly is keen to add to his defensive unit, with Victor Lindelof struggling to establish himself in the United side following his £30 million move from Benfica in the summer.
MOYES TO ADD TWO TO FOUR IN JANUARY
David Moyes is expect to sign at least two players and as many as four in the winter window, reports the EveningStandard .
The Premier League club expect the former Manchester United and Everton boss to get the most out of the squad already on hand, but will back him to add where needed and to replace any players who leave.
ZIDANE MAKES HAZARD NO.1 TARGET
Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane has made Chelsea playmaker Eden Hazard his priority signing for next summer, claims Don Balon .
While Madrid president Florentino Perez is coveting the likes of Tottenham’s Harry Kane and Juventus’s Paulo Dybala, Zidane is happy with having Karim Benzema up front.
Instead, Zidane is concerned by the form of Gareth Bale and has identified Chelsea star Hazard as the ideal replacement for the Wales international.
SHAW TO REJECT FENERBAHCE
Manchester United outcast Luke Shaw will reject the chance to move to Fenerbahce in January, according to a report from the Mirror .
The 22-year-old is not in Jose Mourinho's first-team plans at Old Trafford, having not featured in the Premier League this season, and is said to be available for a loan or permanent transfer in the new year.
REAL MADRID CLOSE IN ON GOALKEEPER
Real Madrid are prepared to offer €20 million to Kepa Arrizabalaga in an attempt to sign the Athletic Bilbao goalkeeper on a Bosman move next summer, says Diario Gol.
The 23-year-old progressed from the Bilbao academy to make his first-team debut last season and has caught the eye of Liga giants Real.
MAN CITY PREP MILINKOVIC-SAVIC BID
Manchester City are ready to make an offer for Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic in the January transfer window, according to Calcio Mercato .
The Serbian has been linked with the likes of Manchester United, Juventus and Real Madrid, but City are aiming to beat their rivals to the punch by signing Milinkovic-Savic in the New Year.
BARCA & MADRID TARGET TO COST AT LEAST €30M
Flamengo will not sell Barcelona and Real Madrid target Lincoln for anything less than €30 million, reports Marca .
Lincoln impressed for Brazil at the recent Under-17 World Cup in India and the striker has now been promoted to Flamengo’s first team.
With Madrid having already agreed to spend €45 million on Lincoln’s fellow teenage forward Vinicius Junior, Flamengo will not allow their own highly-rated youngster to leave on the cheap.
NEWCASTLE TARGET LIVERPOOL STRIKER ON LOAN
Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez wants to sign Liverpool striker Danny Ings on loan in the January transfer window, reports the Evening Chronicle .
Benitez is keen to improve his striking options in the New Year and, aware of the financial constraints at St James’ Park, is lining up a deal for Ings.
MADRID LINE UP MATA BID
Real Madrid are lining up a surprise move for Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata in January, according to the Express .
Mata has been dropped by Jose Mourinho in recent matches and with his contract set to expire after this season, the Red Devils could garner a fee for the 29-year-old in the January window rather than let him depart for nothing in the summer.
Mata developed in Madrid's youth system, and could be tempted by a return to his roots with the Bernabeu club.
OZIL DEMANDS WILSHERE'S NO.10 SHIRT
Mesut Ozil wants Jack Wilshere’s No.10 shirt as part of any new contract he signs to stay at Arsenal, claims The Sun .
Germany international Ozil is out of contract at the end of the season and he has been linked with a move to the likes of Manchester United.
Ozil currently wears the No.11 jersey at the Emirates Stadium, but has his eyes on the No.10 of Wilshere, who is also out of contract next summer.
PSG TO SELL £70M DUO IN JANUARY
Paris Saint-Germain are ready to sell Angel Di Maria and Lucas Moura during the January transfer window in order to raise £70 million, reports Le 10 Sport .
The French giants need to meet UEFA’s Financial Fair Play regulations and are likely to try to bring in some money by offloading fringe players.
Di Maria was a target for Barcelona during the summer, while Brazilian attacker Lucas Moura has been linked with Chelsea.
RONALDO DOESN'T WANT KANE AT MADRID
Cristiano Ronaldo is unwilling to share the limelight at Real Madrid with Tottenham star Harry Kane, according to Sky Sports News pundit Guillem Balague ( via the Daily Star ).
Kane has emerged as a real target for the struggling Merengue after a fine start to the season in the Premier League.
But Ronaldo still has a lot of sway around the Bernabeu, and reportedly would rather continue playing alongside Karim Benzema despite the pair's scoring woes in La Liga so far this campaign.
BARCA PLAN JANUARY CLEAROUT
Barcelona are ready to clerar out a host of first-teamers in the January transfer window, with Arda Turan, Aleix Vidal and Thomas Vermaelen all available for sale, claims Sport .
Coach Ernesto Valverde is keen to streamline his somewhat unwieldy Blaugrana squad ahead of the second half of the season, and it is no surprise to see Arda and Vermaelen, scarcely used so far, on the way out.
Vidal, however, has lost ground at right back as Nelson Semedo has come through to claim the spot alongside Sergi Roberto, and appears to be also surplus to requirements at Camp Nou.
DE LIGT TOPS BARCA WISHLIST
Barcelona have identified 18-year-old Ajax defender Matthijs de Ligt as their top defensive target for next summer's transfer window, according to Mundo Deportivo .
The report claims that the Blaugrana feel the young Dutchman will fit the club's style of play and be a sound investment for the future.
Palmeiras man Yerry Mina, 23, is also being considered by the Liga table toppers.
MOU TOLD TO SELL BEFORE BUYING
Jose Mourinho has been told that he must first offload unwanted players before he can buy new ones at Manchester United, the BBC reports.
The Old Trafford club's wage bill has risen by 13.5% in their most recent published financial results and the board want to bring down costs before sanctioning any new signings.
The report suggests Luke Shaw, who joined the Red Devils for £27 million in 2014, could be the first player shown the door.
EVERTON WANT SIMEONE
Everton owner Farhad Moshiri wants to appoint Diego Simeone as the club's next manager, according to Sky Sports .
The ambitious move would see Simeone leave Atletico Madrid, with the Liga club currently fourth in the Spanish table and on the brink of elimination from the Champions League.
Other, perhaps more realistic targets include Watford boss Marco Silva and former England manager Sam Allardyce, while David Unsworth, who is currently in charge on a temporary basis, is also an option.
BAYERN LINE UP DRAXLER DEAL
Bayern Munich want to sign Paris Saint-Germain attacker Julian Draxler at the end of the season to replace Franck Ribery, according to France Football .
Ribery is out of contract next summer and Bayern have yet to make a decision on whether to hand the French winger a new deal.
If Ribery does leave, then Bayern want to bring former Wolfsburg star Draxler back to the Bundesliga, with a January deal ruled out due to his ineligibility for the Champions League.
MAN UTD WON'T RECALL PEREIRA
Valencia are confident Andreas Pereira will not be recalled in January by Manchester United, reports Superdeporte .
United have the option to cut Pereira’s season-long loan short in the New Year, but the winger is now expected to see out the campaign at Valencia after impressing during his time in La Liga.
LIVERPOOL FORWARD SET TO STAY IN MLS
Real Salt Lake want to sign Liverpool forward Brooks Lennon on a permanent basis, according to
The 20-year-old is out of contract at Liverpool next summer and he has spent the 2017 MLS season on loan at Real Salt Lake.
