January transfer news & rumours: Arsenal line up Rugani
PSG WILL SELL CAVANI TO CLEAR WAY FOR SANCHEZ
PSG are preparing a £25 million January bid to bring in Arsenal attacker Alexis Sanchez, according to Express Sport.
The report adds Sanchez wants a move to Manchester City, who are also expected to bid in January, but that PSG are hopeful a move can be done and will sell Edinson Cavani to make room.
Sanchez, who is out of contract at the end of the season, is a potentially interesting figure for both PSG and Manchester City because he is not cup-tied in the Champions League.
BARCELONA CLOSE ON COUTINHO DEAL
Barcelona are nearing the completion of a deal to bring Liverpool star Philippe Coutinho to the Camp Nou, according to Sport.
The report says a contract of €12 million per year with the Brazilian has already been agreed, and that unlike the summer, Liverpool have set a fee of €150m for the player.
Barcelona still need to agree with Liverpool on a potential payment installment plan, however, in order for the deal to come to fruition.
