Transfer News LIVE
With the midpoint of the transfer window approaching, this January window is hot with big-name transfers set to be in the pipeline for clubs looking to finalize mid-month transfers. Here are the most exciting developments and rumors from the world of football.
Arsenal's Chase for Barcelona's Araujo
Arsenal have been linked with a move for Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo, who is reportedly open to leaving the Spanish giants. The Gunners are keen to strengthen their backline, and Araujo could well be one of the main targets this month. The possible exit of the center-back from Camp Nou could set the stage for an exciting transfer saga this month, with Arsenal competing against other European powerhouses for his signature.
Chelsea Submits Bid for Winger Hernandez
Chelsea are still working hard to build up their squad and have targeted reinforcement in attack as a priority. Chelsea have moved for Yeremay Hernandez, the winger currently making waves across Europe. It is reported that Chelsea have already placed a bid and, with the financial might they boast, seem well-placed to sign the 20-year-old. Hernandez could be an exciting addition to Chelsea's forward line if a deal is complete.
Manchester United Make £42M Decision on Garnacho
Setting an asking price for Alejandro Garnacho, Manchester United has tagged £42 million as a price tag against his name. However, the young attacker has been wanted by several top clubs, with Manchester United pretty sure of retaining the star asset within their ranks. Garnacho does have a brighter future ahead of him, but he could have a pivotal role to play in the Red Devils' plan provided he stays on at Old Trafford.
Kolo Muani’s Loan Move: Tottenham vs. Manchester United
Randal Kolo Muani is reportedly set to leave PSG on loan this January, a move that sees both Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United reportedly keen on landing the striker. He has struggled to break into the regular first-team sheets at PSG, and a loan move could give the French international his perfect chance to regain form. Juventus has joined the race, too, and is reported to be leading the Premier League clubs for his services.
Barcelona and Arsenal in the Mix over Rashford's Future
In a surprising turn of events, Barcelona have reportedly joined Arsenal in the pursuit of Manchester United's Marcus Rashford. While he has been one of the mainstays for the Red Devils, Rashford's future at Old Trafford remains up in the air with both Barcelona and Arsenal keen on acquiring the services of the English forward. This definitely leaves United fans sweating since his exit would dent their attacking options in the second half of the season.
PSG Target Kvaratskhelia's £70M Move
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has confirmed his desire to leave Napoli, and Paris Saint-Germain is reportedly in pole position to secure his signature. The winger's £70 million price tag hasn't deterred PSG, who are keen to strengthen their attacking options. Napoli is already exploring replacements, with the exciting young talent Alejandro Garnacho reportedly on their radar.
Arsenal and Chelsea in Duran Battle
Both Arsenal and Chelsea have been linked with Colombian striker Jhon Duran, as both teams continue their tussle for the youngster's signature. The 21-year-old has been promising in recent seasons and may well be the answer to instant fire up front for whoever lands him in England. Both teams do need firepower upfront, so this is one battle that might get interesting towards the close of the window.
Manchester City Set to Complete £80M Double Deal
Manchester City are reportedly closing in on an £80 million double deal for Abdukodir Khusanov and Omar Marmoush. Both players could be the missing pieces in City's already formidable squad, offering fresh options in both midfield and attack. If the deal goes through, it will add further depth to Pep Guardiola's star-studded lineup.
