The January transfer window is now in full flow, with several top Premier League clubs, including Manchester City, Arsenal, and Manchester United, headlining the news. The window is well underway, and a number of the key moves are beginning to take shape, with one or two shocks expected to come through before the deadline.
Manchester City: Major Transfer Shakes Ahead
Manchester City have perhaps been the busiest side in the English top-flight this month with Pep Guardiola's charge trying to tighten up some of the jolts at the back amid mid-season struggles; fresh from the stunning 8-0 romp against Salford City, another bomb is thrown, Kyle Walker wanting out.
The veteran defender has his sights reportedly set on a move abroad, and this has left the fans in suspense. Meanwhile, the pursuit of new signings is also gaining momentum for City. The club is edging closer to securing the capture of Lille's talented full-back Abdukodir Khusanov and Eintracht Frankfurt's forward Omar Marmoush. Some of the other moves being instigated by City:.
Arsenal's £67 Million Bid Imminent
Arsenal are set to bolster an already star-studded squad with a £67 million bid. While nothing has been disclosed, the Gunners are tipped to unveil a major signing. In great form heading into 2025, the inclusion of new stars may just be exactly what the team needs to seal their charge for the Premier League title.
Despite the growing interest, Arsenal have been cautious in their approach, targeting players that fit their playing style and long-term goals. While concrete details remain scarce, the London club's transfer activity is something to watch closely.
Manchester United: Rashford in Hot Demand
The same cannot be said about Marcus Rashford's situation at Manchester United, with a probable exit away from Old Trafford, the English attacker is wanted by several continental teams. With a probable transfer to Italy on the cards, Napoli has come out to be the frontrunners to capture his services and he could be in line to replace Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who is all set to sign for Paris Saint-Germain.
United want £70 million for Rashford, who has spoken about wanting a fresh challenge. However, former Liverpool and Portsmouth star Glen Johnson believes a move abroad is the "end" of his career, not something which would elevate it. That is because he feels that taking himself out of the Premier League may affect how people view him, despite his undoubted ability.
Aston Villa Near to Signing Tidiam Gomis
Aston Villa has also been busy in the transfer market, with the Belgian journalist Sacha Tavolieri claiming the deal of Tidiam Gomis is close. The 18-year-old forward will sign a five-year contract with Villa but is to stay at his current club Caen for the rest of the season.
Villa manager Unai Emery is keen to secure long-term talents, and Gomis' signing could prove to be an exciting addition to the club's future ambitions.
Other Transfer Rumours
Other clubs, like Chelsea and Liverpool, are active in the market, too, while a host of targets have been scouted with moves not yet announced. Many top-flight clubs are preparing for the next stage of the window as they look to bolster their squads ahead of the final deadline.
