  • Slot okays exit? Wantaway winger in 'negotiations' for transfer in January

    Napoli have reportedly opened negotiations with Liverpool and Federico Chiesa's agent in order to secure a six-month loan for the winger in the January transfer window.

    Arne Slot's forwards will relish the opportunity to add to their tally on Sunday afternoon against Manchester United at Anfield, with the trio of Luis Diaz, Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah all in fine form.

    Diaz and Gakpo have scored 12 and 11 goals in all competitions respectively, while Salah has astonishingly scored 17 goals and produced 13 assists in just 18 league appearances this campaign.

    Diogo Jota and Darwin Nunez have also contributed positively to the Reds' title charge, though the former has been beset by injury issues and the latter has at times struggled for consistency.

    Has Slot found his Salah replacement? Reds eyeing former Premier League winger

    Liverpool have reportedly identified Bayern Munich's Leroy Sane as Mohamed Salah's replacement after the Egyptian confirmed this would be his last season at Anfield as things stand.

    Salah has arguably been the best player in the Premier League this season considering he has scored 17 times and produced 13 assists in the top flight, more than any other player in both categories.

    His contributions have helped fire his side to first place in the league, and with a game against Manchester United to come on Sunday afternoon, the winger will be confident of adding to his tallies against Ruben Amorim's struggling Red Devils.

    However, boss Arne Slot will no doubt be concerned that his talisman has publicly aired his frustration at the pace of contract negotiations, suggesting that he is currently more likely to leave the club for free in the summer rather than renew terms.

    'Incoming signing' expected to attend Wolves, Forest Premier League clash

    Wolverhampton Wanderers may reportedly be able to unveil Emmanuel Agbadou as a new signing on Monday night.

    Ever since Yerson Mosquera suffered a season-ending knee injury in September, it has been no secret that Wolves would attempt to acquire at least one new centre-back during the January transfer window.

    New head coach Vitor Pereira has publicly acknowledged that the club are working diligently to try to get a fresh face to Molineux as soon as possible.

    Earlier this week, reports emerged that Wolves were pressing ahead with the acquisition of Reims defender Agbadou after his impressive performances in Ligue 1.

    Will he stay? Man United, Bayern-linked Araujo addresses Barca future

    Barcelona centre-back Ronald Araujo has said that he is "talking with the club" about a new contract but refused to offer any guarantees when it comes to his long-term future at Camp Nou.

    The Uruguay international made his first appearance of the 2024-25 campaign against Barbastro on Saturday evening, helping his side progress to the last-16 stage of the Copa del Rey courtesy of a 4-0 success.

    Araujo missed the opening months of the season due to a hamstring injury, which required an operation, but he has been back on the bench for their last two La Liga games against Leganes and Atletico Madrid.

    There remains huge uncertainty when it comes to the South American's future, with his contract due to expire in June 2026, and Manchester United and Bayern Munich are believed to be among his admirers.

    Osimhen 'makes feelings clear' on Man United move with Red Devils 'putting plan in place'

    Napoli forward Victor Osimhen is reportedly determined to secure a move to Manchester United before the January transfer window closes for business, with the Red Devils said to be exploring a move.

    The 26-year-old joined Galatasaray on loan from Napoli last summer, and he has represented the Turkish giants on 16 occasions, scoring 13 goals and registering five assists in the process.

    Osimhen is due to finish the season with the Istanbul club, but there have recently been claims that the Nigeria international could be involved in a sensational swap deal with Marcus Rashford, which would see the Englishman head to Napoli.

    According to Business Day, the striker has made it clear that he wants to move to Old Trafford, and it is understood that 'preliminary moves' have taken place with a view to a deal going through this month.

    January transfer window: Latest news and rumours including Godfrey to Ipswich

    Ipswich Town are reportedly on the verge of signing central defender Ben Godfrey on loan from Atalanta BC.

    The 26-year-old only arrived at Atalanta from Everton last summer, but he has found it difficult to secure action for the Italian club during the 2024-25 campaign, only making five appearances in all competitions.

    There has been a host of speculation surrounding the defender's future in recent weeks, and according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, an agreement has now been reached between Ipswich and Atalanta.

    Romano claims that Godfrey will move to the Premier League club on loan for the second half of the 2024-25 campaign.

    Chelsea, Torino to reach compromise over Casadei fee?

    Chelsea reportedly remain keen to reach a financial agreement with Torino regarding the sale of Cesare Casadei.

    The 21-year-old has been provided with 424 minutes spread across six appearances this season, either in the EFL Cup or Conference League.

    However, with the Italy Under-21 international featuring for just 71 minutes of Premier League football since his arrival in 2022, there is an acceptance that parting ways could be the best solution for all concerned.

    Earlier this week, a report emerged suggesting that Torino had made their move to try to negotiate a deal for the former Inter Milan youngster, who is also yet to play a single minute of Serie A action.

    Spurs sign Kinsky! How long is his contract? What shirt number will he wear?

    Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed the permanent transfer of Czech Republic goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky from Slavia Prague in a deal worth a reported £12.5m.

    The 21-year-old becomes the Lilywhites' first signing of the January transfer window, and the club have confirmed that he has signed a six-and-a-half year deal until the summer of 2031.

    Kinsky will take the number 31 shirt at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, which had been vacant since former goalkeeper Luke McGee left in 2017 and was previously sported by Andros Townsend.

    The 2003-born shot-stopper is believed to have travelled to London on Saturday to complete his medical and sign his contract, after Ange Postecoglou's team suffered a 2-1 loss to Newcastle United in the Premier League.

    Italy or North America? Rashford's future 'takes a fresh twist'

    AC Milan are reportedly considering a loan move for Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford.

    The England international is currently out of favour under Red Devils head coach Ruben Amorim and is free to leave Old Trafford during the January transfer window, with a number of clubs linked with his services.

    Rashford is believed to have rejected three lucrative offers from the Saudi Pro League, with the 27-year-old said to be determined to continue his career in European football.

    Paris Saint-Germain, Barcelona and Napoli are among the European clubs to be linked with the Red Devils academy product, but it is understood that Man United have not received a European offer during the winter market.

    Could Man United duo join Juventus during January market?

    Juventus are reportedly lining up a move for Manchester United defender Tyrell Malacia.

    The Netherlands international recently returned from almost 18 months on the sidelines with a severe knee injury, making five appearances of late, including two outings in the Premier League.

    The 25-year-old has struggled to make his mark for the Red Devils, though, and there is uncertainty surrounding his future, with Man United expected to sign at least two new left-sided defenders this year.

    A deal for Cerro Porteno's Diego Leon has allegedly already been agreed, with the 17-year-old viewed as one of the best young talents in South America, while a senior player is also wanted in that area of the field.
