News LIVE of Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea near
on targets as Sancho nears Man Utd exit
This month, Arsenal and Chelsea are anticipated
to be two of the brigades trying to bring in at least one player each, with
Ivan Toney a name on both clubs’ wishlists.
That might depend on deals though,
while Tottenham and Liverpool could look to bring in mounts to deal with the
likes of Son Heung- min and Mohamed Salah being absent atmid-season
transnational events. Spurs are chasing Genoa’s Radu Dragusin to ameliorate
their defence, while Chelsea eye Napoli striker Victor Osimhen.
The January transfer window can be a strange
beast on occasions, slow to start but frenzied at the end of the month as
brigades try to fix excrescencies or add depth in a compressed timeframe – and
frequently with clubs who do n’t want to deal.
That can affect in exaggerated freights or
extremely late deals being done, but the rumours themselves start beforehand
and simply keep going.
Manchester United are in the business of
unpacking players with castaway Jadon Sancho on the point of a return to
Borussia Dortmund. There's also interest in Hannibal Mejbri and Facundo
Pellistri who could leave on loan this month.
