January transfer window 2021: Who could be on the move?

EVERTON OPEN DIGNE CONTRACT TALKS

The Liverpool Echo reports that Everton have opened talks with Lucas Digne about a new contract at the club and talks are progressing well to tie the left-back down to a long-term deal.

The 27-year-old is half-way through the five-year deal he signed in the summer of 2018 when joining from Barcelona, although has recently faced a spell on the sidelines with injury.

But the new deal would reflect his growing influence at the club, similar to the new five-year deal Micheal Keane was given in August.

WESTBROM TARGET CHOUDHURY

West Bromwich Albion are one of a number of Premier League clubs interested in taking Leicester midfielder Hamza Choudhury on loan this month.

Choudhury has played ten times for Leicester so far this season, but only two of those have come in the Premier League.

Wilfred Ndidi’s return to fitness, together with the form of Nempalys Mendy, has meant Choudhury has found himself third-choice in Leicester’s defensive midfield role. He wasn’t even on the 9-man bench for Sunday’s game at Newcastle.

Nevertheless, with Leicester still fighting in three competitions, Brendan Rodgers has yet to decide whether it’s best to keep the 23-year-old within his squad, or allow him to go elsewhere to gain some valuable match experience.

Fulham look very keen to boost their Premier League survival bid with January move for Newcastle striker Dwight Gayle. Fulham are looking into a January deal for Newcastle striker Dwight Gayle. Scott Parker is targeting reinforcements in attack to boost their survival hopes.

Gayle has six months remaining on his deal and could be made available now. Gayle has just six months left on his current contract but long-standing admirers Fulham are keen to take him this month rather than wait until the summer.

They have discussed trying to persuade Newcastle with an incentivised deal that will involve a small fee now and increase if Gayle, 31, were to help keep Fulham in the Premier League this season.

Alaba’s transfer to Real Madrid seems to have stalled as Bayern Munich defender is demanding higher salary than Sergio Ramos.

The Spanish champions are favourites for for the Austrian’s signature but David Alaba’s wage demands are proving a stumbling block.

Alaba is set to leave Bayern Munich on the expiration of his contract in the summer, and Real Madrid moved ahead of Barcelona in the chase when it was reported that Barca could not match his demands.

The Austrian is keen to take advantage of his free-transfer status, and this is now proving to be a problem for Real as well - despite the player’s preference for a move to Spain.

Manchester City have offered De Bruyne a contract for 5 years but with a salary lower than the current one. One of these reasons is that the club’s intention is to save money for Messi’s deal. That may sound disrespectful to Kevin to some fans. But, there are a couple of things to take into account.

One, First offer is always lower and he may get a better agreement soon. City know how important kdb is for the team.

Another, He’ll be 30 when next season starts. If it’s slightly lower having guaranteed contract until you’re 35 still on big wages isn’t the worst. I imagine most clubs would be trying to get him to sign a 3 year deal.

The 32-year-old has been firmly out of favour under Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta.

Ozil’s time at German national team was also marred by controversy and ended in his exit from the team.

‘I am German when we win, an immigrant when we lose’

I think his above statement was quite profound.

The move to Turkish Club seems to be a good option given the situation at Arsenal and he stands a better chance at reigniting his career in Turkey where he shares family ties.
