Welcome to the weekend!
But even at this time, the transfer news never stops in January.
Manchester United have joined long-term suitors Chelsea in the battle to sign Declan Rice of West Ham, according to an ESPN report.
After a report in England earlier this month, reputable Italian outlet Corriere dello Sport now state that Liverpool boss JĂŒrgen Klopp is keen on a move for Udinese playmaker Rodrigo De Paul.
Speaking at his press conference on Friday, Frank Lampard admitted he does want Chelsea signings this month â but players will have to leave to facilitate it.
One of those players could be Fikayo Tomori, who the Guardian state is wanted by Milan on loan but the Rossoneri will insist on a purchase option being included in any deal.
Goal claim that with Bayern Munich readying themselves to lose David Alaba to Real Madrid, they will discuss a deal to bring Eder MilitĂŁo in the other direction as a replacement.
And he isnât the only defender who may exit Los Blancos, with Marca claiming that Fiorentina have expressed an interest in Alvaro Odriozola.
Real Madridâs interest in Kylian MbappĂ© is natural. But it seems that ASâ claim that theyâll axe SIX players this summer to bring him in is a little outlandish.
That same outlet also suggest that AtlĂ©tico want Arsenalâs Alexandre Lacazette this month â despite just signing his compatriot Moussa DembĂ©lĂ© from Lyon.
Speaking of the Gunners, after reputable reports earlier this week to the contrary, it may be best to ignore a German claim that Mesut Ăzil is not willing to give up any of his Arsenal salary in order to join Fenerbahçe this month.
Despite the growing reports linking Christian Eriksen with a shock Spurs return, his âŹ7.5 million annual salary remains a huge stumbling block to that happening.
Portland Timbers owner Merritt Paulson is sick of being amusing and emoji-heavy in dealing with transfer rumours.
So he had this to say on the potential arrival of Radamel Falcao âŠ
Impressive Torino midfielder Soualiho Meite was rewarded for his impressive season by sealing a move to Milan.
After two-and-a-half years at Crystal Palace, Max Meyer left the club upon being released.
