Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United are among those to watch in the finals days of the January transfer window as clubs in the Premier League and across the world look to wrap up deals before the deadline, while Chelsea’s late interest in Alejandro Garnacho could unlock a series of moves.
The Gunners are desperate to sign a striker and though a move for RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko looks unlikely this month Mikel Arteta’s side are still pursuing the forward. Wolves’ Matheus Cunha is seen as an alternative should they not manage to secure Sesko, while Arsenal lead the race for Norwegian starlet Sverre Nypan.
Manchester United, meanwhile, are closing in on a deal with Lecce for defender Patrick Dorgu but the club need to sell to buy, with Garnacho possibly on the way out and Antony offloaded on loan to Real Betis. Marcus Rashford is also searching for a move away from Old Trafford, but only one club looks like a possible option this January.
Follow all the latest news, rumours and deals below, plus analysis on the done deals and where new signings will fit into the starting line-ups:

Marcus Rashford left with just one transfer option to end Manchester United stalemate

Manchester United and Marcus Rashford are facing up to a period where one of their best-paid stars is in the cold for months, as a suitable move has yet to present itself and only Juventus looks like a possible option this January.
The club have fielded a number of informal enquiries for the forward since he announced he was open to leaving in December, but Rashford wants to ensure any move is one that fits his preferences.
That involves the chance to compete for trophies this season, while also at a level high enough to persuade England manager Thomas Tuchel that he should be brought back into the international fold.
'Best for everyone' if Marcus Rashford leaves Manchester United, says Rio Ferdinand

Rio Ferdinand believes it would be “best for everybody” if Marcus Rashford leaves Manchester United.
The England international has not played for his hometown club since 12 December and appears to be out in the cold under Ruben Amorim.
He watched United’s injury-time Europa League win over Rangers from the stands on Thursday night (23 January) as his exile continued.
Ferdinand told TNT Sport: “I think that is an indication of what the club wants to happen. I think they want to get him out
“I think he needs to go a new club, a new situation, a new environment.”

Marcus Rashford should be “banished” from the Manchester United dressing room, Paul Scholes has said in a frank assessment of the forward’s future at the club, adding: “The sooner he’s gone, the better.”
Rashford has not featured in any of United’s last 11 matches in all competitions, with boss Ruben Amorim leaving the 27-year-old out of the matchday squad on all but one occasion.

5. Evan Ferguson to West Ham
Brighton striker Evan Ferguson is likely to leave the Seagulls before the deadline and there are no shortage of Premier League clubs interested in singing the Republic of Ireland star on loan. It wasn’t too long ago that Ferguson was being talked about as Brighton’s next big-money sale, but the 20-year-old has had a difficult year of injuries and needs a run of games to get his form back.
West Ham have been strongly linked, with new boss Graham Potter knowing Ferguson from his days at the Amex. The Hammers are in need of a striker, too, but they may face competition from Everton and Bournemouth. There could be big moves in the striker market before Monday’s deadline, with West Ham also having a £57m bid turned down for Aston Villa’s Jhon Duran, while Brentford have rejected a £22m offer from Nottingham Forest for Yoane Wissa.

4. Tyler Dibling to Tottenham
Ange Postecoglou has said Tottenham’s injury-hit squad needs “help” in the transfer market, and time is running out to bring in new recruits. So far, only goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky has been signed, and Spurs surely need much more if they are to challenge in the cup competitions this season and save Postecoglou's job. With Tottenham 15th in the table, a relegation battle cannot be ruled out, either.
Southampton winger Tyler Dibling, 18, has been linked but the Saints would not consider any offer under £55m for the winger this month, even as the club circles towards an immediate return to the Championship. Dibling has been a bright spark in Southampton’s difficult season and the electric right-winger would fit the profile of signing Tottenham have targeted recently.
There is an argument they need much more, however, but Spurs have found the market difficult. But the pressure on Daniel Levy will only grow if Tottenham fail to make any moves.

3. Matheus Cunha to Arsenal
Arsenal are desperate for attacking reinforcements but a move for one of their top targets looks unlikely this month. Benjamin Sesko will remain at RB Leipzig, who face a battle to qualify for the Champions League this season, while Viktor Gyokeres is set to stay put at Sporting until the summer. Arsenal will have to revisit interest in Athletic and Spain winger Nico Williams at the end of the season, too.
Patience around the Emirates is wearing thin, however, with Arsenal facing a make-or-break season as they look to challenge Liverpool for the Premier League title. One player who could be available this month is the Wolves striker Matheus Cunha. One of the standout forwards in the Premier League, despite Wolves’ position in the relegation zone, the Brazilian is in high-demand this month and has not signed a new contract at Molineux despite an offer being on the table.
Wolves are determined to keep Cunha at the club and the 25-year-old, who has scored 10 goals and registered four assists, could be the difference to keeping them up, and they are not desperate to sell either having made £90 through the sales of Pedro Neto and Max Kilman last summer. But Arsenal are monitoring the situation after Cunha was left upset by criticism from his own manager, Vitor Pereira, following defeat to Chelsea.
Meanwhile, the Gunners are leading the race to sign Norway Under-21 international Sverre Nypan, in a deal that could be completed this week. Oleksandr Zinchenko may also be on the move, with Borussia Dortmund linked to a £20m deal.

2. Alejandro Garnacho to Chelsea
This would be a deeply unpopular move around Old Trafford, but United need to sell the Argentina international for PSR reasons. A series of failed transfers, such as the expensive, disastrous purchase of Antony, have left United vulnerable in the market and Chelsea are looking to be opportunistic by targeting Alejandro Garnacho. The 20-year-old is classed as a homegrown player as he came through the United academy and can therefore be sold as “pure profit” under PSR.
Napoli have also been interested in Garnacho but Chelsea appear to be closer to meeting United’s £60m valuation for the winger. Enzo Maresca has not ruled out a move for Garnacho but the Blues may need to off-load other players first. Christopher Nkunku has been linked with a return to the Bundesliga with Bayern Munich and Joao Felix, who has struggled for minutes in the Premier League, could be available on loan.
While Chelsea have also held talks with Bayern Munich over winger Mathys Tel, Garnacho would be their preference and they can test the resolve of their Premier League rivals by waiting until closer to the deadline. Renato Veiga looks set to depart Stamford Bridge and join Juventus on a six-month loan, while Ben Chilwell surely has to move on too to get his career back on track.

1. Marcus Rashford to… anywhere
If Marcus Rashford thought he could get back into Manchester United’s team under Ruben Amorim, his new manager clearly thinks otherwise. Rashford’s future at United appears to be over after Amorim states that he would prefer to select his 63-year-old goalkeeping coach Jorge Vital on the bench than Rashford.
The former England international desperately needs a move to revitalise his career, and it’s getting to the point where the 27-year-old should not be ruling out any options. AC Milan, Juventus, Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund have all been linked at points this month, but interest has cooled with Rashford’s salary proving to be a stumbling block in talks - even if he is only up for a loan.
So where does Rashford end up? A compromise has to be made and United may end up paying a significant part of Rashford’s £300,000 weekly wage. Of the big European clubs, it’s Juventus and Barcelona who look more likely. They will use the deadline and Rashford’s exile as leverage to get United to pay a greater share of his salary. United, meanwhile, are hoping to complete the signing of left back Patrick Dorgu in the first signing of the Amorim era.

Christensen has been injured for much of the season, meaning he has only made one league appearance. While the 28-year-old is intent on reclaiming his place, Barca's financial situation has meant clubs are willing to test whether a deal is possible.

“Last year he didn’t play as much but we all saw his quality and it was key to keep his head down and work his socks off," Van Dijk said.
“This year he has got the trust and the confidence. He can show his quality week in, week out and every few days. I am very impressed with him. Not only on the pitch but outside the pitch as well.
“He is still a young boy but he is growing into a man. The way you approach the game on and off the pitch is very key to be a world-class player.
“The consistency he is showing, he is a world-class player and he can only get better as well. He learns from difficult moments in games. He has been almost flawless this season. I am proud of him. He is vital for us.”

The Evening Standard report that Arsenal are expected to learn whether they have secured the services of Norwegian teenager Sverre Nypan this week.
The teenager’s father, Arne Nypan, has confirmed after talks were held with interested clubs that a decision is expected on his son’s future before the transfer window closes on Monday.
“It is an advantage to put it behind us and make a decision before the window closes,” he told Nettavisen in Norway.
“They are big and professional clubs [interested in Nypan], but what impresses me is how thoroughly nice people are who have good values.
“They are really concerned about Sverre, which we were careful about. They value him so highly that he is more than just a piece in a big game.
“It would have been easy if there were some alternatives where some were obviously better than others, but it is difficult. It is at a very high level and will be good anyway.”
Arsenal are one of the big favourites to sign the 18-year-old.

The Citizens are also reportedly looking at a deal for Andrea Cambiaso – who could cost around £67m – as well as midfield targets.

"I mean I really think that has been a factor because if you look at the way European competitions are stacked up, that would be done and dusted by now and people would know if they are in the Champions League or if they are in the Europa League and adjusted their sights.
"Maybe after last night and I've had a close look at the three-page table, thankfully we're on the first so I don't need to go beyond that, but if there is any significant clubs in there and out of the competition, it may make things happen a little bit quicker.
"It's not just about bringing in another body, but yeah, there is still no doubt we need to help these players because we've still got some significant games in the next two or three weeks before we get players back.”
