Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United are clubs to watch in the finals days of the January transfer window. Erling Haaland has signed a bumper new extension at Manchester City, while it appears that Benjamin Sesko will not be an option for the Gunners as they target a new striker.

Mikel Arteta is also targeting a new midfielder, with Spain midfielder Martin Zubimendi appearing to be set on the Emirates over Anfield or with Man City at the Etihad.

Arne Slot’s Reds continue to negotiate with soon-to-be out-of-contract trio Trent Alexander-Arnold, Mohamed Salah and Virgil Van Dijk, with the right-back linked with a possible free transfer to Real Madrid.

While Manchester United are looking to sell Marcus Rashford, Kyle Walker could be on his way out of Man City, though, after informing Pep Guardiola of a desire to explore options away from the club and Milan and Inter are battling for the right back.

Elsewhere, Chelsea, currently in a rotten spell of form under Enzo Maresca, could negotiate a swap deal with Bayern Munich winger Mathys Tel, inserting out-of-favour striker Christopher Nkunku into a deal.

Arsenal’s search for a new striker may have hit an early stumbling block, as David Ornstein has claimed that Benjamin Sesko is not expected to move during this window, with RB Leipzig likely to refuse to sell.

Speaking on YouTube to Arsenal fan show ‘Highbury Squad’, Ornstein said: “My information is there are no talks for Benjamin Sesko, and he’s not expected to move in thus transfer window.

“He’s high on their [Arsenal’s] recruitment list, they’ve explored it in the past.

“He’s really important to Leipzig at the moment. They don’t have an intention of selling him,” added Ornstein.

Premier League clubs avoid PSR charges for 2023/24 but one team still at risk

All 20 Premier League sides have avoided charges relating to Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR) for the 2023/24 season after the league deemed every club to have been financially compliant.

PSR stipulates that clubs cannot post losses of more than £105m over a three-year period, with most clubs required to submit their accounts for the 2023/24 season by 31 December.

This year, the Premier League has adjudged that all clubs have adhered to the rules – in 2024, the league charged both Everton and Nottingham Forest with PSR breaches, with the Merseyside club later being given an eight-point reduction, while Forest were docked four points.

Napoli are pressing ahead with a move for Manchester United's Alejandro Garnacho, as they seek to reshape the attack after Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's expected move to Paris Saint-Germain.

The Old Trafford hierarchy are willing to listen to all offers this January, even for homegrown products, due to the club's highly restricted circumstances with PSR. Ruben Amorim wants to begin to overhaul of the squad, but can't without sales.

Napoli have already started some work on a potential deal, and Garnacho is understood to be open to a move to the Italian club, although personal terms are yet to be agreed. The player's pace fits manager Antonio Conte's ideal for how he wants the team to play.

Jurgen Klopp has said he hopes Mohamed Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnoldand Virgil van Dijk stay at Anfield as he declared he has no regrets about leaving Liverpoolwhile his former club flourish under Arne Slot.

Salah, Alexander-Arnold and Van Dijk are all out of contract this summerand could leave on free transfers but Klopp, at his unveiling at Red Bull’s head of global soccer, said there was no chance they would join his stable of clubs, including RB Leipzig and RB Salzburg.

The 57-year-old stood down last summer after an eight-and-a-half year reign in which he paid a club record £75m for Van Dijk and gave a debut to Alexander-Arnold, before later making them captain and vice-captain. Salah scored the most goals under Klopp, who described him as Liverpool’s finest forward in their recent history.

Erling Haaland has signed a 10-season contract to keep him at Manchester City until he is 33.

The striker, whose previous deal was set to expire in 2027, has put pen to paper on a seven-year extension in what is almost certainly the most lucrative contract City have given any player.

And the Norwegian, who has scored 111 goals in 125 games since his 2022 arrival from Borussia Dortmund, said he was delighted to agree to spend almost all of the rest of his career at City.

“I am super happy,” he said. “I am proud. It is difficult to put into words because it is a big moment. I am happy and that is the right words to use. I am super proud and happy and I am looking forward to staying here for a long time. In the end, speaking with the people I spoke with, the hunger and the support that I have been getting for the last couple of years from the board, from the bosses and from Pep [Guardiola], it was an easy decision. I am delighted.”

While Garnacho is said to be Napoli’s top target in their hunt for a new winger, Ruben Amorim has said it is “clear” Alejandro Garnacho can have a bright future at Manchester United.

Sunday’s FA Cup match at Arsenal, which United went on to win in a penalty shoot-out, was the first time Garnacho had made Amorim’s starting XI since the 3-2 home defeat to Nottingham Forest on December 7.

During that time the 20-year-old, who has eight goals in 30 appearances this term, had been left out of the squad entirely for the Manchester derby, while speculation has increased that United could be open to selling the academy product to help ease concerns around profit and sustainability rules.

There haven’t been any real developments of note regarding Walker’s situation, though he was left out of the City squad for their draw against Brentford.

Kyle Walker’s fall is the symbol of Man City decline

Friday 17 January 2025 18:08

Mike Jones

A couple of years ago, Pep Guardiola took a phrase to a new dimension. Or a new era, given that it was a prediction for the 2050s. You’ll never beat Kyle Walker? "He will always have pace,” the Manchester Citymanager argued. “Kyle at 60 years old will be the fastest player in this room.”

Guardiola used to thank the full-back’s parents for his genes. Walker, it seemed, was a physiological freak. As others slowed down, as evidence sometimes emerged that his lifestyle was scarcely ideal, he was still the man for a race: with Vinicius Jr, or Kylian Mbappe, or the fastest forward anyone could find.

Until, it transpired, the name of Walker’s podcast felt ever more inappropriate. It was not merely that roadrunners like Adama Traore and Timo Werner could suddenly beat Kyle Walker; it was the ease with which they sped past him, the distance they opened up in the blink of an eye, the way lesser athletes found themselves in the unusual position of going past him.

Fans of both Arsenal and Liverpool have been quick to suggest that making a signing this window could be the difference between winning the title and finishing second, but how often do January signings turn out successful?
