The January transfer window has been relatively quiet due to Financial Fair Play regulations, making it difficult for clubs to make big signings. Despite this, there are still potential players to watch out for in the final days of the window.
Manchester United is exploring options for a striker signing, with Eric Choupo-Moting being considered. However, Bayern Munich is reluctant to let him go as he is an important player for them. United has not yet entered negotiations for Choupo-Moting and have also been linked with Lucas Bergvall, who is now a target for Barcelona.
Rumors about Antony being offered to Saudi clubs have been denied, and there is little concrete information on his potential departure from United. Keep an eye on Karim Benzema as well, as there are tensions surrounding his situation at Al Ittihad and European clubs face financial obstacles in attempting to sign him.
Emile Smith Rowe could potentially attract offers before the end of January, but Arsenal is only open to a permanent transfer for the right price. Talks around new contracts for Arsenal defenders Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu will resume in the coming weeks, and Armando Broja is likely to see movement with interest from West Ham and Wolves.
In addition, Kevin De Bruyne’s future at Manchester City will be discussed internally in the next few months, and there is no concrete movement surrounding Ousmane Diomande despite links with Liverpool.
All in all, while the January transfer window has been relatively quiet, there are still potential storylines to follow in the final days. Clubs are navigating Financial Fair Play regulations and player contracts, making it a challenging but potentially eventful end to the window.
