VILLARREAL SET TO END SANDRO RAMIREZ’S EVERTON NIGHTMARE
La Liga outfit Villarreal are set to offer Everton flop Sandro Ramirez a lifeline to return to Spain.
The former Malaga striker, who signed for the Toffees last summer for a £7m fee but has struggled to settle on Merseyside, is expected to leave the Goodison Park club during the transfer window.
The Yellow Submarines want to tie-up a deal for the 22-year-old quickly given top goalscorer Cedric Bakambu is on the verge of joining Chinese Super League side Beijing Guoan.
Sevilla are also interested in former Barcelona forward Ramirez but Villarreal are likely to win the race to sign him.
RATING: 9/10
VERDICT
According to Marca, this transfer is very much on the cards and given Everton have agreed to sign Turkish forward Cenk Tosun, Ramirez’s exit from Goodison is only a matter of time.
RAFINHA LINKED WITH SAN SIRO SWITCH
Barcelona misfit Rafinha is expected to leave the Camp Nou club during the January transfer window, according to Tuttosport.
The Brazilian midfielder is surplus to requirements at the La Liga giants, with both AC Milan and Valencia vying for his signature.
Despite rising up through the La Masia ranks as a teenager, Rafinha, now 24, has struggled to command regular first-team football and has not played a single minute of action this term.
Blaugrana are hoping to free-up their wage bill and he is expected to join the likes of Arda Turan in leaving Barca.
RATING: 9/10
VERDICT
Barcelona are looking to trim their squad, and with competition in midfield being high, Rafinha will be sold to the highest bidder this month for a fee, likely to be in the region of €10m.
SAMUEL UMTITI SUBJECT TO INTENSE INTEREST FROM MAN CITY
Another Barcelona man who could leave Catalonia this month is towering defender Samuel Umtiti.
It is reported by L’Equipe that Manchester City are preparing a big-money raid for the France star, who has a been a rock at the back for Ernesto Valverde’s men this term.
The 24-year-old is valued at around €60m and City boss Pep Guardiola is keen to add the ball-playing centre-back to his table-topping squad.
Barcelona will be reluctant to sell the former Lyon star in the winter window, but expect the Premier League club to come in with a tempting offer.
RATING: 5/10
VERDICT
It’s no secret that the Sky Blues view Umtiti as a long-term replacement for club captain Vincent Kompany but Guardiola’s men would have to work wonders to clinch a deal to sign the centre-back in January.
Barcelona want to keep the defender and they risk loosening their grip on the La Liga title if they offload him.
