AARON WAN-BISSAKA
Manchester City and Everton have reportedly begun keeping tabs on the Crystal Palace starlet. The Daily Mirror says the 20-year-old has impressed the Sky Blues, who have made a number of discreet enquiries about the defender. The Toffees are understood to be eyeing the England U21 international as a long-term replacement for club captain Seamus Coleman, who turned 30 in October. Wan-Bissaka has made 20 appearances for the Eagles since being handed his first-team debut against Tottenham back in February.
RUBEN LOFTUS-CHEEK
Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri has blocked a move by West Ham to take the highly-rated midfielder on loan, the Daily Mirror reports. Loftus-Cheek is yet to start a league game this campaign and didn’t even make the England squad for last month’s Nations League matches against Croatia and Spain. The midfielder is wanted by Manuel Pellegrini in the January transfer window but Sarri has ruled out the 22-year-old from going anywhere this season. Newcastle and Wolves are also hunting for his signature.
DANNY WELBECK
The Arsenal striker is being eyed up by Crystal Palace, according to The Sun. The paper says the struggling side are weighing up a £10 million January bid for the 27-year-old, who is out of contract at the Emirates at the end of the season. Eagles boss Roy Hodgson is said to be keen on the England international to help bring the goals his team desperately needs. Welbeck has only scored 16 goals in his 88 appearances since joining the Gunners from Manchester United in 2014.
