The winter transfer window is a little over a month away, but that hasn’t stopped the rumours of various players potentially being on the move. Across the world of football, there remains plenty of activity and stories that have football fans talking.
Here, we look at the latest transfer deals that could happen when the market reopens in January.
PAUL POGBA
Inter Milan are keen to bring back Paul Pogba to Italy in a move that would likely top the £200 million mark if it were to go ahead.
The Nerazzurri want to topple Juventus in Serie A and the Sunday Mirror believe they could offer two players plus cash for Pogba.
Ivan Perisic and Milan Skriniar have been linked with United in the past, 23-year-old central defender Skriniar is on the radar of a lot of clubs and it’s no secret Jose Mourinho wants to reinforce his defence.
Perisic, who has fallen out of favour with the Italian side this season, has long been a target of both club and manager.
Despite Pogba’s poor performances for United, executive vice chairman Ed Woodward is reluctant to sell, meaning a special offer will be required to convince him to part with his prime marketing asset.
RAFA BENITEZ
Rafa Benitez is a shock target for mega rich Chinese club Guangzhou Evergrande, who have just lost their Chinese Super League title under Italian Fabio Cannavaro
The Spaniard, 58, is in the last year of his contract at Newcastle, and sources close to him have revealed he has been contacted by middle men from China.
The deal could be worth up to £10m a year, with compensation to the Magpies not thought to be a problem. Benitez is believed to be discussing the issue with his family and friends.
