The January transfer window wraps up on Monday evening, making today a buildup to the final frenzy. Manchester City leads the spending among top clubs with signings of Antoine Semenyo and Marc Guehi, while others hold back for summer moves.
Top Clubs Stay Cautious
Chelsea and Manchester United recently appointed new head coaches but show no rush to splash cash now. Arsenal remains silent on incomings, though Ethan Nwaneri heads out on loan and Max Dowman inks a fresh contract.
Crystal Palace’s Striker Shuffle
Crystal Palace navigates a turbulent month in attack. Jean-Philippe Mateta nears a £30 million switch to AC Milan, having agreed terms until 2030. Manager Oliver Glasner insists on securing a direct replacement before approving the exit, especially after losing Marc Guehi earlier this window. Mateta serves as the team’s primary goal threat.
Meanwhile, Palace’s bid to land Jorgen Strand Larsen from Wolves—valued at £45 million plus £5 million in add-ons—teeters amid the upheaval. Time ticks down as the Eagles scramble to stabilize their forward line before the deadline.
Man Utd Eyes Rashford Reunion
Michael Carrick eyes bringing Marcus Rashford back to Manchester United if he secures the permanent managerial role. Rashford currently thrives on a season-long loan at Barcelona, where the Spanish side holds a £26 million buy option.
Previously sidelined at Old Trafford under Ruben Amorim, Rashford could feature prominently in Carrick’s vision for the squad.
Updates continue as the window nears its close—stay tuned for the latest developments.
