Weston McKennie's future beyond the end of this season remains an unknown, but AC Milan are unlikely to be his destination. McKennie is proving to be one of the key men under Luciano Spalletti, and on Sunday he sparked the comeback in Juventus' 2-2 draw with Lazio by scoring the goal that halved the deficit, continuing a good run of scoring form.
Yildiz has been a star player for Juve in recent seasons, establishing himself as one of the most exciting young talents in world football. This had seen the Turkey international linked with other big clubs, with our information being that Arsenal and Chelsea have been keen on him. Still, Romano has now posted on X about Yildiz agreeing terms on a new deal with Juventus, becoming their highest paid player as a result ?????
Jones has 18 months left on his current Liverpool contract, so it could be that it would make sense for them to cash in on him this summer.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus are actively exploring the possibility of re-signing the Italian forward, who has endured a frustrating spell at Anfield despite being part of a Premier League title-winning squad. Chiesa arrived at Liverpool with high expectations following his impressive displays in Italy, where he became one of Serie A's most dynamic attackers. However, his time in England has not unfolded as hoped.
This summer, Luka Modric could decide to leave AC Milan, but under the right conditions, the extra year clause in his contract could be activated. When he signed in the summer, many were unsure what version of Modric Milan would get. Ultimately, he is not in the peak years of his career, and his playing time dwindled for Real Madrid last season.
Ruben Loftus-Cheek's future is one of the most unclear situations at AC Milan, and there are plenty of questions to be asked. It has seemed very likely that Loftus-Cheek left Milan in the next few months, if not this month, given his contract expires next summer. So, with no talks to extend in the works, a sale would make sense, with his value only dropping.
Interim manager Michael Carrick has urged the club not to sell the player. The 32-year-old remains an integral part of the first-team squad, and Manchester United could certainly use him. They have looked vulnerable at the back at times, and they need his experience and quality in defence. Apart from that, he's a leader in the dressing room, and Manchester United simply cannot afford to weaken the team in the middle of the season.
Newcastle United are reportedly exploring a transfer for Inter Milan centre-back Stefan de Vrij, who recently saw another move fall through. De Vrij had been close to making a move to Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal, but he remains an Inter player for the time being after that deal collapsed late on. Newcastle are now alongside Nottingham Forest in looking into a possible move for De Vrij this month, according to Football Insider.
Ousmane Dembélé put transfer talk behind him and scored a crucial brace for Paris Saint-Germain in a 3-0 win over Lille that returned it to the top of Ligue 1 on Friday. French media last week reported that the 2025 Ballon d'Or winner rejected a new contract offer. His coach Luis Enrique called the speculation fake news and Dembélé's focus was razor sharp in a game between two of the league's top four.
Yeah, for sure. I don't think Wolves have any plans to sell Mateus Mane in the January window. He has been a real bright spark for Wolves in what has been a dark season so far at Molineux. Wolves won't want to entertain losing such a bright young prospect such as Mane right now. They want to keep hold of him and build a team around him because that's how impressive his displays have been.
The crisis at Old Trafford is refusing to end with the Red Devils recently sacking manager Ruben Amorim after a run of poor results and his disagreements with the club hierarchy. United have failed to find consistency once again this season and qualification for the Champions League is looking in danger considering their form and performances. After just more than a year in the job,
Leeds United defender Sebastian Bornauw is reportedly keen on leaving the club. The player has struggled to secure regular opportunities at the Premier League club and has expressed his desire to leave due to a lack of playing time. It will be interesting to see if Leeds United are prepared to sanction his departure. The Belgian defender was given an opportunity to showcase his qualities against Liverpool and Manchester United recently, and he did quite well against them.
Mathys Tel only completed a permanent move to Tottenham Hotspur last summer, but could already have one foot out of the door. Tottenham signed Tel up from Bayern Munich for a reported 30m last June after a promising loan spell with Ange Postecoglou's side. However, signs quickly emerged that new gaffer Thomas Frank was not quite so much of an admirer following his arrival from Brentford just a few days before Tel's permanent signing was confirmed.
