Amid a mixed reaction reaction to reports of Vitor Pereira’s potential appointment as Everton boss, a final decision has yet to be made by owner Farhad Moshiri and Frank Lampard is still very much in contention for the job.

Lyon akceptoval 40m za Bruna od newcastlu. Teď je to na hrací.

Aston Villa have submitted an offer to Juventus for Rodrigo Bentacur. Juve are NOT selling both Arthur and Bentacur; it's one of them. Soon they'll make a decision.

HAVANA: udajne se s nikym jinym nez s Juve ani nebavil...neragoval
a s Juve uz je prej dohodnut uz par mesicu... coz teda psal Kytt uz drive

Jinak údajně afc dostalo info že vlahovic do afc nechce už na začátku. Edu s artetou ho chtěli zkusit přesvědčit.

Zajímalo by mě, jestli to ztroskotalo na sportovní části věci, smlouvě pro hráče nebo tomu fee pro agenta co běhalo po twitteru)

HAVANA: Čekal sem, že jsou na tom hůř s municí... otázka je na kolik let to budou splácet :D

ASYD: Tohle mě furt baví...

ASYD: Ousmane Dembélé is the key for Barcelona to succeed in their attempts to sign Tagliafico and Morata this transfer window.
The Frenchman must leave or lower his salary for the club to sign anyone.

Barcelona want to sign Nicolás Tagliafico from Ajax this month and have offered a loan deal with obligation to buy for €4M + Alejandro Balde in exchange.

Arsenal have long-term midfield targets - Ruben Neves was considered as a possible replacement for Granit Xhaka last summer & his performances for Wolves this season have done little to dissuade the club of their interest.
RB Leipzig’s Tyler Adams was considered as a potential solution to the right-back position in the summer, but retain considerable interest in the 22-year-old as a midfielder. His athleticism & mobility would bring stylistic variety to Arsenal’s midfield.
Bruno Guimarães & particularly Douglas Luiz are also admired. Arteta knows Luiz well during their time at Man City. For various reasons, these targets are difficult to acquire in January. Arsenal are likely to examine these names more closely in the summer.

The prospect of joining Arsenal would appeal to Dominic Calvert-Lewin. The club are a good fit for his ambitions. Calvert-Lewin is much admired by the coaching staff at Arsenal, who have proved influential in previous recruitment decisions.
Calvert-Lewin’s personality is seen as a good fit for Arsenal’s current squad & a mooted fee in the region of £60m has not deterred their interest; the problem is Everton’s reluctance to sell. The likelihood is that Arsenal would have to return with a summer bid.
