TRENDING RUMORS

- Barcelona's priority to reinforce on the left wing is still Athletic Club's Nico Williams, reports Diario Sport. The 22-year-old has a €65 million release clause but his wage demands of a net €9m to €10m-per-season could be a hinderance for the Blaugrana, and Napoli's Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is being viewed as the main alternative to the Spain international.

- Chelsea are preparing a summer move for Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhín Kelleher, reports The Sun, with the 25-year-old expected to leave Anfield when Giorgi Mamardashvili arrives from Valencia. The Reds aren't keen to let their players join a potential title rival but could do so if their £35m valuation is met. Juventus and Napoli are also monitoring the Republic of Ireland international.

- Bayern Munich are planning to make Jamal Musiala the highest-paid German player in Europe with a contract worth up to €25m-per-year that would last until 2029, as reported by Sky Sports Deutschland. In another report by the same outlet, it is stated that Bayern are negotiating with Joshua Kimmich with a salary reduction for the midfielder being unlikely. Real Madrid and Barcelona are both monitoring Kimmich's situation with the 29-year-old's contract ending in the summer if an agreement can't be reached.

- Manchester United are willing to listen to offers for Antony during the January transfer window, reports the Daily Star, which add that manager Rúben Amorim wants Sporting CP's Geovany Quenda to replace him. The Red Devils are keen to save on the 24-year-old's wages, so are open to a loan or permanent departure.

- Borussia Dortmund are in contact with Sunderland midfielder Jobe Bellingham, reports Sky Sports Deutschland, although there has not yet been a concrete approach for the 19-year-old. Bellingham is expected to cost around €25m and his development is being closely monitored by the Bundesliga club, while top English clubs are also interested.

- Juventus are interested in signing Olympique Lyonnais striker Georges Mikautadze, reports Tuttosport, with the Ligue 1 club needing to offload players to avoid being relegated. I Bianconeri have previously been linked with Manchester United's Joshua Zirkzee and Lille's Jonathan David amid the uncertainty surrounding Dušan Vlahović's situation.
