The January transfer window is about to smash wide open, hopefully causing a frenzy of frenetic transfers, scintillating stars coming and going, managers looking to reinforce, or cut loose excess baggage for a full stellar second half push in the Premier League. The gossip mill continues to turn with new names being linked to each and every club everyday.
Bookmakers Ladbrokes have provided a complete run down of each single Premier League side's most likely January transfer, for you to peruse at your leisure below.
Though Chelsea have reportedly today submitted a bid for Borussia Dortmund’s Christian Pulisic, it is league leaders Liverpool who find the exciting American winger as their likeliest transfer, backed at 5/1. Jurgen Klopp has got the Reds ticking perfectly at the moment and a move to Anfield is certainly and attractive proposition.
The Blues favoured move, on-the-other-hand, is for Bournemouth’s Callum Wilson (2/1 for the move). With the Cherries going on a torrid run recently and slumping down to 12th in the table, could the English forward indeed move up to Stamford Bridge and lead the line instead of Alvaro Morata?
The south-coast club are apparently interested in Chelsea’s young Ruben Loftus-Cheek. A potential swap-deal may not beyond the realms of possibility which may see the English lad waving to Wilson as they drive past each other on the M3.
Perhaps the most interesting odds are Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Manchester United 2/1 to procure Napoli’s exceptional defender Kalidou Koulibaly. The 13-time Premier League champions were crying out for a centre-back in the summer, with Spurs’ Toby Alderweireld and Leicester City’s Harry Maguire mooted.
The Senegalese international is almost certainly a better acquisition - although a gargantuan fee hanging over his head is a sticking point to gift an interim manager -and most definitely has the ability to rectify a questionable United back-line.
'K2' has been subject of some absolutely atrocious abuse in Italy recently and is regarded as one of the best centre-backs in the world. K2 and Old Trafford may be a match made in Red Devil heaven should the defender favour a move away.
Paris Saint-Germain’s Adrien Rabiot has been packing his bags in the France capital for a while now (with his mother’s help), with Barcelona the midfielder’s likely destination. However, the bookies make a move to the new Tottenham Hotspur at 8/1 and join up with former teammate Lucas Moura. It couldn’t really happen, could it?
