Arsenal are preparing an offer for Antonio Nusa, Chelsea lead the Alex Scott chase, and Tottenham have been warned off Troy Parrott. Liverpool are linked with Tottenham captain Micky van de Ven. Erling Haaland is believed to prefer LaLiga if he ever leaves Manchester City, while Manchester United have a boost over David Raum.

Fussball News in Germany reports Arsenal plan an opening bid of €40m for RB Leipzig’s Norway international Nusa, though the club are thought to want up to €65m and are reluctant to sell in January. Tottenham, Aston Villa, Newcastle and leading European sides are also credited with interest.

The Daily Telegraph says Chelsea are ahead of Arsenal and Liverpool for Bournemouth midfielder Scott, who made his first senior England start against Croatia. Real Madrid are also in the frame.

Estadio Deportivo claims Real Betis will not entertain approaches for Parrott despite an £85m release clause, after the Ireland striker’s summer switch from AZ Alkmaar. A Spurs return looks unlikely, with Vangelis Pavlidis considered instead.

Football Insider reports Liverpool are plotting a move for Van de Ven either in January or next summer, with Manchester United also keen. Tottenham are not expected to consider offers and his contract runs to 2031.

TEAMtalk says Chelsea have reignited interest in Barcelona’s Jules Kounde, with Bayern Munich also keen after a limited role under Hansi Flick.
