According to The Standard, Premier League clubs remain busy in the market, with Arsenal encouraged over Julian Alvarez, Chelsea weighing midfield options, Manchester United facing a fight to keep JJ Gabriel, and Tottenham pursuing a sporting director.
Arsenal have announced an agreement to sign Andria Bartishvili, a youngster likened to Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. They also retain interest in Kenan Yildiz and Eli Junior Kroupi, alongside links to Liverpool’s Rio Ngumoha.
The Gunners have been handed encouragement over long-term target Julian Alvarez, with Barcelona focusing on Harry Kane instead.
Chelsea are expected to sign a replacement for Enzo Fernandez in January, though interest in Lamine Camara may have cooled. Marc Bernal and Manu Kone are the latest names linked, while Bournemouth’s Alex Scott remains a long-term target.
Liverpool could yet emerge as Camara’s destination, while Bayern Munich are showing interest in Florian Wirtz.
United are battling to keep academy prospect JJ Gabriel after a surprise request to leave.
Tottenham are said to be keen on appointing Piero Ausilio as sporting director ahead of the winter window opening.
