Transfer news live: Spurs plot shock Robertson move, Alvarez to Arsenal update, Liverpool want Jacquet | OneFootball

New wage figures show Arsenal biggest over-performers

Clubs across Europe are entering the final 10 days of the January transfer window as they look to make final additions before the business end of the season.

Tottenham have produced perhaps the shock of the window so far after it emerged that they were plotting a move for Liverpool stalwart Andy Robertson, whose contract is up at the end of the season. The Scotland captain has been at Anfield since 2017 and has won everything there is to win, but has lost his starting spot this term following the arrival of Milos Kerkez.

Across London, Chelsea are expected to be busy in the final days of the window, with the Blues reportedly targeting a loan move for Nottingham Forest midfielder Douglas Luiz alongside trying to seal a deal for promising French defender Jeremy Jacquet.

However, Liverpool may also have entered the race for Jacquet, with the Reds tracking several centre-back targets, including Tottenham’s Micky van de Ven as well as Alessandro Bastoni of Inter Milan and Borussia Dortmund’s Nico Schlotterbeck.

And while Manchester City appear to have completed their January business after the arrivals of Antoine Semenyo and Marc Guehi, their city neighbours are said to be tracking several midfield targets, with Ruben Loftus-Cheek among those linked after the news that Casemiro will be leaving at the end of the season.

Elsewhere, Premier League leaders Arsenal seem to be happy with their business this month, with Mikel Arteta’s side not expected to make any additions after Ethan Nwaneri completed his loan move to Marseille.

Cole Palmer wants return to Manchester?

Cole Palmer is rumoured to want to return to Manchester but not in a move back to Man City.

The Express report that the Chelsea playmaker is willing to move to Manchester United in the hopes of returning to his home city.

Palmer moved from City to Chelsea in 2023 for £42.5m but has had his season curtailed by injuries this year.

His contract at Stamford Bridge runs until 2033 so there is no reason for Chelsea to sell him unless a big offer is made.

Howe admits Newcastle limited on signings

Newcastle manager Eddie Howe has admitted that the Mgpies are limited with what they can do in this transfer window.

The club have not added to their squad this month despite their injury problems, though they are competing on three fronts with the Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup.

However, Howe said the he is “not panicking”, adding: “The worst thing you can do in the transfer market is panic. We have our strategy.

"PSR is controlling what we're able to do. That gives us limited room to manoeuvre to try and bring a player in that can elevate the squad and have a long-term future at the football club with the finances we have available.

"Let's see what happens in the last few days. But anything that can happen. Certainly, we will try not to panic,” he added.
