Report: Liverpool circling around 22-year-old West Ham player
Liverpool and Manchester City are among clubs that are ‘circling’ around West Ham United’s highly-rated young midfielder Declan Rice, according to reports from The Guardian. Rice was heavily linked with a move to Chelsea during the summer transfer window, but the Hammers were reluctant to let him go. Frank Lampard reportedly is a big admirer of Rice, and it would take a fee in the region of £80 million to lure him away from the London Stadium. According to a recent report from The Mirror, Rice has informed his friends that he would prefer to stay in London and has no interest in joining Manchester United, another club who are interested in signing him. Rice is enjoying a superb campaign once again, and West Ham are in no rush to sell him in the next summer. SL View: Do Liverpool ...

Report: Aston Villa agree fee for 26-yr-old, player set to join before Wednesday
Aston Villa have agreed a deal to sign Morgan Sanson from Marseille this month. According to Sky Sports, the Premier League side will pay £14 million to the French side for the midfielder and the package could rise to £15.5m with add-ons. Villa have been trying to sign the 26-year-old midfielder for 18 months now and they will be delighted to have finally made a breakthrough. Sanson has two goals and three assists to his name in 10 Ligue 1 starts so far this season and he will add more flair to the side.

Predicted Rangers XI v Ross County: Gerrard to make one change, 24-yr-old to start
Rangers host Ross County in the Scottish Premiership later today and they will be hoping to extend their lead at the top of the table with a win at home. Steven Gerrard’s side were held to a draw in the last outing but they are 20 points clear at the top and they will be the firm favourites heading into the game. Ross County are coming into this game on the back of some mediocre performances. They have failed to win four of their last six League matches. The last time these two sides met in December, Rangers cruised to a comfortable 4-0 win. Rangers have an excellent record against today’s opponents and they have won the last six meetings between the two sides, conceding just once. The home side will be without Scott Arfield and Nikola Katic due to injury issues. George Edmundson and Jorda...
Opinion: Tomori’s Chelsea exit a huge blunder
Chelsea F.C. have come to an agreement with AC Milan to loan out Fikayo Tomori with the option to buy him after the loan period. Tomori is a 23-year-old English defender who joined Chelsea’s academy at the age of eight. During his time with Chelsea’s senior team, he has been loaned out to Brighton & Hove Albion, Hull City, and Derby County. Tomori makes this loan move to Milan due to the lack of playing time having played only four matches this season. One of those matches was in the Premier League, in which he came off the bench against Liverpool back in September. Tomori will join Milan on a six-month loan deal until the end of the 2020/2021 season. At the end of the loan, Milan will have the option to buy him for £25 million, which suggests Chelsea are open to selling the playe...
Predicted Man Utd XI v Liverpool: Solskjaer to make six changes, 23-yr-old to start
Manchester United take on Liverpool in the FA Cup this Sunday and the Red Devils will look to send their rivals crashing out of the competition with a win at home. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side have all the momentum heading into Sunday’s game and they will be the favourites to win here. Liverpool are in a bit of a crisis right now and they have won just one of their last six matches. The Reds have several injury problems across the pitch but United should be able to field their best eleven here. The only injury problems for the home side are Phil Jones, Brandon Williams and Marcos Rojo. The Red Devils have failed to beat Liverpool in their last six meetings and they will fancy their chances of breaking that streak this week. The home side are unbeaten in five of their last six matc...
Report: Newcastle United interested in signing 20-year-old defender from PSV Eindhoven
Newcastle United are understood to hold an interest in signing PSV Eindhoven defender Chris Gloster, according to ESPN. The 20-year-old joined PSV from Hannover in the summer of 2019, but he has yet to make his senior debut for the club. Instead, he has been playing with the Under-21 side for whom he has made 22 appearances in the second tier of Dutch football. It is now reported that he has grabbed the attention of the Magpies, but any deal would be dependent on him securing a UK work permit. SL view: The Magpies signed Jamaal Lewis from Norwich City in the summer to bolster the left-back spot, but he has been inconsistent with his displays. The club are well covered in the position with Matt Ritchie and Paul Dummett, who has returned from a long-term injury, providing the competition for...
‘Should fit our system’: Many West Ham fans react after knowing who Moyes could sign
West Ham United have been linked with a move for talented young striker Josh Maja, and the Hammers fans have given a negative reaction on Twitter after hearing the report. According to talkSPORT journalist Alex Crook, the Hammers could look to sign the former Sunderland striker this month. David Moyes is desperate to sign a new striker this month following the departure of Sebastien Haller who joined Ajax. The Hammers have been linked with a plethora of strikers this month, but they have been unsuccessful in landing any of their targets. West Ham have been linked with players like Josh King, Boulaye Dia, Gaetan Laborde, and Youssef En-Nesyri, but the Hammers are struggling to meet their asking price. It has been reported that Moyes does not want to sign just for the sake of it. West H...
‘Absolute no brainer’, ‘Get him here’: Some Newcastle fans react to latest transfer update
Newcastle United fans have taken to social networking site Twitter to express their reaction to reports linking their club with a move for Jetro Willems this month. According to reports from the Shields Gazette, the Magpies have explored the possibility of signing the 26-year-old Dutch defender as Steve Bruce is looking to bolster his defence. Newcastle signed Jamal Lewis in the summer, while Bruce has Paul Dummett as another option. However, Lewis has struggled to make a strong impact, while Dummett has injury concerns having missed most of last year with hamstring problems. Bruce is looking to bring in a few players this month on loan, and Willems could be an option for the Magpies. Many Newcastle fans have suggested that he should be signed this month and that it’s a no-b...
Report: Arsenal interested in experienced Premier League left-back
Arsenal are monitoring the contract situation of Southampton defender Ryan Bertrand as per a report from Standard Sport. The north London side recently sanctioned the loan exit of Sead Kolasinac to Schalke 04 and it is unclear whether he will be re-integrated into the squad in the summer. With his departure, Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Bukayo Saka, who has played in an attacking role this term, are the back-up options for regular left-back Kieran Tierney. Maitland-Niles has recently got his chance when Tierney has been unavailable, but he has struggled to deliver quality crosses into the box which is justified. The England international is a central midfielder by trade, but he has barely played in the position during his senior career with the Gunners. Arteta recently hinted that the club c...
‘Done’: Popular pundit claims Tottenham man will move to PL rival in the summer
Former Liverpool player turned popular football pundit Don Hutchison has claimed that Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane will join Manchester City in the summer. Kane is arguably one of the best strikers in world football at the moment, and the England skipper is enjoying a rich vein of form under Jose Mourinho. The 27-year-old is at the peak of his career, and heavyweight clubs are expected to register an interest in him. Hutchison has made a bold claim that not only Pep Guardiola’s side are keen to sign him, but the Citizens have a deal in place already. The Premier League TV pundit made the claim when he was responding to an answer from a fan who asked him about whether the Liverpool front three is to blame following the Reds defeat against Burnley last night. Maybe time to look for a...
