Transfer news LIVE! Arsenal to sign Zubimendi, Vlahovic latest; Chelsea £65m decision; Kolo Muani to Spurs | OneFootball

January window hotting up as Premier League sides eye big deals

Transfer news LIVE!

Arsenal have seemingly won the race to sign Martin Zubimendi, with the Gunners expected to wrap up a £51million deal for the Real Sociedad midfielder to join in the summer. Mikel Arteta is also desperate to strengthen in attack and Dusan Vlahovic could prove to be the solution, with Juventus reportedly increasingly open to selling this month. The Gunners have been linked with Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo, while Alexander Isak remains a target.

PSG are expected to let striker Randal Kolo Muani leave on loan, with Tottenham and Manchester United very interested, along with Juventus who reportedly feel they have the edge over the Premier League pair. Kolo Muani's possible arrival at Old Trafford should see Marcus Rashford depart, while Kobbie Mainoo also faces an uncertain future. Chelsea, meanwhile, have reportedly entered talks with Bayern over teenage striker Mathys Tel, while they remain interested in Marc Guehi.

Tottenham have entered the race for Rashford, and Arsenal have also been credited with interest. Over at Anfield, reports claim that Liverpool have turned down a £70m bid from a Saudi Arabian club for Darwin Nunez. Man City are closing in on a £80m double deal for Abdukodir Khusanov and Omar Marmoush. Follow the latest transfer news, rumours and gossip live below!

Devenny agrees new deal at Palace

Justin Devenny has signed a new contract with Crystal Palace, active until 2027.

The 21-year-old midfielder made his Premier League debut against Fulham in November, before scoring his first senior goal in the following game against Aston Villa in a 2-2 draw at Villa Park.

Devenny also became a full Northern Ireland international in November.

“I'm absolutely delighted,” Devenny said of his new deal at Selhurst Park.

“It’s just another step in my career and like every step there's an opportunity and I'm grateful to have it.

“It's a new step, so a new time to work hard, a new learning experience and a new time to show everyone what I can do.”

Lankshear set for loan move

Ange Postecoglou has confirmed striker Will Lankshear is likely leave Tottenham on loan this month.

The 19-year-old made his Spurs debut in their Europa League win over Ferencvaros in October and scored his first goal for the club during the dramatic defeat at Galatasaray a month later.

Postecoglou left the teenager on the bench in Sunday’s FA Cup win over non-League Tamworth, with Timo Werner initially deputising for first-choice centre-forward Dominic Solanke.

Werner, despite having been criticised by Postecoglou earlier this season, looks set to stay for the remainder of his loan move from RB Leipzig. Richarlison is also nearing a return from injury, increasing competition for places even further.

Asked about potential outgoings this month when speaking before Wednesday's trip to Arsenal, Postecoglou confirmed Lankshear could follow defender Alfie Dorrington – who joined Aberdeen on loan – through the exit door.

“We can't afford to let anyone go at the moment,” he said.

“Alfie Dorrington has gone out on loan and it will be probably be similar for young Will [Lankshear] as well, because he hasn't played a lot.”

Exclusive: Heaven wanted by Eintracht Frankfurt

Arsenal defender Ayden Heaven is attracting interest from Eintracht Frankfurt.

Heaven is yet to sign a professional contract with Arsenal and his scholarship terms expire this summer.

The Gunners are keen to keep hold of the 18-year-old, who came through the academy with Ethan Nwaneri and Myles Lewis-Skelly.

Heaven made his debut for Arsenal earlier this season against Preston in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup.

Eintracht Frankfurt have now expressed an interest in the centre-back, who they could sign in the summer when his scholarship terms with Arsenal expire.

Arsenal would be due some form of compensation if Heaven left given he was developed by their academy.
