Plus, Arsenal rejected a January bid for a star with newfound importance, while one Chelsea midfielder agreed to a winter move. There's plenty to cover, so let's jump right in.

Gyokeres deal on?

Viktor Gyokeres is unhappy at Sporting CP and could potentially look for a way out as early as January.

Could he follow beloved coach Ruben Amorim to Man Utd? In doing so, he could emulate his two idols, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Should a deal for Gyokeres not materialise, Man Utd could also push for Victor Osimhen.

To bring in players, especially in January, Man Utd will also have to get rid of some.
