Plus, Man Utd decided to finally axe Antony and Arsenal are the latest club to join the race to sign Jhon Duran. There's plenty to cover, so let's jump right in.

Exclusive: Man Utd make Gutierrez top target

FootballTransfers understands that Man Utd have made Girona star Miguel Gutierrez their No.1 left-back target.

Maresca vs Chelsea?

Chelsea are bewildered by Josh Acheampong's refusal to sign a new contract and have frozen him out.

However, Enzo Maresca is far from thrilled that one of the club's biggest prospects is being treated this way.

The Chelsea head coach has also cast doubt on Mykhailo Mudryk's future at the club.

But according to one of his ex-Shakhtar directors, Maresca simply does not know how to use the winger.

Man Utd axe Antony

Man Utd have greenlit a January loan for big-money flop Antony.

They want to replace him with 17-year-old Geovany Quenda but face a massive, €100 million hurdle.

The Red Devils are also eyeing three other teenage wonderkids.

Despite the exciting shift in transfer policy, co-owners INEOS have been described as the 'new Glazers.'

Arsenal eye Duran

Arsenal are the latest European giant to take an interest in Aston Villa star Jhon Duran.

Transfer news

Finally, let's finish up with some more transfer news from around the world. Alphonso Davies will nominally be a free transfer, but his suitors will have to shell out a massive sum to sign the out-of-contract Bayern star.

Erling Haaland is very keen to sign a new contract at Man City.

Fabrizio Romano has responded to rumours that Real Madrid have offered Trent Alexander-Arnold a lucrative contract.

Have PSG lost their magic after Kylian Mbappe's exit? Thierry Henry certainly thinks so.

Timo Werner is not playing a lot at Tottenham, but RB Leipzig will not recall the forward in January.

Jose Mourinho believes that Man City will be stripped of the Premier League title that rightfully belongs to his Man Utd (according to him).

Leroy Sane is surprised that he is being linked with Newcastle.

The reason why Thomas Tuchel rejected Man Utd has been revealed.

Arsenal have named their replacement for Jack Wilshere, who has left the club's U18s to take on a first-team coaching role at Norwich.

Chelsea's attempts at repeating their Cole Palmer trick are coming under threat.

Lastly, Man Utd's list of Erik ten Hag replacements has been revealed.
