Plus, Chelsea changed their stance on Mykhailo Mudryk and Man Utd's plans for the No.9 position have been revealed. There's plenty to cover, so let's jump right in.

Exclusive: Arsenal learn Sterling price

FootballTransfers understands that Chelsea are willing to sell Raheem Sterling for around €30 million.

He is currently on loan at Arsenal, but he is far from the Gunners' only transfer target for the wings.

Confirmed: Chelsea won't sell Mudryk

We can also confirm that Chelsea are not looking to sell Mykhailo Mudryk in January despite reports to the contrary.

The winger is one of many Chelsea players currently struggling for minutes. Joao Felix is another, so why did they even sign him?

Record signing Enzo Fernandez is also a player with question marks hanging over his future. Should he still be a starter for Chelsea?

Man Utd's No.9 plan

Sensational reports claim that Man Utd could loan Joshua Zirkzee to make room for Benjamin Sesko.

The Red Devils could also look to the Netherlands for a striker option, with ex-Man Utd flop Wout Weghorst potentially playing a crucial role.

Ten Hag vs Mourinho

Erik ten Hag has sung Jose Mourinho's praises ahead of Man Utd's Europa League clash with Fenerbahce.

There have been suggestions that Mourinho could get the under-pressure Red Devils boss sacked - but the opposite may be an equally likely scenario.

Transfer news

Finally, let's finish up with some more transfer news from around the world. Bayer Leverkusen are already preparing for Xabi Alonso's 2025 departure.

Chelsea vice-captain Ben Chilwell was offered to Borussia Dortmund in the summer - and a January move is 'not off the table.'

Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Christian Eriksen will 'likely' leave Man Utd next year.

Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis has come out with some eyebrow-raising quotes on star winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

Similarly, Sporting CP president Frederico Varandas has spoken about Viktor Gyokeres' future.

Real Madrid have a huge Jude Bellingham problem because of Kylian Mbappe.

Chelsea may really have signed the next Neymar in Estevao.

Do Chelsea need a big-name striker or is Nicolas Jackson more than sufficient?

Antony's Man Utd career has hit an all-time low.

Lastly, Man Utd's 'dream signing' for 2025 has been revealed.
