Barcelona are interested in signing Nathan Ake from Manchester City in the January transfer window, according to CaughtOffSide . The report has claimed that last season's La Liga winners are considering a loan bid for Ake following Andreas Christensen's injury. Man City, too, are willing to offload Ake midway through the 2025-26 campaign, but the Premier League club want a permanent sale. The Cityzens are looking for around €30-35 million, but for Barcelona, a loan deal with the option to make it permanent next summer is more realistic.

Everybody knows Kieran [Tierney]," he added. "I knew him before I came here. He's an important player for us. There are different kinds of personalities. Kieran is not a vocal leader, but shows on the pitch.

Barcelona were expected to have a quiet January transfer window but those plans may have changed after center-back Andreas Christensen was ruled out for several months with an ACL injury. "I'll talk to Deco," was the message from Hansi Flick about the situation, meaning the rumor mill has been quick to churn out a host of names who could work as potential short-term options for the Catalans in January.

West Ham United are hoping to sign Kaio Jorge from Cruzeiro during the January transfer window. The 23-year-old striker is in spectacular form right now, and he has 26 goals this season. He could solve West Ham's goal-scoring problems and help them survive in the Premier League. They are currently fighting for survival in the top flight, and they need quality players in order to stay up.

The 25-year-old has enjoyed an outstanding season in the Eredivisie and is now firmly on West Ham's radar, with reports in the Netherlands suggesting a move could be edging closer. El Karouani has been one of Utrecht's standout performers this campaign, combining defensive reliability with exceptional attacking output. From 29 appearances in all competitions, the Moroccan-born full-back has registered an impressive three goals and 15 assists.

Chelsea's plans for the January transfer window are beginning to take shape, with midfield reinforcement emerging as the club's primary objective. With Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo carrying an enormous workload in the centre of the pitch, the Blues are keen to add a dynamic, high-energy midfielder who can provide rotation, balance, and long-term value. While attacking additions are not considered urgent, several high-profile and high-potential names remain firmly on Chelsea's shortlist, sources close to the agents industry have informed CaughtOffside.

Leeds United are interested in signing the Hibernian midfielder Josh Mulligan. The 23-year-old has been a key player for the Scottish outfit since joining them, and his performances have attracted the attention of multiple clubs. Leeds United and Nottingham Forest are keeping tabs on him from the Premier League. The player is reportedly available for a reasonable amount of money next month.

Aston Villa have had an excellent season so far, and they would ideally like to add players in January to improve their chances of a Champions League finish in the Premier League table. However, it will be very difficult for this to happen. In the summer, Aston Villa struggled to make signings until Jacob Ramsey joined Newcastle United, a move that was influenced by the club's PSR position.

I think it's not a priority for Newcastle bringing in a striker right now. But, I think any club will have to be sitting up and taking notice of Thiago's superb form for Brentford this season. So, that's why he's been linked with some of these clubs but he's under contract until 2029. Brentford are under no pressure to sell him.
