Atletico Madrid winger Thomas Lemar has again been linked with a move to Premier League giants Arsenal after failing to live up to his price tag in the Spanish La Liga.

According to the various media reports on the European continent, Thomas Lemar is a target for the Gunners as well as other European sides like Tottenham Hotspur and French champions Paris Saint Germain (PSG).

The French World Cup winner has neither scored or assisted any goal in the Spanish La Liga this season despite making 15 appearances.

Thomas Lemar also had no goal output in six group stage games in the Champions League last year.

Atletico Madrid signed him from AS Monaco at the start of the last campaign in a transfer said to be worth around £51.5m.

He came close to signing for the Gunners just months before his Atletico Madrid transfer.

Lemar almost joined Arsenal in the summer of 2017 but the transfer didn’t go through as AS Monaco were unable to sign a replacement in time before that summer’s transfer window ended.

The French winger was seen as a like-for-like signing to replace Alexis Sanchez that summer after Manchester City made a bid to sign the Chilean international.

Possible Arsenal XI with Lemar: Bernd Leno; Hector Bellerin, David Luiz, Pablo Mari, Sead Kolasinac; Lucas Torreira, Granit Xhaka, Mesut Ozil, Thomas Lemar, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Gabriel Martinelli.

Three-time European champions Manchester United are plotting a move for Leicester City star Ben Chilwell ahead of this summer according to the widespread media reports in the United Kingdom (UK).

The Metro claimed that the Red Devils have concluded plans to make a summer bid for Ben Chilwell who’s the first choice left-back for the England national team.

Ben Chilwell is on course to be a part of the 23-man England squad to the European Championships this summer.

He has scored one goal and also provided three assists for his team in 19 Premier League matches this term.

Manchester City were interested in signing Ben Chilwell previously but the Premier League champions were not willing to pay the over £50m asking price from the Foxes.

Manchester United have a good relationship with Leicester City and the Red Devils could capitalize on that to secure the signing of Three Lions of England player Ben Chilwell.

The Red Devils signed Harry Maguire from Leicester City at the start of this season in a deal that made him the most expensive defender in the history of the game.

Leicester City received £80m for the transfer of the new Manchester United skipper.

Harry Maguire is a key member of the England squad these days.

Premier League leaders Liverpool have been ruthless in the English top-flight this season and that ruthlessness could be worse for their opponents if they are able to pull off a deal for RB Leipzig star Timo Werner who has been in red-hot form for his German Bundesliga outfit since last summer.

Liverpool have 16 more points than nearest challengers and Premier League champions Manchester City at the league summit after winning 22 games from 23 Premier League outings.

The Reds are unbeaten in the league this season and they also have a game at hand over the teams around them.

Timo Werner is said to be a key transfer target for Liverpool though a move in this January transfer window is largely unlikely.

The 23-year-old petite German international could leave RB Leipzig for Liverpool in the summer as that period is more feasible with the player reluctant to leave his current club in the middle of the season.

Recent reports have claimed that the player has agreed a deal for him to join Liverpool this summer ahead of Chelsea who are also in the mix to sign him.

Liverpool XI with Werner: Alisson Becker; Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joe Gomez, Virgil Van Dijk, Andy Robertson; Jordan Henderson, Fabinho; Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino; Timo Werner.

Lille midfielder Boubakary Soumare is one of the most wanted players in the present January window.

The 20-year-old French player is a big target for two of the best Premier League teams namely Chelsea and Manchester United.

On the transfer rumours linking Boubakary Soumare with an exit from Lille, manager Christopher Galtier hinted that the player could leave the French Ligue 1 club this month.

Lille boss Galtier addressed the Soumare Transfer reports during his pre-match press conference for the PSG clash in the league.

Galtier and his Lille players were beaten 2-0 by French champions and league leaders Paris Saint Germain (PSG) at home on Sunday night.

Brazilian international Neymar scored twice as PSG secured victory at the home of Lille thereby extending their lead at the top of the table to ten points.

Boubakary Soumare played 78 minutes of that game before he was replaced by former Blues striker Loic Remy.

Chelsea manager Frank Lampard wants to boost his squad as the business end of the season approaches and Boubakary Soumare is a possible addition for him though the Red Devils are also interested.

Chelsea XI: Kepa Arrizabalaga; Reece James, Kurt Zouma, Antonio Rudiger, Cesar Azpilicueta; Boubakary Soumare, N’Golo Kante, Mason Mount; Willian, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Tammy Abraham.

Sporting Lisbon player Bruno Fernandes is confident that the much awaited transfer to Manchester United will happen before the winter transfer window closes later this week.

The player has already sealed his salary package with the Red Devils.

According to The Sun, Bruno Fernandes will earn £120,000 on a weekly basis at Manchester United if the Red Devils are able to agree a transfer fee with Sporting Lisbon for his move to Old Trafford.

The latest report on the Bruno Fernandes transfer to Manchester United from Portuguese newspaper O Jogo revealed that the Red Devils have made a new bid of £59m for the Portuguese international player.

The new Manchester United offer will see them pay an initial fee of £47m for the player plus £12m in add-ons though the valuation of the midfielder is £60m as per Sporting Lisbon.

Bruno Fernandes was linked with Manchester United last summer but the Red Devils were unable to pull through a move for the player who’s a goalscoring midfielder for both club and country.

Inter Milan midfielder Mattias Vecino could still stay at the Italian Serie A club despite the reports of a possible transfer to Premier League.

Premier League clubs, Everton and Manchester United have both been linked with the Uruguayan international.

Inter Milan CEO, Beppe Marotta spoke to DAZN about Mattias Vecino and the transfer rumours linking him with a move to England.

According to him, its not certain that Mattias Vecino would be leaving Inter Milan before the end of this month.

Marotta stated that the imminent arrival of Christian Eriksen from Tottenham Hotspur doesn’t necessarily mean an exit for Mattias Vecino as the club would still evaluate their squad to determine whether or not players would be leaving before the transfer window ends on January 31.

Christian Eriksen will have his Inter Milan medical this week after Tottenham Hotspur agreed a deal with the Nerazzuri for his transfer.

Inter Milan will pay £17m for Danish international playmaker Christian Eriksen who has six months remaining on his Spurs deal.

Christian Eriksen has spent almost seven years at Tottenham Hotspur since his transfer from Dutch Eredivisie champions Ajax Amsterdam in the summer of 2013 for a fee believed to be around £13m.

Manchester United have maintained their stance on Chris Smalling according to the report from popular British media outlet Daily Mirror.

Chris Smalling signed for AS Roma on loan last summer after the signing of Harry Maguire from fellow Premier League club Leicester City.

Harry Maguire signed for Manchester United in an £80m deal to make him the most expensive defender ever and his transfer led to the exit of Chris Smalling from Manchester United on a season-long loan deal to AS Roma.

Chris Smalling has been one of the best central defenders in the Italian Serie A this season and the form of the 30-year-old has propelled his new club to the top four.
