Sky Sports meanwhile claims Noah Ajayi (17) is close to signing his first professional contract at Manchester United. For the next wave of targets, CaughtOffside says Luca Weinhandl is being tracked by several Premier League sides: the Austrian midfielder at Sturm Graz could be available for around £17m.

Liverpool are also mentioned in the January rumour mill, with Football Insider saying they are considering a move for 22-year-old Monaco and Senegal midfielder Lamine Camara, after he missed out on a deadline-day transfer to Chelsea. Elsewhere, Calciomercato (in Italian) adds Tottenham to the list of clubs linked with Mauro Icardi, who is available as a free agent after leaving Galatasaray in July.

Finally, The Standard reports that English striker Vincent Joseph has confirmed he is leaving Liverpool, with the expectation that he will join Arsenal. BBC Sport presents all of this as Thursday’s market gossip, with multiple press sources cited.
