Man Utd not ready to let go of Williams.

Newcastle United have been forced to drop their interest in Brandon Williams with Manchester United unwilling to let the fullback leave in January.

The 20-year-old has struggled for game time, making just one Premier League appearance this term.

Real Madrid target Juventus defender.

Merih Demiral has emerged on the radar of Real Madrid with the club keen on bolstering their defense.

The 22-year-old center-back has struggled for regular game time at Juventus this season, and the La Liga champions plan on using his lack of action to their advantage in signing him.

Liverpool & Barcelona linked with stunning swap.

Liverpool are interested in FC Barcelona’s Antoine Griezmann and are open to the possibility of exchanging him with Sadio Mane.

Griezmann is unhappy with his situation at Camp Nou as he does not feel like an important player under Ronald Koeman, and could seek an exit.

Jurgen Klopp is an admirer of the World Cup winner and would love to have him in his squad.

The Reds, however, are in a difficult financial situation and would not be able to fund the transfer. Therefore, they are willing to offer Mane in exchange, and Barcelona are willing to consider this option. [Diario Gol]
