Di Maria to join Tottenham?
Jose Mourinho is reportedly plotting a reunion with Angel Di Maria. The pair previously worked with each other at Real Madrid between 2010 and 2013. And with Di Maria out of contract at Paris Saint-Germain in the summer, the Tottenham boss has made his move.

Musacchio to swap AC Milan for Lazio
The 30-year-old has fallen completely out of favor under Stefano Pioli, despite recovering from an ankle injury. He has made just two appearances across all competitions this season. Therefore, with this in mind, a move to Lazio is on the table.
Mateo Musacchio is set to undergo a medical on Wednesday in the Italian capital to put an end to his three-and-a-half-year spell with AC Milan. [Calciomercato]
Arsenal plot to scupper Barcelona-Garcia reunion
Pep Guardiola has already thrown in the towel in his bid to keep Eric Garcia. The Manchester City center-back’s contract will expire in the summer and a free transfer back to Barcelona beckons – at least that’s what we thought anyway…
It turns out Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta hopes to pinch Garcia from right under the Barcelona board’s noses. [Mundo Deportivo via Express]
Malcuit set for Napoli exit
Injury problems, along with a big suspension in the Europa League, have restricted Kevin Malcuit to just two appearances in Serie A. The right-back is now set to leave Napoli in search of regular football.
His next destination will be Fiorentina on a loan deal until the end of the season. An agreement has been reached, with Malcuit set to undergo a medical on Wednesday to complete the transfer. [Sky Italia via Football Italia]

Dele Alli remains on Paris Saint-Germain’s radar for a possible January loan move. Therefore, Spurs are considering a potential move for Florian Neuhaus from Bundesliga side Borussia Monchengladbach.
The 23-year-old has developed into a key member of the Gladbach squad and still has another three years on his contract. [Mirror]
