Sanchez transfer curveball

07:00: Liverpool are reportedly plotting a stunning January swoop for Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez.

Manchester United are the frontrunners to sign him, and Sunday Express Sport understands the club have given the Chilean a deadline to let them know whether or not he wants to join.

Manchester City are also keen on a move, however they are refusing to meet the Gunners’ £35million valuation of the player.

But now according to the Sunday Mirror, Liverpool have set their sights on a deal.

The report suggests Klopp is in ongoing discussions with the club’s owners FSG to see if there is a way they can bid for Sanchez.

Arsenal to bid for Sanchez replacement this week 

06:30: Arsenal will move swiftly to secure the services of Malcom from Bordeaux this week should Alexis Sanchez leave the club, according to reports.

Sanchez looks increasingly likely to leave the Emirates sooner rather than later.

The question though remains at where he will end up with both Manchester United and Manchester City keen to sign him.

For Arsenal though they have already switched their focus on bringing in a replacement for their star forward.

According to the Daily Mail, the Gunners are preparing a £35million bid to sign Malcom this upcoming week.

Walcott advice

06:00: Everton boss Sam Allardyce is the perfect manager to get the best out of Arsenal star Theo Walcott, claims BT Sport pundit Rio Ferdinand.

Ferdinand says Walcott needs a manager like Allardyce to give him the confidence and has backed a move to Goodison Park.

“I think he needs a new lease of life, to go somewhere else and really put a marker down,” Ferdinand said on BT Sport.

“I think a manager like Allardyce, who you can see has got the confidence and belief in him, he needs someone like that in his career right at this moment.”
