Tottenham inches closer to snapping up City's Savinho
Tottenham's closing in on Man City winger Savinho while United and City battle for Forest's Anderson. Barcelona and Atletico also eyeing Chelsea's Cucurella.
Spurs are making real headway in their push to land Manchester City's Savinho, sources suggest. Negotiations between the clubs have picked up pace, and there's genuine momentum behind the move. Whether it actually goes through is another story — City aren't exactly known for letting talented wingers walk out the door cheap — but Tottenham's clearly got skin in the game here.
Down the road at Old Trafford, United are squaring up with Manchester City once again, this time over Nottingham Forest's Elliot Anderson. Both clubs fancy the midfielder, and Forest are sitting pretty knowing they've got two of the Premier League's richest teams ready to bid. Anderson's had a solid season in the City Ground, which explains the sudden interest.
Over in Spain, things are getting crowded around Marc Cucurella. Both Atletico Madrid and Barcelona have started sniffing around Chelsea's left-back, which'll be music to Todd Boehly's ears. Cucurella's been a solid option for Chelsea but hasn't quite nailed down a permanent starting spot, so a move abroad might actually suit everyone involved.
Transfer windows are basically chaos with a few weeks' notice, and this January looks no different. Clubs are scrambling to fix problems they should've sorted in the summer, and agents are making phone calls at midnight trying to stitch deals together before the deadline.
