Today’s biggest transfer stories

Julián Alvarez is reportedly considering leaving Atlético Madrid with Barcelona and Liverpool interested in his signature. The 25-year-old has been excellent for Diego Simeone’s men since joining from Manchester City but he’s grown frustrated by their inability to challenge for major honours.

Tottenham Hotspur could revive their interest in Savinho in January. Spurs had a bid rejected by Man City for the Brazilian international during the summer transfer window but his minutes have been limited at the start of the season.

Chelsea are amongst the clubs monitoring Man City’s Nico O’Reilly. The versatile 20-year-old also has interest from Leeds United, Lyon and Bayer Leverkusen but he’s been utilised regularly by Pep Guardiola this season.
