However, his club Genoa want £26million.

Napoli are also keeping tabs on the player.

“One thing is what we need and another is what we can do. What we can do is stick behind those players and make sure we stick behind those players.

He added: “Yeah, it is frustrating but what can we do. I can’t tell them play bad, don’t shoot, and score and own goal … What I beg from the supporters is that they are behind the team.

“Stick behind the team, they are incredibly good. They deserve the support with their attitude.”

Dragusin chase

Tottenham could also add Radu Dragusin to their ranks in this January transfer window.

Mbappe latest

Kylian Mbappe is reportedly ready to consider a free transfer to the Premier League - as frustrations grow with Real Madrid's pursuit.

The French sensation, 25, has entered the final six months of his Paris Saint-Germain contract.

And he is expected to leave the Ligue 1 giants at the end of the season.

Real Madrid remain desperate to land the World Cup winner - after failed attempts in 2017 and again in 2022.

However, The Times state Real have placed a January deadline on Mbappe signing a pre-contract agreement for the 2024-25 season to secure his services.

But the report adds the forward is unimpressed by Los Blancos' approach to the latest negotiations - and he has told friends he will not be forced into making a premature decision.

The Times adds that Mbappe wants to explore his other options first.

And that includes moving to England, with Liverpool a genuine possible destination.

Todibo blow

The Nice centre back is a target for Man Utd and Tottenham.

But now the Premier League giants face competition from Italians AC Milan, say RMC Sport.

However, the story adds that Todibo is not expected to move in the January transfer window.

Felix's mega deal

Former Chelsea star Joao Felix has increased his salary by 900 per cent after signing a new Barcelona contract.

The forward signed for Barca on loan from Atletico Madrid in the summer.

He was initially given a salary of just £344,440 a year due to Barcelona's financial struggles, with Felix happy to accept the wage cut to push through the deal.

Felix, 24, described his move to the Nou Camp as a "dream" and his commitment has now been rewarded with a lucrative new deal.

LaLiga president Javier Tebas revealed they had "multiplied the remuneration agreed between Felix and Barcelona by 10, for Fair Play purposes".

That means the Portuguese could now be earning up to £3,444,400 per year, or £66,000 a week.

Sancho blow

Jadon Sancho appeared to be set for a move to Borussia Dortmund on loan.

However his Man Utd exile might be on hold.

Sky Sports understand the Red Devils want a significant fee upfront, as well as his wages paid.

He will have to wait that little bit longer for a Bundesliga return.

Lingard future

Former Manchester United midfielder Jesse Lingard has reportedly offered himself to Barcelona.

The 31-year-old has been a free agent since leaving Nottingham Forest in June.

He briefly trained with Saudi Pro League side Al-Ettifaq last year, but was not offered a contract.

Lingard has since been training in Dubai while searching for another club.

And according to Spanish outlet Sport, he recently offered himself to Barcelona.

The former England star is hopeful that a move to the Nou Camp will help reignite his career.

Kylian Mbappe is unimpressed by Real Madrid's attempts to get him to sign a pre-contract this month.

Spurs 'at final stages' of Dragusin deal

They hope to conclude the deal by next week.

PSG would be willing to let the player go if they can sign a replacement.

Mbappe has until mid-January to decide Madrid move

Rea Madrid have imposed a deadline of the middle of January on their move for Kylian Mbappe - according to The Athletic.

Mbappe has received Madrdid's offer - which is lower than in 2022 due to Madrid's financial struggles.

He would still be the highest paid player at the club, if he was to accept however.

Madrid tried to sign Mbappe in the summers of 2021 and 2022.

Arteta unlikely to recall Kieran Tierney

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is unlikely to recall Kieran Tierney from his loan at Real Sociedad - according to Football Insider.

There had been sepculation that Tierney would be recalled after an injury to Oleksandr Zinchenko.

Takehiro Tomiyasu's call-up to the Asia Cup with Japan also leaves The Gunners short in defence.

United want to sell Casemiro

INEOS want to sell Casemiro in order to help balance their wages according to Alan Nixon.

The midfielder has attracted interest from Saudi sides.

Any deal will have to factor in Casemiro's high wages, making a sale to the Gulf state more likely.

Still no agreement on Sancho loan

There is still no agreement on the loan of Jadon Sancho to Borussia Dortmund, according to Florian Plettenburg.

The winger looked to be nearing a move to Germany but the final details are still to be sorted out.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe was reportedly reluctant to include a buy option due to Sancho's current low market value.

Chelsea could move for Henderson

Chelsea could launch a move for Jordan Henderson - who is reportedly unhappy in Saudi Arabia.

Football London report the England midfielder has told friends that he feels unsettled in the Gulf State and wants a move back to the Premier League.

If The Blues do move for Henderson - it would open the door for Conor Gallagher to leave the club.

Spurs are the current favourites to sign Gallagher.

Wolves in for Ings

Wolves are looking at bringing West Ham striker Danny Ings in on loan, according to The Telegraph.

The former Aston Villa and Southampton man has struggled for goals since joining West Ham in the summer of 2022.

Wolves see him as a good depth option, particularly while Hwang Hee Chan is away for the Asia Cup.

Tottenham make official bid for Dragusin

Tottenham have made an official bid of £22.3million for Radu Dragusin, according to Corriere Dello Sport.

Spurs have been linked with the Genoa centre-back extensively throughout January but have been yet to make an official bid until now.

They have focused on the Timo Werner deal in recent days but with that now looking done have turned their attentions back to the defender.

Timo Werner latest

Timo Werner is flying to London to complete his loan transfer to Tottenham today, according to reports in Germany.

Werner moves from Leipzig to return to the Premier League after his spell with Chelsea.

Big early coup in the window for Ange Postecoglou's Spurs.

Oscar Zambrano latest

Ecuadorian midfielder Oscar Zambrano’s move to the Premier League is stalling over a row about his slice of the deal.

Bournemouth are keen on the young talent while Luton Town have been chasing him for months.

Both clubs are willing to pay £5.5million to buy him from Ecuador’s LDU Quito.

However, the 19-year-old is due 15 per cent of the sale — and is being asked to waive that to get his dream move.

Zambrano’s camp think they are entitled to the cash and will not budge.

Luton do not want to make up the loss and the Cherries will have to do the same.
