Transfer news LIVE! Chelsea want Guimaraes; Arsenal in Diomande battle; Man Utd eye Benzema; Spurs latest

Transfer news LIVE!

The January transfer window is now almost halfway through, with the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United and busy Tottenham all trying to strengthen their squads for the second half of the season. Chelsea are said to be locked in a battle with Liverpool over Newcastle midfielder Bruno Guimaraes, while they may also be about to activate the release clause of Palmeiras starlet Estevao Willian - AKA 'Messinho' - as they also keep a firm eye on Evan Ferguson at Brighton and Roma's Paulo Dybala.

Manchester United are set to open talks with Benfica over Joao Neves, with Alvaro Fernandez on his way to the Portuguese giants. Arsenal look to have been priced out of a move for Ivan Toney this month, though Getafe's Borja Mayoral could well be a more affordable striker option as the Gunners also target the likes of Joshua Zirkzee, Dusan Vlahovic, Amadou Onana, Martin Zubimendi and Jorrel Hato.

Tottenham could hand debuts to new recruits Timo Werner and Radu Dragusin against Manchester United today and already have their eyes fixed on further signings amid ongoing links to Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher, who may cost more than they expected. Follow all the latest transfer news, rumours and gossip throughout the January window live below!
