Premier League transfer news: Eriksen to stay at Tottenham, Chelsea consider Eden Hazard gone as they target €120 million La Liga superstar as his replacement and more – January 10, 2019

Hello and welcome to the Premier League latest transfer news and rumours of the day! Here are the top stories surrounding the Premier League today!

#5 Advises to Callum Hudson-Odoi

Callum Hudson-Odoi seems to be the only thing talked about at the Stamford Bridge. The youngster has interest from Bayern Munich and he is perhaps seriously considering it given that he isn’t getting adequate playing time at Chelsea.

However, club legend Frank Lampard believes that the youngster should stay at Chelsea because it is a “great club” where he can earn opportunities to play as he has in recent games.

“Being close to Chelsea, I want him to stay there. It is a great club, a fantastic club,” Lampard was quoted as saying.

“He needs to stay there and work hard to get chances to play in the team.

“He has done that recently and he has played, and done very well in the last couple of games.”

The former midfielder hopes that the youngster keeps getting chances to display his worth.

“Hopefully we will see more of that. I think it is a great opportunity for him to do that.”

Meanwhile, Chelsea left-back Marcos Alonso has stated that Hudson-Odoi should be more patient and stick with the Blues and fight for a place in the team. He also added that the decision to stay or leave is up to the young star.

The Spaniard said: “He is a good player, but he is very young. He needs to have patience and to be hungry and fight for a place in this team.

“That is all he needs to do, he has all the conditions to be a great player, now it is up to him to fight for a place here or try to find more minutes somewhere else.

#4 Chelsea advised to sign Wilson

A good fit for Chelsea?

BBC Sports pundit Dion Dublin has stated that the Blue should make an attempt to sign Bournemouth striker Callum Wilson. The Londoners have been linked with quite a few strikers of late and Dublin believes that the Englishman is a perfect fit.

When asked whether the 26-year-old is worth £50 million, Dublin claimed that he is worth the dough since he is someone who would make Chelsea a stronger team with his poaching skills.

“Yes, he is. Wilson has all the attributes to make them a better side going forward, he is a more out-and-out forward than what they have at present,” Dion Dublin said.

Speaking of Morata, Dublin stated that the Spaniard isn’t really a strong striker.

“Morata seems to have a soft underbelly, he likes a tap-in but does not really like to go through the pain barrier to score goals.”

#3 Emery reveals Arsenal’s constraints

Arsenal are working on a tight budget

Arsenal manager Unai Emery has revealed that the Gunners can’t sign anyone on a permanent deal to financial restrictions. The Londoners have been linked with Denis Suarez for a while now and it seems as though it could be a loan deal.

Emery admitted that the club can only sign players on a loan basis. When asked about the situation of Suarez, he revealed that he doesn’t know much apart from the fact that the club are working on bringing players that can help them instantly after coming.

“We can’t sign with payment for one player,” said Arsenal’s head coach. “We can only loan players.

"I don’t know his situation now. We can only sign players later on. I know the club is working on possibilities of which players can help us with big performances like we need now."

#2 West Ham

Arnautovic to leave?

Manuel Pellegrini has denied claims that link superstar Marko Arnautovic out of the club. Arnautovic has long been linked with a move to a top club but the former Real Madrid boss believes that while many clubs might covet him, he is still at West Ham and they will do everything to keep him.

“They are rumours. We know Marko is a very good player so maybe a lot of clubs will want him to play for their team, but at the moment he is a West Ham player and we want to keep him,” Pellegrini said.

“I think Marko and all the other players involved in rumours have their heads here and want to continue playing the way they are doing so far.”

Meanwhile, according to Daily Mail, Everton midfielder James McCarthy has interest from West Ham. However, the Hammers aren’t the only admirers he has as Bournemouth and Fulham are the other Premier League teams interested in him.

#1 London

Asensio wanted by Chelsea

There is a lot of news regarding Chelsea in the rumour mill, isn’t it? We might as well name this Chelsea and some other English clubs transfer roundup. In fact, coming to think of it, today has been dominated by London clubs.

According to Don Balon, Chelsea have already conceded defeat in their bid to keep Hazard as they believe that he is as good as gone in the summer. They are, however, trying to get a replacement in the form of Marco Asensio. Real Madrid want €120 million for him but Chelsea are prepared to pay only €80 million.

Meanwhile, football.london report that Christian Eriksen is likely to sign a new deal with the north London outfit. The Dane has been stalling an extension but it seems as though he might end up staying since he is happy with the Lilywhites.
