Hello and welcome to the Premier League latest transfer news and rumours of the day! Here are the top stories of the night surrounding the Premiership!
#5 Jarrod Bowen would be a good signing for Spurs
Tottenham Hotspur are hit with a bit of a crisis up front as Harry Kane is out injured until March and Heung-min Son is on international duty with South Korea in the ongoing AFC Asian Cup 2019.
As a result, it has been touted that Spurs are set to sign someone to replenish the attack and one among the names thrown around is of Jarrod Bowen. The Hull City striker has been in great form in the Championship, scoring 14 goals from 28 games while assisting thrice in the process.
And according to former Hull manager Phil Brown, Bowen is an excellent talent with an eye for goal and is someone with a strong attitude.
“He’s a precocious talent and he’s got an eye for goal,” Brown said. " I’ve heard a lot of people talking about him and he’s got a great attitude. A lot of the boxes to go to the next level Jarrod certainly ticks.

Brown then added that Bowen would be a superb addition to the Premier League and even though he has had his doubts over whether the youngster is ready for a top six side in the premier division of England, he thinks that the Lilywhites are a good team for a youngster like him to join.
“I would say he would be a welcome addition - and Spurs are a great example - to any Premier League squad.
“I didn’t think at this moment he was ready for the top six but certainly where Spurs are concerned they do their homework with regards to research on players so you have to say it [would] be a great decision for the player and for Tottenham.”
#4 Gattuso giveaway
AC Milan manager has revealed that Gonzalo Higuain has been left out the squad for the match against Genoa because he didn’t feel like the Argentine is in the right state of mind to play for the Rossoneri.
The Argentine has been linked with a move to Chelsea and he is said to be very close to it. And according to Gattuso, these stories have hampered the environment of the dressing room at the San Siro and he hopes to work hard in order to restore the balance.
“We spoke after the training session and I did not consider him ready for this game,” he said. “I accept his decision. Surely he could have done more and maybe we could have helped him fit in better.
“Right now we have to work with professionalism and determination, all these rumours have not helped us lately and we have to look ahead.”
#3 Unai Emery would be happy with signings
Arsenal manager Unai Emery has made his stance clear regarding the purchase of Denis Suarez. The Gunners, who beat Chelsea 2-0 in their last game, have been linked with Denis Suarez for a while now and it seems like the deal could be done in a few days’ time.
However, when Emery was asked about the status of the negotiations, he claimed that he is still waiting for the deal to be completed and he would be happy if he came since he is a player that can help the club.
He also stated that it is quite difficult to sign players in the January window.
"I know it's a difficult window for the transfer market and if a player is coming to help us I am happy," he said.
“But the club is doing that and I am going to wait.”
#2 London
West Ham United star Marko Arnautovic has long been linked with a move out of the club. And it felt like he would finally move out of West Ham in this window with a lucrative offer coming in from China.
However, it seems as though the club in China are retracing their steps as this report from talkSPORT states that interest from China has been dropped. Manuel Pellegrini will now have to find a way to reintegrate him with the squad after he seemingly waved goodbye to the Hammers fans while being subbed out against Arsenal.
Meanwhile, in what seems like a shocking claim, Chelsea have made with contact with Barcelona over a potential deal Brazil star Philippe Coutinho, according to Express.
The Brazilian has lost his indispensability status with the Catalans, leaving a lot of scope for stories like this to come up.
#1 Manchester madness
Things are going really well for the Red Devils ever since the arrival of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as the manager of the club. The Norwegian former Manchester United striker has sparked a breath of fresh air at the Old Trafford to such an extent that even Anthony Martial now wants to sign an extension with the club.
According to reports, the Old Trafford outfit are set to announce the extension of the Frenchman sometime next week. The former Monaco man is set to tie down until 2024.
Meanwhile, according to Don Balon, both Manchester United and Manchester City are interested in acquiring the signature of Brazil star Neymar, who is on the list of Real Madrid. The report adds that the superstar feels that the Galacticos are delaying in their approach to sign him.
