Edinson Cavani hands in a transfer request

According to Sky Sports, PSG's sporting director has confirmed that Edinson Cavani handed in a transfer request. His contract expires in the summer, but he's pressing for a move this window.

PSG have rejected a bid from Atletico Madrid so far, as they deemed it inadequate. Leonardo said:

"We've always said the same thing. We were hoping he would stay with the club, but today (Sunday) he asked to leave..."

Edinson Cavani open to a January move to Manchester United

Edinson Cavani is looking to leave PSG this winter, and he's already been linked with Chelsea and Atletico Madrid. The latest entry in the race is Manchester United.

Manchester Evening News understands that the Uruguayan is open to a switch to Man Utd this winter. However, PSG requires a fee of £25 million.

United are in dire need of a striker following the injury sustained by Marcus Rashford.

Reinier pens his Real Madrid contract

Brazilian sensation Reinier has signed a contract with Real Madrid, according to Fabrizio Romano.

The starlet who has been compared to former Real Madrid player Kaka, will join the club's stellar cast of young Brazilians which includes Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo.

Manchester United has no recall option for Alexis Sanchez

It's been reported by Standard that Manchester United didn't include a recall option in the loan deal for Alexis Sanchez to Inter Milan.

Such a clause would have been useful at this point in time, given that the Old Trafford outfit currently has an injury crisis upfront, with Marcus Rashford set to be out of action for some time.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's squad is very thin at the moment, with Sanchez and Romelu Lukaku not replaced in the summer.

Frank Lampard hints at interest in Edinson Cavani

In a recent press conference, Chelsea's manager Frank Lampard talked about a possible move for PSG's want-away forward Edinson Cavani. The Blues legend stated:

"The idea of bringing in experience is something I'm certainly not absolutely looking away from. Because sometimes the young players need a little bit of help, and if that's the case then that may help us."

Chelsea are currently pushing to qualify for the Champions League, and are looking to bring in reinforcements this winter to boost their efforts.

Chelsea and Inter Milan agree loan move for Victor Moses

The Antonio Conte revolution continues at Inter Milan, with the Italian club reportedly agreeing on a loan move for Chelsea's Victor Moses.

According to Italian journalist Nicolo Schira, the Nigerian will join on loan till the summer, with an option to purchase outright for €10 million.

Pedro persistently offered to Barcelona

According to Mundo Deportivo, Chelsea have repeatedly offered estranged winger Pedro to his former club Barcelona.

The Spaniard has struggled for minutes under Frank Lampard, so Chelsea are reportedly looking to offload him to his boyhood club.

Pedro has made no secret of his desire to return to the Camp Nou before he hangs up his boots, and with Luis Suarez out for some time, he may get his wish sooner than expected.

Manchester City joins the race for Bruno Fernandes

Portuguese outlet Correio da Manha understands that Manchester City has joined the soap opera-like race to bring Bruno Fernandes to Manchester.

With Manchester United endlessly haggling over a fee with Sporting CP, it's understood that Pep Guardiola is ready to sanction a €100 million move in the summer.

Boubakary Soumare denies Premier League move

According to L 'Equipe, reported Chelsea and Manchester United target Boubakary Soumare has said he won't be swapping teams this winter. He was quoted as saying:

"I want to do a full season, yes. I feel good, my team-mates are helping me. It is not time to leave. I don't want to leave with regrets..."

A bidding war between Man Utd and Chelsea for his services had been mooted in recent times, but it seems the battle is set to happen in the summer instead.

PSG plot to sign Pep Guardiola

According to Express, French behemoths Paris Saint-Germain are looking to make Pep Guardiola an offer he can't refuse to tempt him into a switch to the French capital as their next manager.

Guardiola's current Manchester City deal runs out in 2021, and the Spaniard has stressed recently that he has no intention of cutting short his time in the blue half of Manchester prematurely. However, PSG see Guardiola as an ideal replacement for current boss Thomas Tuchel should they part ways.
