Today’s Leading Transfer Stories
Manchester United’s manager, Ruben Amorim, is reportedly set to prevent 20-year-old England midfielder Kobbie Mainoo from leaving the club in January, despite interest from Napoli, Chelsea, and Bayern Munich, as Mainoo has yet to start a Premier League game this season.
Meanwhile, Tottenham is reportedly willing to wait until next summer to secure the signing of Brighton’s 25-year-old Dutch center-back Jan Paul van Hecke, who currently holds a market value of €35 million.
The Spurs are also contemplating the sale of 24-year-old Welsh winger Brennan Johnson, who has drawn interest from Crystal Palace but has struggled to secure a regular spot in the team under Thomas Frank’s management.
