Man Utd are reportedly prepared to sell Marcus Rashford in January
Premier League clubs are finalising their plans for a busier-than-usual January transfer window. Many teams are in desperate need of reinforcements after a tough start to the top-flight season.
Arsenal, Manchester City, Manchester United and Tottenham have all had relative underperformances this term. All three will need to improve their ranks if they are to drastically improve in the second half of the campaign.
Despite exceeding all expectations, Liverpool and Chelsea may benefit from an extra boost to give them an even better chance of winning the league. January has been a relatively quiet month for the Premier League’s big-hitters in recent seasons – but it seems extremely unlikely that will be the case this time around.
