Red Devils
* Bakayoko in the sights of a Premier League club.- Newcastle United would consider making an offer in January for the Belgian international winger PSV Eindhoven Johan Bakayokoaccording to The Telegraph (https://tinyurl.com/ydp3hu4s).
An offer of around 41 million pounds sterling (50 million euros) for the winger who had been approached by the Bayern Munich, Arsenal et Liverpool last summer.
The Magpies had to fall back on the ex-Anderlecht player after giving up Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford) et Antoine Semenyo (Bournemouth), valued at between 50 and 60 million pounds (60 to 70 million euros), and therefore too expensive in their eyes.
It remains to be seen whether they will have more chance of obtaining an agreement for Bakayoko.
Which seems far from certain given that on the one hand the PSV will not let one of its executives go so easily, and that Newcastle must also remain vigilant – and therefore sell (Kieran Trippier ? Miguel Almiron ? Harvey Barnes ?), in advance – concerning its expenses, in order to avoid problems with the rules of Financial Fair Play.
The Red Devil (21 years old, 18 caps, 1 goal) is worth 45 million euros, according to Transfer market.

The Danish club, which recruited bathroom has B.1893 for only 135,000 euros at the start of the year, demands more money to let his striker, author of 2 goals and 5 assists in 17 appearances this season, leave. Relatively modest stats, therefore
Time will tell if the Unionists will be ready to make a financial effort to sign the young center forward.
The Union, which has many attackers, but no real scorer, at its core, should in any case be active on the transfer market in January.
* Direction Serie A, for the Montenegrin from Standard who is fed up.-
Standard’s Montenegrin winger Viktor Djukanovic (20 years old) has only been allowed 62 minutes of play since the start of the season.
He therefore logically wants to return to Hammarbyunder these conditions, but to then be lent to Empoli in the process, according to Football channel.
For the moment, nothing has been decided yet, but it is obvious that the Montenegrin will not agree to spend six additional months on the bench. Standard.

From this winter or later, as hoped Nicky Hayenbut also like… Thiagobefore his departure to Brentford.
Discussions are already underway with certain English and German clubs interested in the Ecuadorian international defender (4 selections), according to The Newspaper (https://tinyurl.com/2ef4sp4a).
The Club Brugge hopes to touch around thirty million, but the player would only be worth nine, according to Transfer market.

* The Antwerp club negotiates a loan with Fenerbahce.- The Beerschot reportedly started discussions for a possible loan of the young Turkish defensive midfielder Bartug Elmaz (21 years old), currently under contract with Fenerbahce until 2026.
With only three appearances this season, including two in the SüperLig and one in the Champions League, Bartug Elmaz struggling to establish itself in a competitive workforce.
However, its performances suggest an interesting potential, which has not escaped Beerschot.

The Anderlecht player loaned to Mons. The 19-year-old right-handed Belgian midfielder Lars Montegnies of the RSCA Futures constitutes the first winter reinforcement of the RAEC Mons.
Trained to Kortrijkhe was fielded three times in the Jupiler Pro League last season.
Former Belgian U19 international (10 caps), he continued his career at RSCA Futures (D1B), where his playing time has however decreased, and specifically hopes to find some at Tondreau, he who has failed to become a key element of Jelle Coen’s team this season.

“Belgian and promising, Lars has everything to grow alongside us”, also underlines Hubert Ewbankthe president of RAEC Mons on the page Facebook of the club at the top of D1 ACFF (https://tinyurl.com/mrzab7d9).
Does this arrival herald departures from January? We think of Teddy Chevalier or Gilian Dupirewho have not had much playing time in recent weeks, or even perhaps Alessandro Cordarowhich was returned to P2.
Abroad
* Even he is concerned by the big laundry at Man Utd.- After separating fromErik ten Hag in October, and the sports director Dan Ashworth this week, Manchester United would consider letting a few players go as well.
To start, the Red Devils want to get rid of Christian Eriksen et Antony.
These two players can even leave as early as January.
According to information from German journalist Florian Plettenberg, Marcus Rashford would also be authorized to leave ManU from January, if a good offer arrives.
Definitely a surprise, because Rashford is a child of the club and a rather successful player, even if he is having a little more difficulty this season (7 goals and 3 assists in 23 matches).
Still according to this same source, the annual salary of Rashford (18.24 million euros) would weigh too heavily on the club’s finances.
ManU would therefore like to remove his number 10 in order to relieve himself of a burden within the framework of financial fair play.
This would also allow the club to have more room to maneuver on the transfer market.
Marcus Rashford has an overall record of 138 goals and 67 assists in 425 matches in the Mancunian jersey since his debut during the 2015-2016 season.
It is worth 60 million euros according to Transfer market.
