Christmas is over and now it's time for the real Christmas. The transfer window is open again for 30 days (unless you're reading this in Spain, Italy Germany etc in which case come back on Monday)

All your favourite teams are going to be stripped to the waist brawling in the street to massively overpay some no-name Belgian winger and this is the thread to post about it. No holds barred. Verified transfer accounts are time wasters, I want to see the most baseless speculation possible. Third hand accounts that Romelu Lukaku got on the bus to Ewood Park. Post those flight logs that show Erling Haaland is flying to Manchester TODAY. Take a player's media quote completely out of context to the point that 'nah don't fancy a move this year' turns into 'I am a modern slave please get the fax machine switched on ASAP and save me'.

Ones to Watch



Newcastle United have got nice new Saudi owners and are going to be busy signing every player they possibly can to try and stay in the league. Kieran Trippier looks like he'll be the first new arrival which I think is an astute, well-judged signing that will improve them in a key position at a sensible cost. Not what you want to see at all. Do better please Newcastle.



Out of seemingly nowhere Big Rom Lukaku has decided he's had enough of getting paid a fat wedge at Chelsea and would prefer to earn a fat wedge somewhere else. He wants to go back to Inter but doesn't look likely. Expect inflammatory statements, cryptic 'fed up of all the snakes. Just me and the kids from now on' style instagram posts and an eventual boot out the door



A Christmas Day move to Bayern Munich for Raphinha turned out to be off the mark, but he's still on the market. For some reason the newly-minted Brazil international has got it into his head that he could do better than playing alongside 15 year old academy players and Tyler Roberts. Weird how that happens. Liverpool have Made Enquiries in previous windows and with the AFCON coming up wouldn't be surprised if they continue their interest. If he's still at Leeds on the 31st I will be staggered

Other Stuff
- Aubameyang might get a move from Arsenal because he's a prick and Arteta hates him
- Probably some players getting moved on at Man United as part of the Ralf system
- Everton are looking to spend to improve the squad in January because lmao of course they are it's Everton
- Leeds will sign nobody
- City might finally get around to signing England's Harry Kane but probably not because he's poo poo now
- Spurs? Maybe? Some players?
- Barca are skint but still signing players. Idk how this works I don't watch la liga it might be a rule or something
- And many more

Only one rule in this thread that we all know but in case you're new: a done deal can only be announced as such if a deal has been confirmed as done. Contracts need to be signed, people. Official club statements. If he ain't sold, then do not bold. If you say a deal has been done and it hasn't you'll be sent to transfer jail. That's it

Milan need a center back since Kjaer is out for the season and Romagnoli is poo poo and also probably leaving on a free in the summer. The rumor is either Bremer from Torino, which would be good for the right price, and an increasingly unlikely bid for Sven Botman from Lille who will 100% go somewhere else.

Kessie could probably be had for a bargain price for someone desperate enough, since it doesn’t look like he’s going to renew his contract.

This is a good deal if he’s even half as good as he was before he left Inter. I’m sure every Mediaset channel is also thrilled to have Wanda back in town.

The Insigne to Toronto thing appears to be moving forward. Given the major thing he’d be giving up is his spot in the national team and he just won a major trophy with them, I can’t hate it.

Looks like Everton have bought Nathan Patterson for £12m, rising to £16m, with a sell on clause.

He’s obviously got an incredibly high ceiling and it’s a wrench to see him go, but he wasn’t getting game time at right back with Tav, and £16m for a 20 year old who’s played around 10 games is mental Barclays money.

Still, part of ‘the model’ and now we’re gonna buy a PSG youngster and every other Dutch academy prospect who’s a bit homesick I guess.

Rafa with two new full backs as well with that Mykolenko.
