Strikers are in more demand than pretty little dolls from Frozen as the hunt for January bargains hots up
Celtic striker Anthony Stokes is being linked with a move from Scotland to Wales as Cardiff line up a bid for the Republic of Ireland hitman.
The Dubliner has been one of Ronny Delia’s success stories this season,scoring 7 times in 24 appearances so far.
He’s just over a year into a new three-year deal at Parkhead, but at a reported £1.5million, he would represent a good addition for the Championship side. (Daily Mail)
A man who would have a few more zeroes after his transfer fee than Mr Stokes would be Edison Cavani, and Arsene Wenger now leads the race to sign the striker.
The PSG man,who hasn’t really got on with Zlatan Ibrahimovic in his time in France, is looking to force through a move to England to link up with fellow South American Alexis Sanchez.
His fee is said to be around £50million and Arsenal fans are probably wondering why not buy some defenders instead of another striker after the loss to Stoke on Saturday. (Daily Express)
The struggles of Liverpool up front could be highlighted later if they fail to rattle the net against Basle in the Champions league but they might be about to raid West Ham for a centre-forward…and no they aren’t going back for Andy Carrol.
Diafra Sakho has been in inspired form for the Hammers so far with 8 goals and Brendan Rodgers feels his style could be the prefect antidote to the lethargic Mario Balotelli.
It’s unlikely Sam Allardici Allardyce will let him go in January but could be tempted to cash in the summer. (Daily Mail)
Three Premier league clubs look like they will all be disappointed in their pursuit of another striker in the form of Paulo Dybala.
The Argentine is highly-rated and Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United were all hoping to snap him up for around £10million
However, it now seems that he’ll be staying in South America for a while longer, as he’s due to sign a new contract at Palermo.(Daily Star)
Everybody’s favourite Frenchman Samir Nasri could be facing the exit at the Ethiad.
The 27 year old Manchester City midfielder has admitted he faces an uncertain future at the club, as City get ready to face Roma in the Champions League.
The midfielder seems to be out of favour under Manuel Pellegrini this season, and a move to France would appear more likely than another transfer to a club in the Premier League, after his sour departure from Arsenal a few seasons ago. (Daily Mail)
