🔗 Share this article From Marc Guéhi to Kenan Yildiz – Who Are Set to Be Making a Switch in the January Transfer Window? The January transfer market is typically a period of feverish rumour and potential big-money moves. Numerous prominent players are being linked with transfers away from their present teams. This article explores a selection of the key names who are poised to be changing clubs this month. Antoine Semenyo Despite Ghana's failure to reach the AFCON, which has left the forward available, reports suggest a significant move is close. The Bournemouth attacker has a contract with a sizeable buy-out clause active for a short window in early January. Latest reports suggest the Premier League champions have emerged as his signature. Former interested parties such as Tottenham and Chelsea are said to have turned their attention to other targets, potentially opening the door for clubs like Manchester United or Liverpool to attempt a last-minute bid. M. Guéhi The English defender has continued to impress for Palace this season a previous move to Liverpool collapsing. With his contract set to run out in the close season, this represents the club's final chance to secure a fee for their skipper. A host of elite clubs, such as City and several European giants including Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Bayern Munich, reportedly be interested. Yet, a January departure is considered unlikely, especially given the coach's reliance on the player. B. Johnson The Wales winger has found first-team minutes limited at Tottenham this campaign. Despite finishing as the side's top scorer last season, he has started only a small number of Premier League matches. Reports suggest the London outfit would be willing to consider a sale for the right price, believed to be in the around £40 million. Bournemouth are currently at the front of the queue, with Crystal Palace, Aston Villa, and Brentford also credited with an interest. Tottenham rate the Welsh international at approximately forty million pounds. R. Neves The Portuguese playmaker could be set for a return to the Premier League after a period in the Saudi Pro League. Still only twenty-eight, while his agreement ending in the summer of 2026, he is a potential opportunity. Teams like Manchester United and Liverpool are connected to the former Wolves man. Furthermore, there are rumours from Spanish media that he is willing to accept a pay cut for a move to Real Madrid. M. ter Stegen This experienced Germany goalkeeper is now as third-choice at Barça under the coach Hansi Flick. After fallen out of favour and had surgery, a January exit seems increasingly probable. Aston Villa were once linked as a potential suitor, but that move currently seems off. Instead, interest from Turkey and Saudi Arabia are thought to be expressing interest in the keeper. Ivan Toney The proven England centre-forward has kept scoring frequently in Saudi Arabia. Coming back to the Premier League could enhance his fading hopes of making the England World Cup. But, securing a deal poses major challenges. His current club do not wish to part with him, and his alleged enormous salary make any agreement complicated. Tottenham, Manchester United, and Everton are all mentioned as interested parties. The striker was instrumental as his Saudi club to victory in the Saudi Super Cup final. Conor Gallagher This dynamic midfielder drew considerable interest in the summer but stayed at Atlético Madrid. With few starting appearances in Spain this season, he is eager to find more minutes ahead of the World Cup. United are heavily connected, and a return to Selhurst Park, a club he shone on a temporary deal, remains a possibility, although wage constraints could prove a stumbling block. H. Elliott Despite starring and being named the best player award at the U21 Euros last summer, the young midfielder has found it tough for minutes during his loan spell at Aston Villa. The manager has confirmed the loan move will not be made permanent. Due to FIFA regulations regarding playing for two clubs in a season, a move back to Liverpool before next season seems to be the sole viable solution. Kenan Yildiz The highly-rated Turkish forward is in excellent form for Juventus this term. As his current contract nearing its end, a host of Premier League clubs – such as Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Tottenham – are monitoring the situation. The Turin club are desperate to secure the 20-year-old to a new long-term agreement but are in a battle to keep one of Europe's most promising prospects. K. Smit This much-admired Netherlands teenage midfielder has drawn comparisons to a Belgian superstar for his style of play. After impressing at the Under-19 European Championship, he has broken into the AZ Alkmaar first team. This teenager is heavily expected to make a big-money move this month. Newcastle are believed to be frontrunners, but could face stiff competition from the Spanish champions for a signing valued at around twenty-two million pounds.
