Additional updates on Burnley's team roster reveal that they have acquired Joe Bevan, a 19-year-old player previously on Albion Rovers' team, who is presently competing in Scotland's fifth division.

Romaine Mundle recently joined Sunderland after signing a four-and-a-half-year deal. He transferred from Standard Liège, a team in the Belgian Pro League, and the exact amount of the transfer fee is unknown. Mundle, a winger from London who began his career with Tottenham Hotspur, spent 15 years with the team before leaving for Belgium in July 2023. His return to England was swift.

It's possible that the Sensi agreement might create a pathway for Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall to link up with Brighton. Enzo Maresca discussed the likelihood of the midfielder leaving beforehand. We'll have to wait and see.

Yet again, a Championship club has displayed absurd conduct. Sensi, a 28-year-old player who has represented Italy, is currently in his prime despite being sidelined this season. During the previous season, he played in 30 matches for Internazionale. Leicester, who are leading by a remarkable 10 points, seem unstoppable in their quest for success. It is uncertain how other teams that have been relegated and are receiving parachute payments, such as Southampton and Leeds, will fare against them.

???????? It has been reported that Stefano Sensi is set to make a trip to England today to finalize his transfer to Leicester City!

In a few hours from now, Sensi is set to travel to undergo medical examination at #LCFC.

Inter and Leicester have come to a spoken understanding regarding the cost of a permanent transfer. ???????????? pic.twitter.com/RszDqw9PHq

It appears that Matt Turner's time at Nottingham Forest may be coming to an end due to his recent error against Arsenal, which allowed Gabriel Jesus to score the first goal at the close range. Reports suggest that Forest is still in talks with Crystal Palace to acquire the services of England's goalkeeper, Sam Johnstone, despite turning down a £10 million offer earlier this week.

The football team Forest is showing interest in Matz Sels, who is 31 years old, from the club Strasbourg. Forest's proposed offer is roughly €7 million, which is similar to the amount Newcastle gave for a less experienced Sels back in 2016. During that time, Newcastle was a part of the Championship league, and Sels eventually lost his position to Karl Darlow. However, Sels has shown significant improvements lately and has become one of the most dependable players in Ligue 1 for a few years.

A special edition for the final day to submit work.

Morgan Rogers Joins Aston Villa From Middlesbrough

Although the exact cost is not publicized, it is believed to be around £15 million. Rogers became a full-time member of Middlesbrough last year and Emery has identified him as a potential addition to Villa's attacking force. Manchester City, who received approximately £1 million from Boro for Rogers last summer, will profit from a percentage of the sale.

Lyon Nears Mangala And Benrahma Signing

French team Lyon has been quite active in this transfer window as they attempt to make a double move today to acquire Orel Mangala from Nottingham Forest and Saïd Benrahma from West Ham. Mangala, who plays midfield for Belgium, will initially join Lyon on loan for €10m. The option to make the move permanent for another €15m in the summer will also be available.

Benrahma is experiencing some complications. Apparently, the Algerian winger has journeyed to France to finalize his £15m transfer, but obstacles regarding the commission fees of his agents are preventing the transfer from going through at the moment.

Fulham In Talks For Lyon's Rayan Cherki

It has been reported that Fulham are currently in discussions with Lyon regarding Rayan Cherki. The French club seems willing to part with their Under-21 forward and negotiations are still ongoing as they try to determine his value. It is believed that Cherki may go for around £35 million despite having just 18 months left on his contract. There are other Premier League clubs that have expressed interest in the player, but they are only willing to make their move during the summer.

Kylian Mbappé's mother, Fayza Lamari, represents Cherki, who was previously monitored by Chelsea. With the arrivals of Orel Mangala and Saïd Benrahma, Lyon is looking to bring their books back in order.

While you're idling away, Burnley is taking action.

Galatasaray had intended to sign Lorenz Assignon, however, Burnley appears to have secured the signing of the right back from Stade Rennais, beating the Turkish team who we are legally obliged to refer to as 'the Turkish giants'.

It appears that Serge Aurier will soon join Galatasaray after his stint with Nottingham Forest. At 31 years old, he is currently leading the Ivory Coast team in Afcon, where they have made it to the quarter-finals. It seems like joining the Turkish league has been a long-awaited career move for Aurier.

Attention all! The news has been circulating that Lorenz Assignon is very close to becoming a member of Burnley Football Club.

The agreement of a loan deal with a buy option clause has been reached and it is now time for a medical examination. This was all done on Deadline Day, the final day for transfers in the sporting world.

Galatasaray has chosen Serge Aurier as their new right back. This decision has been revealed in a social media post which displays a picture of Aurier and includes Galatasaray's official logo.

The Manchester City women's team has recruited three promising young athletes in their quest to snatch the WSL championship from current title holders and leaders, Chelsea.

Poppy Pritchard has relocated from Durham. She's a young 18-year-old striker who scored three goals for the Durham Academy team. Her impressive feat led to a win over Manchester United's Under-21s last November 2023. Additionally, she made her debut for England's Under-19s team last September and scored within the first 15 minutes of the game against Denmark. The Young Lionesses went on to win 5-0.

Tara O'Hanlon has joined the WSL team after playing for Peamount. She's a young defender who has already played for the Republic of Ireland. "I wanted to move up to the WSL after winning the league with Peamount," O'Hanlon said. "I know I'm young, but I'm ready to work hard and earn a spot on the team over the next few months."

City recently made a significant purchase by acquiring the talented 20-year-old, Laura Blindkilde Brown, from Aston Villa for a reported fee of £200,000. Blindkilde Brown has been brought in as a potential successor to City's Jill Roord, who unfortunately sustained an ACL injury last week and is considered one of women's football's leading stars.

This study requires attention.

Graham Ruthven wrote an interesting blog post discussing the possibility of Gio Reyna's resurgence with Nottingham Forest. In the past, Reyna was considered one of the most talented young players in Europe.

There are rumors that Enes Ünal might be joining Bournemouth soon. According to Fabrizio Romano, who has reported the story, Ünal has been expected to be a successful player for a decade.

Last season, the Turkish football player was doing really well for Getafe. Unfortunately, in March 2023, he had an ACL injury, and only came back to play last month. He played five times in January for Getafe but didn't score any goals. Apparently, he has something called a €40m release clause, which means that Bournemouth paying €16.5m for him seems like a good deal, but maybe there's a risk because he's been injured before. Even though there's a risk, Bournemouth still think it's a good idea. I think that maybe the Turkish player will be a substitute for Dominic Solanke for the rest of Bournemouth's season. Then, they might want him to replace Dominic if he moves to a different team in the summer for a lot of money.

Alert: Enes Ünal is set to join Bournemouth! The agreement is for an initial loan with a commitment to purchase for a total package of €16.5m.

Earlier this morning, it was disclosed that Ünal has agreed to the relocation.

It's time to get the medical and legal documents ready.

Breaking news, officially verified. ????????

The Guardian has been tracking Ünal's progress and was featured in our 2014 Next Gen series.

Back in 2013, this guy made history by scoring in the top league of Turkey at only 16 and he scored against Galatasaray while playing for Bursaspor! When he was 18, Manchester City offered him a whopping £2m to join them in 2015. Two years later, in 2017, he was scooped up by Villarreal for a price tag of £12m. Fast forward to 2020, he moved to Getafe and things have been a bit of a rollercoaster ride for him ever since.

Moving on to the topic of football transfers. We can rely on the Rumour Mill for the latest gossip.

Prior to delving too deeply into a conversation about food, it's worth noting that Dyche and Woan thoroughly enjoy takeaway curry. They possess a great deal of knowledge when it comes to perusing a menu, to say the least.

I may not have been updated on this yet but recently, I saw Sean Dyche and Vinny Samways eating breakfast at a fashionable eatery in Liverpool,” Darrien Bold writes in an email. “People are whispering about a possible £2m acquisition.”

We'll update you with further information as it becomes available. I'm not completely certain that the initial portion of the email isn't a prank. The idea of Dyche having a fancy breakfast with Vinny Samways before practice seems like something Dyche would do on a Thursday in my mind.

But during my 2021 interview with Ian Woan, who currently works as Dyche's assistant at Everton, he gave me some insight into Dyche's eating habits, which he described as quite unappetizing. Woan and Dyche used to share a flat in Whalley, Lancashire, which unfortunately had a broken kitchen.

Instead of traveling from Nottingham, Woan resides in a flat close to Dyche during the weekdays, which serves as a location for passionate conversations about picking the team.

I would never dare to contradict him in the presence of other employees, under any circumstances. However, in our dwelling, there's absolutely no hold barred. If you ever visited us, you would be tickled. Our landlord is a skilled Premier League coach, yet all he possesses are two sofas, two beds, and a large TV. I don't believe the stove operates correctly.

The description of the home that Woan, Dyche, and [Steve] Stone resided in during the early 1990s is strangely reminiscent of Nottingham. The initial dwelling was devoid of any luxuries. Stone was predominantly occupied with obtaining small denominations of currency from the pay phone. Sean, on the other hand, demonstrated a greater level of professionalism in comparison to the rest, yet still managed to enjoy MTV. During that period, I was the landlord of the premises. Things are different now, as I am aware of who is in charge.

It hasn't been revealed, but it seems that Forest's acquisition of Ribeiro could be valued at over £10m if the transfer becomes permanent.

Nottingham Forest Signs Rodrigo Ribeiro From Sporting

Nottingham Forest unveiled their acquisition of Rodrigo Ribeiro from Sporting. The youthful 18-year-old forward came to the club as a temporary loan player for the remainder of the season, with the possibility of staying long-term. According to the team:

Ribeiro is a promising forward who emerged from the lower ranks, and he made his debut for Sporting in the Champions League against Manchester City in March 2022. He was also selected as a Portugal Under-20 player, and he impressively scored six goals in nine games while helping Sporting reach the semi-finals of the Uefa Youth League in the previous season. In the current season, he has played for the club's academy team in the third tier of the Portuguese league, where he has had 10 appearances. When Ribeiro plays in Nottingham, he will wear the No. 37 shirt.

Dahoud Joins VfB Stuttgart On Loan

Dahoud has not been very successful at Brighton. The new player, Billy Gilmour, has made it difficult for him to play in the team under the coach Roberto De Zerbi. Instead, Dahoud returns to the Bundesliga where he gained fame playing for Dortmund. Meanwhile, Stuttgart is doing very well, currently in third place in the table, and Dahoud will play alongside another Albion loanee, Deniz Undav, who has already scored 12 goals in the Bundesliga this season.

The technical director of Brighton, David Weir, stated that it's a positive step for Mahmoud to join a team in the higher ranks of the Bundesliga. He added that this new team will provide him with more playing time, and they wish him success for the rest of their season.

From what I've gathered, the Wharton transfer almost fell apart last night which could have impacted new players joining Blackburn. However, it seems like the Wharton deal is now nearly finalized, so Blackburn can resume their recruitment process. #rovers #cpfc https://t.co/6oi4yBDHO1

According to the sports editor at BBC Lancashire, it appears that Blackburn has requested to have Wharton loaned back to their club for the remainder of the season. This nearly caused Palace to withdraw from the deal, but after resolving some issues, it seems that Wharton will still be a player for Palace by the end of today.

The hiccup caused a problem for Blackburn's transfer plans. They were supposed to sign Duncan McGuire, an American striker from Orlando City, for £3.2 million. He was on his way to England, but he had to turn back when it looked like the Wharton deal was going to fall through. Sheffield Wednesday is also interested in McGuire. We don't know if he arrived in England or not.

Crystal Palace is among the handful of Premier League clubs that are still very active. They have already secured the signing of Colombia right-back Daniel Muñoz from Genk, signing a three-year contract. Interestingly, only three right backs have played for Palace in the last decade- Ward, AWB, and Clyne. The club is also expected to finalize a deal of over £20 million with Blackburn for Adam Wharton. Furthermore, Ed Aarons has hinted at an exciting development- Palace's interest in Maxwel Cornet from West Ham. In my opinion, Cornet is a valuable player as long as he is fit.

It has been reported that Crystal Palace have shown keen interest in acquiring Maxwel Cornet on loan from West Ham. Negotiations are currently ongoing, however, the Ivory Coast winger is said to be keen to make the move.

Did those three transactions make for a superior deadline day compared to the one Palace experienced on this same day 10 years ago?

Scott Dann, Wayne Hennessey, Tom Ince (on loan), Joe Ledley, and Jason Puncheon (permanent) have all signed contracts.

During that period, there were simple revelations, low-quality camera phones, and pretty big replica shirts! ???? #CPFC pic.twitter.com/MEkn1cTHiX

Chelsea Seeks £5m Loan Fee For Armando Broja

The situation around Armando Broja's prospects at Chelsea is still uncertain. Even though the football club turned down a recent offer from Wolves to loan the striker, they are now open to letting him go on a regular loan without any conditions. However, possible interested parties are hesitant to pay the £5 million fee for the loan. Out of all the clubs interested in Broja, Fulham is the most probable to make a move.

On another note, Aston Villa is close to securing a signing from the Championship league. It is anticipated that the deal will be finalized today following the completion of Rogers' medical examination.

Let's talk about a football team that is extremely wealthy in their talent - Leicester City, who are currently topping the league. It's possible they may consider selling midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall if they receive a bid of roughly £30m, and it seems that Brighton could be interested in making a move for him during the January transfer window. Enzo Maresca, the manager of Leicester City, shared his thoughts on the matter.

I'm against Kiernan leaving. Can you please check with the club whether selling players is necessary? Selling players seems to be the only option we have. I don't believe Kiernan's fate rests on the outcome of this game. Kiernan belongs to Leicester and I hope he will participate in the upcoming match.

Once again, he demonstrated his deep affection for the club. It's uncertain what the future holds for him, but his love for the team is clear. He's scored 10 goals this season, which might be a first for him, but people often underestimate the significance of these achievements. This attitude is problematic and needs to change.

Alcaraz From Southampton To Juventus On Loan

It's amazing news that a player who wasn't frequently playing in Southampton has the opportunity to join one of the biggest teams in Italy, even if it's just on loan. Carlos Alcaraz is now a part of Juventus, which is a huge step for him.

Southampton's director of football, Jason Wilcox, stated that they have a variety of midfielders to choose from at the moment, and Charly has not been given many opportunities to play. As a result, they believed it was necessary for Charly to go to a top European league where he can learn invaluable skills. They are convinced that Juventus, being such a big club, will give Charly the opportunity to thrive, and that he will eventually return to Southampton as a successful player.

Southampton's depth of talent is incredibly impressive. Recently, they added David Brooks and Joe Rothwell from Bournemouth on loan, both of whom are undoubtedly talented enough to play in the Premier League. However, this also highlights the impact of parachute payments on the Championship. Despite this, Southampton is currently in third place, only one point away from Ipswich in second place, and one point ahead of Leeds in fourth.

Great job, everyone! We have reached the end of January, unless you happen to be living in Hawaii or a far-flung Pacific island, in which case you still have a few more hours to go. The completion of this month signifies three critical things. Firstly, the abstinence from alcoholic beverages, called Dry January, has ended. Secondly, it is almost time to fret over whether a card and a smooch will be enough for Valentine's Day in two weeks. And thirdly, it's the FINAL DAY for association football teams to complete their transfer dealings in January.

This month has been a bit disappointing so far, with only 10 permanent transfers made by Premier League clubs. This is a significant difference from last season's January window, where a record-breaking £843 million was spent. It could be seen as good news, though, as clubs are now more concerned about Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations and are being more sensible with their spending. However, there are still some clubs who are waiting until the last possible moment to make bids for the strikers they need.
