Decent player and everything, but Glen Johnson to Real Madrid? Almost as unlikely as Man City's rumoured summer bid for Luis Suarez, that. No word on a fee for the Uruguayan but one imagines Liverpool could replace him with Benfica striker Rodrigo, sign Luke Shaw for £30m and still have a few quid left over. Maybe even enough to launch a double swoop for West Ham pair Mohamed Diame and Winston Reid. Imagine.
With Fabio Coentrao approaching the final year of his contract, word is Man Utd could nab him for as little as £10m come the end of the season. The William Carvalho deal's already sorted though, and Toni Kroos could be next. They've been scouting Ezequiel Garay too, along with Chelsea. Pretty impressive, right? Take a bow sons!
Good news for Arsenal too. Bayern Munich have cooled their interest in Julian Draxler so it looks like the Gunners have got a free run at him. They're keen on Bayern striker Mario Mandzukic as well, but so are Chelsea unfortunately.
And with Diego Costa and Edinson Cavani also getting the eye, Jose Mourinho might decide to cash in on Romelu Lukaku. Everton are probably keen.
Younes Kaboul's off to Besiktas, Thomas Vermaelen to Napoli.
Let's finish up with a bidding war. Spurs, Chelsea, Manchester City and Newcastle are all competing for the affections of Red Bull Salzburg winger Sadio Mane. Lucky chap.
