Liverpool fans are feeling pretty miserable this morning after a 3-0 loss to Manchester United and now it seems their great rivals are about to set in chain a series of events that will see Raheem Sterling leave Anfield.

United have been looking to sign Gareth Bale for about three seasons at this stage and they may finally get their man under LVG. They missed out when he left Tottenham to go to Real Madrid but it now looks like he could be tempted back to England to join the host of superstars at Old Trafford.

Real will have bags of cash to spend if the £90million deal goes through and Raheem Sterling and Chelsea’s Eden Hazard are lined up as his replacement which to us is a pretty good deal.(Daily Star)

Manchester City are a side filled with attacking options but it looks like their next big signing will be a man to shore things up at the back.

Mats Hummels is constantly linked to a move to England and City are just the latest to join the race for the £47million rated centre-half.

He’s a great defender but can he kung-fu as well as Mangala?(Express)

Everybody’s looking for a bargain in January and the loan market is sure to be busy with players moving to perhaps get themselves a lucrative summer transfer.

Barcelona have no shortage of attacking talent at the moment and one of their young starlets might be temped with a move to London.

Munir El Haddadi is looking to gain some first-team experience and both Chelsea and Arsenal are chasing the 19-year old.

Arsenal desperately need some movement and pace up front to take the burden off Alexis Sanchez while Chelsea have 70-year old Didier Drogba and 59-year old Diego Costa as their striking options.(Express)

Wilfred Bony must be getting hampers and hampers of Christmas goodies to try and sway his mind up as to where he’ll move next as the rumours about his future get more intense.

Jamie Carragher is the latest to come out and urge Anfield chiefs to take pole position in the race to sign the Swansea hitman.

Carra feels that if Mario Balotelli is worth £16million then you can add another £10million for the Swansea man.(Express)

Manchester City are also believed to be interested in Bony but have denied that they’re going to bring a top class striker of yesteryear to the Premier League.

David Villa was one of the best in the world about six years ago and despite being in his golden years now we would love to see him in England’s top flight.

He’s currently living it up in the MLS with New York City, but considering Manchester City now just have one forward at their disposal in Jose Angel Pozo, don’t be surprised if the Spaniard does take up residence at the Ethiad. (Telegraph)
