Manchester United are likely to be one of the Premier League's busier teams in the January transfer window.
Marcus Rashford wants to leave Old Trafford and United are happy to facilitate his exit. His future is likely to dominate the headlines over the next month and the Red Devils could bring in a new forward if they managed to find a buyer.
Premier League leaders Liverpool meanwhile will be looking to reinforce their squad for the title run-in. But January will be bring the futures of Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold, into fresh focus. All three are out of contract at the end of the season and will be free to negotiate with non-English clubs from New Year's Day.
Manchester City will also be big spenders as they look to rescue their miserable campaign. Finally, Bukayo Saka's injury in the win at Crystal Palace has posed a major problem for Arsenal. They could go in search of a replacement, with the likes of Benjamin Sesko, Viktor Gyokeres and Mateo Retegui said to be on their radar.
