Manchester/Liverpool, UK — With the January transfer window just days away, rumors are reaching a fever pitch. The biggest news today is that Manchester City appears to have won the race for Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo. Reports suggest City is ready to trigger the star’s £65 million release clause to bolster their attacking options for the second half of the season.

Meanwhile, Manchester United is reportedly considering a shock move to bring James Garner back to Old Trafford from Everton. At Liverpool, the focus is on the defensive line; while Ibrahima Konate has been linked with Real Madrid, sources close to the club suggest he is unlikely to leave this winter. Further down the table, Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder is reportedly planning a “major winter rebuild,” with up to five players expected to be axed or returned to their parent clubs in January
