Chelsea have softened their stance on Enzo Fernandez, with reports indicating the Blues are willing to sanction a blockbuster exit in 2026 for the 'right price'. Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain are now on red alert, preparing to test the waters for the World Cup winner as they look to capitalise on this unexpected development at Stamford Bridge.

Vinicius Junior making a move to Chelsea remains a ”fairytale shout”, says former Blues midfielder Jody Morris, with the Real Madrid superstar considered to be “too old” for owners at Stamford Bridge that prefer to focus on youth and potential.

Oleksandr Zinchenko is being offered a route out of his Nottingham Forest nightmare, with Arsenal sanctioning a fresh loan switch for the Ukraine international.

The defender is set to join the Cityzens in a January transfer worth £20 million.

Crystal Palace are reportedly considering sacking Oliver Glasner as manager just days after he announced he would leave the club at the end of the season. Chairman Steve Parish has been left angered by Glasner after he claimed he felt "completely abandoned" by the club's hierarchy in the wake of Saturday's Premier League defeat to Sunderland at the Stadium of Light.

Jose Mourinho has responded to speculation he could make a shock return to Real Madrid as manager. Los Blancos have endured a traumatic week that has seen Xabi Alonso depart as manager and be replaced by Alvaro Arbeloa. However, Arbeloa's first game in charge ended in a shock Copa del Rey exit and he then saw his side booed by fans during Saturday's La Liga win over Levante.

Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen is set to seal a move away from Camp Nou, but has rejected the chance to head to the Premier League after receiving an offer from West Ham United.

While effectively ruling himself out of the running to take over at Real Madrid, Jurgen Klopp pointed out that "the coaching market is being reshuffled" right now - because Xabi Alonso isn't the only manager to lose his job at an elite European club since the turn of the year. On January 1, less than six months after lifting the Club World Cup, Enzo Maresca was fired by Chelsea after publicly criticising his employers. Just four days later, Manchester United also got rid of Ruben Amorim for speaking out of turn.

However, it was impossible to ignore The Best FIFA Men's 11 for 2025 - because the omission of Raphinha made so little sense.
