Ligue 1 news

New Liverpool defender Jeremy Jacquet appeared to sustain a serious shoulder injury during Rennes' clash with Lens, just days after confirming his move to Anfield. The Reds have agreed a deal worth £60 million ($82m) to sign the centre-back this summer but he now faces a significant lay-off.

Three PSG vs Marseille predictions for their Ligue 1 clash on Sunday night, including value on the winning margin bet.

Kylian Mbappe has sent a bailiff to Paris Saint-Germain to demand €5.9 million from his former employers, with the club now facing a deadline of eight days within which to pay the striker. The Ligue 1 giants have already paid out €55 million (£48m/$65m) of a €60.9m (£53m/$72m) settlement.

Sergio Ramos has reportedly offered himself to Marseille as he bids to find a new team. The former Real Madrid centre-back left Mexican side Monterrey on a free transfer after just 12 months with the club and is now seeking pastures new as he bids to continue his career elsewhere.

Arne Slot has expressed his immense satisfaction after Liverpool successfully fended off intense competition from Chelsea to secure a £60 million deal for Rennes starlet Jeremy Jacquet. The 20-year-old centre-back, a France Under-21 international, is set to join the Reds this summer following a season-long stay at his boyhood club. Slot believes the defender is a "very big talent" ready for the top level.

Endrick continues to set French football alight after his latest heroics for Lyon in the Coupe de France. The Real Madrid loanee secured a vital breakthrough against Laval, later admitting the strike allowed him to vent frustrations from previous weeks. With five goals in five games, the Brazilian starlet is quickly becoming the new idol of the Groupama Stadium faithful.

Endrick continues to offer parent club Real Madrid timely reminders of what he is capable of, with another spectacular goal being recorded during a productive loan spell at Lyon. The Brazilian wonderkid headed to France at the start of the winter transfer window after finding regular game time in Spain hard to come by. A dream start to life at the Groupama Stadium has been enjoyed.

Paul Pogba has been removed from Monaco's Champions League squad ahead of their upcoming knockout round play-off with domestic rivals Paris Saint-Germain. Pogba was included in their European roster for the first half of the season despite battling with injuries and focusing on a return to full fitness, but will sit out their tie against the reigning champions of France and Europe.

Liverpool have been branded "suckers" for deciding to fork out £60 million on young French defender Jeremy Jacquet. The Premier League champions usurped Chelsea in the race for the 20-year-old, who spent the second half of last season on loan at Ligue 2 side Clermont Foot, and he will arrive on Merseyside in the summer. Now, the Reds have been mocked for handing Rennes such a huge sum of cash for a young prospect.

And there we have it. The January transfer window is closed for another year, and though it was a relatively quiet month when it came to big-money deals, that does now mean we could be set up for another blockbuster summer in terms of comings and goings.

The 2026 winter window closed on Monday, with Jorgen Strand Larsen's £48 million move from Wolves to Crystal Palace the biggest deal done on deadline day. Truth be told, though, it was a pretty tame end to what's been a fairly quiet month in the transfer market. Indeed, aside from Manchester City, most of Europe's top teams did next-to-no mid-season business, while there was very little movement at all in France, Germany or Spain - which wasn't that surprising, given January is traditionally a tough time to find good value for money.

Famously, the January transfer window is the more difficult of the two to operate in. It's hard to persuade other clubs to give up assets mid-season, sometimes even harder to convince players that they're better off making a move immediately rather than waiting until the following summer. But that doesn't mean deals are impossible, or that you can't get good value for your buck.

Liverpool have confirmed a transfer has now been agreed with Rennes for highly-rated centre-back Jeremy Jacquet. The defender will spent the rest of the season with the Ligue 1 side and will then head to Anfield at the end of the 2025-26 season. Chelsea had been keen to land the 20-year-old but have been beaten to his signature by Arne Slot's side.

January is a notoriously bad time for buyers because nobody ever wants to sell top talent midway through the season. There are, however, exceptions to the rule. Some clubs need to raise funds to balance the books, while others can be left with not option but to unload an unhappy player who has made it clear that he wants to join a stronger side.

Rennes head coach Habib Beye has confirmed that defender Jeremy Jacquet is poised to move to Liverpool in a deal worth £60 million ($82m). The Reds have gazumped Chelsea in the race to land the centre-back, who is set to remain on loan at the French club for the remainder of the season. Beye has expressed his disappointment at the transfer but says it's the "best deal we could hope for."

Arsenal may be ruing their decision to let Ethan Nwaneri leave on loan, with Mikel Merino picking up an untimely injury, but the Gunners academy graduate will not be beating a hasty retreat to Emirates Stadium from Marseille. Mikel Arteta has lost a midfield option, and is scouring the transfer market for cover, and would have found a place for Nwaneri in his plans had the youngster remained in north London.
