Transfer news and rumours LIVE: Man Utd eye loan move for Atletico star Llorente

Manchester United are aiming to land Atletico Madrid's Marcos Llorente on loan until the end of the season, reports the <a href="https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/man-united-transfer-news-llorente-17533044" target="_blank">Manchester Evening News.</a> With injuries to Paul Pogba&nbsp;and&nbsp;Scott McTominay, the club have been forced to look at strengthening their midfield in the January transfer window. Llorente, 24, joined Atletico&nbsp;from Real Madrid in the summer but has failed to secure regular minutes under Diego Simeone, starting just three of 19 La Liga games thus far.

Injuries have forced the Red Devils to look into strengthening their midfield

Donny van de Beek will join Real Madrid in the summer, according to De Telegraaf. The Dutch newspaper's chief sports writer Valentijn Driessen told <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaMN6kEP8sI" target="_blank">Veronica Inside</a>: "You can write that down [the Van de Beek to Real Madrid transfer being done]. It's all settled. It's done. "Manchester United won't have to call for him anymore." Reports have suggested that Ajax have agreed to sell to Madrid for €55 million (£47m/$61m).

Paul Pogba is looking increasingly likely to leave Manchester United in the summer, according to <a href="https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11667/11909061/paul-pogba-likely-to-leave-manchester-united-in-the-summer" target="_blank">Sky in Germany.</a> The Red Devils want to keep the midfielder until at least the end of the season due to a lack of replacements being available in January, with Pogba keen on joining Real Madrid. A summer deal will still be difficult for interested parties, however, with&nbsp;United&nbsp;reportedly asking&nbsp;for a fee in the region of £150 million ($195m) for the French World Cup winner. Juventus are also apparently interested in signing the midfielder.

Real Madrid midfielder Isco has emerged as a target for Chelsea - according to <a href="https://eldesmarque.com/madrid/real-madrid/noticias/181989-isco-y-el-juntos-negociacion-en-la-sombra-viene-para-llevarselo-del-real-madrid-ed" target="_blank">Eldesmarque</a>. The Blues want the Spaniard to play in front of N'Golo Kante, but will have to pay around £47 million ($61m) to secure his services. Isco has been restricted to just six La Liga starts for Madrid throughout the 2019-20 campaign.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has identified Leicester City playmaker James Maddison as his top transfer target for the summer, Football Insider reports. Maddison, 23, is currently under contract until 2023 with the Foxes and is said to be locked in talks over a new deal with Brendan Rodgers' side. With Arsenal now joining both Manchester club in being credited with an interest in the England international, however, a move to a historically bigger club may be appealing.

However, Inter are currently ahead in the race and have already submitted a formal offer.

Manchester City are set to reject any advances from Arsenal for John Stones this month, according to the <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-7887655/Manchester-City-reject-efforts-Arsenal-sign-John-Stones-January.html">Daily Mail.</a> Former City assistant Mikel Arteta is now head coach at Arsenal and may have been hoping to use his connections with his former club to plug his own leaky defence. However, Pep Guardiola's side are struggling for depth and quality at centre-back and will not consider selling any of their senior options in that position this window.

Paul Pogba is likely to leave Manchester United but not until the summer transfer window, according to <a href="https://sport.sky.de/fussball/artikel/manchester-united-paul-pogba-vor-abschied-aus-der-premier-league/11908690/34130">Sky Sports Germany.</a> The Frenchman has just a year and a half left on his current deal and, should he fail to pen an extension, the United hierarchy will not risk allowing the club's record signing to leave on a free transfer. Real Madrid have often been linked with a move, but the Frenchman's former club Juventus is also a potential destination.

Inter have submitted an opening bid of&nbsp;€10m (£8.6m/$11.1m) for Tottenham midfielder Christian Eriksen, according to <a href="https://gianlucadimarzio.com/en/inter-make-opening-bid-for-tottenhams-eriksen-the-details">Gianluca Di Marzio.</a> The Danish playmaker, 27, has just six months remaining on his contract and Spurs must sell this window if they are to command a transfer fee. However, they still value Eriksen at closer to&nbsp;€20m (£17.1m/$22.3m) and negotiations are ongoing between the two parties, although the player is believed to be keen on a move should his club accept a fee.
