Danny Rose was involved in a training ground bust-up with Jose Mourinho over the weekend, according to the <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-7909147/Jose-Mourinho-Danny-Rose-bust-big-tension-air.html">Daily Mail</a>. Rose was not happy with being left out of the squad to face Watford on Saturday. Mourinho's official reason was that the left-back was not in the best shape after struggling with a minor back injury. Though Rose has previously said that he will see out his contract, which runs until 2021, Mourinho was asked whether he has a future at Tottenham. "Yeah, he is part of my plans," Mourinho said. "We made a decision to bring only fit players to a match [against Watford] that we knew was going to be physical."

Rose still in Mourinho's plans for now

MLS side New England Revolution have announced that the contract of defender Samba Camara is void. The Revolution announced Camara's signing from Ligue 2 side Le Havre back in December.

Pep Guardiola has suggested that no Manchester City player is safe ahead of a summer overhaul in the transfer market. He is rumoured to want a centre-back as a priority, having failed to replace Vincent Kompany when he left the club at the end of last season. He may also need to strengthen in attack, with&nbsp;Leroy Sane a target for Bayern Munich. "I have an idea of what we need," Guardiola&nbsp;said ahead of City's midweek clash with Sheffield United.&nbsp;"We speak quite often with the club. "There are still four months [to go] and it depends on that. We are going to take a decision. Everything is related to the performance, not about the contract we have or what we are. For me as a manager, [I'm]&nbsp;being observed and it's the same for the players."

Kyle Walker has been offered a return to Sheffield United when he eventually leaves Manchester City. The two sides meet on Tuesday evening and, ahead of the game, Chris Wilder was asked about Walker, who started his career at Bramall Lane. "Kyle's a Sheffield boy,"&nbsp;he said. "I tried to tap him up when we played City [before] but he said he's got a another couple of years playing there. "He's one I would take and I think the world of him. I'm sure we'll be able to find a role for him when he decides to leave Manchester. "He's a top player and he's already said he wants to finish what has been a brilliant career back at Sheffield United. Don't count against it.&nbsp;He's got my number and he knows he can phone me any time."

Brighton have made a £3m (€3.5m/$3.9m) bid for Billel Omrani, reports <a href="https://www.getfootballnewsfrance.com/2020/brighton-make-e3-5m-bid-for-billel-omrani/">Get French Football News</a>.

Southampton aren't interested in allowing Oriol Romeu to leave in January, according to the <a href="https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/18173256.southampton-arent-interested-letting-oriol-romeu-leave/">Daily Echo</a>. Celta Vigo have been in contact with the Saints over a move for Romeu, who has made 176 appearances for the club since joining from Chelsea in 2015.&nbsp;Ralph Hasenhuttl does not want to lose him, however, as he remains the only real back-up to&nbsp;James Ward-Prowse and&nbsp;Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg. Celta were willing to pay £8.5m for his services but, despite the sizeable fee, Southampton have blocked the move. They have taken the same approach over Che Adams' mooted loan to Leeds, despite the fact that he was Marcelo Bielsa's top transfer target.
