January transfer window news & rumours LIVE: Chelsea quoted £100m for Coutinho

Chelsea have been in touch with Barcelona over the availability of Coutinho, with the London side being quoted £100m ($130m) for the Brazilian's services, according to the <a href="https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1074821/Philippe-Coutinho-transfer-news-Barcelona-Chelsea" target="_blank">Express</a>. The former Liverpool man had a positive start to life at Camp Nou, but has fallen down the pecking order late, with Ousmane Dembele being preferred in attack. Manchester United are reported to be interested in the 26-year-old, but Chelsea have reportedly not baulked at Barca's valuation of the playmaker, meaning a battle could be on for his signature. It is said that the Liga champions plan to use the money recouped from the sale of Coutinho to help fund Neymar's return to Spain.

Jose Mourinho has claimed that he has already turned down three job offers from unspecified clubs since moving on from Manchester United.

Barcelona's links to Frenkie de Jong and Carlos Vela were brushed aside by head coach Ernesto Valverde, who insisted he was not frustrated while waiting for signings.

Jose Mourinho has highlighted the investment made in Manchester City and Liverpool's squads in a thinly veiled dig at Manchester United's transfer policy during his time in charge. Although United splashed out £89 million ($115m) on Paul Pogba and £75m ($97m) on Romelu Lukaku during his time in charge, Mourinho was left increasingly frustrated by what he perceived to be a lack of backing in the market by the Old Trafford board. United have won seven games out of seven since Mourinho's sacking, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer presiding over a perfect record during his spell as interim replacement. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/city-bought-guardiola-four-full-backs-mourinho-hits-out-at/wle1s501y79k1e25c0abjxmmu" target="_blank">Read more on Mourinho here!</a>

Santiago Solari is reluctant to bring Isco back into the Real Madrid starting XI believes he holds the rest of the team back, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.marca.com/futbol/real-madrid/2019/01/19/5c42263f22601d10738b457e.html" target="_blank">Marca</a>. The midfielder is said to be unhappy at the Santiago Bernabeu and wants to leave, with Manchester City and Arsenal among those monitoring his situation. His chances of convincing Solari to let him play more often look slim, however, as the coach does not want to put him in the team at Luka Modric's expense.&nbsp; The Spain international is making the rest of the team play worse and and appears upset in the dressing room, only enhancing the likelihood of a departure from the Spanish capital.

Tottenham have highlighted Patrik Schick as a target to replace the injured Harry Kane, but have been knocked back by Roma,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.goal.com/it/notizie/calciomercato-roma-schick-richiesto-dal-tottenham-no-dei/21mpl9om0e0v1ktlc6sx86hcj" target="_blank">Sky Sport Italia</a>&nbsp;says. The Premier League side are considering their options after learning they will be without their star striker until March. Mauricio Pochettino has says Spurs will look to find cover from within their squad, but have sounded out Roma over Schick's availability. Roma are not interested in letting the 22-year-old go, however, and have snubbed Spurs' approach.

Adrien Rabiot will be given one last chance to join Barcelona from Paris Saint-Germain, reports&nbsp;<a href="https://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/fc-barcelona/20190119/454194371403/ultimo-aviso-del-barcelona-a-rabiot.html" target="_blank">Mundo Deportivo</a>. The Catalan side have long been trying to lure the midfielder to Camp Nou, but face competition from several top European clubs, while PSG have not given up on keeping him. Barca will hold talks with Rabiot next week, where he will either make a commitment to the Camp Nou outfit or they will back out of the deal entirely.

Trent Alexander-Arnold has signed a new five-year contract with Liverpool. The 20-year-old's impressive displays in recent seasons have made him the Reds' first choice right-back, though he is currently out with an injury. Alexander-Arnold's renewal comes just days after fellow full-back <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/robertson-signs-new-five-year-liverpool-deal/77ws8c0mo2k8195x7lh29xzyn" target="_blank">Andy Robertson signed a long-term deal with Jurgen Klopp's team</a>. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/alexander-arnold-signs-new-five-year-liverpool-deal/6brb3r620afb18n972s2p2sku" target="_blank">Read the full story on Goal!</a>

West Ham will try to lure Andrea Belotti to the Premier League if they lose Marko Arnautovic,&nbsp;<a href="https://sport.sky.it/calciomercato/serie-a/2019/01/19/calciomercato-torino-belotti-west-ham.html" target="_blank">Sky Sport Italia</a>&nbsp;says. Belotti has long been linked with a switch to the English top flight amid his rise to stardom in Serie A but Torino refused to let him go. With Arnautovic on the verge of a move to China, West Ham are considering other options and see the Italy international as a top candidate. However, Torino are still holding out for a fee upwards of €60 million (£53m/$68m).

Scott Brown is considering leaving Celtic to join Western Melbourne. The 33-year-old midfielder has been at the Scottish side for 12 years but looks set to leave with his contract expiring&nbsp;at the end of the season. <a href="https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/scott-brown-close-quitting-celtic-13874039" target="_blank">Daily Record</a>&nbsp;reports that he has already been offered a two-year deal by the Australian club, who believe he can be their new leader on the pitch. "We are pretty close with some players including a marquee,"&nbsp;Maurice Bisetto, one of those financially backing Western Melbourne said.&nbsp;"We are looking at a pre-season start in June, so things need to get moving. "We think Scott Brown has a lot of positives and could make a significant contribution to a new club...as a leader on and off the field."

Genoa have warned AC Milan that they will have to pay up if they want to sign&nbsp;Krzysztof Piatek this month as the striker will not be allowed to leave on loan,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.calciomercato.com/en/news/exclusive-ac-milan-will-only-sign-piatek-on-a-permanent-deal-thi-55982" target="_blank">Calciomercato</a>&nbsp;claims. The Rossoneri wanted to sign the Poland international on an initial loan, but their fellow Serie A side are not willing to discuss anything other than a permanent move. Genoa are holding out for €35 million (£31m/$40m) and although AC Milan can match that asking price, they will try to include at least one player to include in the deal before making their next approach.

Juventus have scheduled a meeting with the agent of Lyon star Tanguy Ndombele,&nbsp;<a href="https://sport.sky.it/calciomercato/serie-a/2019/01/19/calciomercato-juventus-ndombele-ultime-notizie.html" target="_blank">Sky Sport Italia</a>&nbsp;reports. Manchester City and Barcelona have been showing an interest in the 22-year-old midfielder for some time, but&nbsp;Lyon are holding out for €80 million (£71m/$91m). Juventus have been tracking him for some time, though, and are set to hold initial talks with his representatives in an attempt to lure him to Italy.

Fulham striker Aboubakar Kamara is in talks with several clubs as he looks to organise a loan move in January. The 23-year-old wants to leave Craven Cottage this month and has attracted interest from across Europe, but will only be allowed to make a temporary switch. <a href="https://www.francefootball.fr/news/Aboubakar-kamara-fulham-vers-un-pret/979053" target="_blank">France Football</a>&nbsp;claims he has already heard from other Premier League teams as well as a few from France and Turkey.

The ex-Ajax right-back is wanted by Real Betis, while AC Milan and Galatasaray have also been linked.

Manuel Pellegrini has dismissed talk of&nbsp;West Ham trying to sign Callum Wilson from Bournemouth to replace Marko Arnautovic. The Hammers looks set to lose their star striker this month amid reports of a lucrative offer from China. Wilson is said to have attracted interest from several Premier League sides, but Pellegrini insists his team is not one of them. "He's a very good striker but the rumours we want [Wilson] are not true," Pellegrini said.

Gonzalo Higuain could sign for Chelsea in time to make his debut against Tottenham in the second-leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final, so says&nbsp;<a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/8227696/gonzalo-higuain-chelsea-transfer-tottenham-debut" target="_blank">The Sun</a>. The Blues are on the verge of signing the Argentine striker, who is currently on loan at AC Milan from Juventus, and he will travel to the English capital to complete the move. Chelsea will not be able to hire the ex-Real Madrid and Napoli star in time to face Arsenal on Saturday, but he will be ready for Thursday's clash against another London side.

Real Madrid hope to get Chelsea to lower their €100 million (£88m/$114m) price tag on Eden Hazard, but the Blues plan to stick with that figure, reports <a href="https://www.marca.com/en/football/real-madrid/2019/01/18/5c422b4de2704e4b248b4610.html" target="_blank">Marca</a>. Hazard will aim to move to Madrid in the summer, and with one year left on his deal, Madrid hope to force Chelsea to sell at lower than their asking price. But Marina Granovskaia will use the transfer fees of Neymar and Paul Pogba to show how much the transfer market has shifted, and will hold firm on their valuation.

Manchester United are interested in signing PSV winger Steven Bergwijn, according to the <a href="https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/man-utd-prepare-25million-january-13874414?_ga=2.210696274.699005247.1547870989-1417034702.1499567525" target="_blank">Mirror</a>.

Bergwijn signed a contract extension this past summer to 2022, after PSV turned down bids from Torino and Bordeaux.
