Latest January transfer rumors (1/11)

Aston Villa interested in Matteo Guendouzi, the wild-haired young guy who used to play at Arsenal, often a red card waiting to happen. Apparently he is playing well at Marseille and is still somehow only 23 years old. He would be a good pickup for Villa (or Everton). Remember that Emery (Villa's new coach) coached him at Arsenal.

Chelsea have signed Joao Felix from Atletico Madrid on loan. He's been told that he'll play the 10.  They are also talking to Marcus Thuram, the young #9 from the France team.  They already have Salzburg's Christopher Nkunku joining in the summer.  He's a Dembele / Henry style player, who can also play through the middle. Chelsea still planning to add a big name midfielder this summer (too expensive right now after Enzo Fernandez deal fell through).

Leeds apparently about to finalize the $35M purchase of Georginio Rutter of Hoffenheim, a French U21 International at striker. Only a couple goals this year, so I have to think this is a bit of a flyer. I don't see immediate help here.

Leeds also interested in French midfield destroyer at Lens, Seko Fofana, but he won't be available until the summer.

Villa also looking to sign left back Alex Moreno from Real Betis.  Good solid player with previous Prem. experience.

Aubamayang might be headed back to Barca, if it's free, and they would move DePay off their wage bill by sending him on to Atletico.

Newcastle United have been linked with Borussia Dortmund’s Youssoufa Moukoko in recent days. 6 goals and 4 assists in 14 games this season. Only around 20, likened to Samuel Eto'o.
