The January transfer window slams shut at 6pm ET as European teams scramble to add new signings for title pushes, races for European places and to stave off relegation. You can expect a flurry of activity between now and the end of the day. Keep up to date with the latest news and rumours.

Burn joins Toon from Brighton

Newcastle's latest signing will be its latest of the window.

The team confirmed the capture of defender Dan Burn from Brighton. 

From nearby Blyth, Burn grew up a Newcastle supporter and spent time in the club's academy as a child.

He's made 74 appearances in the Premier League for the Seagulls over three seasons.

Palace signs Mateta on permanent deal

Jean-Philippe Mateta's loan at Selhurst Park has been so successful that he's staying there permanently.

Crystal Palace announced the signing of the 24-year-old forward through 2026.

Mateta had been on an 18-month loan from Bundesliga side Mainz.

A native of Sevran, France, Mateta has two Premier League goals in 14 appearances for the Eagles.

Watford ask about Henderson

England goalkeeper Dean Henderson has made exactly two appearances for Manchester United this season with David De Gea's fine form firmly establishing him as the Red Devils' No. 1 once again.

After a loan deal with Newcastle couldn't be agreed upon, there might be a lifeline for more playing time in the window's final hours.

BBC Sport's Simon Stone reports Watford has made an inquiry about Henderson's services. Whether or not a deal for the 24-year-old who made his name on loan at Sheffield United can be worked out before 6pm remains to be seen.

Aubameyang deal getting close to the finish line

After being on and then off, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's Barcelona deal is being finalized.

Guillem Balague reports that everything has been agreed and the 32-year-old striker will move over from Arsenal on a free transfer.

An official announcement should be forthcoming.

Liverpool trying to land England starlet from Fulham

Liverpool is attempting to bring one of England's best young talents to Anfield before the window closes.

Fabrizio Romano reports the Reds remain in contact with Fulham for 19-year-old England U-18 midfielder Fabio Carvalho.

Carvalho has appeared in 16 league matches for the Championship leaders this season, scoring seven goals.

Any deal would see Carvalho immediately loaned back to Fulham for the rest of the season as the Cottagers seek to return to the Premier League.

Barca update

Barcelona president Joan Laporta says he's confident the club will get its business taken care of prior to the window closing this evening with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang arriving at Camp Nou and Ousmane Dembele heading elsewhere.

"It seems that we will pull it off," Laporta told Mundo Deportivo of the continuing Aubameyang transfer talk,

As for Dembele, he believes there is still is a way forward.

"Various solutions have been proposed, the last one depends on whether the player accepts it, it is to go to an English club," Laporta said.

 

What's next for Dembele?

France forward Ousmane Dembele was told by Barcelona to find himself a new club before the window closed last week.

He reportedly agreed to personal terms with Paris Saint-Germain, but no deal was consummated and his future remains undecided.

Guillem Balague reports that all of Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur have made calls to Barca about Dembele, but nothing really progressed.

Time is ticking for a solution to be found.

Pandev picks Parma

Goran Pandev is on the move.

Gianluca Di Marzio reports the veteran North Macedonia midfielder is leaving Serie A strugglers for Serie B side Parma.

Pandev, 38, has spent the past seven seasons with Genoa, making 176 league appearances.

Having also played for Lazio, Inter, Napoli and Galatasaray, Pandev joins a Parma team that sits 12th in the table with promotion hopes appearing to be unrealistic.

Another of Genoa's veterans, captain Domenico Criscito, also appears headed for the exit at the end of the season with Toronto FC rumoured to be his likely destination.

 

United holding firm on Lingard

Jesse Lingard is set to be a free agent in the summer, but it doesn't appear his immediate future lies away from Old Trafford.

Fabrizio Romano reports Manchester United is holding firm against approaches from Newcastle and West Ham as the transfer window heads into its final hours.

With Mason Greenwood out of the club's plans, could their be a larger role for Lingard finally available?

Costa to join Galaxy

It's not a Deadline Day signing per se, but it's a significant move nonetheless.

Tom Bogert reports the LA Galaxy is set to sign Brazil winger Douglas Costa from Juventus.

The 31-year-old Costa would be a Designated Player, joining Kevin Cabral and Javier Hernandez.

Currently on loan with Brazilian side Gremio, Costa has also played for Shakhtar Donetsk and Bayern Munich.

Capped 31 times by Brazil, Costa has won 11 league titles in Europe.

Aubameyang Barca move collapses...for now

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's lifeline away from Arsenal has seemed to collapse for the time being.

Guillem Balague reports the loan move to Barcelona has fallen apart over negotiations between the two teams.

Balague notes that Barca is expect to continue to push for the move before the window closes.

Bello headed to Bundesliga

Another member of the USMNT is headed to Germany.

Fabrizio Romano reports Arminia Bielefeld is set to sign left-back George Bello from Atlanta United.

Bello, 22, has been capped six times by the USMNT after coming up through the Atlanta academy.

Bello will join Chris Richards (Hoffenheim), Tyler Adams (RB Leipzig), John Brooks (Wolfsburg), Gio Reyna (Borussia Dortmund) and Ricardo Pepi as Germany-based USMNT regulars.

No Barca move for Tagliafico

Nicolas Tagliafico isn't headed to Camp Nou.

Dutch journalist Mike Verweij confirms the Argentina defender's "dream move" to Barcelona won't be happening because Ajax wanted a permanent transfer, while Barca only wanted a loan deal because of their rather nebulous financial situation that seems to change by the day.

Tagliafico, 29, has spent the past five seasons in Amsterdam and has won a pair of Eredivisie titles with Ajax.

Internationally, he's been capped 37 times and was a member of Argentina's 2021 Copa America-winning side.

Kulusevski, Betancur sign for Spurs

It's not only outgoing players for Tottenham on Deadline Day.

Juventus confirmed on Monday morning that both Dejan Kulusevski and Rodrigo Betancur have signed for Spurs with former Juve manager Antonio Conte getting back a couple of his favourite options in London.

Terms of the transfers were not announced.

A Uruguay international, Betancur made 133 appearances over five seasons for Juve after a move from Boca Juniors in 2017.

He won three Scudetti and two Coppa Italia titles over his time in Torino.

Kulusevski, 21, was a product of the Atalanta academy. The Sweden winger joined the Bianconeri in January of 2020 and was a member of Sweden's Euro squad last summer.

Everton to sign Alli

As mentioned previously, the only way for Everton to sign Dele Alli would be on a permanent and that's exactly what's happening, according to multiple reports.

The Daily Telegraph's Matt Law notes the breakdown of the fees is a little out of the ordinary.

The transfer will be a free one, but a £10 million payment will be required once Alli hits the 20-game mark with the team.

Once an England regular, the Milton Keynes native hasn't been capped since 2019. Could the Toffees move rejuvenate Alli's international career ahead of this fall's World Cup and force his name back into consideration for Gareth Southgate?

Zakaria joins Juventus

Dennis Zakaria is headed to Serie A.

Borussia Monchengladbach confirmed on Monday that the 25-year-old Switzerland midfielder had signed for Juventus.

The Geneva-born Zakaria had made 125 Bundesliga appearances for Gladbach over five seasons following a move from Young Boys.

Internationally, Zakaria has been capped 40 times and was a member of the Switzerland squad at last summer's Euro 2020.

Lingard wants out

After starring in the second half of last season on loan at West Ham United, England forward Jesse Lingard was persuaded to remain at boyhood club Manchester United with the promise of a bigger role this season. That promise has gone unrealized and the 29-year-old academy product wants to play the remaining six months of his contract elsewhere.

Fabrizio Romano reports Lingard once again asked interim manager Ralf Rangnick for a move on Monday.

A loan approach from Newcastle was rejected last week, but the Magpies remain interested, as does West Ham.

Lingard has only made nine league appearance this season for the Red Devils, scoring twice. 

Ramsey to Rangers on loan

Aaron Ramsey's Serie A appears to be at its end

Juventus has allowed the 31-year-old Wales midfielder to join Scottish champions Rangers on loan for the rest of the season with an option to buy.

The Cardiff City academy product joined the Bianconeri in 2019 on a free transfer from Arsenal. His playing time has been infrequent this season and a move to the Scottish Premiership will allow Ramsey to get in more game time as Wales makes a push for the 2022 World Cup.

He finishes his stint in Italy with 49 league appearances over three seasons.

Lampard's Alli complications

New Everton manager Frank Lampard already has Netherlands midfielder Donny van de Beek arriving from Manchester United on loan and he'd like to also bring England midfielder Dele Alli to Goodison Park, but there's just one problem.

As Phil McNulty notes, with the additions of van de Beek and fellow Dutchman Anwar El Ghazi, signed from Aston Villa last week on loan, the Toffees have hit their loan quota, meaning that Alli's move from Tottenham Hotspur would have to be a permanent transfer.

Whether or not Everton would be able to complete that - or even if they would be interested in doing so - before the window closes remains to be seen.

Alli, 25, is in his seventh season with Spurs. He has made 10 league appearances this season, scoring once.

Aubameyang having Camp Nou medical

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's Arsenal exit looked likely after the 32-year-old striker was stripped of the captain's armband in December for disciplinary reasons and now it's coming closer to fruition.

BBC Sport reports the Gabon international is having a medical at Barcelona ahead of a loan move.

Aubameyang passing his medical is not a given. He was dismissed from the Africa Cup of Nations early because "lesions" were detected on his heart following a bout of COVID-19.

Born in France, Aubameyang joined Arsenal from Borussia Dortmund in 2018 in a £56 million transfer, then a club record.

The 2019 Premier League Golden Boot winner, Aubameyang has scored 68 league goals in 128 appearances.
