Newcastle United, Leicester City, Leeds United, West Brom, Arsenal and Norwich City could be concluding some Deadline Day Transfer deals.
Choudhury keen on Newcastle move
Leicester City midfielder Hamza Choudhury is a wanted man, with both Newcastle and West Brom keen on his signature.
But, according to Sky Sports’ Transfer Blog (9:40 am), the combative midfielder is keen on a move to Newcastle over making a switch across the Midlands.
That would be music to the ears of Newcastle supporters because they need some much-needed quality in that midfield area.
But this is Transfer Deadline Day for a reason and, like Allan Saint-Maximin running down the wing, there are sure to be more twist and turns to come.
Casey could be a potential outgoing at Elland Road
Marcelo Bielsa isn’t exactly known to be a busy man on Transfer Deadline Day, or during the January transfer window as a whole, when it comes to concluding some business.
He’s too busy trying to work out more ways of making ‘Murder Ball’ even more exhausting for his players.
But there could potentially be some outgoings at Leeds, even if a fresh face isn’t expected to walk through the Thorp Arch doors.
The Athletic’s journalist Phil Hay has claimed on Twitter that Olly Casey could be a potential departure.
The 20-year-old defender has only featured in the EFL Cup and the FA Cup this season, as League One side MK Dons are showing interest.
Three months after leaving Villa, Nyland finds a new home
In June, Orjan Nyland was lining up between the sticks for Aston Villa as they bid to stay in the Premier League.
Whilst the Norway international will be remembered for that infamous ‘goal-line technology’ moment against Sheffield United, it just didn’t work out for the shot-stopper at Villa Park.
But he has found a new home in the form of the current Championship leaders Norwich City.
The Canaries confirmed on their official website that Nyland has joined on a short-term basis, as he has been brought in as cover.
Maitland-Niles heading for the exit door?
Mikel Arteta remained coy on Ainsley Maitland-Niles future at Arsenal, as a number of clubs circle for his signature.
As reported by BBC Sport’s Transfer Blog (10:23 am), the likes of Leicester City, Southampton, West Brom and Newcastle are keen to add him to their ranks.
But Arteta has told BBC Sport about Maitland-Niles: “I cannot speak about individuals. We know what we want to do.
“The conversations we have had, there are various reasons and let’s see if we can get something done tonight.
On whether any other players would go out on loan, Arteta said the club “have decided” and were “working on it.”
