The January transfer window is nearing its conclusion and many more big deals could go through before the market shuts.
Tottenham have been the busiest out of the ‘big six’, making three signings this window as Jose Mourinho pushes for a top four spot in the second half of the campaign.
However, Manchester United are on the verge of completing a deal for Portugal playmaker Bruno Fernandes, who has a phenomenal goals and assists record in the Primeira Liga.
Elsewhere, it’s been pretty quiet in the market.
Man City and Chelsea are yet to make a signing but the latter are considering a move for Napoli striker Dries Mertens.
While Arsenal have signed Flamengo defender Pablo Mari on loan for the rest of the season.
