The January transfer window is heating up, with several clubs making moves to strengthen their squads. Here are the latest transfer news and rumors:
Nottingham Forest’s Bid for Yoane Wissa Rejected
Nottingham Forest’s £22m bid for Brentford forward Yoane Wissa has been rejected, according to talkSPORT.
The Bees value Wissa at a higher price, and it’s unclear whether Forest will return with an improved offer.
Wissa has been in excellent form this season, scoring 11 goals in 19 Premier League appearances.
Michael Kayode to Brentford
Brentford are close to signing Fiorentina right-back Michael Kayode on an initial loan deal, according to Fabrizio Romano.
The deal includes a buy option for €16m (£13.2m) at the end of the season. Kayode’s arrival could pave the way for Mads Roerslev to join Wolfsburg on loan.
Odysseas Vlachodimos Turns Down Saudi Pro League Move
Newcastle United goalkeeper Odysseas Vlachodimos has rejected a formal proposal to join Al Shabab in the Saudi Pro League, according to Fabrizio Romano.
Vlachodimos prefers to continue his career in Europe rather than make the switch to the Saudi Pro League.
The 30-year-old has struggled for playing time since joining Newcastle from Nottingham Forest in the summer.
These transfer updates highlight the ongoing activity in the January transfer window. As the deadline approaches, expect more clubs to make moves to strengthen their squads.
