2+ hour, 55+ min ago (503+ words) Everton manager David Moyes could look to re-sign a former Toffee Everton's 4-1 defeat at home to Newcastle United on Saturday came as something of a wake-up call for David Moyes, who is reportedly keen to re-sign a former Toffees star in January.

According to transfer journalist Alan Nixon, Moyes is keen on signing Fulham left-back Antonee Robinson, who started his career with the Toffees. Robinson, 28, was very highly rated by Everton during his time at the club but was sold to…...

8+ hour, 31+ min ago (841+ words) Will Liverpool keep Mac Allister? The chances of Alexis Mac Allister paying the price for his downturn in form and having to leave Liverpool have been clarified by a reporter " with part of the reasoning mirroring the club's rationale behind determining Arne Slot's future. Liverpool's decline this season cannot be pinpointed to just one player, with several suffering from a dip in standards. But there has been plenty of scrutiny on Mac Allister, who doesn't seem to be up to the pace of the game anymore " which is concerning for someone who's still only 26. Nevertheless, Mac Allister has been listed as a potential opportunity for Real Madrid in the transfer market.

8+ hour, 59+ min ago (879+ words) Tottenham goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario and manager Thomas Frank What Tottenham truly think about signing an upgrade on Guglielmo Vicario has been revealed, while Thomas Frank has gone to war with the Spurs fans who booed the Italian following his blunder against Fulham.

The goalkeeper charged out of his box to pick up a loose ball, but while pressured, could only find a Fulham shirt with his clearance. Five seconds later, Harry Wilson expertly curled a long-range effort into an open goal and the inquest " and…...

It's no secret Man Utd are exploring the market for one and more probably two or even three new midfielders over the coming windows. The likes of Joao Gomes and Conor Gallagher are viewed as viable market opportunities, but aren't priorities for United. Instead, Ruben Amorim's side have grander plans to sign all three of Elliot Anderson, Adam Wharton and Carlos Baleba. Of course, this would be done over multiple windows and not in one stroke.
