What deals could happen this month? The January window is open! There’s gonna be absolutely loads of transfer chat around over the next few weeks, so we’ve picked out five things to look out for over the next month of gossip and rumours! MESUT TO GO-ZIL? Mesut Ozil signed a massive contract to become Arsenal’s best-paid player last January, but a year on his future’s in doubt. The midfielder has had a few injuries and been linked with Inter, so The Gunners could listen to offers – if anybody can afford his wages! REAL DEALS? Real Madrid only know one way to solve their problems, and that’s with big money signings, so Prem clubs will be nervous about the Spanish giants’ spending plans! Gossips reckon they’ve added Christian Eriksen and…

ADRIEN RABIOT We’ve been hearing loads of rumours about PSG’s young midfield master. Arsenal and Liverpool have both been linked, and so have his old youth club Man. City, but Barcelona are also in the running for his signature! DANIEL STURRIDGE Giroud’s only been at Chelsea for a year, so it’s hard to see him leaving, but his strike partner in this XI might fancy a move. Sturridge is always on the bench for Liverpool, and European clubs like Sevilla could offer him game time! VINCENT KOMPANY The Man. City captain is a Premier League legend, but the CB’s struggled to get into the champions’ team this season. With John Stones and Aymeric Laporte the first-choice pair, will Kompany start chatting to other clubs? JUAN MATA Mata has produced some…

THE QUICKEST! ASHLEY SAYS: “ Theo Walcott or Aaron Lennon. They’re so quick, it’s a joke trying to defend against them! They’re a lot quicker than me – Aaron has that ability to stop and then just go straight off again, and you’re like, ‘Woah, what’s happened here ’ But maybe Theo just wins!” BEST PLAYER! ASHLEY SAYS: “ L ionel Messi. For me he’s the best in the world and, although I’ve only played him in pre-season, he is unbelievable. That was during our USA tour last summer – I was supposed to be marking him, but I couldn’t get close to him!” THE MOST SKILFUL! ASHLEY SAYS: “ Nani had lots of tricks, but right now I’d say Anthony Martial. His feet are unbelievable – they’re a joke!…

MY NEXT CLUB – B. DORTMUND Looking for a Career Mode challenge? Try taking on the German giants! STARS Dortmund have a super exciting attack, with wicked wonderkids Jadon Sancho and Christian Pulisic supporting the likes of Mario Gotze, Marco Reus and Paco Alcacer. Julian Weigl can boss the midfield and Manuel Akanji’s a solid CB! BOARD The Dortmund board will want you to challenge Bayern for the Bundesliga title and do well in Europe, but their biggest priority is Brand Exposure. You can boost this by winning a pre-season tournament or making some big-name signings! TOP TIP To get the best out of this squad, use a formation with wingers, like 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3. Also, with so many young stars like Sancho, Pulisic and Sergio Gomez, you have to…
