Transfer news and rumours LIVE: Man Utd struggling to decide between Kane and Osimhen as next striker

West Ham and FC Lorient had reportedly agreed a deal for striker Terem Moffi in January, Lorient's president Loic Fery told French outlet L'Equipe, despite a move never materialising.

“We had accepted an offer from Marseille and another from West Ham, which were within our parameters. When you close the door, you have to know when to stop,” Fery said.

Despite offers from these two clubs, Moffi eventually joined OGC Nice on loan with an obligatory option to buy in the summer.

The Turkish transfer window has been extended due to the recent disaster that has hit the country, FIFA have confirmed.

"In light of the exceptional situation caused by the natural disaster affecting Türkiye, the Bureau of the FIFA Council has decided to extend the second registration period of the Turkish Football Association (TFF) in TMS until 18 February 2023," football's governing body wrote in a Tweet.

All three of Liverpool, Manchester United and Roma will reportedly send scouts to watch Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite next week, according to the Daily Mail.

The 20-year-old is currently on loan at Dutch outfit PSV Eindhoven and is thought to be improving significantly under the guidance of former United striker Ruud Van Nistelrooy.

The aforementioned clubs will face competition from PSV themselves when the loan comes to an end, though, as they had two bids rejected by Everton in the summer before agreeing on the loan move.

MLS champions LAFC have been told by ex-USMNT player Hercules Gomez that signing Chelsea forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang would be a bad idea.

While Gomez doesn't doubt Aubameyang's quality, he doesn't think the move makes sense financially or tactically.

Chelsea completed the loan signing of Joao Felix from Atletico Madrid, with the Portuguese set to see out the season at Stamford Bridge after falling out Diego Simeone in the Spanish capital.

Chelsea’s agreement with Atletico does not include a purchase option, meaning that Felix will be heading back to Wanda Metropolitano in the summer. However, if the Blues want to sign him permanently then they might have to pay €140m, according to Mundo Deportivo.

The Portuguese forward has a contract with Atletico until the summer of 2027.

A group of Qatari investors are planning a takeover bid for Manchester United in the coming days, says the Daily Mail.

The Glazer family are looking to sell and multiple potential bidders are lining up.

Catch up on the latest on GOAL.

Manchester United will choose between £100 million-rated Harry Kane and Victor Osimhen this summer, but are struggling with the decision, reports the Telegraph.

The Red Devils know their top priority is adding a top-tier striker, but they don't want to miss on such an expensive signing. Ten Hag is said to personally like Osimhen's playing style and long-term potential more but recognises the value of Kane's Premier League experience.

Tammy Abraham has been named as a potential fallback option if bids for Kane and Osimhen are unsuccessful.
