We have scoured the back pages and the internet to bring you the latest gossip.

We are not saying they’re true – just that they are out there.

WOLVES

There is the possibility that Wolves could move again for Celtic defender Bobo Balde in January, when the player is mere months from the end of his Parkhead contract and is likely to be more responsive to the prospect of first-team football.

ALBION

In relation to the Real Mallorca trio the club are known to be interested in, an Albion bid for defender Nunes of £5million has supposedly been rejected, with the player’s buy out clause believed to be in the region of £8million.

VILLA

Newcastle have ruled out letting Villa target James Milner leave St James Park.

BLUES

Forgotten defender Franck Queudrue has been told by Alex McLeish that he could still play a big part for the Blues this season – if he gets fit.
