Wolves

Wolves have been linked with a move for Angers striker Enzo Crivelli, according to reports.

Aston Villa are another Championship side reportedly interested in the 22-year-old, who's scored a single goal this season in 15 showings.

Crivelli has previously featured for Bastia on-loan, scoring 10 times in 24 appearances, he started his senior career at Bordeaux and has made over 10 appearances for the French international youth teams.

Meanwhile, Fiorentina could be reportedly set to move for Wolves midfielder Romain Saiss to end the month.

The midfielder has been a key part of Nuno Espirito Santo's side this season, and is apparently of interest to the Italian side who could be busy in the final week of the window.

The 27-year-old has made 29 appearances for Wolves this season, scoring three times.

West Brom

Arsenal are reportedly set to firm up their interest and make a push to bring Jonny Evans into the Emirates, after Manchester City decided to make a move for Athletic Bilbao centre-back Aymeric Laporte.

Evans has been heavily linked with a move away from The Hawthorns, with Arsenal now clear favourites for his signature.

It's thought that any potential incomings at Albion hinge on whether the defender makes a move away from the Black Country in the coming days.

Liverpool and Everton are reportedly considering a move for West Brom striker Salomon Rondon.

The Venezuelan forward has had a mixed season at West Brom this season, and was subject of a big money bid from China last season.

However, reports now claim that both Merseyside clubs could be mulling a move for him to try and bolster their attacking options.

Aston Villa

Villa are poised to complete the signing of Axel Tuanzebe on loan from Manchester United.

The clubs have agreed a deal which will see the 20-year-old move to Villa Park for the rest of the season.

Predominantly a central defender, he can also play at right-back and has featured on occasion as a holding midfielder for United’s under-23s.

Meanwhile, Villa could turn to Burnley striker Nahki Wells this month, if their proposed move for Leonardo Ulloa fails to get sorted.

Leicester are reportedly waiting to see if they can move Islam Slimani on this month, and any move for the Argentine hinges on his future at the King Power.

Villa are keen to add a striker this month, with Jonathan Kodjia set to miss the remainder of the season.

Walsall

Walsall are monitoring Preston centre-back Andy Boyle.

Walsall are on the hunt for defensive reinforcements after loanees James Wilson and Shaun Donnellan both left the club earlier this month.

Any move would likely be a loan deal, with Rotherham also thought to be keen.
