January 8th transfers and rumors: Will A. Wenger finally leave "Arsenal"?

On the 1st of January, the window of winter player transfers opened in Europe, which will last until the end of the month.

The most visited country's football news portal "EuroFootball.com" will daily provide the most interesting news to its visitors about possible player transfers and already completed deals until the end of the month.

Negotiations for Antoine Griezmann's transfer to "Manchester United" are stalling due to huge demands from the Frenchman. The Madrid "Atletico" striker expects to earn up to 400 thousand pounds sterling in a week ("The Sun").

"Mundo Deportivo" reveals that Madrid "Real" was ready to offer up to 177 million pounds for Philippe Coutinho, but he quickly chose "Barcelona". It is not clear whether the maneuver of the "royal" club was only aimed at prolonging negotiations with the Catalans.

Arsene Wenger may be ready to leave London "Arsenal" after a shameful defeat in the FA Cup, and would be replaced by Mikel Arteta, currently an assistant to Pep Guardiola at "Manchester City" ("Daily Mirror").

"The Times" reports that Coutinho wanted to move to "Barca" so much that he paid 9 million pounds from his own pocket, and will have to pay another 2.5 million for the transfer in the future.

After winning the FA Cup match yesterday, London "Tottenham" coach Mauricio Pochettino said about Harry Kane, "you can't force everyone to stay."

Belgians Eden Hazard and Thibaut Courtois from London "Chelsea" will be the main targets of Madrid "Real" next summer ("Sky Sports").

Lucas Moura, a winger who lost his place in Paris Saint-Germain, is eager to move to "Manchester United" ("Daily Star").

"Red Devils" along with "Chelsea" are also targeting "Porto" striker Moussa Marega ("Metro").

"AS" reports that "Barcelona" has already completed the transfer of Yerry Mina from "Palmeiras" and this will be officially confirmed today. This central defender will arrive for around 12 million euros.

Having lost their leader, "Liverpool" is trying to negotiate with "RB Leipzig" for the earlier arrival of Naby Keita. This midfielder was supposed to join the Merseyside club only in the summer, but it was not expected that Coutinho would leave. The Germans want to keep Keita, but "Liverpool" will try to lure them with additional money ("Daily Telegraph").
