Transfer News LIVE: Chelsea agree first January deal, Man Utd join Todibo race and Tottenham target Diop

The January transfer window is almost upon us and as ever the rumour mill is working in overdrive.

Chelsea are close to beating Manchester United and Liverpool to a deal for £120million-rated Borussia Dortmund and England star Jadon Sancho, according to The Sun on Sunday.

And, per Goal, the Blues have already agreed the first deal since the lifting of their transfer ban, with Norwegian teenager Bryan Fiabema set to join the club next month.

Meanwhile, Catalan publication Sport say that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has joined the race to sign young Barcelona centre-back Jean-Clair Todibo.

Elsewhere, Tottenham want to take Issa Diop from rivals West Ham, say Sky Sports, while reports in Italy suggest that Mikel Arteta's Arsenal are looking to snap up Napoli striker Dries Mertens.
