Transfer News LIVE: Werner to Chelsea, Man Utd striker blow, Arsenal target Dembele, gossip and rumours today

Welcome to the Evening Standard's coverage of the upcoming January transfer window.

Christmas Day has arrived, but most managers will have to wait until January 1 to find out what transfer treats lie in store.

Timo Werner is a wanted man this winter. The RB Leipzig star has been linked with Liverpool, Manchester United, Bayern Munich and more... and Chelsea could make an early play for the striker's signature in January, according to the Express.

There is a giant Christmas tree outside Old Trafford, and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer knows one player who won't be sitting under it: Mario Mandzukic. The Croatian was a backup option to Manchester United's number one target Erling Braut Haaland, but the 33-year-old has terminated his Juventus deal to join Qatari side Al Duhail.

Over at Arsenal, there are reported fears that the Gunners could lose at least one of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang or Alexandre Lacazette - and Le10Sport suggests that Mikel Arteta is ready to sell either striker in order to move for Lyon youngster Moussa Dembele.
