FootballTransfers runs through the biggest rumours and gossip from 26 October, including the latest updates on Alex Scott, Jarrad Branthwaite and Estevao.
Article continues under the videoChelsea have reportedly agreed personal terms to sign Alex Scott in January, with Bournemouth resigned to losing their star midfielder.
Scott has emerged as Chelsea' top target to replace Enzo Fernandez after failing to sign a midfielder on transfer deadline day and Si Philips has claimed that personal terms are still 'largely' in place with the England internaitonal after being agreed in the summer.
Bournemouth would ask for more than €100m for Scott but all parties are keen for a quick resolution, meaning a deal could be closed almost as soon as the transfer window opens on January 1.
Leny Yoro is wanted for a reunion by former Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim at Milan, according to reports in Italy.
Yoro was a key player during Amorim's time at Old Trafford and Calciomercato report that Milan are hopeful they can broker a deal for the Frenchman in 2027 for around €40m.
Crucially, they hope Jorge Mendes, the agent of Yoro who also represents Amorim, could be the key piece of convincing the defender to leave United for Milan next summer.
Manchester United are still keen on signing Jarrad Branthwaite in 2027, having pursued the Everton defender for many years previously.
Branthwaite has been a long-term target for the Red Devils but Everton have always been adamant that they would not sell the England international for less than €80 million.
Having returned to fitness and the England squad in recent times, Football Insider claim that United are set to revive their interest as they look to rebuild their defence in the next two transfer windows.
Estevao is growing frustrated with his lack of game time and may consider his future at Chelsea if it doesn't improve by January, TEAMtalk claim.
The 19-year-old has played just 47 minutes of Premier League action under Xabi Alonso this season and was left on the bench for the majority of Chelsea's loss to Tottenham on Saturday, with fellow youngster Geovany Quenda getting the start.
While Estevao ‘firmly believes’ he should be plaing more, the teenager is said to be Estevao focused on regaining his place in Chelsea’s team but, if his game time has not improved by the turn of the year, the winger could reassess his future at the club ahead of the January transfer window.
