      PEP GUARDIOLA plans to sign Boca Juniors left-back Valentin Barco — then loan him out to his old pal Enzo Maresca at Leicester.Manchester City’s transfer team are closing in on a deal for the 19-year-old defender as they edge ahead of Brighton in the race to bring him to the Premier League.
      Manchester City are close to signing Valentin BarcoCredit: Getty
      But boss Guardiola’s idea is to farm out Barco to his former coaching sidekick Maresca once he is signed because they think the teenager needs the experience.
      It could be a massive boost for promotion-chasing Foxes if City can clinch the deal during January’s window.
      But even if Barco’s move is delayed until next season, Guardiola is still keen to send him to the Leicester ‘finishing school’ before using him at the Etihad.
      Barco has a fixed fee of around £10million but extra costs will make the deal worth up to £13m.

      Guardiola is keen to land the Argentinian, who has shone at club level and was a stand-out in the recent Copa Libertadores final, when Boca lost 2-1 to Brazilians Fluminense in extra-time.
      Brighton hoped to win the chase after making the first serious bid for Barco but even they now fear they only have a 25 per cent chance.
      The Seagulls first tried to sign the defender this summer and went close to triggering his release clause.
      The Sussex outfit have signed a host of players from South America in recent years with great success.

      Alexis Mac Allister was a star at the club until he was sold to Liverpool for £35m.
      Moises Caicedo also joined from South America and was eventually sold to Chelsea for a British record fee of £115m.
      While the likes of Facundo Buonanotte continue to impress when handed game time by manager Roberto De Zerbi.
      This season Barco has featured 31 times in all competitions.
      He has been used in various different positions including left-back, left-wing and even centre-midfield.
      Barco has managed to chip in with four assists and one goal.
      The goal was the first of his professional career as he bagged in the 4-0 win over Monagas in the Copa Libertadores. More

      Newcastle, on the other hand, benefited from a recent vote in which Premier League clubs agreed to allow loan signings between teams with the same owner.
      That could see the Magpies making a bid for Al-Hilal star Ruben Neves to fill in for Sandro Tonali, who has been banned for 10 months following betting breaches.

      Benrahma’s new agent is well-connected among the leading Saudi outfits and has recently been to London for a face-to-face meeting with Hammers boss David Moyes.
      If the bid comes in, West Ham may accept as Benrahma, 28, is not guaranteed a place in the team  these days and his appearances and game time have been reduced.
      Moyes will not want to push Benrahma out, especially with Europe still on the fixture list — but the right cash may sway the decision.
      The winger joined the Irons initially on a loan deal in 2020 from Brentford.

      However, in the January transfer window the club exercised the right to buy Benrahma for £25million plus £5million in add-ons.
      Since then, he has played 146 time for the club scoring 24 goals.

      Aaron Ramsdale is one player that could seek out a transferCredit: Reuters
      Many players will be on the lookout for a move in the upcoming transfer window in an attempt to boost their hopes of a call-up to their national teams.
      This could be a concern for their clubs who may not want to lose certain players and the depth that they provide.
      SunSports have identified seven players who need to try and get a transfer should they want to play at the Euros.
      Aaron Ramsdale
      The Arsenal goalkeeper has struggled for game time this season thanks to the arrival of David Raya.
      READ MORE IN FOOTBALL
      Aaron Ramsdale was one of the club’s best performers last season and earned himself a spot in the England set-up.
      It was expected that he would push Jordan Pickford for the starting role at the Three Lions, however, his place is now at risk in the team.
      Gareth Southgate may look at stoppers who have played more regularly than Ramsdale which could see the places handed to the likes of Nick Pope, Sam Johnstone or Jason Steele.
      Ramsdale has been linked with moves to Chelsea and Newcastle.

      Kalvin Phillips is another England player who could lose their spot due to a lack of playing time at his club.
      The midfielder has only played four times in the Premier League this season.
      Phillips has been linked with a move away from the Etihad Stadium with the likes of Newcastle and Juventus reportedly interested.
      Donny van de Beek

      Donny van de Beek has been a fringe player at Manchester United pretty much since his arrival at the club in 2020.
      The midfielder has since lost his spot in the national team, having not played for the Netherlands since 2021.
      The 26-year-old has admitted that he will be on the lookout for a new club should his playing time under Erik ten Hag not increase.
      Anthony Martial

      Sticking at Old Trafford, Anthony Martial is another player who could make a move in order to save his international career.
      Once hyped as the next Thierry Henry, Martial’s career has stuttered in recent times at Man United due to various reasons.
      The forward should look to make a move in the January window if he hopes to be in the French team alongside the likes of Kylian Mbappe in Germany.
      Jorginho
      Jorginho is on the fringes at ArsenalCredit: Getty
      Jorginho could be at risk of losing his spot in the Italy national team as they look to try and retain their title.
      The midfielder has become a back-up option at Arsenal following the arrival of Declan Rice in the summer.
      Jorginho has been linked with a move away from the Emirates Stadium with the likes of Barcelona interested.
      The Italian’s contract is up at the end of the season so Arsenal could look to cash in while they have a chance.
      Noni Madueke
      Noni Madueke has barely played for Chelsea this seasonCredit: Getty
      Noni Madueke arrived at Chelsea last January from PSV and a lot was expected from the exciting youngster.
      However, under Mauricio Pochettino, the winger has barely featured in the Premier League having only made five appearances.
      The Englishman has featured for the England U16, U17s, U18s and U21s so far in his career.
      A move to a different club, on loan or permanent, that would guarantee him game time could see him become a late contender for a spot in the England squad.
      Bryan Gil

      Bryan Gil has never really had a chance to succeed at Tottenham since his £20million move from Sevilla.
      The wide midfielder has only played 15 times in the Premier League since 2021, twice this season.
      The once highly-rated Spaniard has played four times for the national side and a return to his homeland could boost his chances of a call-up for the Euros. More
