      Danjuma is wanted by a number of clubs in January
      According to The Athletic, Danjuma is on the radar for a number of clubs.

      With both Crystal Palace and Everton interested in signing Ings, a transfer for Danjuma may consequently trigger a move for the Englishman. More

      “I’m honest, I’m very clear. When I want to say something I speak inside the family and our family is the dressing room. I don’t want to speak about the communication of his agent, because I don’t know him, I know only Leo.
      “I’m ready to listen to him without a problem, because this situation is important.
      “It’s not a bad situation, it’s a great situation, because if he learns, if we improve our way, we can only improve, and to achieve our dreams there is only one way.
      “To be open to improve and ready to work hard, because we are Brighton, a team of medium level in this competition, so we have to think about the team more than ourselves.” More

      The Hammers haven’t won any of their last eight Premier League matches, of which they have only managed two points, and dropped to the relegation zone after Saturday’s 1-0 loss at Wolves.

      However, Saturday’s showdown against fellow strugglers Everton at the London Stadium will be crucial for the 59-year-old’s future.
      That is why West Ham chiefs are already thinking ahead and have come with four potential replacements for the dugout.

      Borussia Dortmund rate the star very highly and were set to hold talks with him this month about renewing his contract.
      But according to AS those discussions never took place, and that means the German side are open to selling Bellingham in the summer.
      The England international has a contract with Dortmund until 2025 but they could look to cash in at the end of the season for maximum profit.
      Otherwise, they risk losing him on the cheap or even as a free agent if he winds down his contract.

      Dortmund have reportedly set Bellingham’s asking price at £88million, though add-ons could mean the total price is between £125m-£130m.
      Bellingham is believed to prefer a move to Real Madrid and he produced a wry smile in reaction to a fan telling him join the LaLiga giants.
      But Real are unwilling to break their wage structure to sign the 19-year-old so are refusing to pay him more than £200,000-a-week.

      Manchester United are also believed to be eyeing Bellingham and could sign him alongside Frenkie de Jong next summer to bolster their midfield. More
