Premier League transfer rumours: The Big 6 and their weirdest transfer rumours this January

Manchester United

The Red Devils, as is always, have been linked with several big names around the world. The club are rumoured to be interested in James Maddison, Jack Grealish, Bruno Fernandes, Edinson Cavani and Koulibaly Kalidou. However, with the passing of the days, the names associated with the club have just gotten weirder.

The name that has our attention though is that of Carlos Tevez. United are desperate for a forward after losing Marcus Rashford to injury. However, the Argentine is the exact opposite of everything that the club were looking for back in the summer window.

Carlos Tevez is a 35-year old ex United player at the end of his career. The former Premier League star can’t even make it in the Boca Juniors side at the moment. To expect him to recreate the same magic from a dozen years back and fill Rashford’s gap is not just ridiculous but downright delusional!

The club would be better off paying Sporting’s demands for Bruno Fernandes and improving their midfield and give Mason Greenwood the chances like Ole claimed he would before the 2019/20 season began.

Chelsea

The Blues have a huge war chest that they can splurge on transfers following the sale of Eden Hazard to Real Madrid and their transfer embargo. However, the blues are yet to bring in a new signing despite having their ban revoked.

This however, hasn’t stopped the club from being linked to multiple players in the ongoing transfer window. Price is hardly an issue for the club right now which makes even the 100m rumors for players like Timo Werner and Jadon Sancho look like actual possibilities.

Although there are some questionable rumours such as Wilfried Zaha and Lewis Dunk, whose performance this season or age do not align with their asking price, the one that tops them all is Vinicius Jr.’s who could join Chelsea this January for €80m according to El Desmarque.

Considering how heavily Real Madrid have invested in the teenager’s development, it is unlikely that the club will part with him now. There is also the matter of the Brazilian being surplus to requirement at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea have both Pulisic and Hudson-Odoi filling in for the Left-wing role at the moment.

This concludes all the weirdest and the most ridiculous Premier League Big 6 transfer rumours.
