It’s Friday! While offices everywhere wind down for the weekend, the Premier League transfer gossip never stops.
Here are the latest Premier League transfer rumours from January 12.
Brighton have been masters of the transfer market in recent seasons and Evan Ferguson looks set to be the next name to fetch the Seagulls a sizeable sum.
The Evening Standard are reporting that Brighton will demand a fee in excess of £100m for the teenager, with Chelsea interested in a deal for the Irishman.
Just don’t take that cursed number nine shirt, Evan.

One outgoing at Chelsea could be David Datro Fofana. Recalled from an unhappy loan at Union Berlin, The Athletic say Burnley are prepared to five the youngster a chance in the Premier League.
West Ham, another side with a sketchy history of signing centre-forwards, want Feyenoord goal-machine Santiago Gimenez, claim the Times, though the Hammers are not interested in re-signing free agent Jesse Lingard, say the Standard.
Kylian Mbappe (yes, him again) is in the headlines almost every day right now.
Football Transfers are claiming that Real Madrid are having reservations over signing the long-term target, given his inability to give the Spanish side a straight answer on a free transfer move. Senior figures at the Bernabeu are reportedly favouring a move for Napoli’s Victor Osimhen instead.
iNews report that Arsenal like £60m-rated Amadou Onana but would need to sell before purchasing the Everton midfielder. There are also multiple sources linking the Gunners with Bologna striker Joshua Zirkzee.
Finally, Al-Hilal want Aston Villa left-back Lucas Digne according to reports from France’s L’Equipe, while The Guardian say Everton and Fulham are among the Premier League clubs prepared to five Frank Onyeka a loan exit from Brentford. The Nigerian has started just six games in the Premier League this season.
