Thursday’s transfer news: Man Utd’s Bruno Fernandes deal collapses, Liverpool continue talks for Pedro Brazao as Tottenham turn to £40m Willian Jose

Gareth Bale's agent Jonathan Barnett has insisted the Welsh forward will not be leaving Real Madrid this month.

Bale was linked with a return to Tottenham, but that now appears to be impossible for the time being.

Bale could feature against Unionistas in the Copa del Rey tonight.

Dundee midfielder Graham Dorrans has signed a new 18-month contract with the club.

Dorrans, 32, has made 16 appearances in all competitions this season for the Scottish Championship club after joining in September.

"I'm delighted to get the deal done," Dorrans told Dundee's official website. "It's been a great period for me, getting back to playing week after week.

"I've really enjoyed my time with the club. The players and staff have been brilliant with me."

Former West Brom midfielder Dorrans made his Dundee debut at Greenock Morton the day after he arrived at the club, having been released from Rangers earlier in September.

Everton summer signing Moise Kean admits his first goal for the club has given him the boost he needs to start scoring more regularly.

The 19-year-old recorded his maiden Everton goal on his 22nd appearance since a £27.5million move from Juventus in a 71-minute display but it was not enough for victory as Newcastle scored twice in added time to snatch a 2-2 draw.

However, there was considerable promise in his performance, one which Goodison Park had been waiting for since the summer.

"It feels good, it is a big motivation to do more work and help the team. I hope (it is the first of many)," Kean said. "I showed to the coach in training I am ready and if he chooses to put me on the pitch, I do my best. I am very happy.

"It is good motivation to start to do very well, to play very well for the team."

Back to Edinson Cavani now with Chelsea said to be at odds with PSG over their valuation of the player.

Frank Lampard is desperate to add a top striker this month after watching his side fail to kill off 10-man Arsenal on Tuesday night.

Add to that doubts over Tammy Abraham's fitness after the England international picked up a knock at Stamford Bridge and Lampard has shifted his priorities from a left-back to a forward before next week's deadline.

The Uruguayan international fits the bill with only six months remaining on his contract.

A short-term loan is a possibility but a permanent deal is the preference with the Daily Telegraph reporting PSG want €15m for the 32-year-old.

They say the Blues are unwilling to go that high with his current salary well over £350,000 per week factored in.

This one looks set to go down to the wire.

Bayern Munich are keen to re-sign Douglas Costa from Juventus.

The Germans would like to sign the Brazilian on loan, with an option to buy, according to Sport Bild.

With Maurizio Sarri predominantly preferring a combination of Paulo Dybala, Gonzalo Higuain and Cristiano Ronaldo, Costa could look to move for more playing time.

The battle is on for Danny Rose's signature this summer, after his bust-up with Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho. 

The full-back looks set to finally depart Spurs, with Watford and Newcastle interested in signing him, according to the Daily Mirror. 

Here's an odd one. Bleacher Report claims Chelsea could SELL Kepa Arrizabalaga this summer, bringing in Burnley's Nick Pope to replace him. 

It is also reported Chelsea have doubts about the true value of their former centre-back Nathan Ake. Bournemouth want at least £40m for the 24-year-old, but the club are wary of committing. 

Here's Jorge Mendes on the future of Sporting's Bruno Fernandes, who is Manchester United's top target this January:

“If he doesn’t leave now, he will leave for sure in the summer because Sporting have already spoken with other clubs. Something will happen but I am not sure if now or at the end of the season.”

Matteo Politano, the Inter Milan forward, is caught in a tussle right now between Roma and Napoli. Politano would rather go to Rome, but Napoli have agreed a €25m deal with Inter and are in pole position.
