Your support makes all the difference.Liverpool want to bring Divock Origi back from his loan spell at Lille - so much so they are willing to pay £3m to break the agreement that currently runs to the end of the season, according to the Liverpool Echo. The 19-year-old forward was signed for £10m over the summer but was immediately loaned back to the French club, however with Liverpool in dire need of more fire-power, they want Origi now.
Another new weapon that Brendan Rodgers may acquire is that Saido Berahino. Despite West Brom insisting they won't sell, Liverpool have been linked yet again with the 21-year-old. A serious move for the striker, who scored four goals in the FA Cup at the weekend, will be made once Fabio Borini has been offloaded, according to The Sun.
Despite recent performances confirming Tottenham have one of the best goalkeepers in the world, according to The Sun they are willing to sell Hugo Lloris for £25m.
If Chelsea or Manchester United want centre-back Raphael Varane then they'll have to pay £20m. According to the Daily Express, that's the demand from Real Madrid for the 21-year-old France international.
Julian Draxler has been linked with a move to the Premier League for the last few windows, with Arsenal tending to be the specific club the Germany international is apparently destined for. However, according to the Daily Star, Manchester City have become keen on the 21-year-old midfielder too.
