- Mohamed Salah wants to sign a three-year contract to stay at Liverpool, reports Football Insider, with discussions regarding the 32-year-old winger's future now coming to a crucial stage. With the Egypt international out of contract at the end of the season, Salah wants a new deal that would run until 2028. It's an equally important time for Virgil van Dijk, with Nicolo Schira reporting that talks are progressing between the 33-year-old Dutch centre-back and Liverpool as they try to extend his contract until 2027.
- Juventus are prioritising Benfica's António Silva as they aim to sign a centre-back in January, reports Sky Sports Italia. They could look to bring in a second defender later in the winter window, but work has already started on making sure they get the 21-year-old. I Bianconeri will try to complete an expensive loan in the same style as the one that brought in Francisco Conceição from Porto in the summer.
