Things are all set to pick up pace in the final three days of the January transfer window. While Liverpool is making the last effort to sign winger Luis Diaz, Newcastle United is eyeing more signing. On the other hand, Barcelona and Juventus are locked in a battle to swoop striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Arsenal.
Diaz was already in the Liverpool head coach Jurgen Kloop's preliminary list of transfer targets. As of now, an initial fee of £37.5 million has reportedly been agreed upon. It could be raised £12.5 million more provided the winger is successful at Anfield. However, his arrival could cast doubt on Mohamed Salah's future at the club, who is yet to extend his contract.
Also, Newcastle United is ready to show the power of its money with some more signings before the window closes. With midfielder Bruno Guimaraes joining from Lyon, it would take its January signing to three after Kieran Trippier and Chris Wood. The Magpies are desperate to save relegation, and an unusual top spending spree in January could be its only key for the same.
