Leeds United, Sheffield Wednesday and Hull City are among the clubs featured in our latest transfer news round-up.
As the deadline for the winter window approaches, the desire to strike deals only increases.
It has been a busy month in Yorkshire already and activity levels look likely to increase in the coming weeks.
Here are the latest transfer headlines on Tuesday, January 20, 2025.
Leeds United express interest in defender
Leeds United have reportedly expressed an interest in signing Jayden Oosterwolde from Fenerbahce.
The 24-year-old is said to have been identified as a potential Marc Guehi replacement by Crystal Palace, although Leeds are also thought to be keen.
Nottingham Forest and Serie A club Roma have also been linked with a swoop for the former Parma and FC Twente defender.
Sheffield Wednesday forward eyed
Speculation regarding the futures of Sheffield Wednesday duo Barry Bannan and Bailey Cadamarteri is continuing to circulate.
It has been claimed Millwall are making a move to prise Bannan from Hillsborough and that the 36-year-old midfielder could be available for a nominal fee.
Cadamarteri, meanwhile, is also said to be on Millwall’s radar. It has now been claimed the forward is also of interest to Stoke City, Swansea City, Charlton Athletic, Blackburn Rovers, Luton Town, Wycombe Wanderers and Mansfield Town.
Hull City playmaker holds talks
Kasey Palmer is said to have held talks over a potential loan switch from Hull City to LEague One outfit Luton Town.
The 29-year-old has been a bit-part player for the Tigers this term and his exit could free up space for a new recruit at the MKM Stadium.
It has, however, been claimed the deal on the table does not contain a buy option for the Hatters.
Sheffield United dealt blow over midfielder
Aston Villa are reportedly discussing a potential contract extension for Sheffield United-linked midfielder Ross Barkley.
The former England international has been reported as a target for the Blades, who are shuffling their pack in the window.
However, the 32-year-old is said to have a one-year contract extension clause in his deal that Villa could activate.
Middlesbrough make decisions
Middlesbrough are set to retain forward Delano Burgzorg despite talk of interest from Bristol City, a report has claimed.
It has also been claimed the club will be giving up on their hunt to sign winger Jeremy Sarmiento from Brighton & Hove Albion, with alternatives set to be explored.
Bradford City eye defender
Bradford City are weighing up a move for Accrington Stanley defender Benn Ward, according to Football Insider’s Pete O’Rourke.
Wigan Athletic, meanwhile, are thought to have had a third bid for the 21-year-old rejected.
Stockport County and Reading have also been linked with the defender, who Accrington signed from Burnley last year.
