Zlatan to Tottenham: Free

Hello and welcome to daily transfer gossip with E D Sport. Today, we start with Tottenham under Mourinho, who have been linked with a move for Zlatan Ibrahimovic on a free transfer from LA Galaxy. Zlatan has been in fine form for LA Galaxy this season, scoring 31 goals and assisting 8 times in 31 games.

At Tottenham, Zlatan is unlikely to be a starter, replacing Harry Kane when necessary or for tactical purposes. Zlatan’s contract expires in January and he could be tempted to link up with Mourinho again in the Premier League.

Mourinho could be interested in signing Zlatan because Tottenham are short on strikers and rely mostly on Harry Kane, with limited replacements should he get injured. Overall, we think that this transfer may happen but only on a short term basis. Therefore we give it 4 out of 5 stars.

Chilwell to Chelsea: £50 million

Next up, we have Chelsea, who are rumoured to be interested in a move for Ben Chilwell from Leicester for a fee of 50 million pounds. Chilwell is a key man in the Leicester defence, scoring 1 goal and assisting 3 times in 10 games so far this season.

At Chelsea, Chilwell would be their main starting left-back, replacing Emerson in the starting eleven. Chilwell may be interested in a move to Chelsea but it is uncertain, especially when Leicester have started so strongly this season and are currently in second position.

Chelsea would definitely be interested in Chilwell, a player that Lampard views as the ideal left-back for the long term future of the club. Overall, we think that this transfer could happen but is unlikely in the short term, giving it 3 out of 5 stars.

Bale to Tottenham: Exchange for Eriksen

Moving on, we again have Tottenham, who have been linked with a move for Gareth Bale from Real Madrid in exchange for Christian Eriksen. So far this season, Bale has played 6 games for Madrid, scoring twice and assisting twice.

At Tottenham, Gareth Bale would predominantly feature on the left side of attack, competing with Son for a starting place in the team. At present, Bale would definitely be interested in a return to Tottenham, having grown frustrated with the state of affairs at Madrid.

Tottenham could well view Bale as the ideal replacement for Christian Eriksen, a player that Mourinho wants to keep at the club but may be forced to sell in the end. We Think that this transfer will happen and give it 4 out of 5 stars.

Gaitan to Villa: Free

Now for Aston Villa, who have been linked with a move for Nicolas Gaitan on a free transfer from MLS side, Chicago Fire. Gaitan has been in fine form in the MLS this season, scoring 4 goals and assisting 11 times in 27 games.

At Villa, Gaitan would provide support on the wings, replacing either El Ghazi or Trezeguet on both sides when necessary. Gaitan could be interested in a move to Villa, having never played in the Premier League throughout his established career.

Villa are likely to be interested in Gaitan, a player that could help the club to ensure Premier League survival for next season. Overall, we think that Gaitan will move to the Premier League and that a move to Villa is on the cards, giving it 4 out of 5 stars.

Piatek to Everton: Exchange for Kean

Finally, we have Everton, who have been linked with a move for AC Milan striker, Krzysztof Piatek, in exchange for Moise Kean. The Polish international has started slowly this season, scoring only 3 goals in 12 games, providing zero assists.

At Everton, Piatek would almost certainly be their starting striker, replacing Tosun in the starting line up. Piatek is unlikely to be interested in a move to Everton though, favouring a move to a top team like Juventus or Barcelona.

Everton would be interested in Piatek, having started the season slowly and wanting to climb up the table as fast as possible. We Don’t think that this transfer will happen because we think that Piatek wouldn’t be keen on a move to Everton, therefore we give it 1 out of 5 stars.
