Re-live Mail Sport's live blog for all the latest news and updates ahead of the January Transfer window on Wednesday, January 10.
Coutinho 'could reunite with Messi'
Philippe Coutinho could reunite with Lionel Messi at Inter Miami as the forward 'doesn't feature' in Unai Emery's plans at Aston Villa following a loan spell in Qatar.
The 31-year-old Brazilian temporarily joined QSL club Al-Duhail in September, and scored on his debut in a 2-1 away victory over Al-Markhiya, but has only gone onto score another goal in a total of six appearances across a timespan of four months.
He's now set to return to the Midlands this month, but Emery and club executives at Villa are apparently looking for another way to ship out the player in the form of a loan or a transfer.

Who is Radu Dragusin?
Radu Dragusin is a wanted man in this transfer window - after Tottenham looked certain to sign the Romanian before Bayern Munich entered the race for his coveted signature.
Mail Sport reported this week that Ange Postecoglou's side were closing in on the signing of the Genoa centre-back in a deal worth up to £25million.
Given injuries to first-choice defenders Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven in recent months, Spurs have been keen to bolster their defensive reinforcements this month.
Mail Sport's James Cohen takes a look at the promising Romanian defender.
Juan Mata announces decision on his future
Former Chelsea and Manchester United star Juan Mata has announced he will leave Vissel Kobe, just three months after signing for the Japanese club.
The 35-year-old made just one appearance for the team and was an unused substitute in another five games after joining as a free agent from Galatasaray in September.
Mata, however, secured a league winner medal as Vissel Kobe won their maiden J1 League title in 2023 - the Japanese season runs from February to December.

Jadon Sancho is 'set to travel to Germany in the next 48 hours'
Jadon Sancho is reportedly 'set to travel to Germany in the next 48 hours' as Man United 'are finalising the details' for the winger to complete his loan move to Borussia Dortmund following his exile from Man United.
According to The Athletic, the 23-year-old 'will undergo a medical and sign for Dortmund within the next 48 hours' with United having 'reached a loan agreement' with the Bundesliga club that is being valued at 'a minimum of £3.5million.'
They add that Edin Terzic's side will contribute to his salary and United 'could receive potential bonus payments based on his performance.'
Sancho interestingly also liked a post on X (formerly Twitter) from Fabrizio Romano in which the football journalist stated that the winger would be returning to his former club.

Max Kilman one of West Ham's TOP priorities
Wolves are under no financial pressure to sell captain Max Kilman this month amid growing interest in the centre-back from West Ham.
The Hammers have identified Kilman as one of their top priorities should Nayef Aguerd, who is currently preparing for the Africa Cup of Nations with Morocco, leave the club in January.
Wolves previously rejected a bid worth £30m for Kilman from a top European club.
