23.56: That's all for tonight. Thanks for joining us and we'll be back in the morning.

23.55: Wigan boss Roberto Martinez tonight let rip into what he called the
"disgusting" speculation that has surrounded Maynor Figueroa.

"In the window there is a lot of talk and speculation, and it is a great moment for the authorities to look into how much we need it. The authorities should look into the necessity of the window and the agents who have this power and unhealthy control in the game, with the backing of a Premier League club, and that's disgusting.

"It gives the opportunity to certain agents to have a big say in the game. The power is given to the wrong people. We've had two insulting bids for the player, but he is not for sale. I've made it clear we're not going to sell any of our best players.

"If we're going to sell a player it will be at the right time for the club to collect some money and to reinvest for the next level."

Sunderland are understood to be the thwarted club.

23.40: Interesting stuff from Zoran Tosic in Bild. Having joined Cologne on loan from Manchester United, he says that, while there's no option for a permanent deal, "who knows what can happen in the summer?". He joined Cologne to get more first-team football.

23.00: The Mirror goes big with a story we'd heard on the grapevine - Anderson is AWOL, having left Manchester United to go back to Brazil, and is trying to negotiate a deal with Vasco De Gama.

22.50: if you were following the Villa-Arsenal match, you may have noticed Nicky Shorey on the bench. Martin O'Neill's recalled him from Nottingham Forest due to an injury to Stephen Warnock, and that most likely means Forest's hopes of keeping him at the club for the promotion run-in are over.

22.45: Apologies for the break - back now. Here are some quotes from Milan general director Ariedo Braida about how striker Klaas Jan Huntelaar is going nowhere from Tuttomercatoweb.

"Huntelaar is staying here. Any discussion is superfluous. Arsenal? No, I repeat that the player is staying at Milan."

19.02 Brazilian midfielder Fabio Simplicio will swap Palermo for Roma, his club have confirmed. "Simplicio has an agreement with Roma. Once his contract here ends, he will play in the capital," sporting director Walter Sabatini told Radio Kiss Kiss.

17.51 The agent of highly-rated Crystal Palace striker Victor Moses expects a flurry of offers to come in now that the Eagles are in administration. Tony Finnigan said: "A lot of scouts were at Wolves on Saturday ... and some Premier League sides had an interest but that's not the same as making an offer. Now the club is in administration, clubs that were interested who maybe thought he was too expensive, can now [place] a modest [transfer fee] rather than £5m or £6 million."

17.16 BREAKING NEWS: Burnley have signed Leon Cort from Stoke City for £15 millon on a three-and-a-half year contract.

17.06 Soccernet understands Blackburn Rovers have joined West Ham United in the race to sign Benjani from Manchester City.

16.59 Manchester City misfit Robinho is edging closer to a return to Santos but a deal is not yet done, according to a source close to the Brazilian. "The deal with Santos is close, very close, but not concluded," the source told Soccernet.

16.47 Everton pair Lukas Jutkiewicz and John Ruddy have agreed deals to remain on loan at Motherwell until the end of the season.

16.31 Dirk Kuyt's agent claims he knows nothing about a link with Juventus... first we've heard of it too. "I know nothing of Juventus' interest," Robert Jansen told Calciomercato.

15.57 Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed that midfielder Giovani dos Santos will spend the remainder of the season on loan at Turkish club Galatasaray.

15.30: Dinamo Moscow may have claimed they are about to sign Yossi Benayoun but Liverpool are adamant he will not be leaving Anfield in January. Who do we believe?

15.21: We have some slightly bizarre news arriving from Crystal Palace where the club's administrators have prevented Victor Moses from playing. They could net a windfall if he is sold and cannot risk an injury. He will be off in January then.

15.03: It is being reported that Portsmouth have signed former Arsenal forward Quincy Owusu-Abeyie on a loan deal from Spartak Moscow, although as yet there is no confirmation from the club.

14.55: There have been no shortage of Barcelona youngsters moving to England in recent years - with Cesc Fabregas chief amongst them - and now the latest crop of Catalan talents are being targeted by Premier League clubs.

Sport reports that Chelsea want Thiago Alcantara, Arsenal are tracking Israeli talent Gai Assulin while Everton and Blackburn want Jeffren Suarez. Amusingly, Tottenham are believed to be keen on signing Giovani dos Santos' brother, Jonathan, despite his sibling failing to make any impact and joining Galatasaray on loan earlier today.

14.25: Yildiray Basturk has been talking about his move to Blackburn and it appears a former Ewood favourite had something to do with it...

"I had contact with Blackburn for three months and I spoke to Tugay and he said it is a very good club and to come here and try the last few years. I played about 50 games for the national team with Tugay and he always told me how good a club Blackburn is."

14.06: We have another done deal in the Premier League with Burnley confirming the signing of goalkeeper Nicky Weaver. He joins the club on a six-month deal from Dundee United in the SPL.

13.43: Spanish daily As reports that Real Madrid are edging ever closer to signing Sergio Canales. Apparently a 4 million euro deal will be announced next week with Canales remaining at Racing Santander for next season.

13.31: If you want more information on the Tosic and Basturk deals, look no further...

13.23: A bit of excitement in the January transfer window, who would have expected that? We now have more news with Manchester City edging ever closer to the loan signing of Roma defender Marco Motta, according to reports.

13.14: BREAKING NEWS - Manchester United winger Zoran Tosic has joined Cologne on loan for the rest of the season after failing to impress at Old Trafford. It's getting busy now, finally.

13.10: BREAKING NEWS - Blackburn Rovers have announced the signing of Turkey international Yildiray Basturk on loan from Stuttgart for the remainder of the season. We didn't see that one coming. Is that a good move for all concerned?

12.55: Reports in Holland claim Andwele Slory could be leaving Feyenoord. He was linked with Blackburn earlier in the month and we will try and follow this one up for you to see what's going on there.

12.35: There has been plenty of speculation surrounding Klaas-Jan Huntelaar's future, with Everton and Arsenal just two clubs linked with the striker, but it appears Milan have no intention of letting him leave in January.

"Huntelaar stays here, all talk is unnecessary," general manager Ariedo Braida said. "Arsenal? No, I repeat that the player remains at Milan."

12.21: Luis Jimenez hasn't made much of an impression at West Ham since his loan move from Inter and it now appears that Parma are hoping to convince him to return to Italy.

"Jimenez interests us," sporting director Pieto Leonardi told tuttomercatoweb. "In fact, I am heading to Milan to talk about a possible transfer."

12.07: There have been rumours that Portsmouth are sniffing around Tottenham's Giovani dos Santos but Avram Grant can give up as Galatasaray have announced on their official website that the player has joined them on loan until the end of the season. Frank Rijkaard managed Gio at Barca and clearly hopes to get the best out of him. He joins Jo, Elano, Harry Kewell and Lucas Neill at the club.

11:50: Nottigham Forest boss Billy Davies has revealed that he has enquired about bringing teen sensation Victor Moses to the City Ground. Forest are flying high in the Championship but it's thought Crystal Palace will be looking to offload the young striker to a Premier League club in order to maximise revenue.

10:23: Spanish newspaper AS are saying that hot prospect Sergio Canales is moving ever closer to a move to Real Madrid. Seems like a solid career move for the striker, who obviously fancies the challenge of usurping Ronaldo, Raul, Higuain and Benzema.

10:08: L'Equipe are reporting that on loan Portsmouth striker Aruna Dindane is hoping to stay in the Premier League even if Pompey get relegated. The Ivory Coast striker is due to return to Lens at the end of the season but apparently Birmingham, Blackburn and Stoke are all in the hunt to sign him.

10:04: After another poor performance by Liverpool last night, Jones reckons it's time for Rafa Benitez to go, and thinks he should take a certain Brazilian midfielder with him. He says:

I really hope that Benitez does go to Juventus and that he takes Lucas with him..
