The eleven stars who can sign wherever they want in January

2022 is here, and that means we’ve advocated good money transfers. The teams have carried out their planning in the past and can now take the reins herto complete or resume transfers and sales. What is certain, however, is that the month will be hot.

Many footballers’ contracts expire next summer. This means that these players are free to sign a pre-contract with any team they want, with a summer horizon. It should be noted that footballers in England can only come to an agreement with clubs abroad.

Hence, negotiations for this category of players are about to break out these days. Many clubs are pushing for contract extensions, while others are pushing for specific players. Let’s see a dozen great worth and name footballers ready to sign on any team starting this month.

Goalkeeper – Hugo Lioris (Tottenham)

Transfer market value: 7 million euros

Hugo Lioris has played for Tottenham since 2012, but his contract expires in the summer. His stay in London is by no means safe. There is contact between the two sides, but the golden ratio has not yet been found. Antonio Conte has expressed hope for a contract extension.

But as long as the French goalkeeper does not put his signature on the spurs, there will be scenarios for his departure. According to French media, his return to France is open and Nis is following developments. This year he has participated in all competitions 20 times and has kept his home intact eight times.

Center-back – Niklas Zille (Bayern)

Transfer market value: 35 million euros

In the summer of 2017, Bayern invested 20 million euros to buy Niklas Zille from Hoffenheim. The German defender’s contract expires in the summer and he can now sign wherever he wants. Bayern try to persuade him to stay, but so far there is nothing in common, because the demands on the footballer are high.

So there are many names of teams that have been heard about Zille. The list is long, with Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, Liverpool, Chelsea, West Ham and Newcastle being written by the international media. The future will show where the German central defender will end up.

Center-back – Antonio Riediger (Chelsea)

Transfer market value: 35 million euros

Antonio Riediger has also joined Chelsea in the last few months of his contract. The German central defender, who has been in London since 2017, wants to expand his collaboration with the Blues. But so far there has been no agreement, as Readinger demands a large sum and Chelsea is skeptical.

Therefore, a move is possible, while from now on he is allowed to be locked in another group. Some names have already been heard for his transfer, such as Bayern and Paris Saint-Germain. Real was also involved, but according to the Spanish media, the meringues were withdrawn from the race due to Readinger’s high demands. Of course, everything can change in a transfer period.

Right-back – Nusser Mazraoui (Ajax)

Transfer market value: 18 million euros

24-year-old Nusser Mazraoui has been with Ajax since he was a child, from the age of nine. His contract expires in the summer and many believe he is ready to take the next step. According to Spanish media, the Moroccan back is Barcelona’s number 1 target and Xavi plans to make it his own from January.

The “key” to the whole thing could be his agent Mino Raiola speaking to the Barcelona people. Ajax don’t want to lose Mazraoui from now on as their squad is weakened. However, according to AS, an exchange with Serginio Dest is open, but there is a problem with the value of the two players.

Left-back – Reinildo Mantawa (Lille)

Transfer market value: 10 million euros

In the summer of 2019, Lille bought Reinildo Mantava from Belenenses for three million euros. The 27-year-old left-back from Mozambique threatens to lose the French without any financial advantage. But Lille does not want to fall without a fight.

Lazio and Napoli are, as the Italians report, the two teams fighting for Mantava. Your first goal is not the preliminary contract or waiting until summer, but an immediate transfer. Lille is asking for an amount of just under eight million euros to make even a small profit. For their part, the two Italian teams are trying to lower this price. Mantawa has made 23 appearances in all competitions while contributing to the Ligue 1 conquest last year.

Defensive Midfielder – Marcelo Brozovic (Inter)

Transfer market value: 40 million euros

Marcelo Brozovic has been with Inter since January 2015 when he left Dinamo Zagreb. Seven years later, the 29-year-old Croat is one of the most important players in the Nerazzurri. His contract expires in the summer of 2022, but Inter definitely don’t want to lose him.

The now rich Newcastle seem to have targeted Brozovic, but a transfer is difficult to achieve. The Nerazzurri are in negotiations with the Croatian media and, according to Italian media, the case is going well. So it is extremely difficult for Brozovic to leave Giuseppe Meazza. However, do not forget that a transfer deadline and if there are no signatures can hide surprises.

Central Midfielder – Frank Cassier (Milan)

Transfer market value: 48 million euros

One transfer that “came out” for Milan is Frank Cassier. However, the Ivorian midfielder doesn’t seem to be staying at the San Siro long enough and is preparing for other … states. His contract expires in the summer and a contract extension with the Rossoneri is not yet in sight. So in July he can sign a preliminary contract with any team he wants.

According to La Reppublica, Paris Saint-Germain has the first word with Cassier being the number 1 target. Manchester United and Juventus are also in the game to acquire the 25-year-old Ivorian while Liverpool have also been heard as a possible target for the Rossoneri player.

Central midfielder – Paul Pogba (Manchester United)

Transfer market value: 55 million euros

It is rumored in almost every transfer window that Paul Pogba will be leaving Old Trafford. However, the scenarios are repeatedly refuted and the 28-year-old Frenchman continues to wear the Manchester United shirt. However, his contract expires in July 2022 and an exit seems closer than ever.

If a player doesn’t want to play for a team like United, I don’t think it makes sense to get them to change their minds” Rangnik had said and Pogba opened the exit door. The French and Raiola have rejected the Red Devils’ proposals. Juventus reportedly caught his eye while Real withdrew their interest.

Right Winger – Usman Dembele (Barcelona)

Transfer market value: 30 million euros

One of the January transfer series is that of Usman Dembele. His contract with Barcelona expires in summer 2022, and Blaugrana want to keep him. A few days ago, Sport wrote about a deal, while Laporta, to persuade him, compared him to Ebape. The truth is that the French winger has not “paid back” the € 135million Barcelona spent to acquire him in August 2017. But the need calls for the extension of his contract.

There are several teams that should have him in the crosshairs. Paris seems to be watching Dembele while the Agenda has also proposed him to Bayern, who are skeptical of his character. Juventus seems to have the lead in the strong playing case. Dembele has returned from a knee injury and has made eight appearances in all competitions this year.

Left winger – Lorenzo Insigne (Napoli)

Transfer market value: 35 million euros

One of the players who apparently has already signed his pre-contract is Lorenzo Insigne. The 30-year-old winger is a product of the Napoli Academies and was loved by few Partenopei fans. However, it appears that starting this summer, Insigne will no longer wear the colors of the team he grew up with. Partenopei tried to renew his contract, but to no avail as his income would be cut.

Several major European clubs have also tried unsuccessfully to adopt it. Finally, the “golden” contract came from MLS. In particular, Insigne is preparing suitcases for Canada, as in Italy it is taken for granted that he will be transferred to Toronto. The Canadians made the 30-year-old a very tempting offer for a five-year contract and earnings of 8 million euros per year, plus a number of additional benefits such as cars, houses and private flights to Italy. The negotiations are in the final phase.

Center Forward – Killian Ebape (Paris)

Transfer market value: EUR 160 million

The name Killian Ebape could not be missing from this team. He’s one of the hottest names in football and if he stays free over the summer he has the right to sign a pre-contract wherever he wants. Paris Saint-Germain definitely does not want to lose one of its biggest stars and continues to push for a contract extension.

At the same time, Real Madrid remain his most likely target from the new season onwards as the Merengues have been chasing him for the past few years. So it is estimated that it won’t be long before the French superstar wears the white jersey. So far, however, he has expressed his loyalty to Paris Saint-Germain and that his only concern is to win the Champions League with her.

On the bench

Of course, there are not just 11 stars who can sign where they want from January. So there are some other very high market value players who have stayed on the … Several transfer scenarios have also been heard from them. Some can innovate with their team while others will pursue their rich careers elsewhere.

In the summer of 2022, the following will remain free of charge:

• Andre Onana (Ajax – € 17 million)
• Andreas Christensen (Chelsea – € 35 million)
• Cesar Athpilicueta (Chelsea – € 11m)
• Dennis Zakaria (Gladbach – € 27 million)
