Let's take a look at the biggest transfer rumours from the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A and beyond as we head into the winter window RONALDO SET FOR MAN UTD RETURN Manchester United are watching with keen interest reports of a clash between Cristiano Ronaldo and senior Real Madrid figures, claims the Mirror . The newspaper states that the relationship between Ronaldo and Florentino Perez has broken down, leading to doubts over his future at the Bernabeu. And United would be well-placed to bring back the man who came to prominence should he refuse to continue in Spain. Ronaldo, it is claimed, has even made secret trips to England to review prospective private schools for his son in recent weeks. BARCA & LIVERPOOL AGREE RECORD FEE FOR COUTINHO Philippe Coutinho is set to become the Premier League's most expensive sale in history with a £125 million move to Barcelona, according to the Express . The Brazilian has been a target at Camp Nou for months, but the Blaugrana failed to agree terms with Liverpool over the summer. Negotiations have continued, however, and Coutinho could be lining up at Barca as early as next season if the bumper bid is accepted. JOAO MARIO SLATED AS MKHITARYAN'S REPLACEMENT Inter star Joao Mario has been earmarked by Manchester United as the ideal replacement for Henrikh Mkhitaryan, according to the Sun . United's Armenian playmaker is unsettled at Old Trafford, and has been linked with Inter among other clubs. Should he move to Serie A, however, United will try and swoop for the Nerazzurri's Portugal international in a £40 million switch. PALMEIRAS UP ASKING PRICE FOR BARCA TARGET MINA Yerry Mina's long-awaited move from Palmeiras to Barcelona has been frustrated again after the Brazilians upped their asking price, claims Sport . The Colombia defender is the subject of negotiations between the two clubs, and had been expected to move to Camp Nou for months. Barca's offer of €2 million to bolster the initial €9m paid out as a first option last summer, however, has been flatly rejected by the Sao Paulo side. MADRID OFFER SPURS BALE FOR KANE SWAP Real Madrid are ready to offer Tottenham cash plus former Spurs star Gareth Bale in order to complete the signing of Harry Kane, according to the Daily Star . Kane has powered his way into Europe's elite with an outstanding 2017, outscoring both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo over the last 12 months. And that form has put him firmly in the gaze of Madrid, who would be prepared to sacrifice the player they made the world's most expensive ever back in 2013 by sending him back to White Hart Lane. WEST HAM TOLD HOW MUCH MAWSON WILL COST West Ham will have to shell out £40 million if they wish to land Alfie Mawson from Swansea City in January, claims the Sun . Mawson, 23, has been one of the few bright spots this season for Swansea as they battle relegation from the Premier League. The defender, therefore, will not be allowed to leave for a knockdown price due to his importance to the Swans' basement fight. LAFC OFFERS $8.4M FOR BENFICA'S HORTA LAFC has made an $8.4 million bid for Benfica midfielder Andre Horta, according to A Bola . The 21-year-old is on loan with Braga, but both he and Benfica are reportedly interested in reaching an agreement that would see him move to MLS for the 2018 season. MONACO, FENERBAHCE INTERESTED IN LAWRENCE Monaco, Fenerbahce and Trabzonspor are interested in New York Red Bulls left back Kemar Lawrence, according to Turkish newspaper Gunebakis . The 25-year-old, who reportedly could yield a $2 million transfer fee, made 27 MLS appearances for the Red Bulls last season and was a key part of Jamaica's run to the Gold Cup final. MADRID PLOT SHOCK UMTITI APPROACH Real Madrid are considering a shock approach to sign Barcelona defender Samuel Umtiti, claims Diario Gol . Madrid president Florentino Perez wants to sign a new centre-back, but is wary of paying too much after seeing Liverpool spend £75 million on Virgil van Dijk. However, the €60m release clause in Umtiti’s contract makes him an attractive proposition for Perez, and he could rival Manchester City and Manchester United for the France international. CHELSEA WATCH PORTO LEFT-BACK Article continues below Chelsea are watching Porto left-back Alex Telles with a view to an approach in the January transfer window, reports A Bola . Antonio Conte has been looking for extra options at left-back and has long been pursuing Juventus’ Brazil international Alex Sandro. However, Conte has now dispatched his scouts to check on Alex Sandro’s compatriot Telles, who has been impressing for Porto.***prbxselfnetwork***
