Saturday Transfer Gossip: Villa Doubt Garnacho Deal, Man Utd Candidates Fear Dressing Room Crisis, Chelsea and Liverpool Target £30m Star

Aston Villa have doubts about making Garnacho's loan deal permanent, Brighton plan to stand firm on Gomez, and Man United manager candidates are worried about the players, according to the latest transfer gossip from MatchHeadlines.

Aston Villa will think about pulling out of a permanent deal for 22-year-old Argentina winger Alejandro Garnacho if his form does not improve, says Football Insider. He is on loan from Chelsea. Villa are also ready to limit his game time so they do not trigger an appearance clause in his loan deal, as they did with Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott.

Brighton will not sell 23-year-old Paraguay midfielder Diego Gomez in January, says Teamtalk. Atletico Madrid and AC Milan are both interested.

People in the running to replace Michael Carrick at Manchester United think the dressing room is "out of control" and that the players talk too much, says the Telegraph.

Jadon Sancho, 26, is a free agent and wants to meet the Getafe coach before deciding whether to sign until the end of the season, says the Telegraph.

Antonio Rudiger, 33, is fully focused on life at Real Madrid despite links with Tottenham, says Bild.

Endrick, 20, could still leave Madrid on loan in January, even though Jose Mourinho said he would not, says Marca. Milan and Roma are both interested, and Roma look like the most realistic home because his playing time is still limited.

Liverpool are ready to take up their 55m euro (£46m) option on 27-year-old Uruguay defender Ronald Araujo if he keeps playing well, says Marca. He is on loan from Barcelona.

Barcelona midfielder Dani Olmo, 28, has no plans to leave despite links with Bayern Munich, says Sky Sports Germany.

Atletico are open to taking up their 25m euro (£21m) option on 26-year-old Canada forward Jonathan David, says Sky Sports Germany. He is on loan from Juventus and has three goals in five league games. No final decision has been made, but talks between the clubs are planned.

Chelsea and Liverpool lead the race for 18-year-old Benfica right-back Daniel Banjaqui, says TEAMtalk. An opening fee of around £30m could be enough.

Arsenal and Liverpool have stepped up their interest in 21-year-old Russia attacking midfielder Aleksey Batrakov of Galatasaray, says TEAMtalk. Both sent scouts to see him score in a 4-2 win over Lille. United, Chelsea and Manchester City are watching too, and he has a 60m euro release clause.

Chelsea, Bayern and Barcelona want 19-year-old Croatia defender Luka Vuskovic of Brighton, says TEAMtalk. He joined this summer for an initial £46m from Tottenham after a loan at Hamburg last season. For now, he is focused on helping Brighton chase a Champions League place.
