Arsenal outcast Mesut Ozil has dropped his strongest hint yet he could be on his way to Fenerbahce.<\/strong><\/p>\n

AC Milan meanwhile have been linked with a move for Chelsea defender Fikayo Tomori while Tottenham are being linked with a double swoop as the January Transfer Window<\/a> continues to gather momentum.<\/p>\n

Ozil names next destinations<\/h2>\n

Source: Twitter Q@A<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Mesut Ozil has fuelled talk of a move to Fenerbahce after insisting they are the only Turkish club he would be willing to sign for.<\/p>\n

Frozen out of the Arsenal first-team under Mikel Arteta, Ozil has been strongly linked with a move away from the Emirates this month with Fenerbahce and MLS side DC United holding talks<\/a> with the playmaker.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Responding during a Twitter Q&A, Twitter wrote: “I grew up as a Fenerbahce fan as a kid in Germany – every German-Turkish person supports a Turkish team when they grow up in Germany. And mine was Fenerbahce. Fenerbahce is like Real Madrid in Spain. The biggest club in the country.”<\/p>\n

After being asked if he will continue his career when his contract with Arsenal ends, he added: “I definitely will. There are two countries I want to play football in before I retire: Turkey and United States. If I went to Turkey, I could only go to Fenerbahce.”<\/p>\n

Milan contact Chelsea over Tomori move<\/h2>\n

Fikayo Tomori is on AC Milan’s January transfer list, according to reports.<\/p>\n

After breaking into the first-team last season, Tomori has struggled for game time this season with Kurt Zouma and Thiago Silva now Frank Lampard’s preferred pairing at the back.<\/p>\n

According to Fabrizio Romano, Milan have contacted Chelsea over the possibility of a move this month with Tomori thought to be receptive over a move to the San Siro.<\/p>\n

Strasbourg defender Mohamed Simakan is Milan’s first choice target this month but should they be unable to pull off that deal they will move for Tomori.<\/p>\n

Tottenham chase Gonzalez<\/h2>\n

Tottenham<\/a> have reportedly joined Leeds and Juventus in the hunt for Stuttgart winger Nicolas Gonzalez.<\/p>\n

The 22-year-old grabbed a goal and an assist in Stuttgart’s win over Augsburg on Sunday. Gonzales, who has five goals this term, is contracted until 2024 with the Bundesliga club.<\/p>\n

The report claims Stuttgart will hold out for a fee in the region of \u20ac30million. Spurs are said to have held preliminary talks but face competition from Juventus and Leeds.<\/p>\n

Upamecano to Bayern?<\/h2>\n

Bayern Munich are reportedly in advanced talks over a January deal for Dayot Upamecano.<\/p>\n

Marca claims Bayern are poised to trigger Upamecano’s \u00a340million release clause this month.<\/p>\n

The Bundesliga champions are set to lose David Alaba on a free transfer in the summer and Hansi Flick is keen to get a replacement through the door.<\/p>\n

Alaba is said to have his sights set firmly on a move to Real Madrid depite links to Liverpool.<\/p>\n

Spurs eye Militao loan deal<\/h2>\n

Source: Corriere dello Sport<\/a><\/p>\n

Tottenham have reportedly contacted Real Madrid over a possible loan move for Eder Milit\u00e3o.<\/p>\n

The Brazilian defender joined Real from Porto for a significant fee in 2019 but is no longer part of the club’s plans having played just 134 minutes in LaLiga this term.<\/p>\n

Militiao has been linked with Roma, AC Milan and Inter but Corriere dello Sport claims Spurs are now pressing ahead, and keen to negotiate a loan deal with the option of making the agreement permanent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
