Juventus have held discussions with Udinese over a move for 23-year-old Danish centre-back Thomas Kristensen, who is also a target for Tottenham and Leicester City.

Leicester City are lining up an £8m deal for Argentine centre-half Valentin Gomez, 21, from Velez Sarsfield.

Crystal Palace, Leicester and Wolves are all interested in signing Newcastle United and Paraguay forward Miguel Almiron, 30, on loan in January.

Tottenham Hotspur are looking at the possibility of re-signing English midfielder Harry Winks, 28, having only sold him to Leicester last year.

Tottenham are keen on a move for Argentine midfielder Facundo Buonanotte, 19, but will have to compete with Leicester, where he is currently on loan from Brighton.
