Breaking news – players leaving club in January after Mourinho sacking, first exit announced

According to the Mirror, Premier League club Swansea City have lodged a bid to sign Chelsea striker Loic Remy on a loan deal. Swans are currently struggling at the 17th position in Premier League, and a striker is their top priority in the January transfer window.

After his goal scoring run in the earlier parts of the season, Bafetimbi Gomis has found the goals hard to come by and the Welsh club have identified Remy as the solution to their problems. Remy has only started one game for Chelsea this season, and the London club might be willing to let go of the striker.

According to the report, Newcastle United and Crystal Palace are also interested in the 28-year old player. Swansea also tried to sign Remy in the summer transfer window.
Juan Cuadrado to Barcelona

Barcelona are interested in signing Chelsea winger Juan Cuadrado, according to ITA Sport Press.

Cuadrado is currently playing for Serie A champions Juventus on a season-long loan after failing to impress at Stamford Bridge during the second half of the last season. According to the report, Barcelona are ready to compete with Juventus for the signatures of the Colombian international at the end of his loan spell.

The Catalan club is expected to make a €25m (£18.1m) bid for the 27-year old.
