Transfer news: Bruno Fernandes latest, Daniel Podence joins Wolves – live! | Football

In Manchester United deals actually going ahead, Bruno Fernandes is in Manchester now having his medical. But not before issuing a tearful video to Sporting Lisbon fans about how much he loved their club. “There were important moments that made a mark on my career. I went through many positive things and many negative things,” he told Sporting TV.

Breaking news: Wolves have managed to land the winger Daniel Podence from Olympiacos on a four and a half year deal for a fee thought to be around £17m, and here’s the now-obligatory portentous video montage to mark it.

Chelsea loaning out promising starlets is a January staple. And you can read about one such, Conor Gallagher, here. Ben Fisher met him for a chat, a couple of weeks into his loan spell at Swansea, about recovering from heart surgery, Frank Lampard and what he hopes to achieve at the Liberty and beyond.

What to make of a couple of today’s more eye-opening tidbits, Everton rebuffing a whopping £85m bid from Barcelona for Richarlison, and the speculation that Manchester United want another garlanded 30-something, Barça’s Ivan Rakitic? In stuff definitely happening, Sander Berge has arrived in south Yorkshire to finalise his move to Sheffield United from Genk.

First off, a couple of Championship deals to tell you about. Bristol City have secured a deal for second-tier perennial Nahki Wells from Burnley. Wells spent the first half of the season on loan at QPR, and now the forward is set to bolster the Robins’ attacking options. He’s due a medical at Ashton Gate later today. Elsewhere, Luton have signed Tottenham’s Cameron Carter-Vickers on loan to reinforce a defence that needs reinforcing; the Championship’s bottom club have shipped 63 goals this term.

Morning everyone, and welcome to our penultimate day of the transfer window liveblog, where we’ll be bringing you all the latest developments, endeavouring to sort transfer news wheat from chaff and generally make sense of things as clubs, players and Mr 15%s try to drag deals, coughing and wheezing, over the line. Or not. This is all either as thrilling and dramatic as football gets away from the pitch or a breathless absurd ritual of waving money in the public’s face, depending on your perspective, and how your club’s getting on in the market.

Anyway, on to business. Here’s a recap of some of the latest stories:
