#21 Oumar Niasse (Everton)

It was only last year that Oumar Niasse was in red-hot form for Lokomotiv Moscow in the Russian Premier League, causing Roberto Martinez to spend £13.5 million to bring him to Everton in the winter transfer window as a capable back-up to Romelu Lukaku.

However, since Koeman has taken over, Niasse has been frozen out, with Koeman demoting him to the Under-23 squad and refusing to hand him a squad number. Apparently also denied a locker as punishment for deciding to stay beyond the September 1 deadline, Niasse might well be on his way out of the club in January.

The talented striker has been banging in the goals for the U-23 side and with Galatasaray and Fenerbache interested in securing his services, Niasse might well move to Turkey to restart his career.

One of Japan’s greatest players ever, Keisuke Honda made a move to AC Milan in 2014 looking to revitalise the Serie A giants. However, things did not work out well for Honda at Milan and now the Japanese superstar looks set to move in January.

His agent, Hiroyuki Honda admitted that Honda was not in Milan’s plans:

“Keisuke is a great professional and his way of experiencing the sport means he will always respect Montella's choices," Honda told Calciomercato.com.

“So far we have not had contact with any other club. We'll wait for next month and, if there isn't the desire to continue together, we could start evaluating other offers."

Shanghai SIPG are said to be interested in securing the services and Honda might be tempted by a move back to his home continent of Asia.
