5 players who could move in the January transfer window

#4 Olivier Giroud

Olivier Giroud is out of favour at Chelsea

Olivier Giroud has found it hard to break into the Chelsea team, especially under Frank Lampard as the Chelsea boss has preferred Michy Batshuayi and Tammy Abraham over him. He has only featured in the Premier League this season and he hasn't started any of those games.

So, it's quite obvious that he wants a move, especially because of the fact that UEFA Euro 2020 is coming closer. Over the past couple of days, numerous rumors have suggested that Giroud is on the verge of joining Inter Milan.

Olivier Giroud is getting closer to Inter. The French striker agreed personal terms yesterday (contract until June 2022) - now Inter and Chelsea are ‘close and confident’ to find total agreement on next days (around €5/6M to Chelsea). 🇫🇷 #transfers #Chelsea #Inter #CFC

As of now, nothing has been made official yet and it seems that a fee for the player is being negotiated. Whatever the case, right now, it looks like Antonio Conte wants the player and Giroud wants the move, so there's a good chance that the Frenchman will leave Chelsea this month.

#3 Ashley Young

Ashley Young is closing in on a move away from Manchester United

Ashley Young's contract is running out this summer and now that he hasn't signed a contract extension with Manchester United, it only makes sense that the Red Devils sell him in January, so that Young doesn't leave them on a free.

The Englishman would fit into Conte's system seamlessly, as he can play as a left wing-back and a right wing-back. With the rise of Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Brandon Williams at Manchester United, it seems Young will get more playing opportunities with Inter.

Similar to Giroud, this transfer now hinges on the fee that hasn't been agreed yet.

Ashley Young is getting closer and closer to Inter... talks ongoing with Man United to finalize the deal immediatly. Young agreed personal terms with Inter - contract until June 2021. 🔴 #MUFC #Inter #transfers
