Crystal Palace are primarily looking to sign new wing-backs on both flanks, as well as a new central midfield player, as Oliver Glasner looks for more depth in these key positions of his 3-4-3 system.

England U20 left-back Archie Brown, who plays for Gent in Belgium, is one they looked at in the summer, while German media have linked them with the more experienced Jan-Niklas Beste, although he signed for Benfica in the summer.

Nathaniel Clyne, Joel Ward, Will Hughes, Jeffrey Schlupp and Remi Matthews see their contracts expire on June 30 so can speak to foreign clubs from January 1.

Luke Plange returns from a loan at HJK Helsinki while 21-year-old striker Ademola Ola-Adebomi, 21, could return from his loan at SK Beveren and go elsewhere, as two of several youngsters the club are trying to develop via loans.

Everton.

The Republic of Ireland international's situation at Brighton is under a cloud, but his club are not keen to loan the 20-year-old to a rival.

It would therefore take a permanent bid - and a big one at that.

Fulham are looking at new long-term striker options with Raul Jimenez among those out of contract on June 30, so he can speak to foreign clubs from January 1, although there is a one-year option that can be triggered - as is also the case for Adama Traore.

Kenny Tete and Tom Cairney, however, are not thought to have that option and will also enter the last six months of their contracts this month.

Ipswich.

Leicester are looking to strengthen at right-back, centre-back and with a winger in January if they can, as they look to try and stay in the Premier League under new manager Ruud van Nistelrooy.

Given tight financial constraints that remain in place, however, they are primarily looking at the loan market, although those will have to come from abroad with two Premier League loan spaces already filled in Odsonne Edouard and Facundo Buonanotte.

Leicester are also looking at players coming into the last six months of their contracts and - at right-back - one player they like in particular is Kyle Walker-Peters at Southampton, who is in that situation.

Jamie Vardy is the most prominent player whose contracts expires on June 30, so can speak to foreign clubs from January 1.

Newcastle are poised to try to do business but players will need to leave the club first.

There are a number whose futures are uncertain and have been for some time, including Kieran Trippier, Callum Wilson and Sean Longstaff, as well as others more on the periphery such as Martin Dubravka and Isaac Hayden.

Then there are those who see their contracts expire on June 30 so can speak to foreign clubs from January 1, including Fabian Schar, Jamaal Lascelles, Emil Krafth, John Ruddy and Mark Gillespie.

If the club can make new additions, they would most like to do so at right-wing and have joined Liverpool in closely monitoring the likes of Bryan Mbeumo and Antoine Semenyo.

They also tried hard to sign Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace as a new centre-back in the summer, with a string of bids turned down up until a final one of up to £65m.

Central midfielder, goalkeeper and right-back are also being looked at, while left-back Jamal Lewis officially returns to the club following a loan spell in Brazil with Sao Paulo.

Nottingham Forest

They may in turn bring back Shea Charles from his loan at Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship, and he is a promising player in his own right.

They also hope to keep Tyler Dibling, amid interest from a string of bigger clubs, following his burgeoning form, and want him to sign a new long-term contract - but he is yet to do so.

Two summer signings officially join the club on January 1 in Brazilian left-back Wellington, whom they bought from Sao Paulo, and 18-year-old Japanese striker Rento Takaoka from Nissho Gakuen.

Tottenham

Tottenham are looking to strengthen their squad this January, looking at a variety of positions given injuries to key players and the decline of form as a result.

Although he has done well under the circumstances, playing Archie Gray at centre-back has not been ideal so this is one area the club are looking to add depth, as well as in the forward positions and central midfield.

They wanted Conor Gallagher, or someone like him, in the summer, while Timo Werner was brought in on a loan deal in the winger positions rather than permanently, and the injuries to Richarlison and Wilson Odobert have left them short of options.

Spurs want those players back and competing for a place, and in particular Richarlison, who has no desire to go anywhere in January himself, Sky Sports News understands.
