Christmas is nearing and so is one of the most exciting time for the football fans, The January Transfer Window. The transfer window is almost back with its surprises, and we are ready to witness some Big-Money-Transfers yet again. The January transfer window has a unique charm of its own. It not only provides record breaking transfers but also makes and breaks the teams, ultimately shaping the final league standings and determines the trophy holders.
This current season has undoubtedly been one of the craziest ones. Unexpected and unprecedented rise and fall of various teams and players have made this coming period more exciting than ever.
It is certain that we are going to witness a significant number of transfers this season, but some big name players are most likely to swap clubs in the coming month. Let us take a look at the top five transfer targets for this January transfer window.
Edinson Cavani
Ever since his move to the French giants Paris Saint Germaine, Edinson Cavani has somewhat lived under the shadow of Zlatan Ibrahimovic. French giants picked him as a successor for the big ageing Swede but Zlatan continued to perform the way he was doing, and this has unsettled Edinson Cavani. There is no doubt that Cavani is one of the world’s best. As a result, there will be no shortage of potential suitors once the Uruguayan decides to move away from the French capital. Premier League strugglers Chelsea are reportedly monitoring his situation very carefully as they believe him to be the man who can turn sour into sweet for them. Arsenal and Athletico Madrid are other big clubs who are looking to prize him away from the French capital. However, a player of his quality will definitely put a hole in anyone’s pocket. PSG are looking for over $45 million for their star man. However, the pursuing clubs will not back down due to this price tag.
STATS: Cavani has been a consistent scorer for the Parisians as he has scored 16 goals in 26 matches in all competitions. Moreover, he maintains an incredible 2.8 shots per game at this moment. His aerial capabilities and finishing make him a complete attacker.
