Transfer news and rumours today

MILLWALL SIGN WALLACE


Millwall have signed winger Jed Wallace from Wolves for an undisclosed fee.

The 23-year-old has put pen to paper on a three-year contract and moves to The Den on a permanent deal, following loans spells with the London club during the past two seasons.

Wallace has made a total of 35 appearances for the Lions, scoring four goals, and was part of the squad which won promotion to the Championship via the League One play-offs last month.

"Jed is a great young man. He's had two loan spells at The Den and thoroughly enjoyed his time here - he was adamant he wanted to come back, too. His desire to come and play for Millwall has been really strong," Millwall boss Neil Harris said.

"I think everyone has seen the attributes he brings and will bring to Championship football. He's a natural wide player, has pace, energy and work ethic and also end product. That's going to be really key towards us having a successful year in The Championship."

BURTON LAND WARNOCK


Burton have signed experienced defender Stephen Warnock on a one-year deal.

The 35-year-old, a former England international who has also played for Liverpool, Blackburn, Aston Villa, Leeds and Derby, arrives at the Pirelli Stadium following his departure from Wigan, who were relegated from the Championship last season.

"Stephen is a good, experienced full-back," Burton boss Nigel Clough told the club's official website.
"We always liked him when he played for Derby and obviously at Wigan most recently. He will give us that experience that you need in the Championship.

"He will bring all the qualities and all the experience - it's ideal and we think he will complement the defenders that we've already got."


FORMER ENGLAND BOSS REASSURES ROONEY OVER CHINA


Sven-Goran Eriksson has reassured Wayne Rooney he would have a "positive experience" if he moved to the Chinese Super League.

Speaking to the Daily Mail, the former England boss said: “I hear a lot that China is not a good place to live for foreign people but that could not be further from the truth.

“I haven’t spoken to Rooney for a long time, so I don’t know what he is thinking, but if he went to China I think he would have a positive experience.”

What Manchester United need to improve after defeat.

Right wing issue continues Bordeaux's left-footed right winger Malcom was United's early January target before Alexis Sanchez became attainable. How to accommodate him in a Premier League fixture was the obvious quandary and Jose Mourinho did so by shifting Anthony Martial to the right flank, which was an obvious error. It was to Martial's credit he fashioned a couple of openings during the first-half horror show and he still spent the majority of it on the fringes, as the enterprising Sanchez troubled Tottenham with his darts across the attacking line. Jesse Lingard did not vindicate the decision to keep him behind Romelu Lukaku. Martial was the inevitable fall guy, given the Sanchez signing and Lingard's fabulous form. Lingard is perhaps the least talented of the trio and it was telling that at the start of the second half he was moved to the right and Martial occupied his favoured left wing berth. The irony is Martial was poorer ther...

How Manchester United reacted on transfer window changes

Manchester United voted against an early transfer window closure next year because of the 'disadvantage' Premier League clubs could suffer, according to Jose Mourinho.   Manchester United, Manchester City, Swansea, West Ham, Crystal Palace and Watford were the only Premier League clubs to vote against the proposal to close the 2018 summer transfer window on the Thursday before the top-flight domestic season starts, while another abstained. Fourteen clubs voted in favour of the window closing on August 9. Mourinho had previously admitted he would be in favour of an early closure but stressed United must refuse to deal with any prospective buyers after the Premier League window shuts, since European clubs will be free to sign Premier League players until the end of August. "My thoughts are by the coach's point of view, Jose Mourinho as the head coach of Manchester United," he said. "Obviously, I am in favour of that because if I f...

Jose Mourinho give transfer update on fourth target

Jose Mourinho does not expect Manchester United to clinch their fourth priority target before the transfer window closes. MUFC Daily News understand that Mourinho had settled on signing a centre-back, a defensive midfielder, a winger and a striker ahead of the new season but United have failed to recruit a wide player so far. Victor Lindelof, Romelu Lukaku and Nemanja Matic have arrived but the club had bids rejected by Internazionale for Ivan Perisic and Danny Rose's flirtation could not persuade United to bid for the Tottenham left-back, despite their interest. Mourinho said "Everyone knows I would like a fourth player and I can’t hide that because I had it in my mind," Mourinho reiterated during his press conference on Friday. "But I am happy if I am not going to have [a fourth player] and I don’t think I am going to have. "And I was the first to tell my board not to feel any kind of pressure from me in that respect, but probably n...
