Shockwaves were sent through world football at the weekend after Mo Salah accused Liverpool of throwing him under a bus and stating that he no longer has any kind of relationship with Arne Slot.
The outburst from Salah following Liverpool's draw with Leeds on Saturday evening has prompted speculation that he is set to leave Anfield this January.
For the latest updates on that story and the other big transfer news of the day, check out today's roundup below.

Al-Hilal are in the driving seat for Mo Salah transfer
Mo Salah will more than likely have plenty of suitors should he push for a move away from Anfield this winter, but the frontrunners, according to a report in the Sun, are Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal.
The Saudi giants have expressed an interest in signing Salah before, and they reportedly like the idea of linking the Egyptian up with his former Liverpool teammate, Darwin Nunez, who signed for the club in the summer.
Salah was once the subject of bids worth £150m from the Saudi Pro League, but it is highly unlikely that Liverpool will receive bids anywhere near this figure in January after the player made his feelings towards the club's hierarchy clear.
The 33-year-old has since been left out of Liverpool's Champions League squad for the clash with Inter Milan, in a move that will only tank his value further.
Manchester City are interested in Estevao
Manchester City are reportedly keeping a close eye on Chelsea winger Estevao ahead of a potential audacious move for the teenager next summer.
The Brazilian only signed for Chelsea last summer, but according to a report in Fichajes, the Cityzens are weighing up a £102.5m bid for him as Pep Guardiola continues his search for more attacking players.
Estevao has made a brilliant start to his Chelsea career, with his form prompting Enzo Maresca to compare the player to fellow teenage sensation, Lamine Yamal.
It's unlikely that Chelsea would entertain any bids for the player, who they view as the future of the club alongside the likes of Cole Palmer and Alejandro Garnacho. They don't need to, either, as Estevao's current deal at Stamford Bridge runs until 2033.
Liverpool target Ederson
Liverpool is reportedly eyeing a move for Atalanta midfielder Ederson, with Arne Slot keen for reinforcements in the middle of the park.
According to a report in Football Insider, the Brazilian is being tracked a number of clubs, but Liverpool and Barcelona are currently at the front of the queue should Atalanta listen to offers this winter.
It emerged over the weekend that the player's agent has refused a number of contract offers from the club, which could force the Italian outfit to put the 26-year-old up for sale this January to maximise the fee they receive.
The Football Insider report states that an offer worth €55m could be enough to convince Atalanta, and given Liverpool's issues in the middle of the park, they will be tempted to get this deal done at such a price.
