With the January transfer window now less than two weeks away, transfer speculation is through the roof across the country.
The futures of Antoine Semenyo and Mohamed Salah are expected to dominate the January window, with both men reportedly eying the exit doors at their respective clubs.

Man Utd to push for Semenyo
Manchester United are reportedly prepared to go all out to sign Antoine Semenyo this winter, with the Red Devils desperate to bring the Bournemouth winger to Old Trafford.
According to a report from James Ducker in the Telegraph, Man Utd feel that there could be a window of opportunity to sign Semenyo this January, with the uncertainty around Pep Guardiola's future at Man City potentially turning the winger away from the Etihad Stadium.
Semenyo has a release clause of £65m that is effective this January, and several clubs are reportedly circling, including both Manchester clubs.
However, reports on Thursday indicated that Pep Guardiola is increasingly likely to walk away from Man City in the summer, which could have an impact on Semenyo's decision.
Bayern Munich to target Bruno Fernandes
While Man Utd are keen on bringing players in this January, they will also do well to keep hold of certain members of their first team squad.
Bruno Fernandes recently conducted an interview with the Portuguese press where he criticised some of his fellow players and the club's hierarchy. The midfielder even claimed that the club wanted to sell him last summer.
Now, according to a report in Fichajes, Bayern Munich are preparing a bid of £50m for Fernandes, which they could submit this winter.
While it's unlikely that any bid for Fernandes will be accepted mid-season, this is a situation that is worth keeping an eye on as we approach the summer months.
Brennan Johnson is linked with three PL clubs
Tottenham forward Brennan Johnson is reportedly a top target for three Premier League clubs this January, with the Welshman seeking more minutes ahead of Wales' World Cup playoffs in March.
According to a report in TEAMtalk, Johnson is a target for Crystal Palace, Bournemouth and Aston Villa, who would all be able to offer the winger what he is seeking for the second half of the season.
The report states that Tottenham are willing to negotiate on a move for Johnson, but their preference would be for a loan deal until the end of the season.
Johnson has found life frustrating under Thomas Frank, and has failed to kick on after scoring the winner in the Europa League final at the end of last season.
