    Monk also said Anderlecht's Aleksandar Mitrovic is "not a target" for the club, despite reports in Belgium saying otherwise.

    He also hinted that interest in Norwich defender Martin Olsson has cooled, following a bid from Swansea that failed to match Norwich's valuation.

    The Swansea boss was also asked about Aaron Lennon and Bryan Ruiz.

    "You're really plucking these out now," he told a reporter. "I don't know how many more we're going to be linked to."

    Former Manchester United, and Salford City part-owner, Gary Neville tweets:, external Incredible story on Sadiq El Fitouri (see below). Well done to Phil and Scholesy for showing belief in a lad who was out of the game!

  4. Done deal - Man Utd sign defenderpublished at 14:59 Greenwich Mean Time 30 January 2015

    Calm down Manchester United fans. They haven't signed Mats Hummels. Or Ron Vlaar.

    Sadiq, 20, has signed an 18-month contract with United. He joined Salford City in December after being released by Manchester City.

    Salford part-owner Phil Neville says: "We are immensely proud that our club has been able to give an opportunity to a boy who had the determination and passion to play without necessarily having the chances."

  6. Swansea news conferencepublished at 14:53 Greenwich Mean Time 30 January 2015

    Swansea boss Garry Monk has been talking about midfielder Jack Cork, who is close to joining the Welsh club from Southampton.

    "I understand there was an offer in place with a new contract [at Southampton], for whatever reason he decided not to sign that contract," said Monk.

    "We're very pleased to have him at the club - or have him very soon. He's already got good experience at this level. Playing in a good team at a good club, his grounding's very good. He's still at a good age to develop him into a top midfielder."

  7. Southampton news conferencepublished at 14:49 Greenwich Mean Time 30 January 2015

    Southampton boss Ronald Koeman says there is "a good chance" that one or two new faces may arrive before the transfer window shuts.

    "If Jack Cork leaves the club we need another midfielder," says Koeman. "We are interested in Vilhena because he is not happy at Feyenoord. He is not playing. I believe in the player, I believe in his quality, he is a young player and if I can help the player I like to do that."

    On Benfica's Djuricic: "I'm interested in the player. He is a good young player who can play in different positions. It is a good chance that one of the two players could join - and maybe both players."

  11. Get involvedpublished at 14:29 Greenwich Mean Time 30 January 2015

    Chelsea striker Diego Costa's three-match ban for stamping on Liverpool defender Emre Can has created a furore on social media. What do you think?

    Hannah:, external It's not the ban for Diego Costa I'm annoyed about, it's the FA's inconsistency. Aguero's double-footed stamp on Luiz got nothing.

    Joel Fentem:, external Remember last season when Yaya Toure stamped on someone and didn't get retrospectively banned. There is a campaign against Chelsea.

  12. Southampton news conferencepublished at 14:25 Greenwich Mean Time 30 January 2015

    "Not any news at the moment, the club is still talking with him to keep him here," says Koeman.

    "A lot of rumours but there has been no bid for Clyne. We've had no contact from Manchester United."

  13. Graves nominated for ECB chairmanpublished at 14:23 Greenwich Mean Time 30 January 2015

    Graves said: "I am most grateful and honoured to have been nominated by the First Class Counties and the MCC for the role of ECB chairman."

  14. Southampton news conferencepublished at 14:21 Greenwich Mean Time 30 January 2015

    Southampton midfielder Jack Cork is talking to Swansea about a potential move, says Saints boss Ronald Koeman.

    "Jack is now in Swansea. The club offered him a very good contract, but his feeling was that it was not good to stay longer here because he wants to play more games. I can't guarantee players that. I have good competition in midfield.

    "His contract finishes at the end of this season and if he doesn't accept the contract then for the coach it is an easy question.

    "But there is no chance he will play against us on Sunday."

  15. Southampton news conferencepublished at 14:14 Greenwich Mean Time 30 January 2015

    Saints boss Ronald Koeman urges his side to rediscover their defensive stability - or face the consequences against visitors Swansea on Sunday.

    The Dutchman watched his team concede three times in their FA Cup defeat by Crystal Palace last week.

    "We have to defend better against Swansea than we did against Crystal Palace because it was poor defending. I was surprised about that because usually it is one of our strengths. We have kept a lot of clean sheets."

  16. Burnley respond to Ings speculationpublished at 14:14 Greenwich Mean Time 30 January 2015

    We brought you the news earlier of Liverpool's interest in signing striker Danny Ings from Burnley.

    In a statement, Burnley said: "This kind of deal is prohibited by the Premier League under rule V7 which states that a player cannot be purchased and loaned back between Premier League clubs in the same transfer window."

    Chief Executive Lee Hoos added: "This type of move would violate Premier League rule V7 regarding transfers so simply cannot happen. Over the course of the window, the player himself, Sean Dyche and the chairman have made it clear he won't be going anywhere and we consider that the end of the matter."

  17. Southampton news conferencepublished at 14:11 Greenwich Mean Time 30 January 2015

    The scene is set for the next of our Premier League managers. Enter stage left Ronald Koeman!

    The Southampton manager unfolds a piece of paper and plonks it on the desk in front of him. Don't think I've seen a top-flight boss do that since the infamous Rafa Benitez rant....
