Merry Christmas! Santa may have delivered his gifts overnight but that won’t stop the Premier League action from coming as clubs seek to end 2023 with a bang. And in the background, there will be many outfits putting the pieces together to help start the New Year with positive activity in the January transfer window.

Arsenal will be the Premier League leaders for a second successive year after earning a 1-1 draw against Liverpool at Anfield on Saturday evening.

Manchester City are expected to catch up in pursuit of a fourth consecutive title at some point after lifting their inaugural FIFA Club World Cup this week – their fifth trophy of 2023.

All three clubs could look to do business next month, as will others battling for European spots, including Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa, West Ham United, Brighton and Hove Albion and Newcastle United.

The same can’t be said for Manchester United, who look cash-strapped in the final few months of the Glazer family’s rule over the sporting side of the club.

But Erik ten Hag may have hope of completing another few winter loans to help salvage what has been a disastrous season so far. Express Sport provides all the latest transfer updates from the Premier League and across the globe this Christmas Eve.
