Man United transfer news LIVE - Raphinha 'offer', Cole Palmer update, late midfielder move

Hello and welcome to the MEN's Manchester United live transfer blog on Friday, January 30.

The end of the January transfer window is nearly upon us and United are expected to be busy in the final few days. Transfer business could still happen at Old Trafford before Monday's February 2 deadline.

Despite a quiet window so far, United have been linked with some big moves in the last couple of weeks. Cole Palmer is the big name after reports suggested the Chelsea star was homesick.

Recently, Barcelona's Raphinha has emerged as a new target. The switch to a back four means United are expected to prioritise more attackers in the summer, with a new left winger needed.

On the pitch, we'll hear from Michael Carrick today ahead of United's Premier League clash against Fulham. After beating Manchester City and Arsenal in their last two games, United will be hoping to cement their Champions League hopes.
