Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer rumours, including Said Benrahma to Everton, Armando Broja to Wolverhampton Wanderers and Kasper Schmeichel to Nottingham Forest.

Everton are reportedly interested in signing West Ham United attacker Said Benrahma.

The 28-year-old has found it difficult to impress for the Hammers during the 2023-24 campaign, only managing one assist in 22 appearances in all competitions.

Benrahma's future has been the subject of speculation over the last few weeks, and according to HITC, Everton are keen to sign him before the end of the January transfer window.

The report claims that the Toffees want Benrahma as a replacement for Arnaut Danjuma, who is said to be on the verge of making the move to Lyon.

West Ham are allegedly keen to sell Benrahma, but it is understood that any move at this stage of the window is likely to be a loan.

The Algeria international, who has a contract at London Stadium until June 2026, has scored 24 goals and registered 19 assists in 155 appearances for the Hammers in all competitions.

Staying in the Premier League, Wolverhampton Wanderers allegedly remain keen to sign Chelsea forward Armando Broja before the end of the January transfer window.

The 22-year-old has found it difficult to make his mark for Chelsea during the 2023-24 campaign, only managing two goals and two assists in 19 appearances in all competitions.

According to the Daily Mail, Wolves view Broja as their 'top target for the number nine role', and the club remain interested in a £30m deal for him.

Gary O'Neil's side had allegedly been looking to sign the forward on loan, but Chelsea want a permanent sale before the end of the month.

Broja has only managed one goal and one assist in 13 Premier League appearances this season, while he has also netted once in two FA Cup outings.

Wolves now face a race against the clock to secure his signature before Thursday night's deadline.

Meanwhile, according to the Daily Mail, Nottingham Forest are considering moving for experienced goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel before the end of the month.

The 37-year-old made the move to Anderlecht from Nice last summer, and he has featured on 15 occasions for the Belgian club during the 2023-24 campaign, conceding 17 times.

Schmeichel only has a contract with his current side until the end of June, though, and he has been linked with a move away before the end of the transfer window.

Despite having Matt Turner and Odysseas Vlachodimos in their goalkeeping department, Forest are thought to be looking for a new stopper for the second half of the campaign.

Schmeichel last played in English football for Leicester City, and he famously won the Premier League title during his time at the King Power Stadium.

The Denmark international is hugely experienced in England's top flight, featuring on 284 occasions in the competition for Leicester and Manchester City.
