Welcome to Last Word On Football’s Football Transfer News, aiming to round-up the latest transfer rumours in football. Today, we look at which Chelsea<\/a> striker could be heading for the exit, and Arsenal<\/a>‘s pursuit of a new centre-back.<\/p>\n

Transfer Rumours: Chelsea, Tottenham, Arsenal and Crystal Palace<\/h2>\n

Transfer Rumours – Chelsea<\/h3>\n

According to Mark Irwin of The Sun<\/a>, Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud<\/a> could be set to leave Stamford Bridge, with Crystal Palace<\/a> a possible destination.<\/p>\n

The 33-year-old has received limited opportunities so far this season. He has made four appearances this campaign, three of which have been from the bench. Last season saw more success for the Frenchman, scoring 13 goals in all competition.<\/p>\n

As a result of his possible availability, Crystal Palace have been placed on alert. Giroud would certainly improve the Eagles’ front line, and push them into a position to challenge for a European place.<\/p>\n

Latest in the Christian Eriksen Saga<\/h3>\n

The saga surrounding Christian Eriksen<\/a>‘s potential move to Real Madrid<\/a> continues to dwindle on. According to Eldesmarque<\/a> in Spain, the Spanish giants are willing to offer Isco<\/a> and Mariano Diaz<\/a> in return for the Danish midfielder.<\/p>\n

Both Isco and Diaz are currently out-of-favour at Real Madrid. Isco has made just four appearances so far this season, while his team-mate is yet to feature.<\/p>\n

As a result, they could be included in the deal to bring Eriksen to the Bernabeu. The Tottenham Hotspur<\/a> midfielder is out of contract next summer and is able to negotiate a pre-contract agreement with clubs in Europe.<\/p>\n

Arsenal Chasing RB Leipzig Defender<\/h3>\n

Oli Gamp of the Daily Mail<\/a> writes that Arsenal<\/a> are chasing a deal for RB Leipzig defender Dayot Upamecano<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 20-year-old has made 80 appearances across four season with the Bundesliga side and has impressed when called upon. As a result, Arsenal are joined by AC Milan<\/a> in the battle for his signature.<\/p>\n

Arsenal are looking to add to their faltering defence. They’re are continually criticised for the mistakes that they make in key matches.<\/p>\n

Crystal Palace Looking at Alfredo Morelos<\/h3>\n

Olivier Giroud is not the only striker that Crystal Palace are looking at doing a deal for in January. According to Robert Grieve of the Scottish Sun<\/a>, they are looking to sign Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 23-year-old has built a reputation as a goalscorer during his time at Rangers. So far this season he has scored seven goals in 11 appearances in all competitions.<\/p>\n
