Middlesbrough transfer runours: Boro unlikely to let defender remain on loan at Nottingham Forest, Swansea City star unaware of Leicester City link

Christmas is just days away now which means the January transfer window is set to open very soon as EFL Championship clubs get ready to do business.

Sheffield United could be amongst the first clubs to get a deal done as they are apparently “very close” to completing a deal for non-league defender, beating Hull City and Cardiff City to the player’s signature.

Meanwhile, cold water has been poured on a number of rumours which have been doing the rounds lately as it now appears that Preston North End will not be letting a striker leave next month while Middlesbrough are unlikely to allow a defender to stay on loan at Nottingham Forest.

Huddersfield Town have been given a pre-January boost as it’s suggested that Leeds United are no longer pursuing a deal for one of their star players while a former Blackburn Rovers striker has urged a current Ewood Park favourite to remain with the club.

A Nottingham Forest defender could be leaving in January with a long list of clubs waiting to snap him up while Watford and QPR are fighting it out to land a Bournemouth icon.

Another current Bournemouth star is in advanced talks over signing a new deal with the Cherries while a Swansea City attacker has said he knows nothing about rumours linking him with a £10 million move to Leicester City.
