RVP and Walcott to reunite

Sir Alex Ferguson seems to have a penchant for hurting Arsenal fans. Just months after he prised Robin van Persie away from the Emirates, he is set to raid the Gunners once more with Theo Walcott reportedly headed to Old Trafford in January, according to the Daily Mirror. With Tuesday's reports that Nani is on Arsene Wenger's wishlist, a straight swap could improve the chances of Walcott joining United. 

Brazilian midfielder Paulinho could be playing for more than a trophy if Corinthians and Chelsea meet in the Club World Cup final. The 24-year-old is on Rafa Benitez's radar, The Sun claims, and a serious injury to Oriol Romeu could increase his chances of moving to Stamford Bridge next month. Paulinho has been in Roman Abramovich's sights for a while and an impressive performance in Japan could be his ticket to England. 

Speculation over Brendan Rodgers' impending spending spree at Anfield has intensified, with the Daily Mail reporting that Liverpool have edged even closer to recruiting Chelsea's Daniel Sturridge and Blackpool's Tom Ince. Although Walcott is still in Rodgers' plans, United's interest could see the Reds focus on attaining the aforementioned attacking duo. It is believed Sturridge and Ince will cost Liverpool £18 million - not cheap considering they let Ince walk out of the club - meaning they may well look to offload some of their squad to boost the coffers.
