The January transfer window is set to open, and Women’s Super League (WSL) clubs are already starting to make moves.
Tottenham made the first signing of the window back in November, with Signe Gaupset joining the club from SK Brann.
Gaupset, who will officially join the club on January 1st, is one of the most promising young players in Europe.
Some clubs are yet to do business but are expected to do so early in the January transfer window.
Arsenal have been heavily linked with Swedish international right-back Smilla Holmberg.
Winless Liverpool are desperate for signings after taking just three points in 11 games.
The Reds are reportedly close to signing Alice Bergstrom from BK Hacken.
