. Jordan Ibe - Bournemouth
Having signed from Liverpool for big money, wideman Ibe has not really hit it off down on the south coast. He was reluctant to move north in the summer, fewer and fewer minutes on the park may sway that in January. | Getty Images Photo: Marc Atkins
. Jarrod Bowen - Hull City
Steve Bruce loves him and United would be happy to sign him. The player was valued at £20m in the summer, which proved too rich for United and Bruce, who has a fractured relationship with the Hull hierarchy. His contract is up next summer. | Getty Images Photo: Justin Setterfield
