Transfer Market Starting To Heat Up

(Roberto Mancini being introduced at Manchester City)

As January gets nearer and nearer, start expecting more hints about what players may change squads during the winter transfer window.

One rumor has already been snuffed out; one involving Robinho moving from Manchester City to Barcelona. The Catalan giants reportedly had an offer turned down by the Manchester club. I made a post in October about this rumor; look back in the blog archives if you want to read all about it.

Speaking of Manchester City, the club recently sacked manager Mark Hughes after a string of disappointing results in the eyes of the directors. Former Inter Milan boss Roberto Mancini has succeeded Hughes at the Eastlands. Mancini has pledged to address City's defensive woes during the transfer period.

Start predicting who Manchester City will shell out big bucks for. Maybe an audacious move for Bolton's Gary Cahill will be in the works?

Stay tuned readers, because in a few days I will detail the year's best from around the world of soccer.
