Five January transfers that can make the difference in the Premier League

But his quality doesn’t suffer as a consequence of his versatility. The Toon are currently five points clear of relegation and with Almiron, they could aim for another top-ten finish.

Denis Suarez – Arsenal (loan)

Arsenal may have an injury crisis in defence, but they’ve bagged a player that Unai Emery has been after for some time.

The Gunners have been lacking an alternative to Alex Iwobi on the wing and Suarez could provide a new dimension.

Emery’s men are 2/1 for a top-four finish that the club so desperately crave. They are also second favourites for the Europa League win that offers another route to Champions League football next season.

Suarez definitely has the trust of his new manager and could be the difference in a tightly-contested top-four race.

Youri Tielemans – Leicester City (loan)

Leicester City won’t be in danger of the drop but Youri Tielemans could be the key factor in a league of fine margins.

It’s generally accepted the top-six are pretty impenetrable right now, but they could finish best of the rest.

Three points separate the Foxes in eleventh and Wolverhampton Wanderers in seventh.

Tielemans has already amassed 250 first-team appearances – and he’s still only 21-years-old.

If he continues to impress, he may not be returning to parent-club Monaco any time soon.

Peter Crouch – Burnley

Burnley wouldn’t have expected to be in this position after their impressive seventh-place finish last term.

But with the club at 2/1 to fall through the relegation trap-door, they’ve brought in genuine Premier League experience.

Crouchy, as he’s affectionately known, has 205 career goals and could still be a menace to top-flight defences.

He’s 23/10 to open his account for the Clarets against his former side Southampton.
