January 16, 2026
Sheffield United are keen on signing Barkley, according to Football Insider.
ANALYSIS
Barkley has struggled to play regularly at Aston Villa this season, and it wouldn't be surprising if the talented playmaker decides to leave the club in January looking for a more consistent role elsewhere. Barkley will aim to relaunch his career away from Villa Park, which might be the best course of action for him at this point.
