Northern Ireland internationals Isaac Price and Daniel Ballard could be on the move in 2025 as several clubs weigh up a deal.

Standard Liege attacker Price is being tracked by Scottish Premiership giants Rangers, while Sunderland centre-back Ballard has captured the interest of several Premier League sides.

Wolves have joined Aston Villa, Brighton, Crystal Palace and Fulham on keeping tabs on the Black Cats defender.

New Wolves boss Vitor Pereira is fighting a relegation battle at Molineux and will look to strengthen his defence in January.

Championship promotion hopefuls Sunderland won’t want to lose Ballard, who has scored in consecutive games.

The 25-year-old, who has netted five goals in 28 appearances for Northern Ireland, joined the Mackems from Arsenal in July 2022 and has since extended his contract until the end of the 2027/28 season.

Ballard, along with his club and international team-mate Trai Hume, have the ability and leadership qualities to perform in the top flight.

Price, who has scored six goals in 18 international outings, has another two-and-a-half years left to run on his deal in Belgium but the Ibrox club, along with a mystery Championship side, are assessing the 21-year-old.

Philippe Clement and Nils Koppen are familiar with the Belgian market, while Gers youngster Ross McCausland can also offer an insight into his Northern Ireland team-mate’s character and ability.

Price’s stunning hat-trick against Bulgaria catapulted the former Everton youngster into the headlines and he was also on target in the 2-2 draw in Luxembourg as Northern Ireland held on for the point they needed to earn promotion to League B in the Nations League.

It’s thought Liege would seek at least £2.5million for Price, who featured in Sunday’s 1-0 loss to a Gent side defeated by Larne in the Uefa Conference League.
