Time is ticking with just hours left of the transfer window. What deals could still be done? And what's in the pipeline for the summer? Here's all the latest gossip.
Endrick's instant impact on loan at Lyon has put Premier League clubs on red-alert. Chelsea were linked with the teenager earlier this week, while Fichajes claim more English outfits have now joined the chase. Sunderland, Spurs and Leeds will all move if Real Madrid consider a permanent summer sale.
Liverpool require a right-back after injuries to Conor Bradley and Jeremie Frimpong, but have seen interest in Lutsharel Geertruida and Denzel Dumfries rebuffed, as Arne Slot looked to go Double Dutch.
Inter emphatically dismissed reports the Reds could land the latter before the deadline, with president Beppe Marotta describing the likelihood as 'absolutely no chance'.
That's that, then.
Some significant striker moves look set to crumble before the deadline. Fabrizio Romano's reporting thatJean-Philippe Mateta's move to Milan is off, after medical tests. That could complicate Crystal Palace's own move for Jorgen Strand Larsen, after the Norwegian had been lined up as Mateta's replacement.
Fulham are also set for frustration. Despite agreeing a deal for Ricardo Pepi, PSV are set to pull the plug. The Eredivisie leaders have not been able to find a suitable replacement in time.
For those who had indeed forgotten,Kalvin Phillips is still a Manchester City player. The former £42m signing has been in the wilderness at at the Etihad after a series of underwhelming loans.
He's set for another temporary stint, this time at second-tier strugglersSheffield United, according to Sky Sports. Once dubbed 'The Yorkshire Pirlo', will a return to his home county spark a renaissance?
Another player who could probably benefit from a change of scenery isDwight McNeil. Crystal Palace are 'showing late interest' in signing the winger, say the BBC, though Everton are demanding a £20m fee.
