    Leeds United are exploring a move for Eintracht Frankfurt winger Jean-Matteo Bahoya.

    It follows the collapse of the 21-year-old's proposed move to Hull City over concerns about a switch to the East Yorkshire club.

    However, with time running out before the transfer deadline, Bahoya is now considering a move to Yorkshire rivals Leeds.

    Leeds had been interested in signing Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk, but the Ukraine international has instead opted to join Tottenham.

    I think Liverpool have made great signings. What's crazy is that they still look light. I still think they need a DM, a new RB and another CB. But those things clearly aren't happening and they've spent plenty enough money. I think they'll just have to wait until next window.

    Harry

    So, another transfer window is ending without Liverpool buying a midfielder. Curtis Jones sold and Harvey Elliot loaned out. This has disturbing echoes of 2020 when we sold a centre-back and didn’t replace him - that didn’t end well.

  3. Ones to watch - Ismaila Sarr to Liverpool

    Liverpool had turned their attentions to Crystal Palace's Ismaila Sarr after having two bids for Yankuba Minteh rejected by Brighton.

    The Seagulls want more than the £60m offered by Liverpool and it remains to be seen whether Andoni Iraola's side go back in for him.

    Like the Gambian, Sarr is a right-sided winger and the Reds initially enquired about the Senegal international last week, but that was rebuffed by Crystal Palace.

    Now that it looks like Cody Gakpo is staying on Merseyside, will Sarr be staying in London?

  4. Liverpool

    Lack of signings? Liverpool have brought in Bradley Barcola for £123m from Paris St-Germain as well as defender Jeremy Jacquet and Victor Munoz.

    Is is perhaps that the Reds have strengthened in the wrong areas?

    There has been no panic buying either from Andoni Iraola's side despite their poor start to the season.

    I’m not surprised at Liverpool’s lack of signings given the outlay of last seasons signings. We have still spent maybe £200M this summer? I think the players such as Wharton who fit Iraola’s system will be January or next summer buys - for a cheaper price when Palace get relegated.

    Kurt

    If Liverpool don't buy another full back in this window the questions need to be asked, we need both a left back and right back.

  6. Leeds reach verbal agreement for Frankfurt winger Bahoya

    Leeds United have reached a verbal agreement with Eintracht Frankfurt to sign Jean-Matteo Bahoya.

    The deal is an initial loan with an obligation to buy for £25.7m.

    Leeds are now racing to complete the paperwork before the transfer deadline as they look to strengthen their options on the wing.

    Bahoya's arrival would pave the way for Willy Gnonto to join Fiorentina.

    Any deal for Gnonto must be completed by 19:00 BST to meet the Italian transfer deadline.

  7. Liverpool

    As a side bar to that Liverpool signing...

    We are of course waiting for the transfer spending record to be broken. It's expected it will happen today with only £13m to go to pass the previous mark of pass £3.14bn from 12 months ago.

    The signing of Lucca Brughmans for £30m will not contribute to that total as he is heading straight back out on loan, which means it will contribute to next summer's spending.

  8. Liverpool sign keeper Brughmans

    Liverpool have completed the signing of 18-year-old goalkeeper Lucca Brughmans from Belgian side Genk in a deal that could be worth up to £30m including add-ons.

    Brughmans has agreed a six-year contract with Liverpool and will remain at Genk on loan this season before moving to Anfield ahead of the 2027-28 campaign.

    The Belgian keeper, who is 6ft 7in, has started all four of Genk's games this season and has represented his country at youth level.

    BBC Sport understands that there is an initial fee alongside follow up payments and the figure of around £30m is at the top of what can be achieved.

  9. 'Woltemade loan benefits both sides'

    Former Newcastle defender John Anderson on Nick Woltemade's loan to Juventus:

    "We felt like he might be better off going to another European league where the pace of the game isn't as quick, isn't as physical, may well suit him more. I think when Fernandez-Pardo came in it just opened the door for Nick Woltemade to get away to play regular first-team football because I don't think it was ever going to be the case here."

    "Osula has moved ahead of him. Wissa has had an outstanding start to the season and with Fernandez-Pardo coming in you would think that he was going to jump ahead of him as well. So I think it benefits both sides to be quite honest."

    Woltemade, a goal involvement in almost every three games for his first season in the Premier League in an underperforming team. How is that a failure?

    So Nick Woltemade's move to Serie A is confirmed.

    Another striker whose Premier League career has not amounted to much. The German scored 11 goals in 53 appearances across all competitions and provided six assists.

    It comes after Juventus also announced the signing of Pape Matar Sarr from Tottenham on an initial loan deal earlier today.

    Thoughts, Newcastle fans?

    Newcastle United

    Newcastle have confirmed Nick Woltemade has moved to Seria A side Juventus on loan for the rest of the 2026-27 season.

    The German forward featured in 51 games and scored 11 goals in all competitions last season under Eddie Howe.

    The 24-year-old joined the Magpies in August 2025 in a club record £69m deal.

    Coventry City defender Liam Kitching has joined Sheffield United on loan for the remainder of the 2026-27 season.

    The 26-year-old played in 41 games in all competitions during Frank Lampard's promotion season with the Sky Blues, but he has not featured in the opening two games of the Premier League season.

  14. Ah, sorry Harry. I do have some Coventry news but it's going the other way...

    Coventry fan, hoping to see us push for a back up left-back and left winger. Cant see us getting anything. Slightly worried even though we're only 2 games in.

  16. Brentford and Bournemouth updates

    Brentford are only working on the sale or loan of fringe players on deadline day.

    They say the squad Keith Andrews selected for his first two Premier League matches will remain unchanged.

    As for Bournemouth, they are completely finished unless a team comes in to sign defender Max Aarons.

    Reports linking Aarons with a move to Leeds United have proved wide of the mark.

    The Bees and the Cherries are a picture of calm on an otherwise manic Premier League deadline day.

  17. Toffees short of strikers?

    It hasn't really worked out for Beto at Everton, has it?

    He made 113 appearances for the Toffees across all competitions, scoring 25 goals and providing three assists.

    His departure leaves Everton fairly light in the striker department with Thierno Barry their main man now with Iliman Ndiaye nearing a move to Manchester City.

  18. Beto leaves Everton for Fiorentina

    Some news of a departure from the Hill Dickinson Stadium...

    Striker Beto has completed a reported £14.6m move from Everton to Fiorentina.

    The 28-year-old joined the Toffees from Udinese in a deal worth £25.8m in 2023.

  19. Actually, speaking of Everton, we do have some concrete news to bring you...

  20. Waiting game at Everton

    Phil McNulty
    BBC Sport chief football writer

    All quiet on actual concrete news at Everton but plenty going on behind the scenes in these final few hours before the deadline.

    The medical department is busy playing its part in deals for Jack Grealish, coming back on loan from Manchester City, United States striker Falorin Balogun signing in a £40m deal from AS Monaco and then Ainsley Maitland-Niles, who appears to be the solution to Everton's seemingly endless search for a right-back. He is costing about £3m from Lyon.

    These are the formalities Everton fully expect to complete.

    The trail has gone cold on the potential return of Richarlison to his former club from Spurs. That deal, which at one point looked on at £25m with Iliman Ndiaye heading to north London in a £60m move, looks very much off.

    Ndiaye, of course, is on his way to Manchester City in a £65m transfer.
