Transfer deadline day has provided plenty of drama over the years, from Robinho to Manchester City and Andy Carroll to Liverpool, but in recent years clubs have got better at completing their business early, though the current window has seen plenty of twists and turns at the top end of the Premier League, with more likely still to come.
With the addition of the Saudi Arabian league’s big spending and a later window closing date than most of Europe, some big clubs will still be nervous about potentially losing big players after their own window shuts, with the league already having attracted the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and more recently PSG star Neymar.
