Every summer, Transfer Deadline Day brings thrills, excitement, and promise to many clubs throughout the Premier League and all of Europe.

Even with the 2026/27 season already under way, clubs have been able to secure outside talent and bring players into the mix, both superstars and squad contributors alike.

Top Premier League clubs have spent big money already on the likes of Morgan Rogers, Elliot Anderson, Bradley Barcola, and many other star players, but there are still funds to be spent before the transfer window slams shut. Teams like Tottenham, Everton, Chelsea, and even defending champions Arsenal have been linked to other players who could join before the registration period ends.

Outside of Europe, other top clubs like Barcelona, Real Madrid, PSG, and many other big-name sides are looking to keep wheeling and dealing all the way up until the very end.

The Sporting News is tracking every Deadline Day deal as the transfer window nears a dramatic close.

All times ET.

DONE DEAL: Aston Villa sign Ibrahim Mbaye for $63.6m

6:39 a.m. - What a deal is this is for Villa! Paris Saint-Germain youngster Ibrahim Mbaye joins the Premier League club for a fee of around $63.6m. The teenager joins after Villa's interest in Rafael Leao ended last week.

RUMOR: Sunderland to sign Arsenal target Fofana

5:39 am. - Well, this one took a turn! Arsenal had looked like securing a deal for Malick Fofana today, but the Lyon winger is now heading for a Sunderland medical, David Ornstein reports.

RUMOR: Chelsea make offer for Lamine Camara

5:39 am. - Fabrizio Romano is reporting that Chelsea have made an offer to Monaco for midfielder Lamine Camara. Although the €45m ($52m / £38m) bid is said to be too low, this is a deal that could well get done before the deadline if Enzo Fernandez joins Man City.

DONE DEAL: Hull City sign striker Ansah

5:32 a.m. - Hull City have completed the signing of Ilyas Ansah from Union Berlin. Florian Plettenberg previously reported the fee was worth €24 million (£20.6m / $27.8m).

RUMOR: Chelsea trying to sign Manu Kone from Roma

5:28 a.m. - Sky in Italy are reporting that Chelsea want to push through a last-minute deal to sign midfielder Manu Kone from Roma. This appears to have come from initial discussions between the clubs about a possible loan for Jamie Gittens. However, Roma boss Gian Piero Gasperini has reportedly made it clear he does not want the club to sell Kone today.

DONE DEAL: Marc Guiu joins RB Leipzig from Chelsea

5 a.m. - Chelsea remain the masters of selling players. Striker Marc Guiu has joined RB Leipzig, with the fee reported by Fabrizio Romano to be £15 million ($20.3 million). That represents decent profit on a player signed for less than half that amount two years ago.

When does the Saudi Arabia transfer window close?

The window for clubs in the Saudi Pro League closes a little later than in Europe's major leagues, shutting on October 12.

Even though the Pro League has collectively dialled back its huge spending, this creates a useful period of time for players who have not secured a move within Europe to get on the move.

Is the MLS transfer window open?

The MLS extended its secondary transfer window to run from July 13 to September 2 to further align with the wider global soccer schedule.

MLS will eventually be shifting to a fully European calendar starting next summer.
