The summer transfer window has concluded; Victor Osimhen is still at Napoli, giving Saudi club Al Ahli an advantage, while Marc Guehi remains at Crystal Palace despite Newcastle's efforts. Let's examine ten transfers that occurred on deadline day.

Arsenal signs Sterling on loan from Chelsea.

It’s not the first time that the Gunners will turn to Chelsea for a deadline-day move, but this one would leave a bitter taste in the mouths of Arsenal fans as their club sealed a loan move for Raheem Sterling at the death; it’s a dry loan with no options, and it could be significant in the title race.

Jadon Sancho has joined Chelsea on loan.

One of the longstanding transfer sagas finally came to an end, albeit temporarily, as Chelsea signed Jadon Sancho before the transfer deadline on Friday. The former Borussia Dortmund winger joins the Blues on loan with an option to buy.

Scott McTominay joins Napoli after leaving Manchester United.

Manchester United has confirmed that Scottish midfielder Scott McTominay has joined Napoli permanently for a fee of £25 million. The move ends a decade-long alliance with the Old Trafford outfit, making him the first Scottish player to move to the Serie A club in the modern era.

Armando Broja has joined Everton on loan.

All was believed to be done between Armando Broja and Ipswich town, but a dramatic turn of events late on Friday saw the Albanian international sign for Everton on loan after the Tractor Boys pulled the plug due to concerns over the striker’s injury record.

Reis Nelson leaves Arsenal to join Fulham.

While Arsenal was busy working on the Sterling deal, the Gunners were also reaching an agreement with Fulham for Reis Nelson's loan signing. The winger ends his long-term alliance with the Gunners by joining Fulham, who already got Emile Smith Rowe from the Gunners this summer.

Manuel Ugarte leaves PSG to join United.

Another transfer saga that lasted the entire window has come to an end with Manchester United signing Manuel Ugarte from PSG for a fee of £43 million. Ugarte fell out of the pecking order at the Parc des Princes; will he ignite things in the heart of the United midfield?

Eddie Nketiah moves to Crystal Palace.

It’s a summer of massive outgoings at Arsenal, with former England youth star Eddie Nketiah joining Olivier Glasner’s Crystal Palace on a five-year deal. The 25-year-old striker will hope to cushion the effect of the loss of Michael Olise, who left for Bayern Munich earlier in the window.

Aaron Ramsdale has permanently left Arsenal.

Former Arsenal’s number one goalkeeper, Aaron Ramsdale, has joined Southampton on a permanent deal for a fee of £25 million, including add-ons. Ramsdale fell behind David Raya in the pecking order and has now secured a move to improve his chances of returning to the England fold.

At Arsenal, Neto will replace Ramsdale.

After laboring in vain to secure the signing of Joan Garcia from Spanish side Espanyol, Arsenal has announced the signing of Neto from Bournemouth, with the Brazilian joining as the backup keeper to David Raya. The 35-year-old joins on loan until the end of the season.

Tammy Abraham has joined AC Milan on loan.

Former Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham has left AS Roma on loan to join AC Milan. Alexis Saelemaekers was moved to the other side, also on loan until the end of the season.
