The transfer window has temporarily closed, but some deals crossed the line while some fell off at the last minute. Here you go with the cream of the bunch.

Dortmund rejects Chelsea's Gittens bid

Chelsea's bid to have Dutch forward Jamie Gittens for the upcoming Club World Cup has been dashed after Borussia Dortmund rejected Chelsea's first approach.

Chelsea's bid was believed to be around £42m for the Dutchman, which Dortmund doesn't see as being enough for their utility player. Both Dortmund and Chelsea are in the Club World Cup.

Chelsea walks away from Maignan

AC Milan has refused to budge on their £26m asking price for their French goalkeeper Mike Maignan, and Chelsea has decided to walk away from the deal.

With Marcus Bettinelli off to Manchester City, Chelsea needs help between the sticks after a shaky season by Jorgensen, Robert Sanchez, and with Kepa reportedly off to Arsenal. Will the Blues look elsewhere for a shot-stopper?

Liverpool agrees on Wirtz deal

Liverpool has agreed terms with Bayer Leverkusen for their mercurial playmaker Florian Wirtz, and the German is expected to join before the weekend.

For a fee of £130m including add-on, Liverpool will finally get their man, but there are doubts over his participation in the Club World Cup for the Premier League champions. Liverpool is also close to a move for Milos Kerkez from Bournemouth.

kevin De Bruyne agrees Napoli move

Belgium superstar Kevin De Bruyne has agreed to join Italian champions Napoli on a 2-year deal with an option of another one.

De Bruyne joins on a free after a stellar career at Manchester City, where he won every available trophy in the game. De Bruyne will join City for the Club World Cup, after which he will start his Napoli career.

Barcelona confirms Garcia

Barcelona has agreed terms with Espanyol for goalkeeper Joan Garcia, who will join the Catalan giants on a £25m deal.

Marc Andre Ter Stegen is losing the confidence of the Barcelona hierarchy, and, with Wojiech Szczesny in goal as their stop-gap last season, Barca needed to sign a new goalkeeper.
