loan from juventus to liverpool seems like it'll get over the line. a lot of it is done with paperwork, as well for one thing potentially that we are seeing is ben barris and diaz, the blackburn striker. blackburn £115 million for him, he's been linked potentially to everton, we are told that the valuation for them is too wide. i think there will still be lots of movement and deals to get over the line. when 11pm happens that doesn't mean all the deals are done, they have to get their sheets in through to the premier league because they'll be happening into the early hours of the morning as well. share happening into the early hours of the morning as well.— happening into the early hours of the morning as well. are we seeing activity with — the morning as well. are we seeing activity with teams _ the morning as well. are we seeing activity with teams that _ the morning as well. are we seeing activity with teams that are - activity with teams that are struggling? i imagine that's the whole point of deadline day. full omar in the _ whole point of deadline day. fill omar in the market for a couple players, bournemouth have already set out that they are unlikely to spend too much money, it may be seeing one in and nottingham forest

through to see through to olympia coast. of course they had a busy period early on in the window and they lost some of their players when they lost some of their players when they got promoted. so potentially seeing a lot of deals there, but we might not see too much there. chelsea will be the biggest one. i just want to quickly ask you, hasn't made a difference? because the season started earlier because the world cup? in season started earlier because the world cu - ? . ., season started earlier because the world cop?— world cup? in a way, yes, but i think what _ world cup? in a way, yes, but i think what the _ world cup? in a way, yes, but i think what the premier - world cup? in a way, yes, but i think what the premier league | world cup? in a way, yes, but i - think what the premier league clubs have learned from previous mistakes, and the fact that the later you leave it, the less you have to do, i think manchester city fc a lot of their deals done with erling haaland and calvin phillips, it helps them start the season flying. what you're starting to see is not quite a panic with some of those clubs doing the deals today, but still needing a little bit more to get over the line. so it helps the world cup certainly condensing it and making sure that we've got big enough

squads to be able to deal with them, but what we are starting to see is the sums of money being spent. i think £1.73 the sums of money being spent. i think £1.3 billion is being spent in the premier league this summer, more than low ligue, serie a combined. so the wide scope of the premier league is being seen, we'll rounded up as best we can. transfer to closes at midnight. best we can. transfer to closes at midniuht. ~ , ., ., best we can. transfer to closes at - midnight-_ that's midnight. why the extra hour? that's a good question- _ midnight. why the extra hour? that's a good question. laughter - that's all from sportsday. from all of us and the team, good night. hello there. the weather will be feeling a little bit autumnal this weekend. low pressure will be taking control,

we'll see some wet and windy weather at times, particularly across western areas. further east, it'll be a mixture of sunny spells and scattered showers — and that theme lasts into the following week, as well. so, we've still got this ridge of high pressure, being a lot of fine weather in the short term. weather fronts moving into the northwest and the south will bring increasing cloud and showers. and there will be quite a few showers developing across parts of the midlands, southern and southeast england through this evening and overnight — maybe the odd heavy one again with some rumbles of thunder, some showery rain getting into western scotland, the far northwest of northern ireland, as well. but elsewhere, largely dry and a less cold night to come, i think, across scotland than what we've had the last few nights. so for friday, then, a lot of dry weather through central and northern parts of the country, just 1—2 showers dotted around. shower activity increases for western scotland and northern ireland — some of them could be heavy — and there'll be some showers dotted across parts of england and wales. but equally some good spells of sunshine, and it'll feel warmer across the board, up to 26 celsius or so in the southeast, the low 20s through central and southern scotland. but then, things start to turn more and more

unsettled into the weekend — this area of low pressure begins to develop and establish itself sitting to the west of the uk, so it'll always be wet and windier for northern ireland and parts of wales, and southwest england. now we'll have a band of showers even longer, spells of rain affecting central southern scotland, northern and eastern england through the day on saturday. some of these downpours could be very heavy and slow—moving, and it'll be quite squally, some strong winds across the north and northeast of the country. further south, particularly the southeast, we could stay dry with some sunshine around, maybe the odd shower. top temperatures around 21l—25 celsius. sunday, those heavy showers move north across scotland, another band of rain pushes into western areas and spreads northwards — very little on it, i think, as it reaches the east and southeast of england. so again, it could be fairly dry here, quite warm, 25 celsius further west as temperatures beginning to come down a little bit from the wind and the rain, so the mid—to—high teens. low pressure sits to the west of the uk as we head into next week,

hello, i'm lewis vaughanjones. this is outside source. the un's nuclear team has carried out an initial inspection at the zaporizhzhia nuclear plant in ukraine, which is under russian control. we are not going anywhere. the iea is now there, it's at the plant and it's not moving. it's going to stay there. the inspection went ahead despite shelling just kilometres away — the plant has come under repeated attack raising fears of a nuclear accident. we'll speak to a former un nuclear inspector about the risks. also in the programme: china dismisses a long—delayed un report which concludes allegations of torture and sexual abuse in its uyghur detention camps are credible. beijing, though, calls it a farce.
