grealish in summer 2021, to get him to the club. fernandez onlyjoined last year in the region for £10 million at benfica, he has only played 20 odd games for the club and then went to the world cup and stole then went to the world cup and stole the show, the young player of the tournament. of course, won the whole thing with lionel messi and argentina. chelsea still pushing to get the deal over the line before the deadline, we understand they have sent a medical team to help it along so they don't miss any requirements and they have every chance of completing it before the 11pm deadline.— chance of completing it before the 11pm deadline. chance of completing it before the 11m deadline. �* ., , ., ~ 11pm deadline. angelino is making -- and jorginho — 11pm deadline. angelino is making -- and jorginho is _ 11pm deadline. angelino is making -- and jorginho is making _ 11pm deadline. angelino is making -- and jorginho is making way _ 11pm deadline. angelino is making -- and jorginho is making way for - 11pm deadline. angelino is making -- and jorginho is making way for enzo l and jorginho is making way for enzo fernandez, going to arsenal, a deal that perhaps came as a surprise? abs, that perhaps came as a surprise? bit of a surprise and maybe how quickly arsenal managed to get the deal done, as leon and michael were saying, they identified what they

needed and they have gone to get the player. they pushed the moises caicedo from brighton, didn't they, probably to the limit, the fee going higher and higher but bright and remaining strong and not allowing arsenal to get their own way —— brighton remaining strong. they have injuries in the centre of midfield, mohamed elneny with a serious right knee injury, he has undergone surgery. they needed some experience. you can't get better in that department in terms of experience thanjorginho, he has won the euros with italy and european trophies with chelsea and he has that guaranteed quality. as arsenal push at the top of the premier league table with the young side they have, it is a very good signing who comes with a lot of experience. for now, alex, thanks. michael, we talked on the show a couple of weeks ago about how chelsea's transfer business was being conducted and maybe they needed a right back but they weren't signing eddie and how they weren't signing eddie and how they needed a central midfielder but they needed a central midfielder but they weren't signing any, it seems

like they have not got any central midfield and now they have got one of the best players in the world. they have got one of the best players, that is for certain, it is a wonderful signing, the statement we have talked about, in the dressing room, you're going to look across and go, wow, this kind of player coming into improve what you have already got, there's been a bit of misfortune, a lack of consistency with the squad. i know there's injuries, questions over the manager, but to go with this amount of signings and some of the quality they have been able to get, i mean, it is remarkable the amount of money, questions over the amount of spending as well, leon, of this lengthy term, it has obviously been a bit of a strange scenario. weill. a bit of a strange scenario. well, ou a bit of a strange scenario. well, you know. _ a bit of a strange scenario. well, you know. people _ a bit of a strange scenario. well, you know, people are _ a bit of a strange scenario. well, you know, people are saying - a bit of a strange scenario. well, | you know, people are saying they a bit of a strange scenario. well, you know, people are saying they are circumventing financial fair play but until— circumventing financial fair play but until that loophole is figure out then— but until that loophole is figure out then you play with what you are able to _ out then you play with what you are able to. there no issues with chelsea _ able to. there no issues with chelsea doing that and finding the opportunity —— i have no issues. and

the moment at manchester united, at theirtraining ground. he the moment at manchester united, at their training ground. he is going to come in as a replacement almost at short—term for christian eriksen, who has been ruled out until the end of april, early may, at the earliest, because of an ankle injury that he sustained against reading on sunday. lewis 0'brien, i think he is going to go from nottingham forest to blackburn on loan. harry souttar, leicester have had a £15 million bid accepted by stoke city. he is having accepted by stoke city. he is having a medical. and hacking ziyech, we have been talking about chelsea —— hakim ziyech, he is somebody that chelsea don't want and i am told that the deal for him to join psg chelsea don't want and i am told that the dealfor him tojoin psg is not done yet but it is expected it will be and they have the advantage in france of another hour, so that has got until virtually midnight for that to go through. for leon 0sman in particular, nothing on everton,

interesting rumours about who they might have gone for this evening, one of them is ismaila sarr from watford. it was a loan deal that was turned down flat. everton have not signed anybody yet.— turned down flat. everton have not signed anybody yet. checked again, lease! signed anybody yet. checked again, please! check— signed anybody yet. checked again, please! check again, _ signed anybody yet. checked again, please! check again, you _ signed anybody yet. checked again, please! check again, you have - signed anybody yet. checked again, please! check again, you have got l signed anybody yet. checked again, | please! check again, you have got to check— please! check again, you have got to check again. — please! check again, you have got to check again, check once more, simon. i've check again, check once more, simon. we still— check again, check once more, simon. we still got— check again, check once more, simon. we still got it — check again, check once more, simon. i've still got it here, ismaila sarr. ,, ., . , , sarr. simon, manchester united, news toda that sarr. simon, manchester united, news today that christian _ sarr. simon, manchester united, news today that christian eriksen _ sarr. simon, manchester united, news today that christian eriksen was - today that christian eriksen was going to be out probably until late april, early may and it looks like they are acting quite quickly. yes. they are acting quite quickly. yes, and marcel _ they are acting quite quickly. yes, and marcel sabitzer _ they are acting quite quickly. yes, and marcel sabitzer has _ they are acting quite quickly. 1a: and marcel sabitzer has kind of they are acting quite quickly. 123 and marcel sabitzer has kind of come from nowhere in a sense but eric ten hag knows bayern munich, he used to be the reserve team coach there. he clearly had conversations about bayern munich and potentially becoming their coach i think when carlo ancelotti left the club. so he obviously knows the club. i think he has spoken to them and found that marcel sabitzer was available, and

it has opened the door and manchester united have gone through it. ithink manchester united have gone through it. i think ideally, bayern munich wanted it to be a loan deal with an obligation to buy or even a purchase. i don't think manchester united are really interested in that because clearly, they will hope that christian eriksen is fit by the end of the season but i think also in the summer, they are going for more long—term targets, even somebody like frenkie dejong, who they have pushed for so hard last summer. i think it is a short—term deal. i don't think that eric ten hag was willing to go into the second half of the season without a replacement for christian eriksen, particularly as scott mctominay has an injury which he believes to be short—term but it will keep him out of the league cup semifinal against nottingham forest tomorrow night and also at the weekend, the premier league game against crystal palace so i think he is concerned about that and that is why marcel sabitzer is going to end up at manchester

the new manager yesterday. there has not even been any strong links, there has been crickets. 0ne name which was touted earlier today was conor gallagher, the chelsea attacking midfielder but pretty quickly, that rumour seemed to have been shot down. as i mentioned, not really any strong links. i can only think a couple of things, either sean dyche has met the squad and thinks that he has got a team good enough for a relegation scrap, perhaps frank lampard just wasn't getting the best out of them, or that attracting players to everton is not really an attractive proposal, given their current status. remember, arnaut danjuma who recentlyjoined spurs was all but a done deal tojoin everton recentlyjoined spurs was all but a done deal to join everton and seem to do a u—turn and drove back down the m1. at the moment, i am billy no mates, absolutely crickets, i've got my boots in the car if things get desperate, lyon, you are looking in good nick, it could be desperate times, so you might get the call before 11pm.

times, so you might get the call before 11pm— times, so you might get the call before 11m. , , , ., before 11pm. just remind us of the predicament _ before 11pm. just remind us of the predicament that _ before 11pm. just remind us of the predicament that everton - before 11pm. just remind us of the predicament that everton find - predicament that everton find themselves in and maybe why the fans were so hopeful of getting some new faces through the door.— faces through the door. yeah, well, as i mentioned, _ faces through the door. yeah, well, as i mentioned, the _ faces through the door. yeah, well, as i mentioned, the money - faces through the door. yeah, well, as i mentioned, the money burning | faces through the door. yeah, well, | as i mentioned, the money burning a hole in their pockets, £115 million for anthony gordon who everton fans would not have enjoyed them if they watched the game earlier, the league cup semifinal between newcastle and southampton, anthony gordon was waving at the newcastle fans before kick—off. evident sultan for £40 million and we understand sean dyche was given some of the money to reinvest in the club. —— everton sold him. we understand that maybe he is trying to do that but maybe the players that he is going for don't fancy coming to everton. andrea you, the ghanaian international, has been mentioned but when you look at him, —— andre ayew, the former west ham and swansea player, spent last season in qatar before being released as a free agent, for everton fans, it won't strike you and with much

confidence, everton are still the only premier league team yet to sign somebody in the january transfer window. looking across social media and listening to the everton fan radio, a lot of them say it isn't just today and the transfer deadline day problem, we know there has been issues for months, why haven't changes been made more quickly? i think there is a real fear that if everton don't sign anybody, remember, they are moving to a new stadium for the 2024—2025 season, unthinkable they could be playing championship football really worrying times for them. you mentioned the discontent between the fans and players and players and the chairman, we have seen players confronted in the car parks and certainly, the chairman and board members have been told to stay away from games. if everton don't do a bit of business and there isn't some hope on the horizon, things could continue with how we have seen them for the last few weeks and months which nobody at everton and certainly football lovers don't want to see. g0 certainly football lovers don't want to see. ., , certainly football lovers don't want to see. ,., ., i. , .,

and international transfers can happen until midnight and the bigger story of the day in the wsl was really a transfer that was not happening, manchester united forward alessia russo were subject to a world record bid of arsenal, nearly £500,000 but united turned it down to keep hold of their lioness. earlier, i spoke to flo lloyd hughes to ask why the deal did not go through? 50 to ask why the deal did not go throuh? . , through? so manchester united were very stubborn — through? so manchester united were very stubborn in _ through? so manchester united were very stubborn in their _ through? so manchester united were very stubborn in their negotiations, l very stubborn in their negotiations, and they were adamant on holding onto the player, regardless of how much arsenal kept upping the offer, even getting it to what is thought to be £500,000 which would be a new international record for any transfer in the women's game, and a huge sum of money in women's football. i think for a lot of people who maybe don't understand the context of where the market is right now, i think it is interesting, the fact that it was so much, and yet, a club like manchester united felt like they could turn it down and i think in

the men's game, you know, we often see clubs who can't turn down sums of money because they know it is a life changing amount, you know, we have seen brighton have some big outgoings recently and that is money that they feel that they couldn't turn down but in women's football it works slightly differently because a lot of the time, it is the men's clubs that are in the premier league that are funding the women's teams in the wsl. for a club like manchester united, they obviously felt like, we don't need this money, it is better to hold onto alessia russo, complete the season with her, regardless of the fact that her contract runs out in the summer and maybe we will win the title, we will probably qualify for the champions league and that is worth the risk of potentially losing her in the summer on a free but having her right now and not losing her to one of our rivals. ., and not losing her to one of our rivals. i, , i, , i, rivals. one of the implications for arsenal, rivals. one of the implications for arsenal. -- _ rivals. one of the implications for arsenal, -- what _ rivals. one of the implications for arsenal, -- what are _ rivals. one of the implications for arsenal, -- what are the - arsenal, —— what are the implications for arsenal because they were in the market for a striker, especially given that beth mead and vivienne reed amar are both out at the moment. == mead and vivienne reed amar are both out at the moment.—

of beth england moving from spurs gait chelsea to spurs for a domestic —— moving from chelsea to spurs for the domestic record, £250,000, starting the month with a bang and then jordan starting the month with a bang and thenjordan nobbs left arsenal after a very long time and went to aston villa. we started the month of big and it has kind of got smaller and smaller as the window has progressed until we had the bombshell news about the alessia russo bid which eventually did not materialise into a move but today, one of the last days, it has been much more about loan deals and squad additions. thank you forjoining us. you are watching the transfer deadline day coverage on the bbc iplayer, the bbc sport website and news channel until about 11:15pm. don't forget to keep your comments coming in using the hashtag. we have got live text on the website at the

same time. of course, this has been almost unprecedented january for the regulator. they have been flexing their financial muscle, that —— for their financial muscle, that —— for the premier league. they have been flexing theirfinancial the premier league. they have been flexing their financial muscle. delight revealed earlier this month that the 20 richest clubs in the world all came from the public, 16 of the top 30 from england as well. so how are they doing it? i of the top 30 from england as well. so how are they doing it?— so how are they doing it? i think it is capitalising _ so how are they doing it? i think it is capitalising on _ so how are they doing it? i think it is capitalising on its _ so how are they doing it? i think it is capitalising on its strength - so how are they doing it? i think it is capitalising on its strength and i is capitalising on its strength and its position that it has developed in the market, the industry over the last ten or 15 years. 0bviously, from a broadcast perspective, it has been able to, it is the only one of the big five leagues to be generating an increase on its media rights in the latest process. i think that is obviously highlighted in the interest from sponsors, fans, from investors in the premier league. 0bviously, from investors in the premier league. obviously, we have had the covid effect and we have really seen a difference in the premier league

and those clubs and their ability to spendin and those clubs and their ability to spend in the transfer market over and above what we are saying across the rest of europe. so as i say, when we look at the january transfer window alone, the premier league clubs have spent four times as much as the other big five leagues combined. and they're looking at it on a seasonal basis, again, when you combine the spend of all of the other big five leagues in comparison to the premier league, the premier league clubs are spending more. 0ver over £500 million already spent in the january transfer window, a record for the premier league, and these sums of money are getting bigger and bigger, these sums of money are getting biggerand bigger, is there these sums of money are getting bigger and bigger, is there a time when the effort will be equalled by any of the other leagues in europe? difficult to say but at the moment, the amount of money, and leon said

he would take one of those seven—year contracts! everyone wants to come and it is a wide—open lake for champions league positions, relegation is tight, but the question is, of the players coming for financial or do question is, of the players coming forfinancial or do they question is, of the players coming for financial or do they really want to play here? a, for financial or do they really want to play here?— for financial or do they really want to play here? a bit of bite may be, but players — to play here? a bit of bite may be, but players go _ to play here? a bit of bite may be, but players go where _ to play here? a bit of bite may be, but players go where the - to play here? a bit of bite may be, but players go where the money i to play here? a bit of bite may be, but players go where the money isj to play here? a bit of bite may be, i but players go where the money is -- but players go where the money is —— a bit of— but players go where the money is —— a bit of both — but players go where the money is —— a bit of both. since the introduction of the premier league it has— introduction of the premier league it has grown beyond anybody's imagination, watch ability around the world, — imagination, watch ability around the world, everybody wants to watch it, the world, everybody wants to watch it. and _ the world, everybody wants to watch it. and that — the world, everybody wants to watch it, and that is why the european leagues— it, and that is why the european leagues tried to start the super league — leagues tried to start the super league to get in on this cash and -et league to get in on this cash and get a _ league to get in on this cash and get a bit — league to get in on this cash and get a bit of— league to get in on this cash and get a bit of the revenue because i do not _ get a bit of the revenue because i do not see — get a bit of the revenue because i do not see them being able to ever match— do not see them being able to ever match the — do not see them being able to ever match the attraction of the premier league _ match the attraction of the premier league through their own leagues. is league through their own leagues.

about rebuilds for so long but i thought it would be the case of two, three, four years, but we might have it sorted by the start of next season and i feel like it sorted by the start of next season and ifeel like my it sorted by the start of next season and i feel like my faith it sorted by the start of next season and ifeel like my faith in todd beohly it a lot stronger now. we have been a very aggressive team with todd _ we have been a very aggressive team with todd beohly and he has been very reactionary with the defeats we have had _ very reactionary with the defeats we have had and the injuries, and a series— have had and the injuries, and a series of— have had and the injuries, and a series of factors, really, so the way— series of factors, really, so the way he — series of factors, really, so the way he has _ series of factors, really, so the way he has gone into the transfer window— way he has gone into the transfer window has restored faith in the fan base because with the defeats we have had — base because with the defeats we have had and things not being very well, _ have had and things not being very well, being tenth in the table, it is hard _ well, being tenth in the table, it is hard to— well, being tenth in the table, it is hard to stay positive, so what he's _ is hard to stay positive, so what he's doing — is hard to stay positive, so what he's doing and january has restored a lot he's doing and january has restored a tot of— he's doing and january has restored a lot of faith in the fans so we're pretty— a lot of faith in the fans so we're pretty happy with we have gone. a lot pretty happy with we have gone. a tot of— pretty happy with we have gone. a tot of the — pretty happy with we have gone. a lot of the signings we have made coutd _ lot of the signings we have made could have come in the summer but the fact— could have come in the summer but the fact we — could have come in the summer but the fact we are doing it now is

is a project in place —— they would have a demand and they probably would have sacked him. the squad is even worse than i thought it was and we have now brought in a completely new manager and gone to stage one of another rebuild and if we don't get champions league football, this season, i'm fine, but if we do not get european conference football, and even happier. i get european conference football, and even happier.— and even happier. i think we are startint and even happier. i think we are starting to _ and even happier. i think we are starting to accept _ and even happier. i think we are starting to accept that _ and even happier. i think we are starting to accept that this - and even happier. i think we are starting to accept that this is - and even happier. i think we are starting to accept that this is a l starting to accept that this is a long—term project, and yes, we do expect— long—term project, and yes, we do expect results, chelsea is a club that wins — expect results, chelsea is a club that wins trophies and competes in europe _ that wins trophies and competes in europe and — that wins trophies and competes in europe and finishes in the top four but after— europe and finishes in the top four but after what has happened in the past year. — but after what has happened in the past year, it is safe to say that it is difficult — past year, it is safe to say that it is difficult to do that. graham potter— is difficult to do that. graham potter has come into a shambolic chelsea _ potter has come into a shambolic chelsea side. he has been doubt these _ chelsea side. he has been doubt these cards —— doubt these cards come _ these cards —— doubt these cards come at — these cards —— doubt these cards come at some of the results have been _

manchester united, they get another hour, in order to get all the documentation done and get it sent off to the authorities. it allows the player to be registered. there is a caveat because they can miss the deadline and i do remember vividly being on duty in this very building the night that real madrid thought they were going to sign david de gea from manchester united and the whole thing never went through, the fax machine didn't work and the transfer did not get completed. i do not expect that to happen with manchester united and bayern munich over marcel sabitzer. i expect that deal to go through before midnight and he willjoin on loan for the rest of the season. simon, for now, thank you very much. another deal that has just been confirmed as well in the last ten minutes, spurs confirming the signing of sporting lisbon right back pedro porro, who can play and

win back, the deal includes an obligation to buy for £40 million. one of your other clubs has been busy in the last couple of days, i know antonio conte was very vocal about the lack of activity and they brought in arnaut danjuma and now porro as well. is that an improvement on what they had before? it is an improvement and that is the demand he has, antonio conte, we have seen kulusevski, bentancur, richarlison at the start of the season as well. there is a development there but ultimately, i still feel in the defensive setup, possibly down the left—hand side, we have seen ben davies playing there regularly, there is still room for a bit of help, a bit of improvement going forward but they will be delighted down the right—hand side, they have tried several times to get that correct so it is a positive, somebody in the dressing room who is hopefully going to give them a bit more consistency, especially when the manager demands so much from the squad. in the manager demands so much from the s: uad. ., ., the manager demands so much from the suuad. ., ., ., ., squad. in order to accommodate porro, squad. in order to accommodate porro. they _ squad. in order to accommodate porro, they have _ squad. in order to accommodate porro, they have let _ squad. in order to accommodate porro, they have let matt - squad. in order to accommodate l porro, they have let matt doherty squad. in order to accommodate - porro, they have let matt doherty go to atletico madrid, and editing these for those players as well. ——

conte have identified for a while and there has been a lot of speculation in the last few weeks about whether they would get it done but they have done it and they backing him. are but they have done it and they backing him. ar- but they have done it and they backing him. are they are, it is somebody _ backing him. are they are, it is somebody over _ backing him. are they are, it is somebody over the _ backing him. are they are, it is somebody over the line, - backing him. are they are, it is somebody over the line, and i backing him. are they are, it is somebody over the line, and a| backing him. are they are, it is - somebody over the line, and a decent amount of money as well. listen, things are changing slowly at spurs, but still, there is this long—term, antonio conte, where we are going to see the biggest improvement at the time from the manager. we have been waitin: for time from the manager. we have been waiting for everton _ time from the manager. we have been waiting for everton to _ time from the manager. we have been waiting for everton to do _ time from the manager. we have been waiting for everton to do some - waiting for everton to do some business today, we have waited for the whole transfer window for them to do some business and we have been waiting for some white smoke, blue smoke or any kind of smoke from everton, nesta mcgregor but it looks like it has not happened for them. i like it has not happened for them. i tell you what, there has been some excitement, but it was just fireworks across the way and that was it and that could be from the red half of merseyside celebrating what is going on here because as i say, you have to say it out loud to believe it, everton are 19th in the

premier league, three wins all season, striker�*s not scoring much, defenders not defending much and midfielders who are not doing their jobs to the best of their ability as well and yet there has been zero signings as far as we know now. simon mentioned sometimes paperwork is submitted and we can get deals done after the deadline has passed. that is the case now but absolutely crickets here at the minute, no deals. we were also told that sean dyche left finch farm, the training ground, at about 9:50pm, an hour or ground, atabout 9:50pm, an hour or so ground, at about 9:50pm, an hour or so before the deadline, which does not mean no deals were being done and paperwork has not been submitted but as it stands, everton, languishing in 19th in the premier league, have not signed anyone so if deals come in late come it will be a story tomorrow and if nothing has been done, i think we could well see some fans, possibly more protests like we have seen in recent weeks and months. worrying times if you are an everton fan and a sticky time for the toffees, some would say.
