100%~ _ one deal that's already been done is cole palmer moving to chelsea, from manchester city for £40 million pounds. this takes this transfer window to nearly 400 million mark. it's near to a billion. it's nothing like we've seen in the premier league before. the players contracts are spread over a long period of time and they've sold a few academy graduates and they see that as banking pure profit. they were looking to sign one more attack and cole palma fits that profile. he said he's been sold the chelsea project and he's looking forward to going there and going into the

platform. he started in manchester city. he scored for them in the european super cup final and their community shield loss to arsenal. he had a great summer, he won the european championships of the england under 21 side. he's got a lot of potential and it will be interesting to see where he fits into this. quite large at the moment, the chelsea squad. anything else we should be keeping a lookout for? �* ~ ., . ., else we should be keeping a lookout for? �* ., , ., for? and mac are stealing the headlines _ for? and mac are stealing the headlines at _ for? and mac are stealing the headlines at the _ for? and mac are stealing the headlines at the moment. - for? and mac are stealing the | headlines at the moment. but tottenham are in discussion with nottingham forest about their winger. they are trying to find players to take up and spread the gold after harry kane left north london to go to bayern munich. fulham have given permission to give
