The transfer window is closed. Chelsea have brought Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang back to the Premier League, and will bring in Juve's Denis Zakaria.
He had been linked with Real Madrid this summer, and it would reportedly take an offer of at least €115 million for the Serie A champions to consider parting ways with him.

It has been a relentless summer transfer window, with Premier League clubs spending more than £1.5bn in new arrivals and big name arrivals already beginning ...
The jury's still out on the likes of Djed Spence and Clement Lenglet, though the congested schedule ought to give both a chance for minutes. Oriol Romeu could be a loss after his Girona move, but Ralph Hasenhuttl will feel he can deal with the departure - especially with Ainsley Maitland-Niles one of three to arrive on deadline day. Still, with other big wages offloaded with the departure of Paul Pogba, Nemanja Matic and more, what felt like a necessary overhaul has well and truly begun. Chelsea have been the biggest spenders, but it's been a mix of youth and experience which could set the club up well for the future, but more isn't always better. And it took until deadline day for the first outfield player to arrive, with some of the Wesley Fofana money going towards Wout Faes. There was a late blow, with Andrea Radrizzani frustrated by the collapse of a move for Bamba Dieng, but that deal would have just been an added bonus. More often, it has been a case of bringing in players who can slot in a little further down the line. Primary target Joao Palhinha joined early, while the need for a new goalkeeper was solved with the cut-price signing of Bernd Leno. A club statement spoke of a need for "belief in and respect for one another," suggesting Parker's comments - rather than results on the pitch - were the core factor. More frustrating for Villa is the loss of Carney Chukwuemeka, who had looked to be on the verge of a breakout club season after starring in England's under-19 Euros win. More than £100m had been spent by the Gunners before a ball was kicked in the league, and the benefits of getting a proper pre-season with your new arrivals are plain to see, while the late failed midfielder chase is a squad injuries issue as much as a transfer issue. This isn't just an easy cop-out of giving a B to the Bees, we promise.

Nottingham Forest took their signings to 21 by bringing in Willy Boly from Wolves, Blackpool’s Josh Bowler – who was immediately loaned to Olympiakos – and the Rennes defender Loïc Badé. Fulham moved instead for Carlos Vinícius, who had a loan at Tottenham, and secured him from Benfica in an initial £4m transfer. He was due to sign a five-year contract at Nice in a deal worth €12m (£10.4m) and although the transfer appeared to collapse it could yet go through on Friday. Marco Silva has also added the Paris Saint-Germain defender Layvin Kurzawa on a season’s loan and Dan James, also on loan, from Leeds. The Senegal international is eligible for Saturday’s Merseyside derby at home to Liverpool, as is Garner, who spent last season on loan at Nottingham Forest and has cost an initial £9m with £6.5m payable in add-ons. The 32-year-old has now signed a two-year contract.

A few games into his Saints career and the young defender is catching the eye for his performances. KM: AB-K and Aaronson are excellent choices from the start of the season. RJ: Gabriel Jesus: Partly for the goals and assists that have given him a flying start. Keeping hold of James Maddison is a boost but they missed the chance to sell Youri Tielemans before the midfielder leaves for free next summer. Waited so long to sell players they didn’t want to, didn’t offload the players who Brendan Rodgers doesn’t appear to want anymore and haven’t added any notable talent whatsoever. The squad looks paper thin and leaves whoever replaces Parker at the helm with plenty to do to keep the Cherries up. MD: If the transfer window is ultimately supposed to be about changing your squad relative to where you were and the rest of the division, Leicester City have become so much worse. And if their limited outlay suggests money is the key factor, some of their rivals have recruited quality players for cut-price fees, for free transfers or on loan. RJ: Ask Scott Parker and the answer is probably Bournemouth. Sasa Kalajdzic could be the ideal forward who makes the team a lot better than his actual own level offers - he’s a good No9 for the traits of those behind him to play off. Karl Matchett: Leeds United put a really strong window together to regenerate the team in the manager’s image and a couple of those deals - Tyler Adams, Luis Sinisterra - are steals. Since then, they’ve added depth in a couple of positions in Manuel Akanji and Sergio Gomez without paying over the odds.

In practice, this means that clubs can agree to sign a player from another side, but the new signing cannot yet register with the league they are going to and so cannot play for their new clubs until the transfer window opens again.

Liverpool signed four players in the summer transfer window including a deadline day swoop for Arthur Melo.
Nunez showed great glimpses coming off the bench in the Community Shield and in the 2-2 draw against Fulham on the opening day. The Scot will aim to show his boundless energy up the flank. The resurgent Roberto Firmino and Diogo Jota, when he returns to fitness, will provide strong competition. Konate is currently sidelined with a knee injury but the way he ended last term was immense. Salah could overtake Kenny Dalglish in Liverpool’s list of all-time top scorers this season. Here’s what we think.
From Nottingham Forest's 21 deals to Leicester's one outfield signing we run the rule over the division's £1.9bn outlay.
It was a slow-burn window for Wolves and the onus is on Bruno Lage to make sure his new toys gel after a summer of change. The captain, Conor Coady, was allowed to leave for Everton after Lage switched to a four-man defence and although Nathan Collins has settled none of Gonçalo Guedes, Matheus Nunes and Sasa Kalajdzic, signed at a combined cost of about £80m, arrived for the start of the season. The opening-day loss to Newcastle changed the dynamic and a plethora of experience was sought, but at the same time Cooper got his way with Morgan Gibbs-White to leave the squad brimming with youthful promise – which had been the original plan in mid-June. David Moyes finally has competition up front for Michail Antonio in the shape of Gianluca Scamacca while the addition of the playmaker Lucas Paquetá is one to set the pulses racing. The new boys have brought quality, physicality and plenty of experience – with only Djed Spence being considered one for the future; a club signing rather than one pushed by Antonio Conte. On the final day of the window Leicester made their first and only outfield signing in the Reims centre-back Wout Faes, a replacement for Wesley Fofana. Rodgers had targets lined up and wanted a healthy shake-up but ended up with nothing of the sort. Factor in an abandoned pursuit of Marko Arnautovic, a failed bid for Adrien Rabiot and Jurrien Timber’s preference to stay at Ajax, and the Dutch manager’s first window diced with farce. But that would have been the icing on the cake of a window featuring some brisk business, with Keane Lewis-Potter and Mikkel Damsgaard looking handy additions to the attack. The jury may still be out on Jesse Marsch but the Leeds manager has bought himself invaluable time in which to confound the doubters courtesy of some stellar signings. Brighton acquired the Ecuador left-back Pervis Estupiñán from Villarreal to replace Marc Cucurella and made a late move for Chelsea’s Billy Gilmour, but the loss of Yves Bissouma and Neal Maupay is likely to be covered by existing players from the squad. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s return to London will at least provide Thomas Tuchel with a proven goalscorer, while the seven-year contract awarded to Wesley Fofana showed both his and Boehly’s commitment for the long haul.
Newcastle United failed in two summer bids for Leicester City playmaker James Maddison and the BT Sport panel discussed the next step for the Foxes ...
RF: I think Brendan Rodgers and his staff have a job to do in making sure he remains motivated for Leicester City, but also as a player in having personal pride in your performance. If he has another season like he did last season, James Maddison won't be here because he's playing at a level which is elite. I mean, he got 18 goals and eight assists last season and he's got a World Cup to look forward to. I have to remain at a certain level that's got to me a point where teams are calling me. Maddison's form and contract status has led many to predict the 25-year-old could be the next big name to leave the Foxes along with Youri Tielemans. You've got to have the right mentality to go you know what, my levels won't drop. Here is everything host Jake Humphrey and pundits Rio Ferdinand, Owen Hargreaves and Robbie Savage had to say on the next step for Leicester and their number 10. The Foxes also narrowly avoided a shock Carabao Cup exit after being taken to a penalty shootout by League Two outfit Stockport County. James Maddison was a man in demand this summer but will remain a Leicester City player until at least the new year. Reims defender Wout Faes was the club's first outfield signing and arrived on deadline day following the £70 million departure of Wesley Fofana to Chelsea. Brendan Rodgers, Fofana, Maddison, all their goals are similarly aligned. I'll do my best while I'm here because you can't go anywhere now until January.

BBC Sport have reported on this final crazy summer 2022 Premier League transfer window, which has broken all records.
A total of £3.88bn was spent by clubs in the five big European leagues (Spain, Italy, Farnce, England, Germany) and Premier League clubs were responsible for 49% of that spending. BBC Sport say that as well as being a Premier League record, it is the second highest summer spend by any club in the world after Real Madrid (£292m) in 2019. So that has already been bettered by 3% and we still have the January 2023 transfer window to go! A massive half a billion increase on the one window record!

[BBC Sport](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62758471) say that £1.9bn was spent by the 20 Premier League clubs, this absolutely smashes the previous PL transfer window record of summer 2017, when £1.4bn was laid out on signings.

We've ranked every Premier League club based upon their summer transfer window from 'total disaster' to 'champions of the summer.'
Signed for £51 million from Lyon, he could be a real star in the years to come. [Forest](https://www.givemesport.com/nottingham-forest), this summer’s champions of the transfer window. It’s been a quiet summer over at Selhurst Park with Patrick Vieira receiving just about £30 million pounds worth of investment in his squad. Arsenal FAIL on Neto & Luiz! And based on the way they’ve started the campaign, it looks like fans of the club are in for one hell of a ride as they scrap tooth and nail for every point on offer, in each and every game they play. [Spurs](https://www.givemesport.com/tottenham-hotspur) have invested heavily, bringing in several high-profile stars from both the UK and abroad. Chelsea sign Zakaria & Aubameyang! Southampton, much like Palace, didn’t dive particularly deep into their pockets either. [Leeds](https://www.givemesport.com/leeds-united) were always going to be up against it this summer as they bid to fill the void left by Raphinha and Kalvin Phillips. [Liverpool](https://www.givemesport.com/liverpool) made a late swoop for Arthur Melo on deadline day, securing his services on loan for the season. [ Everton](https://www.givemesport.com/everton) haven’t made any especially inspiring signings after their diabolical 2021/2022 season, and based off the way they’ve begun this campaign, it could more of the same for fans of the Toffees. [Foxes](https://www.givemesport.com/leicester-city) would be quite the understatement.
All the news and reaction before the latest round of matches as the Premier League squads are complete.
You’ll have read the programme notes and seen the situation that the club is in, so to have to watch virtually every single club in the top five leagues get players in and for us not to be able to improve, that was difficult, not just as a manager but for the players, because players want to compete. We want to fight for every point, every tackle and do everything we can to win. We’re ready to fight now but it’s going to be really, really important that the supporters really get behind the players. It’s not like the Leicester manager to be this rattled in public. I’ve got confidence he’ll understand the situation and the club’s decision we didn’t want to lose a very important player and a top player so late in the window. We need to have that belief and have a fighting chance. We have to bring the type of player who is right for the club, but in the end we didn’t manage that.” He also spoke about how he was hoping to go and view Pep Guardiola’s coaching methods – among other managers – when he was Under-19s coach at Liverpool – but the job at Rangers came up and he never got chance to. Was it going to be Sunday, Monday, what day was it going to be? It’s the first Old Firm derby of the season tomorrow and Celtic will have a new midfielder Oliver Abildgaard – their ninth summer signing – available to face Rangers should they wish. Diogo Jota also returned to training yesterday and should be in the squad at Goodison Park. It’ll be interesting to see how Tuchel balances the side once Aubameyang is up to speed, especially if he persists with a back four.

The number of Championship clubs spending during the window also doubled on the prior year, from seven to 14, but again was still behind what was typical before the pandemic (2017-19 three-year average: 21 clubs).
