The transfers to watch before window closes

BBC Sport's football experts picks out the standout transfers that could go through before Tuesday's 23:00 BST English deadline.

The transfers to watch before window closes

As the summer transfer window nears its close, several high-profile moves could go through in the final hours. Atletico Madrid striker Julian Alvarez's potential transfer to Arsenal is the biggest deal to watch, with the Gunners having a long-term interest in the 26-year-old. Atleti is seeking a fee of 150m euros (£128m) for the player, who has missed multiple training sessions and traveled to face Sevilla on Saturday.

Enzo Fernandez, an Argentina midfielder, could also leave Manchester City for Chelsea, with Enzo Maresca hoping to bolster his ranks with a club-record deal. Cody Gakpo's future at Manchester City is uncertain, with Liverpool expressing interest and Crystal Palace potentially still in the running. Meanwhile, Everton is close to re-signing striker Richarlison, who has indicated his desire to leave Spurs.

Manchester United's deadline-day activity may focus on smaller deals, with a potential move for Netherlands forward Joshua Zirkzee being the main focus.
