Transfer deadline day for Europe's top leagues saw many teams making last-minute deals as the window closed. U.S. striker Folarin Balogun was expected to join Everton from Monaco, while Manchester City continued their big spending with a move for Everton winger Iliman Ndiaye for £81 million. Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez's move to the Etihad Stadium also seemed unlikely as time ran short.
Jack Grealish was set to return to Everton on loan for another season. The Premier League's window closed at 10:00 PM GMT, with a record-breaking £3.8 billion spent so far, surpassing the previous record of £4.25 billion set in 2025. Spain, Italy, Germany, and France also had their deadline days, with the latter three closing at 6:00 PM GMT and Spain at 11:59 PM GMT.
In Aston Villa, star players left while new signings such as Ibrahim Mbaye from Paris Saint-Germain joined a revamped attack, which included Nicolas Jackson and Alejandro Garnacho.
