Deadline day is here, and it promises to be a frantic end to the summer transfer window for many Premier League clubs.
Ivan Toney
Toney’s future has been one of the hot topics since before the transfer window opened.
The Brentford striker has been far from shy about his desire to move to a bigger club and must have anticipated having a plethora options after making an impact for England at the Euros.
But, despite meeting the Arsenal hierarchy, offers from the top clubs in the Premier League have been in short supply and if Toney is to leave west London a big-money switch to Saudi Arabia looks like the most likely outcome.
Toney has already verbally agreed a three-year contract worth an eye-watering £50m with Al Ahli, however they still need to agree a fee with Brentford.
talkSPORT understands that while links with Manchester United are wide of the mark, Chelsea are keeping tabs on the situation in the event they fail to land top target Victor Osimhen, himself wanted by Al Ahli.
Jadon Sancho
He may have made peace with manager Erik ten Hag but it is pretty clear Sancho does not have a future at Old Trafford after being left out of the squad for Manchester United’s first two Premier League games of the season.
As talkSPORT reported earlier this week Juventus have been the most serious suitors for the England international – after selling Federico Chiesa to Liverpool for £12.5m – but there is still an issue over the Italian giants’ reluctance to include an obligation to buy in any loan agreement.
James Ward-Prowse
It was only a year ago that West Ham paid Southampton £30m for their captain, but Ward-Prowse already appears to be surplus to requirements at the London Stadium.
Ward-Prowse is one of a number of players the Hammers are keen to offload along with Maxwell Cornet and Nayef Aguerd.
The England international is on decent money so a loan deal with West Ham contributing to that salary is the most likely scenario.
Interestingly, old club Saints have kept one domestic loan slot free by signing Aaron Ramsdale permanently and their boss Russell Martin is a huge Ward-Prowse advocate.
