And that will do it for this live blog, but donât worry, the coverage doesnât stop there. Robert Molnarâs live blog is underway. Follow it here:Â https://thetopflight.com/2015/08/31/premier-league-deadline-day-live-2/
13:59 Wolfsburg have replaced one Belgian player with another. A day after selling Kevin De Bruyne to Manchester City for £55m, the German club have reinvested the money in Tottenham winger Ismail Azzaoui. The highly-rated 17-year-old never featured in the Premier League.
13:45 Leicester City and QPR are interested in Hull City winger Ahmed Elmohammady. Hull will be reluctant to sell, however; Elmohamady has appeared in all five of their Championship games this season.
13:37Â The lowdown on Manchester United target Anthony Martial:

13:33Â West Ham forward Modibo Maiga has signed for Saudi Arabian side Al Nassr for an undisclosed fee, according to the BBC. Paving the way for Jelavic?
13:26Â Rooney Mk. 2?
At ÂŁ36m, Martial would become the world's most expensive teenager. Eleven years to the day since Wayne Rooney broke the same record...
â Mark Ogden (@MarkOgden_) August 31, 2015
13:24 West Ham and Everton are fighting for Aaron Lennonâs signature. The Tottenham winger canât get a look in Mauricio Pochettinoâs side and his future at White Hart Lane appears over. Lennon spent the end of last season on loan at Goodison Park, impressing in a four month spell.

13:10Â Former AC Milan defender Alessandro Nesta is set to be announced as the new manager of Miami FC. The MLS continues to attract the worldâs greatest.

12:51Â Aston Villa are hoping to offload winger Charles NâZogbia. The 29-year-old hasnât featured in any match day squad this season and his ÂŁ63,000 per-week wages take up a large chunk of Villaâs wage bill.
12:48Â West Hamâs transfer dealings arenât quite finished. Along with Jelavic, Victor Moses and Alex Song are also set to join the Hammers on loan from Chelsea and Barcelona respectively.

12:43Â AC Milan are interested in QPRâs Sandro. The Brazilian midfielder is clear to play for the Râs after obtaining a new work visa but isnât guaranteed an immediate return to QPRâs line-up.
12:39 Pedro, a cheaper option, offered United an immediate solution. Instead they went for 19-year-old Martial, who is wrw under immediate pressure to spark Unitedâs languid attack.
12:34Â A long-term solution for a short-term problem?
9 - Anthony Martial is the top scorer among the under-20 players in the European Top 5 leagues since last season (9). @ManUtd ?

12:29Â Mourinho has his defender:
Papy Djilobodji due for medical at #CFC ahead of proposed cut-price move from Nantes. Senegal CB in last year of contract at Ligue 1 club...
â Dominic Fifield (@domfifield) August 31, 2015
12:24Â Javier Hernandez arriving for his medical at Bayer Leverkusen:
Hier ist er! #BILD erwischte Javier #Chicharito #Hernandez vorm Medizincheck in #Leverkusen vor wenigen Minuten. pic.twitter.com/yuhGLg1IP3

12:21 Itâs been a difficult summer for Monaco manager Leonardo Jardim, who has said goodbye to a lot of talent. Geoffrey Kondogbia (Inter Milan), Yannick Ferreira Carrasco (Atletico Madrid), Layvin Kurzawa (Paris Saint-Germain) and Aymen Abdennour (Valencia) have all departed, and now Martial is set to sign for Manchester United.
12:10 The French Football Federation have released a statement confirming Anthony Martial has left the teamâs base.
It reads: âAnthony Martial was presented Monday at 11:00 at the gathering of the France team at Clairefontaine. He requested from Didier Deschamps permission to travel to England to sign a contract with Manchester United.
âGiven the exceptional circumstances, the coach has acceded to the request of the player.
âAnthony Martial left Clairefontaine Monday at 12:00. He will return on Tuesday morning.â
12:06Â Djilobodji is a 26-year-old defender who plays for Nantes. With John Terryâs future looking bleak after a shaky start to the season, Djilobodji, whoâs good on the ball and can also play as a defensive midfielder, is an ideal replacement.
12:00 Chelsea are reportedly interested in Senegal defender Papy Djilobodji, and itâs clear to see why:
30 - Chelsea have faced 30 opposition shots on target this season, more than any other PL side (Man City the fewest with 6). Peppered.
â OptaJoe (@OptaJoe) August 31, 2015
11:56Â According to Everton manager Roberto Martinez, John Stones âdidnât meanâ to submit a transfer request. How does one accidentally ask to leave?
11:52 France-based journalist Matt Spiro:
French FA have given Anthony Martial permission to leave national team base in order to seal transfer #MUFC #Monaco
â Matt Spiro (@mattspiro) August 31, 2015
11:44 United have sold a goalkeeper, but itâs not David De Gea. Anders Lindegaard has signed for West Brom on a free, according to the Daily Mirror.

11:39 Several clubs are interested in Fabio Borini according to BBC Sportâs Phil McNulty:
Inter offer for Borini comes in at ÂŁ6m. Watford have offered ÂŁ7m. Fiorentina still in but Sunderland's ÂŁ8m rising to ÂŁ10m winning the day.
â Phil McNulty (@philmcnulty) August 31, 2015
11:37 Bournemouth are the latest club linked with QPR striker Charlie Austin. Austin has also drawn the interest of Manchester United, West Brom and Newcastle.
11:32 Tottenhamâs Erik Lamela is wanted by Marseille, according to the Mail. The French club are yet to make a bid however.

11:31 Norwich are close to signing Dynamo Kiev striker Diedonne Mbokani. The 29-year-old has flown in for a medical and will cost the Canaries between £5m-£6m.
11:29 Whatâs the shortest time a player has spent at a club? Burnley have sold striker Jelle Vossen just eight weeks after signing him, according to the Daily Mail. Just four starts were enough for manager Sean Dyche to deem Vossen a surplus to requirements, and he has been sold to Club Brugge. Farewell, Jelle.
11:24 United fan Nooruddean Choudryâs ominous outlook:
Hernandez to Leverkusen. Januzaj on loan to Dortmund. If Rooney gets injured, we're down to James Wilson and carton of Ribena.
â Nooruddean (@BeardedGenius) August 31, 2015
11:22Â If United do bring in a goalkeeper to replace David De Gea it wonât be Ajax shot-stopper Jasper Cillessen, according to Ajax director of football Marc Overmars. United havenât made contact with the Dutch club, Overmars reportedly told De Telegraaf.
11:17 Some European transfer news â Inter Milan have completed the signing of Wolfsburg forward Ivan Perisic for a fee thought to be worth ÂŁ14.6m.
11:15 Karlsen also describes Martial as âsomething between a second striker and a centre forwardâ.
11:13 Former Monaco CEO Tor-Kristian Karlsen shares his thoughts on Anthony Martial, Unitedâs latest target:
Outstanding features: smart movement, excellent close control/touch (and overall technical ability), makes everything look simple (2/7)
â Tor-Kristian Karlsen (@karlsentk) August 31, 2015
Very strong in 1v1 situations, obviously very quick/change of pace, surprisingly composed in front of goal for such a young player (3/7)
â Tor-Kristian Karlsen (@karlsentk) August 31, 2015
As a vague reference he can in some way be reminiscent of a young Thierry Henry (not the spitting image, but there are similarities) (4/7)
â Tor-Kristian Karlsen (@karlsentk) August 31, 2015
On the flip side there are issues about consistency, ability to impose himself physically and possibly a certain lack of determination (5/7)
â Tor-Kristian Karlsen (@karlsentk) August 31, 2015
As for the price, Monaco clearly believe Martial is to become a world beater in a 1-2 year perspective (many "insiders" seem to agree) (6/7)
â Tor-Kristian Karlsen (@karlsentk) August 31, 2015
So it's all about future projections & pricing of potential. Could be worth 10 million in a year, could be worth 80 million... (7/7)
â Tor-Kristian Karlsen (@karlsentk) August 31, 2015
11:06 Adnan Januzaj is in advanced talks to join Borussia Dortmund on loan, according to Sky Sports. Like Hernandez, it just hasnât worked for Januzaj under Van Gaal.
10:59Â Newcastle have made a ÂŁ7 million bid for Hamburg striker Pierre-Michel Lasogga. Given Aleksandar Mitrovicâs disciplinary record, Steve McLaren wants a striker who isnât permanently suspended.
10:54Â Barry Bannanâs departure from Crystal Palace to Sheffield Wednesday will be confirmed in the next 24 hours, reports the Croydon Advertiser.
10:50 Liverpool have beaten Porto and Monaco to the signature of Nigerian starlet Taiwo Awoniyi. The 18-year-old signs from Nigerian club Imperial Academy for ÂŁ800,000, which could rise to ÂŁ3m. Awoniyi, a striker compared to Christian Benteke, will be loaned out as he doesnât have a work permit.
10:38 And you can add Charlie Austinâs name to the list of players on Pulisâ radar. West Brom will swoop if Saido Berahino leaves, report the Telegraph.
10:33 West Brom are a club with intent. After signing Jonny Evans from Manchester United on Saturday, Baggies boss Tony Pulis wants to add Jose Enrique, David Marshall and Matt Phillips before tomorrowâs deadline, according to the Mirror.

10:27 Javier Hernandez is close to joining Bayer Leverkusen for ÂŁ9 million. Despite Unitedâs dearth of attacking options, they are willing to let Hernandez depart.

10:26 Itâs all rather quiet on the Chelsea front. John Stonesâ attempts to force a move to West London by handing in a transfer request were shunned by Everton, while Paul Pogbaâs appearance for Juventus in yesterdayâs 2-1 loss at Roma suggests he wonât be joining Jose Mourinhoâs team. That could all change though at the sight of Roman Abramovichâs chequebook.
Liverpool have accepted Sunderland's offer of ÂŁ8m - which may rise to ÂŁ10m with add-ons - for Borini. Been here before with this one though.
â Phil McNulty (@philmcnulty) August 31, 2015
10:03 Sky sources (so, Twitter) confirm West Ham have agreed a deal with Hull for striker Nikica Jelavic.
09:57 Real Madrid goalkeeper Keylor Navas has been asked to delay his flight out of Spain for international duty so that he can be included in a swap deal for De Gea, according to the Mail.
09:51 Sadio Mane and Victor Wanyama are staying at Southampton, according to manager Ronald Koeman. Mane is reportedly wanted by United and Wanyama has asked to leave but Koeman is insistent on keeping two of his most prized assets.
09:49Â Odds on QPR forward Charlie Austin signing for Manchester United were as low as 1/2 last night. Theyâve eased since, but itâs no wonder United are linked with the striker who scored 18 goals last season for the relegated Râs and has already netted four times this campaign.
09:41 The Mirror are reporting Italian champions Juventusâ interest in Manchester City midfielder Samir Nasri, whose place on the bench was strengthened with the arrival of Kevin De Bruyne yesterday. Nasri wants to stay but is already behind Raheem Sterling and David Silva in the pecking order.

09:40 Going back to the United/Martial rumours, the Monaco youngster was recently called up to the senior France squad for the first time. A pacy forward, Martial has drawn comparisons with Thierry Henry, himself a former Monaco player before reaching stardom.
09:33Â Nathaniel Chalobah, the Chelsea youngster who was expected to make a first-team breakthrough this campaign, was in Naples last night ahead of a loan move to Serie A outfit Napoli.
09:25Â Sunderland have made an ÂŁ8 million for Liverpool striker Fabio Borini, according to the Daily Mail. With Daniel Sturridge returning to training last week and the summer arrivals of Christian Benteke, Danny Ings, Roberto Firmino and Divock Origi, Borini isnât a part of Brendan Rodgersâ plans.
09:15 Now, I donât speak Italian, but that tweet from journalist Gianluca Di Marzio seems to suggest Tottenham Hotspur have made a bid of âŹ25m with add ons for Zenit St. Petersburgâs Axel Witsel.

Su #Witsel, il @SpursOfficial sarebbe a 25 piÚ 2 di bonus: il @acmilan può prenderlo solo in prestito con obbligo, il giocatore vuol venire
â Gianluca Di Marzio (@DiMarzio) August 31, 2015
09:11Â In four league games the Red Devils have netted just three times. Monacoâs 19-year-old forward Anthony Martial is being linked with a move to United, as is QPR hotshot Charlie Austin.
08: 59 When asked whether De Gea was set for sunny Spain, United boss Louis van Gaal said: âI donât know. We have to wait and see but I donât want to interfere.â
08:55 Weâll start off Manchester United âkeeper David De Gea. Various outlets, including ESPN and Marca, have reported the Spaniardsâ arrival at Real Madrid for a fee of around ÂŁ30m is imminent.

08:47 Good morning and welcome to We Are Hooligansâ coverage of transfer deadline day! Weâll have rumours, done deals and gossip, so stick around and letâs enjoy this wonderful period of the football season together.
