Transfer Deadline Day is upon us, and there are a flurry of moves expected to be completed before the window closes.
Fans across the country will be hoping their clubs’ long pursuits of European stars come to an end with a positive resolution, although that is not necessarily always the case.
Manchester United and Manchester City have both been active in the summer window but are likely to still have their eyes cast towards potential recruits, following a varied start to the season for both teams.
It is often the case that highly-contestable moves tend to go down to the wire, with a selling club reluctantly letting their star player go, or a desperate buying club paying over the odds to secure their man.
That may well be the case on this Deadline Day, and those decisions may come in the final hours. However, while the window shuts promptly at 11pm this evening, that isn't the end of the transfer frenzy.
How can players be signed after the transfer deadline?
There is only one-way players can be signed immediately after the deadline and that is by having a deal sheet accepted by the Premier League.
A deal sheet affords purchasing clubs two additional hours to finalise their administrative work on a transfer, but only once they have proven that an agreement is in place to sign a player.
These types of transfers are rare and are often the work of a desperate chief executive in an attempt to appease fan anger at the final juncture of the window.
How else can players still be signed after the October 5 deadline?
English clubs can sign players in an 11-day domestic window following the main deadline on October 5.
The terms of this new window format are strict and specify that no Premier League-to-Premier League transfers can take place after the initial deadline.
Clubs in the top tier can poach players from the EFL and vice versa, but deals involving two of England’s top-flight sides must be concluded before Monday’s cut-off.


themanchestereveningnews--2020-10-05--Man City defender Adarabioyo to secure permanent move to Premier League club

Tosin Adarabioyo is set to complete a permanent move away from Manchester City on deadline day , with West Ham and Fulham interested .
The deal would have to be completed before the 11pm deadline given it is between Premier League clubs but there is confidence that it can be sorted in time .
Any fee involved will be substantially lower given the player is in the final year of his contract and has not been part of City 's plans for some time .
Adarabioyo was previously a poster boy for the academy and made his debut under Manuel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the FA Cup in February 2016 .
Pep Guardiola was instantly impressed on arriving at the Etihad , declaring in his first pre-season that the youngster had what was required to immediately challenge for a first-team place .
But the prospect came close to leaving less than 12 months later on a free transfer after getting just 121 minutes of game time before the club finally agreed terms to keep him .
Adarabioyo hoped that loan deals in the Championship with West Brom and Blackburn would be enough to get him back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and spoke as recently as this year of his dream of captaining the club where he grew up .
But the decision not to recall him last season during City 's defensive crises was not taken as a good indicator and he has had no involvement with the first-team squad since returning .
Nathan Ake and Ruben Dias have been brought in for a combined sum of more than £100m , while John Stones has also remained at the club despite being considered for an exit .

A £1m project to expand a Tameside primary school has been signed off by town hall chiefs .
Cabinet members Councillors Oliver Ryan and Leanne Feeley have agreed to fund the building of a new extension at St John ’ s Church of England primary school in Dukinfield .

themanchestereveningnews--2020-10-05--Wales considering quarantines for visitors from UK coronavirus hotspots

Visitors travelling into Wales from the UK 's coronavirus hotspots could soon be asked to self-isolate on arrival , according to the Welsh Government .
Health Minister Vaughan Gething said Welsh authorities were currently deliberating the possibility of enforcing powers currently used for international arrivals from countries with high levels of Covid-19 .
These powers would impose restrictions on people entering Wales from areas of England , Scotland and Northern Ireland with high levels of coronavirus .
He told a press conference on Monday : “ We ’ re actively considering what we should do and I ’ ve discussed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
“ So for some of the hotspot areas in the north of England , the North East and North West , and the West Midlands , if they were other countries or territories , we would have quarantine regulations for them to return to the UK.
” He added that any potential quarantine restrictions would apply to people from “ high incidence areas across the UK ” .
“ We ’ re having to consider how we use our power to protect lower-prevalence areas of Wales but at the same time , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a whole-nation approach , ” Mr Gething added .
“ There ’ s no good reason to prevent someone from Devon , at this point in time , coming to visit a pre-booked holiday or trip to Pembrokeshire .
“ So we are thinking about how we use something that is proportionate and deals with the reality of the threat that we face.
” Speaking on the decision , which is understood to be made later today , Mr Gething said : “ We ’ ll need to take some advice from our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ advisers , and we ’ ll then need to consider whether this is the right course of action .
“ Because the measures we ’ ve introduced in Wales are about isolating areas with a higher prevalence of coronavirus and protecting lower prevalence areas too .
What do you think about this ?
Have your say in the comments below “ It ’ s consistent with the approach that all four UK nations have taken to international travel and quarantine restrictions , where we recognise that higher prevalence areas in other parts of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ being reimported or having an opportunity to spread further within the UK.
” Mr Gething said it was “ disappointing ” that Boris Johnson had not responded to a letter from First Minister Mark Drakeford asking for travel restrictions to apply to areas of England under local lockdown .
In Wales , people must not enter or leave an area subjected to such restrictions without a reasonable excuse – which does not include travelling for a holiday .
Mr Gething added that the number of hospital admissions in the country has also risen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ last month , we ’ ve seen a rapid increase in cases across Wales – the virus returned as people came home from holiday abroad and has been spread also as people socialised without social distancing crucially and most often in people 's home , '' he said .
`` The majority have had a mild illness so far .
But an increase in cases is followed within two to three weeks by higher hospital admissions , higher critical care admissions and more deaths . ''
Latest figures have shown a sharp rise @ @ @ @ @ @ @ only two local authorities in north Wales that are not under a local lockdown .
The infection rate in the county almost doubled from 25.7 per 100,000 people based on a rolling seven-day average on Saturday to 47.4 per 100,000 on Sunday .
There is speculation the county could be the next to have lockdown measures imposed , with typically a rate of 50 cases per 100,000 being the point restrictions are considered .
The majority of Wales ' population remains under lockdown with Denbighshire , Flintshire , Conwy and Wrexham in north @ @ @ @ @ @ @ south , Cardiff , Swansea , Blaenau Gwent , Bridgend , Caerphilly borough , Llanelli in Carmarthenshire , Merthyr Tydfil , Rhondda Cynon Taf , Newport , Neath Port Talbot , the Vale of Glamorgan , and Torfaen are all subject to restrictions affecting a total of 2.35m people .

In the south, Cardiff, Swansea, Blaenau Gwent, Bridgend, Caerphilly borough, Llanelli in Carmarthenshire, Merthyr Tydfil, Rhondda Cynon Taf, Newport, Neath Port Talbot, the Vale of Glamorgan, and Torfaen are all subject to restrictions affecting a total of 2.35m people.

Borussia Dortmund full-back Thomas Meunier reiterated Jadon Sancho will not be joining Manchester United on deadline day.
The England international has been United's prime transfer target throughout the summer but an agreement with the Bundesliga side has not been reached.
Dortmund have slapped a €120m price tag on the former Manchester City youngster, a figure United refused to meet, and the German side set an August 10th deadline for any deal to be concluded.
While United remain interested in bringing Sancho to the Premier League, it's looking less likely with each passing hour that a deal will be struck this year.
Dortmund captain Marco Reus recently spoke of his delight about Sancho staying put and Meunier seemed equally enthused as he playfully told Sky Sports news: "Sancho is staying", as he entered Dortmund's training ground on Monday.
Sancho did not feature for Dortmund at the weekend due to a respiratory infection, having also missed the club's defeat to Bayern Munich in the Super Cup.

“I believe there are some who are born with talent, who have been touched by God's magic wand and who have class from a young age,” Edinson Cavani told Marca in February in 2018.
The player in question? Kylian Mbappe, who was halfway through his first season as a 19-year-old sensation with Paris Saint-Germain.
Cavani continued: “Mbappe, for example, is a player who has enormous potential and who is acquiring experience. He's already a worldwide figure, but it's up to him to be more and more. He is very young, even though he is recognised around the globe.
“To be a world-class name you can't just be a great player, but you also need to have personality and a certain behaviour and education. That's how you make it. That's the footballing life.”
Five months later, Mbappe scored in the World Cup final as France were crowned world champions off the back of a series of impressive performances from the now 21-year-old superstar.
At that point, though, Mbappe was still carving out his path in senior football. He had exploded onto the scene the previous season with Monaco, netting 15 Ligue 1 goals. But alongside Neymar and Cavani, he would flourish for PSG, scoring 13 times in his first season with the club before adding 33 in a brilliant second campaign.

themanchestereveningnews--2020-10-05--Manchester United's perfect Plan B will increase the pressure on Solskjaer

Life can come at you fast in football .
Just 71 days after jubilant scenes on the touchline at the King Power Stadium , where Manchester United secured third in the 2019/20 Premier League , Ole Gunnar Solskjaer became the favourite in the 2020/21 sack race .
For the second half of last season it was the top-four race that was occupying Solskjaer 's mind and an unbeaten run of 14 Premier League games helped United end the season with momentum .
But a disastrous start to this season , which could have been worse but for the fortuitous win @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Palace and Tottenham , has sabotaged that head of steam .
The air is very much out of United 's balloon .
The closure of the transfer window today is exercising minds at United right now and much of the fall-out from the seismic humiliation at the hands of Jose Mourinho 's Tottenham on Sunday is focusing on recruitment failings , but Solskjaer held his own hands up yesterday and he knows that the pressure will increase on him after this fiasco .
United have been awful in all three Premier League games @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it could have been more had Brighton been more accurate in a game where they hit the woodwork five times .
The problem for Solskjaer is that there is a ready-made replacement waiting in the wings too .

That 's not going to happen yet , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will loom over the Norwegian until his time at the club ends or he makes an indisputable case that he is the long-term answer in the dugout .
Solskjaer might have hoped that Pochettino would have a new job by now , but 11 months after he was dismissed by Tottenham he remains out of work and therefore an easy appointment .
The man who was favourite for the job before Solskjaer 's dream caretaker run remains very much in the background .
United 's faith in Solskjaer wo n't expire just yet @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it to press the panic button too early .
This was a risky appointment when the Norwegian was enjoying that prolonged honeymoon period .

But they did n't .
Solskjaer 's upgrade was confirmed in March and that early show of faith means United will be desperate for him to work out .

The incident is thought to be related to an ongoing feud between local gangs.
Two men have been since been arrested and police have stepped up patrols in the area.
A man, aged 20, has since been arrested on suspicion of affray and remains in custody for questioning.
A man, aged 19, has also been arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply and making threats to damage/destroy property. He remains in custody for questioning.
Detective Inspector, Louise Edwards of GMP’s City of Manchester Division, said: “Thankfully the victim only sustained minor injuries during the incident and has since been discharged from hospital.
"Although we have made two arrests, our enquiries are still very much active and ongoing and we want to take this opportunity to appeal to anyone who may have information to come forward and assist us with our enquiries.
“Were you in the area at the time and witnessed what happened? Or did you see anyone acting suspiciously around the time of the incident? Any information, no matter how large or small, will be hugely beneficial and we urge you to come forward.”
One resident on the estate told the M.E.N: "The victim walked to the ambulance. He seemed to be OK. There were a lot of people stood outside the pub.
"There's always people outside. Everybody's saying it's a drive-by shooting.
"There were armed police all over the place. It's obviously serious."

Forensics experts were seen to be examining the window of the pub.
Pictures from the scene showed the pub window had been damaged.
The shooting is not thought to be linked to a stabbing at a pub less than a mile away in Collyhurst on Friday night.

themanchestereveningnews--2020-10-05--Man City need another signing to match chairman comments on window

Khaldoon Al Mubarak always chooses his words carefully when he addresses Manchester City fans and this year 's annual address carried plenty of information about the transfer window .
Speaking six weeks ago , the chairman explained how the club always took a long-term view of the windows and the squad looking beyond a single year .
There is a set profile of player that the club look to bring in of players between 20 and 25 years old that can come in and take their game to the next level under Pep Guardiola ; that was evident in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ winger Ferran Torres and Nathan Ake .
At the same time , Al Mubarak also contended that sometimes it is necessary to shop outside of that particular window in order to get what is required for the immediate needs of the squad and that more faces would arrive .
“ We ’ ll be sensible and pragmatic about it but we will do what it takes , '' he said .
“ I think you ’ ve seen when it comes to the two acquisitions we have made , Ake and Ferran Torres @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the players clearly , these were our targets and when the opportunity came , we were able to come in very quickly and swiftly and do that business .
“ There are additional players we will be bringing in and we will stick to the plan obviously within the realities of the market that we live in today.
” At a time when City were looking at Kalidou Koulibaly in their priority pursuit of a central defender and an unlikely coup for Lionel Messi , all of the comments stacked up though .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ window though , City have only signed one more player .
Ruben Dias is expected to improve the first team as Ake and Torres are , but it is looking unlikely that the Blues will be able to get any more through the door .
Attempts to sign a left-back have been hindered by wanting to move Aleks Zinchenko on first , a midfielder was never on the cards despite widespread rumours and a striker search has also been quiet .
If City do n't sign anybody else before Monday 's 11pm deadline @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have gone down as the City chairman expected .

At the same time, Al Mubarak also contended that sometimes it is necessary to shop outside of that particular window in order to get what is required for the immediate needs of the squad and that more faces would arrive.
“We’ll be sensible and pragmatic about it but we will do what it takes," he said.
“I think you’ve seen when it comes to the two acquisitions we have made, Ake and Ferran Torres, we moved quickly, we knew the players clearly, these were our targets and when the opportunity came, we were able to come in very quickly and swiftly and do that business.
“There are additional players we will be bringing in and we will stick to the plan obviously within the realities of the market that we live in today.”
At a time when City were looking at Kalidou Koulibaly in their priority pursuit of a central defender and an unlikely coup for Lionel Messi, all of the comments stacked up though.

With time running out in the transfer window though, City have only signed one more player.
Ruben Dias is expected to improve the first team as Ake and Torres are, but it is looking unlikely that the Blues will be able to get any more through the door. Attempts to sign a left-back have been hindered by wanting to move Aleks Zinchenko on first, a midfielder was never on the cards despite widespread rumours and a striker search has also been quiet.
If City don't sign anybody else before Monday's 11pm deadline, it can't be said to have gone down as the City chairman expected.


themanchestereveningnews--2020-10-05--Crisis talks as Greater Manchester’s flagship masterplan dangles by a thread

It has been at least five years in the making , but the huge and contentious Greater Manchester Spatial Framework - considered crucial to the region ’ s economic future by most leaders here - is in jeopardy at the eleventh hour because of a single industrial park .
The framework , which maps out in broad terms where homes and businesses should be built between now and 2037 , was originally meant to be launched today at a high-profile press event .
But as the M.E.N .
revealed last week , an extraordinary last minute battle has erupted between @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Bredbury Park industrial estate - despite that site having been in the plans since they first emerged in 2016 .
The press event due today was cancelled last week .
But after crunch talks failed to reach a compromise over the weekend , the document itself may not now be published today either .
Tameside are objecting to the expansion of the Bredbury Park site , which is in next-door Stockport , on the basis of environmental and traffic concerns .
Local Labour MP Andrew Gwynne is also fiercely objecting .
But @ @ @ @ @ @ @ expansion as crucial to its economic future .
Further discussions are due to take place today , but after more than five years in the making , the plan remains up in the air on the day it was supposed to be unveiled .
Senior figures in several boroughs told the M.E.N .
this was now a nail-biting situation that could see the entire masterplan collapse after years of work .
“ I ’ m just so angry that it ’ s got to this eleventh hour - or beyond that even - @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it remains unclear exactly what will happen .
If the two boroughs can agree today , then the overall framework may yet be published as planned - although Stockport councillors were emailed last night by their director of place , Caroline Simpson , to advise that that was not expected to happen today .

Tameside are objecting to the expansion of the Bredbury Park site, which is in next-door Stockport, on the basis of environmental and traffic concerns. Local Labour MP Andrew Gwynne is also fiercely objecting.
But Stockport sees the proposed 90,000 sq m expansion as crucial to its economic future.
Further discussions are due to take place today, but after more than five years in the making, the plan remains up in the air on the day it was supposed to be unveiled.
Senior figures in several boroughs told the M.E.N. this was now a nail-biting situation that could see the entire masterplan collapse after years of work.
“I’m just so angry that it’s got to this eleventh hour - or beyond that even - stage,” said one.
Currently it remains unclear exactly what will happen.
