Every Deadline Day Deals Completed So Far 2024-25

Transfer Deadline Day is one of the most exhilarating times in the football calendar.

It’s a day filled with last-minute deals, shocking moves, and endless drama. Fans are glued to their screens, waiting for the final twists and turns before the window slams shut. As the hours tick down, clubs across Europe and beyond rush to finalize their squads for the season ahead.

This year’s Deadline Day did not disappoint. While many teams had completed their business early, the final day of the transfer window saw some significant movements, with a flurry of activity across the Premier League and other European leagues.

Major Premier League Moves

Chelsea’s Last-Minute Signings:

Chelsea, under the watchful eye of Todd Boehly, has been one of the most active clubs in the transfer market this summer. On Deadline Day, the Blues were once again at the center of attention.

The club has been in pursuit of Napoli’s star striker, Victor Osimhen, all day, and while that saga is still ongoing, they managed to secure the services of Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho on loan. Sancho, who has struggled to find consistent form at United, will be hoping to rejuvenate his career at Stamford Bridge.

Arsenal’s Deadkine Day Moves:

In another surprising twist, Arsenal’s Raheem Sterling is reportedly set to join Chelsea. Although this deal is still in the works, it highlights Chelsea’s ambition to strengthen their attacking options.

Meanwhile, Arsenal has signed goalkeeper Neto, but the Gunners’ most notable Deadline Day move was sending Aaron Ramsdale to Southampton in a deal worth around £18 million. Ramsdale’s departure marks a significant shift in Arsenal’s goalkeeping department.

Manchester United’s Tactical Rebuild:

Manchester United has had a relatively quiet window compared to their rivals. However, they made a significant Deadline Day signing by bringing in Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Manuel Ugarte for £50 million. Ugarte is expected to add steel and dynamism to United’s midfield, which has been a problem area for the team.

Scott McTominay, one of United’s homegrown talents, has moved to Napoli for £25.7 million. This move signals United’s intent to refresh their squad and focus on players who fit their new tactical approach under manager Erik ten Hag.

Key European Transfers

Scott McTominay to Napoli:

One of the most talked-about moves in Europe was Scott McTominay’s switch from Manchester United to Napoli. The Scottish midfielder, who has been a reliable squad player for United, will now test himself in Serie A. McTominay’s transfer is seen as a statement signing for Napoli, who are looking to build on their recent successes domestically and in Europe.

Wilfried Zaha’s Loan to Lyon:

Another notable move saw Wilfried Zaha leave Galatasaray to join Lyon on loan. Zaha, who has been a key player for Galatasaray, will bring experience and flair to the French side. This move could prove pivotal for Lyon as they aim to compete at the top end of Ligue 1.

Neal Maupay to Marseille:

Neal Maupay, who struggled to find form at Everton, has joined Marseille on loan. The French striker will be looking to rediscover his goal-scoring touch in Ligue 1 after a difficult spell in the Premier League. Marseille, who have been rebuilding their squad, will hope Maupay can add the firepower they need to challenge for domestic honors.
