Overview
- Manchester City have agreed terms to sign Iliman Ndiaye from Everton for about £65 million, according to multiple reports on Tuesday.
- City are also engaged in late talks to buy Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernández, with Chelsea valuing him in excess of £100 million and negotiations continuing close to the cut‑off.
- Liverpool completed the signing of Bradley Barcola from PSG and rejected an £85 million bid from City for Cody Gakpo after concluding they could not secure a ready replacement.
- Everton have reached a club‑to‑club agreement with AS Monaco for Folarin Balogun, with personal terms and a medical reported to be the remaining steps before the transfer is finalised.
- The final hours have produced a chain reaction of interdependent moves and fallback options, so clubs are racing to complete medicals, paperwork and registrations before the 2200 GMT deadline.
