In particular, former Chelsea captain Ben Chilwell has officially joined Strasbourg (France) on a 2-year contract. Ben Chilwell (26 years old) was a member of Leicester before joining Chelsea in 2020.

At Chelsea, he played a total of 70 matches, scored 8 goals and won the 2020-2021 Champions League.

Liverpool buy Isak, miss Guehi

The most notable is the blockbuster contract named Alexander Isak. The Swedish striker moved to Liverpool for 130 million pounds.

Almost immediately, Newcastle recruited striker Yoane Wissa (Brentford) for £50 million plus £5 million in additional fees to replace Alexander Isak.

On the last day of the transfer market, Liverpool were close to buying center back Marc Guehi (Crystal Palace) but everything fell apart at the last minute. The reason is said to be because Crystal Palace could not find a replacement for Guehi.

Aston Villa were one of the most active teams on the final day of the transfer window, successfully signing Jadon Sancho on loan from Man United and Harvey Elliott from Liverpool. Aston Villa also signed former Man United centre-back Victor Lindelof on a free transfer.

Man United send off Hoijlund, buy new goalkeeper

In addition to sending Sancho to Aston Villa, Man United have decided to loan striker Rasmus Hojlund to Napoli with an option to buy.

The Danish striker is not in coach Ruben Amorim's plans when Man United owns top strikers like Matheus Cunha or Benjamin Sesko. Not stopping there, Man United sold Antony to Real Betis for 25 million pounds.

The "Red Devils" also had time to add a goalkeeper position when buying Senne Lammens from Royal Antwerp (Belgium) for 21 million euros plus additional fees.

Meanwhile, Tottenham made a quality signing when they successfully borrowed French player Randal Kolo Muani from Juventus. The Italian team immediately borrowed Belgian striker Lois Openda from RB Leipzig as a replacement.

Other notable signings include: striker Georges Mikautadze (Georgia) joining Villarreal from Olympique Lyonnais; Marco Asensio moving to Fenerbahce (Türkiye) from PSG (France); AC Milan signing French midfielder Adrien Rabiot from Olympique Marseille; Swiss midfielder Manuel Akanji leaving Man City, joining Inter Milan on loan.
