Tonight, the curtain will finally be drawn on transfers in Europe. Of course, a plethora of switches from one club to another have taken place while some are still on probation due to differences agreement, fee, payment and the likes.

Fiorentina’s Amrabat is keenly pushing to join the Red Devils but seems to be pegged down by a disagreement in purchase fee between both sides. Manchester United are reluctant to pay a fee of £25million for the Morrican as they rather plan a meagre £1.7million loan deal. Manchester United will push today once again.
Ryan Granvenberch – Liverpool
Bayern Munchen’s Ryan Gravenberch has asked to leave the club and has reportedly reached an agreement to join Klopp’s squad for a fee of £40million. Both teams have signed paper agreements and Ryan hasn’t travelled but there is a possibility that everything will be resolved today.
