Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital-owned Chelsea were the biggest spenders in the window with an outlay of $290 million that involved final day signing of Jadon Sancho from Manchester United.

Arsenal swooped in for Raheem Sterling from Stamford Bridge with the Englishman deemed surplus to requirements by their new manager Enzo Maresca.

Brentford sold their forward Ivan Toney to Saudi Club Al-Ahli whereas Manchester United signed PSG midfielder Manuel Ugarte for an initial £42.1m, which could rise to £50.5m after add-ons.

The Gunners also sold their youth-academy star Eddie Nketiah to Crystal Palace worth £30m and sold goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale to Southampton for £25m.
