Transfer Deadline Day LIVE! Chelsea confirm Aubameyang and Zakaria deals; Arsenal miss out on Douglas Luiz

Transfer deadline day LIVE!

The transfer window has officially shut, bringing an end to a hectic summer for Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham. The Gunners wanted to further bolster their midfield but failed with THREE bids for Douglas Luiz - and also missed out on signing Danilo after exploring that deal. Hector Bellerin has signed for Barcelona on a free transfer.

Chelsea have confirmed the signing of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, with Marcos Alonso heading to Barcelona in a player-plus-cash arrangement. The Blues have missed out on Memphis Depay but did have better luck with Denis Zakaria, with the Swiss midfielder joining on loan after Ajax defensive midfielder Edson Alvarez and PSG superstar Neymar stayed put.

Tottenham opted against signing Dan James, with Fulham getting the winger on loan. Bryan Gil went nowhere with no replacement found by Spurs. Follow all the latest transfer news, rumours and gossip as Transfer Deadline Day comes to an end with Standard Sport’s LIVE blog below!
