  Preamble

Manchester United may - only may - have done all of their major incoming business which means no left-back. If a last minute dot com opportunity arises then this will be considered so let’s see but for the moment it seems likely that Carlos Baleba was the club’s last signing of the summer window.

A lot of people are highly invested in people moving companies and changing jobs. You do not get this with accountancy or waste management.

In case any players do not get a move today and are desperate to get out of their club, there are options. Not all country’s celebrate deadline day on 1 September, so there is still hope of heading off to Turkey or Portugal.

Here are a list of deadline days, according to Fifa.

• England, France, Germany, Italy, Spain – 1 September

• Argentina, Netherlands - 2 September

• Scotland - 3 September

• Turkey - 4 September

• Russia - 10 September

• Brazil - 11 September

• Portugal - 15 September

• UAE - 28 September

• Saudi - 12 October

Manchester United’s Jack Moorhouse is expected to leave the club on loan today. He has interest from a few League One clubs, most notably Plymouth, but is also wanted by Scottish Premiership side Dundee.

With Iliman Ndiaye, seemingly, on his way to Manchester City, Everton have quickly lined up a replacement from … ermmmmm… Manchester City. Jack Grealish is set to return to Hill Dickinson Stadium to replicate his season-long loan with the Toffees.

What deadline day is really about is livebloggers tenuously finding links to old articles they have written. On that note …

Iliman Ndiaye has already played for a Manchester club … Hyde.

The window will be calmly closed and pulled to at 11pm BST. The fun, however, does not stop there because teams can be permitted an additional two hours to complete deals as long as a deal sheet, confirming a deal is agreed, was submitted before the cut-off.

I did get a message from someone last night suggesting that Iliman Ndiaye could end up signing for Chelsea. I may as well put that out there in case I look like a genius come 11pm.

Here is a quick run through the state of play via the latest overnight from our reporters.

Iliman Ndiaye is, currently, off to Manchester City after deciding against a Roberto De Zerbi reunion at Tottenham.

Bradley Barcola is now a Liverpool player, as is Cody Gakpo, who will not be sold to Manchester City.

Can Arsenal get a deal for Julian Alvarez over the line?

Some striker movement.

Borussia Dortmund have agreed a deal to sign Ethan Nwaneri on loan from Arsenal. The teenager has struggled for opportunities at the champions and will hopefully get regular football in Germany. Arsenal are still after attacking additions and are believed to be interested in Lyon winger Malick Fofana.

Finally, a bit of drama in the world of football. This is the day most anticipated by many, those more interested in the boardroom than what happens on the pitch. It has become modern-day theatre, leaving us all glued to social media, TV and some very trusty live blogging of all the events.

Regardless of circumstances, deadline day always get a huge buildup but is often a bit of a damp squib. Today, however, feels like it will be highly-charged and an expensive one for cheque book signers. The list of potential deals is already very long and it will only lengthen throughout the day, because there will inevitability be a surprise or two before the clock strikes 11pm BST.

Manchester City could end up spending around £200m today, which would put them in the spicy meatball category. Everton is heading for a busy one of ins and outs, while Hull are worth keeping an eye on. Tottenham will add a couple and you have to imagine Newcastle will have something up their sleeve.
