Austria international David Affengruber said: “It is a special day for me and my career. This is a big next step for me, and I am very proud and happy to be here.

“It’s been a long day, but a very special one. You don’t often get an opportunity like this. Now, I’m just happy to be here, and very motivated to get started.”

Fulham have signed Elche centre-back David Affengruber, 25, for an undisclosed fee.

Manchester City have spent a Premier League record £458m for a single transfer window, passing Liverpool's £415m from last summer.

However, City have also sold about £300m worth of players.

Aston Villa boss Unai Emery threw down the challenge and Tammy Abraham has chosen to accept it.

The striker's decision to turn down Everton's approach on deadline day shows his desire to make an impact at Villa Park.

Abraham was never looking to leave this summer, there was no plan to find an exit even after a frustrating return to Villa in January.

He was happy, although Villa were open to letting him leave which is why they entertained Ipswich's loan offer last week.

Yet on Monday, Abraham came on as a second-half substitute in the 1-0 defeat to Arsenal and, afterwards, Emery said it was the 28-year-old's decision to stay and reject the Tractor Boys' interest.

That came with a caveat, though, with Emery demanding Abraham improve and find the levels he wants after three goals in 19 appearances last season, following an £18.25m move from Besitkas.

The fact Abraham had another route out on deadline day, to Everton who were left scrambling when their £40m deal for Monaco's Folarin Balogun hung in the balance, and decided to stay speaks volumes for his character and determination.

Record £65m signing Nicolas Jackson will be first choice and Brian Madjo is just 17 but with four competitions and Villa routinely facing three games a week Abraham will get his chance and it is one he must take.

Sources at Chelsea expressed frustration and anger after the transfer deadline passed.

The club believed its move for Lamine Camara was effectively complete after agreeing a fee with Monaco, conducting a medical and reaching agreement on personal terms.

However, Chelsea say they were informed in writing by Monaco that the deal would not proceed.

No explanation has been given, although sources with knowledge of the situation believe the development may be linked to Everton's proposed move for United States international striker Balogun.

Everton maintained throughout deadline day that talks were ongoing despite reports casting doubt over Balogun's medical.

While some reports suggested the deal was off, Chelsea made progress in negotiations for Camara having previously struggled to reach an agreement with Monaco.

Sources in France had stated Monaco needed to make a major sale this summer and preferred to sell Balogun. A source at the Ligue 1 club had previously indicated it would take a "substantial fee" to secure Camara's departure.

Camara featured in Monaco's 2-0 win over Marseille on Sunday evening, while Balogun was left out of the squad.

Yet, when doubts emerged over Balogun's proposed move, Monaco's asking price for Camara appeared to fall, making a move to Chelsea more achievable at £47m.

Once Balogun's transfer appeared to be back on track, Monaco seemed more willing to generate funds through the striker's departure than by selling Camara.

As a result, Chelsea's hopes of ending the transfer window with a late signing were left frustrated.

Monaco have been contacted for comments but not yet responded.

According to our information earlier, the fee for Ainsley Maitland-Niles is £3m. The 29-year-old, once of Arsenal, won five caps for England.

Everton have signed Lyon right-back Ainsley Maitland-Niles for an undisclosed fee.

Slipped through our net in the last hour but Hull City signed Wales winger Sorba Thomas from Championship side Stoke City for an undisclosed fee... which as Mike White said there is thought to be £8m plus add-ons.

He was signing number 17 before Christos Mouzakitis completed the set.

The Premier League said about 20 minutes ago that there were 10 deal sheets in. We've had two or three signings since then.

Hull City owner Acun Ilicali has just told us on BBC Radio Humberside “£8m plus add-ons” is what they’ve agreed for Sorba Thomas in response to reports out of the Stoke end that the deal is worth £10.5m plus add-ons.

Ben Chilwell said: "It's amazing to be back. It's nice to see some familiar faces, and I'm just really excited to get back in, see the boys and the fans - and get going again."

Former England defender Ben Chilwell had a loan spell at Crystal Palace from Chelsea in 2024-25 and helped the Eagles win the FA Cup.

He joined Chelsea's sister club Strasbourg last summer - but is back in London now as Palace's ninth summer signing.

Crystal Palace have signed Strasbourg left-back Ben Chilwell on a permanent deal.

While many of my colleagues are packing up and going home, I'm here until the bitter end.

I WILL NOT REST until I know if Crystal Palace have signed those guys.

He is Hull's 18th (EIGHTEENTH) summer signing.

Hull City have bagged Olympiacos midfielder Christos Mouzakitis for about £13m.

The 19-year-old has played 50 league games for the Athens club and represented Greece 11 times.

Can Enzo Fernandez replicate the success of some of his Argentine compatriots at Manchester City?

It's certainly a pretty decent list which includes Sergio Aguero, Carlos Tevez and Pablo Zabaleta.

Argentina midfielder Enzo Fernandez joined Chelsea in February 2023 for a then British record £107m.

He won the Conference League and Fifa Club World Cup under now City boss Enzo Maresca.

“I pride myself on continually improving my game. Anyone who’s worked with me will know how hard I train every single day and how much I put into matches," he said.

"I give absolutely everything and I can promise Manchester City that will continue now I’m here.

“I want to thank Hugo, Enzo, Khaldoon and everyone at City who has made this deal possible. I want to take the faith shown in me and repay it as soon as possible."

The £125m that Manchester City have shelled out on Enzo Fernandez makes him the joint record Premier League signing - level with Alexander Isak from Newcastle to Liverpool last year.

It is also the joint third biggest transfer ever - only behind PSG signing Neymar and Kylian Mbappe in 2017.
