Transfer deadline day LIVE reaction: Arsenal, Liverpool, Newcastle, Man Utd, Leeds, Tottenham latest deals
Follow all the latest news, rumours and deals on a frenetic day in the Premier League and beyond
Transfer deadline day is here with several Premier League teams looking set for a busy end to the window. Everton are aiming to sign Dele Alli on a permanent deal from Tottenham following the appointment of Frank Lampard, who has offered the former England international a chance to revive his career. It comes after Spurs completed the double signing of Dejan Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur from Juventus, with Tanguy Ndombele also leaving the club after agreeing to rejoin Lyon on loan until the end of the season.
Arsenal’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang arrived in Barcelona earlier on deadline day, with the move at one stage looking off. That seems to have changed and he has had a medical in Spain - it could be confirmed in the early hours. Jesse Lingard is now staying at Man United after a loan move broke down, while Donny van de Beek has secured a departure, moving on loan to Everton. Rangers, meanwhile, have completed the signing of Aaron Ramsey on loan from Juventus - but Liverpool’s move for Fabio Carvalho fell through late on.

... but is Dele Alli a done deal?

Everton capture Van de Beek...
Donny van de Beek has joined Everton on loan until the end of the season – it has the look of a potentially fantastic short-term boost for Frank Lampard’s new team, and a good escape route for the Dutch midfielder after a troubled start to life at Manchester United.
Done deal! Brighton sign and loan back Undav
An intriguing signing, this one. Brighton capture German striker Deniz Undav from Belgian club Union Saint-Gilloise. Tony Bloom owns both Brighton and Union SG, who are in a stunning title battle after getting promoted to the top flight last summer, and presumably the striker’s loan back to the Union is in order to help preserve their title push at the top of the Belgian Pro League.
Matt Targett: ‘It all happened so quick'
Matt Targett has spoken after joining Newcastle until the end of the season on loan from Aston Villa, sounding a bit like he had no great desire to go on loan.
“It happened all so quick, I got a phone call last night to say they’d agreed a loan with Villa, so happy to be here and can’t wait to get my teeth stuck in,” Targett told nufc.co.uk. “Looking from afar, you see all the players they’ve been linked with, the new owners, it’s exciting times to be here.
“I found out last night, I was back down south with my family and I had to rush back to Birmingham and speak to my agent. I had a brief phone call with Eddie Howe yesterday evening, he said he’s looking forward to working with me and I’m looking forward to working with him.”

Lingard not going anywhere on deadline day
Here’s all the latest from our Northern Football Correspondent, Mark Critchley:
Jesse Lingard is expected to stay at Manchester United after the collapse of his potential loan to Newcastle United during the final hours of the January transfer window.
Talks with Newcastle over the 29-year-old have ended, with Lingard now set to see out the last six months of his United contract at Old Trafford.
Newcastle revived their bid to sign Lingard on Monday, having pulled out of talks with United last week over their desired loan fee and a £12m bonus for avoiding relegation.
Ralf Rangnick, United’s interim manager, was willing to allow Lingard to leave though the Old Trafford hierarchy has concluded he will stay for the rest of the season.
West Ham also revived their interest in Lingard though United have been reluctant to let players join clubs also competing to qualify for next season’s Champions League.

Tottenham's Lo Celso joins Villarreal on loan
Giovani Lo Celso is yet another Spurs midfielder heading for the exit, and he joins Villarreal on loan. Antonio Conte is clearly not messing around this January: Kulusevski and Bentancur have joined from Juventus, while Ndombele, Lo Celso and Gil have all departed on loan, with Dele Alli close to joining Everton.
