Transfer news: Man Utd star 'agrees' exit, Tottenham duo to leave, Salah Saudi talks
Transfer news: Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and their Premier League rivals could still be busy despite the English transfer window closing on Friday.
The Premier League transfer window slammed shut on Friday night following a record-breaking few months. Top-flight clubs spent over £2billion on improving their squads ahead of the 2023-24 season, with Chelsea once again smashing the British record fee for a player.

However, deals can still be completed. Transfer windows across Europe and, most worryingly for many teams, in Saudi Arabia remain open.
Elsewhere, some clubs could have the opposite stance - hoping that Saudi clubs offer them the chance to offload their cast-offs. Manchester United and Arsenal have bloated squads that could still be trimmed over the next few weeks.
Further down the table, some teams hope to find a free transfer that could elevate their chances of success come the end of the campaign. Express Sport takes you through Monday’s transfer news.

Rest assured we will be back tomorrow as Premier League clubs continue to finalise exits for players, while Liverpool attempt to keep Al-Ittihad at bay.
The agent of Arsenal star Jorginho has rubbished talk of an exit.
The Italy star has been linked with a move to Turkish side Fenerbahce.
But it appears he will be staying put at the Emirates until January at least.
Jorginho's agent Joao Santos told TuttoMercatoWeb: "Jorginho is focused on Arsenal, on the Premier League and the Champions League. He will not go to Fenerbahce."
A Saudi Arabian delegation has arrived in London for talks over Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah, the Daily Mail reports.
A £150m offer from Al-Ittihad was rejected last week prior to the English transfer window closing.
the Saudi market remains open until September 7, with Liverpool figures sweating over the future of their star man.
Jurgen Klopp has insisted that Salah remains committed to Liverpool and the club's public position is that they do not want to sell, particularly with now no opportunity to source a replacement.
Piers Morgan has offered Jadon Sancho the opportunity to unleash his frustration in an interview akin to Cristiano Ronaldo’s groundbreaking conversation.
Sancho hit out at Man Utd boss Erik ten Hag after the United boss accused the winger of underperforming in training.
The 23-year-old was subsequently left out of the Red Devils’ squad for their defeat at Arsenal.
Journalist Morgan tweeted: "Hi Jadon, come on @PiersUncensored and I’ll get you out of this Ten Hag nightmare."
Man Utd icon Rio Ferdinand has told Jadon Sancho that he risks moving to Saudi Arabia.
Sancho was left out of the Red Devils team for their trip to Arsenal on Sunday, with Erik ten Hag surprisingly admitting that he omitted the winger due to his training performances.
But the 23-year-old hit back on social media, releasing a stunning statement that contradicted the Dutchman.
Former defender Ferdinand believes Sancho’s future could lie in the Middle East.
“There's no way Jadon is putting out a statement like that if he hasn't in his own eyes performed well,” Ferdinand said on his FIVE YouTube channel.
“That's the difference as well. On his chart, Jadon [might think] - 'I've trained alright', but the manager might have a different standard.
“There's two ways this ends. There's only one window open now and that's Saudi. Or you're on the bench or not getting in the squad for the rest of the season.”

Arsenal could sell January signing Jorginho over the coming days, reports suggest.
The midfielder was signed in the winter window as cover in midfield but the additions of Declan Rice and Kai Havertz have limited his opportunities for game time.
Jorginho supposedly has interest from Fenerbahce, Ajansspor report.
The former Chelsea star would be the 14th player to leave the Emirates Stadium this summer following a surprising overhaul of Mikel Arteta’s squad.
He would follow the likes of Granit Xhaka, Rob Holding and Folarin Balogun out of the door.
Liverpool fans watched on with bemusement as Mohamed Salah muted his celebration against Aston Villa.
A usually passionate celebrator of goals, the Egyptian was strangely unmoved by his goal in the 3-0 win over Aston Villa on Sunday.
Salah has been linked with an eye-watering move to Saudi Arabia this summer. Those rumours will persist while the Saudi transfer window remains active.
Wide-ranging reports claim the 30-year-old was offered a £1.5m per-week contract that would make him the best-paid player in world football - trumping Saudi moves for Neymar and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp said: "I've never had, and I don't have now, doubts about his future, his commitment to this club.
"Believe me, you can't imagine how much fuss the whole world makes and how calm we are with it. He's our player, he wants to play here and that's it."

Nearly 10 months after the Glazer family put Man Utd up for sale, reports suggest that the controversial siblings could now take the Red Devils off the market.
