Deadline Day: Full Of Late Rejection And Collapsed Deals
Liverpool made a late attempt to sign Chelsea right-back Malo Gusto on loan on transfer deadline day, but the move failed to materialise after the London club insisted on a permanent deal.
The Reds were reportedly keen to bring in the 23-year-old France international temporarily, but Chelsea were unwilling to consider a loan arrangement.
Meanwhile, Chelsea made a late approach for Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott as they searched for a potential replacement for Enzo Fernandez. However, Bournemouth had no interest in selling the 23-year-old former England Under-21 international this summer.
Chelsea also saw an enquiry for Arsenal midfielder Martin Zubimendi rejected. The Blues reportedly explored the possibility of signing the 27-year-old Spain international, but Arsenal made it clear they were not prepared to part with him.
At Manchester United, young striker Chido Obi is pushing for a loan move to either the Netherlands or Denmark, where the transfer windows remain open until Wednesday. Feyenoord are among the clubs reportedly interested in the 18-year-old.
United are also expected to undergo a major defensive rebuild next summer, with reports suggesting the club could target as many as three defenders. Luke Shaw, Harry Maguire, Lisandro Martinez and Matthijs de Ligt are reportedly facing uncertain futures as the club assesses its defensive options.
Elsewhere, Everton's interest in Monaco full-back Jordan Teze did not result in a deal after the Ligue 1 club's management blocked the Netherlands international from leaving.
At AC Milan, England defender Fikayo Tomori is set to return to Ruben Amorim's squad after resisting a move away from the Italian giants.
Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo has also held talks with the club's hierarchy following the decision to reject Manchester City's attempt to sign him.
The Netherlands international reportedly had "clear the air" discussions with the Reds after the proposed move was blocked.
In the Championship, Wrexham are interested in former England striker Jamie Vardy. The 39-year-old free agent is also attracting interest from Brazilian side Sao Paulo and League One club Sheffield Wednesday.
