Good morning everyone! While English clubs still have until tomorrow to get transfer deals over the line due to today's bank holiday, clubs around Europe need to complete all their business by midnight tonight. The biggest deal of the window so far in the UK was finalised on Sunday afternoon as Manchester City signed Kevin de Bruyne from Wolfsburg for a £55m fee. Will any other clubs break the bank today? Stick with us throughout the day and you will find out!

Speaking of breaking the bank... Italian journalist Tancredi Palmeri took to Twitter last night to report that Manchester United have made a £72.5m bid for Real Madrid star Gareth Bale. The Welshman has been linked to the Red Devils for some time as the Premier League giants desperately search for an attacking presence before the close of the transfer window. With it being this late in the game, surely Bale will not be swapping the Bernabeu for Old Trafford? Well, where the transfer window is concerned, nothing can be ruled out!

Is the transfer saga involving Chelsea and Everton defender John Stones over? According to Toffees boss Roberto Martinez, yes. Last week it was reported that the England international had handed in a transfer request after Everton rejected three bids from the Blues. However, Martinez has claimed that Stones did not intend to lodge a transfer request in the first place. The Spaniard appears to suggest that the centre-back will remain at Goodison Park for the rest of the season, but with the transfer window still open, anything can happen!

So, who saw this one coming then? According to RMC Sport, Manchester United have put forward a £36.3m bid for Monaco teenager Anthony Martial. As we all know, United are keen to bolster their attacking options before tomorrow's transfer deadline. Is Martial the answer? The Frenchman scored eight goals in 31 Ligue 1 appearances last season.

Reports in Italy have surfaced claiming that Real Madrid are plotting a shock move for Liverpool left-back Alberto Moreno. The Spaniard joined the Merseyside club from Sevilla last year, but has struggled for first-team action this season following the recent arrival of 18-year-old Joe Gomez.

More news from Manchester United now (I have a feeling we'll be hearing a lot about them in the next couple of days!). There have been suggestions that the club will make a late move for Ajax goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen.

The speculation comes amid reports that David de Gea is on the verge of signing for Real Madrid.

Southampton midfielder Victor Wanyama has been heavily linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur, and with the transfer window closing tomorrow, any potential deal will need to be finalised swiftly. According to Sky Sports News, the 24-year-old has not travelled to meet up with the Kenya squad as planned. So, does this mean that the midfielder is on the verge of an exit from St Mary's?

It looks as though Chelsea are closing in on signing a new defender, but it's not the one that has been dominating the headlines... As we all know, the Blues have had three bids for Everton centre-back John Stones knocked back, and it appears that Chelsea may have given up their pursuit. According to The Mirror, the reigning Premier League champions have agreed a deal to sign Nantes defender Papy Djilobodji.

As mentioned earlier, the transfer window closes at midnight for most clubs around Europe. In Spain, Athletic Bilbao have confirmed that an agreement has been reached "in principle" to sign Raul Garcia from Atletico Madrid. Read more.

DEAL AGREED? As mentioned earlier, Manchester United are closing in on the surprise capture of Monaco forward Anthony Martial.
