It's transfer deadline day for the majority of top leagues and many sides are still on the hunt for new signings. The biggest clubs in European football and clubs across the continent are still midway through their plans for next season. Teams are working tirelessly behind the scenes on identifying targets and figuring out their budgets.
Managers will be constantly assessing their squads with sporting directors and recruitment staff scanning the market for potential deals. A plethora of players will become available in the summer where clubs famously have more money to spend and aren't as restricted by financial fair play rules. The rumour mill is beginning to pick up pace and we've collated some of the biggest current transfer stories.
Today's biggest transfer stories
Liverpool view Michael Olise as the long-term successor to Mohamed Salah, according to the Daily Mail. The 23-year-old has excelled at Bayern Munich after joining from Crystal Palace and Liverpool are keeping tabs on the French international.
Tottenham reportedly made a deadline day approach for Jean-Philippe Mateta, according to Sky Sports. Spurs were in the market for attackers on deadline day and considered Mateta but they eventually signed Randal Kolo Muani on-loan.
Bayern Munich have reportedly joined the race to sign Marc Guéhi. The Crystal Palace captain was on the verge of joining Liverpool but the deal collapsed on deadline day. Guehi's contract expires next summer and Real Madrid have also been linked.
