The Scottish Premiership has also seen considerable activity, with St Johnstone securing Stephen Duke McKenna on loan from Harrogate Town, Motherwell adding Calum Ward to their ranks, and Hearts bringing in Harry Milne from Partick Thistle.
Looking back at the previous day's activities, Tottenham completed a loan deal for Lens defender Kevin Danso with an obligation to buy, while Manchester United secured Patrick Dorgu from Lecce for £25m plus add-ons. In a surprising move, Marcus Rashford joined Aston Villa on loan.
