Premier League Transfer Deadline: Key Players to Watch

Premier League clubs are in a race against time to complete significant transfers before the summer transfer window closes on Tuesday at 23:00 BST. Key players in the spotlight include Atletico Madrid forward Julian Alvarez, who is attracting interest from Arsenal and Barcelona, with Atletico Madrid reportedly seeking €150m (£128m) for the 26-year-old.

Alvarez has missed several training sessions and was excluded from Atletico's squad to face Sevilla, intensifying speculation about his future. Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez is also a target for Manchester City, who may make a substantial offer, potentially breaking their club-record transfer fee.

Fernandez missed Chelsea's recent victory over Brighton, indicating uncertainty about his position. Additionally, Liverpool's Cody Gakpo is in discussions with Manchester City, who are prepared to offer around £85m, while Tottenham is also interested.

Liverpool would only agree to a Gakpo transfer if they can secure another attacking player, with Ismaila Sarr from Crystal Palace being a target.
