Fernandez, Ndiaye, Woltemade: The transfers to watch before the window closes

With Premier League transfer deadline day approaching, sources point to several deals that could shape the final hours. Manchester City are reportedly the biggest spenders, having contacted Chelsea about Enzo Fernández, priced at £120m last month and left out of Xabi Alonso’s weekend squad—an indication that a deal may be progressing. Iliman Ndiaye’s move from Everton to City also looks likely, with a reported £65m agreement, while it would free Jack Grealish to return to Everton on loan. The US international Folarin Balogun is set to join Everton for €45m after a medical, replacing Beto who moved to Fiorentina. Nick Woltemade is expected on a £3.5m loan to Juventus without a purchase option. Arsenal have enquired about Lyon winger Malick Fofana amid a reluctance to meet his €40m asking price, and Harvey Elliott is set to leave Liverpool on loan to Valencia.
