Transfer deadline day LIVE reaction: Arsenal, Liverpool, Newcastle, Man Utd, Leeds, Tottenham latest deals

One man certainly staying put for the foreseeable future is Joao Cancelo - the influential Manchester City full-back has signed an extension to his deal.

It was a funny sort of January for West Ham, viable contenders for the top four and with a Europa League knockout stage run to contend with, but unable to add any reinforcements to a squad that has already looked stretched on multiple occasions this season. While the ahead-of-schedule return to fitness of Kurt Zouma made a central defender less of a priority, David Moyes remains without a genuine alternative to Michail Antonio up front, which looks a major concern.

It sounds like the London club were trying right until the last to secure an option - the Evening Standard reports that a late move for Duvan Zapata of Atalanta fell through, while the club were also knocked back in their efforts to sign Darwin Nunez from Benfica. Another loan move for Jesse Lingard was a non-starter with Manchester United unwilling to let him leave to a rival for the Champions League places.

And as for new Everton teammate Donny van de Beek, this is not so much a second chance in English football as a proper first, as Mark Critchley explores.

From incomings at Tottenham to an outgoing. Dele Alli, once such a symbol of Spurs’ rise, leaves the club with a muddled identity and an uncertain future, both young enough to conceivably recapture the lost magic and a diminished entity for such a period to suggest this may be more than just a temporary drift.

Vithushan Ehantharajah on a footballer who heads to Everton is search of his lost self:

Antonio Conte made it clear how desperate he was for January reinforcements and Fabio Paratici and Daniel Levy belatedly delivered a pair of signings for the Tottenham manager, reaping familiar Turin soil to secure Rodrigo Bentancur and Dejan Kulusevski to fill holes in midfield and attack.

Bentancur will wear the number 30 shirt and Kulusevski takes the 21 jersey, numbers last owned by Gedson Fernandes and Juan Foyth. Big shoes to fill...

And here’s one that didn’t get over the line: Fulham and Liverpool had agreed terms over the signing of promising winger Fabio Carvalho, but a protracted negotiation over the transfer fee and the loaning back of the 19-year-old to Fulham saw Liverpool run out of time to complete a deal.

Need a round-up of all the major business that went through yesterday? Here you are...

Official confirmation of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s move to Barcelona was expected to come early this morning, but it appears to have been delayed ever so slightly as the Catalan club await final clearances from the relevant parties - and ready a snazzy announcement video, of course. After an eventful couple of months, the pressure wil be on the Gabonese striker to get up to speed reasonably quickly, but he should give Barcelona much-needed forward threat.

The gig of Everton manager isn’t the easiest, as Tony Evans explained last week:

Among the big movers of deadline day were Everton, with Frank Lampard’s influence immediately clear with the arrival of two attacking midfielders. Both Donny van de Beek and Dele Alli arrive on Merseyside with plenty to prove and join a strange-looking squad - can Lampard make it work?
