Transfer News LIVE: All the done deals as Alexander Isak, Jadon Sancho and more forced last-minute moves plus updates on the deals that fell through, including Liverpool's Guehi blow

I wonder how Marc Guehi is feeling right now.

The bloke has been incredibly professional all window, continuing to play at his very best for Crystal Palace while having his heart set on a move to Liverpool.

And despite being Mr. Nice Guy in this window, doing everything right, and being the model pro, his dream move collapsed.

Meanwhile, both Alexander Isak and Yoane Wissa threw their toys out of the pram and got what they wanted.

What does that say for the state of our beautiful game?

Lewis Steele, Daily Mail Sport:

Many may think that Marc Guehi's move to Liverpool is dead in the water after what happened last night, but I assure you, this is not the last we will hear of this saga.

We have to remember that he only has a year left on his Crystal Palace deal, so his dream move to Liverpool may not be completely over.

The Reds could either go back in for him in January, and for less money, or agree a free transfer for next season.

I imagine they may face some competition in the future, but that shouldn't stop them from being in pole position.

We could still see Guehi in red at some point in the next year.

Liverpool's transfer window may have been the best of the lot, but it could have been even better.

Around 3pm yesterday, they agreed a £35million deal to sign Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi, who then underwent a medical.

So, why was he not on the list of deals I wrote a couple of posts ago, surely he signed, no?

Well, it all went Pete Tong as the evening progressed.

Oliver Glasner kicked up a fuss with Steve Parish, reportedly threatening to walk away from his role as manager if Guehi left. That, combined with the fact that Palace had not found a replacement for their skipper, meant the south Londoners pulled the plug on the deal at the eleventh hour.

I can see it now, Guehi in his new Liverpool tracksuit, ready to sign a deal to move to the Premier League champions, only to get a call to come back to Selhurst Park as the deal was off.

Pretty brutal.

I still find it hard to believe that Liverpool is actually spending this much money; it's mental.

This is the same club that spent just £12.5m last summer on one player, and now they are throwing their chequebook about like they are in a Las Vegas casino.

All good business, of course, but still crazy.

Once the Alexander Isak transfer went through, they broke the record for money spent in one window, which was previously held by Chelsea at £400m - the amount they spent in the summer of 2023.

Liverpool spent £446m this summer, including all add-ons.

I mean, what a transfer window Liverpool have had.

I know Liverpool fans who tore Richard Hughes apart verbally after only signing Federico Chiesa last summer, but now he is their hero.

Funny how times change.

Looking at the window that Liverpool have had in full, it's clear just how incredible it has been... surely they have done the best business in the Premier League this summer.

That being said, it's cost them more than a pretty penny.

Here are their new recruits in full:

Total: £446m (inc. add-ons)

You know, when a player makes a transfer, the club he is departing from typically wishes them well and gives thanks for their contributions to the club.

'No hard feelings' is a phrase that comes to mind.

Well, we all know that Alexander Isak's situation is not normal, and there certainly are some hard feelings toward him from a Newcastle perspective.

The club showed exactly what they thought of their now former striker with an excruciating 37-word goodbye message, in which they didn't even wish him luck.

I mean, fair. He has kind of screwed them over.

Eddie Howe, Newcastle manager, on the signing of Yoane Wissa:

It really was a crazy summer, wasn't it?

Alexander Isak was not the only player to throw a hissy fit over not getting a move; initially, Yoane Wissa did the exact same thing.

The funny thing is, he went AWOL in order to force a move to Newcastle and become Isak's replacement.

It was a domino effect that affected Liverpool, Newcastle, and Brentford.

Wissa also opted to release a statement about his wishes to leave the Bees, citing broken promises, just like Isak. Although his statement went on forever, taking up pages of Instagram stories.

In the end, he too got what he wanted and is Newcastle's new No. 9, with the Geordies splashing a mammoth £55m on the forward, who had just a year left on his Brentford deal.

Joe Hart, former Man City goalkeeper, on Radio 5 Live:

Oliver Holt, Daily Mail Sport's Chief Writer:

There has been one man on top of all things, Alexander Isak, across what has been a mental summer, and I think you all know who he is.

Yep, our very own Craig Hope.

He was the man who broke the news that Isak wanted to make the switch from the north east to the north west, and ever since, he has been relaying all the critical information during the saga.

It's fair to say that he has won over a lot of fans with his handling of the dramatic transfer, on both sides.

Now, if you want to know the full story of how this saga unfolded, Craig has released a piece on everything that happened behind the scenes at Newcastle.

It's a fascinating read - I highly recommend.

Alexander Isak, Liverpool's record signing, speaking to the club website:

The saga of the summer finally has its conclusion.

39 days after Daily Mail Sport exclusively revealed that Alexander Isak wished to explore a move away from Newcastle, he was unveiled as a Liverpool player.

I'm not sure there is much else to it, is there?

Hopefully, you all detected my sarcasm there because the story of Isak's move will forever be one of the most dramatic tales in transfer window history. My word, it was mental.

The Magpies were desperate to keep their main man, even when he turned into a petulant child and threw all his toys out of the pram, threatening to never play for the club again, and missing all of pre-season. Newcastle's stance seemed to be clear: he was not for sale.

Well, unless Liverpool bid the right fee and they could find two strikers. So, it wasn't really that clear of a stance, let's be honest.

It was a deal that went to the wire, with Isak's Instagram statement doing nothing to help his cause, but in the end, Liverpool got their man for a British record £ 125 million.

It's fair to say, the Reds now have the scariest attack in world football.

Chris Sutton, former Premier League striker, on Radio 5 Live:

Pep Guardiola is currently swimming in goalkeepers.

At the start of the window, it was obviously a position where Manchester City needed to improve, but my word, they went keeper crazy.

They brought in three, while letting Edesron and the mighty Scott Carson go, although the latter is still at the club in a coaching capacity.

These are the four goalies fighting for one position:

I wonder how James Trafford feels right now.

The young goalkeeper thought it was finally his time to shine at Manchester City, returning to the club two years after leaving to gain more experience.

With speculation over Ederson's future, he was chucked in at the deep end in Manchester City's Premier League opener against Wolves, and he didn't just doggy paddle; he swam.

Trafford put in an excellent performance at Molinueux, which in turn led to starts at home to Tottenham and then away at Brighton. The No.1 keeper position seemed like it was his.

Sure, he has made some mistakes - the one leading to Spurs' second was a howler - but he is young and will only improve with minutes on the pitch. He still has what it takes to be a top keeper.

But now, after just a month as first-choice, it seems like his development will be stunted by the arrival of Gianluigi Donnarumma. There is no way that the Italian is coming to Manchester to play second fiddle.

Did Trafford make the right decision returning to City? I'm not so sure.

Hugo Viana, Manchester City's director of football, speaking about Gianluigi Donnarumma:

Gianluigi Donnarumma, new Manchester City goalkeeper, speaking to the club website:

About time, eh?

Manchester City didn't have build suspense by waiting to announce the signing of Gianluigi Donnarumma from PSG.

You would have expected them to have done it last night, given that the window was slammed shut at 7pm. But nope, they left their fans waiting until this morning, which feels cruel.

In the last hour, City finally announced that they have signed the Italian international for £26m, with the goalkeeper signing a five-year deal at the club.

The move allowed Ederson to leave Manchester and have a trophy-laden eight-year stay at City.

The Brazilian has signed for managerless Fenerbahce.

Here are the biggest headlines from deadline day:

Have you all recovered yet?

I'm only just about coming round. My brain was fried last night when I finally walked back through the door of my house, after hours and hours of chasing information and reporting deals.

Don't get me wrong, I love deadline day for its drama, and boy was this one box office, but blooming eck' is it tiring.

I know, boo hoo, poor old Harry - I will stop moaning now.

The dust is now settling on what was a manic three months of deals, and now it's time to take you through all the reaction to what was one of the most memorable windows of this century.
