Morning, everyone. I'm here on my second snow day monitoring the Guardian blog for its transfer deadline day news. There will also be a special episode of the Sky Sports News at 2pm and then a Transfer Deadline Day wrap up on NBC Sports at 5pm.
The big rumor mill surrounds PSG today, who hope to swoop in for both Chelsea star Willian and Arsenal's unsettled Mesut Ozil.
In United news, a sad farewell to the original Hair Bear. Yes, Maroune Fellani is off to China. But you can console yourselves that Kung Fu Panda has signed another contract.
A few early moves today:
Miguel Almidón has arrived at Newcastle from MLS side Atlanta United.
Arsenal have picked up Spanish defensive middle Denis Suarez on loan from Barca.
At the 5pm GMT hour, it's all very quiet in the transfer market. That suits me to a tee. I'm fine with the Leeds squad as it stands.
Hold the presses - it looks as if we're about to pounce on Swansea winger Daniel James. Don't know him at all.
Breaking news! Crouchie's having his nachos today. Yes, the beanpole striker is back in the Premiership after having signed for Burnley. That means that Sean Dyche can now employ a triple tower threat with Crouchie alongside Sam Vokes and (sigh) Chris Wood.
Scratch that - Sam Vokes has been snagged by Stoke City as a replacement for Crouchie.
Barcelona have had a busy month, with Frenkie De Jong signing on from July and both Jeison Murillo and Kevin-Prince Boateng arriving on loan. Now they’ve agreed a €12m deal for the Atletico Mineiro full back Emerson, who will join the Catalan club in the summer.
The moves are still trickling in. Leicester have signed Belgian midfielder Youri Thielemans from Monaco, while they've let Andy King go.
Poor Vincent Janssen. The Spurs striker has been linked with a loan move to various clubs, including Real Betis and Schalke but right now, there is no longer anything on the table for him.
The biggest money moves this January window remain:
Christian Pulisic from Dortmund to Chelski - £58 million
Leandro Paredes from Zenit to PSG - £34.7 million
Lucas Paqueta from Flamengo to Milan - £31.4 million
Kryzsztof Piatek from Genoa to Milan - £30.9 million
Paco Alcocer from Barca to Dortmund - £22.7 million
Miguel Almiron from Atlanta United to Newcastle - £21 million
That's it for me today. Cheerio!
