Who will get their deals over the line before the 11pm deadline on Monday 3 February?. The January transfer window is into its final week, with time running out for Premier League clubs to get deals over the line. The Premier League deadline is Monday 3 February, at 11pm GMT, with Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal all looking to complete business.

The Gunners want a striker and Mikel Arteta is open to new recruits to help the club catch Liverpool in the title race, while Chelsea are hoping to be opportunistic in the market. And how about Tottenham Hotspur? Ange Postecoglou made it crystal clear that injury-hit Spurs needed “help” this month but so far only goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky has joined the club, who sit 15th in the table.

Manchester City have been the busiest club so far and Pep Guardiola kick-started his rebuild at the Etihad with the signings of Omar Marmoush, Abdukodir Khusanov and Vitor Reis, at the cost of some £122m. But how about everyone else? Here’s five transfers that could still happen before Monday’s 11pm deadline.

If Marcus Rashford thought he could get back into Manchester United’s team under Ruben Amorim, his new manager clearly thinks otherwise. Rashford’s future at United appears to be over after Amorim states that he would prefer to select his 63-year-old goalkeeping coach Jorge Vital on the bench than Rashford.

The former England international desperately needs a move to revitalise his career, and it’s getting to the point where the 27-year-old should not be ruling out any options. AC Milan, Juventus, Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund have all been linked at points this month, but interest has cooled with Rashford’s salary proving to be a stumbling block in talks - even if he is only up for a loan.
