"Now that the window has slammed shut, deal sheets either filed or torn up, there's more than a few players left in limbo by the Premier League's record-breaking summer transfer window. What now for Emi Martinez, who keeps waving goodbye to Aston Villa and yet remains on the books, denied a dream move to Manchester United because Senne Lammens was the cheaper, younger option. A move to Turkey? The World Cup winner is said not to fancy it."
"Manchester City land Donnarumma from PSG as Ederson heads for exit In any case, no bid came from United, who were also the preference for Gianluigi Donnarumma. In both cases wages were the issue for United. The Euro 2020 winner instead headed to Manchester City to learn how to play like Pep Guardiola asks with Ederson heading to Fenerbahce. Most deals tend to have knock-ons, and the collapse of Marc Guehi's move from Crystal Palace to Liverpool had ramifications for Joe Gomez,"
Multiple late transfer collapses left numerous players unexpectedly retained despite strong interest elsewhere. Emiliano Martínez remains at Aston Villa after Manchester United opted for Senne Lammens as the cheaper, younger alternative, with Galatasaray a possible destination if deadlines permit. Gianluigi Donnarumma moved from PSG to Manchester City while Ederson heads to Fenerbahçe, partly because wages blocked United bids. The failed Marc Guehi-to-Liverpool move affected Joe Gomez’s potential transfer to Milan, likely keeping him alongside Virgil van Dijk until January. Ademola Lookman, Harry Wilson, Tyrique George and Raheem Sterling all stayed at their clubs amid awkward or collapsed moves and wage or family constraints.
