    EVERY Premier League transfer in January window as deadline looms

    The Premier League’s January transfer window is almost complete, with clubs racing to finish their dealings before the window slams shut at 11pm local time (GMT) on February 1.

    That’s 10am on Saturday morning AEDT.

    Ange Postecoglou’s has landed two big targets at Tottenham this window, signing former Chelsea flop Timo Werner from RB Leipzig on a loan move with an option to buy at the end of the season as well as 21-year-old centre-back Radu Dragusin.

    Meanwhile, Manchester City offloaded Kalvin Phillips to West Ham on loan, while Donny van de Beek left Manchester United for Eintracht Frankfurt on loan and teammate Jadon Sancho returned to Borussia Dortmund on loan.

    While they are the biggest deals so far, here’s the list of every move from each club this window!

    This story will continue to be updated until the window closes 10am Saturday AEDT.

    Fiery star gets his wish as PL side ‘reluctantly’ confirms $99m Saudi switch: Done Deals

    Aleksandar Mitrovic joined the Premier League exodus to Saudi Arabia by leaving Fulham for a club record fee to join Al Hilal on Saturday.

    The Premier League club confirmed the Serbian’s departure following Saturday’s 3-0 Premier home defeat against Brentford.

    Al Hilal are reported to have negotiated a £50 million ($AUD99 million deal for the 28-year-old.

    “The club can confirm that Aleksandar Mitrovic has this evening left to join Al Hilal in the Saudi Pro League for a club record transfer fee,” Fulham said in a statement.

    “The club had reluctantly accepted a revised offer as the player had consistently made his desire to leave known.”

    Mitrovic pushed for a move in order to join the growing list of players swapping Europe for a lucrative switch to the Gulf state.

    He will be Al Hilal’s latest high-profile signing after their swoops for Neymar, Kalidou Koulibaly, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Ruben Neves and Malcom.

    Mitrovic scored 14 times for Fulham last season as he finally made his mark in the Premier League.

    Since joining Fulham in 2018, Mitrovic had played an important role in Fulham’s three separate promotions from the Championship.

    In the 2021-22 campaign he netted a Championship record of 43 goals.

    ‘Incredible’ $322m fairytale story complete as Luton Town’s 31-year wait ends after penalty shootout

    Luton completed a fairytale journey to the Premier League after beating Coventry on penalties in the Championship playoff final at Wembley.

    The Hatters secured a fourth promotion in 10 seasons 6-5 in the shootout after the sides were tied at 1-1 after 120 minutes.

    Financial experts estimate promotion to world football’s most watched league to be worth around £170 million ($A322 million) for a club that have been through turmoil since they last played in the top flight 31 years ago.

    Luton are the first club to go from the fifth tier to the top flight in the Premier League era.

    Midfielder Pelly Ruddock Mpanzu has been on that whole journey and becomes the first player to go from the National League to Premier League with the same club.

    “I feel like I completed football,” said Mpanzu.

    “It’s been a journey. It’s going to be a party all summer.”

    Some of Luton’s cash windfall will go to upgrading the club’s stadium, Kenilworth Road, which with a capacity just over 10,000 and set among rows of terraced houses, will be hosting the likes of Manchester United and Liverpool next season.

    Luton had to recover from an early shock when captain Tom Lockyer collapsed on the field.

    The Welsh centre-back was stretchered off and taken to hospital, where the club confirmed he was responsive and able to talk to his family.

    “I feel incredible, but the only thing I’m thinking about now is Tom Lockyer,” said Luton manager Rob Edwards.

    Lockyer had played his part when Luton had the ball in the net after just five minutes when Gabriel Osho was flagged offside as he forced the ball in from close range.

    But a bright start from Edwards’ men was rewarded on 23 minutes when Elijah Adebayo’s good work down the left teed up Jordan Clark to smash home at the near post.

    Adebayo had a second Luton goal ruled out before half-time for handball. Coventry looked like a side that had stage fright in front of 85,000 people in the first-half.

    But Mark Robins’ side have grown used to thriving in adversity. In their 22 years away from the top flight, Coventry have been forced out of their home city to Northampton and Birmingham due to financial issues in leasing their stadium.

    Even when restored to Coventry, they began the season at the foot of the Championship table after being unable to host home games due to the state of their pitch which had been used for rugby at the Commonwealth Games.

    Coventry were much improved after the break and got their reward 24 minutes from time when Viktor Gyokeres teed up Gustavo Hamer to fire into the far corner.

    The Sky Blues nearly turned the tie around fully within minutes when Matt Godden blazed a big chance over.

    Tired legs and tension took over in extra-time, but Coventry had a massive let off four minutes from time.

    Joe Taylor slotted home after charging down Jonathan Panzo’s clearance, but the goal was ruled out as the ball struck the Luton man’s hand.

    All of the first 11 penalties were then scored as the takers showed incredible poise under the most extreme pressure.

    But when Fankaty Dabo’s effort sailed over the bar, Luton’s dreams came true.

    Here are some of the best photos from Luton Town’s historic win and celebrations!
