That's it from us today. Thanks for following along. It's been a relatively quiet day on the transfer front, but we did get Michy Batshuayi's loan move to Besiktas.
That's something, right?
Thanks for sending in your suggestions for best single transfer windows and dream five-a-side teams. Really enjoyed reading those.
Enjoy the rest of your day. My increasingly restless Labrador has been looking at me for the best part of an hour with a 'when are we going out?' expression on her face, so I better look for my shoes!

Lukaku's Premier League record as it stands:
Appearances: 252
Goals: 113
Assists: 35
Not too shabby, and he struck 47 times for Inter over two Serie A campaigns, so he returns to the Blues full of confidence.
Do you think the Belgian will win this season's Premier League golden boot?

Arsenal 'still building'
Lukaku's thoughts about the current Arsenal team compared to the Gunners sides he's faced in the past: "It's difficult to compare, I think they are a team that's building.
"At the end of the day, I just focus on my team and the players I have. It's going to be a tough game at the weekend, a London derby, but we are preparing ourselves for a battle because they didn't have the best start, and we want to keep building after our good result."
On being a leader: "Yeah, I think Azpi [Cesar Azpilicueta] is the captain. He's been here for many years and he's a great captain.
"When I was in quarantine, he was already messaging me about where to find houses and stuff. It's like I was never gone. The relationship is still intact and with the rest of the boys.
"This dressing room has a lot of personality, which is what I like."

'Time for my performances to do the talking'
Lukaku on what he dreams of achieving at Chelsea: "Right now, the dream is reality so I have to prove on the pitch.
"Now that I'm here, it's time to get to work and let my performances do the talking."
On being a possible Ballon d'Or contender: "At the end of the day, PSG have a great team. The season has just started so let us work hard and build on what we have, but we have to take it one game at a time."
On building a connection with his new Chelsea team-mates: "A lot is about communication. I'll always ask my teammates questions, what they want and expect.
"I think the next couple of weeks is important to communicate with the players around me. I don't think I have to adapt too much because with Belgium, we play in a similar system.”
Gunners closing in on Odegaard signing
Alex Howell
BBC Sport
Arsenal are working on a deal to sign Real Madrid midfielder Martin Odegaard on a permanent transfer for a fee in the region of £30m.
There is still work to be done to get the deal completed for the 22-year-old, who spent the second half of last season on loan at the Emirates.
Odegaard, who joined Real Madrid in 2015, has only made eight league appearances for the Spanish side and has also spent time on loan at Heerenveen, Vitesse and Real Sociedad before the spell with Arsenal.
But standby Arsenal fans, a bit of transfer news is on the way...
'I've learned much more about myself'
Lukaku on the improvements he's made as a player and person since leaving Manchester United in 2019: "Maturity, maturity has been important. I think I've learned much more about myself, setting higher standards.
"As a player, it's about becoming more complete. In Italy, the game is different, there are tighter spaces, it's more technical and tactical, which helped me a lot.
"The English game is different but for me it's not something new. Whatever plan the coach has, I can adapt myself and help the team."
Lukaku to take No.9 shirt
Lukaku has also confirmed that he will be wearing the No.9 shirt for Chelsea.
He said: "Can I say it? Yes, I have the No.9. I am happy and fortunate to be in this situation."
Romelu Lukaku on advice from Didier Drogba: "He kept it really simple, to be honest. He was really happy with the improvements I've made in the last couple of seasons but said there is always work to be done.
"I think that's the right mindset. I really want to achieve the maximum as a football player, it's all about improving week in, week out.
"I think the last two years have been great for myself, both at club and international level. Now I get the chance to join a team that's very hungry and ambitious and I can't wait to add something new to their playing style."
Asked if he is fit to start Sunday's Premier League encounter with Arsenal, Lukaku said: "Yeah, I've done a full pre-season. For now, I just want to get my team-mates better, and then at the end of the day I'm available for the manager if he wants to play me."
Improving Chelsea 'fit with my ambitions' - Lukaku
Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku on joining the Champions League holders: "It's a good feeling. The guys are hungry, they want to keep winning, I can see from the last couple of training sessions that there is a good intensity.
"The coach is very clear with his ideas, everybody wants to work hard and keep improving. Those things really fit with my ambitions."
Lukaku coming up
Right, Lukaku is speaking to the media now after taking part in Chelsea's open training session at Stamford Bridge.
