The summer transfer window is closed for the top leagues in Europe! After a summer full of international football, countless clubs waited until the last minute to pull off their transfers. See all the major deals here and check out how we graded the biggest signings. But just because the window is shut until January, that doesn't mean the rumours won't keep coming.
TOP STORY: Salah wants new £500,000-a-week contract
The Sunday Mirror reports that Mohamed Salah is looking for a bumper pay rise, putting him on £500,000-a-week, if he is to put pen to paper on a new deal with Liverpool.
The 29-year-old has two years remaining on his current deal, which is worth £200,000-a-week, and after 99 Premier League goals, the Egypt international wants terms that better reflect his contribution on the pitch.
Jurgen Klopp's side have handed out a number of contract extensions over the summer, after Ibrahima Konate turned out to be the club's only signing of the transfer window, but the terms Salah is reported to want would fall outside of the club's wage structure.
Salah is the second highest-earner along with Thiago Alcantara, but behind Virgil van Dijk who earns £220,000-a-week. And with the forward proving to be an indispensable star since arriving at Anfield in 2017, the negotiations could get tough with the Reds knowing they won't want Salah to move into the last year of his deal.

11.00 BST: Marca reports that the deal to take Eduardo Camavinga to Real Madrid from Stade Rennes was not a last-minute deadline-day arrangement, and Los Blancos had been tracking the midfielder for three years.
Camavinga, 18, moved to the Bernabeu on Tuesday in a deal worth up to €40m.
Marca says that Real Madrid first spotted Camavinga playing in a youth tournament for Rennes in 2018 and had monitored his progress ever since.
10.14 BST: Football Insider reports that defender Cameron Carter-Vickers turned down a move to Torino on deadline day in favour of joining Celtic.
Carter-Vickers, 23, had been linked with a move away from Tottenham throughout the summer, but it looked like he would stay as the hours ticked down on the window.
The report states that Spurs eventually accepted loan offers from Serie A side Torino and Celtic, but Carter-Vickers decided to move to Scotland after former Spurs goalkeeper Joe Hart, now at Parkhead, persuaded him to it would be the right choice.
09.30 BST: The Star on Sunday reports that Aston Villa plan to make a move for United States star Weston McKennie when the transfer window reopens in January.
McKennie, 23, spent last season on loan at Juventus from Schalke before it automatically turned into a permanent move in the summer. But the Serie A club made the midfielder available for transfer last month, without any club showing firm interest. But the report states that Villa are now preparing to bring him to the Premier League.
PAPER GOSSIP
- Inter Milan are preparing for life without Samir Handanovic, with the Italian Serie A 2020-21 champions eyeing a move for Andre Onana. Calciomercato writes that the Ajax goalkeeper has been identified as a replacement on a free transfer, with the 25-year-old's contract set to expire next summer. The Cameroon international will return to action in November after serving a suspension for doping.
- Rafinha has been linked with a number of clubs over the summer but now looks set to stay with Paris Saint-Germain, according to Fabrizio Romano. The Italian journalist says that there is no contact between Fenerbahce and the Brazilian's representatives, with the 28-year-old remaining in Ligue 1 until January.
- Steven N'zonzi's next move has been decided with the former Premier League midfielder arriving in Doha to sign with Al-Raheeb. That's according to Qatari outlet Stad Doha, which exclusively reported the news on Saturday. The France international star spent last season with Rennes where he made 34 league appearances.
- Phil Foden will extend his stay at Manchester City with new terms that see his wages quadrupled, according to the Daily Star. The report claims that the 21-year-old will be offered a six-year contract with wages of £150,000-a-week. The new deal comes as a reward after Foden's impressive performances since making his debut in 2017 with consistent form that saw him named as the Premier League's young player of the year last season.
- Fernando Llorente has been offered to Inter as an alternative to Eden Dzeko, writes Calciomercato. The 36-year-old is currently a free agent after a two-year spell in Serie A saw the former Juventus star score four times in spells with Napoli and Udinese. It is reported that the forward is keen to stay in Serie A to continue his career where he can still add value in the right system.
