The final day of the men’s transfer window is here , but there is still time for some rumourmongering, before a Supermarket Sweep-style trolley dash for 11th hour signings.
Going wild in the aisles? Manchester United’s interest in a new left-back has been known all summer long, yet here they stand without one on the final day of the window. While many are claiming United’s business could be done, RB Leipzig’s David Raum , Fulham stalwart Antonee Robinson and Fenerbahce’s English left-back Archie Brown have all been mentioned as possible last-minute acquisitions.

What happened
The Guardian's daily transfer rumours column highlights several Premier League storylines. Eli Junior Kroupi, a young forward, has attracted attention from both Manchester United and Liverpool as they look to bolster their attacking options. Separately, veteran striker Jamie Vardy has been linked with a surprise move to newly-promoted Wrexham, who would represent a dramatic shift for the former Leicester City forward. The piece is part of a regular roundup and contains unconfirmed reports rather than completed deals.
Chance analysis
Roundup transfer columns rarely move the needle on their own, but the Kroupi links are worth watching. A forward reportedly on the radar of both Manchester United and Liverpool suggests a genuine battle for a player who appears to be emerging as one of the more interesting young attacking prospects in the market. The Vardy-to-Wrexham rumour, if it gains traction, would be a marquee story driven by Wrexham's Hollywood-backed rise and Vardy's status as a free agent after leaving Leicester.
If confirmed, Kroupi would add attacking depth at United or Liverpool while a Vardy move to Wrexham would be a high-profile free transfer with limited on-pitch upside.
