The transfer window is well in it's final week and it's building up to be a dramatic few days in football. There have already been some mega deals this summer, but the Premier League transfer record is threatening to be broken again.
Liverpool's transfer pursuit of Paris Saint-Germain ace Bradley Barcola could be the record breaker, as could Arsenal's pursuit of wantaway Atletico Madrid striker Julian Alvarez. Manchester United are also still knee deep in the market, looking for more expensive additions to a squad which was well beaten by Hull City.
Key Events
Liverpool are holding additional talks with Paris Saint-Germain regarding a deal for Bradley Barcola.
The Frenchman is valued at around £145million, which would surpass the current Premier League transfer record of £125m, set by Liverpool's purchase of Alexander Isak.
It's now understood by Sky Sports that recent talks regarding a transfer have been positive and there is optimism Liverpool can sign him before the transfer deadline.

Arsenal have agreed to sell Gabriel Martinelli to Saudi Arabian side Al Hilal. The Brazilian was left out of the Gunners' squad for the Community Shield triumph over Manchester City and the Premier League win over Coventry City.
It's now understood by French outlet Foot Mercato that Mikel Arteta's side have reached an agreement with Al Hilal. The Brazilian is expected to leave for around £50m, which would be Arsenal's highest ever transfer sale after the £35m departure of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain to Liverpool nearly a decade ago.
