Welcome to football.london's Chelsea post-transfer deadline day live blog.

With the summer transfer window officially coming to an end on Tuesday night, Chelsea fans can catch their breath again. The Blues banked a whopping £460m over the course of the summer, with deadline day contributing heavily to that figure.

The biggest move of the day was the blockbuster departure of Enzo Fernandez to Manchester City in a Premier League record deal worth £125m. Marc Guiu also left for RB Leipzig, while Chelsea duo Tosin Adarabioyo and Mykhailo Mudryk joined rivals Tottenham permanently and on loan, respectively, in a double deal across the capital.

Shim Mheuka sealed his loan move to Celtic, and Dario Essugo and Deivid Washington signed for Strasbourg. But it was not all just outgoings, with the west Londoners announcing their pre-agreement to sign Honest Ahanor from Atalanta next summer in a deal worth £40m.

Chelsea also moved to replace Fernandez but fell short in bringing in Lamine Camara, whose late move was blocked by Monaco despite the Blues agreeing a £47m deal and personal terms with the player. Alex Scott of Bournemouth then emerged as a late option but the Englishman was not for sale.
