The Premier League’s summer transfer window ended last week, with clubs spending £2.4billion before the deadline passed.
Despite this, there are a number of leagues around the world whose windows are still open, allowing clubs to sign players from outside their own league.
This includes the Saudi Pro League, a league which has seen a number of top Premier League signings including Kalidou Koulibaly, Edouard Mendy and Ruben Neves.
Even if the England window is closed, players could leave without their club being able to sign a replacement.
That could pose a problem for Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool as Al-Ittiihad continue their pursuit of Mohamed Salah, with the club ready to offer up to £200million.
Ruben Neves was one of several top rookies to join the Saudi Pro League this summer.
