Newcastle have been the biggest spenders anywhere in England over the past month in their first transfer window under the ownership of the Saudi sovereign wealth fund.
Aston Villa left-back Matt Targett has joined Kieran Trippier, Chris Wood and Bruno Guimaraes at St. James’ Park, while the Magpies are also aiming to sign Brighton defender Dan Burn by the end of the day.
Burnley have replaced Wood with Dutch international forward Wout Weghorst, who has signed from VfL Wolfsburg.
Tottenham boss Antonio Conte has made clear his demand for fresh faces in recent weeks and finally got his wish with the double signings of Swedish international forward Dejan Kulusevski and Uruguayan midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur from Juventus.
Arsenal are unlikely to add to a threadbare forward line but Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang looks set to remain at the club after negotiations over a loan move to Barcelona stalled.
Aubameyang has been shut out by manager Mikel Arteta in recent weeks for a breach of discipline and has not travelled to Dubai for a warm-weather training camp.
Premier League leaders Manchester City have signed forward Julian Alvarez for a reported £14 million, but the Argentine will remain with River Plate on loan until at least July.
The 22-year-old has scored 36 goals in 96 games for River and has five Argentina caps to his name.
