Transfer deadline day was as busy as it gets for a handful of Europe's most notable teams as they finalized deals for players they hope will improve their fortunes for the rest of the season. AC Milan were arguably the most active team in the final hours of the transfer window,

Aston Villa and Chelsea are believed to have submitted a deal sheet in time to complete Axel Disasi's loan move to Villa Park, according to journalist Matt Law. The 11pm transfer deadline has now expired and despite reports claiming Disasi would be heading to Aston Villa late on Monday, no confirmation of a deal has been made by either club.

Aston Villa have agreed a loan deal until the end of the season with Manchester United for Marcus Rashford. Villa will cover a minimum of three-quarters of the England forward’s wages for the duration of his stay and up to 90 per cent depending on performance-based bonuses.
