BBC Sport's Frank Keogh: "Benjamin Stambouli remains on course to join Tottenham from Montpellier and is having a medical today.

"The French club announced on Saturday that a deal had been agreed for the 24-year-old midfielder, but contrary to some reports, the player was not at White Hart Lane for Sunday's 3-0 defeat by Liverpool.

"As it stands, no other major arrivals are expected at Spurs, although former Schalke midfielder Lewis Holtby is set for a return to the Bundesliga, and is expected to join German side Hamburg on loan."

BBC World Service reporter John Bennett: "Done Deal - Ghana World Cup striker Majeed Waris was linked with Leicester City earlier this month but instead of the East Midlands, he's heading to north-eastern Turkey"

"Waris has joined Trabzonspor from Spartak Moscow.

"The 22 year-old is very highly-rated in Ghana and scored 9 goals in 16 appearances in Ligue 1 last season, when he was on loan at Valenciennes."

There was a familiar face at Melwood this morning as former striker Luis Suarez dropped by to see old friends and pass on some gifts. Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard put this picture on Instagram,, external with the caption: "He is back bearing gifts, emotional saying goodbye to the main man this morning, best wishes to a phenomenal player."

Clearly a signed Barcelona shirt is one of Suarez's gifts, but I wonder what else he has brought along? Whatever they are, they might not be particularly exotic. Suarez was spotted in a local shopping centre yesterday.

Come on then... what would you buy for Stevie G and the boys as a leaving present?

WHAT THE FALCAO?? If you can't defend just out score 'em!

You spend all morning waiting for a 'done deal' and two come at once. Everton have confirmed that defender Shane Duffy has joined Blackburn Rovers. Wasn't he in Boyzone?

Burnley have dipped their toes in transfer deadline day waters by bringing in winger George Boyd from Premier League rivals Hull City for an undisclosed fee.

Bobbie Hough: It's almost midday and I've not see one Riquelme to Everton rumour on the live text! Next you'll be telling me you've scrapped plans for a picture of Harry Redknapp being interviewed through a car window…

Jamie C in Leeds: I nominate Arsene Wenger to the ALS challenge (a lovely striker). You've got less than 12 hours, get it done.

Duncan in Milton Keynes: Annoyed with deadline day already. Supporting Arsenal is like standing at a bus stop, waiting for the bus you want - knowing you have the money to pay the fare, but then deciding to walk home instead.

Andy in London: On the back of lucrative sponsorship deals and an increase on the most expensive match tickets in Europe, how can Arsenal justify not buying a world class centre forward?!

Interesting that Henry Winter believes Wayne Rooney might have to drop back into midfield at Manchester United. Who's going to break the news to the skipper that he can't play in his favoured forward role anymore? I'm sure all of the answers are in Louis van Gaal's notepad.

Mirror chief sports writer Oliver Holt:, external Falcao, Di Maria, RVP, Rooney - and a leaky defence. United may not challenge for the title this season but they'll be worth watching.

Daily Telegraph football correspondent Henry Winter:, external Falcao to #mufc, Rooney to midfield, Mata to bench? Falcao truly exciting signing but United still need commanding centre-back & midfielder.

TalkSport commentator Stan Collymore:, external Sanchez, Costa, Falcao, Cesc, Ozil, Di Maria, Balotelli. The Premier League flexing its financial muscle.

£7m for James McArthur? That's a lot of money for a former X Factor winner...

"James McArthur looks set to join Crystal Palace for a club record £7m fee. It's understood Wigan have accepted the offer from the South London club after his move to Leicester City broke down last week.

"Wigan were hoping to keep hold of the Scotland midfielder, but McArthur was keen on a return to the Premier League. The Championship side had agreed to sell the 26-year-old to Leicester City before they chose to sign Esteban Cambiasso instead."

If Radamel Falcao does complete his loan move to Manchester United, how will manager Louis van Gaal incorporate all of his attacking talent? Twitter user craigtoshcfc, external believes he has the answer...

Henry from Witney: That is so unfair. Man U get Rooney, Van Persie and Falcao and we have Sanogo, Podolski and Campbell (the latter two playing out of position). Wenger it's great that you look at their potential, but we need someone for the here and now too.

BBC Sport's Frank Keogh: "As news emerged of Manchester United agreeing a loan deal with Monaco for striker Radamel Falcao, a plane was spotted flying over Old Trafford.

"Rumours swirled around - Could it be the new signing arriving, a welcome message or maybe even some kind of protest?

"It turns out the banner read "Get the fax out of football" - a publicity stunt from a firm promoting digital transactions, rather than the paperwork associated with Transfer Deadline Day.

"Sorry to let the fax get in the way of a good story."

BBC World Service reporter John Bennett: "Remember David N'gog?"

"The former Liverpool, Bolton and Swansea striker is on the verge of signing for Reims, who are currently second from bottom in the French top flight.

"N'gog is a free agent after being released by Swansea at the end of last season. He only made three appearances for the Swans and failed to find the back of the net."

Manchester United fans won't have too long to wait for a goal from the Colombian if he follows the same path from his time in Madrid. Whilst with Atletico his minutes-per-goal record stood at 112.4 minutes per goal. Louis van Gaal's United have already gone 253 minutes since their last goal.

After only scoring two goals all season, Van Gaal will be hoping that Falcao can quickly find goal-scoring form but there is more to the striker than that. He also has a decent record in creating chances for his team mates.

During his time in La Liga, Falcao created a total of 65 chances and had a pass accuracy percentage of 78.4%. Whilst in Ligue 1 with Monaco his pass accuracy increased to a total of 85.2% across the 2013-2014 and 2014-2015 seasons, reports Opta.

League One side Colchester United have "parted company" with manager Joe Dunne. That's two managerial departures in the last hour or so, after League Two Carlisle sacked Graham Kavanagh.

"He is a Colchester United legend and I am grateful for the way he kept our club in League One during these challenging times," chairman Robbie Cowling told the club website.

Manchester United's Mexican striker Javier Hernandez has flown to Spain ahead of a proposed loan move to Real Madrid, with an option for the Spanish club to buy the 26-year-old at the end of the season.

Well, with 12 hours to go until the transfer window closes, it looks like Manchester United are going to be the day's big movers as they try and complete a loan deal for Radamel Falcao, with the option to buy the player for about £43.5m.

That GPS which our contributor David fitted to Shep the Labrador (09:30) looks to be bang on.
