    As sure as night follows day, rumours about Gareth Bale returning to Tottenham roll round every transfer window.

    It hasn't happened before and it won't be happening today.

    Bale is set to remain at Real Madrid for the rest of the season.

    Simon: Have you heard of a manager pulling the plug on deadline day because when he met the player he didn't like him?

    Yes, oh yeah, it has happened to me. But I can’t tell you his name, as he’s now a manager! This was a long time ago, but this was when players used to come and meet a manager in a suit and tie and this person turned up looking like a tramp and I didn’t like his attitude or the way he was talking and I was just like, “No he’s not for me, I don’t fancy him.” But he turned out be a very good player, so I made a ricket.

  3. DONE DEAL - Rangers sign Hagipublished at 10:09 Greenwich Mean Time 31 January 2020

    Romania midfielder Ianis Hagi, son of Barcelona and Real Madrid great Gheorghe, has become Rangers' first January signing on a six-month loan from Genk.

    The 21-year-old has played 24 times for Genk, who are sixth in the Belgian top flight.

    Hagi, born in Turkey, signed for Genk from Romanian top-flight outfit Viitorul Constanta for £4m last summer.

    The attacking midfielder, capped 10 times for his country, had returned to Romania to help Viitorul finish third last season after two years with Fiorentina during which he made two appearances for the Italian side.

    Abdul: What’s your worst ever transfer?

    Difficult, we’ve all had bad ones! I signed Marco Boogers at West Ham. Actually he wasn’t a bad player, he wasn’t expensive and we took a gamble on him. But he got sent off at Old Trafford for taking out Gary Neville. That wasn’t my instruction to do that. Then he disappeared. Someone told me he was living in a caravan! We ended up selling him to someone in Holland.

  5. Solskjaer not expecting any signings todaypublished at 10:03 Greenwich Mean Time 31 January 2020

    Simon Stone
    BBC Sport

    Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has said he 'doesn't think' his club will sign any players before the transfer deadline closes later today.

    Solskjaer wanted a striker in addition to midfielder Bruno Fernandes, who joined United for £47m on Thursday.

    But, despite Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe confirming United's interest in Norway striker Josh King earlier this morning, Solskjaer is pessimistic about further signings.

    "I don't think we will do any more business," said the United boss.

    "January has always been difficult. It is not something you just do like that. I am happy with the ones I have here."

    Solskjaer did previously say Ashley Young and Marcos Rojo would not be leaving Old Trafford this month but both subsequently did.

    Adrian: Looking back, is there one player you were on the verge of signing but missed out on, that you regret never managing?

    Eden Hazard. Joe Cole rang me when he was at Lille and said, “Harry, I’m playing with the best player I’ve ever played with”, and I said, “Woah, that’s some statement Joe, you’ve played with some absolute greats.” So I went over three times, but I didn’t need to see him three times, as once was enough to see how good he was. I went three times, as I wanted to meet him and tell him how keen we were to bring him to Spurs, but unfortunately the deal never got done.

    Richard Neldet: Who was your best deadline-day signing?

    Difficult question. But Rafa Van der Vaart was a great signing. We were looking to loan Rafa because the fee was high but then at the last minute Daniel Levy came to me and said the club need money so we can get him cheaply, and would I be interested in signing him permanently and I said “Yeah, of course I would”, so that was that, we signed him.

  9. Giroud to Tottenham 'possible'published at 09:51 Greenwich Mean Time 31 January 2020

    Olivier Giroud to Tottenham is a possibility but is dependent on Chelsea finding a replacement.

    Frank Lampard will block the France forward leaving Stamford Bridge if Chelsea are unable to sign anybody today.

    Benjamin Park: How quickly can last-minute deals get done?

    They can get done very quickly. You don’t even have to be with the player. As long as they have the right paperwork to sign to be registered. You’re relying on your secretary. Managers aren’t involved with the paperwork.

    Whoops sorry, this is a little late. I'd given the floor to Harry Redknapp!

    Anyway, here is the answer to the guess the deadline-day signing teaser.

    It is Alvaro Arbeloa, who signed for Liverpool on this day way back in 2007. The clue was in the first two words of my entry at 09:11 GMT.

    Plenty of you got this one right, so well done!

    Another to come just after 10:00 GMT.

    'Listen Harry, do you want to loan Aaron Lennon?'

    Former manager at various clubs

    Anonymous: What time do you get to the training ground on transfer deadline day and what time do you leave?

    Well you leave when the window closes and you get in at about 7am. Sometimes though you just shut up shop and go home. But I’ve had plenty of late requests. I remember when I was at QPR and Daniel Levey rings me and says, “Listen do you want to loan Aaron Lennon?” and I was like,”Yeah course I would, but how we going to get hold of him now, it’s half past nine at night?!” We tried, but we couldn’t get hold of him, which was a great shame.

    Anonymous: What happened with that failed famous Peter Odemwingie transfer?

    Time was dragging on and we couldn’t quite get a deal done with West Brom, but they wanted to get rid of him, so we said you better travel down, as we’re going to run out of time, so if we agree a fee, we’ll then be able to get it done. But he made a big mistake though Peter. Instead of going to the hotel that we’d booked him into round the corner, he came to the football ground. West Brom saw it on TV and thought we were taking a liberty and so pulled the plug! I feel sorry for him, but he was bang to rights.

    When you think of transfer deadline day, who do you think of?

    Well Mr Transfer Deadline Day himself, Harry Redknapp, of course.

    We asked for your questions, and you inundated us and didn’t disappoint.

    So we’ve picked a selection and obviously there was only one place we could start…

    Mark: Did you realise your car window interviews would become such a staple of deadline day?

    Ha, no I never did. I just find it hard not to be nice to people. There was always someone from Sky TV there and they have a job to do, so if I can do them a favour, I will do. Usually they’d be stood outside for hours. It might have been raining, snowing, freezing cold, and they’d carry on standing there. Sometimes I’d take them a cup of tea, or invite them in for a sandwich in the canteen.

  16. Bale back to Spurs is on?published at 09:24 Greenwich Mean Time 31 January 2020

    Some interesting transfer news via The Times - Tottenham believe they have made a breakthrough in their bid to bring Gareth Bale back to the club.

    The finer details of a deal have not yet been agreed - not least how they frame a contract when Bale has been earning a £500,000 a week at the Santiago Bernabeu - but The Times believes there is growing confidence among the Spurs hierarchy that they can sign the Welsh superstar today.

    Bournemouth v Aston Villa (Sat, 15:00 GMT)

    Bournemouth

    More from the Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe on Joshua King:

    "We have missed him since he has been out injured, so speaking as manager I would be very reluctant to let him leave. With a day to go in the window it's very difficult to find a replacement.

    "It's going to be [a decision] between the chief executive and owner. I love Josh as a player and person. I know what Manchester United means to him with his history with the club, so I understand his position."

    Right here is the Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe.

    Very little chat about a six-pointer with Aston Villa on Saturday but plenty on potential incoming players and Joshua King's future:

    "We're looking as always. We have never been in the market for permanent deals, we've been looking at loans and what we can do. It's difficult to find players who can make a difference on loan, so I don't imagine too much happening today, but you can never say never."

    On Joshua King being linked to Manchester United: "I'm not going to deny anything you have read but I don't want to talk about it too much. He is much valued and loved by us.

    "He is a massive part of our team, he brings that unique pace and strength, coupled with technical ability and an eye for goal."

    Manchester United made the biggest signing of the transfer window when they signed Bruno Fernandes from Sporting Lisbon for £47million yesterday.

    Fernandes has been given the number 18 shirt previously worn by Paul Scholes and, latterly, Ashley Young.

    Ole Gunnar Solskjaer should be talking about Fernandes soon and, possibly, Josh King, who United have spoken to Bournemouth about.
