Arsenal
Whisper it but Arsenal have completed a transfer window more or less to their satisfaction. Nicolas Pépé and Kieran Tierney are signings of the right age and profile who should provide incision from the flanks while David Luiz’s arrival is a curveball but, after Laurent Koscielny’s unsavoury departure, makes sense from a leadership perspective. If Dani Ceballos settles they have a potential star on their hands and Alex Iwobi’s departure means the books have been balanced. Nick Ames
Major ins: Nicolas Pépé Lille £72m; William Saliba St‑Étienne £27m; Kieran Tierney Celtic £25m David Luiz Chelsea £8m; Gabriel Martinelli Ituano £6m; Dani Ceballos Real Madrid loan.
Major outs: Krystian Bielik Derby £7.5m; Laurent Koscielny Bordeaux £4.6m; David Ospina Napoli £3.5m; William Saliba St-Étienne loan; Carl Jenkinson Nottm Forest undiscl; Danny Welbeck Watford, free; Alex Iwobi Everton £35m.
Aston Villa
For the pessimist, Villa’s £146m spend on 13 new signings might summon memories of the trolley dash Fulham embarked upon last year. But Dean Smith has done enough to earn some trust and a more positive slant is that Villa have set themselves up for a return to where they believe they belong, among the division’s established teams. Wesley Moraes, Trezeguet and Jota should enliven their attack while Douglas Luiz looks a very smart addition. NA
Major ins: Tyrone Mings Bournemouth, £26.5m; Wesley Moraes Club Brugge, £22m; Douglas Luiz Manchester City, £15m; Matt Targett Southampton, £14m; Ezri Konsa Brentford, £12m; Marvelous Nakamba Club Brugge, £11m; Björn Engels Reims, £9m; Trezeguet Kasimpasa, £8.8m; Tom Heaton Burnley, £8m; Anwar El Ghazi Lille, £8m; Frédéric Guilbert Caen, £5m; Jota Birmingham, £4m; Kortney Hause Wolves, £3m.
Major outs: Glenn Whelan released; Ritchie De Laet released; Alan Hutton released; Mile Jedinak released; Micah Richards released.
Bournemouth
It has been a satisfying summer for Bournemouth, with Eddie Howe improving his squad with the arrivals of Philip Billing and Harry Wilson, on a season’s loan, the most eye-catching. But tying down Callum Wilson to a four-year contract was arguably Bournemouth’s best piece of business, with Nathan Ake and Ryan Fraser also sticking around. Injuries to David Brooks, Lloyd Kelly and Dan Gosling have dampened enthusiasm but they look ready to build on last season’s 14th place. Ben Fisher
Major ins: Philip Billing Huddersfield, £15m; Lloyd Kelly Bristol City, £13m; Arnaut Danjuma Club Brugge, £13m; Jack Stacey Luton, £4m; Harry Wilson Liverpool, loan.
Major outs: Tyrone Mings Aston Villa, £26.5m; Lys Mousset Sheffield United, £10m; Harry Arter Fulham, loan.
Brighton & Hove Albion
Graham Potter’s task at Brighton has been considerably eased by a flurry of signings across the past week. The arrival of Neal Maupay, Aaron Mooy and Adam Webster from Brentford, Huddersfield and Bristol City respectively, strengthens the spine of a team who had gone stale under Chris Hughton. Coupled with Leandro Trossard, who has shown glimpses of class in pre-season, Potter has plenty of ammunition, including Alireza Jahanbakhsh and Jürgen Locadia, who have so far underwhelmed on the south coast.

Burnley
Losing Tom Heaton for £8m to Aston Villa was a blow for Sean Dyche, even with the England goalkeeper in the final year of his contract at Turf Moor, but if the aim of any transfer window is to finish with a stronger squad then Burnley can be satisfied. The deadline day arrival of Danny Drinkwater from Chelsea brought yet more Premier League experience following Jay Rodriguez’s return to his boyhood club and the signing of Erik Pieters from Stoke. A solid summer. Andy Hunter
Major ins: Jay Rodriguez West Brom, £10m; Bailey Peacock-Farrell Leeds, £3m; Erik Pieters Stoke, £1.5m; Joel Senior Curzon Ashton, undiscl.;Ryan Cooney Bury, loan; Danny Drinkwater Chelsea, loan; Adam Phillips free.
Major outs: Tom Heaton Aston Villa, £8m; Peter Crouch released; Stephen Ward released; Anders Lindegaard released.
Chelsea
While Mateo Kovacic and Christian Pulisic arrived early, Chelsea had flown under the radar until the late drama of David Luiz’s £8m move to Arsenal. The club’s transfer embargo has forced Frank Lampard to turn to the academy to refresh his squad – he has not been able to spend the funds generated by Eden Hazard’s move to Real Madrid – and the focus has been on outgoings, with Danny Drinkwater loaned to Burnley on deadline day. Davide Zappacosta and Tiémoué Bakayoko could also depart before the European transfer windows shut later this month. Jacob Steinberg
Major ins: Mateo Kovacic Real Madrid, £40.2m; Christian Pulisic Borussia Dortmund, £58m.
Major outs: Eden Hazard Real Madrid, £88.5m; Ola Aina Torino, £8.8m; David Luiz Arsenal, £8m;Tomas Kalas Bristol City, £8m; Kasey Palmer Bristol City, £3.5m; Ethan Ampadu RB Leipzig, loan; Lewis Baker Fortuna Düsseldorf, loan Jake Clarke-Salter Birmingham, loan; Danny Drinkwater Burnley, loan; Gary Cahill released.
Crystal Palace
With only £6m spent on players after the £45m sale of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, the news that Wilfried Zaha is staying at Selhurst Park was crucial for Palace’s chances this season. But with Zaha having made no secret of his desire to move on, reintegrating the forward back into the squad could be tricky for Roy Hodgson but Palace will hope Zaha can return to the form that helped them survive relegation with ease last season. The pressure is on Christian Benteke to deliver goals in the last year of his contract. Ed Aarons
Ins: Jordan Ayew Swansea, £3m; James McCarthy Everton, £3m; Gary Cahill Chelsea, free; Victor Camarasa Real Betis, loan;Stephen Henderson free.
Outs: Aaron Wan-Bissaka Manchester United, £45m; Julian Speroni released; Bakary Sako released; Jason Puncheon released; Alexander Sørloth Trabzonspor, loan; Pape Souaré released.
Everton
A productive, well-planned window came to something of a haphazard end with attention switched late to Alex Iwobi after the thwarted pursuit of Wilfried Zaha and the priority of a new central defender going unresolved. Other key areas were addressed by signing players with title-winning experience in Spain, Italy and England. The damaging departure of Idrissa Gueye was covered swiftly and over 20 players were removed off a previously soaring wage bill. AH
Major ins: Moise Kean Juventus, £29m; Jean-Philippe Gbamin Mainz, £22.5m; André Gomes Barcelona, £22m; Fabian Delph Man City, £8.5m; Djibril Sidibé Monaco, loan; Alex Iwobi Arsenal, £35m.
Major outs: Idrissa Gueye PSG, £29m; Ademola Lookman RB Leipzig, £22.5m; Nikola Vlasic CSKA Moscow, £12m; James McCarthy Crystal Palace, £3m; Ashley Williams released; Jonjoe Kenny Schalke, loan; Sandro Ramírez Real Valladolid, loan. Mo Besic Sheffield Utd, loan.
