It's been a huge transfer window this summer, with the world's biggest superstars switching clubs and sending football lovers into total meltdown. In fact, it looks like a fantasy come true as many still find it difficult to believe what has happened.
Lionel Messi's switch to Paris Saint-Germain and Cristiano Ronaldo's Manchester United return have headlined the transfer window so far but the likes of Romelu Lukaku, Jadon Sancho, Jack Grealish and Raphael Varane have also enjoyed a fair share of attention following their respective transfers.
The transfer window will slam shut very soon. Yet, European heavyweights are still working tirelessly to strengthen certain areas of their squad before it's finally over. That means we can still witness a couple of major transfers on deadline day.
With just over 24 hours left, we we've come up with a prediction of five major transfers that could happen before the deadline. They are as follows.
#5 Ilaix Moriba | Barcelona to RB Leipzig
Barcelona have put Ilaix Moriba up for sale after failing to reach an agreement with the young midfielder over a new contract due to his wage demands. Bundesliga outfit RB Leipzig have shown interest in signing the player and it looks like he could make a last-gasp switch to the Red Bull Arena before the transfer window shuts.
According to reports, the German outfit have agreed to pay Barca's €20 million asking price plus several bonuses and Moriba will likely sign a five-year deal at the club. An announcement is expected to be made in the coming hours.
#4 Houssem Aouar | Lyon to Arsenal
Arsenal have been linked with Olympique Lyonnais midfielder Houssem Aouar throughout the summer - with Mikel Arteta looking to shake things up in midfield - and it seems they could finally reach a breakthrough as the transfer window approaches its end.
As per many sources, the Ligue 1 giants are desperate to sell the player and have offered him, initially on a loan deal, to Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur. The Londoners are now working on the final details in a bid to pip their local rivals to the Frenchman's signature.
Arteta is reportedly looking forward to having Houssem Aouar in his side due to his contributions in the offensive third. The midfielder endured a frustrating spell by his standards with Lyon last season, bagging two goals and four assists in 33 appearances for the French giants.
#3 Hector Bellerin | Arsenal to Barcelona
In a shocking twist, Barcelona are said to be looking to offload Brazilian full-back Emerson Royale in the coming hours, with Arsenal's Hector Bellerin being lined up as a potential replacement for the former Real Betis defender.
Emerson is yet to play a full game following his switch to Camp Nou this summer. Tottenham Hotspur have shown interest in signing the Brazilian and they've allegedly submitted a bid worth €30 million to secure his services. Barcelona are open to a transfer as they look to raise some cash amid their financial crisis.
Meanwhile, Bellerin is believed to have reached the end of the road at the Emirates Stadium and is said to be looking for a way out. Barcelona are eyeing a swoop for the Spaniard if they end up selling Emerson in the coming hours.
#2 Ruben Neves | Wolves to Manchester United
After strengthening the defense and the attack by signing the likes of Raphael Varane, Jadon Sancho and Cristiano Ronaldo this summer, Manchester United have now prioritized the signing of a defensive midfielder before the end of the transfer window.
They've been heavily linked with Wolves star Ruben Neves over the last couple of hours and it appears a breakthrough could be reached very soon.
The Portuguese has a market value of around €45 million, as per Transfermarkt, but that could be lowered slightly in negotiations. It remains to be seen how things will pan out before the transfer deadline tomorrow.
#1 Kylian Mbappe | Paris Saint-Germain to Real Madrid
In what could be the biggest transfer on deadline day, Real Madrid are well-poised to lure Paris Saint-Germain attacker Kylian Mbappe to the Santiago Bernabeu. The Frenchman has made it clear he wants to move to the Spanish capital and with less than 11 months left on his contract, the Ligue 1 giants could decide to cash in on him.
According to reports, Los Blancos have submitted a gargantuan €215 million bid to sign the winger. The Parisians are said to be considering the bid, having earlier turned down an offer of about €160 million from the La Liga giants.
As it stands, Mbappe is in advanced talks to join Real Madrid and the deal could well be completed in the coming hours. Should the transfer go through, the attacker will reportedly pocket about €35 million net per annum, which would make him the highest-paid player at the Santiago Bernabeu.
