It’s hard to rival Serie A in terms of the amount of transfer activity between the top clubs. 

Peterborough United could have sparked a late transfer frenzy as they have lodged a double bid at the final hour for a pair of Crawley Town’s promotion chasing squad. Boss Darren Ferguson has swash-buckled in with a £1.9 million bid for striker Tyrone Barnett and central defender Kyle Mcfadzean, who have both been central to the Crawley team’s admirable FA Cup run and successful League Two campaign to date.

After his explosive goalscoring exploits for League 1 club Huddersfield Town, clubs up and down the country are looking at Jordan Rhodes. Whether Rhodes moves on or not remains to be seen but we take a look at his flourishing career so far.

Fresh from offering a relatively large sum of money and being rebuffed by Crystal Palace for Wilfried Zaha, Bolton Wanderers manager Owen Coyle seems to have got wallet-happy again in his pursuit of Middlesbrough’s versatile defender Rhys Williams.

Messrs David Gold and Sullivan better be prepared for gigantic phone bills and a huge trail of legal paper-work as wheeler dealer Sam Allardyce comes into his own on transfer deadline day and bursts into action like a starving puma ready to pounce on some unsuspecting soul.
