Not everyone gets their move before the transfer window SLAMS SHUT. Here’s a list of one such player for each Premier League club.
Some were desperate to leave, some needed to leave for their own good and to play some football, some a bit of both. None got their wish. Unless they go to Turkey where the deadline isn’t for a couple of days and at least one of them probably will. Thanks, Turkey, you great feature-ruiner.
Arsenal – Reiss Nelson
The Arsenal staples for this kind of feature are all out of the picture now. Gone are the days we could just put Lucas Torreira down and not give it a second thought. Even Nicolas Pepe and Ainsley Maitland-Niles have gone out on loan now. And Nuno Tavares. And Pablo Mari. And with the Gunners now in full two-games-a-week mode until the World Cup there should be plenty of opportunities for most of what does seem to be a very happy squad. So Reiss Nelson, back at the club after a loan spell at Feyenoord and now injured at an inconvenient time, gets on this list pretty much by default.

Three bids from Arsenal arrived in the latter stages of the transfer window, three bids were knocked back. The last of them worth £25m plus extras at 10pm on deadline day according to transfer rumour wrangler-in-chief Fabrizio Romano. Whether Arsenal or anyone else comes knocking again in January when Douglas will have just six months left on his Villa contract we shall have to wait and see but it seems likely.

He was already a fringe player during the promotion campaign and there must be more to life than coming off the bench for the closing minutes of a 9-0 defeat to Liverpool, surely.
Brentford – Charlie Goode
Spent the second half of last season on loan at Sheffield United but returned to Brentford in the summer and has yet to make even the bench this season. Not getting on nine-man subs’ benches is a pretty clear sign you might be better off somewhere else.
Brighton – Tariq Lamptey
Spurs, Arsenal and Manchester United have all been linked with the former Chelsea right-back who has this year found himself used sparingly by high-flying Brighton, appearing only in substitute cameos. There’s no doubt Brighton is a decent place to be, but you’d want to be a bit move involved…
