00:01Newcastle United and Everton experienced two very different deadline days, underlining just how differently the two clubs were approaching their
00:11final day of the transfer window.
00:14For Newcastle, the final day was a statement of their long-term strategy. The Magpies completed a deal for Lille
00:22forward Matias Fernandes Pardo, worth around £51m, adding another young versatile attacker to a squad that has undergone significant changes
00:35this summer.
00:38They also sanctioned Nick Vultomata's loan to Juventus, continuing a recruitment model increasingly focused on youth and potential with a
00:49new manager.
00:54Everton, meanwhile, enjoyed a far more chaotic conclusion. They brought in Jack Grealish back on a season-long loan from
01:02Manchester City and signed former Arsenal player Ainsley Maitland-Niles.
01:07But their biggest piece of business ultimately fell apart. A £40m move for Florian Balligan, collapsed after the striker withdrew
01:16from the deal.
01:20Despite Everton and Monaco agreeing terms and paperwork being submitted.
