When does the transfer window close? How long Leeds United, Sheffield United, Sheffield Wednesday, Huddersfield Town and rivals have to complete deals

Deadline Day is upon us with just one day remaining for clubs to complete their transfer business for the remainder of the season.

The window officially opened on January 1 for clubs in England and Scotland with plenty of deals done already. Chelsea have been the biggest spenders, with seven new arrivals this month at the cost of almost £200m.

Today, they could seal a £105m move for World Cup winning midfielder Enzo Fernandez from Benfica. Leeds United signed Weston McKennie from Juventus on Monday and yet more activity is expected at Elland Road.
