Such misfortune gives added credence to Mourinho’s decision to steal Romelu Lukaku away from Everton early in the transfer window so as to avoid any such panic. Chelsea, on the other hand, failed to lure fellow Evertonian Ross Barkley to Stamford Bridge even though the player completed a the medical with the Premier League champions. A dramatic U-turn meant Barkley will stay put for now, joining Sanchez, van Dijk, Lemar, Riyad Mahrez and Diego Costa in that course of action. In the end it was left to Chelsea’s £35 million signing Danny Drinkwater from Leicester and Crystal Palace’s new £26 million defender Mamadou Sakho to claim the transfer headlines even if neither player will rank as a major transfer day coup. But one thing is for sure – as unsuccessful as the summer proved to be for England’s big clubs, they will all be back in the market with cash to burn once the January window opens for business. 被西甲豪门巴萨追逐的巴西球星费利佩·库蒂尼奥目前仍是利物浦的一员 Brazilian star Philippe Coutinho remained at Liverpool despite being heavily targeted by Spanish giants Barcelona
