The transfer deadline is fast approaching and twitter is going absolutely insane. Stories are flying in left, right, and centre and if the rumours are to believed then a whole host of clubs are going to look a lot different than they did yesterday.

Anthony Martial to Manchester United has dominated the news due to the high fee and the fact that it took everyone by surprise, so here are 10 deals you may have missed amongst the madness.

Not all of these are definitely going through but they are all in development at the moment.

Keylor Navas to Manchester United

Marca are reporting that Manchester United have agreed to sell David De Gea to Real Madrid for cash plus Keylor Navas. The experienced Costa Rican goalkeeper had his name chanted by the Real Madrid fans this weekend as he put in an excellent performance, and would likely replace Sergio Romero as United's #1.

Michail Antonio to West Ham United

Nottingham Forest winger Michail Antonio has had a fantastic start to the season in the Championship, and West Ham are looking to add depth to the wings following the departure of Stewart Downing to Middlesbrough. £7m is the reported fee, which would represent good business for both clubs.

Adnan Januzaj to Borussia Dortmund

One of the more surprising stories today emerged as Sky Sports broke the news that Adnan Januzaj is wanted by Dortmund and the club are currently negotiating a season long loan deal. Does this mean Manchester United will be in for another winger/playmaker?

Papy Djilobodji to Chelsea

Highly rated FC Nantes defender Papy Djilobodji (or Jillobody if you're understandably struggling to pronounce it) is reported to be discussing a £3.5m move to Chelsea. This would mean that Chelsea have finally given up on John Stones, but this is a deal that not too many saw coming.
