Premier League clubs spent a record amount in last year's winter transfer window and on deadline day - but 12 months on the picture looks much different.
Just 17 deals have been completed so far, with a total spending of £113m - a long way short of the £430m spent in January 2018 - while half of the 20 Premier League sides have not signed anyone.
Last-ditch, big-money deals, including Arsenal's £58m for striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Tottenham paying £23m for winger Lucas Moura, contributed to a record £150m outlay on deadline day in January 2018.
