A host of football stars are currently without a club as they remain free agents days after the summer transfer window slammed shut.
Arsenal, Manchester United, and Chelsea were among the most active clubs during the window, with the English giants spending massively on new signings.
According to The Mirror, Premier League clubs spent a whopping £2.26 billion on new players, with Declan Rice and Moises Caicedo among the most expensive signings.
