It's been a summer of big spending in the transfer window - but it's about to be slammed shut.

Premier League and EFL clubs have until 23:00 BST on Tuesday to finalise any deals, before a long wait until the window opens again in January.

This is how you can watch, listen and read up on all the last-minute action across the BBC all day.

How can I get text updates on Transfer Deadline Day?

The BBC Sport website and app will keep you updated all day on the latest moves and deals.

There will be a dedicated Transfer Deadline Day live page running from 07:00 BST until the early hours after the window shuts, with news from across the Premier League as well as the biggest updates from the EFL.

You can also access the separate EFL live page with news from across the Championship, League One and League Two.

As well as the latest deals, the Transfer Deadline Day live page will have analysis and reaction from our club reporters and experts across text, video and live streams.

How can I listen to Transfer Deadline Day on the BBC?

BBC Radio 5 Live will bring you updates on the biggest deals during Around-the-Grounds coverage of Tuesday's EFL fixtures from 20:00 BST, with Aaron Paul.

You can also follow Transfer Deadline Day live on your local BBC Radio station. To find coverage on BBC Sounds, just scroll through the live radio dial or search for your local BBC Radio station.
