The day's big deals in the Premier League have seen Spurs finally capture Scott Parker from West Ham; Arsenal sign defenders Per Mertesacker and Andre Santos and Joe Cole move on loan from Liverpool to French champions Lille.

QPR and Stoke are being linked with big deals.

Rangers are apparently in for Shaun Wright-Phillips, Craig Bellamy and Anton Ferdinand - while Stoke could get Tottenham duo Peter Crouch and Wilson Palacios.
