Still, a number of loan deals, free transfers and low-cost moves have gone through this month, with the necessity to strengthen squads all the great in an injury-hit 2020/21 campaign. Here's a look at 17 deals, including Luton Town, that could still go through before Monday's transfer deadline:
13. Liam Shaw - Sheffield Wednesday to Celtic
The Hoops look set for a major rebuild this summer, having already all but handed the title to arch-rivals Rangers. Shaw has been heavily linked with Celtic, but the player could well opt to extend his Owls contract instead. Photo: George Wood
14. Scott Twine - Swindon Town to Luton Town
The League One ace is attracting a lot of interest, with Luton Town believed to be in the running along with Reading, Brentford and QPR. His manager has hinted that a deal could happen, but a suitable bid is yet to be lodged. Photo: Alex Davidson
15. Siriki Dembele - Peterborough to Nottingham Forest
Peterborough United's latest prospect set to go up for auction, the rapid winger could be snapped up this month. Competition will be fierce if Forest do want the a player, with Celtic, Sheffield United and Fulham also linked. Photo: Alex Pantling
16. Anthony Gordon - Everton to Preston/Blackburn (loan)
Both Preston and Blackburn have both been linked with the teenage attacking midfielder, who could be allowed to leave on loan this month. It all depends on whether the Toffees can offload Bernard first, it appears. Photo: Alex Livesey
