Today is the last day European teams can sign players who aren't free agents, which means there is plenty of last-minute shopping going on around Europe.
The biggest rumors circulating center around a pair of Manchester City strikers, with Robinho slated to move to AC Milan, and Emmanuel Adebayor reportedly preparing for a loan move to Tottenham (Though fresh report insist Adebayor and goalkeeper Shay Given are staying put).
As far as Americans go, it appears Benny Feilhaber will be staying put at Danish second division club AGF Aarhus, while Freddy Adu stated "Aris it is" on his Twitter feed, which would suggest he's going to stay on loan with Greek club Aris. There is no news on Jay DeMerit, though as a free agent he is not bound by the transfer deadline. Eddie Johnson's future also remains in limbo, with a rumored move to Queens Park Rangers a possibility.
