Transfer News: Premier League debut watch: Deadline Day signings in action
It was a busy transfer Deadline Day as Premier League clubs looked to strengthen before the window closed.
So when the action restarts following the international break, there will be a number of big names featuring for new clubs.Here, we pick out just five to look out for...
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (Liverpool)
Oxlade-Chamberlain has been firmly in the spotlight since making his move from Arsenal to Liverpool on Deadline Day. The England man started both of his country's World Cup Qualifiers during the international break, being booed by sections of the Wembley crowd in the win over Slovakia on Monday. Eyes will be on him again this Saturday lunchtime.The 24-year-old is expected to be named in the Liverpool squad for the first time for their visit to Manchester City and it will be a huge occasion. The Reds were unbeaten against top-six opposition last season and if they can see off City at the Etihad Stadium it will raise hopes of a title challenge. Will Oxlade-Chamberlain play his part?
Mamadou Sakho (Crystal Palace)
Crystal Palace fans were craving his return all summer after Sakho won them over with a series of strong performances for Sam Allardyce's side late last season. The former Liverpool defender is back at Selhurst Park under Frank de Boer and while not such an obvious fit for the Dutchman's style of play, his qualities have been hugely missed thus far.The trip to Turf Moor to take on Burnley this Super Sunday is seen as a defining one for De Boer despite it being only his fourth Premier League game in charge and with the home side's aerial prowess in attack, Palace are certain to be tested. Perhaps the physical presence of Sakho will make the difference for his side and his new manager.
