• Arsenal sign Kim Kallstrom on loan from Spartak Moscow
• Crystal Palace bring in five players including Tom Ince
Arsenal
Ins Kim Kallstrom (Spartak Moscow, loan)
Outs Nico Yennaris (Brentford, undisc), Chuba Akpom (Brentford, loan), Anthony Jeffrey (Wycombe, free ), Benik Afobe (Sheff Weds, loan), Emmanuel Frimpong (Barnsley, undisc), Billy Clifford (Colchester, loan), Park Chu-young (Watford, loan)
Arsène Wenger's interest in Julian Draxler raised hopes of a pulse-quickening deal but Schalke's sky-high valuation of the midfielder put paid to them. Arsenal will try again in the summer. Wenger moved for the Sweden midfielder Kim Kallstrom on loan as he reacted to injuries, chief among them the setback to Aaron Ramsey. DH
Aston Villa
Ins Grant Holt (Wigan, loan), Ryan Bertrand (Chelsea, loan)
Outs Stephen Ireland (Stoke, undisc), Jordan Graham (Bradford, loan), Michael Drennan (Carlisle, loan)
The main target was a No10 to inject some much-needed midfield creativity but Paul Lambert's pursuit of Norwich City's Wes Hoolahan was never going to be straightforward. With or without Hoolahan, the Villa manager claimed he would happy with his lot. Grant Holt on loan from Wigan may not have been what Villa fans had in mind but the arrival of Ryan Bertrand, on loan from Chelsea, was an excellent piece of business. SJ
Cardiff City
Ins Magnus Wolff Eikrem (Heerenveen, undisc), Mats Moller Daehli, Jo Inge Berget (both Molde, undisc); Wilfried Zaha (loan), Fábio da Silva (undisc) (both Man Utd)
Outs Rudy Gestede (Blackburn, undisc), Filip Kiss (Ross County, loan), Nicky Maynard (Wigan, loan), John Brayford (Sheff Utd, loan), Craig Conway (Blackburn, undisc), Simon Moore (Bristol City, loan), Andreas Cornelius (Copenhagen, undisc)
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer made five permanent signings, including three Norwegians. Clearly Solskjaer didn't think much of the squad he inherited from Malky Mackay. Arguably the most eye-catching recruit is Wilfried Zaha, who joined on loan from Old Trafford and Andreas Cornelius returned home. Bottom-of-the-table on the day the window closed, Solskjaer will not be able to complain about a lack of backing if he fails to keep Cardiff up to Denmark after only six months. SJ
Chelsea
Ins Nemanja Matic (Benfica, £20.75m), Mohamed Salah (Basel, undisclosed), Bertrand Traoré (Bobo-Dioulasso, free), Kurt Zouma (St Etienne, £12.5m)
Outs Juan Mata (Man Utd, £37.1m), Michael Essien (Milan, undisc), Bertrand Traoré (Vitesse, loan), Kenneth Omeruo (Middlesbrough, loan), Nathaniel Chalobah (Middlesbrough, loan), Patrick Bamford (Derby, loan), Kevin De Bruyne (Wolfsburg, £17m), Josh McEachran (Wigan, loan), Ryan Bertrand (Aston Villa, loan), Sam Walker (Colchester, free), Billy Clifford (Colchester, loan), Gaël Kakuta (Lazio, loan)
José Mourinho prioritised his central midfield, with Nemanja Matic's return to the club meeting his objective. Kevin de Bruyne had made clear a desire to leave, while Juan Mata's departure necessitated the purchase of a replacement, in Mohamed Salah "Matic was a 'need' and, with a profit, we changed two players for two others so the squad is more balanced," said the manager. The swathe of temporary departures, and Michael Essien's free transfer exit, were to be expected with a new forward line to be pursued in the summer. DF
Crystal Palace
Ins Wayne Hennessey (Wolves, £1.5m), Jason Puncheon (Southampton, £1.75m), Scott Dann (Blackburn, £1.7m), Tom Ince (Blackpool, loan), Joe Ledley (Celtic, £450,000)
Outs Jimmy Kébé (Leeds, loan), Kevin Phillips (Leicester, free), Jason Banton (Plymouth, undisc), Matt Parsons (Plymouth, undisc), Kwesi Appiah (Notts County, loan), Stephen Dobbie (Blackpool, loan)
A month of painful negotiations with clubs and agents inevitably prompted a splurge on the window's final day, which must have infuriated Tony Pulis who had craved doing his business early. Yet he did at least receive the board's backing at the last to offer hope that the eye-catching turnaround instigated since November can be maintained. There are new recruits down the spine of his team, with the manager's judgment finally backed. DF
Everton
Ins Lacina Traoré (Monaco, loan), Aiden McGeady (Spartak Moscow, £2.5m), Jindrich Stanek (Sparta Prague, undisc)
Outs Matthew Kennedy (Tranmere, loan), Nikica Jelavic (Hull, £6.5m), Tyias Browning (Wigan, loan), Shane Duffy (Yeovil, loan), Hallam Hope (Northampton, loan), Chris Long (MK Dons, loan), Matthew Pennington (Tranmere, loan), John Heitinga (Fulham, free)
On paper Everton have a stronger squad than at the start of the window, with Aiden McGeady (Spartak Moscow) and Lacina Traoré more than covering the sale of Nikica Jelavic to Hull City. Roberto Martínez says a squad should always be in better shape when a transfer window closes but whether Everton have achieved that objective is debatable. On paper, they have. With injuries piling up, however, and new arrivals short of match fitness, it may be a while before the improvement tells. AH
Fulham
Ins Clint Dempsey (Seattle Sounders, loan), William Kvist (Stuttgart, loan), Lewis Holtby (Tottenham, loan), Kostas Mitroglou (Olympiakos, £11m), Johnny Heitinga (Everton, free), Larnell Cole, Ryan Tunnicliffe (both Manchester Utd, undisc)
Outs Bryan Ruiz (PSV Eindhoven, loan), Stephen Arthurworrey (Tranmere, loan), Marcus Bettinelli (Accrington, loan), Jack Grimmer (Port Vale, loan), Aaron Hughes (QPR, free), Billy Clifford (Colchester, loan), Dimitar Berbatov (Monaco, loan), Philippe Senderos (Valencia, undisc)
This was a big window for the relegation battle ahead and deadline day was busy with Olympiakos's Kostas Mitroglou joining. Dimitar Berbatov's future had been in doubt for some time - he had moped for weeks - and the only surprise about his departure concerned the destination; nobody saw Monaco coming. Lewis Holtby's arrival, though, gives René Meulensteen the attack-minded midfielder he craved. DH
Hull City
Ins Nikica Jelavic (Everton, £6.5m), Shane Long (West Brom, £7m), Elliott Kebbie (unattached)
Outs Tom Cairney (Blackburn, undisc), Eldin Jakupovic (Leyton Orient, loan), Gedo (Al Ahly), Aaron Mclean (Bradford, undisc), Cameron Stewart (Leeds, undisc), Conor Townsend (Carlisle, loan), Nick Proschwitz (Barnsley, loan), Jack Hobbs (Nottingham Forest, undisc)
With Hull sliding towards relegation waters, after such a bright beginning to the season Steve Bruce has sensibly reinforced his attack. Shane Long looks an excellent signing while it will be intriguing to see whether Nikica Jelavic can revive a once so promising career on Humberside. Bruce though made his most important signing last summer - his key midfielder Tom Huddlestone remains the man who makes Hull play. LT
Liverpool
Ins
Outs Tiago Ilori (Granada, loan), Craig Roddan (Accrington, loan), Ryan McLaughlin (Barnsley, loan), Adam Morgan (Yeovil, free), Michael Ngoo (Walsall, loan) , Billy Clifford (Colchester, loan)
Brendan Rodgers said before the transfer window opened that he needed players to make an immediate impact on Liverpool's first team, not to make up numbers, but the club failed to hit that specific target. And not for the first time. Having missed out on Mohamed Salah to Chelsea, Liverpool made a concerted late effort to secure the £16m signature of Yevhen Konoplyanka from Dnipro but failed as the window began to close. AH
Manchester City
Ins
Outs John Guidetti (Stoke, loan), Abdisalam Ibrahim (released), Albert Rusnak (Birmingham, loan)
The late dash to try to sign Eliaquim Mangala and/or Fernando from Porto emphasised City's weakness in central defence and, to a lesser extent, defensive midfield. £48m was the asking price for the pair and if City, flying in all four competitions, had acquired the central defender Mangala it would have strengthened the assault on the quadruple. Instead, while no one arrived, John Guidetti went on loan to Stoke City. JJ
Manchester United
Ins Juan Mata (Chelsea, £37.1m)
Outs Anderson (Fiorentina, loan), Fábio da Silva (Cardiff, undisc), Jack Barmby (Hartlepool, loan), Wilfried Zaha (Cardiff, loan), Sam Byrne (Carlisle, loan), Tyler Blackett, Tom Thorpe, Federico Macheda (all Birmingham, loan), Will Keane (QPR, loan), Sam Johnstone (Doncaster, loan)
A central midfielder (or two) remains the holy grail for David Moyes. While he can point to the acquisition of Juan Mata for a record £37.1m fee from Chelsea as tidy work, the sense remains that Champions League qualification will be a struggle due to the gaps in midfield and the creaking defence. To Cardiff City have gone Fábio da Silva, for a small fee, and Wilfried Zaha, on loan. JJ
Newcastle United
Ins Luuk de Jong (Borussia Mönchengladbach, loan)
Outs Jonás Gutiérrez (Norwich, loan), Yohan Cabaye (Paris Saint-Germain, undisclosed), Curtis Good (Dundee United, loan), Billy Clifford (Colchester, loan)
A month when Alan Pardew lost much more than he gained. France playmaker Yohan Cabaye's £20m departure for Paris Saint-Germain leaves a huge chasm in midfield and Joe Kinnear's failure to recruit a replacement could yet cost the team European football next season. Luuk de Jong has arrived on loan from Borussia Mönchengladbach but the Holland striker has a lot to prove after struggling in the Bundesliga. Much hinges on whether Hatem Ben Arfa can revive his Tyneside career. LT
Norwich City
Ins Jonás Gutiérrez (Newcastle, loan), Joseph Yobo (Fenerbahce, loan)
Outs Daniel Ayala (Middlesbrough, £350,000), Jamar Loza (Leyton Orient, loan)
It has been a quiet January in east Anglia on the transfer front, despite Norwich City being in an undoubted battle for Premier League survival this season. Chris Hughton's side are currently 12th in the table following a period of minor concern, and the Canaries manager has added two players on loan this winter – Joseph Yobo from Galatasaray and Jonás Gutiérrez from Newcastle. JR
Southampton
Ins
Outs Billy Sharp (Doncaster, loan), Lee Barnard (Southend, loan), Jason Puncheon (Crystal Palace, undisc), Dani Osvaldo (Juventus, loan)
Mauricio Pochettino had indicated he did not anticipate incomings to St Mary's this month after a solid campaign to date. This is a manager who prefers to add in the summer. He has at least trimmed a bloated squad, although arguably the most eye-catching departures will end up being their record signing, Dani Osvaldo, to Juventus and their executive chairman, Nicola Cortese. Retaining Luke Shaw is encouraging. DF
Stoke City
Ins John Guidetti (Man City, loan), Stephen Ireland (Aston Villa, undisc), Juan Agudelo (New England Revolution, free)
Outs Brek Shea (Barnsley, loan), Juan Agudelo (Utrecht, loan), Jamie Ness (Leyton Orient, loan)
Mark Hughes injected the pace and movement he desired in the Stoke forward line by swapping Kenwyne Jones for Peter Odemwingie, and acquiring frustrated Swedish striker adding John Guidetti on loan from Manchester City, but the welcome arrival of Tom Ince failed to materialise as Stoke refused to meet Blackpool's demands. That said, Hughes' gradual overhaul is taking shape and the bid to lure Lee Cattermole showed clear intent. AH
Sunderland
Ins Marcos Alonso (Fiorentina, loan), Oscar Ustari (Almería, free), Santiago Vergini (Estudiantes, loan), Ignacio Scocco (Internacional, undisc), Liam Bridcutt (Brighton, undisc)
Outs Mikael Mandron (Fleetwood, loan), Cabral (Genoa, loan), Ji Dong-won (Augsburg, undisc), Billy Knott (Port Vale, loan), Alfred N'Diaye (Real Betis, loan), Modibo Diakité (Fiorentina, loan), Duncan Watmore (Hibernian, loan), David Moberg Karlsson (Kilmarnock, loan), Danny Graham (Middlesbrough, loan)
Defender Santiago Vergini, goalkeeper Oscar Ustari and striker Ignacio Scocco bring a little corner of Argentina to Wearside, while Liam Bridcutt could prove valuable's exchange of life at the base of Brighton's midfield for a similar role at Sunderland promises to help Gus Poyet implement his beloved possesion based passing game. Poyet's team approach the vital phase of their relegation battle looking stronger - and a little more subtle. LT
Swansea City
Ins Marvin Emnes (Middlesbrough, loan), David Ngog (Bolton, undisclosed)
Outs Alan Tate (Aberdeen, loan), Daniel Alfei (Portsmouth, loan), Rory Donnelly (Coventry, loan)
Not exactly an inspiring window for Swansea but they were never likely to spend big. David Ngog, signed from Bolton, is expected to be little more than an impact player, providing back-up to Wilfried Bony and Michu, once the Spaniard returns from injury. Several deals were hanging in the balance during the final hours on deadline day, including Neil Taylor's switch to Fulham, which was dependent on Swansea signing Leicester's Jeffrey Schlupp. SJ
Tottenham Hotspur
Ins
Outs Shaquile Coulthirst (Leyton Orient, loan), Jon Obika (Brighton, loan), Jermain Defoe (Toronto, from February 28, undisc), Simon Dawkins (Derby, £500,000), Ryan Fredericks (Millwall, loan), Lewis Holtby (Fulham, loan), Adam Smith (Bournemouth, undisc)
In a highly unusual twist, Tottenham kept their heads down for most of the month and were not major players, with the manager, Tim Sherwood, insistent that his squad was sufficiently equipped as it was. He will, though, lose Jermain Defoe to Toronto FC at the end of February, while he allowed Lewis Holtby to join Fulham on loan. He says that Holtby still has a future at Tottenham. DH
West Bromwich Albion
Ins Thievy Bafouma (Espanyol, loan)
Outs Shane Long (Hull, £7m), Lee Camp (Bournemouth, free), George Thome (Derby County, loan
The Baggies opted to stick rather than twist this January, confident the players at the club can secure safety this season. Pepe Mel, appointed midway through the month, allowed Shane Long to depart for Hull City but signed the young Espanyol striker Thievy Bifouma on loan, and had moved for the Norwich City midfielder Wes Hoolahan. JR
West Ham United
Ins Roger Johnson (Wolves, loan), Antonio Nocerino (Milan, loan), Marco Borriello (Roma, loan), Abdul Razak (Anzhi, short-term deal), Pablo Armero (Napoli, loan)
Outs Blair Turgott (Rotherham, loan), Paul McCallum (Hearts, loan), Modibo Maïga (QPR, loan)
Sam Allardyce cut a forlorn figure at one stage of the window, having been thwarted in attempts to sign Johnny Heitinga and Lacina Traoré among others. However, West Ham have been one of the busiest clubs and, while Roger Johnson's arrival did not get the pulse racing, the loan signings of the Italians Marco Borriello and Antonio Nocerino, as well as Abdul Razak from Anzhi, have added valuable depth to the squad.
