Dry those eyes...
The end is near for another incredibly underwhelming January-and-a-tiny-bit-of-February transfer window.
None of us may have known what an Ozan Kabak was a matter of hours ago, but the news that he - a promising 20-year-old Turkish defender, by the way - is
joining Liverpool from Schalke is undoubtedly the main headline grabber on deadline day.
But never mind that deal. We're not here for that. We're here for the other, much-less-talked-about transfers that might just have escaped your attention as the precious seconds slip away on Sky Sports News' big, fancy countdown clock.
Without further ado, here are some of the deadline day transfers you might have missed:
18:44 - Teden Mengi to Derby
Missed this one earlier but it's been confirmed that Wayne Rooney has used his relationship with Manchester United to take extremely highly rated young defender Teden Mengi on loan.

15:40 - Taylor Harwood-Bellis to Blackburn

14:56 - Gedson Fernandes to Galatasaray
Remember Gedson Fernandes? The one some people mistook for
Bruno Fernandes when it first emerged Spurs were trying to get him? Yeah, him. Things haven't quite worked out since arriving in north London a year ago, and so he's now off to Turkey, to join Galatasaray on loan. Things have been complicated by a positive Covid test, which, according to reports in Turkey, say he travelled by ambulance plane to get the deal done.
Aaron McEneff to Hearts
The Shamrock Rovers midfielder was recently called up to the Ireland squad by Stephen Kenny and moved to Scottish Championship leaders Hearts on deadline day.
14:09 - Troy Parrott to Ipswich
In search of first-team minutes, Troy Parrott has left Spurs for a rest-of-the-season loan to Ipswich and clearly looks delighted about it.

13:58 - Mitchel Bergkamp to Watford
Yes, he is related. Mitchel Bergkamp, son of Arsenal's legendary non-flying Dutchman, Dennis, has signed for Watford subject to international clearance. The 22-year-old attacking midfielder had inked a six-month deal which could be extended and will join the U23 squad.
11:32 - Winston Reid to Brentford
Just about the only central defender not linked with Liverpool in the last week, Winston Reid has left West Ham on a loan deal with Brentford for the rest of the season.

08:47 - Joshua Zirkzee to Parma
Okay, okay. Not technically a done deal but it's early and we're excited. Joshua Zirkzee is nearing the completion of his move from Bayern Munich to Parma, report
Sky Italy. The Dutch forward has touched down in Milan ahead of a medical and signing his contract. Do any of you know who Joshua Zirkzee is or even care about this news? Quite possibly not.
08:50 - Shane Long to Bournemouth
For the first time in ten years, Shane Long's run as a Premier League player has come to an end. What a career the Tipperary man has had at the top level, scoring 55 goals in 330 appearances. He heads to Bournemouth on loan for the rest of the season.
