The international break handed clubs the bill before it even finished

The September window cost clubs before it closed. Real Madrid confirmed Mbappe has a hyperextension of the posterior capsule in his left knee with no timetable; Hamburg said Gronbaek tore a muscle in his right thigh after coming on against Norway; and Liverpool confirmed Isak returned early from Sweden duty with a minor injury. Off the pitch Parma and Carlos Cuesta parted by mutual agreement, Liverpool named Julian Ward sporting director for a second stint, and Liverpool's women won a WSL Merseyside derby at Anfield for the first time.
