Roma left it late

The other two signings were a little more hectic, only completed with minutes to spare before the transfer deadline at 23.00 GMT.

Salah-Eddine just turned 23 last month and completed the transfer from FC Twente for €8m, but he was still undergoing extensive medical tests until 15 minutes before the deadline.

The left-back is seen as the understudy to first choice Angelino and is a product of the Ajax academy.

Midfielder Gourna-Douath was also left to the last few minutes, squeezing the contract through under the wire.

He has arrived on loan with option to buy from RB Salzburg at the end of the season for circa €18m.

In order to save time, Gourna-Douath underwent his medical tests in Austria.

Meanwhile, Roma also sent Dahl to Benfica on loan at a cost of €600,000 with an option to make it permanent for €10m plus a 20 per cent cut of the future sell-on fee.
