There is one Twitter account you really need to be following today during the football transfer deadline day, and this can be found at account DeadlineDayLive. This has to be the best social profile for transfer news that currently features Manchester United’s centre-midfielder actively, a claim that Radamel Falcao was desperate to join Real Madrid, Tom Cleverley’s potential move to Everton, and Sebastian Coates likely move from Liverpool FC to Sunderland on a loan deal.
While you will find plenty of Facebook and Twitter pages offering up transfer news on deadline day, none offer such a high quality live stream of news like twitter.com/DeadlineDayLive, in our opinion. They have over 442,000 followers that already know how often they update, but if you haven’t seen this account before then take a look at some of their recent tweets below.

You’ll also find a number of apps on Android and iOS providing breaking news. These include 3rd party apps and official apps from the likes of Liverpool FC, Everton FC, and in fact all the major clubs. While it is great getting the transfer news today from these apps, it should be noted that they won’t offer the coverage seen on the Deadline Day Live Twitter account thanks to tips from followers and even photos at airports.
