BBC Radio Leeds' Paul Ogden: "So far, a classic modern-day Huddersfield Town transfer window, with a nod towards the financial reward for having stayed in the Premier League at the first attempt.

"A new club transfer record has been set by the permanent acquisition of Terence Kongolo from Monaco, accompanied by a handful of other, more obscure, and typically bold bargain-hunter's captures.

"Egypt's Ramadan Sobhi for example, salvaged from the rubble of Stoke's relegation collapse, wouldn't have interested many other Premier League clubs. Head coach David Wagner however, will have seen something he liked in Sobhi as an opponent last season and believe he can get much more from the player than others have.

"Equally original is the arrival of ex-Germany international Erik Durm to add some much-needed nous to Huddersfield's left side. His low risk, short contract from Borussia Dortmund is a classic win-win."
