But how did the biggest signings of the mid-season window fare? We look at the winners and losers...
5. George Saville - Middlesbrough
Signed for Boro from Millwall last summer (deal completed in January) and was a key part of their campaign - playing 40 times over the course of the league season. Photo: Jan Kruger
6. Jon Obi Mikel - Middlesbrough
The former Chelsea man proved that he still has plenty to offer after some impressive showings in a Boro shirt - but he's looking for a new club this summer. Photo: Tony Marshall
7. Leo Bonatini - Nottingham Forest
The Wolves man joined Forest on loan until the end of the season but only featured five times in the league and was unable to find the back of the net in that time. Photo: David Rogers
8. Philip Heise - Norwich City
Signed from Dynamo Dresden and hasn't really been seen since, with just two first team outings to his name. Photo: THOMAS KIENZLE
