5 former Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham stars still available on FREE transfer

The summer transfer window may have firmly closed, but that doesn't mean the business is entirely done for clubs across Europe.

For Premier League teams, their opportunity to secure significant deals concluded last week, and we were certainly treated to a hectic deadline day as players including Tottenham new boy Randal Kolo Muani made their moves.

There are still a handful of countries whose transfer windows remain open, including Turkey, Portugal and Saudi Arabia - meaning Premier League clubs could still offload or loan out players to these nations.

However, when it comes to free agents, these players can be signed at any time, irrespective of the transfer window - and there are plenty still available. But with Premier League squads due to be confirmed this week, time is ticking.

Here, we take a look at former Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham players who are still on the market and who might secure a move in the upcoming days...

Takehiro Tomiyasu

Tomiyasu, who joined Arsenal in 2021, has found it difficult to secure a new club following his departure from the Emirates this summer.

The Japanese international is currently dealing with a knee injury, which has understandably deterred potential suitors who may prefer to wait until he's fully recovered.

However, reports suggest that AC Milan are considering making an offer for Tomiyasu, although they may wish to evaluate his fitness first.

Hakim Ziyech

Ziyech, the former Chelsea winger, most recently played for Al-Duhail in Qatar, where he made 13 appearances in the second half of the 2024-25 season before his contract was mutually terminated.

Prior to this, his contract at Galatasaray was also terminated after he played 34 times for the Turkish club over one and a half seasons.

Given his lack of success in Qatar, it could be challenging for Ziyech to attract interest from top clubs, but at 32, he could still prolong his career.

English football fans will recall him playing 107 times for Chelsea, scoring 14 goals, though his time at Stamford Bridge ended controversially when he was famously denied a transfer to PSG on deadline day.

Sergio Reguilon

Reguilon, once a promising Real Madrid prospect, moved to Tottenham in 2020 but failed to live up to expectations as a future world-class left-back, quickly losing his place in the team and failing to impress several managers.

Reguilon, who has had loan spells at Atletico Madrid, Manchester United and Brentford, hasn't quite managed to make a significant impact at any of these clubs. Despite starting his career with their arch-rivals, there are whispers that Atletico are considering another swoop for Reguilon, as Diego Simeone's squad is in dire need of bolstering following a winless start to the season.

At 28, Reguilon still has plenty of time to get his career back on track and secure regular playing time.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

Oxlade-Chamberlain, the ex-Arsenal player, finds himself at a career crossroads at the age of 32 after being let go by Besiktas in the summer. Oxlade-Chamberlain, who made 146 appearances for Liverpool between 2017 and 2023, initially thrived in Turkey, featuring 30 times in his debut season before his opportunities dwindled.

Last season, he only started 14 league matches and was omitted from their Europa League group stage squad. Besiktas chose to terminate his contract early this summer, reportedly paying him a £1.5m severance fee.

However, this hasn't deterred interest from England, with Tom Brady's up-and-coming Birmingham City rumoured to be interested in the England international.

Dele Alli

Alli, once hailed as a wonderkid for Tottenham and England, is facing a challenging period in his career after being released by FC Como.

The move to Italy last year was seen as a fresh start for the troubled star, who has been candid about his battles with addiction, mental health issues and a difficult upbringing.

Como's manager Cesc Fabregas reportedly excluded Alli from his pre-season squad after only fielding him once - a game that saw him dismissed within the first ten minutes of play last season.

Despite this, there has been some interest from English clubs, including Wrexham, Birmingham City and West Bromwich Albion.

A potential move to the Hawthorns would reunite him with ex-Spurs colleague Ryan Mason, who has recently taken the reins at West Brom.
