Brighton have reached a verbal agreement to sign former Real Madrid midfielder Chema Andrés from VfB Stuttgart on deadline day. The two clubs moved rapidly to finalise a lucrative transfer for the talented prospect, who is now preparing to travel for his medical before the window officially closes, ending speculation over a return to Spain.

Reigning champions Bayern Munich initiated their Bundesliga title defence with an emphatic 5-1 victory over Stuttgart at the Allianz Arena. Vincent Kompany's rampant side swiftly recovered from a momentary second-half equaliser, scoring four unanswered goals to extend their remarkable run of avoiding defeat in opening league matches since 2011.
