| Jonathan Walters came close to joining Leicester on deadline day |
JONATHAN WALTERS brought some much-needed comedy to to deadline day by tweeting his refusal to join Manchester United.
United boss Louis van Gaal completed a stunning £36million swoop - rising to £58m with add-ons - for Monaco striker Anthony Martial before the window shut at 6pm today.
The Red Devils were linked with a host of big names this summer such as Neymar, Thomas Muller and Gareth Bale.

But United fans have had to settle for Martial - who is now the most expensive teenager in history.
And Stoke winger Walters took the opportunity to mock Van Gaal after his mooted move to Leicester fell through at the last minute.

Stoke team-mate Charlie Adam tweeted his approval, writing: "Great news @JonWalters19 staying."
Walters had looked set to leave the Britannia after handing in a transfer request but Stoke's £3m valuation looks to have scuppered the deal.
