Manchester United and Manchester City may have been quiet during the offseason, but other teams stepped up with massive signings ahead of the EPL campaign that begins today.

All teams in the English Premier League agreed to end their transfer business one day before the beginning of the competition, and in that spirit, all transfers in will cease until January.

There were big spenders from previous seasons such as Manchester United and Manchester City that failed to replicate those numbers, but other teams such as Chelsea and Liverpool stepped up to make the English top flight the league that spent the most money in boosting their squads this summer.

This transfer window brought some interesting footballers to the EPL, and some of them are expected to have a big impact in their teams due to their reputation or due to the amount of money paid for their services. With that in mind, here's our list of players that should have an immediate impact in the 2018-19 English Premier League season.

1. Kepa Arrizabalaga (Athletic Club to Chelsea)

The Basque goalkeeper will be taking Thibaut Courtois' spot under the sticks, and he will have to handle the pressure of becoming the most expensive shot-stopper in history. Chelsea paid Athletic Club over $91M for his services, and fans will want to see the investment pay off.

2. Naby Keita (RB Leipzig to Liverpool)

The midfielder had been on Liverpool's radar for quite some time, and the Guinean footballer will finally join the Reds this season after the $67.3M transfer fee requested by RB Leipzig was paid. His resemblance to Paul Pogba's box-to-box skills will give Jürgen Klopp a variety of options in midfield, and the player's intensity and drive will be key to see the Reds' intentions of winning their first-ever Premier League title.

3. Yerry Mina (Barcelona to Everton)

The former Barcelona outcast saved his career during the FIFA World Cup. Three goals in the same amount of games were enough to convince teams around the world that he was being overlooked by coach Ernesto Valverde, and now, Everton fans will have his towering presence calling the shots in defense. At $34M, Mina's deadline day transfer seems like a bargain, but only time will tell if he will be able to shine in the EPL.

4. Lucas Torreira (Sampdoria to Arsenal)

The man who dominated Cristiano Ronaldo in the 2018 FIFA World Cup game between Uruguay and Portugal gets to Arsenal with an interesting reputation. The holding midfielder gets to the EPL with over 100 games played in Italy, and was highly praised by his coach Unai Emery upon his arrival to Emirates Stadium. It's the kind of footballer Arsenal needed to balance their midfield, and they signed him for $33M.

5. Jorginho (Napoli to Chelsea)

The talented midfielder gets to the Premier League with Maurizio Sarri's blessing. It is a well-known fact that coaches like to embark on new adventures with the help of players they trust 100%, and such is Jorginho's case, since Sarri's success with Napoli was fueled by Jorginho's dominance in midfield. The Brazilian-born footballer joined the Blues on a $64M transfer deal, and fans at Stamford Bridge will surely be interested to see why Sarri pushed so hard to steal his transfer away from Manchester City.
