Blackburn Rovers have signed goalkeeper Balazs Toth on a three-year deal and Stoke City midfielder Lewis Baker and Brighton winger Amario Cozier-Duberry on season-long loans.
Toth, 26, joins from Hungarian side Fehervar FC for an undisclosed fee and has been included in the Hungary squad for next month's Nations League fixtures against Germany and Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Former Chelsea youngster Baker made 21 appearances for the Potters last season across all competitions, scoring three goals. He signed for Rovers late on Thursday evening.
"Hopefully, I can add to the good start the club have had to the campaign. I'm excited," Baker said.
"Every time I've come to Blackburn it's been a difficult place to play and I know how it can be when it's rocking here."
Baker joined Stoke on a permanent deal from Chelsea in 2022, having had a number of loan spells in England, Germany and Turkey.
Cozier-Duberry excelled in Arsenal's youth ranks from U15 level, making his competitive debut in an EFL Trophy game as a 16-year-old.
The 19-year-old England U19 international joined Brighton in July following the expiry of his Gunners contract.
He is the latest Seagulls player to be loaned to Blackburn, who have previously borrowed Jan Paul van Hecke, Reda Khadra, Andy Moran and Yasin Ayari from Cozier-Duberry's parent club.
Forward Jack Vale, meanwhile, has returned to Motherwell on loan after spending the second half of last season in Scotland.
Rovers are next in action on Saturday when they travel to Burnley in the Championship.
