Premier League’s summer transfer window begins July 27
A domestic-only window will also be added from Oct 5 and will close on Oct 16.
LONDON: Premier League clubs have agreed to a 10-week summer transfer window, which will open on July 27.
Subject to the approval of football’s world governing body Fifa, the window will open the day after the 2019/20 league season finishes and end on October 5, the date Uefa had recommended for the closure of registration periods across Europe.
The Premier League said that following consultation with the English Football League, a domestic-only window will also be added from Oct 5 and close on Oct 16.
Transfers between Premier League clubs will not be able to occur during this period, but top-flight sides can trade with EFL clubs and loan or sign players permanently.
