Premier League Transfer Window Dates Announced

The Premier League summer transfer window has been confirmed to open from July 27 and close on October 5, but clubs in England’s top-flight can sign players from the EFL in mid-October too.

The season in England’s top flight will have come to an end by then, and the window will shut on October 5 later this year.

In a statement, the Premier League said: “Premier League Shareholders have agreed on the dates for the Summer 2020 transfer window.

“The window will open for 10 weeks at the end of the current Premier League season, starting on 27 July and ending on 5 October.

“Following consultation with the EFL, a domestic-only window will be added from 5 October, closing 17:00 on 16 October.

“During this window, Premier League clubs will only be able to trade with EFL clubs (either loans or permanent registrations).

“No transfers can take place between Premier League clubs in this period.
