When is the football transfer deadline?

The football transfer deadline varies from league to league. On February 2nd, the transfer window for the English Premier League and EFL clubs closes at 19:00 GMT. The same deadline applies to France, Italy, and Germany.

If players want to make late transfers, they can do so in Spain and Belgium, where the transfer window closes on February 2nd at 22:59 GMT. The Scottish league closes at 23:00 GMT.

Portugal and the Netherlands have extended their transfer window until February 3rd. The Turkish and Greek leagues close on February 6th, while the Serbian league closes on February 13th.

The Swiss league has extended its transfer window until February 16th, and Major League Soccer in the US closes on March 26th.

The Women's Super League (WSL) and Super League 2 transfer window closes on February 3rd at 23:00 GMT.

English Premier League clubs must submit their squads by February 5th.

The early transfer deadline is designed to avoid disrupting club staff's work schedules. It also aligns with the deadlines in France, Italy, and Germany.

Agreements can still be made after the transfer deadline, but clubs must submit a 'deal sheet' at least two hours in advance.
