All you need to know about the summer transfer window

With the January transfer window closed, clubs and fans are already looking ahead to who will be unveiled in the summer sunshine.

While the likes of Bruno Fernandes and Virgil van Dijk have made a huge impact after arriving in the winter, the warmer months are when most teams like to get things done.

Last season, Cristiano Ronaldo’s return to Manchester United stole the headlines and Jack Grealish became the first £100million British footballer.

LiveScore look at the dates to keep an eye out for across Europe’s major leagues.

Premier League transfer deadline

The transfer window for the Premier League is expected to open on June 9 but most international deals will not clear until July 1.

Deadline day has not been officially confirmed but the English top-flight closed for business at 11pm on August 31 in 2021 and that should stay the same.

LaLiga transfer window

LaLiga clubs will be permitted to register players from July 1 and league chiefs are expected to announce that the deals must be concluded by the final day of August.

Serie A transfer window

Like Spain, the market will open on July 1 and close again on August 31. 

Serie A bosses used to close the window the day before the season began but followed the Premier League’s example in matching with the rest of Europe’s top leagues.

Bundesliga transfer window

Yet to confirm a date for the window closure, the Bundesliga is expected to set it at 5pm GMT on August 31 — around six hours earlier than predicted for most leagues.

Clubs will be allowed to do business from July 1 onwards.

Ligue 1 transfer window

French chiefs are set to follow in the Premier League’s footsteps and open their window on June 9.

They have not announced an official end date but it is likely to be just before midnight on August 31.
