The EFL has today confirmed the opening and closing dates for the 2025 summer Transfer Window.- Open: Sunday, 1st June to Tuesday, 10th June (19:00)
- Close: Tuesday, 10th June (19:00:01) to Monday, 16th June (00:01)
- Re-open: Monday, 16th June to Monday, 1st September (19:00)
Due to an additional FIFA Club World Cup Registration Period introduced ahead of the start of the FIFA Club World Cup, the EFL and its Clubs have agreed that the summer transfer window shall operate for an additional ten-day period from Sunday, 1st June 2025 to 19:00 on Tuesday, 10th June 2025. This is due to the transfer window being unable to exceed a total of 89 days.
The FIFA regulation on this matter permits the member associations of Clubs playing in the FIFA Club World Cup to establish this exceptional registration period, and there is therefore likely to be considerable transfer activity taking place across the world’s major leagues during this time.
The EFL therefore believes that its Clubs should also have the opportunity to be active in the market at this time.
The FIFA Club World Cup is set to take place between 14th June 2025 and 13th July 2025.
