Premier League 2020 summer transfer to open for ten weeks

The English Premier League has announced the dates for the 2020 summer transfer.

Dates picked are far from the usual July-September due to obvious reason.

The 2019/20 season started the usual way but is ending the unusual way after COVID-19 pandemic affected the world activities including sports.

For this reason, transfer will be taking place from July 27th until October 5th.

‘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 27 July and ending 5 October.

‘Following consultation with the EFL, a domestic-only window will be added from 5 October, closing 5pm 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.

‘The transfer window is subject to the approval of FIFA.’
