July 10 – Premier League clubs have delayed a decision about the dates for this summer’s transfer window and are reported to be considering extending the timeline for deals with other English divisions.
UEFA has recommended that domestic leagues shut their windows no later than Monday, October 5, a fortnight before the group stages of the 2020-21 Champions League and Europa League are due to begin.
The Premier League is set to follow that guidance for international deals and transfers between top-flight clubs, but representatives of the 20 clubs have discussed a two-week extension for deals involving the English Football League, allowing for business to be conducted up to October 19.
The window is expected to open as soon as the season finishes on July 26.
Clubs also discussed the start date for the 2020-21 Premier League season but no decision has yet been reached.
