The Premier League has confirmed that the summer transfer window for 2020 will take place between July 25 and October 5.
That is in line with the Bundesliga, Serie A and LaLiga, who have already confirmed that October 5 will be their last day of their summer windows too.
It means that clubs in England’s top division will have 10 weeks to sign new players in time for the start of the 2020/21 campaign.
In a statement the Premier League said: “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 on 27 July and ending on 5 October.
“Following consultation with the EFL, a domestic-only window will be added from 5 October, closing 17:00 BST 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.”
