The English summer transfer window for the 2025 season will close at 7:00 PM BST on Monday, September 1, 2025. This is four hours earlier than the usual 11:00 PM deadline. This closing time applies to Premier League and EFL clubs. Clubs can have a two-hour grace period after the window closes to complete deals if paperwork is submitted by 7:00 PM, and for international signings, there is usually until midnight to comply with FIFA requirements. This adjusted closing time was agreed upon by the Premier League, EFL, and FA to allow a more normal working pattern for football staff.
