when does premier league transfer window close

The Premier League summer transfer window for 2025 will close on Monday, September 1, at 7:00 PM BST (British Summer Time). This closing time is slightly earlier than in previous seasons, when the deadline used to be at 11:00 PM. The change was agreed upon by the Premier League, EFL, and FA to allow a more normal working pattern for football staff. After 7:00 PM, clubs usually have a brief grace period for paperwork, and international signings have until midnight to comply with FIFA requirements. This date is aligned with the transfer window closings of major European leagues like LaLiga, Bundesliga, Serie A, and Ligue 1, which also close at the same time on September 1, 2025.
