Additionally, following a consultation between Premier League and English Football League (EFL), a domestic-only window will run from 5 October to 16 October. EFL are responsible for running of the lower divisions of English football. No transfers can take place between Premier League clubs during this period.

The rescheduled transfer window is subject to approval from football’s governing body FIFA.

The new date for opening of the transfer window is just one day after the original plan, immediately after the final day of the Premier League season.

Some of the transfers already confirmed are William Saliba joining Arsenal, Timo Werner and Hakim Ziyech headed to Chelsea and Giovani Lo Celso confirming his loan deal at Spurs.
