The EFL has today confirmed the opening and closing dates for the 2025 summer transfer window.
Due to an additional FIFA Club World Cup registration period introduced ahead of the start of the FIFA Club World Cup, the EFL and its clubs have agreed that the summer transfer window shall operate for an additional 10-day period from Sunday, June 1, to 7pm on Tuesday, June 10.
This is due to the transfer window being unable to exceed a total of 89 days.
The FIFA regulation on this matter permits the member associations of clubs playing in the FIFA Club World Cup to establish this exceptional registration period and there is therefore likely to be considerable transfer activity taking place across the world’s major leagues during this time.
The EFL therefore believes that its clubs should also have the opportunity to be active in the market at this time.
The FIFA Club World Cup is set to take place between June 14 and July 13.

- Open: Sunday, June 1, to Tuesday, June 10 (7pm)
- Close: Tuesday, June 10 (7pm) to Monday, June 16 (midnight)
- Re-open: Monday, June 16, to Monday September 1 (7pm)
