Premier League to open transfer window early due to Club World Cup
- On Thursday, March 27, 2025, Premier League clubs agreed to open the summer transfer window early for a 10-day period between June 1 and June 10.
- FIFA decided to allow member associations of participating clubs the option of opening an "exceptional registration window" in June before the FIFA Club World Cup, which will be held in the United States from June 14 to July 13 and feature 32 teams.
- This early opening allows clubs participating in the Club World Cup, such as Chelsea and Manchester City, to register new players before the tournament.
- According to the Premier League, the "window will open early, between Sunday 1 June and Tuesday 10 June, due to an exceptional registration period relating to the FIFA Club World Cup," and will reopen on Monday, June 16, before closing on Monday, September 1.
- The Premier League's decision to adopt the same window as other European leagues ensures that clubs like Manchester City and Chelsea don't have an advantage and aligns with the aim to close the summer window at the end of August, with the intention of maintaining order within the global registration system.
