The deadline for January transfer window is approaching, making it challenging for teams to make new signings.
The transfer window has been fairly calm, especially in the Premier League, due to financial fair play regulations that have resulted in teams keeping their squads relatively unchanged.
However, there have been instances of last-minute excitement in January before. With numerous ongoing title battles across Europe, it is possible that some elite clubs may choose to make further investments.
Of interest, too, will be the fate of those based in or targeted by the Saudi Pro League, with Jordan Henderson’s move to Ajax one of the highest-profile deals of the window so far.
Here is all the information you need.
When is the deadline for the January transfer window in England?
The deadline for transfers for men’s teams in England is on Thursday, February 1st, with the window closing at 11pm GMT.
What about Scotland?

What about the remaining parts of Europe?

What is the status of the WSL?
Football clubs in the WSL were given until 11pm GMT on Wednesday, January 31st to finalize any transactions.
