Premier League chiefs ‘could cut the winter transfer window to just TWO weeks’

Premier League Chiefs are considering changing the data for both the winter and summer transfer windows.

Only a few days after the most recent window has come to an end, there are now constant discussions about changing both windows in England – which will be placed on all 20 clubs.

According to the Telegraph, competition heads first want to reduce the winter window to just two weeks.

The outlet claims that the suggestion is a goal to minimize disruption of managers and their squadrons as soon as the games begin.

In the meantime, competition heads are also considering terminating the summer transfer window before the start of the competition season.

The summer window, in 2018 and 2019, was closed prior to the start of the season, but that was quickly changed in accordance with other European competitions.

The outlet further reported that the proposals in a meeting on Thursday to the sporting directors were set of all 20 Premier League.

Club owners will now decide whether the proposal should be voted.

Premier League clubs spent more than £ 2 billion on the two transfer windows of the 2024-25 season, with a surprise side unveiled as the largest overall spender.

In recent years, the wealth of the English top flight has grown faster than competitions around the world, which means that Premier League clubs can be considerable on the transfer market.

Lavish spending is no longer just the domain of 'Big 6' clubs, instead the will of Aston Villa, Newcastle and West Ham are very able to deduct various large signing sessions per season.

There is no better example of this point than the best spending club of the 2024-25 campaign: Brighton. The seagulls spent £ 231.4 million, according to figures from football financing expert Kieran Maguire, to 25 arrivals in the two windows.

Brighton supported the new boss Fabian Hurzeler in the summer and brought in a large number of new faces, including Georginio Rutter, Yankuba Minth and Matt O'Reilly. Their winter window was relatively quieter, but that did not stop them from signing the young Greek striker Stefanos Tzimas for £ 20 million.
