The summer transfer window provided the opportunity for all clubs in the division to bolster their squads ahead of what is looking like will be a highly competitive League One next season. With that in mind, ere are the key dates you need.

When does the summer transfer window open?

The transfer market reopens on Friday, June 10 for English clubs. Out of contract players can move as free agents before the window opens.

It is expected that France's Ligue 1 will follow suit.

What about European Leagues?

The window for Serie A, Bundesliga and La Liga clubs is expected to open on July 1, meaning some international deals may not go through until then. A good example being Erling Haaland's move from Borussia Dortmund to Manchester City.

When is deadline day?

The window is expected to close on Monday, 1 September at 11pm. That gives EFL clubs an 83 day period to get deals done.
