When the January transfer window closes and how long Leeds United have left to complete deals

With the delayed start to this season’s summer window, the January market has been quieter than usual but there are still deals to get over the line.

Leeds United are yet to bring any new players to the club, but have allowed a few to depart on loan deals.

Jordan Stevens (Bradford), Ryan Edmondson (Northampton) and Robbie Gotts (Salford) have all left on temporary deals this month until the end of the season, but even with outgoings nobody has left Elland Road on a permanent basis.

Given their busy summer window, the club were never planning to be active this month, with subsequent loan exits the most likely movement between now and deadline day.

Clubs across the Premier League out to improve their squad ahead of the deadline which is fast approaching as the month comes to a close.

Here's all the information you need on the start and end of the January window.

When does the January window open?

The winter transfer window opened for business on January 4, 2021.

When does the January window close?

The window will close on February 1, 2021 at 11pm.

This will enable clubs to complete countless deals, with the closure of the window pushed back a little due to the fact that January 31 is a Sunday.

Loan deals also tend to punctuate the January window, with out-of-favour players often seeking first-team minutes elsewhere. This season, those decisions may be impacted by a congested calendar, however.

Is there an extended window for loan and EFL clubs?

No. Unlike in October, there is no extra time allocated for trading between the Premier League and the EFL.
