With the summer transfer window providing a plethora of activity over the last 10 weeks, supporters will be keen to know what time all deals must be completed.
As ever, clubs in Italy’s elite soccer division will be frantically trying to conclude last minute signings. The clock is very much ticking with a number of players scrambling to determine their futures.
Many teams will have already concluded their arrivals and departures well before deadline day. However, some will leave it right up to the last minute to get their deals signed off.
What Time Does The Summer Transfer Window Close In Serie A?
The 2025-26 Serie A transfers have seen a number of key arrivals and departures over the last two-and-a-half months. All of the top sides in Italy have made a number of strong additions.
And the same can be applied for the league’s newcomers. In fact, every team has been extremely active but what time does the summer transfer window close for top-flight sides?
Clubs in Serie A, the English Premier League, EFL, LaLiga, Bundesliga and Ligue 1 have until 8pm CEST (2pm EST) on September 1 to complete their activity.
It’s worth noting that teams will still be able to sign free agents after the window has shut. They must be completely unattached and have no association with another team.
