The European Leagues is pleased to share its annual overview of the exact closing dates and times of the Winter Transfer Window 2026 across all member leagues.
As the winter transfer window 2026 approaches its final days across most European markets, European Leagues publishes its Winter Transfer Window Countdown, providing a clear and transparent overview of the closing dates and times for member leagues across Europe.
As always, closing times refer to the deadline for signing and registering incoming players, not for their sale. The deadline for outgoing transfers depends on the closing time of the transfer window in the country of the incoming club. As a result, transfers to leagues with later deadlines can still take place even if the selling club’s domestic transfer window has already closed.
This year, most leagues will close their winter transfer window on 2 February, while other leagues may close their markets at a later date, depending on their domestic calendars and regulations.
This overview focuses exclusively on European Leagues member competitions, offering clubs, media and stakeholders a clear and reliable picture of the European transfer market landscape.
