Transfer deadline day: When the window slams shut around Europe

JOE

As transfer windows go, January 2016 hasn’t yet exploded into life.

There’s been relatively little activity thus far, as clubs choose to keep their powder dry and play a canny game of bluff and double-bluff.

We know that English clubs are working to a deadline of 11pm on February 1, but what about the major leagues around the continent?

Both France and Italy have set the same deadline as England, whilst Germany have granted their clubs some extra time on Tuesday, with their window closing at 5pm on February 2.

Spain had initially intended to cease business 24 hours earlier than the Premier League at 11pm on January 31, but have now decided to follow suit and allow the extra day.

With the knockout stages of the Champions League on the horizon, below are the deadlines for each nation’s clubs to submit their finalised squads for the recommencement of the competition.
