Premier League clubs have strict rules to follow when completing player transfers, particularly on deadline day when deals are often concluded in the final hours.
Here is how clubs complete and register transfers before the window closes, according to a post obtained from Premier League’s X handle on Wednesday
Deal sheet
The deal sheet is an important tool for clubs completing transfers close to the deadline. It allows a club to confirm that an agreement has been reached while giving it additional time to submit the remaining paperwork.
For an 11pm deadline, a deal sheet can be submitted from 9pm and must arrive before the transfer window closes. Once submitted, the club has until 1am to provide the full documentation.
