What a load of bollocks! These Premier League muppets want to change the summer transfer window dates? What are they playing at?!
Premier League clubs discuss changing summer transfer window dates
Last summer, the transfer window was open from June 14 until August 30, which was two weeks after the season had already kicked off. Now, these geniuses want to close the window on August 14 instead, just two days before the 2025/26 season starts. Brilliant idea, lads!
Push-back expected from Premier League clubs
Of course, there's going to be push-back from some of the clubs. The German and Italian leagues are expected to stick with their September 1 deadline, and let's not forget about the bloody Saudi Arabia transfer market lurking in the shadows.
Vote to decide the outcome
A vote is set to take place, with a super-majority of 14 clubs needed for the proposal to pass. But if there's even a whiff of little support, the vote might not even happen. Typical footy politics, innit?
Premier League clubs spent big last summer
Last summer, Premier League clubs splashed around £2 billion on new signings, which was actually a decrease from the nearly £2.4 billion spent in 2023. Chelsea were the biggest spenders, coughing up around £220 million, followed by Manchester United with approximately £206 million and Brighton with £192 million.
Premier League clubs set to spend big again
Despite the insane amounts of money being thrown around, it looks like Premier League clubs are ready to spend close to £2 billion once again this summer. But hey, they might make some of that back by selling off some of their top talents to the Saudi Pro League, right?
In the end, these clubs will do whatever the hell they want, regardless of what us fans think. It's all about the money, mate. The beautiful game has turned into a bloody cash cow, and it's only getting worse. PATHETIC!
