Premier League clubs will discuss moving the date of the summer transfer window to before the season starts.

Last summer’s market was open from June 14 until August 30, with the latter date coming two weeks after the season started.

All 20 clubs will discuss the idea of closing the window on August 14 instead in a meeting on Thursday.

This would come two days before the start of the 2025/26 season.

talkSPORT understands there will be push-back from Premier League clubs with the German and Italian leagues expected to stay with a September 1 transfer deadline.

A vote is set to decide the outcome of the proposal, with a super-majority of 14 clubs needed for it to pass.

However, if there is an early sense that there will be little support for the change, then a vote may not even take place.

Premier League sides are set to meet with the idea mapped out last month amongst the 20 clubs’ sporting directors.
