Is it different in any of Europe’s other major leagues?

In Germany, Italy and Spain, the summer transfer window only opened on Friday 1 July.

This, however, is the only difference between these three leagues and the continent’s two other major domestic competitions, the Premier League and France’s Ligue 1.

The transfer window closes on Wednesday 31 August in all of Europe’s major leagues.
