Open Extended ReactionsThe transfer market keeps soccer fans engaged during the offseason, but it has its own rhythms and cycles. You initially get a flurry of activity when the market opens, which was on June 16 this summer. Booking a transfer fee before accepting season ends can help make your numbers look better if you overspent during the year. You don't have the same urgency, because you know there are another six weeks to go until the end of the transfer window. So if you're hungry for deals and transfers, don't fret.
