The summer transfer window could stay open until JANUARY. Football authorities are discussing proposals because the coronavirus could see all fixtures delayed for months.
That will cause havoc for the transfer market with the window due to be open in July and August this summer for the Premier League and EFL clubs.
But Mirror Sport understands that EFL clubs have already discussed extending the window until next year with the Premier League also looking at alternatives.
Big money deals are likely to be put on hold, players who are out of contract on June 30 face uncertain futures and no-one is sure when football will start again, let alone the transfer market.
