While Tuesday night marks the close of the transfer window in most of the world’s major leagues, South Africa has taken advantage of a FIFA ruling that allows individual leagues to extend the window by three weeks if they so desire.
Fifa rules state a transfer window cannot last more than 16 weeks in a calendar year, and the Premier Soccer League has had its off-season window open from July 1 and will close it on September 21 at 5pm local time for a total of 12 weeks. This adds to the four weeks that the window was opened in January this year.
While most of the transfer business has likely been done, clubs still have time to adjust their squads for the rest of the campaign.
This is how the July-September transfer market has gone so far:
