August 31: Most important Day in Football Calendar?

Today is August 31, the final day of the summer transfer window in European club football. Some call it the most important day of the European football calendar with a number of clubs frantically trying to get transfers done before the midnight deadline when the transfer window closes until the winter transfer window in January.



While some clubs hope to lure their targets from other clubs at the last moment, there are other clubs who are looking to strengthen their squads after weak starts to their campaigns in their domestic leagues, while others are trying to offload excess players from their roaster and wage bills.



Friends who are Director of Sports, managers and agents say these are the busiest days of the year; then even clubs who have settled teams sometimes can suddenly be forced to look for options due to injuries or other reasons.



And if one follows those running tickers of major football websites and newspapers it is often really interesting and sometimes even surprising what kind of deals go through at the last moment.



So enjoy the day and follow the transfers...
