Premier Soccer League transfer window opens today

The domestic football transfer window opens today and the Premier Soccer League (PSL) is expecting clubs to start registering players this morning.

The transfer window closes annually on 31 August but because that day falls on a weekend, and the NSL Rules dictate that registrations can only be done in working hours, this year’s transfer window will close on Friday, 30 August 2013 at 5pm.

PSL General Manager of Football, Derek Blanckensee said: “From our side, we are ready for the transfer window. As is normally the case we are expecting a slow start with activity increasing markedly as the deadline approaches. Technologically our systems compare favourably with any others around the world and our staff are experienced in carrying out the necessary checks.

He added: “What is important for us is to ensure that we process all the documentation for the players who will participate in the Absa Premiership fixtures on the opening weekend.”
