When is transfer deadline day in Scotland? What time does window close? What Celtic & Rangers fans should know Glasgow World

There are only a few hours until the January transfer window closes,

and Celtic and Rangers may yet be able to strike deals as they attempt to bolster their teams.

With the Ibrox side five points behind the Hoops,

Philippe Clement will be hoping that this window can provide his squad a much

-needed lift as they look to reduce the gap by the end of May.

Celtic have only signed one permanent player this transfer season, Nicolas Kuhn,

while the Gers have yet to sign anyone permanent.

They are, however, hopeful of landing two last-minute Brazilian deals,

while Jose Cifuentes has yet to secure his loan contract out of Glasgow,

with a £2 million add-on option apparently in the works.

With just a few hours till the conclusion of the January transfer window,

here’s everything you need to know…

When does the transfer window close?

The January transfer window will close on Thursday, February 1st at 11 p.m.,

the same as in England. This is not the same in all countries.

While Spain’s transfer window closes at the same time as England’s,

French teams must complete their agreements by 10 p.m. The German window shuts at 5 p.m.,

and Italian transfers must be completed by 7 p.m.

Can deals be standardized?What happens after the deadline?
If a transfer is agreed upon between the two teams late in the day,

the league may provide additional time to complete and submit the necessary papers.

A deal sheet can be forwarded to the authorities to show that an agreement has been reached,

and the clubs are given an extra two hours to finish the final documentation.
