transfer window
Player exchange season
A transfer window is the designated period when professional sports clubs can buy, sell, or loan players between teams.
Most prominent in European football (soccer), leagues typically have two windows per year—a longer one in summer and a shorter one in winter.
The club made three signings before the transfer window closed.
Outside this period, player movement between clubs is generally prohibited.
