Premier League chief Richard Masters says the transfer window will open at the end of the season.

The summer period for signing new players usually opens on July 1, but after the confirmation that the campaign will not begin again until June 17, it is clear the season will not be over by then.

Premier League clubs earmarked the weekend of July 25-26 for the end of the season.

While speaking to Football Daily, Masters was asked about the transfer window: "That's one of the topics we are discussing. We have had, I would say, first day discussions about it but no conclusions yet.

"You have a movable feast with lots of different European leagues beginning and ending at different times.

"There's a judgement call to be made and we'll get to that in the next couple of weeks."

Masters was then asked about the transfer window coinciding with the rest of the season and replied: "I suspect that isn't going to be the case.

"The transfer window will open after the end of the season, it's just a question of how long it goes on for."
