"Transfer window extended" - The F.A.

The Football Association has extended the transfer window over and above the 5pm deadline.

This clause has been set in place for clubs finding it difficult in getting the necessary player(s) in for either medicals or agreements due to the weather situation.

This clause only applies for clubs that have transfer dealings already going through, and not for any club trying to sign a player at the last minute.

This begs the question....how do the German clubs always sign their players in time?
