Unless Byram is off have to consider that RB is now sorted for If he is 80% of the player he used to be he would be a welcomed addition to the side and a big character who won't lose the head when we go down (how many times have we conceded 2/3 goals in quick succession)
The handbook actually says the window opens on the first day after the end of the season OR a date determined by the highups. (I may be paraphrasing...)
The 1 July is often assumed because contracts typically run until end June so players can't officially sign until then.
As for 'after last day of season' or another day as determined by the local football authorities .... I think the former is from the Fifa rule for the earliest the summer window can open.
I wasn't aware that the powers that be has set another date...
Yes i just read that and another site which states 09/06 as the start of the transfer window but other sites still state 01/07 ;hmm .I think you are probably right (again ;whistle).
We were probably in negotiations a couple of months ago. Made it clear that should he decide to move on (or no contract offer incoming) we'd love him to sign.
Credit where it's due as Sully and Slav have deservedly taken stick for last summers transfer shambles.
We wanted a right back, we wanted him to have premiership or similar level experience and so ready to go, and we wanted them to act quickly and spend what it takes. I would imagine Zab had a few offers and so it's likely for him to commit so quickly we made him a significant offer.
Good work Sully and Slav ( never sure who to congratulate or blame the most )

His contract is up in June, so he is free to make other arrangements.
