GFF transfer window closes on January 31

The transfer window for players registered with the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) Elite League, nine Regional Associations and the Women’s Football Association (WFA) will close on January 31.

The window opened on January 1, giving coaches attached to 130 clubs an opportunity to bolster their squads at the start of the 2023 season.

The nine Regional Association Senior Men Leagues, the ongoing Women Development League and the recently concluded One Guyana President’s Cup tournament provided a national platform for senior male and female players to impress scouts and coaches ahead of the transfer window.

The GFF, in a press release, explained: “Associations and clubs have been reminded that in order to be considered procedurally correct, all transfers must involve and have the full agreement of the former club, the player, the former regional association, the new club, and the new regional association – in the case of a transfer from one association to another.”

“Players attached to the GFF Elite League clubs and associations have two weeks left to decide which club they will represent in the new season. Clubs will be hoping to hold on to their top players during this window as coaches look to strengthen their defence.”

“The Guyana Football Federation 2023 agenda focuses on players having more on field time in local leagues and tournaments in preparation for regional and international competitions.”
