"Very difficult for everyone"
Transfer deadline “absolutely inappropriate” for Hasenhüttl
VfL Wolfsburg coach Ralph Hasenhüttl would like to see an earlier end to the transfer deadline in international professional soccer. In his opinion, player transfers should only be possible before the start of a new season.
He considers the deadline at the end of August to be "absolutely inappropriate", said the Styrian at his press conference for the Bundesliga match at Holstein Kiel on Saturday.
"Very difficult for all coaches"
"I don't think it would change anything if we ended the whole story a month earlier. Then you might have a few weeks in which you can work with your team and then know on the first matchday: this is your squad," Hasenhüttl explained. But that is "very difficult for all coaches".
However, Hasenhüttl can only imagine shortening the transfer window "if all other leagues do the same", said the former coach of Premier League club Southampton. "We once had the situation in England where we closed early and everyone else still had the transfer window open. That was a disaster because the players ran away from us one after the other."
