Join us as we speak with Kevin Hatchard, writer, broadcaster, and European football expert, to uncover the secrets behind the scenes of a transfer window. Discover the key players involved, the intricate steps required to finalise a deal, and the heart-stopping moments that can lead to a multi-million-pound transfer collapsing at the last minute.
Natalie recounts some behind-the-scenes dramas in the Sky Sports News newsroom. She shares her experience presenting 18 years of Transfer Deadline Day broadcasts, during which the entire nation was captivated by the events unfolding on their television screens.
We’ll ask some thought-provoking questions: Could football benefit from insights derived from other sports, such as the NBA? Should players have more control over their careers and potential transfers? Could a draft system enhance competitiveness across leagues worldwide?
This episode is vital listening for any football fan eager to understand the inner workings of the transfer market.
