Football Transfer Betting Odds & Markets

There are a lot of different ways to get into football betting, including football transfer betting. This is especially the case as players and managers tend to move around in football more than any other sport. Read on for our exclusive talkSPORT BET guide on transfer window betting, from how to place these types of wagers to which specific types are usually available.

How to Bet on Football Transfers

Football transfer window betting is a type of outright betting where wagers are placed on a player or manager's future destination. For example, betting on which club a player will go to next. It's also possible to wager on a player or manager staying with their current club.

Transfer Windows

There are two different transfer window betting opportunities in a calendar year: winter transfer betting runs from the 1st until the 31st of January. Meanwhile, summer transfer betting typically occurs from either the second Saturday of June (or July 1st in some leagues) until the 1st of September.

Premier League Transfer Betting

Premier League transfers are completed in order to move a player from one club to another. The buying club pays the selling club an agreed-upon transfer fee to obtain the player in question. A combination of a transfer fee and a player from the buying team is also permitted during these exchanges. 

Premier League transfer betting can involve many potential transactions. For example, placing a £50 transfer bet at 3/1 odds on a player from Manchester United to transfer to Arsenal.

Popular Football Transfer Bets

There are a few different football transfer bets to choose from including:

  • Next Club Transfer: The most popular form of player transfer betting. Simply wager on a player to move to a specific club by the end of the transfer window.
  • Next Club Signing: A similar type of transfer betting to next club transfer betting. It involves betting on a player to move to a club, instead of betting on a club to buy a specific player as its next transfer.
  • Most Club Signings: A more elusive variety of outright transfer betting. Wager on which club will undergo the most transfers by the end of the window.
  • Loan Deals: Betting on a player to be loaned to a club for a specific period of time. Unlike a transfer, a loan is not permanent.
  • Managerial Transfer: Wagering on a football manager to join a new club during the transfer window. Managerial transfers do not require a transfer fee like player transfers, but an agreement must still be reached.

Football Transfer Betting Odds

Football Transfer Betting Odds, like most football outright markets, are typically displayed as fractional odds. For example, if a Manchester United player's transfer betting odds of joining Arsenal were 4/1, a successful £10 wager would net a £40 return.

Frequently Asked Questions

The football transfer window is a designated period where players can move between club teams. Transfer windows slightly vary between leagues, but there's a summer transfer window and a winter transfer window each year. The buying club must give the selling club some form of compensation during the exchange. This can include money, which is called a 'transfer fee,' or a combination of money and other players.
Football transfer odds are determined by a sportsbook's oddsmakers. Each sportsbook has proprietary algorithms, which oddsmakers use to ensure all football transfer odds are competitive but fair.
A football player can transfer to a new club twice per year. The first window occurs throughout the entire month of January. The second window starts in either early June or July 1st, depending on the league. Premier League football player transfers begin on the second Saturday of June and end on September 1st.
Yes, a player has the power to both stop and/or request a transfer. If two teams agree on a football transfer, the player still has the power to veto the move. Conversely, a player can request a transfer prior to the end of their contract. Usually, this is done when a player wants to move to another club. By submitting a transfer request, that player is essentially inviting other teams to make offers.
The most expensive football transfer fee in history came back in August 2017 between Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona. Star forward Neymar was purchased from Barcelona by PSG for £190 million.
