Every completed Championship deal in the 2025 winter transfer window
For many, the Championship is the best league in the world – and with good reason. Once again this year at the halfway stage, we have a title tussle, an unclear play-off picture and a frantic fight to avoid the drop.
More excitement is set to come the way of fans of second-tier clubs as the January transfer window opens for business. Running until 11pm on Monday 3rd February, it is a chance for all 24 teams to bolster their ranks ahead of the critical stages of the campaign.
The likes of Leeds United and Sheffield United are set to scrap for the Championship title, though Burnley are hot on their heels looking to steal an automatic promotion slot for themselves.

Winter transfer window 2025: All the latest deals from England and Scotland
Find out who is on the move this winter with our comprehensive list of done deals from the Premier League, EFL and Scottish Premiership.
Sunderland look set to return to the play-offs under Regis Le Bris provided they can sustain their promising start, while surprise package Watford could yet upset perennial contenders such as West Bromwich Albion for a top-six slot.
At the other end, Plymouth Argyle look doomed, so may require some inspired business over the next month, while newbies Oxford United and Portsmouth are among those battling for Championship survival after testing returns to the second tier.
Here, we have every in and out from each Championship club throughout the winter window.

Burnley
Total spent: £2.5m
Scott Parker’s Burnley have been the most active side in the Championship early on in the window, with two incomings in the first couple of days.
One is a familiar face in Ashley Barnes, who re-joined the club after ending his contract at Norwich. The Austria international is something of a promotion specialist, so could be a handy addition to Parker’s side.
The other arrival has seen Denmark-born Peruvian Oliver Sonne join from Danish outfit Silkeborg in a deal worth around €3m (£2.5m). The full-back bolsters a Clarets defence that has conceded just nine goals in the Championship all season.

Norwich City
Total spent: £0
Norwich City are yet to welcome any new arrivals this January, but have seen two players depart Carrow Road.
Ashley Barnes recently agreed to end his contract by mutual consent as he sealed a return to former club Burnley, while Christian Fassnacht has secured a move to Young Boys, who are currently struggling in the Swiss top flight and the Champions League.
The Canaries’ form has been up and down so far, and thus sit in mid-table at the halfway point. They are not a million miles off the play-off places, and a fresh injection into the squad may help stage a surge into the top six.
