Every Championship deal completed so far in transfer window - including Portsmouth, QPR and Burnley signings
All the confirmed deals so far from the 24 clubs in the EFL Championship.
It's just under a week since the winter transfer window opened for Championship clubs, but teams have already been proactive in the market.
Pompey weren't expected to make any signings until the middle of the month, but last week they secured the loan signing of centre back Rob Atkinson from Bristol City. The 26-year-old hadn't played competitive football for the Robins for almost two-years, but he was thrown straight in for his debut against Sunderland at the Stadium of Light on Sunday (January 5).
More signings are expected to arrive at Fratton Park over the next few weeks. The News understands that Pompey are targeting three more arrivals, with an emphasis on signing players who have Championship experience, or can play a key part in their bid for survival.
The busiest team in the Championship so far is Burnley, who have signed two players. Peruvian international Oliver Sonne joined on a four-and-a-half-deal from Silkeborg on December 31. Two days later, Ashley Barnes returned to Turf Moor after his contract at Norwich City was cancelled by mutual consent. The Canaries replaced Barnes by signing Lewis Dobbin on loan from Aston Villa after his loan at West Brom was cancelled.
There have been some deals among Championship clubs. Lewis Gibson was sold by Plymouth Argyle to Preston North End, despite the Pilgrims not having a permanent manager to make that decision. They did break their transfer record though to sign Michael Baidoo for an undisclosed club-record fee from Elfsborg however.
Another team to break their transfer record this month is Oxford United, who have signed Ole Romeny from FC Utrecht. He had scoed twice in 13 games in the Dutch top-flight this season, and his arrival meant that Will Goodwin would depart the Kassam Stadium and join Wigan Athletic for the remainder of the campaign.
The 2025 winter transfer window officially closes on Monday February 3 at 11pm UK time, leaving clubs plenty of time to get some deals done. With that in mind, here’s a look at every deal done in the Championship so far this January.
