Sport Arena assesses personnel migration in the top division of domestic professional football during the 2023/24 winter break
Notes. The table shows the transitions that took place bold, probable – ordinary; teams are not allocated if the player has already definitely left his previous team, but has not yet signed a contract with the new one that he came to for trial or fell into the sphere of its interests; s/a – free agent; head – ended his career; ar. – rent; v/ar. – return from rental; tr. – put up for transfer; zak. – end of contract. New transitions are highlighted in blue.
The marking after the club indicates the leagues that it represents (D1 – Premier League and major leagues of other countries, D2 – First League and similar leagues of other countries, D3 – Second League and similar leagues of other countries, AAFU – Amateur League of Ukraine , amnesty – regional championships and other minority amateur competitions (PFL – forced suspension of performances by clubs).
This is the eleventh edition of the transition table (the tenth is here). Let us remind you that on March 12, 2024, the second transfer period ended – in the future, only additional applications of free agents are possible.
