Focus Forum: What's it like to move in the transfer window?

Football clubs have one last chance to strengthen their squads on Friday before the transfer window shuts at 23:00 BST.

Transfer deadline day traditionally prompts a frenzy of activity - but you will be able to keep up to date with all the ins and outs with the BBC.

We will bring you extensive coverage of all the transfers across television, radio, online and the Red Button.

Clubs can make permanent and loan signings until the window closes. Here's how you can keep up to date with deadline day on the BBC:

From 09:00 BST the BBC Sport website will feature a full live transfer deadline day text commentary, running through until 00:00 BST.

We will aim to bring you all the transfer news, including the latest rumours, breaking stories and confirmed deals from the BBC's team of reporters and correspondents in television, radio and online across the UK and Europe.

The live rolling news service will also feature graphics showing all the day's transfers and the latest tweets, as well as coverage of the latest news conferences.

And from 15:00 BST on the Red Button, Football Focus presenter Dan Walker will give hourly updates with football experts and journalists as they react to the latest transfer news.

You can tune into the BBC News Channel throughout the day for the latest sports news bulletins. At 17:30 BST Martin Keown will be looking at the day's biggest moves while a 30-minute transfer deadline Football Focus Special will air at 18:30 BST and 22:30 BST featuring Dan Walker, Robbie Savage, Martin Keown, Guy Mowbray and Richard Conway.

Richard Conway will also present a round-up of the day's deals at 23:30 BST.

We will also have contributions from reporters at Manchester City, Liverpool and Tottenham as well as BBC Sport journalists working in the BBC Sport Centre.

On Saturday a special Football Focus will start at the earlier time of 11:30 BST, with a transfer round-up at the start of the show covering the main moves on deadline day with guests Mark Lawrenson and Martin Keown.

Radio 5 live will be there to update listeners with all the breaking transfer deadline day activity from 06:10 BST.

Colin Murray hosts an extended 5 live Sport from 19:00 BST on Friday, joined by Pat Nevin and Perry Groves, and they will incorporate the latest transfers into their Kicking Off show, which runs through until the deadline at 23:00 BST.

If you are out and about you can also follow the latest news on your mobile devices and through Twitter using the hashtag #bbcfootball.

It promises to be an interesting day...
