List of English football transfers summer 2012

Transfers

All players and clubs without a flag are English. Although Cardiff City and Swansea City are associated with the Welsh flag, they play in the Championship and the Premier League (of England) respectively, and so transfers related to them and another non-English club are included.

Transfers involving Major League Soccer clubs in the United States and Canada technically have the league as the second party and not the listed club. MLS player contracts are owned by the league and not by individual clubs.

• • Signed permanently on 1 July
• ** Signed permanently on 15 June.
• *** Signed officially on 13 July.
