Mailsport says, against a backdrop of its newsroom, the Transfer Deadline Special features real-time, live-updating graphics, including a bespoke ticker, rotating leaderboards and state of the art stats panels, interspersed with live studio shows airing across the two days, with VTs and reporter-fronted live links.

Breaking transfer news graphics are updated instantaneously and MailSport’s team of reporters are providing live updates into the shows from locations around the country and from the MailSport newsroom, as the clock ticks down to the close of the 2023 Summer transfer window.

The 4 x 60-minute live shows are being presented by MailSport transfer specialists, Sami Mokbel, Charlotte Daly and Craig Hope and were broadcast at 12.30pm and 5pm yesterday and again today (Friday 1 September), added the publisher.

In keeping with the It’s All Kicking Off vodcast brand, regular presenters Ian Ladyman and former Premier League winner and England international centre forward Chris Sutton, are also joining the action.

Global publisher of sport, Lee Clayton, said: “We have experts at breaking news, especially around transfer stories, and this is the next step to pivoting our business into a digital space.

“Craig, Charlotte and Sami are important members of our team and can reflect the drama and tension of transfer deadline day.

“It’s the football equivalent of Christmas Day and we hope we can deliver lots of goodies to our audiences across multi-platform.”
