The "window" mentioned in the title is the transfer window in which football players all over the world are bought and sold, with astronomical sums currently being paid, especially by Saudi Arabian clubs. This TV series shows how these transfer negotiations work, or should take place. The fighting is extremely tough in the truest sense of the word, and contract killings are not shied away from.
The focus of the TV series is 17-year-old soccer player Jordan Burdett, a talent that European clubs are vying for. His brother Kieran acts as his agent, but that's also what the shady Romulus Daglis wants, who doesn't seem to shy away from anything. But it's about much more, it's about claims to power over the management of the fictional English Super League and the English Football Association, about billion-dollar television broadcasting rights, and both men and women are involved, such as the ice-cold Harriet Sarratova, the sexist Martin Dewsbury and the opaque one Korean multimillionaire Jae-Yeon Cho. The young journalist Esther Birch swims in this shark tank and tries to uncover the machinations, putting her own life in danger.
It's an exciting series with many twists and sets up many lines for future stories.
