**Ivory Coast Opens Winter Transfer Window Ahead of New Season**
The Ivorian Football Federation (FIF) has officially opened the winter transfer window as clubs prepare for the upcoming domestic season, expected to kick off at the end of November.
Running from Monday, October 19, until January 8, 2016, the transfer period provides an opportunity for Ivorian clubs to adjust their squads ahead of the second half of the season. Clubs participating in continental competitions, including the CAF Champions League and CAF Confederation Cup, are expected to be particularly active as they seek reinforcements to strengthen their chances on the African stage.
The window comes at a critical time for clubs aiming to balance domestic performance with continental ambitions, and managers are expected to be strategic in their acquisitions and departures.
