Premier League rejects Football Association’s plans to restrict number of foreign players post-Brexit
The Premier League has rejected the Football Association’s plans to reduce the number of foreign players in the English top-flight after Brexit.It has been reported that the FA are pushing for a quota of 13non-homegrown players per Premier League club even if Brexit doesn’t happen.

3The FA want to strengthen Gareth Southgate’s England sideIt is understood that the FA’s proposal over restricting the number of non-homegrown players was met by some initial resistance from top-flight clubs when it was brought up by chief executive Martin Glenn during last week’s Premier League shareholders’ meeting in London.Wednesday’s statement from the Premier League stressed a consensus for the status quo. Currently non-European players require Governing Body Endorsement, meaning a number of African, Asian and South American talents have failed to get work permits.The current Brexit no-deal solution would see GBE applied for European players as well. The system is run by the FA with Home Office approval and research shows 65 per cent of the Premier League’s current European players would not have made it through GBE.
3FA chief executive Martin Glenn has reportedly suggested a quote on foreign playersThe Premier League statement read: “We currently operate rules that limit the number of non-homegrown players clubs can have in senior squads, while also working with clubs to operate a world-leading player development system which delivers for England teams at every level.“This was demonstrated by the many Premier League club academy and senior players whom FA coaches moulded so well into Under-17 and Under-20 FIFA World Cup winners and men’s FIFA 2018 World Cup semi-finalists.“We approach this matter in the interests of British football as a whole and have held positive discussions with the EFL and the Scottish Professional Football League, who both agree that Brexit should not be used to weaken playing squads in British football, nor to harm clubs’ ability to sign international players. “The three league bodies also recognise that the development pathway for young British players needs to be further enhanced and are committed to finding ways of achieving this across all professional clubs.”The “global interest in the Premier League” and the “wider positive impact on the UK” of its continued success was also highlighted.“Our competition is watched in 189 countries, 700,000 visitors to the UK per season attend a match, clubs employ 12,000 full-time staff and Premier League football generates 3.3bn per season in taxes,” the Premier League statement added.“We have a positive working relationship with The FA and will continue to have constructive discussions with them, and other stakeholders.”
